Chapter 304: A Heart-Piercing Curse to deal with the God of Slaughter Nezha

~8 min read 1,571 words

"Who on earth are you people!"

Wuliang Xianweng realized something was wrong; if Tang An had been sent by Yuanshi Tianzun, how could she have forcibly entered the Yuxu Palace treasury?

But if Tang An were someone coveting the treasury, that didn't make sense either.

For someone coveting the Yuxu Palace treasury, how did she obtain the Three Treasures Ruyi?

Did she manifest into the void and snatch the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi from right beside Yuanshi Tianzun?

No, no, no, absolutely impossible; no matter how one looked at her, she was just a mortal.

But then how to explain that what she held in her hand was indeed the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi?

The brain of the evil peach was nearly burning up, but while he was tangled in his own thoughts, Tang An was already swimming among the schools of fish, gathering piles of treasures in her arms.

"Fellow Daoist, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"I do not believe you went to such great lengths just to find a single treasure that would allow the Mo Wan Nezha and the Spirit Pearl to merge."

"A single one?" Tang An turned her head, "Who are you looking down on?"

"Am I, Tang An, such a petty person?"

"Huh?" Wuliang Xianweng almost couldn't react; was 'petty' a term used like that?

But at a time like this, there was no point in worrying about such details.

"Do you know that my Yuxu Palace treasury is guarded by the four great ancient divine beasts: the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise?"

"Do you truly think that with just the few of you, you can defeat the four ancient divine beasts?"

Tang An grabbed a small fish and was dragged by it, darting wildly all over the treasury.

Nezha stopped pretending, transformed back into his God of Slaughter form, and used his Universe Ring to pull Tang An back.

Yes, Wuliang Xianweng had been talking for a long time, but the three master and disciples hadn't taken him seriously at all.

Mo Wan Nezha didn't know what Tang An and the others were doing, but at a time like this, in this situation, no matter what they wanted to do, he had to help out.

"Master, I, your young master, am here to assist you."

Tang An gave his head a 'smack', "Call me Master, and don't add 'young master' after it."

"Oh~" Mo Wan Nezha rolled his eyes at her, but he wasn't angry. He just muttered speechlessly, "Young master, Master, I'm here to assist you, is that okay?"

"..." Tang An was speechless, "When I go back, I will tell Lady Yin that she must keep a close eye on your schoolwork!"

Mo Wan Nezha cowered in a second, "Don't, Master."

Schoolwork and such things were just too much of a headache!

"Master?" Wuliang Xianweng looked at the master and disciples, only then realizing that this whole affair was entirely orchestrated by Tang An.

Their goal, starting from letting Nezha participate in the Ascension Examination, had been aimed at the Yuxu Palace treasury.

But when did Nezha take this woman as his master? Wasn't his master Junior Brother Taiyi?

"Hey, I can't take credit for being called Master. After all, I've never taught such a poor student." Tang An never let her tongue rest, no matter the occasion.

Wuliang Xianweng's anger rose, "Hmph! Ignorant child, what does it matter if you indulge in sharp words."

He stopped talking nonsense and began chanting the incantation, intending to urge the four great divine beasts to assist in the battle.

"Chirp~"

"Roar~"

The four great divine beasts were activated, all manifesting from the four directions, suppressing the four master and disciples.

"Hahahaha~"

"With just the few of you, you dare to covet my Yuxu Palace treasury. This is the consequence of underestimating me, the..."

The words were not finished; why did the sound stop?

Because the four great divine beasts he was so proud of had only just been activated, appeared to show themselves, and then... they were gone.

They were just gone!

Yang Jian directly revealed the Human Seed Bag and collected the four great divine beasts one by one.

The great battle Wuliang Xianweng had imagined hadn't even begun before it was declared over!

At this very moment, Wuliang Xianweng finally realized what a massive crisis Yuxu Palace was facing.

He could no longer sit and wait for death; he had to reveal his true form to have a chance at fighting back.

Alas, before he could reveal his true form, the two Nezhas surrounded him, one in front and one behind.

"Do it!"

The two of them, one a great God of Slaughter and the other a small God of Slaughter, never liked to waste words when fighting.

Thus, in the Yuxu Palace treasury, two contrasting scenes appeared.

On one side, the two Nezhas were beating up Wuliang Xianweng, who, fearing he would break the treasures of Yuxu Palace, could only defend passively with his hands tied.

On the other side, Tang An held the Diamond Bracelet in one hand and beckoned with the Wealth Gathering Ring in the other.

"Come, come wealth."

"Come, come wealth!"

She even played background music, wiggling her hips as she happily collected treasures.

The feeling of wealth coming in was just too good!

Before her eyes was a treasury as vast as the sea; it was all hers, it was all hers now!

Tang An happily took charge of collecting the Magic Treasures on the left, while Yang Jian held the Human Seed Bag and quickly collected the Magic Treasures on the right.

"No!"

"Smack!"

"Stop this nonsense!"

"Smack! Smack!"

"Ouch." Tang An stopped and gave the two Nezhas a thumbs up, "You two are fighting with such a sense of rhythm; keep fighting, don't stop." Having said that, Tang An continued to collect the Magic Treasures.

Seeing that more than half of the treasures in Yuxu Palace had already disappeared, Wuliang Xianweng was truly anxious.

He no longer cared whether he might shatter the supreme treasures and directly gathered his strength to reveal his burly true form.

"Do you truly believe that I did not detect a single clue?"

"Do you truly believe that my position as the head of the Twelve Golden Immortals was obtained for nothing?"

"I had long since seen through Nezha's immortal body; what I cast upon him was not some Ascension Curse at all, but that Heart-Piercing Curse!"

Yes, he had long since discovered the clues regarding Shashen Nezha.

It was only because if it were truly as Taiyi Zhenren said, that Nezha was transformed from the Spirit Pearl, there would be no way for such dense killing intent to be hidden within him.

To Wuliang Xianweng, a Nezha possessing endless killing intent was nothing more than the best sharp weapon.

Therefore, he did not expose it, nor did he choose to control Mo Wan Nezha, but instead thought to use the Heart-Piercing Curse to control Shashen Nezha for his own use.

After all, one Spirit Pearl as a blade, and one Demon Pill as a whetstone. One immortal and one demon, opposing each other—that was the scene he liked to see.

It is a pity; he was devious enough, had the brains, and knew how to use methods to whitewash his actions.

It is just that he lost because Tang An had the cheat of a god's-eye view, and lost even more to his own greed.

Of all people to target, he should not have targeted Nezha.

After all, that God of Slaughter, not to mention his cultivation realm, just looking at the ruthlessness with which he fights.

He is a ruthless person who would rather suffer ten thousand points of damage himself just to inflict one thousand on the enemy. Even if it meant self-immolation, he would not let the enemy succeed.

"The Heart-Piercing Curse?"

Nezha looked at the thorns growing on his skin, his eyes filled only with cold killing intent, as if he felt no pain at all.

"It is nothing more than this."

For Mo Wan Nezha, that was the pain of skinning and bone-pulling.

But for Nezha, the Heart-Piercing Curse was merely an insignificant little spell.

As he lifted his cold gaze, fierce Samadhi True Fire ignited around his body.

The thorns produced by the Heart-Piercing Curse were instantly burned to ash the moment they touched the Samadhi True Fire.

"You are truly too weak." He had not even used the Six Ding Divine Fire, and his full array of Magic Treasures and the Law of Heaven and Earth had not yet been activated.

Nezha brushed off his clothes, appearing so relaxed and disdainful.

"Come again!"

As he spoke, he flicked the Fire-Tipped Spear up with his toe and charged straight at Wuliang Xianweng.

Wuliang Xianweng was of the wood element and was naturally restrained by fire, let alone the Samadhi True Fire of Shashen Nezha.

He was restrained everywhere and trapped everywhere; it could be said he was beaten miserably, constantly retreating step by step.

Until Tang An finished collecting the treasures of Yuxu Palace.

"Alright, the collection is finished, so there is no need to play with him anymore."

Tang An directly tore open a spatial rift, "It is time to do the real work; there is still a Golden Cudgel that hasn't been taken yet."
