Chapter 1343

"No, impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Deities had already gone extinct long ago in our era; how could they appear in this age?"

"That's right, there shouldn't be any deities in this era, or rather, they shouldn't appear in the Heavenly Continent!"

"Calm down, perhaps we are taking things too seriously. Maybe it's just some kind of special treasure that happened to isolate our perception!"

The few Immortal Kings transmitted their voices to each other with heavy expressions, and finally, they slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Xu Que used the Divine Spirit Shell to successively set up several illusion arrays, and finally evolved a fake space, hiding countless poisoned blades inside, causing the few Immortal Kings of the Shennong Clan to crash headlong into them.

This was entirely the credit of the Divine Spirit Shell, but this kind of thing also completely exceeded the imagination of those few Immortal Kings.

Sometimes, the more you know, the more afraid you feel!

For cultivators with low realms, the power of the Divine Spirit Shell might not make them feel any apprehension.

But for great experts at the Immortal King Realm, apart from deities, no one could avoid their perception like this; even Immortal Emperors couldn't do it.

That was why they scared themselves at the first moment, thinking that the person exerting power behind the Zha Tian Bang was a deity!

It was only after their analysis that they dismissed this terrifying thought.

In this era, there indeed shouldn't be, and it's impossible for there to be, deities!

There was no reason, but they firmly believed this point!

"Could it be… that kid really has some treasure on him comparable to the might of a deity?" The few Immortal Kings had already removed the blades from their bodies, their gazes sweeping toward the mountain peak not far away, a glimmer of brilliance appearing in their eyes.

These poisoned blades, even if they could injure them, couldn't have any effect!

At their level, even if they were injured, they could instantly recover and heal. Unless it was an overwhelming suppression of strength that ended in a fatal blow, existences at the Immortal King level could almost be said to be comparable to being "undying and indestructible"!

And now, what made their eyes light up was that there might be some divine object on Xu Que that could avoid the perception of Immortal King Realm experts.

For them, this was simply a supreme treasure. If they possessed this item, facing experts of the same rank, it would be enough to form a fatal suppression!

"Come on, come on, hurry up and come!"

"Hurry up and come beat us to death!"

"This Divine Venerable is already hungry and thirsty!"

At the same time, on the mountain peak not far away, Xu Que, along with Duan Jiude and Er Gou, were still shouting loudly.

But this time, the numerous Immortal Kings no longer rushed forward rashly.

With this blade warning, they all began to treat it seriously—not because they were afraid Xu Que had set up another trap to hurt them, but because they felt that if they fell for it again, it would be very embarrassing.

Things shouldn't happen three times; having been tricked by illusions twice in a row, they would not allow a third time.

"Hurry up and come, this time we are real!"

"I, this old man, swear on my character, I'm definitely not lying to you!"

"It's impossible for this Divine Venerable to use the same trick three times. You guys hurry over, let's fight to the death!"

Xu Que and the others started shouting again.

However, the ten Immortal Kings remained unmoved. They had already gathered together, landed on the ground, and focused their gazes, examining the surroundings, attempting to find the possibility of certain restrictions existing in this place, wanting to find clues, and then break them all at once.

But no matter how they looked, it was peaceful outside.

Apart from the increasingly thick evil aura in the air, there was nothing else unusual.

"Wait a minute, no, why are these evil auras all gathering toward us?"

At this moment, the young-looking female Immortal King suddenly spoke up.

The other nine Immortal Kings also noticed it, furrowed their brows, and looked up at the sky.

Existences at their level were not that afraid of evil aura; at least, they could completely ignore this level of evil aura.

But if this evil aura became thick and reached a certain level, even an Immortal King would have to bleed five steps away!

"Heh, it seems… they set up the restriction in the air, using some method to hide the restriction runes. Unfortunately, the flow of these evil auras betrayed them!" An Immortal King sneered immediately.

"Wanting to gather these evil auras to kill us? That's truly wishful thinking!" The elder of the Shennong Clan also laughed, his face full of mockery.

It wasn't that they felt this method wouldn't work—it was precisely because this method was feasible—but if it were discovered early, this method would be useless.

Although the evil aura outside Tian Sha City was vast enough, to reach a concentration level capable of hurting them, it would take a very long time to gather and brew.

During this time, they had plenty of opportunities to avoid it.

In other words, the moment they discovered Xu Que's purpose in gathering the evil aura, as long as they collectively withdrew from this area, Xu Que's plan would be completely shattered, and he would be doing useless work.

"Let's go, there's no need for us to waste time here finding the restriction. Since they want to gather evil aura, we will return to Tian Sha City and capture those accomplices of the Zha Tian Bang; they will naturally have to come back and walk right into the trap." The elder of the Shennong Clan made a prompt decision and chose the best method.

Since they couldn't fight head-on, they would play a tactic of flanking the rear, directly capturing their people to see if they still dared to shout and provoke outside!

However, just as the elder of the Shennong Clan took a step, the expression on his face suddenly changed!

"This… what is going on?"

He shouted in shock, discovering that under his feet, he was being pulled by transparent, crystalline silk threads. He didn't know when this ground had been completely covered by a large net of silk threads!

"Oh no, this thing contains toxins that can invade our bodies, paralyze our flesh, and obstruct the operation of our Immortal Yuan power. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to expel the toxins!" An Immortal King said in a deep voice.

"Heh, a mere trifle!" The elder of the Shennong Clan suddenly sneered, waving his hand to produce a verdant willow branch, and brushed it toward his feet.

Swish!

A glimmer of brilliance flashed, and the few of them instantly regained their freedom. The silk threads under their feet disappeared completely, and the toxins in their bodies were swept away cleanly.

"Old Man Yi, this supreme-grade Immortal Artifact of yours was once hailed as being immune to all methods; it truly is extraordinary!" An Immortal King immediately laughed.

The elder of the Shennong Clan was full of arrogance, sneering: "These ignorant juniors, there are many things they haven't seen before. They really thought that by using these petty tricks, they could trap…"

"Whoosh!"

Before he could finish speaking, a white shadow suddenly shot out from under the elder's feet.

It was an arm condensed entirely of white frost, clenched into a fist, smashing toward the willow branch in the elder's hand with extreme speed and vast power!

"Get lost! You dare to covet this old man's Immortal Artifact?"

The elder was startled at first, but reacted extremely quickly, roaring loudly as the willow branch in his hand bloomed with brilliance, directly lashing out at the fist!

Bang!

Accompanied by a muffled sound, the arm was shaken back, but the willow branch in the elder's hand suddenly dimmed in brilliance!

Following that, only a "crack" was heard, and dense cracks suddenly covered the entire willow branch, which then shattered in response, scattering into a pile of ashes!

"What?"

The elder of the Shennong Clan widened his eyes on the spot, unable to believe it.

The remaining nine Immortal Kings, including everyone in Tian Sha City who witnessed this scene, were all shocked, dumbfounded.

This supreme-grade Immortal Artifact actually shattered?

Smashed by a fist that drilled out from underground?

"No!" At this moment, the elder of the Shennong Clan had already reacted, erupting with a heaven-shaking roar.

This supreme-grade Immortal Artifact was the treasure he used to gallop across the Heavenly Continent back in the day, hailed as being immune to all methods and capable of breaking everything, but now, it was actually smashed by someone with a single punch. It was simply hard to believe.

"Haha, this King of Pretension's Profound Ice Ghost Mist Hand specializes in breaking all kinds of Immortal Artifacts. You actually delivered it to your own door; is there a hole in your brain?"

Xu Que's laughter rang out from underground, incomparably smug and mocking, "Er Gou, Duan Jiude, time to act!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Instantly, three loud bangs in succession exploded three thunderclaps from the ground.

"Three sounds on flat ground, the Zha Tian Bang makes a brilliant debut!" Er Gou shouted loudly, drilling out from the ground, holding a long blade covered in poison, and fiercely stabbing toward the rear end of an Immortal King!

That Immortal King's expression changed; it seemed he hadn't expected Er Gou to drill out from underground to ambush him, and he immediately moved to counterattack!

But the elder of the Shennong Clan suddenly roared angrily: "Ignore it, this is an illusion, their aura is running over there!"
