CHAPTER 26 - Chapter 26 Lu Shou Old Man, Who Said You Are th...
You are surprised that the Ghost Doctor Venerable covets your red talent, "You Can't See Me." At the same time, you realize that while he may not dare take your "Supreme Emperor Bone" alone, he is still driven by his own greed.
It is true that the effect of the red skill "You Can't See Me" is powerful and enviable. However, considering your current strength, you have yet to reach the full potential of the skill. If you were at a higher level, you would be a terrifying assassin who could deceive the senses of both gods and humans.
“Alright, but secrets aren’t easily shared. Since you want my method, come here, and I’ll tell you directly. But I hope you’ll keep your promise and let me go afterward,” you say, pretending to hesitate before finally sighing.
You plan to take advantage of the other party's greed. Judging by his earlier behavior, he is extremely arrogant and doesn’t seem to take you seriously. After all, in his eyes, you are just a trapped ant.
"Hehehe, young man from the Lu family, I hope you know the situation and don’t try anything foolish," the Ghost Doctor says coldly, stepping forward.
Just as you expected, his arrogance and disdain mean he doesn’t consider the possibility of you being a threat. Confident in his invincible power, he doesn’t even entertain the idea that you might be up to something. He also has complete faith in the "Sealing Talisman," believing that you can't break free from the restrictions on your body.
But what he doesn’t know is that, under the influence of the "Supreme Emperor Bone," the "seal" on your body is already weakening and can break at any moment.
“Cang Mang Ba Long Fist!”
When the Ghost Doctor approaches you, your spiritual energy explodes. You enter "Superior Mode" once more, breaking free of restrictions and delivering a powerful punch.
Boom!
At the critical moment of life and death, a rush of warm energy surges from your "Supreme Emperor Bone," impacting the realm barrier and pushing you from the peak of the fourth realm of magical powers to the fifth realm of mountains and rivers.
The Mountain and River Realm allows you to borrow the power of the earth beneath you, combining the Yin and Yang energies of heaven and earth. You unleash a mighty punch, using the force of the earth, like a massive Buzhou Mountain. The punch is deafening, suppressing everything in its path.
Even a sixth-level transcendent would have to avoid such a punch. But despite the sheer power behind it, the Ghost Doctor effortlessly catches the blow.
The next moment, you feel a sharp pain as the bones in your right arm snap, twisting painfully.
"I knew you wouldn't give up easily..." The Ghost Doctor grinned wryly.
"Ye Chen, after you kill me, it will be your turn."
You activate your second "Life-Substitution Blood Escape Talisman" and rush toward the Ghost Doctor, clinging to him tightly.
Boom!
“Lu Shou, you’re so ruthless!!!”
Ye Chen, who had been pretending to be dead in the room, suddenly leaps up, stepping forward with force. He breaks through from the fourth level of supernatural power to the seventh level of sainthood in an instant.
A soul fluctuation emanates from Ye Chen’s body as he takes another half step forward, cracking his own body in the process. A faint aura of heaven and man surrounds him as he slaps the Ghost Doctor Venerable with a powerful palm.
“You actually have a second Life-Substituting Blood Escape Talisman. According to intelligence, Lu Shou only gave you one back then,” says the Ghost Doctor, surprised by the attack.
Faced with Ye Chen’s sudden assault, the Ghost Doctor’s demeanor shifts. He is shocked that Ye Chen can still unleash the combat power of a half-step celestial being. What concerns him even more is that Lu Shou still has a "Life-saving Blood Escape Talisman" on him.
With the threat of Lu Shou escaping, the Ghost Doctor knows he’s in big trouble.
“Seal him!” he commands.
Another "forbidden talisman" appears, condensing space shackles to prevent Lu Shou from escaping.
Peng!
As you expected, Ye Chen attacks him from behind with his palm.ghost doctor His body is shaking, but he doesn't seem to be seriously injured.
A sneer appears on the ghost doctor's lips.
“How is that possible?!” Ye Chen exclaims, shocked.
Boom!
A blast of divine energy erupts, shattering Ye Chen’s body. He is sent flying, lying motionless on the ground, with his life in doubt.
“It’s a good idea, but you two kids still underestimate my ‘human body,’” the Ghost Doctor sneers.
“What is a heavenly being? A heavenly being is a half-immortal body. Although it’s not invulnerable, it draws on the blessings of heaven and earth to form a ‘celestial being domain’ that resists harm. As long as the domain isn’t broken, I’m invincible.”
Listening to the Ghost Doctor’s boast, your heart sinks. You realize just how terrifying the heavenly realm is. This sudden attack barely made a dent in his defense.
Su Mei, on the side, is stunned by the aftermath of the battle. You’re grabbed by the neck, lifted violently, and struggle to breathe.
"As expected from the traitor's bloodline," the Ghost Doctor says. "If I were not a third-level celestial being, I might have been very seriously injured just now."
He sneers, but a cold sweat appears on his forehead, betraying his nervousness.
When you hear "third-level heavenly being," you are taken aback. From the way he speaks, it seems that if he were a lower-level heavenly being, he might have been severely wounded just now.
“What do you mean by ‘the bloodline of the person you’re talking about?’”
A sense of realization dawns on you. You begin to understand something important.
Perhaps realizing his slip of the tongue, the Ghost Doctor’s eyes flicker with panic. He immediately falls silent and stops mentioning the topic.
“I wanted to give you a chance,” he says coldly. “But now, I can only search your soul. The memories from a soul search may be incomplete, but it doesn’t matter.”
He shatters your Dantian with a single palm, and your cultivation begins to collapse.
Soon, you’ll be completely useless.
The Ghost Doctor continues his torment, breaking your meridians one by one, his face twisted with cruelty.
"The pain you’re going through is unbearable, worse than death — you can’t hold back your screams."
“You damn little brat,” the Ghost Doctor laughs. “No matter how loudly you scream, no one will come to save you. Who in this entire Demon City dares to challenge me, the only heavenly being?”
Despite the torture, you lift your head. Your face is twisted in pain, exhausted, and you look as if you're standing at death's edge. Yet, as you gaze at the ghostly doctor, you feel that you're still in control — and that you still have a chance to win.
“öhöm....… Old man, who says you’re the only one in the Demon Capital?”
