Chapter 140: Chapter 123: The Great Battle Against Damned Zong, Su Xing’s Overt Plot! (Third Update)

Su Xing’s brow furrowed tightly as he saw this.

Damned Zong indeed possessed a peculiar ability, able to sense danger and even pinpoint his location!

And with Su Xing’s strength, defeating Damned Zong head-on was nearly impossible.

“The only plan for now is to hold off Damned Zong, only by holding out until Luo Shuying comes to support can there be a chance to kill him!”

Su Xing felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

From the first time he had met Damned Zong, treated like an ant and almost refined into a Human Pill.

Now, Su Xing finally had the chance to face Damned Zong in direct combat!

Although the odds of winning were slim… Su Xing still wanted to try.

“If it’s a fight you want, then it’s a fight you’ll get! Let’s see just how terrifying a peak Divinity Transformation Cultivator really is!”

Determined, Su Xing looked towards the simulation panel.

[You realize that Damned Zong is coming straight for you, but this time you no longer plan to run away. You diligently adjust your breathing, bringing your body to its optimal state, then extravagantly take out two Spirit Stones to begin restoring your Spiritual Power.]

[You sit cross-legged, eyes closed in meditation, yet constantly aware of Damned Zong’s position. In your senses, the light representing Damned Zong rapidly approaches!]

[At a certain moment, you open your eyes and draw the Ink Ice Sword at your waist, meticulously wiping it.]

[You know that with an opponent like Damned Zong, you absolutely cannot hold back. From the start, you must give it your all! And your biggest trump card is “Three Talents Sword Technique” within the Human Sword!]

[The Human Sword, the sword of a thousand foes! You silently recall this phrase from the Sword Cultivator’s codex, your blood boiling for the upcoming battle, yet you feel not much fear.]

[Your Spirit Sword Mo Bing whispers softly in your hands as if sensing your thoughts.]

[A black dot appears in the distance, rapidly growing larger within your field of vision, eventually stopping a hundred meters in front of you.]

[The person is none other than Damned Zong. The moment he sees you, his eyes reveal surprise, and at the same time, a bit of gratification.]

[Damned Zong sneers without saying much, simply taking out a bone sword and turning into a black streak heading straight toward you.]

[Seeing this, you too channel the Ink Ice Sword in your hand and go forth to meet Damned Zong!]

Seeing this, Su Xing immediately became so angry that he slapped his thigh and complained:

“Dammit, it’s all lies in the novels! Isn’t it said that the villains blabber before starting to fight, only to be defeated because of their blabbering?”

“How come this Damned Zong starts fighting without a word! Is this the real way for a villain to act? Acting ruthlessly and without dawdling…”

Su Xing knew very well that a shrewd old Cultivator like Damned Zong would never drag his feet, which made him feel even more vexed.

He continued to look towards the simulation panel.

[Damned Zong is powerful, his swordsmanship is cruel and outstanding, with each strike being lethal. The mourning from his bone sword seems to carry the resentment of countless souls, constantly assaulting your psyche.]

[Fortunately, your Divine Soul is powerful. Although you are only at the Nascent Soul Stage, your Divine Sense is nearly nine hundred feet. Otherwise, under the bone sword’s soulful assault, you would have instantly become an imbecile.]

[Even so, when battling Damned Zong, you are greatly affected by the bone sword, feeling as if your Divine Sense is being bitten by insects.]

[Enduring the discomfort of your Divine Soul, you wield the Ink Ice Sword in your hand, parrying attacks from Damned Zong.]

[After just over a dozen exchanges, you sense that something is wrong. Damned Zong is not only cruel and unpredictable, but his strength is also no less than yours.]

[You instantly understand that Damned Zong is probably a dual cultivator of both spirit and body, not only at the Great Perfection of the Divinity Transformation Stage, but his Body Refinement Cultivation Level is also likely that of a seasoned Divine Strength Realm powerhouse.]

[But at this moment, you know you have no way out; a single flaw would mean nothing but death.]

[You forcefully swing out a sword strike, driving back Damned Zong, then stretch out your left hand, where a terrifying flame appears in your palm.]

[It’s the Divine Skill, Li Fire Technique!]

[You toss the Li Fire gently, sending it flying toward Damned Zong. At first, Damned Zong wears a cold smile, but upon feeling the terrifying aura from the Li Fire, his expression subtly changes.]

[He seems to recognize the origin of the flame, and his gaze towards you carries a trace of fear.]

[But Damned Zong is not a vegetarian, as a Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouse who has lived for a thousand years, he naturally has some trump cards. He extends his left hand, hidden in his large sleeve, and a black energy assails you!]

[You are shocked at the sight of Damned Zong’s left hand because it seems charred like charcoal, the skin shriveled to the bones, and wholly blackened, coiling with a daunting black energy.]

[The vast black energy from Damned Zong’s hand wraps around your Li Fire almost instantly, the fire flickers, the flames gradually diminishing as if about to be extinguished.]

[Seeing this, you hasten to channel Spiritual Power, continuously infusing Spiritual Energy into the Li Fire. With the influx of Spiritual Energy, the Li Fire slowly starts to resist the black energy’s encroachment and begins to fight back.]

[Damned Zong frowns slightly and then increases his Spiritual Power input, with the black energy once again gaining the upper hand.]

[You refuse to show weakness, continuing to desperately infuse Spiritual Energy, and immediately take out Spirit Stones from your storage bag, maintaining the supply of Spiritual Power while replenishing what’s being consumed.]

Su Xing sighed slightly at the sight.

“This must be the rumored battle between Cultivators, right? What’s the background of that black energy that it can actually compete with the Li Fire?”

But then Su Xing shook his head and said:
