Chapter 939 - Mutation Finally Occurred
The Nether Jail’s sky had always been deathly grey in color. There was always a dark cloud that never dispersed which covered the sky.
The entire world was dark as night, even in the day. Death Energy spread everywhere, making the place feel really sinister and haunted.
However, at this moment, one could no longer see the black suppressive clouds above. The skies were clear all around and a sun was shining brightly above. One couldn’t see much Yin Energy around either.
How did this happen?
What happened during the 10 days that he had left?
He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. He subconsciously looked toward the Nether Jail.
The Formless God Demon wasn’t there anymore and it was nowhere to be seen. The black mist that spread hundreds of miles had dissipated too.
This made him even more suspicious…
With a flash he was at the side of the Abyss Gate and he looked around, deep in thought.
This place had been burned by flames, causing the hundreds of miles of land to turn white.
The ground beneath his foot was formed from hardened lava. The thousands of feet below had actually been melted!
He sensed carefully and he was shocked. He felt that the laws of this world along with the Death Jail restrictions had loosened significantly.
It was like it suffered from external impact not long ago.
“Was it really Jueyan?”
If a Saint Venerable attacked, then it wouldn’t be tough for it to happen. However, why would Elder Jueyan do that? Was he really so bored?
Finally, his eyes landed on Zong Shou who was resting beside a nether tree a few hundred miles away.
He hadn’t met him for 10 days and the aura he gave off now was really different.
His aura was innate, round and merged with his body, not leaking out at all. For some reason, he gave one a rash and impulsive feeling, making one feel terrified and a little uneasy.
Lu Tianqing frowned, teleporting in the air and instantly flashing over.
He had a complicated expression as he looked at the teen who was under the tree. Zong Shou’s eyelids jumped as he tried to open his eyes.
He has woken up?
The moment such a thought flashed across his mind, he was attracted by Zong Shou’s eyes.
His eyes were bloodshot like blood jade. They were extremely pure and there were no flaws and impurities at all.
This gaze was really charming which made his consciousness nearly immerse into it.
“What devilish eyes…”
Lu Tianqing took in a deep breath before managing to calm himself down. Then, he found it weird. How did Zong Shou’s eyes become like this? Before he left, they were totally different.
The blood eyes seemed familiar. He felt like the Vital Energy in his body was boiling and he had an urge to kowtow in front of this teen.
His heart was pounding intensely like a drum that was being sounded. His eyes were feeling a little itchy too.
What was the reason for this?
While Lu Tianqing was in deep thought, Zong Shou slowly woke up. His eyes which looked totally lost regained a sense of anxiousness.
The extreme pain in his eyes had actually disappeared and he could finally see once more.
The barrier that blocked the Blood Spirit Curse Power for so long was nowhere to be seen to.
However, he wasn’t able to sense anything weird regarding his eyes.
He only found that he saw things more clearly than before.
Within 100 miles, he easily picked up the dust particles and even the structures within, without him needing to inject Spiritual Energy into his eyes.
He could even sense all the Spiritual Energy changes all around him.
At this moment, he cared about most wasn’t his eyes but Jueyan and the ninth layer abyss gate…
He looked out. The Abyss Gate was still there but Jueyan was nowhere to be seen.
He subconsciously looked toward the monster tree and saw that the woman whose name he didn’t remember was already gone and there was no one left under the tree.
He felt an emptiness in his heart like someone was taken away from him and he found it extremely unbearable.
While feeling melancholy he was also worried. He didn’t know where she went and whether she was safe?
Didn’t she say that she was going to wait for 20 years here and leave when her sentence was over?
Why was she gone so quickly?
He looked at his body and the Chakra Meridians within. His body and vessels were as good as new.
Even the power of his physical body had became stronger.
Zong Shou shook his head and his eyes landed on the red-robed old man opposite him.
Saint Realm!
Another expert whom he was powerless to face. Actually, to him, Saint Realm and End Realm were the same and there wasn’t much difference.
With just a finger, they could easily smash him!
“Who are you?”
He wasn’t interested in his identity but just wanted to know whether or not he would stop him if he entered the Death Jail?
“Lu Tianqing! Speaking of which, I am your Senior…”
Lu Tianqing stopped and looked at Zong Shou’s cold eyes. He knew that this kid didn’t respect the so-called senior.
Lu Tianqing didn’t get angry. Instead, he was glad this was the case.
“The changes here were because of you?”
Jueyan had already left, so the only person he could ask was this teen.
Zong Shou looked around and was similarly shocked by the changes here. In the end, he shook his head in confusion, “It was Extreme Flame Saint Venerable and I…”
He could roughly remember what happened before he went unconscious.
The black mist being burned had to do with him but how could he have such an ability?
It was not wrong to say that it was done by both Extreme Flame Saint Venerable and him.
Lu Tianqing understood. Although he didn’t know the specifics, but as expected it was caused by Jueyan.
Of course, how could a junior that just entered the Celestial Realm, no matter how talented he was, have such huge ability?
Thinking about his talents, he felt a little terrified.
As long as this teen didn’t die, sooner or later, he would climb up and stand at the peak. He was a huge problem!
Killing intent rose up and then he recalled what Jueyan said before he suppressed it once more.
Zong Shou didn’t sense anything as he hesitated and asked, “Jueyan and I have an agreement. As long as I came to win his Essence Blood body, he would release my mother and pardon her remaining sentence…”
Jueyan had obviously gone against his words but Zong Shou still had that small bit of hope.
End Realm Saint Venerables couldn’t really go against their words and not worry about losing face.
If that was the case, then he would spread it and let everyone know how shameless Jueyan really was!
The moment he said these words, Lu Tianqing was shocked.
Defeat Jueyan’s Essence Blood Body and he would pardon Lu Hanyan’s remaining sentence?
Were those words true?
Hearing what Zong Shou said, he actually won?
Even a drop of blood from an End Realm Expert, 1% of his strength could be comparable to Initial God Realm Experts…
With his 10,000 years of attainments in spells and the Martial Path, how would he lose?
Even someone of the same grade, maybe even 10 God Realm Cultivators working together might not be able to defeat Jueyan.
However, what if what this kid said was true?
Terrifying!
A deep sense of fear spread all throughout Lu Tianqing’s body.
His eyes were filled with fear and terror. If this kid had another 100 more years, probably no one in the Lu Family could stop him!
Country Ruler Xuanhua’s position looked stable but in front of this kid, it would be like a city built of sand, one push and it would collapse.
At this moment, it was still okay but the future would be unpredictable.
All of a sudden, he felt an ice-cold sensation in his chest.
The Extreme Flame Saint Venerable sent him away for 10 days to probe Zong Shou’s potential.
He knew that this kid’s talents were tough to come by which was why he wanted to fix his relationship with the Sky Burning Saint Emperor.
At this moment, he might be still hesitating. One side grasped half of the power of the Lu Family and had strength to fragment the family. The other had limitless potential and if he reached the Saint Realm, the future was unpredictable.
All of a sudden, the killing intent rose up once more!
He had a strong indescribable urge to just destroy this kid!
Even if Jueyan said these words, he still found it tough to suppress himself!
Zong Shou felt something and frowned.
Who knows whether it was because of the Bloodline Mutation, but his senses of human thoughts became really sharp.
What he was thinking about when he was speaking was something he could predict and pick up.
He had killing intent twice, getting deeper and deeper.
His blood eyes flashed in wariness.
However, Lu Tianqing laughed, “Your mother? Lu Hanyan? Not long ago, she was trapped under the tree. You should have seen her many times. Extreme Flame Saint Venerable didn’t follow the agreement? That was really true. Not long ago, he shifted her to the Ninth Layer and said that it was because she worked with an outsider to try to escape…”
He didn’t know what he was feeling but since Lu Yunge said he wanted Zong Shou to suffer from torture till he died, he would follow his intentions. It was best if this kid died with many regrets!
The moment he said this, he shot out a Golden Shuttle into the void.
The Saint Dynasty wasn’t the only method to contact Xuanhua.
This flying shuttle could travel billions of worlds in just a moment. He only had one for emergencies.
He had to pay a huge price for today’s matter. However, Xuanhua also needed to go all out to help him!
Zong Shou was in a daze like he was still in shock about something.
Lu Tianqing laughed coldly. He had expected this.
Knowing that the woman was actually his mother, he went all out to search but in the end, they met and didn’t even recognize one another. Anyone would have such an expression on their face.
Lu Tianqing patted out with his hand and a small poisonous bug with three colors, yellow, purple and green, appeared in his hands.
This was the Three Spirit Host Corpse Poison Bug!
But he felt that it was inappropriate and kept it. He took another item out. It was a transparent bug that appeared when he injected True Qi into it.
Although the poisonous bug could cause extreme pain, using up one’s Vital Energy and resulting in death, it was tough to hide it from outsiders.
As for this Invisible God Swallowing Silkworm, it was a Natural Variant formed in the Nine Extreme Death Jail and was also a poisonous bug.
Although its effects were slow, it was invisible and formless. Even End Realm and Saint Realm Venerables wouldn’t have a clue. After a period of time, he could escape from all suspicion.
He hesitated slightly before he shot several seals into it.
Although he was caught on both sides, he knew how to weigh the pros and cons.
Although he had to pay a high price to kill this kid, he had to do so. If matters were dragged on, accidents would happen.
Why not just destroy all of Jueyan’s hopes from the start!
The moment such a thought rose up, the Invisible God Swallowing Silkworm turned into a silver line and stabbed into his brain.
At this moment, his expression changed.
An intense flame burned around Zong Shou’s body, instantly spreading through the air.
Lu Tianqing was caught off guard and half of his body protecting energy was burned.
He was stunned and then his face turned ashen white. This was obviously the World Burning Flame!
How was that possible?
