Chapter 186: Black and Red Spear

Chapter 184

The moment he saw Xu Zixiao, Chen Jingzhai already had some ideas in his head.

The Demon Subduing Tower with twenty-four levels was not a place where cultivators could be imprisoned.

Even if there was a place for imprisonment, it would never be used for actual detention. Any potential prisoners would be executed immediately without leaving a trace.

More Importantly, the smell of blood and malicious spirit that emitted from Xu Zixiao was very strong.

If it weren’t for how lucid he appeared to be, Chen Jingzhai would have taken action right away.

After all, this was the existence of a corpse that had been made into a Dao soldier. It was not something well-liked by anyone.

What’s more, something seemed really wrong with Xu Zixiao.

Even though he looked very awake just now, it was only temporary. An incomplete Corpse Refining Method was doomed to cause chaos sooner or later.

“Ha!”

Xu Zixiao, whose eyes were bloodshot, held the black and red spear in his hands, as he swept over to Chen Jingzhai.

This powerful and heavy blow was terrifying.

What made it even more disturbing was the bloody aura that his opponent had unleashed at that moment.

Chen Jingzhai instantly felt as if he had entered the dead zone of a killing field.

Before he had a chance to cast any spells, Chen Jingzhai tapped lightly with his feet and slid backward.

A little flash of the spear glowed like a crescent moon and swooshed past right in front of Chen Jingzhai.

The evil energy in the spear’s drift activated the evil spirits, which quickly approached Chen Jingzhai.

The spiritual item-grade magic robe worn by Chen Jingzhai gave a slight flicker and was able to defend against the attack easily.

During this temporary pause, Chen Jingzhai unleashed the Mourning Staff.

Its high-pitched whistling sound was sharp and harsh, spreading with a boom.

Xu Zixiao was greatly affected by this sudden stimulation. Suddenly, he grabbed at his own head and began shouting and screaming.

His face was a twisted mess, and the blood-colored lines that had receded were appearing once more.

This time, stimulated by the sound waves from the Mourning Staff, the blood-colored lines appeared with madness.

They crawled from his neck to his face, then onto his forehead until his entire body was covered with these lines.

At this time, Xu Zixiao’s appearance had completely altered.

The white, needle-like long hair, turned to the color of blood.

There were more lines now on his face as well. Fangs grew and poked out at the corners of his mouth. But more shockingly, there were scales now on his neck.

A ferocious aura emerged from him, and then he rushed toward Chen Jingzhai.

“A Grade 3 physique?” Chen Jingzhai appeared thoughtful and somber at this moment.

Xu Zixiao’s change was not something Chen Jingzhai expected. He did not expect that the other man was able to transform like this.

Those blood-colored lines looked extremely vicious, and unusual.

They could, in fact, stimulate the blood inside the body, to activate and enhance the physical form, so that the physical body could fully enter the level of Grade 3.

With a Grade 3 physique, even if Xu Zixiao had completely lost his mind, he was still able to explode with the enormous power of destruction.

If it were other Foundation Establishment cultivators facing such an opponent, they would be killed without a doubt.

“Buzz!”

The long and thick black spear trembled instantly, as a string of spear flurries appeared, accompanied by a subtle vibration in the air.

Xu Zixiao opened his mouth and roared. It was no longer the sound of a man, but the howl of a monster.

In the next moment, a black and red spear aurora burst out, directly stabbing in Chen Jingzhai’s direction.

Chen Jingzhai looked calm enough, as three earthen walls were erected in front of him.

After he comprehended the Dharma Intent, his control of the Five Elements Spell had reached its utmost limit.

Now that his cultivation had reached the Complete Foundation Plane, his mastery of the spells was becoming more intricate.

These three earthen walls, along with the space that separated them, were enough to completely block Xu Zixiao’s attacks.

However, the long spear was aggressive and unrelenting. This was the spear that was used on the battlefield.

A loud bang was heard, as the first earthen wall exploded, followed by the breach of the other two walls.

The spear aurora was ahead of the spear and pierced through Chen Jingzhai’s body first.

Bang! Crash!

Chen Jingzhai turned into water and fell directly to the ground and exploded.

Once again, the Water Illusion Shadow came served him well!

In the next moment, a fire dragon rose from the ground and split into two in the air, one on the right, and the other on the left.

Then, they both rushed toward Xu Zixiao. The one on the left aimed for his head, while the one on the right aimed for his lower limbs.

Xu Zixiao was in a complete state of battle frenzy at this time.

He was now solely relying on his own instinct to fight, without spiritual essence and without spells.

It was the sole power of his flesh, as well as the mixed energy of his evil and blood aura.

When danger descended, Xu Zixiao swung the spear horizontally, and simply swept away anything that was in its path.

A black and red spear shadow suddenly converged, severing the fire dragon directly like a sharp blade.

Each of the two fire dragons was cut into two. However, at the moment of falling, they changed again.

They turned into four fire dragons, which continued to pounce in four separate directions.

At the same time, Chen Jingzhai unleashed the Mourning Staff once again, and the sound of whistling came rushing in.

“Roar!”

Xu Zixiao let out a roar like a wild beast. His eyes were full of blood.

Surprisingly, his body changed again, and the black and red energy actually overflowed from his body.

The black and red energy merged into one with the armor that was on him.

This made Xu Zixiao appear as a murderous god, wrapped in black and red armor.

The four fire dragons wrapped around his body, making a sizzling sound.

The black and red armor blocked out the ultra-high temperature inflicted by the fire dragons. The overflowing energy was even able to extinguish the fire.

Xu Zixiao’s body trembled slightly, and the Dharma Intent from the four fire dragons was shattered.

The whistling continued but did not seem to have any further effect on Xu Zixiao.

He threw out the black and red spear and charged toward Chen Jingzhai.

With the spear in front of him, Xu Zixiao seemed to have the confidence that he would, for sure, hit his target.

When Chen Jingzhai saw this, he put away the Mourning Staff, because he knew that this spiritual item was no longer effective.

With both hands forming the seal, two vines appeared from the ground, out of nowhere.

One of them snatched the black and red spear, while the other snatched Xu Zixiao.

“Now!”

Chen Jingzhai shouted as his seal mantra was uttered. Flames began to burn from the vines.

More than that, the vines turned into a golden yellow color in the flames.

“Surround!”

Chen Jingzhai commanded in a deep voice, as more golden flaming vines reached out to tangle up his opponent.

Like spirit snakes, they began to twist and climb frantically along Xu Zixiao’s four limbs.

Xu Zixiao let out a painful howl, as the vines actually pierced through his skin.

The black and red energy was being consumed in massive amounts. He began to struggle violently and in earnest.

“Fall!”

Looking at Xu Zixiao, who was in bondage, Chen Jingzhai’s seal mantra changed again.

Four earthen walls fell out of the sky and set on four sides of Xu Zixiao.

They lay siege around him. Thus, Xu Zixiao was put in an earthen jar.

“Set!”

A stream of water fell and filled the enclosed earthen jar to the brim.

A chill began to spread. What was most strange, was that the flames on the vines were still burning.

As the temperature began to pass into the earthen walls, the earthen walls started to integrate one with another.

“Boom!” said Chen Jingzhai, as he looked indifferent, all the while gently squeezing his hand in Xu Zixiao’s direction.

Boom!

A shocking explosion was heard as if the entire tower itself was shaking.

Over here, a gust of wind blew out from nowhere, causing a sheer panic.

Whoosh!

The black and red spear pierced through the dust and aimed directly at Chen Jingzhai’s face.

Chen Jingzhai remained still, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up as the tip of the spear stopped in front of his eyes.

It was less than a centimeter away from his eyes.

“Thanks a lot!” Xu Zixiao was heard saying with a weak voice.

He knelt on the ground, as blood poured from all his seven orifices. But he seemed to have regained a little bit of his clarity.

The black and red spear was wrapped up tightly by the vines, and its other end was attached to Xu Zixiao.

“It’s a pity,” Chen Jingzhai said lightly, “If you were awake, you could exert the full strength of a Grade 3 physique. By then, even I will need to take some more time to deal with it.”

“You just needed some more time? It seems that your strength is considerable.” Xu Zixiao lowered his head and continued, “If so, I can rest in peace. If, when you get to the Wolf Brilliance Territory and see that Dayong still remains, help me take care of the remaining descendants; it is my last request to you as a human.”

“Cultivators don’t like to get involved in karmas. There is no grievance or hatred between you and me, so there is no karma,” Chen Jingzhai said calmly. “If there is an opportunity in the future, and if I remember it, I will help you find them. If there are some who qualify, I will lead them onto the path of cultivation.”

“Cultivation is good,” Xu Zixiao said with a weak smile, “Cultivation is the only way to control one’s own fate.”

When he finished speaking, the black and red energy exploded in his body instantly.

Such a tyrannical Grade 3 physique was instantly torn apart by an explosion, and the sight was horrific, to say the least.

The upturned corners of Chen Jingzhai’s mouth gradually relaxed. The moment the filthy debris got close to him, he landed on the ground.

He should have been happy to have defeated an opponent with a Grade 3 physique.

But now he felt no joy. Even though he became a cultivator, Chen Jingzhai had never ceased to be compassionate. The impact of Xu Zixiao on him was considerable, and this karma was not up to him.

Sighing lightly, Chen Jingzhai threw away the black and red spear, and turned around to come in front of the restriction.

The three prizes rose into the air.
