"Stop, I don't want the person anymore, just stop!"

As Wang Junze approached once again, fear flickered in Gao Kui's eyes, and he shouted anxiously.

"Aren't you the one with an Undying Body? What are you panicking for?"

With a cold smile, Wang Junze disdainfully replied, "You think I'll stop just because you said so? There's no such easy deal in this world!"

Stepping forward, Wang Junze attacked Gao Kui again. He was merely testing the waters earlier; if it worked, great; if not, he planned to forcefully drive his opponent to collapse.

What Undying Body, he couldn't believe that regrowing limbs came without any cost, as long as he kept killing, depleting his opponent's strength, perhaps there was still hope of killing him.

Of course, since the Water of the Netherworld was effective, it would be even easier.

Continuously severing his opponent's body and throwing the parts into the Netherworld Pool should be enough to wear him down to death.

As for letting Gao Kui go, Wang Junze never had such an idea.

Regardless of whether someone backs Gao Kui, daring to challenge him meant he must kill to assert his dominance.

Moreover, wasn't there the bet with Jiao Yang!

With so many watching, Jiao Yang wouldn't be able to renege easily, and if he could pressure him into handing over Ji Liuyun, so much the better.

Run!

Just as arrogant as he had been, Gao Kui was now just as terrified.

Does someone with an Undying Body not fear death? No, he fears it far more than ordinary people!

In Gao Kui's view, the real danger wasn't Wang Junze but the Water of the Netherworld, so staying alive was simple—just avoid the Netherworld Pool!

Even if Wang Junze caught up, what could he do?

He wasn't afraid of getting hurt; he could just rush down the mountain without caring!

Buzz!

The Sword Edge trembled slightly. Wang Junze leapt ahead, reaching peak velocity, once again blocking Gao Kui's path. The Sword Edge howled, instantly unleashing a terrifying Sword Qi, chopping towards Gao Kui like a tidal wave!

Water Sword Intent!

This strike wasn't meant to kill but to knock the opponent back.

In the past, battling a Mirage Dragon in the ocean, Wang Junze realized Sword Enlightenment amidst the waves, and the Water Sword Intent naturally surged like tides, tossing Gao Kui's body with the Sword Qi towards the Netherworld Pool.

This strike was equally formidable.

Wang Junze's terrifying strength was vividly displayed in this single stroke.

The Sword Qi blockade, created by him, made it impossible for Gao Kui to break through and flee down the mountain.

"Explode!"

His eyes bloodshot, at that moment Gao Kui was completely desperate, ignoring the cost, and again crashed into Wang Junze's Sword Edge, this time directly exploding a portion of his body to endure the impact of the Sword Qi, frantically continuing his escape down the mountain.

What does it matter to be injured, as long as he escapes, he can heal even from grave wounds, but staying here, being forced into the Netherworld Pool, means certain death.

To be fair, while Gao Kui's strength was average, when it came to fighting desperately, he was incredibly fierce.

Even Wang Junze wasn't expecting him to use such a mad method of body explosion to escape.

For a moment, Gao Kui truly caught him off guard.

However, at that moment, Wang Junze also showed his most ruthless side. In this situation, he couldn't back down; even a slight retreat would give Gao Kui a chance to break through the Sword Qi blockade. Catching up again would be too hard.

Therefore, when Gao Kui self-destructed his flesh and blood, Wang Junze didn't hesitate to use the Profound Ice Body Tempering Technique!

In an instant, a layer of Profound Ice enveloped Wang Junze's body, directly resisting Gao Kui's attack, still standing firmly in his way.

The blasted flesh and blood crashed into the Profound Ice over Wang Junze, shattering it instantly. Under the severe impact, Wang Junze couldn't help but spew a mouthful of blood.

Having his body withstand the impact of Gao Kui's exploding flesh and blood was somewhat strenuous; it was impossible without incurring any cost!

But the stance Wang Junze showed was that he would rather get hurt than let Gao Kui go.

Moreover, he accomplished just that; even with Gao Kui's desperate attempt, he couldn't break through Wang Junze's Sword Qi blockade.

Yet, in that instant, a silhouette in the distance suddenly moved!

In the blink of an eye, a fiery blaze surged!

A terrifying flame swept over like a fire dragon, indiscriminately swallowing both Wang Junze and Gao Kui.

Jiao Yang!

No one expected Jiao Yang to intervene.

On the surface, his strike indiscriminately hit both friend and foe, attacking without bias, even promising heavier injuries for Gao Kui, but in reality, it was nothing like that!

Gao Kui had an Undying Body, fearlessly facing injuries, but what about Wang Junze?

If he continued blocking Gao Kui, the fiery attack would likely severely injure him.

Facing mortal danger, even Wang Junze had no choice but to withdraw his sword for defense, directly blocking Jiao Yang's strike!

However, in that blocking moment, Gao Kui seized the opportunity, withstanding Jiao Yang's fiery attack, dashed forward. Although his entire body was scorched black, he paid no heed to these injuries, continuing his sprint down the mountain.

And for injuries critical to others, he recovered in just a few breaths.

"Jiao Yang, you dare to stop me?!"

Anger flashed in Wang Junze's eyes as he emerged from the flames, his killing intent surging.

Nonetheless, Jiao Yang couldn't care less about Wang Junze's threats, a mocking smile on his lips, coolly saying, "Since you wanted to bet, everyone uses their means, I never said I'd let you kill him!"

Rules?!

You're talking rules with a Demon Cultivator!

No one said Jiao Yang could only watch you and Gao Kui decide life and death, so as a gamble, Jiao Yang could use any means to win.

Of course, after intervening, Jiao Yang didn't intend to continue fighting Wang Junze, filled with mocking contempt, "Young man, don't be too self-righteous, now... you've lost!"

"I'll wait for that Other Shore Flower of yours!"

Fixing his gaze on Jiao Yang, Wang Junze's eyes were filled with intensified killing intent, almost wanting to settle life and death with Jiao Yang right here.

But this thought merely flashed in his mind, and he forcibly suppressed it.

The time isn't right yet!

Fighting to the death with Jiao Yang now would only benefit others, besides, the Mirage Dragon hadn't arrived, truly battling, he wasn't entirely confident of winning.

But... who said he was guaranteed to lose this gamble?!

With a sway, Wang Junze once again pursued Gao Kui fiercely.

Who said he couldn't kill Gao Kui without the Water of the Netherworld?!
