Chapter 83

"Primordial Qi!"

Guchen Sha immediately knew that the energy force from several hundred steps away was Primordial Qi, which erupted from within the body, piercing through metal and stone from a hundred steps away, with immense power, specifically designed to break through tough defenses, far surpassing ordinary divine weapons.

Although this energy force was just a small point, when it hit the body, it could almost shatter a city wall. It was the power of condensed spiritual energy at its peak.

If it were a normal arrow or even a fire talisman gun, Guchen Sha could have dodged it, but Primordial Qi could be released at will, and with his current cultivation, he had no way to avoid it and could only withstand it.

On that day in the temple, he was instantly enveloped by Yiming. If not for using the Sea-Cleaving Thunderbolt, he would have had no place to bury his body.

The Great Dragon Armor continuously wriggled, neutralizing the impact of the Primordial Qi, but he still felt the destructive force. Without the defense of the Great Dragon Armor, his flesh would have been torn into a bloody mess instantly.

This Primordial Qi could easily break through the Horned Dragon Armor.

The Chi Dragon Armor would probably also find it difficult to block it.

He had just steadied himself, trying to see who was attacking, but another hiss sounded, and the energy force hit him again, blasting him into the air.

"This is the Sixth Transformation of the Dao Realm, not the Seventh." As he was blasted into the air, his blood surged, but he could already see that the person attacking him was only at the Sixth Transformation "Refining Qi into Primordial Qi," not the Seventh Transformation "Leaving the Ground and Soaring," because the Primordial Qi that hit him dissipated immediately and did not retract.

If it were the Seventh Transformation, the Primordial Qi would have turned into ropes or a sphere, completely binding him, making it hard to escape even with the Great Dragon Armor.

"Transform!" In mid-air, Guchen Sha activated the Great Dragon Armor, and the scales on his back formed wings in a breath, trying to fly higher and escape the range of the Primordial Qi.

Although the Primordial Qi attack was powerful, it had a weakness: distance. For ordinary experts, the effective range was from a hundred to several hundred steps. Beyond this distance, the Primordial Qi would weaken and eventually dissipate in the air. For more powerful figures, the range was from a thousand to several thousand steps.

In addition, there was the number of attacks.

A Primordial Qi attack consumed a lot of true essence. For someone who had just entered the Sixth Transformation, a few to ten attacks would deplete their Primordial Qi, making it difficult to continue. They would need to reabsorb spiritual energy, compress it in their body, and transform it into Primordial Qi, which could take a day or several days.

Even for those with abundant Primordial Qi, attacking dozens to a hundred times would also deplete their resources.

Guchen Sha had a plan to deal with such a person, relying on the Great Dragon Armor to withstand the Primordial Qi until it was exhausted, and then making a move.

Of course, even if the Primordial Qi was exhausted, the physical martial arts of the opponent far exceeded his own.

However, facing a powerful opponent could激发 his potential and make his martial arts more proficient.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Just as he was about to fly up to avoid the Primordial Qi attack, several more energy forces hit him. The Great Dragon Armor contracted violently, the scales wriggled, and it failed to form wings.

He was blasted from the air and fell to the ground, crashing into the earth and creating a deep pit.

At this moment, a person appeared beside the deep pit, wearing a leather robe and a large cloak, holding a bone staff, with a lean but well-trained body like a diamond.

His eyes were emerald green, like ghostly flames flickering in his eye sockets, giving a sense of evil descending upon the earth as he looked down.

"What kind of armor is this?" He spoke in the language of the Great Yong Dynasty: "Nineteenth Prince, I didn't expect you to have such a treasure. A person who hasn't even cultivated the Dao Realm can resist Primordial Qi, it's a miracle. But it ends here."

He raised the bone staff and thrust it down.

Clang!

Guchen Sha's hand produced the Demon-Subduing Blade, which collided with the bone staff.

Sparks flew, and the Demon-Subduing Blade developed a notch and cracks, about to collapse. Guchen Sha was shaken to the point of numbness, and if not for the Great Dragon Armor neutralizing 99% of the force, the Demon-Subduing Blade would have been knocked away.

"The blade is a good blade, but the craftsmanship is insufficient, it's a half-finished product." The shadow priest looked at Guchen Sha, who was getting up. "I want the armor. You can't activate its power. If I get this armor, I can soak it in the Dragon Transformation Pool, evolve it further, and inscribe runes on it to add more variations. You don't know how to refine artifacts. Wearing this thing is a waste. Bind!"

The shadow priest suddenly moved forward and slapped Guchen Sha, forcing blood out of his palm, which formed a blood-colored rune on the Great Dragon Armor.

Guchen Sha tried to dodge, but the shadow priest was too fast, continuously attacking him, each palm strike hitting the Great Dragon Armor.

In just a few breaths, the Great Dragon Armor was covered with the shadow priest's blood runes.

The Great Dragon Armor seemed to lose its effectiveness.

"It seems I was delusional, thinking I could deal with a Sixth Transformation Dao Realm expert with just the Great Dragon Armor. The result is being toyed with. I overestimated my abilities." Despite being in extreme danger, Guchen Sha remained calm and laughed. He had wanted to test his strength but ended up making a mistake. However, he now knew how terrifying a person who had cultivated Primordial Qi could be, which was a valuable lesson. Moreover, the failure was within his calculations.

"Yiming!"

He let out a long howl.

Whoosh!

Behind the shadow priest, Yiming appeared, fingers spread, and a force like the sky descended, forming an egg-shaped canopy that enveloped the shadow priest.

This was an ambush.

Yiming's realm was one transformation higher than the shadow priest, and with the element of surprise, he instantly restrained the opponent.

"Mahakala's Prison! You are the messenger of Mahakala, why are you helping this prince!" The shadow priest roared, trying to use his Primordial Qi to break free, but Yiming was familiar with the shadow priest's various techniques. He continuously changed his Primordial Qi, turning it into needles that pierced through the seven orifices, locking the internal organs and preventing movement.

"Master, he is very powerful and has many techniques. If I wasn't familiar with his tricks and used the Mahakala's Prison to lock his core qi vortex in the dantian, he could still escape from me." Yiming ignored the shadow priest's questions and explained to Guchen Sha.

"This shadow priest is indeed very strong, able to break through my Great Dragon Armor." Guchen Sha felt the blood seeping into the armor, which was also a method of refining artifacts.

"The Great Dragon Armor was refined by the master. If the master's realm is low and encounters someone with a much higher realm and the ability to refine artifacts, they can take the treasure." Yiming said, "But now it doesn't matter. As long as this person dies, he will lose control over the Great Dragon Armor. Master, quickly kill him to avoid any delays. If he has allies, it will be difficult to capture him."

Under the energy force, the shadow priest struggled, still having the strength to resist.

Guchen Sha picked up the Demon-Subduing Blade and suddenly stabbed at the shadow priest's eye. He knew that even with a tough exterior, the eyes were vulnerable and could be easily injured by a divine weapon.

Clang!

The shadow priest closed his eyes, and the Demon-Subduing Blade hit his eyelid, sparking but unable to penetrate.

Although Yiming could use his energy force to destroy the shadow priest's dantian from the inside, the person had to be killed by Guchen Sha personally to be sacrificed to the heavens.

"Master, drip the Heavenly Dew on the Demon-Subduing Blade, and it will become extremely sharp. I will use a secret technique to destroy his dantian. In that moment, his body will be at its weakest, and we can break through his defenses." Yiming said.

Guchen Sha quickly took out the remaining Heavenly Dew and dripped it on the Demon-Subduing Blade. The damaged weapon immediately glowed and quickly repaired itself, emitting a brilliant light.

"Destroy!" Yiming then used his power to destroy the shadow priest's dantian from the inside, dispersing his Primordial Qi and relaxing his flesh.

Indeed, the shadow priest roared continuously, and his skin became slack.

Guchen Sha suddenly stabbed, breaking through the eyelid, and the Demon-Subduing Blade pierced through the eye and into the brain.

"You have betrayed the god, and the god will strip you of your glory!" The shadow priest roared at Yiming, struggling continuously but to no avail. Guchen Sha destroyed his brain with the Demon-Subduing Blade, and his consciousness gradually became hazy, his soul seemingly sucked into a strange altar.

Boom!

The shadow priest fell to the ground.

Guchen Sha took a deep breath, "If not for you, I couldn't have dealt with such a powerful opponent, even if he stood still for me to kill him."

"Master's realm is hard to cause harm to the Fourth Transformation." Yiming examined the shadow priest's body, searching it, "This is a shadow priest from the Chaos Monkey Temple, known for his abundant Primordial Qi. He cultivated the Chaos Monkey Canon, which is only slightly inferior to the Mahakala's Prison Sutra. He had many techniques he hadn't used. Look, this bone staff is made from the spine of an ancient mountain-moving giant monkey, cultivated in a spirit-gathering array for countless years, and refined with his own blood for at least sixty years, almost making it a part of his body. It stores Primordial Qi, allowing him to release several times more in battle. If he had used this treasure, I would have had a hard time dealing with him."

Cultivating Primordial Qi in the Sixth Transformation of the Dao Realm is indeed powerful, but due to limited storage in the body, only a few attacks can be made.

However, with a supreme treasure, the Primordial Qi can be stored and released in battle, acting as a Primordial Qi reservoir.

But such supreme treasures are very rare.

"Yiming, you should have your own treasure, right?" Guchen Sha asked.

"Yes, but it was destroyed when resisting the Sea-Cleaving Thunderbolt." Yiming said, "I ask the master to grant me this treasure. This bone staff is of better quality than my original one, and with the original owner dead, I can refine it using the Mahakala's Prison Sutra, increasing my combat power by at least 30%."

"Very well." Guchen Sha nodded. Now, the main combat power relied on Yiming, and his strength was a good thing.

"Thank you, master." Yiming quickly knelt on one knee, "This shadow priest has many treasures. I will count them for the master."

"Count them first." Guchen Sha's body flashed, entering the altar space. He had killed the barbarian general and sacrificed to the heavens, receiving 600 drops of Heavenly Dew. Now, killing this shadow priest, who had a close relationship with the evil god and was extremely powerful, he wondered how many drops of Heavenly Dew he would receive.

Unfortunately, without the Heart-Seizing Talisman, he couldn't have subjugated the shadow priest.
