Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 497: Chapter 511: Celestial Silkworm Gu Poison

The sudden appearance of everything took everyone by surprise, and the man in black hurriedly dodged. Although he avoided it in time, he was still knocked down by the palm wind, sending him flying several meters away, involuntarily spitting out a mouthful of black blood, looking at the opponent with disbelief.

”You... You’re not poisoned?” the man in black asked in shock. If the opponent really wasn’t poisoned, then tonight must have been a trap, a scheme the opponent had long seen through, waiting to capture everyone in one go.

He then looked at Lu Yang and said, ”Didn’t you say he was poisoned? How dare you deceive me, what use are you if you stay in this world?” Immediately, a dark green box appeared in his hand, causing Lu Yang’s face to turn pale with fright.

Lu Yang hurriedly pleaded, ”Protector, please no! Protector, I beg you to spare my life! I really did poison him, but his strength is extremely formidable; perhaps he has already expelled the toxins.”

”You still dare to quibble? Once poisoned by the lord’s venom, no one in this world can cure it except the lord. You’ve lost your value; die now!” After saying this, he directly opened the box.

At this moment, Lu Yang pounced towards the green box like a starving wolf. With the Ninth Layer of Divine Martial Realm’s strength, his speed was extremely terrifying. But just as Lu Yang pounced, the man in black had already opened the box, revealing a completely white insect inside.

The Black Night People grabbed the insect instantly, causing Lu Yang to go limp and fall to the ground, a look of pain evident on his face.

All of this was naturally seen by the Crescent Sect Leader; the man in black actually used Poisonous Gu on him, no wonder he betrayed the sect. Poisonous Gu is an extremely terrifying toxin. Seeing the white insect in his hand, he understood everything; it turned out to be the Celestial Silkworm Gu, ranked among the top three Gu poisons.

He immediately flashed, preparing to snatch the green box. Although Lu Yang did such a rebellious thing, it was because he was coerced by the other party. Those who are poisoned by Gu generally have no control over themselves, and as his master, he also bears some responsibility.

Even if Lu Yang is to die, it should only be by his own hand; he certainly cannot watch his beloved disciple be slain by others. However, the man in black was no weakling either; seeing the Crescent Sect Leader’s move, he quickly brought up an afterimage and dodged to the side.

At the same time, he shouted loudly, ”If you want your foolish disciple to die right in front of you, just try it. If the world finds out you couldn’t even save your beloved disciple, I think the Crescent Sect’s reputation will be utterly ruined. Weigh the pros and cons yourself.”

These words immediately made the Crescent Sect Leader lower the hand he had raised, and looking at Lu Yang who was writhing in pain on the ground, his heart was filled with immense pain. If it weren’t for sending him down the mountain to handle some affairs, he wouldn’t have given the opponent a chance to exploit, wouldn’t have been poisoned by Gu, and none of this would have happened.

The past events were vivid in his mind. Thinking back to his previous performances in the sect, it truly made him reluctant to kill him, a look of helplessness flashed across his face.

”Today we admit defeat. If you want your beloved disciple to live, you’d better stay there obediently. If you act recklessly, perhaps my hand might tremble, causing the Celestial Silkworm in my hand to die, and then I wouldn’t know the consequences,” said the man in black.

”Don’t go too far. Such a treacherous disciple is not worth regretting; I want to see if you have the guts to do it,” the Crescent Sect Leader said sternly, his face nearly igniting the air with rage.

”Don’t believe me? Try it!” The man in black slightly exerted force on the Celestial Silkworm in his hand, causing the ground-bound Lu Yang to roll in agony.

Seeing Lu Yang’s painful appearance, the Crescent Sect Leader could only endure. His only hope at the moment was that Chu Linfeng could snatch the Celestial Silkworm from the other party’s hand. Although the chances were slim, it was the only hope for now.

Chu Linfeng, hidden in the earth layer, was naturally aware of what was happening above. He knew the Crescent Sect Leader was in a dilemma, fearing to act rashly. If he didn’t help, these Dark Forces people might really escape.

To his disappointment, there wasn’t a single Demon General among them; the leader in black was merely at the First Layer of Saint Martial Realm. For now, subduing him might yield some intelligence on the Dark Forces.

With this in mind, Chu Linfeng slowly approached the man in black. He had already devised a thorough plan; upon appearing, the opponent would surely be so surprised as to be distracted for a moment, and in that moment, he would sever the opponent’s arm with the Cyan Frost Sword, thus preventing the Celestial Silkworm from dying.

All this was easy to say but extremely difficult to execute; timing had to be precise with no room for error, or else the opponent could go for a mutually assured destruction, making it truly not worth the loss.

Seeing the Crescent Sect Leader in hesitation, the man in black grew bolder, and laughed, ”It seems you are a wise person. Today, we’ll spare the Crescent Sect temporarily, but the matter from back then isn’t settled; someone will personally deal with you!”

The tone was clearly indicating a retreat, and Chu Linfeng certainly wouldn’t let him succeed. He immediately emerged from the earth, appearing right in front of the man in black, and his Cyan Frost Sword struck at the opponent with lightning speed.

This sudden change was something the man in black never anticipated; he never dreamed someone would burst out from the soil. As swift as he was, he was too late to react; an arm was directly severed by Chu Linfeng, falling to the ground.

In that hand still held the white Celestial Silkworm. Chu Linfeng hurriedly picked up the arm, instantly teleporting to the Crescent Sect Leader, handing him the arm.

The man in black’s face changed; seemingly, the pain from the lost arm made him very uncomfortable. Black blood oozed from the severed arm, causing both Chu Linfeng and the Crescent Sect Leader to be taken aback.

”Who are you?” The man in black coldly uttered these words; evidently, due to Chu Linfeng’s appearance, his escape plan was thwarted.

”Who am I? You don’t have the qualification to ask. Even Loneliness would not dare speak to me like this. Since you’re here today, don’t think of going anywhere!” Chu Linfeng said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Cyan Frost Sword in his hand, brimming with sharp Sword Qi, attacked the nearest men in black. This move was something he had learned from the secret room’s martial skills, and these men could serve as practice dummies.

As Chu Linfeng moved, the Crescent Sect Leader naturally moved as well. Of all things, he hated being held hostage the most, attacking directly at the man in black who had lost an arm...
