Battle Through the Heavens: Live Q&a Session - Only I Know the Answers

71: Chapter 71 Killing Mu Gu”Where on earth did this brat get such a strange Dou Technique? Not only is its defensive power ridiculously high, but it also deals such damage.”

Mu Gu looked disheveled and wary; he had almost died just a moment ago.

”What a detestable brat.”

Watching the great sword continue to slash down, Mu Gu had no choice but to fly up again and begin evading the attacks.

Chen Yang watched the jumping Mu Gu coldly through his avatar. He knew this couldn’t continue, so he dismissed his avatar and slowly walked out in his true form to stand before Mu Gu.

”Mu Gu, it seems that you, a Dou Zun, aren’t much to speak of.”

Chen Yang crossed his arms and mocked Mu Gu’s disheveled appearance.

Mu Gu wore a ferocious expression and gritted his teeth, saying: ”Brat, why aren’t you continuing to use that Dou Technique? I suspect you’ve run out of Dou Qi, haven’t you? Hahaha.”

”Don’t worry, brat, I will deal with you properly.”

Mu Gu saw Chen Yang’s sunken face and felt he had guessed correctly. Such a powerful Dou Technique would naturally consume a massive amount of Dou Qi; for a mere Dou Zong to last this long was already quite impressive.

”Hehehe.”

With an evil grin, Mu Gu charged straight at Chen Yang, clearly not wanting to give him a chance to recover his Dou Qi. However, what he didn’t know was that Chen Yang didn’t cultivate Dou Qi at all.

Chen Yang also rushed forward again, and two streaks of light clashed in the sky once more.

”Bang!”

”Brat, let’s see how much longer you can hold on. Competing in Dou Qi with me—do you think you can win!”

Mu Gu looked ferocious. As a dignified Dou Zun expert, he hadn’t managed to take down a Dou Zong who was exhausted of Dou Qi for so long. If word got out, people would think he, Mu Gu, was a failure.

Watching Mu Gu’s rising battle intent, Chen Yang felt some strain. Although a 3-star Dou Zun was a low-level Dou Zun, one had to understand that the gap between each realm of a Dou Zun was immense.

”As expected of a 3-star Dou Zun, the Dou Qi in your body is still so abundant.”

You might ask why Chen Yang didn’t use any Dou Techniques; that was because the ones he had were mostly low-grade and couldn’t be brought to the table. How could such techniques compete with a Dou Zun expert like Mu Gu?

However, he still had one trump card he hadn’t used: the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body.

Watching Mu Gu charge over again, Chen Yang’s eyes narrowed.

”Now is the time!”

Chen Yang formed a hand seal, and countless rays of golden light surged from all around, transforming into ropes that wrapped around Mu Gu.

”What is going on!”

Mu Gu looked panicked. Seeing his hands, feet, and waist being gradually bound by the golden ropes, he began to feel afraid.

”Hah!”

With a loud shout from Chen Yang, his shirt exploded. Golden patterns began to crawl up from below his navel, quickly covering his entire body, even his face. His hair even turned golden.

”Blazing Sun Wind-Breaking Fist!”

”Go to hell, Mu Gu!!!”

Chen Yang’s fist ignited with a massive cyan flame, interspersed with golden light. It was like a meteor, carrying an unstoppable momentum, as he charged toward Mu Gu.

”No, spare me! I am a Grade 8 Alchemist! I can refine pills! Spare me!”

Mu Gu stared at the cyan-gold fireball charging toward him, his face filled with fear. Was he, a Grade 8 Alchemist, really going to fall just like this?

No! I cannot die! I must live! That’s right, I have a Spirit Realm soul!

”Boom!!!”

This strike produced a massive explosion. Mu Gu’s entire body was blown into ash, not a single drop of blood remaining.

Chen Yang slowly opened his palm, and a simple, ancient storage ring shimmered in his hand.

”Brat, just you wait, I won’t let you off!”

An illusory soul body appeared not far from Chen Yang. It looked at Chen Yang with a vengeful expression, cursing incessantly.

Chen Yang looked up and saw that Mu Gu still had a soul body left. No, he couldn’t let him escape.

Seeing Chen Yang charging over, Mu Gu’s soul quickly escaped into the void, evading Chen Yang’s capture.

Chen Yang’s face was grim. He hadn’t expected that a moment of carelessness would allow Mu Gu’s soul body to escape. It seemed that it wouldn’t be long before the Hall of Souls came knocking.

Holding Mu Gu’s storage ring, Chen Yang landed slowly beside Yun Yun and Gu Yuena with a solemn expression. Seeing the worried looks on the two women’s faces, Chen Yang held them in his arms to comfort them.

He took a black robe from his storage ring, put it on, and slowly walked over to where Han Feng was.

Han Feng was being held firmly on the ground by Mo Tianxing and the others, unable to move.

With lowered eyes, Han Feng watched Chen Yang walk up to him and said tremblingly: ”Han Li... brother, no, Brother Han, Brother Han, we are family! Spare me! I am a Sixth-Rank Alchemist, I can refine pills for you. That’s right, I also have the Sea Heart Flame, I’ll give it to you, I’ll give you everything, just spare me.”

Han Feng hadn’t expected that even such a powerful 3-star Dou Zun would return in defeat. The person before him was terrifyingly strong.

Watching Han Feng’s cowardly appearance, Chen Yang shook his head and said slowly: ”Han Feng, you brought this upon yourself, so don’t blame me.”

A golden sword slowly materialized in Chen Yang’s hand.

”Don’t kill me, Han Li, I am useful, really useful.”

Han Feng begged for mercy incessantly. Mo Tianxing and the others had never imagined that the Pill Emperor, who once shook the Black-Corner Region, would end up like this.

Chen Yang raised his foot and stepped on Han Feng’s head, aimed the golden sword in his hand, and stabbed down!

”Pfft...”

Han Feng spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes widening. A Dou Huang expert whose heart had been pierced still had to die.

Han Feng’s eyes gradually dimmed, and he fell to the ground, growing stiff and motionless.

Mo Tianxing and the others released their hold on Han Feng and slowly backed away.

”Han Feng, stop hiding. Do you think I haven’t noticed you?”

Chen Yang said with a smile. Han Feng’s soul, which hadn’t even reached the Spirit Realm, thought it could hide from him? Ridiculous.

Mo Tianxing and the others were shocked; they hadn’t expected that Han Feng hadn’t died even after that.

An illusory soul body slowly emerged from Han Feng’s corpse and knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing to Chen Yang.

”Don’t kill me, don’t kill me.”

Seeing that Han Feng had been scared out of his wits, Chen Yang took out a jade bottle and waved his hand gently; Han Feng’s soul was sealed inside the jade bottle.

With Han Feng’s death, the Sea Heart Flame within his body began to stir restlessly.

Chen Yang placed his hand on Han Feng’s corpse, and a cluster of blue flames was slowly drawn out. As the Undying Heavenly Art circulated, the Sea Heart Flame was directly suppressed within Chen Yang’s bitter sea.

Of course, Chen Yang didn’t spare Han Feng’s corpse either. After emptying all the valuable items from Han Feng’s storage ring, he stored the corpse in his storage ring as well.

Although this thing was of no use to him, it could still be traded for something with Yao Lao.

This couldn’t be wasted.

Yao Lao: ”You’re actually quite a decent person.”

Xiao Yan: ”I didn’t expect that the inheritance Teacher left for me would all be snatched up by you, brat.”

Only then did Chen Yang begin to examine the storage ring left by Mu Gu, and upon looking, he was astonished.

He could only say that it was worthy of a Grade 8 Alchemist.

The medicinal herbs, pill formulas, pills, and Dou Techniques in this storage ring had everything. This haul made Chen Yang instantly rich.

Chen Yang happily tucked all these items away.
