Scripture of Days Past

The undying divine general swelled to over three meters in height, its entire body covered in dragon scales. Yi Shuang’s trio collectively shuddered in fear at the monstrous sight.

It was an instinctive fear that came straight from the very depths of their souls.

It feels like I’m in the presence of a dragon! Yang Ling thought with a stunned expression. There’s the power of a dragon sealed within this living corpse!

Even after seeing the tenth tentacle emerge from the undying divine general’s shadow, Chu Qiguang showed no intention of backing down. Instead, he unleashed the eleventh of the Twelve Infernal Palms.

The sound of crashing waves rang out as Chu Qiguang’s golden skin began to split open, and droplets of blood began to seep out, instantly bathing his entire body in blood.

The eleventh palm strike was so powerful that it far exceeded the limits of what his body could handle, causing him to suffer a severe physical backlash.

The gale force gathered around his palm transformed into a giant crimson vortex that spun rapidly as it hurtled toward the undying divine general.

It was like a manifestation of the cycle of reincarnation in hell, an unavoidable and inevitable force whose sole purpose was to erase all life in its path before reincarnating it anew.

The eleventh of the Twelve Infernal Palms was named Boundless Reincarnation.

All the dragon scales on the undying divine general’s body began trembling in unison, as if reacting to the fearsome power of Chu Qiguang’s palm strike, but it showed no intention of backing down.

Instead, it let loose a long roar and stomped down, smashing a small crater into the ground.

Blood mist erupted from its wolf paws as it lashed out at the crimson gale force unleashed by Chu Qiguang. A resounding boom rang out as the two clashed.

Five claw wounds deep enough to expose bone had been slashed into Chu Qiguang’s chest, while the undying divine general was engulfed by the vortex of gale force. The vortex tore into it from all directions, leaving countless bloody gashes across its body.

The undying divine general lashed out with its claws once again to tear the vortex of gale force apart, but at that point, its entire body had already been sliced to ribbons, as if it had been attacked by a relentless barrage of swords and sabers.

However, its injuries were already healing rapidly, and its flesh was regenerating at an incredible rate. Meanwhile, Chu Qiguang made use of his Dragon Snake Skin boon to slough off his body once again.

A brand-new Chu Qiguang emerged from the old husk, the wounds on his chest had already completely healed. Before long, both combatants had fully recovered, and they threw themselves at each other once more.

What kind of martial art is Chu Qiguang using? Yang Ling thought in astonishment. How is he able to keep up with that monster?

The two combatants appeared evenly matched, but Chu Qiguang knew that this wasn’t actually the case.

By this point in the battle, his stamina, qi and blood had already been severely depleted, whereas the undying divine general seemed to have no such concerns.

Thus, he changed his strategy. Combining the Undying Seal with his Star Shifting Cloud Piercing Step, he maneuvered around his opponent and used its power against it instead of continuing to clash with it head-on.

Even though the undying divine general had gained a tenth tentacle in its shadow in this new form, its power, speed, and explosiveness were actually not that much greater than Chu Qiguang’s.

What made it truly terrifying were its seemingly unlimited stamina and regenerative abilities, which allowed it to gradually wear down its opponents.

At this rate, Chu Qiguang knew that his chances of victory were extremely slim, but he still had other tricks up his sleeve.

He had only chosen to fight the undying divine general to acclimate himself to his newfound power. If he couldn’t defeat it, he had other strategies to fall back on.

Thus, once he realized that a long and drawn-out battle would only work to his detriment, he immediately unleashed an explosive burst of speed with the Star Shifting Cloud Piercing Step and charged toward Yi Shuang.

A hint of fear flashed through Yi Shuang’s eyes at the sight of the oncoming Chu Qiguang, but he had already anticipated a move like this. He immediately retreated while frantically ringing his bell to draw the undying divine general to his aid.

With the undying divine general in Chu Qiguang’s path, Yi Shuang heaved an internal sigh of relief before sneering, ”Did you think I wouldn’t have anticipated that? I can tell that you can’t keep this up for much longer. You may look unscathed on the surface, but your qi and blood and stamina must already be close to running out, right?

”Unfortunately for you, this undying divine general has limitless stamina and can wear you down until you die, even if it takes an eternity! You couldn’t even defeat it in your peak condition, so there’s no way you can hope to win as your condition continues to deteriorate. Your fate is already sealed.”

Right at this moment, Chu Qiguang unleashed another explosive burst of speed. However, instead of targeting Yi Shuang, he rushed toward Yang Ling, catching everyone by surprise.

Yang Ling was caught completely off guard, and he was sent flying by a kick to the chest, leaving him completely bewildered.

Why are you attacking me?! I’m not working with them! I’m here against my will!

Yang Ling had barely managed to cross his arms in front of his chest to shield himself before the kick sent him flying. As soon as he was out of the way, Chu Qiguang activated the Ring of Ignorance.

Elementary-school-level mathematics was expelled from the Ring of Ignorance and swept toward Yi Shuang and Han Ying as a wave of demonic tainting.

Yang Ling had only just fallen to the ground when he heard Yi Shuang and Han Ying let out agonized howls in unison.

Both of them collapsed to the ground, clutching their heads as they stared at Chu Qiguang with intense fear and agony on their faces.

What’s happening to them? Yang Ling thought in bewilderment. Is Chu Qiguang doing this? Did he kick me out of his attack’s range just now to save me?
