Chapter 1854 — Not a Soul in Sight
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
The true qi of the second layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art, wrapped around the fire-poison true qi, was released by Wei Zhao in one burst. And under the guidance of the second-layer Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art true qi, the fire-poison true qi followed Wei Zhao's will completely, forming a red mist above the heads of the three Earth-rank experts. The mist spread so wide that it completely covered every route by which they might flee forward, backward, left, or right! By the time Zhao Guang'er realized something was wrong, it was already too late to escape. He had been too confident before and had not taken Wei Zhao seriously at all, so that now he was caught off guard by Wei Zhao's move. He wanted to retreat at flying speed, but the moment his brain gave the order to his legs, the red mist seemed to come alive and wrapped directly around his body...
Zhao Guang'er let out a miserable scream—the last sound he would ever make in his life. The next moment, his body turned to ashes...
Zhao Guang'er was like that, and Yu Liu and You Shisan were naturally no better off. Before the two of them could even react, they were wrapped entirely in the fire-poison true qi and turned straight into wisps of green smoke, vanishing into thin air!
This move was something Wei Zhao had thought up on the spot. He had used it with the attitude of either succeeding or dying, because he had no other choice. To fight desperately against two mid-stage Earth-rank experts and one late-stage Earth-rank expert with his normal strength would be a road to certain death; Wei Zhao was not so foolish as that.
And using true qi to guide the fire-poison true qi in attacking Zhao Guang'er, Yu Liu, and You Shisan was an inspiration Wei Zhao had gotten from the Little Candy Girl. Heaven-rank experts could control true qi released outside their bodies and use true qi to transmit sound. Since true qi could record sound, could it also record one's will?
So Wei Zhao had pre-set the attack routes for his true qi, letting it guide the fire-poison true qi to attack Zhao Guang'er, Yu Liu, and You Shisan: first it transformed into a red mist, then wrapped around the three men's bodies one by one, inflicting severe damage on all three!
But Wei Zhao had only intended to inflict severe damage on the three. That they were directly vaporized into ashes was beyond his expectations. This fire-poison true qi was actually so domineering that it could turn three Earth-rank experts into ashes in an instant!
And seeing this eerie phenomenon, Wei Zhao also felt a deep lingering fear. That he had not died from qi deviation was truly a stroke of luck!
In fact, although Zhao Guang'er, Yu Liu, and You Shisan were Earth-rank experts, not one of them had a fire-attribute cultivation method. If any of them had practiced a fire-attribute cultivation method, they would not have been burned to death so easily. Unfortunately, You Shisan was only an expert of the You family, not an alchemist.
What excited Wei Zhao was that he really could control the routes of the true qi he released. He could even faintly sense that, although he had pre-set the paths for his true qi, he still seemed able to maintain a certain connection with the true qi outside his body. That feeling was wondrous, but the battle had ended in an instant, so Wei Zhao had not carefully analyzed or savored it.
"Damn, where did those three go? How are they all gone? Arrow-Badge Bro's showing off again—he vaporized them all!" Shen Yushu stared blankly at the red mist slowly dispersing from the fire-poison true qi and spoke in astonishment.
Not far ahead, there was already not a soul in sight...
