132: Chapter 132 Centipede Gu!

Meanwhile.

Inside the Pill Workshop.

Ye Changge and the two Xiao sisters naturally heard the sounds of the riot outside.

The roars, the sounds of slaughter, and the screams were clearly audible even from several streets away.

Xiao Yurou's face turned slightly pale, and she subconsciously leaned closer to her sister.

Xiao Zhi hid behind Ye Changge, her small hands tightly clutching the corner of his clothes as she poked half her head out to peek cautiously out the door.

"Senior... what's happening?" Xiao Zhi's voice trembled slightly.

Ye Changge's expression remained calm; his Divine Sense had already quietly spread out, covering several surrounding streets.

His Divine Sense was far more refined and pure than that of Cultivators of the same rank; as it spread now, every blade of grass and every movement within a few miles was within his perception.

The Devilish Qi, the sword light, the slaughter... everything was under the shroud of his Divine Sense.

"Some uninvited guests have arrived at the immortal city," Ye Changge withdrew his Divine Sense and spoke indifferently. "People from the Qingshui Sword Sect are purging the demonic Cultivators who sneaked into the city."

"Demonic Cultivators?!" Xiao Yurou exclaimed, her face growing even paler.

Xiao Caiyue gently took her sister's hand, patting the back of it reassuringly, but her gaze remained on Ye Changge.

She couldn't sense that far, but seeing Ye Changge's composed and calm demeanor, her heart settled significantly.

"Husband, should we take cover?"

Ye Changge shook his head: "No need. This place is far from the battlefield; it's safe for now."

He paused, casting a thoughtful look at the occasional flashes of sword light and Devilish Qi outside the window.

"Besides... if any blind demonic Cultivators actually stumble in here, they are nothing to fear."

Although he was only at the Foundation Establishment Second Layer, his Physical Body had been continuously tempered by the Kunpeng Refining Art, especially after refining that trace of the Dragon Yang Body's Origin just now; he had already vaguely touched the threshold of Quasi-Third-Grade Body Refining.

Even if an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator were to attack him while he stood still, they might not be able to break through his Physical Body's defense.

Even if a Pseudo-Core Cultivator came, with his array of methods, he might be able to hold his own.

Xiao Caiyue looked at his profile, which exuded calm and certainty, and felt another wave of peace.

She gave a soft "Mm," said no more, and simply stood quietly by his side.

...

Meanwhile.

In mid-air.

Bai Qingyi stood in the air, her plain clothes as white as snow, her robes fluttering, holding a longsword flowing with green light.

Sword Qi swirled around her, and her gaze was as cold as frost, fixed on the figure ahead shrouded in black mist.

That figure was Qin Mo.

He had just exhausted all his strength to forcibly block several of Bai Qingyi's Sword Qi strikes, protecting Nangong Zili's escape route.

At this moment, black mist surged around him; although his aura had dropped, his Battle Intent remained sky-high.

"You have some backbone," Bai Qingyi's voice was cold.

Qin Mo grinned, revealing teeth stained red with blood.

If you want to fight, then fight!

Bai Qingyi's eyes turned cold, and she said no more.

With a flick of her wrist, the longsword in her hand suddenly erupted with brilliant sword light!

The sword light grew brighter and more intense, and in just a few breaths, it was like a green sun hanging in the sky!

"Slay!"

As the word fell.

A brilliant Sword Qi, dozens of feet long and carrying a world-destroying power, slashed down towards Qin Mo's head!

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the air was torn apart, letting out a piercing whistle!

Qin Mo's pupils constricted.

He suddenly bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood!

The Essence Blood turned into a mist of blood and was completely absorbed by the black shield in front of him!

Having absorbed the Essence Blood, the black shield instantly vibrated violently, with blood-colored patterns surfacing and spreading across it like blood vessels!

"Rise!"

Qin Mo let out a fierce roar!

The black shield grew with the wind, transforming in an instant into a massive shield several yards high, blocking his front!

However, that wasn't all!

As the shield grew larger, it began to twist and deform, turning into streaks of black light that surged toward his body like living things!

Those black streaks of light wrapped around his body, spreading rapidly to cover his limbs, torso, and head...

Within a few breaths, a suit of pitch-black full-body armor with a metallic luster wrapped him tightly!

The surface of the armor was covered in fine scale-like patterns, each scale emitting a cold luster, looking indestructible.

Two curved horns extended upward from the shoulder guards, adding a touch of ferocity and menace.

At the same time, the hand seals Qin Mo was making changed!

An ink-colored light shot out from his Dantian and hovered in front of him!

It was a Magic Treasure.

Its shape was extremely strange, like a chainsaw magnified countless times, its teeth incredibly sharp and flashing with a cold, eerie light.

But looking closely, one would find that the so-called "chainsaw" was actually composed of countless small body segments connected together!

Every segment was wriggling slightly!

Every saw tooth was a sharp leg!

That wasn't a Magic Treasure at all!

It was alive!

"Hundred-Legged Centipede Gu!"

Qin Mo gave a low growl and shoved both hands forward!

The Hundred-Legged Centipede Gu instantly expanded with the wind! Its body, originally only about a foot long, swelled to several yards in an instant!

It was pitch black with a metallic luster, its back covered in a hard shell.

The dense legs on both sides were like countless sharp sickles, waving in the air and making a tooth-gritting grinding sound!

It opened its bloody maw, filled with layers upon layers of dense fangs.

Emitting a foul stench, it lunged toward the brilliant Sword Qi!

Boom!!!

An earth-shaking explosion!

The Sword Qi and the centipede collided, erupting with blinding light!

The centipede's body vibrated violently, cracks appeared on the shell on its back, and green body fluids seeped out, only to be ground into nothingness by the Sword Qi in the next instant!

But it actually managed to withstand the strike!

It was even moving forward!

Braving that terrifying Sword Qi, it closed in on Bai Qingyi inch by inch!

Bai Qingyi's brow furrowed slightly.

She hadn't expected this demonic Cultivator to have such a trick.

However, in the next moment—

The elderly Cultivator controlling the array activated the hand seals once again!

A golden pillar of light descended from the sky, landing precisely on Qin Mo!

"Suppress!"

A vast suppressing force instantly enveloped his entire body!

Qin Mo's aura plummeted, and the light on his black armor dimmed significantly!

His body swayed, nearly falling from mid-air.

However, he laughed.

"Hahaha!"

He laughed toward the sky, his laughter filled with madness and determination!

"Suppress me?! Fine! Suppress me all you want!"

"The Spiritual Qi in this immortal city's Spiritual Vein is limited. If you use all your power on me, then their chance to open the array will be one bit greater!"

Before his voice had even faded, he suddenly waved his hand!

Receiving the command, the Hundred-Legged Centipede Gu's massive body suddenly turned, no longer rushing at Bai Qingyi, but diving downward!
