109: Chapter 109 It's just a monster? Kill it!
"Lord Song!!"
Fatty looked at him in shock, his eyes filled with immense astonishment.
As he watched Song Yiqing walk forward, he kept sizing up Song Yiqing's condition.
Completely intact, without a single scratch.
This... what on earth was going on?
The image of him being torn into a bloody mist by the Mongoose Gate was still vivid in his mind.
Yet now, in the blink of an eye, he had walked out from another direction.
For a moment, Fatty felt deep admiration and shock toward Song Yiqing's abilities.
Lin Tianyi's heart was also racing, but he felt the gap between the three of them and Song Yiqing even more acutely; a strong sense of crisis continued to linger in his heart.
[Challenge Mission: Kill Mongoose Gate, completed. Obtained SR-grade reward: dragon seal scroll!]
This was an item, a restrictive tool similar to an Evil-Suppressing Talisman.
The difference, however, was that using the dragon seal scroll could directly suck the target inside.
As for how powerful a person it could seal, that depended on how much Qi the user possessed.
Judging by Song Yiqing's current feeling, sealing a Mongoose Gate should be achievable.
And this would become his new trump card.
A trump card sufficient to directly overturn the tide of battle.
What surprised Song Yiqing the most, however, was that he had already stacked a pile of buffs, only for Wang Xianzhi to stand up and slay the Mongoose Gate herself.
This left him currently in a state of berserk with his Sword Heart surging.
But Kang Mo's appearance forced him to step forward.
Otherwise, wouldn't those buffs have been released for nothing?
Waste was shameful.
"Let's wrap this up quickly,"
Song Yiqing said indifferently, then lifted the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword. The Sword Heart within him was like an anxious child, impatient to rush out.
At that moment, Kang Mo shook his head slightly.
"I didn't come to fight you."
"If you're not going to fight, then get lost,"
Song Yiqing said irritably.
But Kang Mo showed no sign of being provoked. He looked at Song Yiqing calmly and said,
"The Blind Man's death was predestined. He had to pave the way for Wang Xianzhi, to let her achieve the Heartless Sword.
Only in this way can there be a real chance to turn things upside down in the depths of this Forbidden Zone.
Only then is there a chance to seize that one-in-a-million opportunity."
"Predestined?"
Song Yiqing frowned and slightly tightened his grip on the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword. He didn't believe the old man's words.
The older a person was, the more they liked to hide their true emotions.
They might appear kind on the surface, but in reality, they would be smiling even as they stabbed you in the back.
"What exactly do you mean?"
"There is no 'why',"
Kang Mo shook his head cryptically.
"We are just a group of poor wretches toyed with by the Forbidden Zone. The Blind Man will die, and I, too, will die.
It's just not time yet.
Young friend, keep walking forward.
Because the Blind Man isn't the only one paving the way."
"Hmm?"
Song Yiqing grew more and more annoyed by this riddle-talker, wishing he could just chop him down with a single sword strike right now.
However, Kang Mo's next words successfully piqued his curiosity.
"There is also Zhang Qilin."
"What?"
Song Yiqing was stunned.
In the next second, a wild wind suddenly swept through.
With a bang, the already dilapidated door suddenly burst open.
The next moment, the eerie scene of a high-hanging blood moon appeared in everyone's vision.
What was even more clearly visible was a figure hanging upside down from a tree trunk.
Blood dripped down continuously from the mangled body.
Song Yiqing's pupils constricted.
"Xiao Ge!!!"
"Don't bother shouting,"
Kang Mo spoke up to remind him.
"The Zhang family bloodline is special and easily attracts monsters. He came to pave the way for you."
"You're talking absolute bullshit!"
Song Yiqing barked angrily.
"I only met him in the Forbidden Zone. How could he be paving the way for me?
Stop talking nonsense!!"
"I am not talking nonsense,"
Kang Mo said in a heavy voice.
"Because this was all calculated in the Hexagrams, and Zhang Qilin has clearly received guidance as well.
Because of this, he entered Blood City, using sacrifice as the price to trade for your safety upon entry!"
"Nonsense!"
Song Yiqing didn't believe it at all.
Beside him, Fatty directly raised his gun and added,
"Old man, quit your damn lying!! This Demon Tower is unpredictable and bizarre. To get in here, you have to open this door.
A Sword Saint died and Wang Xianzhi was crippled just to barely open the door.
Xiao Ge is strong, but he's nowhere near that level!!
What's more, when we arrived, this door was perfectly intact!"
Having said this, he looked at Song Yiqing.
"Lord Song, this guy is full of lies. He's probably up to some scheme. Let's just take him out!"
"No,"
Song Yiqing shook his head slightly, because he could feel the greed of the Taotie Bloodline. It was a yearning for Qilin Blood, and this feeling of greedy yearning was becoming increasingly intense.
This indicated that the Blood City he was seeing now was real, not an illusion.
At the same time, he could sense that Zhang Qilin was definitely not dead!
Furthermore, Song Yiqing had a theory he wanted to confirm.
"Is it true that this so-called Blood City cannot only be entered by breaking in with brute force?
Besides the correct command, is there another way to enter?"
"You are very clever,"
Kang Mo nodded slightly and then spoke.
"Because everything is chosen and predetermined. The bloodline of the Zhang family is special and highly favored by the Forbidden Zone.
That is why Zhang Qilin could enter without needing any other means."
"..."
Song Yiqing took a deep breath. In fact, he had already sensed something strange when they first entered the area below the Six-Pillar Temple.
Although the mechanisms of the Six-Pillar Temple could be explained by Feng Shui Secret Arts as opening at set times,
he felt more and more that the mechanisms of the Six-Pillar Temple were clearly being controlled to open.
As for what was controlling all of this, he couldn't see clearly.
Even now, Kang Mo's words remained evasive, as if there were certain terms that could not be mentioned.
Kang Mo then continued,
"Do not waste Zhang Qilin's sacrifice. When his blood runs dry, the monster guarding the gate of Blood City will awaken.
The fierce battle that follows is definitely not something you—
What are you doing!!"
Before he could finish, Song Yiqing was already walking through the door with his sword in hand.
"The thing I believe in least is fate, and the thing I hate most is being manipulated.
Besides, isn't it just a monster? I'll just kill it!!"
"That is..."
Kang Mo was about to speak, but in the next second, he felt Song Yiqing's aura rising steadily, an aura that far surpassed the Blind Man's Sword Intent.
It caused his body and mind to tremble slightly.
But Song Yiqing didn't strike with his sword immediately. He needed to use a fourth sword, or even a fifth!
"Absolute Shadow!!"
"Calamity Breaker!!"
Amidst his sharp shouts, five Flying Swords instantly soared into the air!!
