Chapter 869 - Turn of Tides
The flames blazed on relentlessly!
“Ah!”
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak released a maddened roar and his blood qi rumbled and surged. A blood mist spread and gushed towards the wound on his broken arm.
Sizzle!
However, the moment his bloodline surged to the area of his broken arm, it was burned into wisps of green smoke before it could even spray out!
Swoosh!
A tremendous amount of Dharmic power rumbled and crushed over the divine flames.
However, the divine flames shone and riddled the Dharmic power with holes, dispersing the latter instantly!
No matter how the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak circulated his bloodline and Dharmic powers, he could not extinguish the divine flames on his arm!
Only at that moment did the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak finally experience a sharp pain that was absolutely unendurable!
His forehead was filled with sweat and he looked on helplessly as his arm was consumed by the divine flames bit by bit!
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak almost passed out from the pain.
In the blink of an eye, the divine flames burned to his elbow. However, it showed no signs of stopping and merely intensified!
If he had no other means, the divine flames were going to cruise up his arm and extend to his body. In fact, it might even be able to burn his body into ashes!
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak grit his teeth with a bitter determination.
All of a sudden!
He withdrew a chilling saber from his storage and circulated his Dharmic powers with an icy expression. With a reverse slash, he cut down violently at his own elbow!
“Pfft!”
A blood mist spewed out!
An arm that was burning with flames was lopped high into the air. It fell onto the ground and turned into ashes before long.
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak shuddered for a moment and his expression turned paler.
He had dismembered his arm!
In order to protect his physical body, he cut off his arm personally!
It was too ruthless!
There was no way he could have survived till today if he hadn’t been so decisive and ruthless!
In the grass field not far away, Su Zimo endured immense pain and his bones felt like they were going to fall apart. His dragon scales had faded and his chest was in a mess of flesh and blood.
It was lucky that he managed to complete his dragonification at the final moment.
Otherwise, his chest would have been penetrated with that single counterattack from the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak!
In fact, the Dharmic power that attack possessed could even penetrate his consciousness through his body to destroy his Essence Spirit!
Although Su Zimo managed to defend against the palm strike of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak, he did not have much combat strength left.
To be precise, he did not even have the strength left to escape.
He struggled to stand up and his right hand had already returned to normal with the divine phoenix’s claw gone. Blood qi surged and tried its best to heal his internal injuries.
He gazed at the broken arm of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak and sighed gently internally, thinking about how regrettable it was.
In the end, he was a step away.
An Overlord was way stronger and harder to deal with than he had imagined!
Su Zimo wanted to retreat.
Although he looked wretched when he released Blood Escape earlier on, everything was a part of his plan.
In fact, at this final moment, he harbored a killing intent towards the Overlord and wanted to kill his way out of his situation in a heavenly-defying manner!
Unfortunately, he did not manage to succeed.
Now that the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak could not be killed even with the divine phoenix’s claw, Su Zimo had no other choice but to retreat!
Su Zimo no longer had any trump cards that could threaten an Overlord.
However, he had two talismans in his storage bag that was given to him by the old monk at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley – the Major and Minor Transference Talismans.
The Major Transference Talisman was specially refined by a Talisman Grandmaster for the Great Qian Empire in the past. It could cross a major realm and transport him back to the Great Qian Palace.
However, it was unsuitable for him to release the Major Transference Talisman at this moment.
The situation at the Thousand Demon Meet did not seem optimistic.
Su Zimo was worried with the fate of monkey and the others unknown.
Furthermore, if he were to disappear randomly without monkey and the others knowing, they were going to go insane and might create huge trouble.
The Minor Transference Talisman would create a random teleportation.
Although the distance won’t be too far, it could help Su Zimo escape from the threat before his eyes!
Previously, Lin Xuanji used a Minor Transference Talisman and escaped with Su Zimo and Night Spirit from one of the forbidden grounds, the Dragon Bone Valley.
Su Zimo made a decision and reached towards his storage bag.
Right then, something weird happened!
Before his hand made contact with his storage bag, demonic qi rumbled before his eyes. A gigantic anaconda with a grisly red forked tongue bared its sharp fangs and burrowed out of the ground!
Psst!
Su Zimo had a great shock.
His internal organs were severely injured thanks to the palm strike on his chest by the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak. Even if he could react, his body’s reaction time was a tad slower.
The anaconda slithered up swiftly from his ankle and coiled around him, rooting him on the spot.
Demonic qi dissipated.
Su Zimo lowered his head and saw that the anaconda was transformed from a rope-type Dharmic weapon – the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak had released it long ago.
The moment Su Zimo stood up, the Dharmic weapon descended and bound him firmly!
Although the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was careless at the start and his arm was crippled by Su Zimo, he was still way too far ahead be it in terms of experience or methods when he fought with his full strength!
Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.
He had not expected the counterattack of Levitating Goat Peak’s Overlord to be this decisive with so many variations!
He tried to shrink his tendons and bones. However, the rope on his body shrank together and did not accord him with any gap to escape with!
Without mistake, that rope should have been made from the tendon of an anaconda and was extremely elastic.
The moment one was bound, even their Dharmic powers would be restricted and they wouldn’t be able to escape!
The Minor Transference Talisman was right in the storage bag on Su Zimo’s waist. However, his hands were bound tightly and his Dharmic powers were sealed – he could not reach the Minor Transference Talisman at all!
The tides had turned!
The situation right now was far beyond his control.
Indeed, it would have been a decent outcome if his gambit to kill an Overlord had succeeded.
However, he would die if he lost – the price was way too great!
Su Zimo did not have time to regret his actions and spent all his energy pondering about how he should escape.
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak walked over slowly with a cold gaze. He glared at the refined face not far away with boundless hatred in his heart!
No matter what, he was still the victor of this fight.
However, the entire process was extremely treacherous!
He nearly died in the hands of a low-level fiend demon!
Furthermore, he even lost an arm in order to kill a low-level fiend demon – the price was way too great!
The gaze of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak burned slightly.
If he could make use of everything Mo possessed, including the latter’s blood, flesh, bones, marrow and secret skills, to attain a breakthrough in cultivation realm with one swoop to become a Grand Demon, he could regrow his broken limbs and revert his physical body to before!
At that time, he would be the true winner!
In the blink of an eye, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was already in front of Su Zimo.
He was skinny but tall and looked down at Su Zimo from above with a hint of coldness, excitement and cruelty in his eyes.
He was not worried that Su Zimo might counterattack.
After all, there was no way Su Zimo could retaliate when he was bound by the anaconda tendon!
Furthermore, after their exchange earlier on, the Overlord no longer underestimated this demon.
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was fully focused and guarded even against Su Zimo who was restricted and was merely waiting to die!
