#991 - I'm not interested
Changing from illusion to reality, the faceless beast transformed into black mist, engulfing all the experts present, and then uttering those words. All of this happened in an instant.
Since only Wei Changtian could see the divine beast of fortune, the other experts perceived this large patch of black mist as if it had appeared out of thin air.
That's why they were caught off guard and swallowed by the black mist, with not a single one able to escape.
Creating such a large patch of mist 'out of thin air,' Lin Zhi was certainly doing more than just 'confusing the senses.'
Because once everyone was trapped in the black mist, all sounds of fighting and combat ceased abruptly, leaving only the boundless thick fog churning silently.
Therefore...
It was also an illusion array.
Wei Changtian made this judgment almost immediately.
Not to mention that he didn't expect it, even Guankong seemed unable to react at this moment, his face filled with surprise.
His body trembled, and he turned his head towards the black mist in disbelief...
Perhaps it was because Lin Zhi's 'self-sacrificing rescue' caused him a trace of guilt.
Perhaps he regretted not having 'struck first' to kill Lin Zhi, which had now created many problems.
In any case, for whatever reason, Guankong just stood there for a moment, and then his figure flashed, rushing straight towards the black mist not far away.
He might have wanted to save people, or he might have wanted to kill people.
Regardless of Guankong's purpose, Wei Changtian would naturally not allow him to succeed.
"Clang!!!"
The sword light cut across the void, like a silver lightning bolt, and in the next moment, it shot in front of Guankong.
The latter's figure suddenly froze, staring intently at the sudden sword light, until a clear outline slowly emerged after that silver light.
"Wei Changtian."
His voice was low and hoarse, and Guankong's expression was incomparably gloomy.
The inner force throughout his body gradually became violent, and strands of scarlet evil aura flowed around him, with the illusory image of a blood-colored evil Buddha faintly visible.
In contrast, Wei Changtian looked much calmer, still just holding the Longquan Sword in front of the black mist, even his voice was without any fluctuations.
"Guankong, we meet again."
"."
Meeting again, neither of them said too much nonsense.
Or rather, in the current situation, they had nothing to say.
Since both sides wanted the other dead, and there was no possibility of reconciliation, then naturally they had to determine a victor and a loser to be able to stop.
However, compared to the last time when Wei Changtian was trapped in the Yun'an Temple illusion array, the advantage of the current situation was completely reversed.
Being in such an illusion array, Guankong could not escape.
Even teleportation techniques wouldn't work.
Because the destination of teleportation techniques could only be places 'within sight,' but everything within the illusion array was illusory.
In other words, no matter what means Guankong used, he could not leave the range of the formation before breaking it.
Unless he could trigger the Pure Severance Jade Pendant.
But how could Wei Changtian, who had already killed too many important figures, make such a low-level mistake.
Then, in this case, Guankong's 'path to survival' was only left with the last one—
Defeat Wei Changtian.
"."
His gaze became increasingly cold, and before even starting to fight, Guankong's face was already extremely unsightly.
The scene in Linchuan City last time was still vivid in his mind. Wei Changtian had shattered his evil Buddha Dharma form with just one sword, and even triggered a life-saving treasure on his body.
Although Guankong did not know of the existence of the 'Divine Strike Talisman,' he could judge that it was a kind of 'one-hit kill' power.
Of course, Guankong didn't care about such a power at the moment.
What he was really worried about was the 'hard power' that Wei Changtian showed afterwards.
Guankong at his peak, facing fourteen top-tier Third-Rank experts above the Meridian Gate, could barely manage to do that.
But since the Yun'an Temple illusion array was broken, the backlash of the formation had seriously injured him, and Guankong's strength had been greatly reduced, and he could not even exert half of his previous strength.
Therefore, Guankong was very clear that he was definitely not Wei Changtian's opponent at the moment.
If they really fought, then he would definitely be restrained, and then killed.
Then...
"Let me go, I can tell you who is behind me."
Suppressing the unwillingness in his heart, Guankong slowly retracted the scarlet glow surrounding his body, and said in a low voice, word by word:
"I think you should be very interested."
"."
The person behind Guankong?
His eyes slowly narrowed, Wei Changtian was silent for a moment, and asked in a cold voice: "Is it the person who leaked the information about the Son of Heaven?"
"Yes."
"Were you following his orders before?"
"Yes."
"Before, was it him who wanted to kill me or you who wanted to kill me?"
"There's no difference."
"Then aren't you guys..."
"Wei Changtian, I've already said enough."
Suddenly, before Wei Changtian could ask the next question, Guankong interrupted coldly: "I know the answers to all the questions."
"But if you still want to continue asking, then remove this formation first."
"."
Not far away, the dense black mist was still rolling.
Looking at each other, Wei Changtian and Guankong stopped talking, and the surroundings fell into silence.
Regarding the identity, origin, motives, and purpose of that mysterious person... Wei Changtian certainly wanted to understand these mysteries.
Although he didn't think Guankong could really know all the answers, he must know some of them.
As for whether Wei Changtian was willing to let Guankong go for this...
"Is that so? Then I won't ask."
In Guankong's instantly terrified eyes, Wei Changtian smiled and flicked his sword casually.
"Are you going to end your own life and leave a whole body? Or do you want to struggle a bit?"
"You!"
His eyes widened, Guankong never expected that Wei Changtian would not even 'bargain,' and was still determined to kill him in the face of such conditions.
"Wei Changtian! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?!"
"Boom!!!"
Along with a roar, the scarlet evil light surged again, and the bloody Buddha image appeared behind Guankong, the fierce aura suddenly rolled around.
Both a threat and a desperate struggle, Guankong knew that he could no longer show weakness at this time, and must appear strong enough to have a chance of survival.
But Wei Changtian was not moved at all, just as if he had remembered something, he suddenly smiled:
"Oh right, I almost forgot one thing."
"A conscious void entity was born in the Yun'an Temple illusion array, named Puxuan, you should know this."
"But you may not know that when the illusion array was destroyed, he entrusted me to bring you a message."
"."
His movements froze, and a trace of complex emotions flashed in Guankong's eyes.
Wei Changtian didn't know what this emotion represented, nor was he interested in knowing.
He just slowly raised the Longquan Sword, and at the same time, repeated word for word the last sentence Puxuan left for Guankong.
"Puxuan said, if you can't let go, you can't get it."
"Alright, I've delivered the message."
"As for what it means..."
"Think about it carefully on the road to the Yellow Springs."
