Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You don’t dare to deceive me? In that case, tell me, how did a mere Rank-9 grandmaster like you do it? How did you maintain your spiritual power out of your body for a long time?”
Upon hearing Wang Yi’s words, Heyuan Tingkong suddenly heaved a sigh of relief and a fierce look flashed across his eyes. At the same time, he felt a sense of satisfaction as his scheme was succeeding.
Then, he hurriedly said, “Sir, you’ve misunderstood!”
“With my strength, it’s impossible for my spiritual power to survive away from my body for a long time.”
“I can barely maintain my spiritual power with a treasure!”
Wang Yi frowned slightly. A treasure?
What kind of treasure could support a person’s spiritual power away from their body for a long time, or even allow them to travel across worlds?
Heyuan Tingkong seemed to know what Wang Yi was thinking. He suddenly pointed at the crown of the tree and said, “Sir, the treasure I have is at the top of this tree crown. It’s a pure white nail!”
Wang Yi looked up at the top of the tree. At the same time, his spiritual power surged upwards.
Sure enough, a white nail was deeply embedded above the trunk at the top of the canopy.
With a slight movement of his spiritual power, the nail was pulled out of the tree trunk. Then, it slowly flew towards Wang Yi.
Wang Yi had actually already noticed Heyuan Tingkong’s abnormal reaction. However, he was also a bold person and did not care at all what schemes the other party had!
Meanwhile, Heyuan Tingkong stared intently at Wang Yi, but he kept shouting in his heart, “Hurry up and take it! Hurry up and take it!”
Wang Yi reached out and simply grabbed the white nail. Suddenly, he felt a chill in his palm.
After seeing Wang Yi take the item, Heyuan Tingkong stopped pretending and laughed crazily. “Haha! Stupid human, you actually dare to touch a treasure from my race!”
“How is it? Do you feel cold all over now? You can’t use your spiritual power and true qi, right?”
Heyuan Tingkong couldn’t help but feel proud of himself. He was already doomed to die, but he was still thinking about how he could lure Wang Yi to take the God-Subduing Needle!
However, he did not expect that Wang Yi would throw himself into the trap before he could lure Wang Yi out.
As for the God-Subduing Needle, it was made of the God-Subduing Tree. If a spiritual body entered the needle, there would be no effect.
Unfortunately, if one did not know this trick and rashly used their physical
body to touch it, except for a Connate expert, a top grandmaster would find that their true qi and spiritual power had been suppressed !
However, in the next moment, his smug expression froze on his face and was replaced by endless fear!
Crack!
There was the sound of breaking glass, and the space around them seemed to tremble slightly.
A golden saber tip suddenly appeared out of thin air, as if it wanted to break free from another latitude and reveal its divine might to the world!
Perhaps this peerless divine saber was too powerful and the world could not withstand it. Thus, the saber could not completely take form, and only a golden tip could be seen.
The tip of the saber shone with boundless golden light. Its power was terrifying. Then, it slashed towards the pure white God-Subduing Needle!
Bang!
Wang Yi simply felt a slight chill in his hand.
Before he could do anything else, the golden God Slaying Saber automatically appeared and directly shattered the God -Subduing Needle!
“That’s impossible! Impossible! How were you not suppressed? You can’t be a Connate expert!”
Heyuan Tingkong’s eyes were filled with disbelief as he could not help but roar.
That was the God-Subduing Needle! It was a treasure that could suppress all cultivators below the Connate Realm.
How could he accept that it was actually shattered by a martial artist who was not at the Connate Realm? How could he not be shocked? How could he not be afraid?!
A cold glint flashed across Wang Yi’s eyes and he was slightly angry. He knew that this thief would not be so easy to deal with. Indeed, he was trying to
scheme against him!
Wang Yi did not waste any time. He pointed his finger forward. Then, a flame appeared out of thin air and floated towards the other party.
The moment the flame approached Heyuan Tingkong, it had already turned into a raging sea of flames!
“Ah! Lord, I was wrong. Please give me another chance!”
Heyuan Tingkongs terrified voice sounded in the sea of fire. His voice kept trembling as if he was enduring great pain.
However, Wang Yi turned a deaf ear to this. This kind of person had to be dealt with ruthlessly again so that he would truly know fear.
Otherwise, he would definitely not be obedient. He would definitely play tricks again!
The sea of fire was burning non-stop. Heyuan Tingkong was screaming in pain, begging for mercy, and cursing.
Only when the sea of fire was completely silent did Wang Yi wave his hand and disperse the sea of fire!
At this moment, Heyuan Tingkong looked extremely miserable. There was no life in his eyes, only dullness, and dense lifelessness!
He was originally a meter tall, but he was now less than half a meter tall. He simply stood there like a baby.
Meanwhile, the black aura on his body had already become extremely thin, and his figure was faintly discernible. It was difficult for him to even maintain his human form as if a gust of wind could blow him away!
Wang Yi was not in the mood to waste his breath on Heyuan Tingkong. He simply asked what he wanted to know the most. “Where is the spatial rift?”
Although his voice was very calm, it sounded like the roar of an evil spirit or the gods to Heyuan Tingkong. As a result, his body shuddered.
His eyes also regained some clarity. When he looked up and saw Wang Yi, it was as if he had seen a peerless god. He kept shaking his head and shouting in fear. “I don’t know! I don’t know!”
“Hmph!’
A cold snort sounded. Seeing that Heyuan Tingkong was not very tactful, Wang Yi was furious. A flame appeared in front of him again.
Upon seeing the flames appear, Heyuan Tingkong seemed to have seen the most terrifying thing in the world. He let out a shrill scream and hurriedly explained.
“Lord, I really don’t know. After I came out of the spatial rift, I was directly guided here by the God-Subduing Needle. I don’t know where the spatial rift
Wang Yi’s expression gradually turned cold, and his voice became extremely cold. “Hmph! You still dare to lie? Even an ordinary top-notch grandmaster will definitely die if they touch the God-Subduing Needle!”
“Tell me, who can nail it to the top of this tree to receive you in this world?”
Seeing that Wang Yi was really angry, Heyuan Tingkong’s body trembled even more. He hurriedly said, “Sir, although this God-Subduing Needle is powerful, the holder won’t be affected as long as the God-Subduing Needle is contained in a jade artifact!”
“We sent the God-Subduing Needles through the spatial rift. Then, the humans of this world will receive them. After that, they will follow the instructions given and send the God -Subduing Needles to different places!”
“The person who gave the instructions is a true expert of our race. His combat strength is at least in the Connate Realm, and the humans who received him are all under his jurisdiction. I don’t knowwho the humans are!”
Wang Yi thought for a moment and felt that Heyuan Tingkong shouldn’t be lying this time. Then, he was suddenly stunned and couldn’t help but curse.. “Damn it! If you don’t know anything, what’s the use of keeping you alive?!”
