Chapter 745 - Deadly Poison

Three minutes. Crestflow had a grave expression. It was too little of a time to activate it. However, he had no choice, "I think it's possible. However, I will be consuming everything I have."

"That's no problem. We will be compensating you after we escape here." Old Black said, "Now, do your job. Let's get out of here alive."

With Han Li here, there's no choice but to run away. Fight him? That's virtually impossible as they'd only give away their lives.

"Are you done saying your goodbyes to each other?" Jin Rou said. There was plastered smile on his face.

"Don't get too full of yourself, Damned Li." Old White gritted his teeth. He hated Han Li's smile even from the beginning, "Times are changing, you don't know what's going to happen."

"That's true. But there's one thing I know." Jin Rou smirked, "That you all are trying to escape. Ah, do you really think that you can return to your nests alive now that you've shown me your flesh in the open?"

"Wham! Wham! Wham!" Three huge metal rods appeared out of Jin Rou's above space. Each was embroidered with lightning energy giving out a 'zzz' sound.

Jin Rou moved his fingers and the huge rods moved to attack the three elders.

"Activate!" Old Black stepped up and activated his palace. Then, a negative energy flew out and covered the entire group.

"Boom! Boom!" The metal rods clashed with the negative energy, creating wild and violent effects around the vicinity. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that it almost destroyed everything in the path!

Jin Rou smiled. He wasn't surprised that they couldn't defend from it. Of course, it wasn't the end also. The metal rods became bigger and bigger as it covered the entire sky.

It's twenty times larger than the previous ones.

"How about you defend yourself from this, too?" Jin Rou chuckled, "Be sure not to die so yet."

"Boom! Boom!" The larger rods slammed itself against the negative energy. But this time, the energy couldn't keep up with it and immediately dissipated. As a result, the next hit directly hit the three elders, throwing them in a distance.

"Agh!" All of them bumped into a mountain, creating large cracks around as they spat a mouthful of bad blood. They were already old now, so this attack created such grave effects on them.

Old Black was the first one to stand up and said, "You two, snap out of it! Stop being scared or all of us will die!"

The two elders were still scared shitless because of Han Li's appearance. Of the three elders, these two tasted the horror of Han Li's personality that's why they were acting like this.

"They know what's going to happen to them, and they accept it. That's why they're like that." Jin Rou moved over while speaking to the injured elders, "But it's unfortunate, you elders would have a decent future if you just hid yourself. Who knows, you might even rule the Nine Heavens when I'm gone."

"Such nonsense." Old Monk was finally pulling himself. He ditched a bad blood from his mouth and said, "With your dogs all around the Nine Heavens, how could we have the world?"

Jin Rou smirked. The dogs he was talking about was the strong followers he tasked to guard the world. If an imminent catastrophe were to come to Nine Heavens, they'd show up themselves and save it. With their power level, they had the capabilities of doing so thus Han Li could entrust it to them.

For the Ancient Pugans, it's not just Han Li who's a large threat to them. There were many still who could eradicate them with just a move of their fingers.

"Why are you here? Didn't you die from the Eighth Challenge?" Old White was filled with hatred. They fully thought that Han Li really died back then. After all, there was no news about him returning alive just like the previous challenges.

"I told you, how can I die if you guys are still breathing well?" Jin Rou chuckled, "The Heavens is not enough to kill me, and I have proven that many times."

It was true. Han Li had always returned to Nine Heavens even after failing to defeat the Heavens. Although he was always filled with grave injuries after the battle, the fact that he was still alive was still there. Aside from that, he was getting stronger and stronger everytime he confront the Heavens.

It was just an unfortunate moment during the Eighth Challenge. Han Li was truly dead as he couldn't fight off the injuries he suffered this time around. If not for Jin Rou possessing the body, there was no way Han Li would show up to the world once again.

"Alright, I know that you all are buying time. But since I don't intend to let you all escape, let me end your lives now." Jin Rou said as he backed off.

The three elders were horrified and immediately raised their guards to what was coming. 30 seconds left before Crestflow could activate the escape route, they had to survive this no matter what.

"No need to raise your guards. It's useless. After all, the chemical has already entered your bodies." Jin Rou was smiling sinisterly.

The three elders were confused what did that mean. However, they immediately found the answer when they felt their bodies paralyzing.

Then, they had a convulsion, making their bodies shake violently. They couldn't also breathe properly, making them kneel the ground and try to breathe.

Their eyes were bloodshot as they looked at Jin Rou. Their eyes were filled with hatred and grievance. If there was a chance, they'd want to slice him up into thousand pieces!

"Ah, still stupid as ever. Can't even detect a poison of that level." Jin Rou chuckled as he watched the three elders struggle in vain. The looks on their faces were somewhat satisfying.

Eventually, two elders died after much struggle. However, Old Black was still struggling. It's as if he already expected that there was a poison and immediately tried to counter it. However, it was still useless as Jin Rou's poison was something that only Jin Rou had the cure.. Even the slightest of it would kill monarchs and lords.
