"This old man is strong." Jin Rou couldn't help but mutter under his breath. Thoughbhe already expected that this existence was strong, he was still surprised nevertheless.
Just imagine, an immortal progenitor being capable of rendering Jin Rou, a zenith god, on defensive? Surely, the power of darkness was amazing.
The old man suddenly stopped his attacks and looked at Jin Rou. He smiled and said, "Daoist Friend, what's the matter? Why aren't you attacking me?"
This statement had full marks of mockery. Though the voice was calm and amiable, one could feel the insult in his words.
"It seems like taking the offensive makes you quite arrogant." Jin Rou chuckled.
"Arrogant? That's not the right word for that, Daoist Friend." The old man shook his head and said, "I am just confident of my capabilities. I, Eyeright Progenitor, has always been."
Eyeright Progenitor! Xiu'er was instantly came into a realization at this point. To think that this old man was the almost legendary Eyeright Progenitor!
Eyeright Progenitor was someone who was renowned in the God's Realm. He was a rare genius that swept through the world without so much difficulty.
Furthermore, he once challenged Lightsaber True God in a match when they were younger! As they were in the same generation and hot-headed youth, they always clashed heads but Eyeright Progenitor had always been the loser. In all of their matches, Lightsaber was always the victor.
But this didn't deter the progenitor from seeking greater strength and dao. He cultivated with all his might and best. He passed millions of setbacks and tribulations while taking his imperial path.
And now, he became one of the very few immortal progenitors of this world. Too bad though, he wasn't able to keep on the right track and instead seek darkness to attain greater power.
"We are in a deep trouble." Xiu'er was worried. Eyeright was someone who was capable of contending against Lightsaber, a legendary figure of this world. All he could do was pray for all the gods out there that Jin Rou would be able to come into a solution.
" Daoist Friend, we are taking too long here." Eyeright Progenitor said with impatience, "I'm afraid I have to end this now."
"End? Yes, sure. But the one who's going to die is you." Jin Rou was contemplating what systems he would use in order to provide maximum damage to the target yet minimum to the surroundings. After all, he couldn't just wipe this place out since Xiu'er has still some use to it.
"..." Eyeright couldn't help but feel that the air had changed. It looked like Jin Rou was finally getting serious against him.
Soon, snake-like bolts of blue lightning coiled Jin Rou's body. The clouds became gloomy and heavy. As if rain and thundershowers were going to descend to this place. He looked like a lightning god who's capable of turning everything, even this world, into ashes.
"Hmm!" Eyeright was feeling uneasy now and decided to throw several rays of black lights in the direction of Jin Rou. This rays were fast enough that normal eyes couldn't follow it through. Not to mention, it seemed the piercing power had increased several times more.
"Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!" When the rays touched Jin Rou, it just suddenly disappeared as if they didn't exist at all.
"The lightning can negate the rays?" Eyeright was stumped and confused. Remember, those rays of lights were several times stronger than the previous attacks. Yet, it couldn't pierce through Jin Rou's lightning, "No, it must be something like it can negate anything it touched."
Eyeright's latter conclusion was the truth. With how powerful the lightnings created by Jin Rou, it was impossible for it to be pierced unless the attack was stronger than the lightning itself.
"Alright, my turn." Jin Rou said. He bent his knees and charged forward to Eyeright Progenitor.
"Boom!" After which, Jin Rou threw a punch filled with lightning against Eyeright.
"!!" The progenitor was shocked with how powerful this punch was as it threw him away in a distance. Furthermore, he felt that his stomach churned and he almost vomit, but he forced it down.
"Activate!" Eyeright could feel the impending danger and immediately released all his darkness aura, engulfing the entire place into a solitary of darkness, "One Eye To Destroy!"
"Bam!" Soon, an eye covered with darkness appeared above Eyeright. This eye was terrifying that it could make anyone tremble in fear and kneel down in submission.
"Even your eyes has been tainted by darkness." Jin Rou said with a cold tone, "You have surely expressed your deliverance to the evil path."
"This is the path I chose to walked on." Eyeright said, "And I have no regrets even if I die here. After all, even I have so many lives, I will still choose this path, the pursue of darkness dao."
"Then, just die." Jin Rou moved in a light-like speed that he left afterimages.
"Ksssh!" Next, he appeared 50 meters away from the progenitor and threw a more aggressive punch. But Eyeright had already became prepared, he activated his eye and tens of barriers appeared between him and Jin Rou.
"Kssh! Kssh! Kssh!" Glass-like breaking reverberated loudly in the entire place as Jin Rou was piercing through with his punch.
"Boom!" Just when Jin Rou was about to break the last barrier, an explosion exploded right in front of him which made him backed him off a few steps.
Though the explosion didn't injure Jin Rou, his right hand was scratched. There appeared a small wound which was bleeding.
This was the first time Jin Rou had bled. And in a sense, it was unthinkable. Even during his battle against his grandmother, he didn't bleed at all.
In the past, he thought that true gods and progenitors were weak in the eyes of zenith gods. But it seemed that it wasn't the case right now. There might be a gap between them, but the gap wasn't vast enough to be crossed. Of course, the crossing was almost next to impossible.
And to think this old man, Eyeright Progenitor, could put up a fight against Jin Rou and even scratched him.
Jin Rou was right not to underestimate his enemy.
