Chapter 163: Counterattack

However, at this moment, he was standing three zhang away from Su Jingzhen, maintaining an absolutely safe distance.Although he had confidence in his Soul-Breaking Needle, in the cultivation world, unexpected events could occur at any time.

He wouldn’t take risks when he had an absolute advantage.

At least, he wouldn’t take risks before the poison took effect.

At this time, the numbness on Su Jingzhen’s shoulder was still spreading, and it was continuously spreading towards his body.

He felt a sense of despair in his heart, thinking, “This is… Experience is indeed accumulated through life-and-death struggles.”

He had basically not fought with anyone for two and a half years, and his combat experience was still lacking.

Whether it was against the Pink Poisonous Woman on Clear Wind Mountain or against this ugly thing now, his inexperience was the reason he was so quickly affected.

The toxin from the Soul-Breaking Needle was spreading extremely fast, reaching his chest in just a few breaths.

At this time, he faintly felt that the spider mark on his chest was emitting heat.

It was as if a special energy was emanating from the spider mark, driving away the numbness.

Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat, and then he felt a surge of excitement.

“This is… Is this using poison to counter poison?”

The Pink Poisonous Woman’s toxin was incredibly overbearing, and it seemed that it wouldn’t allow any other toxin to exist within Su Jingzhen’s body.

Apparently, the Pink Poisonous Woman’s toxin was much more overbearing than the toxin on the Soul-Breaking Needle.

Very quickly, the numbness on his body disappeared, leaving only a slight pain on his left shoulder.

But at this time, Su Jingzhen intentionally revealed a pained expression on his face, even assuming a half-kneeling posture.

From the ugly thing’s words, it was clear that it was extremely confident in its Soul-Breaking Needle, and Su Jingzhen took advantage of this.

He pretended to be completely defeated, and the ugly thing didn’t suspect anything.

“Hahaha, Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch!”

“You will be the highest-ranking person to die at my hands in the past two years!”

“And it’s precisely this that makes my sense of accomplishment even more fulfilling!”

At this time, the ugly thing’s twisted face revealed a sinister smile, which was even more terrifying.

As it spoke, the ugly thing took a step closer to Su Jingzhen.

It knew that Su Jingzhen was poisoned and was confident that he didn’t need to launch any other attacks, as the toxin on the Soul-Breaking Needle was enough to take Su Jingzhen’s life.

He had hunted down many targets stronger than Su Jingzhen, and they had all fallen to his Soul-Breaking Needle. Now, he only needed to behead Su Jingzhen and bring it back to complete his mission.

However, at this time, Su Jingzhen’s heart was also filled with excitement.

“You… are so despicable!”

But his eyes revealed a hint of despair, and his body was trembling in the rain. He even forced his internal blood energy to surge, spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

The scene was extremely tragic, like a person who was desperate and unwilling to die.

As a seasoned actor, Su Jingzhen’s performance was flawless, without any cracks.

The more tragic he appeared, the more excited and proud the ugly thing became.

The transparent sword in its hand was emitting a cold, eerie glow, and its mouth was curled into a sinister smile.

For a professional assassin like this, completing a mission would always bring a sense of satisfaction.

“Despicable? In the cultivation world, there’s no such thing as despicable or not. There’s only success or failure. You, as the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect, can’t even see through this. Be careful in your next life.”

The ugly thing sneered at Su Jingzhen’s “helpless rage”.

“Ten steps…”

“Eight steps…”

“…”

“Five steps…”

Su Jingzhen’s face still maintained a desperate expression, but his heart was silently calculating the distance between him and the ugly thing.

He tightly gripped the black brick in his hand, which was pressed against the ground, and the rain was washing over it. The ugly thing didn’t notice this.

From Su Jingzhen’s perspective, his right hand was propping himself up on the ground, and the black brick blended in with the ground tiles.

“Three steps!”

Before long, the ugly thing walked directly into Su Jingzhen’s three-step range.

At this time, the sword in its hand suddenly swung down.

The sword energy was extremely fierce, directly slashing towards Su Jingzhen’s neck.

For the ugly thing, this assassination had already been delayed for too long, and it just wanted to finish the job quickly.

It was also afraid that if it took any longer, the cultivators from the Evil Moon Sect would discover something.

He had killed many people and completed many difficult assassination missions, but his cultivation was still not at the Golden Core level.

If the Evil Moon Sect cultivators were to arrive, he would have a hard time escaping.

However, in the instant he swung his sword, Su Jingzhen’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red.

The blood energy within him suddenly ignited!

At this moment, he didn’t hesitate to activate the Bloodthirst secret technique!

As someone who had already reached the seventh layer of the Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo, his blood energy nearly doubled in an instant.

Without any hesitation, Su Jingzhen rolled forward, just in time to face the ugly creature.

The distance was just right!

At this moment, he lifted his head and revealed a row of white teeth to the creature.

Then, his right hand’s Labor Palace acupoint suddenly burst forth, injecting a violent blood energy into the black brick, which was sent flying towards the creature’s Dantian.

At this moment, under the amplification of Bloodthirst, Su Jingzhen’s speed was extremely fast, and as he rolled, the creature’s sword swung empty air.

The creature’s triangular eyes flashed with fear as it faced the violent gust of wind transmitted through the black brick.

But in this critical moment, a golden light burst forth from the creature’s Dantian, revealing a protective talisman!

“Boom!”

In an instant, the golden light on the talisman suddenly dissipated.

It was clear that the talisman’s defensive capabilities couldn’t completely withstand Su Jingzhen’s full-powered attack under the amplification of Bloodthirst.

The blood energy of the seventh layer of the Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo, amplified by Bloodthirst, had nearly doubled, already touching the threshold of the Golden Core stage.

The talisman’s power resisted most of the brick’s might, but the creature’s Dantian still transmitted a piercing pain.

Its face turned pale as it tried to retreat in panic.

Then, Su Jingzhen’s speed reached its peak in all aspects.

In an instant, he stuck to the creature like a leech.

Another brick was sent flying, but due to the angle, it could only hit the creature’s lower abdomen.

Similarly, it was a cunning and venomous attack.

It wasn’t that Su Jingzhen had a special preference for this. seaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

At this time, the creature couldn’t deploy its other talismans in time.

Letting this brick hit its mark.

“Boom!”

Su Jingzhen seemed to hear the sound of an egg cracking.

The next instant, the creature was sent flying sideways.

Its lower body was already a bloody mess.

“Ah!!”

A heart-wrenching scream erupted.

Even if the creature was a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, it couldn’t withstand this sudden change.

And at this time, Su Jingzhen wouldn’t show any mercy.

The blood energy in his Surging Spring acupoints suddenly surged, and he took a step forward, his entire body chasing after the creature like a human cannonball.

He struck the creature’s head with another brick!
