Chapter 153: Why Is It Still You?!
Perfect! Itâs the Young Masterâs Heavenly Demon Sky-Peering Technique!
A secret art that sacrifices the karmic fates of other living beings to glimpse a fragment of destinyâŠ
Only a demonic prodigy like the Young Master could possibly master such a technique!
Mu Baishuangâs gaze grew increasingly intoxicated.
Her fingertips unconsciously traced circles on her thigh.
These supple, fair thighs had never been touched by any disciple of Chixiao Peak. Even if someone accidentally brushed her hand, she would scrub it with a handkerchief for half a day.
Yet now, her mind was filled with visions of the Young Masterâs warm hands gliding over her skin...
From the mirror, agonized wails rang out.
The cries came from the dark prison behind the Heavenly Demon Young Master.
Layer upon layer of cages intertwined in a complex formation, clearly part of a sinister array. A chilling demonic aura spread through the cave, making it resemble hell itself.
Within the cages were imprisoned cultivators and mortals alike.
At this moment, countless streams of blood and life force flowed into the Heavenly Demon Young Master.
His pupils glowed with a commanding radiance.
He saw it.
He saw the silhouette of a white-haired sword cultivator.
That man was surrounded by black dragons, wielding a black-scaled longsword.
That sword cultivatorâŠ
ActuallyâŠ
Looked more handsome than him?!
Even from just a glimpse of his back, the Heavenly Demon Young Master reached this undeniable conclusion.
Unacceptable.
As the Number One Most Handsome Demon Cultivator in the Cangyun Realm, his looks were sacred, indisputable, and absolute.
âTrying to act mysterious? Let me see your face!â
He intensified his Heavenly Demon Sky-Peering Technique, sacrificing more prisoners.
One by one, the cultivators and mortals in the cages exploded into clouds of blood.
As the last sacrifice perished, the blood pool churned violently, its stench overwhelming.
And at that momentâŠ
He finally saw the sword cultivatorâs face.
âWha⊠What⊠WHAT THE HELL?!â
Staring at that faceâŠ
The unreasonably, outrageously, devastatingly handsome faceâŠ
The Heavenly Demon Young Master felt his Qi violently recoil, surging straight into his heart and lungs.
âPUHâ!!!â
He clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His aura instantly weakened.
âAh! Young Master!â
Mu Baishuang snapped out of her daze, completely abandoning her fantasies. She watched in horror as the Young Masterâs demonic eyesâpierced through by sword intentâbegan bleeding.
A backlash from divining the heavens.
Even though the Young Master had used a secret technique, he still suffered backlashâŠ
That meant the one he had spied on had greater mastery over fate than someone trained in the Heavenly Demon Sky-Peering Technique?!
How was that possible?!
Just who was this person⊠who had secretly thwarted the Heavenly Demon Sectâs plans?
She needed to investigate.
âYoung Master, are you alright? Youâre bleedingâŠâ
Soaking in the blood pool, the Heavenly Demon Young Master, Ji Dong, wiped the blood from his lips and gritted his teeth.
âIâm fine. Those demonic cultivators we planted in righteous sects were bound to be discovered sooner or later. Their deaths mean nothing⊠They were always part of my plan.â
âAs expected of the Young Master!â
Mu Baishuangâs eyes shone with admiration.
No matter the situation, the Young Master always planned ahead.
Unlike herâshe always got emotional when things happenedâŠ
How embarrassing.
âBut youâŠâ Ji Dongâs cold gaze pierced through the mirror, locking onto Mu Baishuang.
âYou told me Qingyun Sect had a Taiyin Dao Body. When are you going to bring it to me?â
Mu Baishuangâs face instantly turned pale.
She hesitated, then lowered her head and whispered, âYoung Master, the Taiyin Dao Body⊠was taken by a cultivator. It seems that person has accepted them as a discipleâŠâ
She shivered under the Young Masterâs increasingly icy stare and quickly pledged herself to the task.
âBut that person will definitely enter the Zhongzhou Secret Realm! When the time comes, I will personally ensure that special physique is yours!â
âHmph! Remember what you said!â
Ji Dong dismissed the mirror projection with a flick of his hand.
He tried to regulate his breathâŠ
But the more he circulated his Qi, the more chaotic it became.
A rogue sword intent rampaged through his meridians.
Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth again.
He barely managed to suppress it.
The backlash had been insane.
He had merely glanced at that sword cultivator and lost an entire month of cultivation.
Unbelievable!
âHeh⊠I might not be able to deal with that old monster⊠But canât I still crush that special physiqueâs master?â
Ji Dong once again began divining the heavens.
His plan was simple.
Mu Baishuang would handle the special physique.
He would handle their master.
A two-pronged approach! Victory was assured!
Moments laterâŠ
âPUHâ!!!â
The cave echoed with the violent sound of projectile vomiting blood.
Followed immediately by a hysterical scream.
âAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! ITâS YOU!â
âITâS STILL YOU?!â
...
...
Noon had arrived.
It was time for Heavenly Divination.
Chen Huaiâan bathed, changed, and recharged his energy.
With a murderous resolve, he logged into the game.
Today, either the cancer cells die⊠or he does.
Chen Huaiâan had spoken.
His killing intent toward cancer cells was so strong that he completely ignored the eager, expectant look in Li Qingranâs eyes.
Heavenly DivinationâStart!
âWhat pill can suppress the demonic cancer cells in my body?â
ăPlayer is currently under the "Lost Fortune" debuff. This divination is free, but will increase your "Lost Fortune" stack by two layers. Continue?ă
Chen Huaiâan glanced at his 998 layers of "Lost Fortune" and sneered.
What difference do two more make?
He had so many that he was already numb to it.
Do it, damn it!
ăHeavenly Divination in progressâŠă
A sudden shift in the winds swept across the Cangyun Realm.
Countless cultivators looked up in alarm.
ăHeavenly Divination complete.ă
ăThe Hundred Herbs Detox Pill can completely suppress the demonic cancer cells in the playerâs body. (Click for details)ă
Chen Huaiâan: I click.
ăDetails: The Hundred Herbs Detox Pill, also known as the Hundred Herbs Rebirth Pill, works by upgrading all normal cells in the user's body. Since toxins cannot affect upgraded "super cells," cultivators who consume this pill gain immunity to all poisons.ă
ââŠI see.â
Chen Huaiâan understood.
Right now, the reason he couldnât defeat his cancer cellsâŠ
Was because the demonic cancer cells were on a higher level than his normal cells.
To overcome them, he needed to raise his cultivation.
But the problem wasâhis cancer cells would grow stronger alongside him.
In this scenario, any nourishment was just feeding the cancer.
Even detox pills were uselessâŠ
Because cancer wasnât a toxin.
Which meantâthe Hundred Herbs Detox Pill was the only cure.
Instead of removing the diseaseâŠ
It directly upgraded his bodyâs resistance.
ââŠHeh.â
Chen Huaiâan let out a bitter chuckle.
His gaze dimmed.
âNo matter how much I struggle⊠in the end, the one who can save me⊠is still my Qingran baby.â
âShe still has to risk herself in the Zhongzhou Secret RealmâŠâ
âIâm powerless⊠utterly powerless⊠hahahahaâŠâ
"Master, I finished making your pillowcase~"
A soft, gentle voice chimed from the screen, carrying nervous excitement.
Chen Huaiâan snapped back to reality.
His eyes narrowedâŠ
His lips curled into a sinister smirk.
Confidence. Determination. Belief.
All returned to his once lifeless gaze.
Oh?
A pillowcase made of special fabric?
Interesting.
With this pillowcaseâŠ
As long as he buried his face in it day and nightâŠ
What could possibly be impossible for Immortal Chen?!
