Chapter 1171: Another Secret Skill of Bloody Soul Temple

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

“Bloody Soul Temple’s secret methods rank first in Taixia Country. Do you really think that you could kill me in this way...”

Han Zhengfang’s face turned grim all of a sudden. When he was sustaining hundreds of times’ strikes, he broke the tip of his tongue by the teeth; closely after that, he spurted out a mouthful of blood out of his mouth. The blood didn’t diffuse; instead, it suspended in front of Han Zhengfang. After that, Han Zhengfang broke his left thumb by the teeth and broke the middle place between his eyebrows by his right thumb. Closely after that, a small drop of blood flew out of his mouth, left thumb and forehead at the same time while giving out a brilliant red light. They mixed with each other at once and turned into 2 tadpole-sized bizarre runes that gave out the brilliant glow.

Han Zhengfang pointed at Zhang Tie. Closely after that, one of the two runes immediately entered his forehead while the other one darted towards Zhang Tie like a lightning bolt after breaking through Han Zhengfang’s protective battle qi.

Although Zhang Tie was over 50 m away from Han Zhengfang, as he had witnessed Han Zhengfang’s secret methods and means in the emperor’s imperial city, he was vigilant about Han Zhengfang’s movements very much. The moment Zhang Tie saw Han Zhengfang breaking his tongue tip, spurting out blood and the other similar self-mutilating behaviors, Zhang Tie immediately expanded the distance between them and reached over 80 m away from Han Zhengfang. At the same time, he expanded his protective battle qi to its utmost extent and prepared to respond to the coming danger.

However, Zhang Tie underestimated the power of the secret method of Bloody Soul Temple.

The moment the red rune flew out of Han Zhengfang’s protective battle qi, Zhang Tie had intended to block it with a silver secret shield. Unimaginably, the rune directly penetrated through Zhang Tie’s silver secret shield like a visionary object. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived at Zhang Tie’s side. Being shocked too much, Zhang Tie hurriedly dodged from it at his highest speed. However, the closer the rune was to Zhang Tie, the faster it would move. It just chased after Zhang Tie like a lightning bolt.

Zhang Tie had changed more than 300 locations in one second, leaving many visional shadows in Canglan Palace. Even though, the rune still caught up with Zhang Tie like a massless visional shadow. It penetrated through Zhang Tie’s second silver secret shield, Zhang Tie’s battle qi strikes, Zhang Tie’s protective battle qi and Chaos before falling onto Zhang Tie.

The moment that rune fell onto Zhang Tie’s body, Zhang Tie had changed his face.

He thought it was a sharp killing skill; however, he had not imagined that he didn’t even lose one hair after being hit by the rune; neither did he feel painful or itchy. When Zhang Tie felt weird, he suddenly had an inconceivable feeling, which was very similar to the feeling when he formed a 3-in-1 battle formation with the other 2 knights through knight’s consciousness. It was even deeper than the ties of 3-in-1 battle formation.

The 3-in-1 battle formation was connected by different knights’ consciousness; however, after being hit by Han Zhengfang’s rune, Zhang Tie felt that his chakras had been closely tied with that of Han Zhengfang like two high-power magnets being drawn together tightly.

Each knight’s chakras were composed of element crystals in the material world or element crystals in the Elements Realm. Knights always stayed with their chakras. However, chakras existed in a special pattern. Being neither in the elements realm nor the material world, it was a mode of existence between elements realm and the material world. Charkas were invisible and untouchable; however, they indeed existed.

Zhang Tie had not imagined that there was a secret skill of Bloody Soul Temple that could directly act upon one’s chakras. Besides Purgatory Samsara Method, it was his first time to see another secret method that could act upon one’s chakras.

Facing the irresistible attraction caused by chakras, Zhang Tie’s body seemed to become the appendage of his chakras and a nail on a super-powerful magnet. When two magnets attached together, Zhang Tie was unconsciously drawn towards Han Zhengfang by the attraction between their chakras. That was an irresistible pulling force, which carried the qi of the elements realm. Like a waterfall that rushed down from a high place, this pulling force was hard to refuse.

When Zhang Tie was worried whether this great strength would involve him in the close combat that was desired by Han Zhengfang, this pulling force suddenly disappeared when he was less than 30 m away from Han Zhengfang. Because their chakras had been closely attached together at this moment. Neither could he further approach nor stay farther away from Han Zhengfang. Neither could Han Zhengfang.

‘What does that mean?’ Zhang Tie doubted, ‘Even though Han Zhengfang wants to pull me closer by a secret method, he could not rush to the front of me in such a distance; neither could it influence my strike against him.

When Zhang Tie was pulled closer to Han Zhengfang, he didn’t stop his strikes against Han Zhengfang.

“What’s this secret method of Bloody Soul Temple? Do you think that you could threaten me in this way?” Zhang Tie’s muffled voice drifted from the breathing holes under his ears before resonating in the ruined Canglan Palace.

Since they started the combat, it was Zhang Tie’s first time to open his mouth.

Zhang Tie’s original voice didn’t sound mature; however, after being drifted from the breathing holes under his ears, his voice turned utterly different. It carried a strange metallic resonance. Of course, Han Zhengfang couldn’t figure out Zhang Tie’s identity through his voice.

Zhang Tie ignored Han Zhengfang’s question just now because he didn’t want to get a revenge from Han Zhengfang’s subordinates. As Han Zhengfang probably carried remote-sensing crystals which were used to contact the other major figures of Heavens Reaching Church. If Zhang Tie exposed his real identity, Han Zhengfang might send this message to the other remnants of Heavens Reaching Church. As a result, they might revenge Zhang Tie and Huaiyuan Palace. If so, what Zhang Tie arranged tonight were all in vain; additionally, nobody could enjoy such a meal that Zhang Tie prepared for the Gobbling Party and Meng Shidao.

Because of this reason, Zhang Tie became silent until he was curious about this secret method of Han Zhengfang.

“This is the lock of bloody chakras of Bloody Soul Temple! You are really something as you could make me use this skill.” Han Zhengfang revealed a faint confident smile on his grim and aggressive face, “You will know the effect of this secret skill soon!”

“Really?”

The two people talked with each other as they fought.

“Of course, look at what’s on the earth?” Han Zhengfang pointed at the ground.

Zhang Tie threw a glance at the ground and found scarlet magma was gurgling out of a hole which was as large as a bowl.

When he blocked Han Zhengfang’s strike by one shield just now, he caused such a hole. Actually, the Canglan Palace of Bloody Soul Temple was built on an underground magma vein. This place was actually very close to the magma in the vein.

At the sight of the magma that gurgled out of the ground, Zhang Tie immediately thought about a possibility...

Zhang Tie’s heart pounded as he looked at Han Zhengfang.

Han Zhengfang was looking at Zhang Tie with an eye light which was full of killing intent as he revealed an icy and insidious sinister. Closely after that, he spent his full efforts in punching against the ground of the palace.

In an earthquake, a crack as wide as dozens of meters suddenly appeared on the ground of the palace. In the blink of an eye, magma surged out of the crack and soaked half of Canglan Palace.

At the sight of the magma, Zhang Tie wanted to fly consciously; however, he found that he couldn’t move at all; because Han Zhengfang didn’t move. The two people’s chakras were locked together like two magnets. As Han Zhengfang was advantageous over Zhang Tie in battle strength, if Han Zhengfang didn’t move, Zhang Tie couldn’t move either.

Zhang Tie tried to contact Castle of Black Iron; however, he couldn’t return to Castle of Black Iron because of the same reason.

Since he owned Castle of Black Iron, it was Zhang Tie’s second time to meet such a situation. Last time, it was in the prison of Senel Clan, a Three-eye Association Clan when his body was clocked by a rune shackle. That time, he almost lost his life; he also experienced the feeling of being unable to return to his ultimate shelter when in crisis. After promoting to a knight, Zhang Tie thought that he would not meet such an experience for the rest of his life; unimaginably, it could come so fast.

All of a sudden, Zhang Tie understood what Han Zhengfang wanted to do. He felt hopless at once.

‘He’s one of the 9 ministers of Taixia Country. He has concealed his real identity in the hinterland of Taixia Country for so many years. This is the master of Heavens Reaching Church who didn’t expose his loophole even in front of Emperor Xuanyuan, the top powerhouse that could escape from the heavenly net made by Meng Shidao and Xuanyuan Hill. Even he’s severely injured and has declined to a lower realm, his insidious movements, intelligence and decisiveness definitely rank top in Taixia Country. If not, he could not mess up the entire Taixia Country with his own strength.’

‘I’ve underestimated this man. It proves once again that everything in the world wouldn’t always run at one’s will.’

‘It’s already too late for me to be regretful.’

After Han Zhengfang gave his second punch, the greater part of the ground of Canglan Palace had been collapsed while hundreds of millions of tons of magma poured inside like sea water.

In magma which had a very high density, the attacking ability of divine dominator was reduced to the utmost extent. Being flurried, Zhang Tie could only put away his weapons and silver secret items into Castle of Black Iron, leaving one silver secret shield in hand.

Han Zhengfang threw a sneer at Zhang Tie before diving into magma and flying downwards. Being drawn by Han Zhengfang’s chakras, Zhang Tie felt being fastened by an invisible iron chain as he was pulled towards the depth of the magma vein...

Zhang Tie felt increasing pressure from all directions...
