Chapter 200: Ants Shaking a Tree

Boom!

The Moonsunk Gold Truncheon smashed into a stone table, but it didnt hit Enlightenment Heaven Supreme. He had swiftly backed over thirty meters away and was glaring at Fang Chen with frigid eyes.

You have excellent movement skills, Fang Chen said. I was just probing you. Please dont think too much into it.

Do you take me for a fool? Enlightenment Heaven Exalted sneered. He glanced at the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon and said, A low Yellow-tier artifact made out of Moonsunk Gold. Twelve daosoul imprints? No wonder you dare to return here. You were hoping to kill me.

A twelve daosoul imprint artifact was enough to threaten this body of his. If that artifact had landed squarely on him, his spirit ki would have likely instantaneously dissipated.

You recognize this artifact? As expected of Enlightenment Heaven Supreme, Fang Chen remarked in awe.

Despite his words, his heart sank. The other party was able to tell right away that his artifact was made out of Moonsunk Gold. It was unlikely that the other party would give him a chance to approach him anymore.

Your soul might be strong enough to lift that artifact, but youre too weak to stand a chance against me. Hah, I would have never thought a seventh stage Ki Refinement cultivator would dare attack me. You sure are a tenacious one! Enlightenment Heaven Supreme sneered.

I would never dare to attack you, Enlightenment Heaven Supreme. I just wanted to test your means. Why dont we discuss the deal now? Fang Chen asked.

Youre stalling for time. You must have depleted a lot of spirit ki to use that artifact at your cultivation level, so youre trying to buy time to recover. Do you take me for a fool? Since you dared to attack me, you should suffer the consequences even if its merely a puppet!

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme sneered. Let me show you my mystic artIncense Gold Avatar!

A golden light shone from his body and manifested into an avatar of pure gold.

Without any hesitation, Fang Chen turned tail and fled.

Where do you think youre going?

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme chased after Fang Chen. His footsteps were so heavy that they left massive holes on the ground, yet his speed was many times faster than Fang Chen. Seconds were all it took for him to catch up.

However, Fang Chen immediately retaliated with ten Purple Lightning Talismans.

Furious purple lightning bolts crackled on Enlightenment Heaven Supreme, but they couldnt breach the gold avatar around him and failed to inflict any damage on him.

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme scoffed. A mere ant thinks he can shake the sky?

Bam!

Fang Chen suddenly lurched forward at an incredible speed. A palm harnessing tremendous force and spirit ki had struck his back, completely shattering the layer of spirit ki protecting him.

Pu!

He spewed blood and rolled over fifty meters on the ground before stalling to a halt.

I underestimated him Fang Chen gasped. The other partys means exceeded his expectations.

A single palm, and youre already at your limit? Enlightenment Heaven Supreme sneered.

He gazed down loftily at Fang Chen like a cat toying with a mouse and questioned, Who gave you, a measly seventh stage Ki Refinement cultivator, the courage to attack me? This body of mine might be lacking, but its at twelfth stage Ki Refinement. Did you think that little artifact of yours is enough to bridge the gap between us?

There is indeed a huge gap between us. If I was at eleventh stage Ki Refinement, I might still have been able to hold my ground against him with the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon. Otherwise, if I had some pinnacle-grade Purple Lightning Talismans, I could have at least hurt him

Fang Chen looked at Enlightenment Heaven Supreme as his mind whirred into action.

Unfortunately, pinnacle-grade Purple Lightning Talisman was demanding on the quality of the brush, cinnabar, and talisman paper. He was unable to obtain such high quality spirit material, so he was limited to drawing mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman.

He had two hundred more mid-grade Purple Lightning Talismans in his storage ring, but he suspected that he wouldnt be able to breach the other partys golden avatar even if he tossed all of them out at one go.

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme, youll never find out the whereabouts of the Saint-tier spirit medicine if you destroy this puppet of mine, Fang Chen said.

I have lost interest in the spirit medicine. Since this is merely a puppet, Ill destroy it and go after your main body. Ill use the Incense Spirit Flame to sear your soul for a hundred years so as to utterly obliterate it, such that you cant even return to the cycle of reincarnation, Enlightenment Heaven Supreme sneered.

He had lost his patience.

If so I can only admit defeat. Fang Chen sighed as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme took a step forward. The next moment, Fang Chen grabbed the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon and launched another vicious strike.

Ant.

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme grabbed the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon and held it firmly in place, not budging in the least even as the spirit ki on it assaulted his body.

This was an attack that could disintegrate even a small hill, yet it looked no different from a childs toy before Enlightenment Heaven Supreme, incapable of dealing any damage.

Bam!

Enlightenment Heaven Supreme kicked Fang Chen in the stomach, sending him flying fifty meters before crashing into an old tree.

By then, the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon had already fallen in the Enlightenment Heaven Supremes hand. He looked at the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon and suddenly laughed. Trash like this is worthy of being called an artifact?

Kacha!

He smashed the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon into countless pieces and scattered them all over.

Fang Chens heart turned cold. His soul was imprinted on the Moonsunk Gold Truncheon, so its destruction dealt severe damage to him. Fresh blood wouldnt stop seeping from his mouth.

Actually Enlightenment Heaven Supreme looked at Fang Chen and remarked, Your attacks might have worked if I was a normal twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivator. At the very least, you wouldnt have ended in such a pitiful plight.

Is that so? Fang Chen wiped off the blood on his lips before adjusting himself to rest against the tree.

You are the first Ki Refinement cultivator to make me angry. You should be proud of that. Enlightenment Heaven Supreme laughed. Of course, kudos to you for having the guts to look for me with your real body too.

I am a puppet, Fang Chen insisted. Its useless even if you kill me.

Your injuries wouldnt have worsened when I destroyed your artifact if you were a puppet, Enlightenment Heaven Supreme replied with a smile.

Fang Chen sighed. The fact that youre keeping me alive means that you still covet the Saint-tier spirit medicine. So, what do you want to do?

Im going to search your soul, Enlightenment Heaven Supreme replied. Youll suffer excruciating pain that will make you regret ever angering me. Before then, Id like to ask why you chose to come back. Is killing me that important to you? What do you stand to gain?

This body of yours may pose a problem to me in the future. Id rather deal with it on the spot, Fang Chen replied.

Thats all? Enlightenment Heaven Supreme was baffled. He wouldnt have returned if he was Fang Chen. To think that this Ki Refinement cultivator was even more tenacious than him!

This is enough reason. If you dont get it, it only means that youre too young, Fang Chen replied.

Hahaha! Enlightenment Heaven Supreme was so angry that he burst into laughter. A defeated Ki Refinement cultivator dares to mock me for being too young?

He flitted up to Fang Chen and grabbed the latters head. Soul Search!
