Chapter 109: Chapter 109: The Pupil Skills of the Two Great Saints

Big Black Horse had naturally employed the Blindfold Method on this shield. This method only worked on outsiders and had no effect on his own people. The Three Saints of Accumulated Thunder Mountain had always been well-fed and well-treated, so in Big Black Horse’s eyes, they were practically family.

”Come on, show me what you Heaven-Destined Great Demons are capable of!” Big Black Horse sneered, baring his white teeth as he shook the shield in his hand.

He had countless scales on his body, far too many to count. Only one of them was truly precious; the others were expendable.Besides, if one was torn off, it would just grow back.The shield in his hand was formed from one such ordinary scale.Against these lesser monsters of the Destiny Realm, this shield was more than enough to entertain them for a good while.

”This...” Thunder Dragon’s face turned ashen as he saw that a major battle was imminent, with both sides bringing out their magic weapons. He had no choice but to release his Mana, forming a barrier around the main hall. If he didn’t, the shockwaves from the colliding magic weapons would likely destroy the entire edifice. Kui Bull and Dark Lightning Thunder Tiger also took action, adding two more layers of protection outside the first barrier. Only then did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief. As for whether the barriers would hold, that was entirely up to fate.

Big Black Horse merely pursed his lips. He felt nothing but disdain for the actions of these three minor monsters from Accumulated Thunder Mountain.His Master had decided they would stay here for a while.Naturally, he intended to enjoy their hospitality and freeload in this palace for some time, so he certainly couldn’t let it be damaged.Thus, he had already used his Divine Skills to reinforce this palace. Never mind Destiny Realm cultivators; even a Life and Death Realm expert wouldn’t be able to break it with an attack.

Seeing that the Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint still hadn’t made a move, Big Black Horse urged, ”What are you hesitating for? Aren’t you going to strike to kill? You’re Heaven-Destined Great Demons, after all. If you can’t even kill a little Nirvana Realm monster like me, and word of this gets out, Ten Thousand Dragon Ridge will be utterly disgraced!”

After speaking, Big Black Horse raised his Black Shield and grinned, revealing a set of perfectly white and even teeth that gleamed like jade.

”You’re courting death!” Enraged by the black-robed man’s provocation, the Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint simultaneously raised their Golden Rings and Silver Rings. They advanced a few steps, their bodies suffused with overwhelming killing intent, exuding the terrifying aura of Destiny Realm cultivators.

With a flicker of movement, the two of them were instantly upon him. Raising their Golden Rings and Silver Rings high, they channeled all their strength and smashed down viciously.

WHOOSH!

Big Black Horse spun like a gyroscope, his Black Shield completely enveloping him. The Golden Rings and the Silver Rings slammed into the shield.

BOOM!

A tremendous force recoiled, sending the Golden Rings and Silver Rings flying back. In that instant, both the Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint cried out in shock as a searing pain shot through the webbing of their thumbs; their respective Rings had nearly been torn from their grasp.

The Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint were aghast. These Golden Rings and Silver Rings!They were the most powerful treasures they had spent millennia refining!To think that their all-out physical strike had still failed to breach the black-robed man’s defense!

”HUMPH!” The Golden Eye Saint’s expression turned grim. He suddenly opened his mouth and violently spewed out a dense black smoke. This was the Deadly Poison Fog he had spent many years cultivating. Even a Destiny Realm cultivator would be instantly poisoned to death upon inhaling the slightest trace of it.

Simultaneously, the Silver Eye Saint’s eyes flashed with a captivating silver light. It was as if countless stars had suddenly materialized around Big Black Horse, spinning ceaselessly. This was the Silver Eye Saint’s Pupil Skill: Star Eye. Once this Pupil Skill was activated, it would trap the opponent in an illusory world of stars.

Now, with his elder brother Golden Eye Saint’s Deadly Poison Fog added to the mix, even a mighty Destiny Realm cultivator would have no chance of escape.A supreme Pupil Skill combined with a lethal poison—it was an almost indefensible assault! The Silver Eye Saint refused to believe that fellow could still block it with just a shield.

”Those two shameless Snake Demons, using that despicable trick again!” Watching the battle from afar, the Big Black Cat seethed, its teeth clenched in anger. It was precisely this combination of Divine Skills that had led to its defeat years ago.The Silver Eye Saint had employed his bizarre Pupil Skill, trapping it in an Illusory Realm.Then, the Golden Eye Saint had unleashed his Deadly Poison Fog. It had inhaled some and nearly lost its old life.Fortunately, as a Nine-tailed Spirit Cat, it possessed nine lives. By resorting to an ancient secret technique and sacrificing one of its lives, it managed to expel the poison and flee.That battle had left the Big Black Cat severely depleted in Yuan Qi, and it had never since sought revenge against those two.It was after that ordeal that it encountered its current master...

”Haha, bring it on!” Big Black Horse boomed with laughter, raising the shield in his hand. A mysterious light emanated from the shield, revealing ancient, primitive patterns within. As if summoned, all the surrounding stars were drawn into it and absorbed.

”What? He actually broke my Pupil Skill!” The Silver Eye Saint was stunned. Over all these years, extremely few had ever managed to break his Pupil Skill.

The Golden Eye Saint beside him was also astonished. The next moment, his own eyes began to radiate a brilliant golden light. Instantly, the entire world seemed to transform, submerged in an endless golden ocean, making one wonder if they had been transported to some bizarre, alternate dimension.

Caught completely off guard, the nearby Three Saints of Accumulated Thunder Mountain were instantly trapped within this Illusory Realm. The Mana barrier they had previously erected vanished abruptly. All three stared blankly, their spirits utterly crushed.

”MEOW!” All the fur on the Big Black Cat bristled. Its four tails erupted with glows of four different colors, enveloping its entire body. From a distance, it resembled a radiant, multicolored sphere of light.

This Golden Ring Snake! His Pupil Skill is so formidable, far more terrifying than that Silver Ring Snake’s! The Big Black Cat was inwardly astounded.

Observing the reactions of those around him, the Golden Eye Saint felt a surge of smug satisfaction. His Golden Eye Pupil Skill was a rare sight in the world.Even within the Heavenly Star Dynasty, no more than three individuals were aware of its existence.This Pupil Skill was immensely powerful; he had once relied on his Golden Eye to contend with a peak Heavenly Mandate Realm Tenth Level cultivator for several Time Units, ultimately retreating unscathed.

”Mere parlor tricks! How could such a minor Pupil Skill possibly affect Uncle Ma?” Big Black Horse roared with laughter as the mysterious light on his shield flared once more. This time, it completely absorbed the golden Ocean Illusion Technique that filled the sky.

”How is this possible?” The Golden Eye Saint’s eyes widened in utter disbelief, his mind reeling as if struck by colossal waves. How could this dark-faced, middle-aged man’s shield be so incredibly potent?It had effortlessly broken two different Pupil Skills!

Big Black Horse casually moved the shield behind his back. Gazing at the black poison fog still permeating the air, he opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath, inhaling every last wisp of the Deadly Poison Fog.

”Rather bland!” Big Black Horse commented, sticking out his blood-red tongue to lick his lips, then curled them in a disdainful sneer.

”What?!” That fiend actually swallowed all the Deadly Poison Fog and is still alive?! The Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint were beyond horrified.

At that very moment, they finally understood. The being before them was undoubtedly a supreme Great Demon!To swallow the Deadly Poison Fog and remain unharmed...He had to be a Great Demon of the Life and Death Realm!

Realization struck them like a thunderbolt. The hearts of the Golden Eye Saint and Silver Eye Saint pounded with sheer terror, and cold sweat beaded on their skin. Exchanging a horrified glance, they instantly transformed into streaks of golden and silver light, turned, and fled for their lives.
