I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 843: Chapter 843: Unlocking the Complete Form of the Midgard Serpent Martial Soul

In the vast ocean, there is a spacious battleground.

That is the place where Xiyue practices her Inner Court Skill.

Outside the site, an impossibly large snake lies coiled on the periphery.

The giant snake’s eyes are closed, resting leisurely.

Aside from the rising and falling of its body, it hardly even looks alive.

After relinquishing control of her own body, a mass of Black Mist entered Xiyue’s spiritual world without any obstruction.

The appearance of the Black Mist immediately alerted the giant snake.

It was an absolute terror of a natural enemy.

In the enormous serpent’s eyes, an uncommon look of fear appeared.

”You woman, what monster did you let in here, are you planning to get rid of me now that I’m no use?”

In the previous battle, Jörmungandr had promised to help Xiyue.

Of course, it had its plans, which involved gradually gaining control over Xiyue’s body, just like when the black Hou took over Wu Absolute Pinnacle, slowly possessing Xiyue’s body.

How dare it think that Xiyue, this girl, would be so bold, allowing such a terrifying thing into her body.

”Ha, a monster? Who are you calling a monster, me?”

The cold voice of Wo Zhiqi rang out, making Jörmungandr involuntarily shiver.

The exaggerated aura indeed made it feel tense.

For a moment, it didn’t know how to respond to the question posed by that voice.

”I, I, I... my lord, I didn’t mean it that way, little god, ah no, I just had a slip of the tongue, please don’t take it to heart, my lord.”

The Black Mist swiftly flew above the field, then fiercely crashed onto the site, forming the figure of a monkey draped in silver armor.

Jörmungandr, being one of the Divine Beings of the Upper Plane, how could it not recognize the formidable entity that appeared before it?

The instant it recognized it, Jörmungandr’s voice started to tremble.

The title of Midgard Serpent was now no longer so useful.

”Wo, Wo Zhiqi, you are Wo Zhiqi!”

Being recognized and called by name, Wo Zhiqi was somewhat displeased.

”No, Mr. Wo, what brings you here?”

Jörmungandr timidly asked.

”I came here, naturally, for your host. This girl is very important to my host, so discard any thoughts of possession, or else I don’t mind destroying your soul and spirit directly now. I came to seek you out, merely to have a good talk.”

A good talk? Are you sure?

How can you call this a good talk, directly stating that if the talk doesn’t go well, the other party would be killed, who would dare not follow your lead after hearing this?

”You know the nature of All Celestial Divine Beings; if you could have a good ending, you wouldn’t have become someone else’s Martial Soul. Whether you want to continue serving All Celestial Divine Beings, you know it in your heart; since you know my identity, you also know that my judgment and choices are never wrong.”

”If you wish to seek revenge and one day return to All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, just honestly assist this girl, don’t harbor any malice, or else, you know the consequences.”

Before seeing Wo Zhiqi, the Midgard Serpent put on quite a show.

Towards Xiyue, it even pretended greatly.

Now, it has thoroughly become compliant.

It knows clearly, even if it could possess Xiyue’s body, ultimately, Wo Zhiqi could forcibly enter Xiyue’s body and completely destroy its consciousness and spirit.

No choice, Jörmungandr grasped the disparity in strength quite clearly.

It knew who it could offend and whose words it must comply with.

”Fine, Mr. Wo Zhiqi, as you say, from now on, I’ll follow your lead!”

Soon, the control of the body returned to Xiyue’s hands once again.

In the Sea of Divine Consciousness, Xiyue heard the conversation between Wo Zhiqi and Jörmungandr, and with this warning, Xiyue could use the power of the Martial Soul without any reservation.

Sure enough, the instant her consciousness switched back, a phantom of a giant serpent wrapped Xiyue and Lin Yi within.

From the Power of the Primordial that Xiyue emanated now, it seemed she was unaffected by that so-called toxin, her aura remaining as strong as before.

By other means, Xiyue might not be able to cope.

But when it comes to resisting toxins, it’s simply a piece of cake for Xiyue.

Possessing the Martial Soul of the Midgard Serpent, she could achieve complete immunity to toxins as well.

Though she couldn’t be like Lin Yi, immune to all abnormal states, it was still considerably practical.

The giant serpent’s phantom emitted a powerful aura, and at this moment, the serpent’s body became even more massive and substantially solid, the aura it exuded growing increasingly terrifying.

This commotion immediately drew the attention of everyone in the space.

Especially those sent by All Celestial Divine Beings.

”Cheng Ji, it seems that the ones you brought this time have met a tough opponent. From the aura Xiyue currently shows, it’s not going to be possible for your people to take her down or even kill her. This will make for a good show,”

Ziyue’s words didn’t make any unpleasantness appear on Cheng Ji’s face, rather he was somewhat expectant.

He waved his hand: No matter, these guys are just average in strength, we have plenty of them, but this girl, I’m becoming more interested.

”Wow, this young lady is not simple!”

Amidst the special space, the eyes of the formidable ones instantly lit up.

Understanding clearly after being poisoned, once the Divine Beings’ dogs started to act, they would be defeated at a speed no better than delivering a withering blow.

But Xiyue is different.

From the aura she currently emits, she is much stronger than the Divine Beings’ lackeys.

If she’s willing to protect them, surviving wouldn’t be an issue.

Thus, all those regarded as ”performance,” eyes gleaming with light, rushed towards the direction where Xiyue was.

”Performance!”

The reason these formidable ones are called ”performance” has its reasons.

Among All Celestial Divine Beings, not all are devoted to maintaining the order of all heavens.

Especially the enforcers responsible for ensuring the stable execution of the rules set by All Celestial Divine Beings, their lives aren’t easy either.

The powerful Upper-Rank Gods detected the loss of Source Power, they realized it was very likely caused by an important leak, yet they couldn’t figure out who exactly was vying with them for resources.

The task of filtering naturally fell into the hands of the order enforcers.

To have something to explain to the higher-ups, and not to truly offend the Dark Rising Organization, they just had to turn a blind eye.

When results were demanded by the higher-ups, they asked the Dark Rising Organization to deal with some unsavory individuals, thus making it easier to account for things.

Thus, Lin Yi and others were mockingly termed ”performance.”

However, Lin Yi is not your average performance.

To take down this performance is not that easy; if relying solely on the strength of the order enforcers, taking it down would require resorting to low methods.

Unfortunately, with the Great Celestial Immortal Skill at Lin Yi’s side, he is immune to all abnormal states, making any power-restricting poisons entirely ineffective.

Thinking that a motley crew could achieve something, is perhaps a bit too far-fetched.
