My Master Knows It All

317: Chapter 149: One Spear, Blood River, People of Hundred Peaks_3 317: Chapter 149: One Spear, Blood River, People of Hundred Peaks_3 Although he had not yet reached the Perfect Completion of the Golden Core, making his execution of the Five-thunder Righteous Method less potent than Xiang Ziyu, he was shocked that his Level Fifty-one Five-thunder Righteous Method was so easily neutralized.

After descending from the mountain, this was only his second exchange of blows with someone, and it was turning out to be quite pathetic.

“You… what is your Cultivation Realm?”

Even someone with a Perfect Completion Golden Core could not have effortlessly resolved his attack, so the Cultivation Realm of this white-haired witch must be above that of the Golden Core.

Upon hearing this, the white-haired witch’s face immediately displayed a look of proud contempt as she said, “This seat is in the Earth Immortal Realm, in the Longevity Period!

However, for fear of being discovered by the imperial court, I have never exercised my true strength.”

Cao Zhen was greatly alarmed.

An Earth Immortal from the Longevity Period—was there really no hope for resistance, when even his Core Formation was not yet at Great Perfection?

The only option was to detonate his Heretical Golden Core!

Only by doing so would there be a chance to harm the opponent and escape with everyone.

The Mana within him surged rapidly…

Yet the white-haired witch, looking at Cao Zhen, extended her tongue and gently licked her lips.

Her tongue was unnervingly long and thin, almost as long as her face, and a dark green in color, making for a strangely eerie sight.

“Since you’re so interesting, I’ll spare your life for now.

I will capture you first, then I can refine the others at my leisure.”

The face of the white-haired witch suddenly flashed with a ferocious light as she extended her hands from beneath her wide robe.

From her fingers, as thin as if only the skin remained, a thread-like beam shot out from each, aiming directly towards Cao Zhen from different directions.

Suddenly, from the sky came a sharp sound of tearing through the air, followed by the descent of a massive silver halberd shadow.

The silver light drew a semicircle in the air, like a crescent moon falling from the sky, slicing through the black night, cutting through the endless Demonic Qi, and severing the ten black qi threads.

Who is this?

Cao Zhen abruptly raised his head to look towards the sky.

Under the night sky, a huge Strange Beast emerged into his line of sight, resembling a fierce tiger, yet covered in silver scales that shone blindingly against the dark, and it had hooves like those of a cow.

Beneath its mouth, there were a pair of sharp teeth as formidable as Sharp Swords.

Astride the Strange Beast was a man wearing a silver three-pronged crown, clad in silver Chain Armor, with a precious blue silk belt around his waist, his face powdered, eyebrows like drawn swords reaching into his temples, eyes clear and discerning, exuding a lofty demeanor.

In his hands, he wielded The Square Heaven Halberd, and behind him, ten Dao platforms, ten Immortal Bridges, and ten Golden Cores radiated surging Mana.

Perfect Completion Golden Core!

And what’s more, all the Golden Cores bore unique marks.

A look of astonishment appeared on Cao Zhen’s face.

Were there so many people with uniquely marked Perfect Completion Golden Cores in the world?

The face of the white-haired witch turned to one of resentment as she said coldly, “Silver Dragon Blade Tiger Beast, The Square Heaven Halberd…

You are Master Gou’s disciple, Yu Tuoyu!”

The Grand Preceptor’s disciple?

Cao Zhen instantly recalled what Chang Tiance had mentioned to him about the Grand Preceptor’s eight personal disciples.

Could this man be one of them?

Could he be that imperial relative?

The town chief had burned the imperial edict, had the Grand Preceptor sent out one of his disciples?

But the witch in front of him was at the Earth Immortal Longevity Period, how could a mere Golden Core, even at Perfect Completion, hope to be her match?

The white-haired witch stared fiercely at Yu Tuoyu, her face exuding boundless hatred: “That year, your master destroyed our Red Refinery Demonic Sect, and today, I will take his disciple as a tribute!

Even if it’s just a minor Golden Core, killing Master Gou’s disciple will make my name renowned throughout the world, die!”

The white-haired witch’s face twisted grotesquely, and the dense Demonic Qi behind her suddenly erupted like a boundless expanse, filling the heavens and earth, permeating the entire small town.

She stretched out her hand towards Yu Tuoyu and grasped fiercely towards him.

In an instant, a giant black hand formed in the sky, the hand composed of dark Demonic Qi took on a substantial form, exuding an intense and sinister aura, reminiscent of the legendary branches of ancient trees from times long past, reaching out to grab Yu Tuoyu and blotting out the sun and moon.

Yu Tuoyu’s gaze towards the white-haired witch was ice-cold, devoid of any trace of fear.

He patted an area on his chest with his hand.

Suddenly, a brilliant golden light shot out from his Chain Armor at the chest, so dazzling that it turned the dark town as bright as day, dispelling all darkness in one stroke.

Within the golden light, a young figure emerged.

He was dressed in a multicolored python robe and a vast cape floated behind him; his long hair waved gently, and the man’s handsome visage was filled with a heroic spirit.

Cao Zhen even sensed that the man in the golden light seemed like a war-hardened General that had triumphed over countless battles.

As soon as the figure appeared, he simply reached out and grabbed towards the white-haired witch.

With nothing more than a mere grasp, despite seeming as casual as reaching for an immovable object, it conveyed a feeling that everything in heaven and earth, all of time, was within the control of this hand.

“Grand Preceptor!”

The face of the white-haired witch suddenly altered drastically, and no longer caring about concealing her power, the full force of the Earth Immortal Longevity Period erupted as she tried to flee into the distance.

But before she could move, a giant golden hand had already descended from the sky.

The white-haired witch, just moments before so imposing and threatening, was now grasped by the ethereal giant hand, rendered as powerless as an infant in an adult’s grip, completely immobilized.
