"You're next!" The tone was cold and arrogant. ~~ The corner of Zhou Peng's mouth curled into a faint smile. With one step, a stream of light flashed beneath his feet, like a golden lotus in full bloom, radiating light in all directions. The long robe on his body fluttered, making a rustling sound as the strong wind surrounded his whole body, suddenly rising up. He leaped into the air and then slowly descended from the sky, like a celestial being descending to the mortal world. His entrance was full of momentum and style, causing his admirers to shout loudly. In their hearts, Zhou Peng was like a supreme god. After landing, Zhou Peng walked onto the arena and entered the barrier, with a faint smile always on his face. "Isn't he courting death?" "Liu Shuanghan's divine ability, 'Spear of Vengeance', instantly killed Zhao Donglai at the third level of Breaking Space. Isn't Zhou Peng afraid?" "Zhou Peng is too overconfident. He can't be so arrogant as to think he can resist Liu Shuanghan's divine ability, can he?" "Reaching the fifth level of Entering Void and making it to the top three is already against the odds. I can't believe Zhou Peng is still not satisfied. Being so greedy will surely bring him death." ... The divine ability 'Spear of Vengeance' demonstrated by Liu Shuanghan possessed unrivaled power. Even Zhao Donglai, the favored son of heaven and the leader of the top ten disciples, couldn't resist it. What did Zhou Peng have to win against Liu Shuanghan? Some elders of Qianji Sect and those with profound cultivation didn't think highly of Zhou Peng. Zhou Peng's acceptance of the challenge was like an egg hitting a stone - suicidal. Many people didn't think Zhou Peng could win, but some remained silent. Just like Wu Yue, the master of Nanyang Palace. He felt in his heart that Zhou Peng couldn't be that stupid, knowing that it was certain death but still stepping forward to fight. Zhou Peng must have something more powerful to rely on. Then, thinking of Zhao Chang'an's sudden death, Wu Yue relaxed his brows, smiled faintly, and said softly, "It's still uncertain who will be the victor." "Master, Brother Zhou will surely not lose." Meng Fan said blindly. "Heh heh..." Wu Yue laughed a few times without speaking. Now Zhou Peng was representing the eight - palace forces. If they lost again this year, Qingtian Sect would surely grow stronger again. If this continued, the power of the eight palaces would really be suppressed. This was something none of the eight palace masters wanted to see. "Elder Han, go down. If necessary, save Zhou Peng..." "Remember, don't act too soon!" In the Great Hall of Beyond - the - Sky, Long Xiaotian stood with his hands behind his back. After pondering for a moment, he said. "Yes, sir." Elder Han bowed and saluted, then disappeared into the hall like a black shadow. "The gap in strength is too great. Zhou Peng can't possibly win..." Long Xiaotian frowned slightly and murmured. Zhou Peng's talent was of great interest to Long Xiaotian. 15 So he wanted to save Zhou Peng. If he could be used by him, in time, he would surely become his right - hand man, which would play a decisive role in consolidating his position as sect master in the future. "Zhou Peng, don't let me down..." ———————— Inside the barrier. Liu Shuanghan sneered coldly and said, "I can't believe you actually dare to fight. You're really overestimating yourself." "Do you think just because you devoured the Immortal Evil Fruit, I have no way to deal with you?" Since the day he went berserk, he had been collecting information about the Immortal Evil Fruit. Finally, he learned the secret of the Immortal Evil Fruit from that person. Facing Zhou Peng again, Liu Shuanghan was not at all afraid of the power of the Immortal Evil Fruit. "Besides, in front of so many people, do you dare to be demonized?" "Even if you don't get killed by me, being demonized will surely make you die without a burial place." Zhou Peng also smiled faintly and said, "Liu Shuanghan, I don't want to be your enemy. But since I entered Qianji Sect, Qingtian Sect has been constantly chasing and killing me. From Wang Xie to Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning, and then to Zhou Wei. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have died at their hands long ago. Tell me, should I seek revenge?" "Are you just for revenge?" Zhou Peng's words made Liu Shuanghan stunned for a moment. Now that Yang Han was dead, all that Qingtian Sect had done was in vain. Not only did they not get any benefits, but they also made a powerful enemy. It was a loss - making deal. However, Liu Shuanghan didn't have the slightest regret for all this. He said coldly, "Those who offend Qingtian Sect must pay with their lives. I spared your life several times before, but you didn't cherish it. Today, I won't give you another chance. So..." "Today, you will surely die." "Die?" Zhou Peng suddenly laughed out loud and said, "What do you use to kill me?" "The Spear of Vengeance?" "Liu Shuanghan, do you think you can still perform the 'Spear of Vengeance'?" Zhou Peng said word by word, looking at Liu Shuanghan with great interest. Liu Shuanghan's brow trembled, his expression was startled, and his eyes suddenly became cold, with a murderous intent flashing through them. He said coldly, "To kill you, I don't need to perform the Spear of Vengeance at all." He had tacitly admitted it. "Whoosh..." Tens of thousands of people in the square were suddenly shocked. Zhou Peng's words astonished them greatly. How did he know that Liu Shuanghan couldn't perform the Spear of Vengeance? Had Liu Shuanghan been completely seen through by Zhou Peng? "Looking at Liu Shuanghan's expression, it seems that he really can't perform the 'Spear of Vengeance'. How did Zhou Peng know that he couldn't?" "Strange. I can't even tell. How did he figure it out?" Wu Yue, who was at the peak of Breaking Space realm, thought to himself. Even if Liu Shuanghan couldn't perform his divine ability, his chances of winning were still great. He was no ordinary first - level Breaking Space cultivator. Moreover, he had also cultivated the supreme technique of the Savage Race, the Savage God Art. This was a god - level technique with extremely powerful attacks. "Not only do I see that you can't perform the 'Spear of Vengeance', but I also know that the Qi in your Dantian has been almost exhausted and can't last long." Zhou Peng made another astonishing statement. Zhou Peng's words were like a bomb, exploding in the air above the square. Since Liu Shuanghan's battle with Wu Tian, Zhou Peng had been calculating his Qi consumption bit by bit. In that battle, Liu Shuanghan had consumed nearly half of his Qi. Then there was the battle with Zhao Donglai. The Qi consumption was extremely huge, especially when performing the 'Spear of Vengeance'. Divine abilities required a strong Qi foundation to support them. When Liu Shuanghan retracted the Spear of Vengeance, he was counter - attacked by his Qi and couldn't help but spit out blood. At that time, Zhou Peng had seen through Liu Shuanghan in his heart and knew that his Qi was almost exhausted. Without Qi support, even an absolute powerhouse was in vain. Therefore, Zhou Peng had the confidence to walk onto the arena. After entering the barrier, Liu Shuanghan didn't attack immediately. At that time, Zhou Peng's heart moved again, further confirming that the Qi in Liu Shuanghan's Dantian had been almost exhausted. He had been completely seen through! Liu Shuanghan stared at Zhou Peng, clenched his fists a little tighter, and his heart was extremely shocked. He had never expected that Zhou Peng would see through all of this. Being seen through was a very unpleasant feeling. However, Liu Shuanghan was stunned for a few seconds. Then he grinned ferociously and said, "Zhou Peng, even if my Qi is exhausted, do you think I can't kill you?" After saying that, Liu Shuanghan took out a golden pill and swallowed it, saying coldly, "Do you know what pill I just took?" "The God - Slaying Pill!!!" "The God - Slaying Pill?" Zhou Peng's heart trembled, and he muttered, looking at Liu Shuanghan with a questioning look. This was the first time he had heard of the 'God - Slaying Pill'. "The God - Slaying Pill?!" "Oh my god. How could he have such a pill?" "That's the most precious treasure of the Medicine Clan. A God - Slaying Pill is a pill more precious than a divine weapon." ... Not many people knew about the 'God - Slaying Pill', but those who did were all extremely shocked. "The God - Slaying Pill can kill even gods when taken..." "No matter how much you calculate?" "In the end, you still miscalculate. I said I would let you die today, and I won't let you live until tomorrow." After taking the 'God - Slaying Pill', Liu Shuanghan's aura changed violently. The momentum radiating from his body was like sharp swords, crushing outwards. Zhou Peng's heart suddenly moved, and he quietly circulated his Qi to resist. He frowned, and in his heart, he shouted in a deep voice, "Six - level Rampage..." With 128 times the attribute power added to his body, Zhou Peng became cautious. Although he didn't know how powerful the 'God - Slaying Pill' was, he could guess a little from Liu Shuanghan's expression. Regardless of the power of the 'God - Slaying Pill'. Its effect must be the same as that of the Qi - Nourishing Pill that Zhou Peng took. After taking the God - Slaying Pill, Liu Shuanghan's Qi must have increased greatly. The Qi - Nourishing Pill added 10,000 Qi points. This God - Slaying Pill was probably many times more powerful. In other words, Liu Shuanghan's Qi had recovered now. As for how much it had recovered, Zhou Peng wasn't sure either. Originally, he wanted to expose the fact that Liu Shuanghan's Qi was almost exhausted to overwhelm him in momentum first. He didn't expect that he had obtained a 'God - Slaying Pill'. The upcoming battle was inevitable. "Must win no matter what." "Otherwise, how can I expose his Spear of Vengeance?" Zhou Peng was startled in his heart. Under the six - level Rampage boost, the second form of the Seven - Absolute Killing Formation, 'Breaking Kill', slashed out violently... Seven black giant swords condensed into one, carrying the power of the Dark God, and slashed down arrogantly. "Humph, you're seeking death." Liu Shuanghan shouted heavily, controlled his hands, and roared, "Ten Thousand Swords Soaring to the Sky..." Instantly, ten thousand afterimages emerged and then transformed into a ten - thousand - zhang sword intent. In an instant, the barrier was filled with a murderous intent. "Slash!" "Kill!" "Boom..." Zhou Peng was blasted out, heavily hitting the barrier, and was immediately bounced back by the barrier, falling to the ground. The bluestone beneath his chest quickly cracked. The Qi and blood in his chest churned, and the smell of blood in his throat was pungent. "Pfft..." Blood gushed out from his mouth. Zhou Peng's face was ashen - gray, and his whole body was drenched in cold sweat. The attack power of 'Ten Thousand Swords Soaring to the Sky' was too powerful for Zhou Peng to resist. Moreover, Liu Shuanghan would surely not be careless at this point. Otherwise, he wouldn't be Liu Shuanghan. Pressure. An unprecedentedly huge pressure. "If I become a demon..." "No." "Definitely not." Zhou Peng immediately rejected the idea in his heart. If he became a demon, he could indeed resist a little. Liu Shuanghan, who had a perfect demon body, really couldn't do anything to him. But if he transformed into a demon, all that he had done in Qianji Sect would be in vain. Moreover, it would also attract the strongmen of Qianji Sect to surround and kill him. Without becoming a demon, what could he use to fight Liu Shuanghan? Zhou Peng got up from the ground, without wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. He coldly looked at Liu Shuanghan, who was looking down on him not far away, and began to analyze frantically in his mind. "Can't even resist one move. So what if you see through me?" Liu Shuanghan laughed wildly. "I'm very interested in your divine abilities and techniques. Today, I will strip them all out and make them my own divine abilities, haha..." Zhou Peng calmed down, looked at Liu Shuanghan, and suddenly remembered the words that Wu Tian had once said. Then he sneered coldly...
