đ Chapter 1119 - Curse Battle!
Almost as soon as Chong Yizi spoke, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering aura erupted from his body. Standing tall in the starry sky, Chong Yiziâs eyes flashed with an eerie light.
Right now, his hair was disheveled, his body was covered in severe injuries, his momentum was feeble, and his complexion was pale. Even the Eternal Star behind him had blurred, and his insides were in an even worse state.
His internal organs had ruptured and every bone in his body was cracking. It seemed that every moment, another bit of his flesh and blood was torn apart.
Anyone else would have been unable to bear these grievous injuries, but Chong Yizi forcibly endured the pain. Moreover, there was even a cold smile on his face as he opened his mouth to speak.
âWhy do you think I insisted on fighting even though I was injured?â Chong Yizi said, taking a step toward Wang Baole. As he did so, a purple gas streamed out from the external wounds on his body, turning into countless mysterious runes that flickered with the same eerie light as his eyes.
Seeing this, Wang Baoleâs eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly felt a stinging pain coming from many places on his body. He didnât even need to think hard to figure out the cause. Just looking with the naked eye, he could see that⌠the places where he felt pain were in exactly the same location as Chong Yiziâs wounds!
âWhy do you think that after my divine ability was broken, I still unleashed more magical techniques at the cost of worsening my injuries?â Chong Yizi chuckled and took another step. This time, the purple gas wafted out not just from his wounds but also from his seven orifices and the pores on his body. This purple gas⌠came from his internal organs, his bones, and his flesh and blood!
The region of the starry sky that contained Chong Yizi was instantly filled with heaven-shaking purple gas. At the same time, Wang Baole noticed that the stinging pain on his body rapidly intensified. Moreover, his internal organs, bones, and flesh and blood also began experiencing the same stinging pain!
âDid you really think you had a chance at winning? Did you really think you could defeat me?â
Chong Yizi laughed out loud, taking the third step. As soon as he set his foot down, the dim and blurry Eternal Star behind him actually⌠changed color! Patches of purple instantly appeared, rapidly spreading across the surface of the Eternal Star and turning everything in their way the same shade!
All of this made Wang Baole feel an extremely strong sense of crisis, and his narrowed eyes shone brightly. He sensed that his star chart was trembling, with tiny cracks rapidly appearing out seemingly out of nowhere!
âThis Chong Yiziâs schemes⌠run very deep!â Wang Baoleâs expression turned solemn. Ever since his senior brother Chen Qingzi brought him away from Earth, he had experienced various things, including countless battles.
However, the list of people who could truly make a deep impression on him was very small. And now, there was one more person on this list.
It was none other than Chong Yizi.
Even at the very beginning of the fight, Chong Yizi had been plotting to win with a sneak attack. If not for Wang Baoleâs cautiousness, the first sneak attack may have ended the battle right there. At the same time, Chong Yiziâs ability to change his personality at the drop of a hat was worthy of admiration. He seemed to have a powerhouseâs arrogant demeanor, but he was also able to lower himself without any hint of stiffness or abnormality.
Combined with his formidable battle prowess, Chong Yizi was truly a force to be reckoned with. But what impressed Wang Baole the most was that after the first plot failed, Chong Yizi had actually immediately thought of a second one.
This second plot was none other than⌠this Shared Life Curse!
Put simply, this curse was similar to a mirror. As soon as it was used, the userâs state would mystically be reflected on the opponentâs body. In other words⌠the more seriously injured you were, the more serious your enemyâs injuries would become after using the technique!
Thus, if you wanted to use it, you had to be in an extremely miserable state. Only that would give you the greatest chance of victory. On the surface, perhaps this technique seemed to be a method of mutual destruction, but in fact, the Shared Life Curse actually had an additional effect that allowed the userâs injuries to temporarily heal rapidly, thus snatching victory from the jaws of defeat!
âLooking at it this way⌠although the fight so far was real, it was also fake, a performance deliberately put on by Chong Yizi. If he could defeat me, that would be the best outcome for him. But if he couldnât⌠he planned to activate this curse at a critical moment? Was he not confident in facing my Eternal Dao Star? Or maybe he feared my power of lawâŚâ
As Wang Baole pondered, rumbling sounds echoed from his body and wounds appeared out of nowhere. Blood spurted everywhere and his internal organs ruptured. Behind him, the star chart instantly dimmed and became blurry. All of this⌠was exactly the same as Chong Yiziâs current state.
âHow interesting. You know that my Raging Flame Galaxy is skilled in curse arts, and you also know that my curse art costs vitality. But you still want to compete with me in curse arts?
âYou seem to be very sure of yourself. Do you think that this Wangâs vitality⌠isnât enough to curse you?â Wang Baole ignored his internal and external injuries and didnât mind the dimness of his star chart. Truthfully, in terms of trump cards⌠he had many abilities that he hadnât yet used.
Although the amount of power he had used earlier wasnât the 30% that heâd been bluffing about, it was also not his complete strength.
For example, although he summoned the star chart, he hadnât used the divine ox projection. Neither had he chanted the Dao Scripture, and his intrinsic scabbard also remained unmoved.
After all, Wang Baole had only just advanced to the Eternal Star Realm. What he needed right now was not only a battle to help him gauge his current battle prowess, but also a good whetstone for him to sharpen himself against.
And in Wang Baoleâs eyes, Chong Yizi was the best whetstone!
He even had the vague sensation that his master, the Flame Patriarch, wasnât unaware of the battle going on here. Instead, the old man was deliberately not interfering in order to allow Wang Baole to sharpen himself against Chong Yizi!
âAlright, alright⌠I havenât used curse arts for a long time already. I probably donât look much like a disciple of the Raging Flame Galaxy.â Wang Baole suddenly grinned.
The Raging Flame Galaxyâs signature curse art was called the Flame Spirit Curse. The foundation of this curse was vitality, endless vitality. But even more important was⌠resentment, infinite resentment!
As he grinned, Wang Baole lifted an arm, and black threads rapidly appeared around his left hand. In an instant, they covered his entire hand, becoming dark veins that turned his left hand completely black!
From this black hand came a boundless resentment that surged in all directions, causing the entire starry sky to twist and distort. In the distance, Xie Haiyang and the othersâ expressions changed drastically. The scene reflected in their eyes seemed to no longer contain Wang Baole. There was only a brutal and boundless resentment converging on⌠his left hand!
This wasnât just the power of the devil blade, which had been known as a resentment weapon. It also contained the madness of the Burning Torch godling, the obsessiveness of the zombie, the perseverance of the hate-filled Chen Yang, and the determination to shatter the void that came from the little white deer!
Although Wang Baole couldnât bring forth all the resentment of his past lives, even just a part of it was enough. Seeing the black left hand filled with resentment, Chong Yiziâs expression abruptly changed!
But before he could react, astonishing vitality erupted from Wang Baole!
Vitality was something that Wang Baole lacked the least. That was because vitality was represented by wood, and Wang Baoleâs original body⌠was the three-chi-long black wooden board!
With a single thought, an illusory black wooden board appeared in the dim star chart behind Wang Baole. As soon as it appeared, a boom rang out, and unending vitality welled up in Wang Baoleâs body.
That vitality all converged on Wang Baoleâs right hand, which had risen high into the air at some point in time. Right now, Wang Baoleâs left hand contained infinite resentment and his right hand contained endless vitality. Swinging his arms forward, his ten fingers met at the center. Wang Baole suddenly looked at Chong Yizi, whose expression was shifting constantly, and spoke with a calm voice.
âFlame Spirit Curse!â
As soon as the words rang out, the starry sky rumbled, and Wang Baoleâs resentment and vitality abruptly thinned. Chong Yiziâs expression was full of disbelief as he let out a horrified shout.
âThis resentment, this vitality⌠Impossible!!â Screaming, he retreated rapidly, but he was still too slow. All the purple gas seemed to instantly boil and suddenly broke free of Chong Yiziâs control. Churning rapidly, it turned into three black daggers surrounded by countless ghastly skulls. The skulls let out soundless wails as the three daggers rushed toward Chong Yizi, piercing into his body in an instant!
