Chapter 202: Tang Qi: Revive, My Dignity!
“Smack!”
The sound of a slap echoed loudly as Zhou Tong struck the old man across the face.
The old man’s head was knocked askew, his front teeth spun out and flew away, but there was no trace of anger on his face.
“Hahaha… Little ghost, now you know the severity, huh? This is the consequence of daring to strike me!”
He was complacent, thinking that Zhou Tong had suffered a backlash.
On closer inspection, Zhou Tong’s face was indeed flushed red, a sign of experiencing a backlash.
“Hmph! Just this much!”
Zhou Tong pretended to say, his face filled with stubbornness.
“You little brat still dare to talk tough? It seems you don’t understand the methods of my Heavenly Gu Clan.”
The old man grew more arrogant, pointing to his own face and saying, “If you have the ability, come at me a few more times and see if I don’t take care of you!”
“You said it!”
Zhou Tong laughed wildly in his heart, swinging his arms in a circle.
“Smack!”
The old man felt as though he had been struck by lightning, his entire body shivering, expressing disbelief.
“Kid! How does this taste?”
He looked at Zhou Tong and saw that his face had turned even redder, causing him to feel a sense of pleasure.
“Refreshing!”
Zhou Tong blurted out, making the cold smile on the old man’s face deepen.
“Just keep pretending, if you have the ability, come again.”
“Smack!”
“Yo, little ghost, you’re quite tough. Do you dare to come again?”
“Old man, watch my Lightning Whirlwind Slash!”
“Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack…”
Zhou Tong was completely addicted, swinging his arms so fast that they left shadows, sending the old man a hundred consecutive slaps in an instant.
“Ah, ah, ah…”
The old man screamed in agony, his entire face flushed, his mind nearly in a daze from the beating!
“Stop! You little beast, stop it now!”
Finally, he realized the situation and began to struggle violently, managing to break free from Zhou Tong’s slap hell.
“You old ghost do have some skills.”
Zhou Tong taunted, “Your skin is truly tough, you really made my hand hurt!”
“Hahaha…”
The crowd below burst into laughter, causing the old man to feel humiliated and furious.
“How dare you insult me! Give me your life!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he unleashed his full strength from the Ninth Layer of Life and Death, punching toward Zhou Tong.
But the next moment, the power of the laws surged in, heavily pressing down on him.
“Poof!”
The old man immediately vomited blood, his breath becoming incredibly weak.
“How is this possible!”
He said in disbelief, seeing that Zhou Tong had not suffered any backlash. He thought the laws had failed, not realizing that they only affected him.
“You little beast, I’ve remembered your little face!”
The old man trembled as he was helped up, his face already a bloody mess, yet he still did not forget to threaten.
“I, Zhong Feng, swear to heaven, I will tear you apart in the future!”
“What did you say your name was?”
Zhou Tong frowned and asked.
“I’m called Zhong Feng, now do you know to be afraid?”
Just as his words fell, he noticed a gourd with an opening appear in Zhou Tong’s hand.
“What is that?”
Before he could finish his question, the gourd opened its mouth and sprayed a brilliant light, completely enveloping him.
“Ah, ah, ah!”
Caught off guard, the old man was sucked into the gourd.
“My grandson, you can just stay inside and cultivate well!”
Seeing this scene, the members of the Heavenly Gu Clan were all dumbfounded.
They had run into a tough opponent!
“Run, go find the Grand Elder for revenge!”
Someone shouted, and instantly, the members of the Heavenly Gu Clan scattered like birds.
“Consider yourselves lucky.”
Zhou Tong said coldly. Due to the laws’ suppression, he did not engage in a massacre—this was a wise choice.
Then everyone stepped into the city, and with a flash of light, a massive amount of information appeared in everyone’s mind.
This was the rules of the city, and everyone had to abide by them.
The information indicated that the second layer had been divided into two areas: the inner city as a safe zone, where no one could harm others except the natives, or they would suffer a backlash from the laws.
The outer city was a development zone where murder could occur freely, along with many ruins and powerful strange creatures.
Exploring could yield vast amounts of spirit coins or other opportunities, all of which could be exchanged for treasures in the safe zone.
The safe zone had a total of eight major merchants located in eight directions of the city, each selling different items.
They included bloodlines, bodies, energy, information, laws, strong strikes, treasures, and ultimate skills.
It was said that as long as you could pay the price, nothing was impossible to buy.
After receiving the information, everyone showed astonished expressions.
This world was indeed miraculous!
“Heirs of the Mountain Ghost Clan, you’ve finally arrived.”
At this moment, a ball of light appeared before Zhou Tong.
“What are you?” Zhou Tong asked warily.
“I am not a thing.”
The light orb replied in a friendly voice: “As an heir of the Four Symbols Pool, as long as you come here, you can receive a reward once. You can select one of the eight major merchants to receive a random gift!”
“Then I’ll choose laws.”
Zhou Tong said without hesitation.
As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of light descended from the sky and landed in his hand.
“Regulations, Divine Authority!”
Seeing this item, Zhou Tong’s eyes lit up; this was indeed a law.
The effect was as long as someone sincerely worshipped him, he could receive a thread of their faith and vitality, and it would also impose pressure on them.
It seemed somewhat unremarkable, but as the Grand Elder of the Joyful Union Sect, he could create ultimate skills. He wasn’t afraid of not having anyone to sincerely worship him.
With this law, he could rapidly level up within the Cycle Realm.
“Let’s go, let’s explore around!”
…
At this moment, Tang Qi, who had escaped from Zhou Tong’s beating, also arrived in the safe zone.
He rushed straight to the body shop and spent a large sum to buy the parts he had long desired.
“Revive, my dignity!”
His lower body emitted a dazzling light, instantly restoring him to completeness.
“Awesome!”
He said with immense satisfaction, feeling exultant, as if he was capable of anything.
“Indeed, one section is better than six sections; when it comes to quality, quantity is merely fleeting!”
After the celebration, his expression darkened again, filled with hatred in his heart, as Zhou Tong’s image resurfaced in his mind.
“I want you to die without a burial place!”
In an instant, he arrived at the ultimate skill shop.
“Do you have any ultimate skills that can curse someone to death from a distance?” he asked bluntly, declaring his intention straight away.
“We do, the Seven Arrow Curse, ten thousand spirit coins!”
The shopkeeper said as he handed him a light orb containing the method for casting.
After payment, Tang Qi eagerly took a glance, and a smile spread across his face.
“This is indeed a good thing.”
According to this method, as long as he carved the target’s image and wrote their name, then sincerely bowed to the image for forty-nine days, the cursed target would die!
“Good, good, but the time is too long,” Tang Qi complained.
“Pay me three thousand spirit coins, and I’ll tell you a shortcut.”
The shopkeeper’s eyes sparkled with cunning.
Tang Qi ultimately agreed.
“Come closer… listen to me, as long as you bow a thousand times to that person’s image every day, it will take effect within two days!”
“Very well, then I’ll start the spell today!”
Tang Qi was overjoyed, eagerly wanting to try; he didn’t want Zhou Tong to live even a second longer!
