Chapter 268: Zhou’s Long Sword Does Not Slay the Young and Old!
“Get lost!”
Zhou Tong erupted with terrifying brute strength, instantly overpowering the Golden-Winged Roc and sending it flying.
“Six Combinations Annihilation Sword, Heavenly Sword, Armageddon Lotus!”
In a split second, he unleashed his deadly move, a sword qi slashing out as if to tear open the sky.
A grayish-black line gently surged, appearing extremely slow, but seemingly mixed with the power of time, striking the Roc!
“Pu!!”
Even the body of a divine beast could not withstand this blow, as its defenses were easily breached, causing a large amount of blood to spatter, creating a curtain of red rain.
“Li!!”
The Roc cried out in pain, becoming more ferocious, flapping its wings to create a storm as it charged towards Zhou Tong.
“Whoosh…”
The torrent mixed with blood rushed toward Zhou Tong, drenching him in blood rain, attempting to lock him in place.
“This smell…”
Zhou Tong’s expression froze, and in an instant, his eyes turned red.
He drank down the blood of the Roc, feeling his lungs burning, and his entire flesh seemed to ignite.
“This is truly wonderful!”
His internal world gained endless vast energy, crazily expanding.
Sixteen thousand, seventeen thousand, eighteen thousand… and it showed no signs of stopping!
This visible enhancement left Zhou Tong unable to contain himself. When he looked back at the Roc, his gaze had completely changed.
Once he saw it as a divine beast, feeling a sense of awe.
Now that he understood its utility, it was nothing more than a pest that must be exterminated quickly!
A beast that eats humans, what else could it be but a pest?
As for how to deal with the pest, whether to kill it, bury it, steam it, or boil it, none of it mattered!
“Disciple, help me finish off this beast!”
At these words, Zhong Ningxue’s eyes widened.
“I’m going to fight the Roc, seriously?”
While questioning, her body moved first, taking Zhou Tong’s words as gospel.
“Five Elements God King Gu!”
“Millennia of Silent Destruction Gu!”
She unleashed formidable combat power, fully withstanding this force and delivering a shocking blow!
“Omniverse Illusion Seal, ten seals combined!”
Zhou Tong also launched an attack, the two combining to form a force capable of defeating a Sage!
However, at that moment, the Roc suddenly flapped its wings, directly traversing space and teleporting several dozen miles away, evading the tremendous blow!
“What a beast!”
Zhou Tong gritted his teeth, realizing it was going to be troublesome.
The Golden-Winged Roc inherently possessed the fastest speed in the world; an adult Roc could easily cover ninety thousand miles with a gentle flap of its wings!
It could be said that if it wanted to escape, hardly anyone could stop it.
Yet, the strange thing was that despite being at a disadvantage, the Golden-Winged Roc still did not flee, observing Zhou Tong and Zhong Ningxue from a distance, its eyes glinting with greed.
Up to this point, it still treated the two as prey.
It was nothing short of a beast, with a peculiar line of thought.
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but laugh, thinking that the genes of the Golden-Winged Roc must always see the human race as food, never bred with the concept of fleeing from humans.
Probably even the Phoenix did not expect that its offspring would encounter a human of Sage level right at birth, and this human’s spiritual power had even reached Imperial level!
“Master, I have a way to restrict its speed.”
Suddenly, Zhong Ningxue hesitated before speaking, causing Zhou Tong’s eyes to brighten.
“Quickly tell me.”
Zhong Ningxue opened her palm, where a green gu worm suddenly appeared.
“This is the Backwater Deadly Gu, specifically designed to counter the Life Revival Venom. Once successfully activated, it can confine the opponent to a specific area. Unless the gu user is killed, it cannot be undone.”
“This is truly a good item.”
Zhou Tong exclaimed in delight, taking the gu worm in hand.
“How do I use it?”
“Very simple, just hit it on the opponent!”
Before the words were finished, the Roc launched another attack; its wings shimmered with symbols, using space and wind to teleport once more!
“Come at me!”
Zhou Tong extended his thumb, then gently pressed down.
“Second Spiritual Power Bomb, Withering Soul Chase!”
In an instant, countless condensed spheres of spiritual power floated in the void, forming an imperceptible pool of lightning. The Golden-Winged Roc rushed headlong into it!
“Boom!!!”
The terrifying spiritual bombs exploded simultaneously, causing the Golden-Winged Roc to wail in agony, violently tumbling in the air.
“Good opportunity!”
Zhou Tong seized the moment of vulnerability, launching the gu worm into the Roc’s body.
“Now you can’t escape; obediently die!”
Xiao Bai jumped out, merging with Zhou Tong, making him the manifestation itself.
“Dharmakaya’s Formative Power!”
In an instant, he transformed into a giant, reaching towards the Roc as if grabbing a small bird.
Seeing this scene, the Golden-Winged Roc felt fear for the first time, its instinct to flee awakening.
However, it was too late; it was tightly constrained, unable to evade, and Zhou Tong grasped it firmly!
Immediately, Zhong Ningxue witnessed a scene that would remain imprinted in her memory for life.
Amidst the swirling terrifying aura, the Golden-Winged Roc was actually torn apart, both wings ripped off, screaming as it fell from the sky!
“Ahhhh…”
In a daze, the Roc let out a scream similar to a human’s; countless lights surged from all directions, enveloping its body, seemingly attempting to heal its injuries.
“Quick, hurry! This beast is about to transform into human form!”
Zhou Tong urgently said, his voice filled with anxiety.
“Will it become stronger if it transforms into human form?”
Zhong Ningxue asked seriously.
“No, it won’t be good if it turns into a human; I don’t like eating human-shaped creatures!”
This reason left Zhong Ningxue flabbergasted; she hadn’t expected this guy to have such a peculiar obsession.
“Kill!!”
Without further ado, both of them struck simultaneously, dispersing the light surrounding the Roc and preventing its transformation, thoroughly injuring its essence.
At that moment, the surrounding spatial storm finally ceased, signaling the Golden-Winged Roc’s end.
With a loud bang!
The Roc crashed heavily to the ground, and Zhou Tong and Zhong Ningxue landed, standing above it.
“It’s time to end this.”
Zhou Tong drew his black sword, preparing to launch the final strike.
“Big brother, spare my life; I won’t dare again!”
Suddenly, the Roc’s spirit emerged from its head, transforming into the likeness of a young boy.
“Spare you? Let you go eat humans again?” Zhou Tong said coldly.
“I swear, I will never eat humans again; please grant me a lifeline!”
It pleaded, but a bloodthirsty gleam flickered in its eyes; in this world, everyone eats humans—what beast doesn’t eat humans?
“Forget it, Zhou’s long sword does not slay the young and old.”
Zhou Tong sighed, sheathing the black sword.
“Master, do you still have a short sword?” Zhong Ningxue approached, looking at him with a complicated expression.
“Haha… you think too poorly of me; how could I be that despicable?”
Saying this, he pulled out a spirit talisman and tossed it away.
“Spirit Seal 93, a knife of cremation!”
