Chapter 289 178: Ancient Immortal's Mortal Form (Part 2)
The blood holes and penetration, neither bleed, heal instantly in this rain!
He reveals a cold smile...the cold smile belonging to the Round Stone Ancient Immortal.
"Is it something from the array pathway?
"I thought the grass's effect was strange!
"So, it's the Dream Origin?
"Humans want to understand dreams?
"It's not that necessary!
"Some things are better left unknown, why bring trouble upon yourself?"
In front, another Sequence Eight Sword Immortal swings his sword to block Xue Yong, or rather the Ancient Immortal!
Yet the Ancient Immortal's figure changes, instantly becoming as thin as a sheet of paper, slicing through the storm, flying towards the Sequence Eight Sword Immortal!
Thunk!
The Sword Immortal's right arm and sword, along with the flying blood, and a sudden painful grunt, went straight into the storm!
The Ancient Immortal's paper-thin body flew up to the stage with the wind, gently falling, then expanding back to his fat form.
He glanced at the Dream Orchids disappearing one by one, suddenly laughing, his laughter wild in the wind and rain!
"Hahahahahaha!
"Who is the thief here!"
He can only control Xue Yong's flesh, and the pitifully little blood qi within Xue Yong. After all, Xue Yong is only Sequence Nine, without Divine Sense or Immortal Qi.
But he can utilize Xue Yong's flesh and the pitifully little blood qi to the extreme!
At this moment, one of his hands instantly fills with blood, turning red, instantly exploding, shattering into thousands of fragments, splattering in all directions, covering the entire stage! Each fragment carries terrifying kinetic energy, anything hit by these fragments will be pierced through!
On stage, the thief wearing the Invisibility Cloak...can the cloak block these fragments?
...
Under the stage, Wu Qingyun has already charged back with her sword!
The Peacock Red Treasure flaps its wings and flies up into the rainy night, its cries echoing throughout the field!
Bai Mo is held by Su Yaoyao, the two lying down together, pretending to be dead in the accumulated rainwater...
Bai Mo is pressed down, feeling softness, warmth, and the trembling from extreme fear!
Because, Su Yaoyao's headphones have already heard...the enemy on stage is an Ancient Immortal!
Bai Mo's face is pressed into the water, slightly frustrated. At this moment, his Heart Thought moves...
...
On stage, flesh fragments shoot everywhere, terrifying in power!
But in an instant, the descending rain suddenly becomes heavy, sticky, stringing along!
A bit of flesh fragment crashes into each raindrop, actually being intercepted!
All the flesh fragments collide with the falling raindrops, in the sound of heavy rain, dye the rain red, dropping, and coloring the ground red.
In the red rain, the Round Stone Ancient Immortal laughs up to the sky!
"Hahahaha!
"Hahaha!
"Alchemist! Alchemist! An alchemist can actually achieve this level?
"Are you human or an Ancient Immortal?"
While laughing wildly, his eyes fix on the last two orchids, seeing them being pulled from their pots!
His large fat body instantly charges forward, face full of sinister grin!
"Let me see, what is this invisible thief!"
Star Ear and Round Ears, who are pulling the last two orchids, don't mind at all.
Plop!
Plop!
The last two orchids are pulled out simultaneously.
White mist rises, they enter it, returning to Fox Mountain.
But seemingly a bit too late, the fox tail might be stepped on by the Ancient Immortal's probing foot...
Then at this moment, within the white mist, Star Belly invisibly emerges!
It stands tall, proud, wearing the Wind Roll Armor, covered by the Invisibility Cloak...suddenly remembering generals, aren't they all like this, armor covered by a cloak or robe?
Its belly with star spots is also a general's belly.
Hoo...
In the rapid wind, the Ancient Immortal's foot has already fallen!
Star Belly instantly reacts, stepping up, delivering with the leg and hip, pushing the body with shoulder and elbow, Mountain Lean, blasting out!
Bang!
A muffled sound!
Its shoulder and elbow, its Mountain Lean, its Wind Roll Armor, crash into the Ancient Immortal's lower leg!
Buzz～
With intense vibration, the Ancient Immortal's lower leg resonates, instantly bursting into powder, fleshly shards flying, bones bursting into white fragments scattering!
"Ah?
"What is this Immortal Beast?!"
The Round Stone Ancient Immortal adjusts his balance in an instant.
Then sees the white mist rising again and disappearing, this unknown Immortal Beast also returns to the dream.
On stage, rain pours, leaving only an Ancient Immortal missing a leg, and sixteen empty flower pots.
In the high sky on a rainy night, the Peacock Red Treasure spread its wings, shivering while mustering courage to attack!
At the edge of the stage, Wu Qingyun was drenched by the rain, her hair sticking to her forehead, rainwater streaming down her cheeks. She remained fully alert, but only held her sword to maintain distance without stepping forward.
Her intuition told her that this Ancient Immortal was nearly done for!
Sure enough...
Amidst the torrential rain, the Ancient Immortal coughed up blood, shrank, his head became small, reverting back to Xue Yong's head, his body diminished, reverting back to Xue Yong's body.
His committee uniform, just recently burst open, drenched by the rain, looked particularly bedraggled at this moment.
Bloodstains crisscrossed Xue Yong's face.
His expression was full of confusion and pain.
Two streaks of bloody tears ran down, washed away by the relentless rain.
Thud!
Unable to balance on a single leg, he fell, splattering water!
Subsequently, his body, his skin, his flesh, under the downpour... dissolved.
Watched by Wu Qingyun, he turned into a soggy mass of flesh, fragmented bone scraps washed away by the rain, gradually disappeared on the stage, leaving only a tattered and filthy committee uniform scattered on the ground.
...
In the bright classroom.
Bai Mo had changed into clean clothes, wiping mud from his hair with a towel.
Beside him, Su Yaoyao had changed into a loose martial arts outfit, which couldn't conceal her graceful curves.
"Expert Bai Mo, I am your lifesaver!
"If I hadn't reacted quickly, pulling you down to hide, we might have been discovered by the Ancient Immortal.
"If we had been discovered, wouldn't we have been instantly obliterated?"
Bai Mo tugged at the corner of his mouth.
This woman did indeed have good intentions.
But he wasn't necessarily required to be so embarrassed.
With a casual pose and some swagger, it could have been resolved, so why lie in the puddle playing dead?
But it's hard to explain!
Bai Mo had no choice but to say.
"Uh... well... thank you, Sister Yaoyao."
Su Yaoyao gave a sly smile.
"How will you thank me?
"In the next life, be a cattle or a horse?
"Or in this life, give yourself to me?"
What?
Bai Mo was taken aback.
Though unsure of the existence of reincarnation or the afterlife, neither option appealed to him...
In the classroom, other Immortal Technique Committee members were present. For example, Wu Qingyun, who picked up a phone call, helping Bai Mo out of the awkward situation.
"Hello?
"Everyone is alright.
"Su Yaoyao, Bai Mo, Wu Qingyun, all are safe.
"Li Lu, the expert from Shangjing who came to support, had her arm severed by the Ancient Immortal. But the wound is smooth, easy to fix.
"Xue Yong is dead."
At this point, the classroom instantly fell silent, the atmosphere suddenly solemn.
The voice on the other end of the call wasn't loud, yet everyone in the room could hear.
"His body was used by the Ancient Immortal.
"This technique of blood and flesh manipulation is unseen by us, unseen immortal technique.
"But it is an excessive use! Used too harshly! So much that... all his bodily tissue dissolved away."
The voice on the other end also grew agitated!
"We warned him!
"We told him not to get too close to the Ancient Immortal!
"We told him not to trust the Ancient Immortal!
"We told him to focus on synchronized intel, to share what happened each day in the dream!
"But he always paid lip service!
"He didn't see himself as an Immortal Technique Committee member, only as the Ancient Immortal's disciple!
"He's dead, just dead, all is over, but he has a family. How can we explain to his mother?
"Wuuu…"
The voice on the phone seemed to belong to Xue Yong's direct supervisor, usually disregarded by Xue Yong, yet now collapsing, losing composure, crying aloud.
The classroom sank deeper into silence.
Bai Mo remained expressionless.
The war with the Ancient Immortal was brutal. No margin for negligence or childishness.
He recalled those Dream Grasses.
"Today the Ancient Immortal was anxious. After discovering the grass was linked to the Dream Origin, he panicked!
"What does he not want humans to know?
"Within these grasses, what secrets and knowledge are hidden?"
