The Immortal Demon Chart,as an immortal artifact brand,was naturally beyond doubt in terms of power.
But the God-Weeping War Halberd was no ordinary object either.
The mere fact that it had served as the personal weapon of the first War God was proof enough of its worth.
Jun Xiaoyao had a vague feeling that the God-Weeping War Halberd was somehow connected to the secret of the Six World-Destroying Kings.
A demonic weapon of that caliber could not be easily destroyed,not even when faced with an immortal artifact brand.
At this moment,Jun Xiaoyao swung the God-Weeping War Halberd,its razor-sharp blade carving rifts through the void.
The dark golden halberd radiance carried an supreme demonic might capable of cleaving the heavens apart.
Boom!
Like a thousand great stars exploding at once,the ripples of magical power sent the entire Purple Gold Ancient Hall into violent trembling!
Amid that explosion.
Ji Qingyi's delicate body shuddered,and the force of the rebound made her spit blood from her lips,staining her snow-white veil crimson.
Even Ji Qingyi,who had always been flawlessly calculating,showed a flash of shock.
She had feigned weakness earlier precisely to lull her opponent into complacency,then suppress him directly with the Immortal Demon Chart brand.
Not necessarily enough to kill a Chaos Body outright,but at least enough to wound him,buy time,and allow her to retreat.
Who could have anticipated that her opponent still possessed such a supremely powerful demonic weapon.
"A weapon is never the deciding factor,what matters is who wields it."
Jun Xiaoyao's voice dropped low,carrying a magnetic hoarseness.
The immortal artifact brand was indeed formidable,but it also depended on who was using it.
If Jun Xiaoyao were the one to unleash it,its power would naturally be far greater.
At this moment,Jun Xiaoyao seized the opportunity,using the God-Weeping War Halberd to resist the suppressive might of the Immortal Demon Chart.
At the same time,with his other hand,he pressed down toward Ji Qingyi in suppression.
Finally,he used his bare hand to close around Ji Qingyi's swan-like snow-white neck.
The scene froze for a moment.
"It's over." Jun Xiaoyao said.
Ji Qingyi's eyes flickered,and she withdrew the Immortal Demon Chart brand back into her body.
Jun Xiaoyao also put away the God-Weeping War Halberd.
With just a slight exertion of force,he could crush Ji Qingyi's throat and shatter her primordial spirit directly.
It could be said that Ji Qingyi's life and death rested entirely on a single thought from Jun Xiaoyao!
"I lost." Ji Qingyi said in a calm,flat tone.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao did not lower his hand.
This woman Ji Qingyi schemed far too deeply.
That move with the Immortal Demon Chart earlier,if one were not careful,would have left even an ordinary seed-level genius severely wounded.
It was precisely because Jun Xiaoyao had absolute confidence in his own strength that he could handle any sudden development.
"Why still wear a blood-stained veil?"
With his other hand,Jun Xiaoyao tore away Ji Qingyi's veil.
Instantly,a face of peerless beauty was revealed,one that could make heaven and earth pale in comparison.
Her complexion was like the bright moon,her eyes held the ripples of autumn waters,her lips were red and her teeth like jade,her features carved as if from snow and ivory.
Such extraordinary beauty was rare in the world.
No wonder she wore a veil,for without it,wherever she went,countless men would lose their senses.
At this moment,with blood at the corner of Ji Qingyi's lips,she looked all the more pitifully captivating,stirring feelings of tenderness.
An ordinary man might truly find it hard to bring himself to act against her.
Beneath the ghost-face mask,Jun Xiaoyao's gaze had not changed from beginning to end.
This was not the first time he had seen Ji Qingyi's true face beneath the veil.
Back at the seventieth pass of the Ancient Road on the Desolate Star,Ji Qingyi had appeared before him.
She had even taken the initiative to remove her veil,saying that her face had only ever been shown to Jun Xiaoyao.
As for Jun Xiaoyao,he felt nothing particular toward Ji Qingyi.
Neither fondness nor dislike.
Although someone like Ji Qingyi,in a past life,would probably have been called a scheming woman.
But as long as she did not scheme against or provoke Jun Xiaoyao,he had no reason to kill her,for that would serve no purpose.
What did pique his interest was Ji Qingyi herself as a person.
That kind of interest was like the curiosity one feels upon encountering a rare and unusual creature,a desire to study it further.
Just what other secrets did Ji Qingyi still hold.
"Are you going to kill me?"
Ji Qingyi said.
Her tone was as cool and composed as ever,as though she had not registered the gravity of her current situation.
"Do you think I should?"
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward,fingers pinching Ji Qingyi's snow-white chin,his body drawing close to hers.
He could even faintly sense the soft and graceful curves of Ji Qingyi's jade-like figure.
This caused a faint flush to rise across Ji Qingyi's pale complexion.
It was a trace of embarrassed indignation.
No matter how deep Ji Qingyi's scheming ran,no matter how far her calculations reached.
She was,in the end,a woman.
And Ji Qingyi had her limits.
She had never once used her beauty or her body as a bargaining chip.
In her eyes,nearly every man in the world was filthy and foolish to the extreme.
That was precisely why she wore the veil,unwilling to let those lecherous,shameless,and utterly mediocre men catch a glimpse of her face.
Even Ji Daoyi had never seen her true appearance,and could not even come within three feet of her.
In the end,he died in a wretched state at Ji Qingyi's hands.
Among all men,only Jun Xiaoyao had ever made her eyes light up and regard him differently.
In her eyes,other men were flesh and bone made of mud,while Jun Xiaoyao was flesh and bone made of water.
What a pity that this man,whom she somewhat admired,was no longer in this world.
"If you let me go,I can tell you something." Ji Qingyi blinked her eyes and said.
"Oh,what kind of information?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Promise to release me first." Ji Qingyi said.
"That depends on whether your information has any value." Jun Xiaoyao said.
Ji Qingyi was silent for a moment,then said,"You are one of the Six World-Destroying Kings,a great threat to the Immortal Domain. You have already been placed on the Decapitation Guard's kill list."
"To encircle and eliminate you,they have specifically brought the Primordial Ninth Slaughter Formation."
Ji Qingyi's words caught Jun Xiaoyao somewhat off guard,yet were also within reason.
Jun Xiaoyao had known that the Immortal Domain would send people to hunt him down.
What surprised him was that they had even mobilized the Primordial Ninth Slaughter Formation.
That was a terrifying offensive grand formation passed down from the primordial era,ranked ninth among all such formations.
The Jun clan's clan-protecting grand formation was the Primordial Third Slaughter Formation,whose might was incomparably fearsome.
As for the first and second slaughter formations,rumor had it they had been completely lost to history.
Although the Primordial Ninth Slaughter Formation could not compare to the Primordial Third Slaughter Formation,it was by no means weak.
Using it to encircle a young genius was truly like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
"Is this information enough?" Ji Qingyi said.
She did not care in the least what impact leaking this information might have on the plan.
As long as she could free herself and preserve her life,that was enough.
"Heh……"
Jun Xiaoyao gave a soft laugh,raised his hand,and let the chaotic aura breathe in and out from his fingertips.
Then,he traced across Ji Qingyi's fair and delicate face,leaving behind a mark.
"You……"
Ji Qingyi's delicate body trembled.
A mark had been left on her face,one that could not easily be erased.
For any woman,especially one of peerless beauty,this was something utterly unacceptable.
"This mark contains the power of chaos and the laws of order. Only I can erase it,remember that."
Jun Xiaoyao smiled,and his palm released Ji Qingyi's jade-like neck.
This was meant as a warning to Ji Qingyi,to keep her from being so presumptuous and thinking she could scheme against everyone.
It was also a way to exert psychological pressure on her.
When dealing with a woman like Ji Qingyi,there was no need to beat around the bush,just break her spirit and then conquer her,that was enough.
Ji Qingyi's full chest rose and fell,she gave Jun Xiaoyao a long,deep look,then put on a new veil to conceal the blemish on her face.
She turned and flew away.
She had committed this to memory completely.
It would have been hard not to.
Jun Xiaoyao watched Ji Qingyi disappear into the distance,unconcerned.
He felt certain that Ji Qingyi still harbored secrets.
There would be no rush to investigate once he returned to the Immortal Domain in the future.
"Now then,next is……"
Jun Xiaoyao turned around and looked toward the Pool of Laws.
"The Pool of Laws,the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Elixir,and……the Divine Demon Ants."
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
Had he struck it rich this time?
