Chapter 125: Puzhi’s Fall
Qi Hao, upon hearing Black Impermanence’s fierce and menacing threat, immediately let out a cold laugh:
“Just you, and you dare claim to represent the Underworld? You really think you can scare people? Black Impermanence is a true god of heaven and earth—how could he be as weak as you? You’re nothing more than a counterfeit wearing Black Impermanence’s skin!”
Black Impermanence’s expression changed abruptly. He had never expected his disguise to be seen through so easily.
Yet how could he be willing to admit defeat so readily? He immediately roared angrily, “Hmph! Whether I am Black Impermanence of the Underworld is not for you to judge! Obstructing the Underworld’s law enforcement today has already violated the iron laws—one day you will all pay the price!”
Qin Wuyan likewise sneered in response, “How the Underworld punishes us remains to be seen, but you can forget about leaving here alive today!”
Before his words had even fallen, his eyes spun rapidly as the Mangekyō Sharingan manifested. He suddenly shouted, “Amaterasu!”
In an instant, a stream of black flames swept toward Black Impermanence.
Black Impermanence was greatly alarmed and cried out in shock, “Blood Wheel Eye—how is this possible?!”
Qin Wuyan replied with cold mockery, “If a fake Black Impermanence like you can even appear, what’s so strange about a Blood Wheel Eye?”
Black Impermanence’s expression turned horrified as realization finally dawned on him. “So you’re also a transmigrator!”
He hurriedly shook his chains, forming a barrier in front of himself that blocked the black flames entirely.
The Amaterasu Flames, said to burn anything without exception, extinguished instantly upon contacting the gloomy, chilling energy on the chains.
This scene shocked even Qin Wuyan. He knew well the might of the Amaterasu Flames—within the same realm, without special means, they were virtually impossible to resist.
Seeing this, Black Impermanence let out an arrogant cold laugh. “Trivial tricks!” His eyes were filled with killing intent. “I never thought that besides me, there would be other transmigrators in this world. You all must die!”
With that, the chains shot out like venomous snakes, lunging straight toward Qin Wuyan.
Qin Wuyan’s expression changed drastically as he hastily cried for help, “I beg everyone to lend a hand!”
The various aberrant spirits exchanged glances, then erupted with terrifying attacks amid the chaos of incomprehensible sounds, joining forces to block the chains.
In their view, they were now standing together with Qin Wuyan against a common enemy. If they lost this helper, their overall strength would drop sharply—an outcome they were absolutely unwilling to accept.
Having heard the exchange, Lu Xueqi had already confirmed that Black Impermanence was indeed a transmigrator.
She no longer hesitated. Golden lightning surged violently around her body, even her hair shimmering with a golden hue, as if a thunder god had descended upon the world.
As her control over the All-Heavens Divine Thunder grew ever more proficient, the power she unleashed at this moment far surpassed that of the past.
She struck out with a single palm, and countless bolts of lightning condensed into a terrifying gigantic hand that roared toward Black Impermanence.
Black Impermanence’s expression shifted slightly. After shattering the attacks from the aberrant spirits and Qin Wuyan, he hurriedly turned back to block. Though this strike was not Lu Xueqi’s full strength, its power was still astonishing.
The instant the chains barely blocked the attack, Black Impermanence’s body stalled slightly, and golden lightning surged along the chains into his body.
Lu Xueqi seized the opportunity. Her figure flashed as she appeared behind Black Impermanence, striking out with another palm.
Completely unguarded, Black Impermanence was blasted away directly, crashing into the mountain wall like a meteor. Blood sprayed wildly, and his aura instantly withered.
Seeing this, both the crowd and the aberrant spirits were ignited with hope, and they all chased toward the mountain wall.
Black Impermanence felt unbearable pain as the power of lightning rampaged within his body, continuously eroding his vitality.
He was filled with regret. He had only wanted to come out to establish his authority and earn shock points—who could have expected so many unforeseen changes?
Sensing the pursuit, he forcibly mustered his strength to suppress the lightning within him, leaving behind an afterimage as he fled at high speed.
Everyone’s attacks instantly slammed into Black Impermanence’s phantom. The entire mountain was directly blown apart, producing a thunderous rumble.
Yet before anyone could even slightly relax, Black Impermanence suddenly reappeared. His chains, like ghostly phantoms, pierced through the body of an Aberrant Spirit King, killing it in the blink of an eye.
Immediately after, the chains lashed out toward another Aberrant Spirit King.
That Aberrant Spirit King hurriedly counterattacked, but under the vast disparity in strength, his attack was shattered instantly, and his body was blasted into ashes by the chains.
This sudden turn of events terrified the remaining four Aberrant Spirit Kings. They hurriedly gathered together, staring vigilantly at Black Impermanence with fear filling their eyes.
After annihilating those two Aberrant Spirit Kings, Black Impermanence spat out another mouthful of black blood.
The aura around his entire body weakened even further.
This was the result of him forcibly striking after barely escaping with his life, disregarding the injuries within his body, in order to kill those two Aberrant Spirit Kings.
At this moment, as time passed, the usage duration of the Black Impermanence Experience Card on his body was also nearing its limit.
And at this very moment, Lu Xueqi appeared behind him like a ghost.
She extended a finger once more. In an instant, a pitch-black beam of light, amid Black Impermanence’s extremely horrified gaze, pierced straight through his chest, directly perforating his torso.
Under this overwhelming force, Black Impermanence was flung away once again.
Just as everyone thought that Lu Xueqi’s strike had already killed this so-called Black Impermanence, coughing sounds suddenly emerged from the black mist surrounding his flung-out corpse.
Those coughing sounds caused everyone to focus their attention once more.
They saw that within the black mist, Black Impermanence slowly crawled back to his feet.
However, his movements were extremely sluggish now, as though he were enduring endless agony with every action, and even his original appearance began to grow somewhat illusory.
Black Impermanence murmured weakly and unwillingly, “How could this be? Why is it like this?”
But no matter how he roared in a low voice, the experience card on his body had already expired, and in the final instant, it shattered completely……
Under the shocked gazes of everyone present, the Black Impermanence before them vanished in an instant. When he appeared again, it was as an aged figure.
The moment they saw this figure, everyone present widened their eyes in shock.
Especially Zhang Xiaofan, Lin Jingyu, as well as Fa Xiang and Fa Shan—each of them trembled violently.
Fa Xiang even cried out in alarm, “Martial Uncle! How is it you?!”
Fa Shan likewise stared at everything before him in disbelief.
Zhang Xiaofan’s entire body trembled—he saw Puzhi once again, and this time, a living Puzhi.
This shocked him immensely, because in his original memories, after Puzhi annihilated Caomiao Village, he had taken the Three-Day Certain Death Pill and passed away upon returning to Tianyin Temple. How could he still be alive?
With the appearance of this figure, the final mastermind behind everything had also been revealed. It was none other than Puzhi of Tianyin Temple.
Looking at Puzhi before her, Lu Xueqi instantly understood everything.
This Puzhi should have been a transmigrator, and moreover, a transmigrator possessing a System. His previous actions were most likely carried out in order to obtain something.
At this moment, Puzhi’s expression was extremely ugly.
He hurriedly commanded the System within his body, “System, quickly teleport me away!”
As Puzhi’s words fell, faint spatial-temporal fluctuations suddenly spread around his body.
Lu Xueqi was greatly alarmed. She knew that Puzhi was trying to escape from this place!
She no longer cared about conserving her strength. The power throughout her entire body erupted violently. Countless bolts of lightning gathered between her hands, instantly forming into a golden Thunder Spear.
Lu Xueqi fiercely thrust toward Puzhi. Deafening booms rang out continuously as the spear tore through the air, appearing before Puzhi like an illusion.
Looking at the lightning spear rushing toward him, Puzhi was horrified and wanted to block it, yet discovered that his entire body was powerless.
With his chest pierced through, if not for the remnants of his cultivation supporting him, he would have perished long ago.
The spatial-temporal fluctuations around him flickered rapidly, and his figure grew increasingly illusory.
Just as Puzhi was about to leave, Lu Xueqi’s golden spear slashed directly onto his body.
In an instant, terrifying might erupted, reducing Puzhi to flying ash, while the void around him was pulverized into dust by that single strike.
This was not because Lu Xueqi’s power was sufficient to shatter the void itself.
Rather, at that moment, the System was using its teleportation ability, weakening the surrounding spatial-temporal force to the extreme, which was why Lu Xueqi’s spear directly smashed the void.
With Puzhi’s fall, two urgent shouts suddenly rang out beside Lu Xueqi’s ears: “Stop!”
She turned her head to look, only to see Fa Xiang and Fa Shan extending their hands toward her, as if trying to stop her from killing Puzhi.
