Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Rejuvenation Technique
"Ah..."
Facing this earth-shattering sword, the Beihai Venerable let out a long roar mixed with anger and terror, and then a dark blue Gang Qi erupted from within him.
"Cold Ice Thousand Years!"
The Beihai Venerable shouted, and the dark blue Gang Qi that erupted from within him made a crunching sound as it quickly attached itself to his body, forming ice. Within a short time, the Beihai Venerable became a massive block of ice, exuding an endless chill!
Bang!
Xiao Zheng’s golden Sword Qi landed on this massive block of dark blue ice, producing a thunderous clash that could shake the heavens and earth. The Sword Qi was too fierce, and after a moment of resistance, it slashed into the ice block with great force.
Crack, crack, crack...
Countless cracks appeared on the ice block, spreading rapidly across the entire body, with the most striking being the crack cut by the golden Sword Qi, which continued to slash down relentlessly.
The Beihai Venerable inside the ice block showed a look of terror and disbelief in his eyes.
The cultivation technique he had displayed was something he had comprehended himself after years of retreat in the Beihai, drawing inspiration from the concept of the North Pole Mysterious Ice that never melts for millions of years, and its defensive power was terrifyingly strong! But to his surprise, this technique couldn’t withstand Xiao Zheng at all.
"The attack is too fierce..."
The Beihai Venerable’s body trembled slightly. However, being a Martial Saint, his gaze quickly turned calm, followed by a fierce and sinister expression.
"Might as well stop defending and meet force with force!"
The Beihai Venerable pushed outward with both hands, and the mysterious ice shattered!
"Ahhhhhh––"
His eyes turned bloodshot as he let out a frenzied roar and suddenly cleaved his hands towards the sky, instantly forming a massive dark blue Gang Qi blade that roared out.
Bang!
In the nick of time, this dark blue blade appeared in front of him just as the golden Sword Qi descended upon his head, colliding with it.
Boom!
A ball of Gang Qi suddenly exploded, and then the golden Sword Qi swiftly and decisively cut through the dark blue blade, heading towards the Beihai Venerable’s head.
The Beihai Venerable was utterly terrified! At this moment, he had no other option but to forcibly shift his body sideways by a fraction, and immediately the golden Sword Qi severed one of his arms.
Blood spurted out as the severed arm flew into the sky.
"Ah..."
The Beihai Venerable let out a shrill scream, like that of an evil ghost.
He took advantage of this opportunity to retreat explosively, temporarily evading Xiao Zheng’s attack, but his eyes turned venomous as he looked at his severed arm lying far away.
"Evil God!"
The Beihai Venerable fiercely glared at Xiao Zheng, his eyes turning sinister and terrifying, like two ghostly flames brimming with intense hatred.
Meanwhile, the onlookers were in an uproar, all of them shocked. Earlier, they thought Xiao Zheng was at a disadvantage, and even the elders from Medicine King Valley and the masters from the Hushan Sect had made several glib remarks. But no one expected that in the end, Xiao Zheng would launch such a fierce counterattack, and the Beihai Venerable would have an arm severed!
It was terrifying.
The Beihai Venerable was an old-school Martial Saint with a renowned reputation, having previously created the fearsome record of killing Ancestor Xie of the Xie Family with a single punch. Such a formidable figure was now had an arm severed by Xiao Zheng!
The elder from Medicine King Valley and the master from Hushan Sect wore very unpleasant expressions, as uncomfortable as though they had eaten something dreadful. They originally wanted to see Xiao Zheng make a fool of himself, but now Xiao Zheng had seemed to be triumphant.
Long Qie and Titan excitedly shouted out, their palms sweating earlier, fearing that something unexpected might happen to Xiao Zheng, but the battle turned around dramatically!
Dugu Baitian and the woman in white remained calm, as if they had foreseen this outcome.
While everyone was reacting in various ways, the two people at the center of the battlefield remained standing still in place.
Thus, the scene quieted down for a moment.
Everyone was puzzled, wondering why? Why did Xiao Zheng not take advantage and pursue his victory?
In fact, the reason was simple: Xiao Zheng was already injured, and now having used the Flying Feather Sword Qi, his energy was greatly depleted! He had no strength left, so he had to pause and recover.
Initially, the Beihai Venerable’s attacks were fierce and effective, and Xiao Zheng’s body suffered significant injuries, causing his battle power to be greatly reduced!
"Phew..."
Xiao Zheng let out a long breath, stood in place, and began utilizing the Muscle Strengthening Scripture. Instantly, the Gang Qi within him rapidly circulated through special meridians, and his body’s injuries began quickly healing.
"Hmm?"
However, just after doing so, Xiao Zheng furrowed his brow. The recovery speed of the Muscle Strengthening Scripture was already fast, but for the current battlefield situation, it was still a bit slow! What if the Beihai Venerable attacks again?
"Let’s try the Rejuvenation Technique."
Xiao Zheng’s eyes glinted.
The Rejuvenation Technique was a cultivation technique he obtained from Medicine King Valley, an extremely powerful healing technique. As they say, specialization brings expertise, so compared to the Muscle Strengthening Scripture, this Rejuvenation Technique should be more effective.
Buzz—
As soon as he activated the technique, Xiao Zheng’s entire being emanated a robust life force, like the most flourishing tree in a tropical rainforest, growing rapidly.
His injuries began healing at a frighteningly rapid pace...
"..." The Medicine King Valley elder was completely speechless, feeling very frustrated, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
The Beihai Venerable in the center of the battlefield was even more shocked; what a rapid recovery speed!
He suddenly felt a chill in his heart. If Xiao Zheng’s injuries recover, he will surely strike again immediately. In his current state, it’s not good at all. If that happens, things wouldn’t look good for him.
"I must recover before the Evil God and launch an attack in advance." Beihai Venerable gritted his teeth.
After all, he was a renowned, experienced Martial Saint, and over the years managed to collect some very powerful martial arts tomes. At this moment, he quickly recalled them in his mind, and a cultivation technique burst into his consciousness.
Blood Burning!
Igniting the energy within, causing it to explode in a short time, thereby forming strong restorative and combat power.
This is a very crude cultivation technique, causing significant damage to the body, and once used, it could greatly affect lifespan! But the Beihai Venerable couldn’t afford to think about that now.
"Blood Burning, ahhh!"
The Beihai Venerable finally let out a maniacal scream, and then suddenly bundles of Gang Qi surged out from within him, producing booming sounds, like dark blue flames burning.
At this moment, the Beihai Venerable seemed to transform into a human-shaped torch, burning with dark blue flames, his demeanor frantic, continuously roaring as if possessed, frightening many into a shiver; it was too terrifying.
