Chapter 496: Chapter 331: Heavenly Punishment Fire Burns in the Eyes_2

The other party was indeed very good to him.

*If only their thoughts weren’t so obscene, it would be even better.*

*Thinking this, he glanced at his status again.*

There was no doubt he had fallen into the Charming Technique.

*He always felt that Chu Meng never turned off the Charming Technique.*

But on the way here, he didn’t feel it being activated once.

Without continuing to ask this question, Gu An inquired about the recent events.

Everything was told truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Chu Meng was stunned for a moment, "It can still burn?"

"Yes, it can still catch fire," Gu An said with some concern, "I don’t know if it will reignite later."

Chu Meng pondered for a long while and then said, "In your situation, there is no specific answer because, according to various sources, no one has ever been able to extinguish the flames of the Eye of Heavenly Punishment.

"It burns everything in one go, unlike your situation here, where it burns once and then extinguishes.

"Perhaps this fire seems to have been put out, but there are still sparks hidden within your heart and mind.

"Like a shadow, whoever touches it will cause the sparks to reignite like a breeze blowing on a flame.

"However, there is still a difference from the Eye of Heavenly Punishment breaking its seal because at least you can extinguish it.

"If the Eye of Heavenly Punishment were to appear, you wouldn’t be able to put it out."

"Then what should be done?" Gu An didn’t want to carry this fire around forever.

*Whoever blows on it will get burned.*

*As long as I am free, it’s fine.*

*But what if it happens at a critical moment while being targeted?*

*Or during a serious injury?*

*There’s simply no way to extinguish this fire.*

*By then, I would be burned to ashes.*

*Like this bolt of lightning, nine times a day, even if I’m not struck dead, I will definitely be burned to death.*

"You can only try to obscure the Heavenly Mechanism, shrouding your past and future in mist, so that the thunderbolt cannot strike from that level and you remain unharmed.

"Also, it’s uncertain whether peering into your Heavenly Mechanism will cause burning," Chu Meng said, troubled. "This Eye of Heavenly Punishment is even more troublesome than expected.

"We need to catch a Heavenly Girl to question quickly."

Gu An felt quite helpless too, *who would have thought that in such a small place like the Cangmu Sect, one would encounter such a Sealing Artifact.*

*Clearly people from other places, yet they come to the East Dao Ancient State to create trouble for me.*

*Indeed, one shouldn’t easily make enemies with others.*

*Who knows what these people carry with them?*

Sighing, Gu An could only first observe his surroundings.

At this time, another group of people arrived in front of the Jiuyou Mansion.

Many people here were quite dissatisfied with Gu An, but due to the enormous cultivation gap, they dared not voice their anger.

But they were all waiting for the people inside to come out.

After all, so many had gone inside.

Only a few would gain the opportunity.

So, Zuo Youyan, who had gathered so many Spirit Stones outside, was everyone’s target.

After all, such a large number of Spirit Stones was considered an opportunity for most.

"Who set up this Barrier here?" One of the five people who just arrived questioned aloud.

A terrifying Qi surged forth.

Gu An furrowed his brow.

*What...*

*About to reach Returning to Void Perfection?*

*But currently still in the Late Stage Returning to Void.*

"It’s him." Chu Meng suddenly looked over and said,

"Leave him alive."

Gu An: "...."

*Senior, do you realize what you’re saying?*

*I am only in the Late Stage, while he is about to reach Perfection.*

*Isn’t leaving him alive too difficult?*

*Moreover, there are five of them.*

*That makes it even more difficult.*

"Who exactly is it? Is there no one with the courage to step forward?" Hearing this, the other party sneered and said, "If you lack the ability, don’t engage in such acts in the future.

Open it yourself, or else don’t blame me for not showing mercy."

Gu An lowered his eyes, not thinking much.

A flash of Golden Light appeared.

Then the Golden Light spread out.

Clang!

A long knife was drawn.

In the blink of an eye, Gu An’s blade had reached the man.

The man looked to be about thirty-five years old.

He exuded pure Blood Qi, likely the Blood Transformation Method.

All four people behind him were the same.

However, this Blood Qi was somewhat different from that of the Blood Demon Divine Monarch.

As for why, it was unknown.

*Now facing him, it was best to act first.*

The blade suddenly appeared before the opponent.

Facing Gu An’s slash, the man sneered, "Where did this country bumpkin cultivator come from? At such a time, still using a close-range blade?

Such close distance, aren’t you afraid of coming and not returning yourself?"

Instantly, Blood Qi burst forth, then attracted Gu An’s Blood Qi.

At the same time, a Blood Sea emerged from the surrounding land, enveloping the people within.

Not just that, a crimson Shield appeared before him.

Boom!

The Shield directly blocked the swift strike.

The man immediately stepped back.

After putting some distance, a giant Blood Hand began to suppress, "Surprising that the first strike didn’t stir your Qi-Blood, but within my Blood Sea, let’s see how stubborn your blood can be.

Country bumpkin cultivators, they simply don’t understand the true essence of cultivation."

Clang!

A sudden, crisp sound of a blade being drawn came from behind the man.

He didn’t even have time to react.

Thump!

A red knife pierced through from behind, appearing before the man.

He found it unbelievable; how could it be!

*He couldn’t possibly escape his Blood Sea, and also, where is his Shield?*

Clatter!

The Shield shattered into pieces.

*Yet, before the knife fell, it had already pierced him.*

"Leave him alive," came an anxious voice from the other side.

As the man was about to retaliate, suddenly a gust of wind attacked.

Whoosh!

Another long knife appeared at his neck.

The skin was grazed by the blade, and a mark appeared on the neck.

This knife suddenly stopped; if it were to slash through.

The man would have been decapitated on the spot.

In an instant, Gu An held the knife in his hand, almost unable to stop.

"Sorry, old habits die hard; I almost killed you," Gu An said, looking at the man in front of him, "By the way, what is the true essence of cultivation?"

The man: "...."

He looked at the person in front of him, filled with fear, unable to understand how the other party could ignore his Blood Sea.

Moreover...

*Why was his knife speed so fast?*

*And why did it have such power?*

*It felt like all his defenses were powerless before it.*

*Even his body was enduring excruciating pain.*

*There was something wrong with his knife.*

*Or his power was abnormal.*

*For a moment, he dared not make any reckless moves.*

"Can I withdraw the knife?" Gu An asked as he pointed to the knife in the man’s body after retracting his own blade.

The other party: "...."

The four people who came along were somewhat shocked and didn’t dare act recklessly.

Others watched with wide eyes, unable to comprehend how the fight broke out so suddenly.

*Does this Zuo Youyan have some mental ailment?*

*Unable to tolerate a few mocking words?*

Chu Meng approached Gu An and said, "If not for my mercy, you would have killed someone."

She then looked at the man and said, "Am I your savior?"

The man looked at Chu Meng and coldly said, "Foundation Establishment? What are you?"

Chu Meng: "...."

She turned to Gu An.

Gu An looked at her.

Big eyes staring into little ones.

Finally, Gu An came to an understanding.

He took out two knives and stabbed them in again.

Thump!

"Answer what she asks," Gu An calmly said.

"Understand?" Chu Meng asked the man.

The latter: "...."

"I heard that a few months ago, the Blood Demon Hall found a strange corpse, but an Immortal first obtained a vial of blood from him.

A group of people intercepted her and robbed her of her blood.

Of course, they didn’t spare her and killed her.

Among them, one man murdered the others to claim everything for himself.

Few people knew that this man obtained a bottle of special blood," Chu Meng looked at the man in front of her, "Was that man you?"

"It wasn’t me." The other party immediately shook his head, "I haven’t even heard of such a thing."

"Oh really?" Chu Meng took out a talisman and directly stuck it on the man.

In an instant, the talisman burned, and subsequently, a blood-red bottle detached from the man.

Chu Meng took the bottle and smiled, "Then no, it wasn’t you—so this is now mine."

The other party was stunned for a moment, then his eyes burned with rage, "Return it, that’s what I killed so many people to obtain, what right do you have to just take it?"

Saying this, he was about to make a move.

Chu Meng took a step back and said calmly, "Our people obtained this first, and you killed her; now, I am merely retrieving it.

Moreover, do you know who wants to kill you?"

So, the man instinctively glanced at Gu An.

At this look, he was stunned, then sneered, "Zuo Youyan? I see now, why you acted so decisively. I might fear others, but not you, I will drag you down with me even in death.

Killing you will be like slaughtering a dog."

Saying this, he twisted his body, about to make a move.

However, Gu An coldly looked at him and then suddenly grabbed the man’s neck with one hand.

Then with a strong squeeze.

Thump!

The man fell to the ground without even announcing his name.

On the other side.

After Zhao Qingshan and the others opened the box and saw the tower, a gust of wind blew by.

The originally intact Small Tower suddenly emitted cracking sounds.

It started to resemble something being consumed by flames.

Countless cracks appeared.

It seemed as if it could crumble into ash at any moment.

This bizarre change surprised Zhao Qingshan and the others.

They immediately closed the box.

And pretended they hadn’t seen a thing.
