Chapter 500: Assassination! Fifteenth Stage!!! (Part 1)

"Big Sigh?"

The woman blinked her eyes, "Oh, right, I'm not sighing much."

"But I am indeed interested in your Black Hole Domain. It's a form of Absolute Defense, and if I can learn it and combine it with my little tower, hmm, who can stop me?"

Wang Teng frowned, "Miss, we've never met before."

"I don't even know your name. Why do you think I would pass on my life's foundation to you?"

"We can exchange!" She emphasized, "I also have the Invincible Technique."

"And not just one."

"As for names..."

"I'm called Heavenly Maiden."

She smiled radiantly.

Heavenly... Heavenly Maiden?!

Wow! Wang Teng was startled. Is she serious about this name?

Who would dare to have such a name?

Aren't they afraid of provoking the heavens?

Superstition?

This isn't superstition. Cultivators understand and believe in these things even more, and everyone knows about the existence of the Heavenly Dao. Naturally, they would be more cautious about such chaotic and messy matters.

But this woman, no, this demoness, dares to call herself the Heavenly Maiden?

Combined with the fact that she possesses a magical artifact refined from the corpse of the World Beast...

"This woman's identity is definitely not simple!"

He slightly furrowed his brows.

Since her identity is not simple and her background is likely intimidating, he can't just brush her off or force her to leave.

Otherwise, the problem might become huge.

Right now, whether it's him or the Moon Embrace Sect, they are both in a developmental stage, and they can't afford to create another powerful enemy out of thin air.

This...

It's really a headache.

"It's useless to tell me your name. These techniques of mine are very special, and in the entire Three Thousand Continents, there are probably only two people who know them."

"Even if I teach you, you won't be able to learn them."

"Moreover..."

"These techniques were created by my master. Without his permission, I can't pass them on to others."

"After all, we've only met by chance, and you want me to pass on the secret techniques of my lineage to you?"

"It's a bit too much to ask."

At this moment, Wang Teng could only try to reason with her and see if she was a reasonable 'demon'.

If she is reasonable, then everything can be discussed.

But if she doesn't understand reason...

Then he'll have to think of other ways.

"That does make sense."

The Heavenly Maiden pondered, "If these Invincible Techniques were created by your master, you indeed can't make the decision. How about this, you introduce me to your master?"

"You can't make the decision, but he certainly can."

"..."

Wang Teng frowned.

Find his master?

This...

He couldn't refuse this request easily.

She came with politeness, didn't cause trouble, and didn't show any intention of forcing him. If he doesn't give her face and directly refuses, it might be inappropriate.

But if he contacts his master...

This Black Hole Domain wasn't created by his master; it was something he slowly figured out under his master's guidance.

What if his master reveals the truth? He scratched his head.

"Is there something inconvenient?" The Heavenly Maiden asked, then added, "Don't misunderstand me. I don't mean any harm. I just want to be friends with you and exchange insights on Absolute Defense Techniques."

"If you don't believe me, I can make a Dao Heart Vow. What do you think?"

Wang Teng looked at her without saying a word, and his meaning was clear.

Go ahead and make the vow.

The Heavenly Maiden was also carefree. After understanding Wang Teng's intention, she smiled slightly, "I, the Heavenly Maiden, vow upon my Dao Heart, that I, the Heavenly Maiden, have absolutely no ill intentions towards Wang Teng and his master. I only wish to exchange insights on Absolute Defense to improve myself. That's all."

"If there is any falsehood in my words, may my Dao Heart collapse, my cultivation go astray, and my physical body and spirit be destroyed!"

"Fellow Daoist Wang Teng."

"Can you believe me now?"

Only then did Wang Teng slowly nod.

Dao Heart...

The Dao Heart Vow is different from the Heavenly Dao Vow.

When one breaks the Heavenly Dao Vow, there will be Heavenly punishment.

But the Dao Heart...

For any cultivator, the Dao Heart is of utmost importance. Once it collapses, the consequences range from a regression in cultivation to becoming an ordinary mortal, or even instant death.

So, the credibility is quite high.

"Since that's the case..."

"Follow me first."

"We can discuss the rest later."

Since she had no ill intentions, Wang Teng didn't need to reject her so harshly.

Moreover, this wasn't a suitable place to stay, so it's better to leave quickly to avoid attracting the attention of the Heaven Cleaving Sect. That would be troublesome.

But...

With the Heavenly Maiden accompanying him, it might be safer.

It's not about using her as a shield, letting her fight with the Heaven Cleaving Sect.

If the Heaven Cleaving Sect doesn't know 'I Love Luo's' true identity, then with the Heavenly Maiden by his side, they will likely 'miss' him.

"Okay, let's go."

The Heavenly Maiden immediately showed a smile.

"Even if we can't exchange techniques, there's no harm in chatting, right?"

"How did you come up with the idea of cultivating such an Invincible Technique?"

"You should know that out of a hundred cultivators, ninety-nine would focus on offensive secret techniques, and very few would choose to cultivate defensive Invincible Techniques."

"Unless..."

"You're like me, too afraid of pain, so you mainly cultivate defensive Invincible Techniques, only seeking a life without pain or injury?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng was slightly stunned.

He blinked in confusion.

What does it mean to be too afraid of pain and focus on defensive Invincible Techniques?

And what does it mean to seek a life without pain or injury? No way.

Sister, you're a cultivator!

No, a 'Demon Cultivator'!

A demon, and you seek a life without injury or pain? How do you think?

If this gets out, no one would believe it.

But then again, for a demon to strive for a life without injury or pain... should I say you have high aspirations, or are you crazy?

"Pretty..."

"Pretty good," Wang Teng managed to say after a long pause.

The Heavenly Maiden smiled, "I think so too. Since I started cultivating this way, humph, in all these years, I've only been injured twice."

"One of those times was because of that Luo guy being too infuriating and bizarre!"

Wang Teng: "..."

"Hey, wait, wasn't I the one asking you?"

The Heavenly Maiden changed the topic, "You're also like me, too afraid of pain, so you mainly cultivate invincibility techniques for defense, right?"

At this moment, she stared at Wang Teng, her big watery eyes blinking in anticipation.

In his heart, a surge of excitement rose for no apparent reason.

See?

I'm not alone on this path!

I'm not alone!!!

Let them say my path is crooked, let them say I have issues...

Look!

Who says I have issues?

It's just that you lack experience.

I'm not the only one on this road.

I have a 'fellow cultivator'!

Wang Teng had wanted to say that he only felt too fragile and couldn't unleash the true power of an Elemental Master, so he wanted to improve the Black Hole Fist.

But when he saw the Heavenly Maiden's eager and excited expression, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

He could only respond vaguely, "Well..."

"You're right."

"I knew it!"

Slap! The Heavenly Maiden smacked her thigh.

But... she smacked Wang Teng's thigh.

As a Demon cultivator, her strength wasn't weak.

This slap caused Wang Teng's thigh to tingle, making him grit his teeth in pain, "Ouch!!!"

He wanted to curse.

Damn.

We just met!

And you're already getting physical?

Also, you're slapping my thigh, why slap me? Are you crazy?

Can you have some boundaries?

"Why are you slapping me?" he couldn't help but ask.

The Heavenly Maiden put on a pitiful expression, "I'm afraid of pain, so I slapped my own thigh. It's my own pain, right?"

Wang Teng: "(⊙_⊙) ..."

Oh...

She made so much sense, he was speechless.

But...

Just because you're afraid of pain, doesn't mean I'm not.

"Ouch!!!" Wang Teng let out a cold breath.

"Sorry," the Heavenly Maiden stuck out her tongue and said with a wry smile, "I forgot you're a fellow cultivator and also afraid of pain. Next time, I won't slap you."

"You're thinking of a next time???"

Wang Teng was about to explode...

As the saying goes, Sigma men never fall into women's traps, and women only slow down their sword-drawing speed!

But at this moment, his expression changed slightly.

I Ai Luo was under attack!

Several masked people launched a simultaneous assault from all directions, and an array's light shone in the surroundings...

"Not good!"

Wang Teng's expression changed drastically. He immediately left the Heavenly Maiden and rushed over.

"Where are you going?"

The Heavenly Maiden was startled.

Her expression also changed.

"Fellow cultivator, be careful!"

She immediately took out her 'Demon Tower' and followed closely behind him.

...

He Anxia's face turned cold, and he thought, "As expected, they've come."

"However, hiding their heads and showing their tails, I'm not sure if they're from the Heaven Cleaving Sect."

"But..."

"If you want to ambush me, you're not qualified."

Ambush?

He had already discovered their presence!

As a Biological Master, controlling countless microorganisms, if he couldn't spread them out, surround himself, and use them to detect the road ahead, then this Biological Master would be too stupid.

He Anxia wasn't that stupid.

He had been vigilant all along.

Along the way, he spread the microorganisms very far, almost to his limit!

Under his control, these microorganisms didn't receive an 'attack command', they just indiscriminately attacked.

But it still allowed him to detect these people in advance.

So...

He wasn't alarmed.

The reason he hadn't exposed himself or changed direction was that he didn't want to reveal his ability, and he wasn't sure if they were truly targeting him.

But now, everything was clear.

Then...

Why wait any longer?

Slap! A snap of his fingers.

All the microorganisms received the 'command' and launched a full-scale attack!

Without the masked people's awareness, their bodies were already filled with various microorganisms, which erupted at this moment.

Everyone trembled, but they weren't instantly killed.

However, their states were affected, either attacking half a beat slower or directly losing control and hitting the wrong target.

At this moment, Wang Teng rushed to He Anxia's side, and his Black Hole Domain opened. Simultaneously, he grabbed He Anxia's shoulder, transferring a portion of the 'dark light' from his body, enveloping both of them.

Boom!!!

Various sword lights, tribulation lights, Dao rules, and secret patterns erupted from the array.

But under the Black Hole Domain, most of them were devoured.

However...

Wang Teng's realm was ultimately lower, and although the Black Hole Domain was powerful, it was almost shattered in an instant.

Wang Teng trembled, glared fiercely, and clenched his teeth as he punched.

"Black Hole Fist!!!"

Boom! He punched continuously, his technique rough, resembling the common 'Rolling Stone Fist' in the Immortal Martial Continent.

But as he unleashed nine consecutive punches, nine black holes appeared, absorbing the attacks from all directions.

"Be careful!"

The Heavenly Maiden also arrived at this moment. The Demon Tower on her head shed demonic lights, covering all three of them. For a moment, the three seemed like a dream, and no one could see them clearly.

With this, the surrounding attacks couldn't harm them during this brief moment.

"Who is this person?"

Her expression turned grim.

Wang Teng furrowed his brows, "I don't know."

He Anxia looked at her, "Thank you, Miss."

"Her name is Heavenly Maiden," Wang Teng introduced.

He Anxia's eyes widened in surprise, "????"

"He Anxia," Wang Teng turned to the Heavenly Maiden and introduced, "My junior brother."

"So, it's Brother He," the Heavenly Maiden slightly cupped her fists and said. She wasn't particularly impressed with He Anxia and continued, "I observe that you don't seem to have much research in the way of defense."

"You like this..."

"It's easy to die."

He Anxia's mouth twitched.

Wang Teng: "..."

"Don't take it to heart, she's a demon cultivator, and her thinking is different from us human cultivators."

"I understand, I understand," He Anxia wiped away his cold sweat.

At this moment, he wasn't too anxious.

The microbial swarm had already begun its attack, and those who were surrounding and attacking were mostly Twelfth Stage cultivators, with only one or two Thirteenth Stage cultivators.

As long as the microbes were given time, these cultivators would soon perish.

The problem was the Thirteenth Stage cultivator who was difficult to deal with, and there was also the array...

But most importantly, they didn't know if these people were really from the Heaven Splitting Sect. If they were, then behind them, there might be Fourteenth Stage Late Stage or even Fifteenth Stage cultivators lying in wait.

That would be a real problem.

"Damn it, the intelligence was wrong!"

The black-clothed people with their hoods and face masks all had array patterns that could conceal their aura and divine soul fluctuations, making it impossible to discern their true identities.

At this moment, they were all enraged because they hadn't been able to kill with a single strike.

"Why is this demoness with him, and why is she helping him?"

"So troublesome!"

"And for some reason, I feel uneasy, as if... as if... I was still a mortal, and my family was poor, and I hadn't eaten meat in a long time, and I felt anxious and short of breath!"

"Hmm? Why do I feel the same way?"

"I don't, but just now, I actually missed my target. This..."

"Shut up!"

"Let's first think of a way to break this demon tower and kill that kid..."

The leader of the Thirteenth Stage cultivators frowned slightly, "With our strength, breaking this demon tower is a bit of a challenge."

"We can only rely on the array."

"Then let's activate the array!"

As they discussed and were about to activate the array together, the result was...

Boom, boom, boom...

All around them.

The array they had set up suddenly collapsed one after another, and even the array eyes exploded one by one. There were so many arrays! But in the blink of an eye, not a single one was left...

Only the smoke and dust remained.

"What?!"

"No, what happened?!"

"Why did the array fail?!"

"Damn it, my magical artifact! Why did you use my magical artifact as the array eye? Pfft!!!"

"..."

They were shocked, cursing, and some were coughing up blood.

This was because he had used his own magical artifact as the array eye for the array, and now that the array eye had exploded, it had affected him, causing him to be backlashed.

"Who is it?!!!"

"Who dared to make a secret move?!"

The leader cursed angrily.

His voice shook the four directions, wanting to find the person.

However...

No one responded.

The surroundings were silent.

It was as if everything was a natural phenomenon.

But... how could this be a natural phenomenon?

Nonsense!

"Who is it?!!!"

"Quickly reveal yourself, or you'll be executed without mercy!"

They were furious.

But still, no one responded.

Instead, He Anxia and Wang Teng, who were inside the demon tower, exchanged a glance and both slightly relaxed.

It seemed like...

Second Senior Brother was also here.

Even if he wasn't here in person, there was at least one, or even a group of scarecrows secretly following them, which made them feel a little more at ease.

After all, for someone to be able to blow up all their array eyes in such a short time and render all their carefully planned arrays useless...

Who else could it be besides Second Senior Brother?

"Since you want to kill me, then... I won't hide anymore."

"Show your hand!"

He Anxia guessed that the timing was about right, and to prevent them from finding Fan Jian Gang, he coldly snorted and took out the 'Mystic Gourd': "Not bad, I am indeed He Anxia."

"You... came for me, and you couldn't kill me with one blow. What do you think will happen next?..."

His expression gradually turned cold, and killing intent burst forth, "You should have already expected this, right? You should have been prepared for it?"

"After all, since you dare to do things for the Heaven Splitting Sect, you should be prepared to die."

"Nonsense!!!

They were enraged.

"You're looking for death, kid!"

"We have no idea what you're talking about."

"I don't know who I Love Luo is!"

"Heaven Splitting Sect? Humph, who said we're from the Heaven Splitting Sect?"

They all spoke at once, not admitting it.

But He Anxia was too lazy to argue with them, "Whether you are or not, your words don't count."

Boom!

The gourd exploded, turning into a dazzling cloud of fine sand.

He looked at the Heavenly Maiden, who slightly nodded.

Then, they worked together.

As the fine sand filled the sky and attacked, she retracted the demon tower for a moment.

In that instant, the fine sand surged towards the black-clothed people.

"..."

Their expressions changed, and they all used various defensive methods: "Retreat quickly!"

With a low shout, everyone retreated.

But He Anxia laughed.

"And you said you didn't know who I Love Luo was..."

"Then why do you avoid this ordinary Imperial Armament like it's a snake or scorpion?"

He raised his hand.

Boom!!!

The fine sand exploded.

It directly lifted up all the sand and dust within a radius of ten thousand miles, creating a super sandstorm that enveloped everyone.
