Chapter 187 Betrayal, All Caught in One Fall!
As Xiao Bieli finished speaking, the waves surging in all directions instantly shattered.
Everyone heard Xiao Bieli's words.
Furthermore, Xiao Bieli was now standing on the reef, and apart from his clothes being somewhat disheveled, he showed no signs of injury whatsoever.
Obviously,
This time, Bai Tianxun, the Mad Saber of the East Sea, was defeated!
"He's lost! Senior Bai has lost!"
"Damn it, is the martial arts world of the East Sea really inferior to that of the Central Plains?"
"Although I am unwilling to admit it, I have to admit that Xiao Bieli is only considered a young generation in the Central Plains martial arts world. Even Senior Bai, who is the most skilled in martial arts in the East Sea martial arts world and is like an immortal, is no match for him!"
"Alas... from this day forward, the martial arts world of the East Sea..."
"..."
Around Devil's Reef, countless experts who came to watch this earth-shattering battle were all dejected.
Although Xiao Bieli, the Demon Blade, has been gaining momentum lately, they still believe that Bai Tianxun has a better chance of winning, which is why they came to see how this master from the Central Plains would be defeated.
But then, reality dealt them a heavy blow.
Bai Tianxun was actually defeated!
This also proves that no one in the martial arts world of the East China Sea can stop Xiao Bieli!
"That's how we won?"
Feng Si Niang looked at Xiao Bieli's figure and murmured to herself.
She couldn't see the two men's movements clearly during the fight, but only about an incense stick's time had passed.
Standing not far from Feng Si Niang, Guan Xuanyun smiled faintly:
"By day, Xun can apply the power of thunder to his swordsmanship, and his strength has surpassed that of ninety percent of the first-rank masters in the Central Plains martial arts world."
"Even a master like your father, Feng You, would find it difficult to withstand a single blow from him!"
Feng Si Niang looked at Guan Xuan Yun and said with dissatisfaction:
"how about you?"
Guan Xuanyun's smile froze for a moment before he finally spoke:
"It won't even withstand one strike!"
……
"You... took that step?"
Bai Tianxun looked at Xiao Bieli with burning eyes, showing no sense of defeat at Xiao Bieli's hands.
As the number one swordsman in the East China Sea martial arts world, he entered the fourth realm of swordsmanship at the age of sixty. However, even now, he is still stuck in the fourth realm. Although he has gone far in the fourth realm, he is still far from touching the bottleneck of the fourth realm.
But just now,
He sensed from Xiao Bieli's sword strike that Xiao Bieli's swordsmanship was far superior to his own, and was very likely already at the fifth level, above the fourth level of swordsmanship!
Moreover, just now, within five zhang of Xiao Bieli, it seemed to be a space of its own.
Those watching were stunned when they heard what Bai Tianxun said.
They didn't understand what Bai Tianxun meant.
Even those top-tier experts frowned slightly.
"Could it be that Xiao Bieli has already survived six tribulations?" Mei Yuansheng murmured.
Fisherman Yu Zhong nodded:
"It's very likely. Brother Bai is an expert who has survived five tribulations. Since he said so, then it must be him!"
……
Xiao Bieli did not answer Bai Tianxun's question, but simply said:
"Give me your swordsmanship!"
Although Bai Tianxun's martial arts skills are inferior to his, Bai Tianxun's swordsmanship has many merits. If one can thoroughly understand it, it may also be helpful to his swordsmanship.
If he hadn't used his sword and had instead taken that final blow with his bare body, he would likely have suffered a cut.
Bai Tianxun didn't hesitate at all and said directly:
"can!"
"I'll copy it down for you in a bit!"
"What do you intend to do with me...?"
At that moment, Bai Tianxun's expression changed.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, turning his already pale face even whiter.
He raised his palm; one arm was already completely blackened.
puff!
puff!
puff!
Mei Yuansheng, Yu Zhong, "Chess Saint" Feng Ping, Guan Xuanyun, and Donghai Suoyi Ke, several top-ranked masters, almost simultaneously coughed up a mouthful of black blood and swayed precariously.
Feng Ping looked at Zhu Yu, the 'Poisonous Lady' standing right beside him, and said in a deep voice:
"Is it your fault?"
Several of the first-rank officials present were injured, except for "Divine Poison Lady" Zhu Yu and "Mighty Vajra" Peng Jing, who were unharmed.
Moreover, Zhu Yu was the most skilled poison user in the martial arts world of the East China Sea.
Even a top-tier expert could easily fall into Zhu Yu's trap if they became her enemy.
"Seven Deadly Powder?"
Guan Xuanyun looked at his left arm, his face grim.
What is the Seven Deadly Powder?
Upon hearing Guan Xuanyun's words, Mei Yuansheng immediately spoke up.
In just a short while, the poison had already attacked his heart. He could only barely protect his heart meridian. If he used his true energy, he would surely die!
"Hehehe!" 'Divine Poison Lady' Zhu Yu covered her mouth and chuckled:
"Seven Deadly Powder!"
"That's a secret medicine passed down by the Zhou family; it's colorless and odorless, and specifically designed to counter powerful experts."
"The more powerful a person is, the faster the symptoms will appear once they use their true energy, once they become tainted by it."
"Originally, you would have been fine if you hadn't used your true energy, but the commotion from Xiao Bieli and Bai Tianxun's fight was too great. You had to step in to protect the people on the ship, so you used your true energy. Naturally, the Seven Deadly Powder would enter your bodies as you mobilized your true energy!"
"Don't use your inner energy anymore, or you'll die!"
Guan Xuanyun shook his head and said:
"There is no antidote for the Seven Deadly Powders. If you don't use your inner energy, you'll be fine after an hour."
"Once you use your true energy, the poison will invade your internal organs, and even a god couldn't save you. You were just stabilizing the ship and dealing with the aftershocks of their fight; you didn't use your full strength, so the poisoning isn't too severe. But if you had used your full strength again, then it would truly have been beyond saving!"
"The Imperial Observatory also has the prescription for the Seven Deadly Powder, but the rare medicinal materials used to make it have long been lost. I never expected that the remnants of the Great Zhou Dynasty would go overseas and actually manage to refine the Seven Deadly Powder!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Si Niang, Zhuo Mu'er, and the others' expressions all changed.
Although they didn't use their true energy just now, since a first-grade expert can't make a move, even if 'Divine Poison Lady' was hit, she must have already made arrangements, and there must be others nearby who haven't been hit yet.
Mei Yuansheng looked at the Poisonous Lady and shouted:
"Zhu Yu, what do you mean by this?"
"You've sided with the Zhou family?"
The Poisonous Lady smiled:
"Brother Mei, I have no other choice!"
"In another twenty years, my second tribulation will arrive. I have no confidence that I can survive it, but the Zhou family promised to give me a Snow Lotus Tribulation Pill, so I have no choice."
"You can't expect me to risk my life for the survival of the martial arts world in the East Sea, can you?"
Snow Lotus Crossing the Calamity Pill?
The several first-rank experts were all taken aback, only Guan Xuanyun spoke up:
"The Zhou family certainly has a generous hand in the Snow Lotus Crossing-the-Calamity Pill."
"The Snow Lotus Tribulation-Crossing Pill requires the essence blood of exotic beasts to be refined with a ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus. It can revive the dead and restore the bones. Taking it during a tribulation is equivalent to having a second life!"
"..."
Feng Si Niang quickly said:
"Don't say that!"
"Isn't your Imperial Observatory's star-divination technique quite impressive?"
"Instead of wasting your time, you should calculate whether we'll die here today."
Oh oh oh!
Just then, a bugle call sounded.
Whoosh whoosh!
Several large ships broke through the waves and came in.
The Zhou family patriarch, his face wrinkled, stood at the bow of the boat, a broad smile on his face. He looked at Bai Tianxun and said calmly:
"We really can't gather all the ingredients needed to refine the Seven Deadly Powders!"
"However, my Zhou family still has some."
“Once the Seven Deadly Powder is used, everyone within a radius of several miles will be affected. With your keen intuition, a master like you would definitely not be able to defeat you if it were used rashly.”
"But if I use the Seven Deadly Powder when I fight you, I will be the one who gets hit."
"If it weren't for you, our Zhou family would have unified the martial arts world of the East Sea many years ago."
"Now it's all good, the Demon Blade Xiao Bieli has arrived. He's strong enough that you can't afford to be distracted, and I don't even need to use my true energy!"
"This is the best time to use the Seven Deadly Powders."
"Today, it's the perfect day to wipe out all of you ignorant fools!"
