Chou Zeming swerved his shoulders at the most critical moment, shifting his vital point away from the sword. The golden light flickered. Blood sprayed into the sky, followed by a pathetic cry. A severed arm was flung into the air.
Chou Zeming reached toward his arm in agony. Although he had avoided a fatal blow, he had done so at the price of his right arm.
But at that moment, a golden glow assaulted him, piercing the arm. It landed in Su Yu's palms after rotating in the air. The blood red dagger was still tightly latched within the palm of Chou Zeming's severed arm. Su Yu had just discarded the Golden Scale Dagger. This blood-red dagger came at a convenient time.
Su Yu attempted to pry the dagger out of the palm, but to this surprise, the arm was still under the control of Chou Zeming, even though it was severed! His fingers gripped tightly on the blood red dagger. A great amount of black demon energy welled out from the arm, forming multiple black arrows that shot toward Su Yu at close range. Su Yu had no way to avoid the attack!
"Do you think it's so easy to grab an item from the demon clan?" Chou Zeming let out an angry roar, glared at Su Yu with a look of fury. "Die!"
The arrows sailed through the air, aimed directly at Su Yu's face. But Su Yu was collected, entirely unsurprised.
"Is that so?" he said.
Su Yu opened his mouth and shot out a crimson flame. The demon energy was instantly scattered, and Chou Zeming's arm was also quickly enveloped in flame.
The flames incinerated the sleeve but left the arm unharmed. This arm was unusually powerful. However, as it was being roasted, the arm involuntarily relaxed its grip, dropping the blood-red dagger. Su Yu caught it in his outstretched hand.
Chou Zeming was as furious as he was surprised. "You!" He had not only lost his arm but also the treasure he was most proud of! That was a high-grade divine artifact!
Su Yu stored the blood-red dagger, his eyes filled with an icy cold glow. "What?" he said. "You have tried to kill me time and time again. Did you ever consider that this might happen to you?"
Chou Zeming froze. "Two times? Humph! Counting the last incident, I have only met you twice! How can you say time and time again?"
Su Yu laughed. "You changed me over 100,000 miles back at the Thunder Emperor Mountain. Have you forgotten that already?"
Thunder Emperor Mountain? Chou Zeming was confused. A thought suddenly flashed through his brain. He stared at Su Yu. "The person who saved the Death Phoenix Constitution… was you?"
Death Phoenix Constitution… thought Su Yu. That means he was targeting Xianer!
Su Yu had a cold expression. "It's good that you know. Now, you can die in peace!"
A strange grey flame danced deep in his eyes, making his handsome face even more ice cold and mysterious. These grey flames were the void raging flames he had forcefully taken from the White Eyed Fire Glass Frog, specially used to destroy souls! Even though a good portion of them had been suppressed by the Nine Dragon Cauldron and were unable to be utilized, Su Yu could forcefully use a small portion of them. It was enough, at least, to destroy Chou Zeming's soul!
Chou Zeming felt a burning pain in his soul when he looked into Su Yu's eyes. It felt as if his soul had been ignited. His heart shook. His contorted expression of fury was quickly replaced with caution.
Something about those raging flames made him uneasy.
"Wait!" Chou Zeming attempted to speak, simultaneously taking out an ancient ring from his robes.
Light circulated within the ring, releasing a horrifying aura above the level of Fairy Realm. It was energy equal to a mid-stage Fairy Realm!
"This is a ring I paid a high price for before I entered the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion," he said hastily. "It harbors an attack from a mid-stage Fairy Realm. Your Dry Cloud Five Elemental Formation's defensive capabilities are alarming, but it's fairly limited if you only inject your spirit energy. It might not be able to withstand a blow from this ring."
Su Yu studied the ring. The dancing flames in his eyes slowly died down. The attack from that ring would, indeed, break past the Dry Cloud Five Elemental Formation and threaten his life. Even though he felt confident dealing with this person head-on now, he would have to pay a heavy price, too.
The Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion was going to close soon, and the activities at the later stages would be even more dangerous. If he was injured now, he might not make it to the end.
Seeing Su Yu retract his void raging flames, Chou Zeming secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He put away his ancient ring. If he activated it, he would definitely be transported out of the Divine Pavilion.
Su Yu scanned the ring in Chou Zeming's robes with his Soul Eyes. His eyes flashed.
Chou Zeming carefully took a few steps back. "The animosity between us is not to the stage of life and death. Why go all-out in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace? We can fight all we want in the outside world. How about that?"
Su Yu silently nodded. "All right!"
Surveying his surroundings, Su Yu noticed that the space was not large, only thirty feet all around. There were many indentations etched on the side of the stone walls. Within them were several bottles and vases.
"There are many elixirs here. How about we split them evenly?" Chou Zeming suggested. "Other than the legacy of elixirs, there are still Four Great Legacies. I do not think that we need to fight over who gets what here."
Prior to this, Chou Zeming had wanted to kill Su Yu and snatch his Eternal Stone King Armor in front of everyone. Su Yu resisted the temptation to shake his head in disgust. It looked like power truly was everything in this world.
Only when my abilities are powerful enough to unnerve my opponent are they willing to negotiate, thought Su Yu. The weak have no right to speak!
Su Yu walked to the other stone wall, observing the containers there. After observing them, Su Yu was a little disappointed. Even though these bottles were well maintained, the elixirs within them had suffered from the passage of time. Above 90 percent of the elixirs had been reduced to dust.
But at that moment, Su Yu noticed a green bottle. It was not the most eye-catching jade bottle. Its surface was coated with dust, but the glow released by the bright green elixir within was unobstructed by the bottle. He grabbed the jade bottle in his palm and opened it up. An odd fragrance assaulted his nose, turning into a bright green spiral of air! With every second, the entire secret chamber became more and more fragrant.
Taking a tiny breath, Su Yu was shocked to notice that a vibration came from his dantian. A weak spiral of spirit energy was forming the outline of a crystal.
"The third spirit energy crystal?" he said under his breath.
Su Yu was astounded. It seemed as though his spiritual energy was about to give birth to the third spirit energy crystal and allow Su Yu to break through to the level of Half Fairy! What elixir was this?
Looking down, he saw that the bright green elixir rested silently within the jade bottle. It was green all around, as it had just been freshly cultivated. If he had not seen it personally, it would have been hard for him to believe that this was an elixir that had survived the passage of centuries.
"Fairy Elixir?" said a surprised voice from behind Su Yu.
Su Yu turned. Chou Zeming was staring at the jade bottle in his palm with a passion burning in his eyes. His hand slowly reached into his robes, once again grabbing that ancient ring. It looked like he was ready for an all-out battle for the elixir. What kind of elixir was it, for Chou Zeming to be willing to risk so much for it?
"You are called Yin Yu, am I right?" he said. "Yin Yu… Can you give the Fairy Elixir to me? If you are willing to, I can give you a legendary-level technique."
Su Yu raised his brows. This elixir was worth a legendary-level technique…?
