Chapter 199 – Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger
Fortunately, Jin Qiao’er’s Gold Gate Stonehenge Formation was pretty outstanding as well, and even prevented exterior cultivators from probing inside with their divine sense.
Hence, with the two formation arrays clashing, Jin Shenxuan wouldn’t be able to attack them with skill techniques or artifacts for the time being.
Flashes erupted as Wei Suo continued summoning another two divine light screens, before producing a red feather-like artifact.
Wei Suo activated the artifact while pointing it up. Instantly, a red beam shot out followed by a thunderous rumble. Then, over a hundred flaming feathers bolted forth with terrifying might.
Upon being burnt by the flaming feathers, the dense goldish mist and descending gold bricks melted away like popping oil. Yet as those flaming feathers soared upwards for several tens of metres, their flames gradually waned and rapidly extinguished amidst the dense goldish mist.
It appears to be an artifact crafted from the plume of a Phoenix-tail Crow, one that could unleash a horrifying expansive attack, couldn’t threaten this Grandis Gold Formation as well.
Flashes erupted again as Wei Suo immediately activated his Samadhi Divine Flame skill and manipulated it into a white Xiantian True Flame. Under his control, the flame changed into a pointed awl as he employed it to stab upwards repeatedly.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Wei Suo’s Xiantian True Flames were much stronger than the flaming feathers, as it easily cauterized through the raining gold bricks. Alas, it could only stretch out for 6 metres before being pressured to a halt by the heavy golden mist.
This grand hall was as high as 10 metres and with Wei Suo’s current cultivation, it was impossible for his Xiantian True Flames to burn through the ceiling of this formation array.
Even the Divine Six-Suns Firefork wouldn’t suffice to breakthrough the might of this Grandis Gold Formation.
Casting a hideous expression, Wei Suo ceased his Xiantian True Flames. Jin Shenxuan’s chilling voice then drifted in. “This one must be the cultivator that visited in the morning? Seems like Granny Jin has revealed her secrets to you. As long as you divulge them to me, I can spare your life.”
“Granny Jin’s secret?”
Wei Suo smiled bitterly. He had been utterly dragged down into muddled waters by Jin Qiao’er. What did he even know? All his current knowledge was definitely similar to what Jin Qiao’er knew, yet he didn’t believe that Jin Shenxuan would let them off even if Jin Qiao’er spilled the beans.
Wei Suo glanced at the ashen faced Jin Qiao’er and decided to keep quiet; whether she decided to say or not, was up to her. Instead, he produced the ruby globe that contained those Sky-toppling Black Drillworms. Taking aim at a descending gold brick, he hurled the ruby globe at it.
Wei Suo couldn’t think of any other alternatives, but only to try his luck if these metal essence corroding worms could break through the mist of metallic gold.
These were the ruby globes he originally planned to slyly use on others, where he checked on the thickness of the crystal globes daily.
Ge! That ruby ball collided into a the golden brick as strands of cracks instantly emerged. The hundred plus Black Drillworms stuck within immediately strove to chew towards the strands of cracks.
Several breaths later, the first Black Drillworm jetted out with breakneck pace.
Wei Suo’s eyes instantly shone brightly as he observed the dense goldish mist utterly failing to impede the Black Drillworm’s flight. Soon after, more Black Drillworms soared out chaotically as they covered the dense goldish mist.
Without hesitating, Wei Suo quickly retrieved two other ruby globes. He first conjured out his Xiantian True Flames and thawed the two ruby globes a little. Then, he hurled the ruby globes towards a farther area.
Moments later, the Black Drillworms trapped in those ruby globes instantly charged out. Soon, the goldish mist turned visibly thin.
“恩?”
“Mn?”
In that instant, Jin Shenxuan probably sensed an abnormality, and triggered the intensity of his Grandis Gold Formation. The golden mist turned increasingly turbulent and pressured down onto the Black Drillworms; immobilizing them as though they were trapped in lard.
Witnessing this scene, Wei Suo solemnly produced another 5 ruby globes of Black Drillworms.
In total, the 5 ruby globes would minimally unleash a force of 400-500 Black Drillworms and would rapidly thin out the goldish mist again.
“Do you still have more bugs? Hurry, take them out, a bit more and we can break the formation.” At present, noticing the two ruby globes of Black Drillworms falling from mid-air, Jin Qiao’er realized that though the Drillworms could devour metallic essence in mist form, they would also pay with their lives. Having her hopes rekindled, Jin Qiao’er couldn’t help but command Wei Suo.
Instead, Wei Suo ignored her as he raised his head while squinting his eyes to observe seriously.
Until the Black Drillworms of the five ruby globes were almost exhausted, Wei Suo then consecutively activated his Phoenix-tail Blaze Crow’s feather artifact.
An impressive array of blazing feathers soared up with unstoppable momentum, incinerating through all the descending gold bricks. Meanwhile, the remaining haphazardly flying Black Drillworms that didn’t fear fire element attacks were propelled upwards by the blazing feathers. Instantaneously, the goldish mist above Wei Suo became pathetically thin.
Sou!
Wei Suo immediately distanced himself from Jin Qiao’er and activated the Divine Six-Suns Firefork that was already in his hand. This domineering fire element artifact transformed into a golden beam and forcibly penetrated through the gathering goldish mist.
PA! It slapped against the ceiling.
An inch-deep hole was instantly created through fragments of rocks onto the metallic ceiling.
Following Jin Shenxuan’s shocked yet furious gasp, the goldish mist of the entire hall swiftly dispersed.
Though the formation array wasn’t completely ruined, it could no longer hinder Wei Suo.
Wei Suo directly unleashed another round of his Phoenix-tail Blaze Crow artifact, before charging out by tailing a regiment of blazing feathers. A black pit had now burned through the ceiling and eventually, the formation array flickered one last time before utterly fading away.
It was impossible to observe the visual phenomena of the Gold Gate Stonehenge Formation from outside the formation, but with a flick of Jin Qiao’er’s finger, numerous boulders immediately segregated away. Amidst the boulders, one could faintly notice a sinister looking Jin Shenxuan staggering slightly.
He had previously summoned an almond-colored tiny flag that radiated out a lotus gem brilliance. In his hand was a short and black ruler, which was probably the illusory light type, Spirit Class artifact, Falling Dragon Ruler. Now that his formation array was destroyed, he felt threatened and quickly conjured out an artifact shield swirling with cyan aura.
“That old dog’s flag is called the Almond Flag, a low grade Spirit Class artifact. Destroy that artifact for me and I will slay the old dog.” Upon breaking through the formation array, Jin Qiao’er recovered her earlier tone and commanded.
“As long as I can destroy his artifact, you’ll be able to slay him?” In this critical juncture, Wei Suo couldn’t care less about Jin Qiao’er, whose personality was far inferior to Han Weiwei. He impolitely scoffed. “If I’m not wrong, his artifact shield is genuinely a Spirit Class artifact shield.”
“Do you think I will lie to you now?!” Jin Qiao’er fumed. “Succeed or not, it won’t kill to try right.”
“This ugly lass’ words are filled with garbage, I really must give her a good beating!” The Old Man raged out as he roared into Wei Suo’s ears.
Wei Suo smiled coldly but remained silent. He nodded and replied with a “fine”.
Yet in this instant, Jin Shenxuan interrupted, “This brother over there, your methods are rather unique, may I know if you are willing to convert from foe to friend? I don’t know what benefits Granny Jin offered you, but as long as you hand Jin Qiao’er over to me, I will double her benefits.”
“Is that so?” Wei Suo replied. “Granny Jin promised me 200,000 low grade spiritual stones. As long as you can match that with 400,000 low grade spiritual stones, I can consider.”
“YOU!” Jin Qiao’er’s countenance sank immediately as she leapt forward, as though she wanted to act against Wei Suo.
“Why stare foolishly at me, just do it.” Seeing Jin Qiao’er’s hostile state, Wei Suo couldn’t help but disdainfully smirk. She was utterly devoid of any tacit understanding and totally couldn’t compare with Han Weiwei. After snorting, Wei Suo raised his arm and activated the Divine Six-Suns Firefork towards Jin Shenxuan.
“400,000 low grade spiritual stones?” Meanwhile, Jin Shenxuan’s eyes glistened as he appeared to be in contemplation.
Instead, he yelled out the next moment as a scorching golden inferno swarmed out from the Gold Gate Stonehenge Formation towards him. Fortunately, the cover provided by the numerous boulders blocked out the brilliance of Wei Suo’s artifact; otherwise, with the six scorching sun blaze of the Divine Six-Suns Firefork, it would dazzle his eyes.
Sensing the terrifying might of that golden inferno, the astounded Jin Shenxuan didn’t have time to curse but hastily unleashed his true energy; pushing forth the Almond colored flag as far as he could.
Then, a lotus glazed with yellow emerged from nowhere and blocked the attack of the Divine Six-Suns Firefork.
Seconds later, a golden beam punctured through the yellow glazed lotus and stabbed into the almond-colored flag; tearing out two cracks in the process.
Spirit energy leaked out from the almond-colored flag instantly. A low grade Spirit Class artifact was actually destroyed by a single assault from Wei Suo.
“Divine Six-Suns Firefork! You are Old Devil Qin?”
As Jin Shenxuan sighted the outline of the Divine Six-Suns Firefork, he yelled out in disbelief. However, a black ray shot out from Jin Qiao’er and reached him within a split second.
This black ray belonged to the same tiny black dagger she used to murder Zhang Wuya.
“Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger! How is it possible you possess this treasure?!”
The shock he received from noticing this black dagger even eclipsed that of noticing the Divine Six-Suns Firefork.
“Eh?” Wei Suo raised his brow. It seemed as though her tiny black dagger wasn’t that impressive in might, yet when it arrived before Jin Shenxuan, it ejaculated a crimson blood pearl.
Pa! The pearl slapped into Jin Shenxuan’s artifact shield, and like a thin sheet of paper, it drilled a hole through the Spirit Class wind element artifact shield!
Finally, the blood pearl burst forth with unstoppable momentum and impaled Jin Shenxuan’s chest.
