Zuo Shan Yi clenched his eyes tightly on the slowly approaching Ding Huan, he knew his strength was definitely stronger than the man walking together with Qi Xin Yue.
Previously, he was frightened by Ding Huan, for the other party could perceive his hidden cobweb and sever it with a true essence blade aura. That was simply terrifying.
Later, he carefully recalled the situation at that time, and he realized that he had probably imagined too much.
At that time, the true essence blade aura unveiled by the other party was absolutely random, and it unleashed as much as possible without targeting anything.
It's very likely that the other party was scared in their heart, worried that there might be hidden techniques of theirs, so they just unleashed a deluge of true essence blade aura.
In the end, it turned out that blind cats met dead rats, and they actually cut their own hidden web.
Even though he knew that Ding Huan might have guessed it, Zuo Shan Yi still dare not be careless and would not take the risk to confront Ding Huan face to face.
So he hid here, intending to deal Ding Huan a severe blow with one strike.
If it weren't for the fact that Ding Huan had taken away the Heavenly Net, even if he knew he could sneak attack and defeat Ding Huan, he wouldn't have done it. Instead, he would have left first and foremost.
Zuo Shan Yi was able to survive until today, and even reach the level of a divine artist, not because of his high talent, but because he could endure and be patient.
Not to mention dealing with a guy like Ding Huan who is nearly a divine artist, even against a beginner divine artist, he would still resort to ambushing tactics.
No one had ever let him suffer such a huge loss before, and if it weren't for this, he would have waited until his cultivation was higher to seek revenge.
But the Heavenly Net is not. It's his lifeline. This man who is with Qi Xin Yue wants his Heavenly Net and blooming divine crystal stone. Dream on.
As for Qi Xin Yue, he didn't care at all; she was just a beginner divine artist.
As he watched Ding Huan getting closer and closer, Zuo Shan Yi was calculating the distance.
It's time. It's now.
Just as Zuo Shan Yi was about to strike, he felt a wave of death sweeping towards him.
Scared stiff, Zuo Shan Yi's hair stood on end. He dared not continue to ambush Ding Huan and immediately wanted to run away.
But at this moment, that deathly aura had already reached him, and Zuo Shan Yi's divine arts power surged wildly. Immediately after that, he was swaying with the murderous intent.
"Thud!" Ding Huan felt his star knife cut into the other's body, but an eerie sight occurred.
Just then, the scorpion's body, which could bear his knife, was suddenly powerless in the place where the knife entered the body.
It was as if he had slashed a light and fluffy willow catkin with a knife, and after the blade contacted the catkin, it followed the direction of the cut and floated up, then attached itself to the back of the blade, preventing it from being severed.
Ding Huan let out a cold snort, and his divine thoughts surged onto the star knife, causing a burst of blade qi to shoot upwards abruptly.
Crack!
One of Zuo Shan Yi's legs was chopped off by Ding Huan.
Before Ding Huan could act again, the gray shadow swept up the severed leg and vanished instantly, leaving only a pool of blood on the ground.
"Scorpion, remember to clean your neck well, and don't let your Ding Lord see you next time." Ding Huan knew he couldn't catch this little fish, so he added a harsh warning.
Hearing Ding Huan's words, Zuo Shan Yi was even more frantically fleeing.
He felt that this mistake was due to his recklessness and arrogance, and such a low-level mistake, he would never make again.
He had no reason to believe that the other party didn't know that he was hiding in the tree heart. And why did he think that the other party had been guessing before?
From now on, he will not come out to seek revenge against Ding Huan until he reaches the level of a divine artist.
"Did he escape?" Qi Xin Yue asked with a trace of fear in her voice.
Ding Huan nodded, "This time he should dare not come again. He thought I couldn't notice him, so he hid in the tree heart. Fortunately, you taught me divine concealment, allowing me to discover that this guy was hiding on the side. Otherwise, I would have definitely been cheated."
This is not about politeness. Ding Huan was well aware that if it weren't for Qi Xin Yue teaching him the art of divine concealment, he would truly have suffered a loss this time.
Next, his most important task besides improving his cultivation would be how to make his divine thoughts materialized. Only when the divine thoughts were materialized could they be used for divine thought attacks.
Moreover, in the future, without relying on true essence, he could simply rely on divine thoughts to detect all hidden existence around him.
"We should also leave here and find a place to continue cultivating." As he spoke, Ding Huan took out a glass bottle and collected some blood left by the scorpion.
If he had the chance, he would definitely make a deadly gene-poisonous gas specifically for scorpions.
The scorpion was really able to endure, and without preparing a few trump cards, Ding Huan felt uneasy.
If Zuo Shan Yi knew about Ding Huan's thoughts, he might just lose his mind.
"You have already been able to control me, why do you still have to prepare a poisonous gas with gene-poisonous technology? Do you even have a bit of decency?"
"Where are we going?" Qi Xin Yue asked when she saw Ding Huan collecting blood.
"We'll head towards Kunlun Mountains, but along the way, we need to find a quiet place to continue enhancing our abilities."
Ding Huan had twenty blooming divine crystal stones in his hand. He wanted to wait until he reached the level of a nine-level gene cultivator before advancing further.
There are far too many mountains within Africa. After only one day of walking, Ding Huan and Qi Xin Yue found an ideal place for cultivation.
This is a natural cave. After Ding Huan killed some low-level ferocious beasts, the place has become completely quiet.
"Practice here, give you two blooming divine crystal stones. We need to enhance our abilities as soon as possible."
Ding Huan felt that practicing in this place would prevent the scorpion from finding him.
Even if he were to find us, the entrance to the cave is blocked by me. No matter how formidable the scorpion is, he can't sneak in and assassinate me without a sound.
Qi Xin Yue knew that Ding Huan had plenty of blooming divine crystal stones, so she didn't refuse this time.
With lower strength, she would only hold back Ding Huan. She also needed to quickly enhance her abilities.
...
"Boom!"
The exquisite glass door of the Dongxun Genetics Center building was blown to pieces.
Several security guards from the Genetics Union rushed over with their weapons, but upon seeing the person who shattered the glass door, no one dared to be the first to act.
Zhong Chaich, the number one cultivator in China.
Facing such a powerful opponent, if they went forward to attack, it would be like carrying a lantern to the toilet at night, equivalent to looking for death.
Shi Changyi, who was holding a meeting on the top floor, received the news immediately and was seething with anger.
Ding Huan has killed several people from the Genetics Union several times, but he has never met him. Today, he finally caught him.
In his opinion, who would dare to blow up the headquarters of the Genetics Union at Bohai except for Ding Huan, that lawless guy?
As Shi Changyi stood up in anger, he felt something was off.
Ding Huan isn't dead, is he?
"It's Zhong Chaich. He didn't die, but instead returned to Bohai." one of the subordinates reported hurriedly.
Zhong Chaich? Upon hearing it was Zhong Chaich, Shi Changyi became calm instead.
He was thinking, why did Zhong Chaich survive? He had given Zhong Chaich a poison that wasn't from Earth, but rather from the alien spacecraft.
He had already tested it on a Grade A martial artist, which was supposed to cause severe damage to the meridians.
Zhong Chaich had been poisoned with such a substance; how could he possibly recover?
While he didn't see if Ding Huan was dead, he could be certain that Zhong Chaich had been poisoned by the gene-poisonous gas he had unleashed among the gene-horrors. That should have been a death sentence, indeed.
"Alliance Leader, why not wait for him to come up and then..." A man next to Shi Changyi whispered in a low voice.
He has been following Shi Changyi closely, and he could guess something about how Zhong Chaich disappeared.
Now that Zhong Chaich has returned, if the situation is exposed, it will be a great blow to both the Genetics Union and Shi Changyi.
Shi Changyi's heart stirred, and now going down was definitely not a good idea.
Zhong Chaich appears cultivated and courteous on the surface, but in reality, he is just a brute.
If Zhong Chaich goes down, this matter will definitely be exposed to everyone.
As long as Zhong Chaich comes up, he and Leng Qi have over 80% chance of killing Zhong Chaich.
No matter what Zhong Chaich has said, as long as he is killed, everything else doesn't matter.
"Okay." Shi Changyi nodded, sitting down calmly.
He wasn't worried that Zhong Chaich wouldn't come up. A guy like Zhong Chaich, who doesn't wait for him to go down, will definitely rush up to fight.
No, Zhong Chaich wouldn't wait at all. This guy would rush up immediately after smashing the main gate.
However, Shi Changyi didn't sit for long. The phone rang immediately.
"Alliance Leader, Zhong Chaich has someone holding up a large sign at the entrance of the building, claiming that the Genetics Union is in cahoots with gene-horrors, resulting in a breach of the Human Corridor defense line. He also says that you teamed up with gene-horrors to betray him…"
Before the other side could finish speaking, Shi Changyi raised his hand and smashed the phone on the ground, then without hesitation, he rushed down to the ground floor.
This dog thing, why did it play this game with him?
Colluding with gene-horrors? When did Shi Changyi collude with gene-horrors? Auntie can tolerate Uncle, but not this.
In fact, at this moment, the entrance of the Dongxun Genetics Center building was already crowded with people. One was Zhong Chaich, who is the nominal number one cultivator in China.
Next, Zhong Chaich's revelation was truly shocking. What the Genetics Union had colluded with gene-horrors to break the human corridor defense line, and what Shi Changyi had secretly attacked him when Zhong Chaich fought against the gene-horrors.
Not to mention ordinary people, even Yanyu, the Deputy Alliance Leader of the Wushuang Union, had arrived. As for Security Bureau, Qiu Yi was not present, and Director Zhu Qinjiang had come personally.
After all, Zhong Chaich had returned, and this was no small matter.
As the revelation of Zhong Chaich, the number one cultivator in China, this was not something that ordinary people could say without consequence.
Shi Changyi arrived at the entrance and saw Zhong Chaich loudly denouncing Shi Changyi.
Next to Zhong Chaich, someone was holding a large sign that read: 'The Genetics Union is the inside man for the gene-horrors. Alliance Leader Shi Changyi colludes with gene-horrors to break through the human corridor defense line. Shi Changyi secretly plotted against Zhong Chaich.'
"Zhong Chaich, what do you mean?" Shi Changyi's lungs were about to explode.
This guy is at least a strongman, but why does he act like a crazy woman?
Ding Huan has come here several times to kill, but he hasn't broken through the Genetics Union's gate. Zhong Chaich comes and smashes his gate right away, how can one tolerate that?
Zhong Chaich stared at Shi Changyi and said coldly, "Shi Changyi, how dare you ask what happened to me? Who used poisoned darts to ambush me while I was dealing with gene-horrors?"
Zhong Chaich's gaze swept over Leng Qi, who stood behind Shi Changyi, and he silently thought that if he had acted according to his usual temperament, he might have been ambushed by this uncouth man Shi Changyi on the rooftop.
Ding Huan's brother is right. One needs to think before acting.
As Yan Xu and Director Zhu Qinjiang came through the crowd, Zhong Chaich felt that his strategy was good.
