Chapter 2134: Chapter 18: Return to Xuanling, Sealing Land

Could Dao Fu Heavenly Venerable’s talent enter the Divine Eye of the Eight-direction Divine Mirror?

He always felt that the Eight-direction Divine Mirror’s functions were not fully activated, hiding many secrets. Its Artifact Spirit was also very mysterious; perhaps Ji Si could uncover them.

...

Zhao Xing farmed while waiting for Ayiso to make a move. He already wore the Destiny Divine Bone of the Xuerui Zizai God, and with the aid of the Eight-direction Divine Mirror, Ayiso knew exactly when to kill him, so he was not worried at all. With the Eight Directions Divine Realm, it was like having x-ray vision, at least for Ayiso.

Five years after the second banquet ended, Ayiso finally made his move.

He invited Zhao Xing to a place called "Fuh River Valley" at the Three Bends River Bay, stating the reason was Zhao Xing’s excellent work in collecting resources in the area over the years, and he planned to settle the remaining balance.

"What a lousy reason." Zhao Xing tunneled to Fuh River Valley and found that the earth veins there had become difficult to navigate, clearly because of some setup.

Ayiso was also afraid of Zhao Xing’s powerful spell talent. Even during the Emperor’s era, he could travel two hundred miles underground. If he tunneled away, it would all be for nothing.

"Brother Zhao, you’re here. Please sit and have a glass of fine wine." Ayiso warmly invited Zhao Xing to drink wine in the courtyard.

"Thanks to you, the Three Bends River Bay has prospered, and the collection progress has sped up immensely."

"Brother, here are the remaining Soul Crystals. Please be sure to accept them."

Zhao Xing laughed upon seeing it. This fellow really thought he was greedy, trying to lower his guard with the final payment?

But if Ayiso could give him the final payment, he would certainly accept it.

"Then its impoliteness would be worse than noncompliance." Zhao Xing smiled as he accepted it.

Ayiso’s smile grew even brighter: "Come, let me toast to you again, to express my gratitude."

"Hahaha, thank you, Daoist Brother."

Zhao Xing raised his glass and drank it down.

Seeing this, Ayiso set down his wine glass, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

Sixty-seven years, and the mission was finally complete!

There was, of course, poison in the wine. After drinking it, Zhao Xing would soon lose consciousness, and then Ayiso could take him away.

Of course, if Zhao Xing noticed something was off, he could have used force. He just didn’t expect it to go so smoothly.

"Uh uh~ you, you poisoned..." Zhao Xing suddenly clutched his neck, a look of panic spreading across his face.

"Boom!"

Powerful flames erupted from his body, breaking through the door, burrowing deep into the ground, crashing into a large pit.

Ayiso smiled subtly, placidly setting down his wine glass, then leisurely walking out the door: "Too late to realize now."

The pit quickly lost all traces of Zhao Xing’s presence, replaced by a viscous poison, corroding the earth.

Ayiso walked to the pit, intending to retrieve Zhao Xing, only to find no sign of Zhao Xing’s body.

"Swish~"

A hand, covered in gray nails with taut, blue-black muscles and exposed veins, suddenly reached out from below.

Its speed was so fast that Ayiso only saw a streak of black light before the hand clutched his entire being.

"You—"

Ayiso’s eyes filled with shock.

"Marquis Transformation? How is this possible? How is he unharmed?"

Rumble~~~

Zhao Xing’s body rose from the underground. At this moment, black horns sprouted from Zhao Xing’s head, dense fur spread from his head to his back, his muscles as solid as rock, his whole body dark, with light purple demonic patterns flowing down his chest in circles.

A total of nine secret patterns, representing the talents of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Time, and Space.

On Zhao Xing’s back, under the fur-covered body, were three bone needles.

"What kind of monster are you?!" Ayiso was in shock, as he tried to break free, yet fiercely failed to budge Zhao Xing’s hand.

It was like being held not by flesh, but by space itself.

Zhao Xing glanced at the panel.

[Name: Zhao Xing (Marquis Transformation State)]

[Race: Nine Marshes Divine Descendants]

[True Spirit: Eleventh Rank]

[Nine Marshes Holy Body: Twelfth Rank]

[Innate Secret Techniques: Ten Thousand Tribulations Golden Marrow (Locked), Longevity Wheel (Locked), Mysterious Nether Transformation (Locked), Earth Realm Divine Movement (Locked), Thunder Strike Body (Locked), Instant Eternal (Locked).]

[Innate Secret Technique 1: Broken Sky Claw (Unlocked), Nine Marshes Divine Descendants, its right claw can tear through space barriers, the palm contains a singularity, capable of binding heaven and earth.]

[Innate Secret Technique 2: Heavenly Ruins Five Organs (Unlocked), Nine Marshes Divine Descendants retain the body structure of the Human Clan, but the five organs each form their own realm, capable of devouring most non-Divine Objects, converting them into nourishment.]

[Innate Secret Technique 3: World-Burning Divine Eye, the eyes can emit flames that burn with Divine Power.]

[Heavenly Change Divine Needle: Attached Magic Artifact.]

[Marquis Transformation Duration: Three days, if exceeded, unknown side effects will appear.]

...

The Nine Marshes God Marquis Transformation Technique consists of nine levels, and Zhao Xing had mastered three, unlocking three levels of innate secret techniques accordingly.

After transforming, the True Spirit temporarily rose to the Eleventh Rank, the physical body reaching the Twelfth Rank!

The Nine Marsh Gods are Heavenly God Spirits. If the Marquis Transformation was mastered to nine levels, that would be a true Divine Body, unlocking all Talent Divine Skills.

Nonetheless, Zhao Xing could only transform for three days, as the True Spirit couldn’t wield this Marquis Transformation for long; exceeding three days would make reverting difficult.

Grabbing Ayiso with the Talent Divine Skill, rendering him unable to break free, belonged specifically to the ’Broken Sky Claw.’

"Grumble~"

Ayiso did not sit still; his eyes shimmered with green light, reflecting Zhao Xing’s entire body post-transformation.

Ayiso was a Thirteenth Rank Medical Venerable, and was also a Martial Venerate.
