AST 2436 – The Powerful Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm

Qing Shui could tell that Ling Chen’s assaults were meant to break through his techniques with force . When Ling Chen’s attacks came again, it was still the same Tyrannous Mountain Split .

However, it seemed to carry even more vigor than before .

It engulfed Qing Shui . Not only was Tyrannous Mountain Split formidable, but it was also imposing . More importantly, Qing Shui found himself out of time to dodge .

Nine Stances of Ancient Divine Battle Technique’s cultivation was still lacking; otherwise, it would have been able to dispel a portion of it .

Thump!

The oppressive tackle struck again, and Qing Shui spat out a mouthful of blood . It was just a minor injury which his body could slowly heal on its own . It wasn’t a big deal for now, but it would grow severe at this rate . Hence, there was a need to turn the tables around .

Hidden Weapon!

Qing Shui suddenly remembered an ability which he had yet unleashed . He hadn’t found himself in a situation such as this before and therefore, didn’t find a chance to use it . He had always felt that this hidden weapon was like a sneak attack . In fact, hidden weapons were often used during unexpected moments and could be considered a sneak attack .

Of course, when hidden weapons reached a certain level, it no longer needed to be a sneak attack . One could let their opponents see the hidden weapon as they were attacked by it . It wouldn’t be possible to dodge either; at that level, it was much like having a gun pointed at you in his past life . It was impossible to dodge .

Ling Chen’s silver spear unleashed another Tyrannous Mountain Split .

At that moment, Qing Shui raised his hands as two silver needles shot toward Ling Chen’s eyes . Their speed was astonishingly quick, but it wasn’t Qing Shui’s highest potential . He had used it in a rush, causing its performance to be discounted .

However, even so, Ling Chen was still forced to dodge them in haste . Consequently, his incomplete Tyrannous Mountain Split fell apart on its own .

Mountain Push Stance!

Just as his opponent was evading, Qing Shui used Mountain Push Stance .

The heavy and slow attack lunged forward while the spear in Ling Chen’s hands struck down in frenzy .

From what Qing Shui could see, it was still the Tyrannous Mountain Split!

Boom!

Qing Shui’s Mountain Push Stance was dispelled as Ling Chen retreated by three steps .

Seal of Xuantian!

A gigantic, silver stone tower fell from above Ling Chen .

Primordial Flame Dragon Drill!

Qing Shui began using Primordial assaults . As he did, he would include a few silver needles from time to time, throwing Ling Chen into confusion in a moment .

Boom!

Roar!

Primordial Dragon Elephant let out a roar . A gaping wound appeared on its body with fresh blood flowing out . White tiger had found an opportunity to do a sneak attack and inflict serious damage on Primordial Dragon Elephant’s body .

Qing Shui’s heart sank . Meanwhile, Ling Chen stabbed at Qing Shui .

Instant Slash!

This was one of Ling Chen’s terrifying killing techniques . Its force was even stronger than Tyrannous Mountain Split, and its speed doubled . The technique was simple with an element of armor penetration and ability to ignore defense .

Many warriors had died under this Instant Slash technique of Ling Chen’s .

Qing Shui squinted . At this point, he didn’t have the luxury of being overly-concerned anymore .

Divine Weapon Flying Sword, Throat Lock!

Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm!

Stellar Transposition!

Right before Ling Chen’s attack reached him, Qing Shui attacked without dodging .

There was a golden glow, the effect of Paragon Golden Armor . This attack was targeted at Qing Shui’s throat, an ultimate killing technique .

At the same time, Divine Weapon Flying Sword sliced at the opponent’s neck as well . Halo appeared around Ling Chen’s body before Stellar Transposition struck against his skull .

Boom!

Perhaps it was the halo at work, but the attack didn’t inflict severe injuries . However, Qing Shui’s focus was on Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm and for it to enter Ling Chen’s brain .

He couldn’t remember the last time he had used a trump card like Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm, and neither did he expect to use it today . This was Qing Shui’s last protective charm and his last resort to winning by a surprise move .

Ling Chen was still a fearsome character . He was strong, the cream of the crop among younger generations . The number of young men like him in Nine Continents could be counted with two hands .

If they were this strong, then how much stronger were the people backing them?

Ling Chen felt something in his brain before an immense pain overtook him . It seemed like something was eating at his brain . He calmed down then saw that it was a golden little worm feeding on his own brain .

He was scared now . This was terrifying . He attempted all ways to get rid of it but to no avail . He lifted his head and locked his gaze on Qing Shui . “There’s no need for this to end in death between us . I lost . Isn’t it time for you to get it out?”

Qing Shui was calm . “Why isn’t it necessary for us to end it in death?”

“Nine Continents is huge with many powerful forces around . Killing me won’t do you any good . I’m not a saint but I’m not evil either . Being friends would open more roads for us . We might be able to help each other in the future, what do you say?” Ling Chen tolerated the pain in his brain, but he was at Qing Shui’s mercy now . He had no choice .

“How am I supposed to believe you? We’ve already had a grudge . If I let you go, I’ll have another enemy . ” Qing Shui was relaxed now .

“That thing you left in my head is horrifying . Nobody in their right mind would provoke you . Didn’t you want the white tiger? Why don’t I give it to you?” Ling Chen couldn’t think of anything else . The worm in his head was still feeding . At this rate, he’d be reduced to an idiot even if he didn’t die .

“Hm, this is good . It’s good to be able to reap some benefits after fighting . This little tiger must be delicious . Alright, give me the little tiger, and let’s be friends,” said Qing Shui seriously .

“That… Can you not eat it? Can you just take it as your pet? It has followed me for many years; it’d be a pity for it to be eaten . ” Ling Chen trembled .

Qing Shui could tell that the man treasured this little tiger . A noble man would not forcibly seize the treasures of others, and while Qing Shui wasn’t anyone noble, he didn’t have any intentions of taking the tiger . Since he wanted to be friends with Ling Chen, then he’d have to be sincere . That was why he had said those words before too; he just wanted Ling Chen to go through the process of regaining what he lost .

“Alright, since you adore the little tiger this much, then I don’t want it anymore . I can’t trust that you really want to be friends with me . However, I was just thinking that it’d be good to not be enemies . I have too many, and it’s tiring . ” Qing Shui shook his head, stopping Ling Chen from canceling himself as the white tiger’s master .

“Younger brother, I should be older than you . There’s no need for more words . As the saying goes, you see a person’s true nature with time . The worm of yours is horrifying, and it wouldn’t be difficult for you to kill me . To be honest, I knew of you and wouldn’t have looked for you . Although I didn’t complete my deal, I’ve walked my round along the thin thread between life and death; I could be considered to have repaid my debt . ” Ling Chen sighed .

Qing Shui could feel the terror of his own Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm as well . He hadn’t used it for a few years, and it had always been in Central Palace Blood Essence Pool . Who knew that it had grown this powerful since then . What a pleasant surprise . Ling Chen mentioned that this thing was a Divine Worm and possibly the legendary Killing God Divine Worm .

Qing Shui felt that perhaps he’d need to use Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm in the future . After all, this was the Upper Three Regions, and he would not be able to counter against those mystical and terrifying existences . When the time came, he’d have to rely on Marrow Nibbling Golden Dragon Silkworm .
