Qingfeng Li stared at Snow Eagle King with such coldness that its feathers stood up in fear .
The Snow Eagle King was surprised that this self-cultivator from the East didn't believe him .
Shwoooop . . .
Suddenly, a huge crowd of self-cultivators appeared, flying towards them .
Leading the pack was Augustine, Uranus, Augustus, Uris, and Poseidon, with other self-cultivators close behind .
"That's the Spring of Life, go for it!" a blonde self-cultivator shouted as he advanced forward at full speed .
"I'll kill anyone who fights with me for the Spring of Life," Augustine said coldly .
He waved his palm, gathering immense energy . With one swift movement, he slapped the blonde self-cultivator away, shattering the poor guy into a million pieces .
The Tiger Continent's self-cultivators were furious at Augustine's arrogance - they couldn't believe that he would kill other people just to take the Spring of Life for himself .
However, they did not have the guts to curse at him . Augustine was the Pope's godson, and he was very strong; challenging him would be a one-way ticket to death .
"Bahahahah, the Spring of Life is mine, no one can steal it from me!" Augustine laughed arrogantly .
His body moved towards the Spring of Life like a speeding arrow; he landed above the Spring of Life in the blink of an eye .
Holding out his right hand, he reached towards the spring and grabbed at the water .
However, as his hand touched the green waters, Augustine let out a gruesome shriek .
"Ahhh! That really hurt," Augustine exclaimed as he retreated . The flesh on his right palm had been burnt off, his pale-white bones exposed . It was horrifying .
The green spring water was actually corrosive, and it burned right through Augustine's flesh and blood .
People's expressions changed as they saw what happened; Augustine was the strongest of the group, and he was a cultivator of the Heavenly Cultivation Technique - imagine how malicious the water was if it had the power to erode right through his palm!
Whoosh!
A green vine emerged from the waters just as Augustine tried to escape .
Thorns as thick as arms stemmed from the vines, tangling Augustine within it in a split second .
He struggled but could not free himself from the green vines .
Augustine's right hand had eroded, but his left hand was still intact – with his left fist, he conjured the God of Light's Fist, and aimed it at the green vines .
The fist was capable of shattering a mountain, yet when it hit the green vines, it did nothing but leave a small scratch .
The thorns dug into Augustine's skin as they suckled at his blood .
"Father, Uranus, please come save me!" he shouted in horror .
Augustine was filled with regret – this wasn't the Spring of Life, it was the Spring of Death!
The other Tiger Continent's self-cultivators looked at Augustine in fear as they retreated .
Qingfeng Li's expression changed as well; a strong energy exuded from the green vines that shook him to the core .
"Cat, do you know what this is?" Qingfeng Li asked with a frown on his face .
The Cat of Fate replied, "Yes I do, this is the Green Vine of a Thousand Demons, a creature at the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm . It's a demonic vine of the God of Destruction, and it sucks the blood and flesh of human beings . "
Qingfeng Li nodded; he had heard of the God of Destruction – it was a powerful Sky God and the enemy of the God of Life . The God of Life created lives, while the God of destruction destroyed and killed .
How did the green vine of a thousand devils appear atop the mountain of the God of Life? Qingfeng Li wondered in surprise .
Meanwhile, Augustus and Uranus attacked the green vines with all their might .
Bam! Smack! Crack!
Countless attacks were heaved at the green vines, knocking it heavily and cracking its thorns .
Augustus had in hand the Book of the Dead, and Uranus had the Pearl of the Thunder God; both were deadly to the green vine of a thousand devils .
Unleashing lightning bolts, the Pearl of the Thunder God cracked and roared, exuding terrifying energy . It blew up the vines' surface until finally, it retreated back into the waters .
A concerned Augustus helped Augustine back onto the ground, "Son, are you alright?"
Rolling his eyes, Augustine answered, "Father, of course I'm not alright . My right hand is gone . "
Augustus shook his head, "Don't worry, once we find the real Spring of Life, it will be able to heal your hand . "
Augustine's face lit up for a moment, but immediately dimmed as he shook his head, "Father, this spring is a fake, and we have no idea where the real Spring of Life is . "
Augustus smiled faintly, "We don't know, but the Cat of Fate does . "
Augustus stood up and walked towards the Cat of Fate – he knew that it was the key to finding the Spring of Life and saving his son's hand .
"Old man, what are you looking at me for?" the Cat of Fate asked .
"Because I want to capture you of course . " Augustus snickered .
The Cat of Fate hid behind Qingfeng Li immediately upon hearing this, exclaiming, "This old man wants to capture me, go deal with him!"
Qingfeng Li nodded; he knew the cat was using him as its lackey, but he needed to help because only the cat could help him find the Spring of Life .
"Move out of the way," Augustus said to Qingfeng Li .
"Who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you?" Qingfeng Li responded scornfully .
Augustus's face darkened upon hearing Qingfeng Li's remarks . He was the leader of the Sky Gods Alliance, did Qingfeng Li have a death wish?
"Book of the Dead," Augustus bellowed as he took out a black book .
The first creature to come out of the book was the crocodile patriarch; like a zombie, it had an expressionless face and dead eyes .
Qingfeng Li was shocked at the sight of the crocodile patriarch, as he thought that he had killed it a few months ago; had he been revived?
Camilla explained as if she understood his shock, "My master, that isn't the real crocodile patriarch, it's just an undead corpse .
