I Have Medicine

Chapter 464 - Huo Li’s Conclusion

Gongyi Tianheng didn’t hesitate at all. Two palms crashed together, and Huo Li was already caught between them.

Huo Li’s figure was engulfed within the two palms. In the small crack between the palms, an intense flame suddenly burst out! However, although this flame was incomparably bright and carried formidable strength, it still only persisted for a short while before it dimmed more and more. Then, the flame went out!

Many prodigies were astonished — Could he have died?

For a prodigy to be hounded to death with such a light stroke of the brush, this inevitably left people incredibly shocked!

Those two enormous bloody handprints quickly faded away, and the vast suppressive might also completely disappeared. Within those two palms, everyone saw a bright pearl the size of a chicken egg bursting out with intense rays of light before instantly exploding! Shortly thereafter, a beam of fiery light fell to the side. All of a sudden, Huo Li was revealed.

Merely, Huo Li’s complexion was pale at the moment. It appeared that he just recovered from the shock, but his qi emissions had weakened considerably. It looked like he had degenerated from the Atomic Realm to peak Immortal!

Unexpectedly, he had been knocked down a major realm!

— However, this person was still alive.

Tianheng was hardly surprised.

Since there were beast pearls that could take the place of the lives of Xiantian and Immortal Realm cultivators, it was to be expected that there were other things capable of a single life-substitution after one reached the Atomic Realm. Practically every prodigy was someone nurtured by their respective forces, and it was only natural that they had their own life-saving means. Let alone Huo Li, who cultivated the path of domination. Outside of being arrogant and despotic, he naturally wanted to protect himself even more.

This drop of one realm was probably the required price of saving his own life — After all, the higher the realm, the harder it was for one’s life to be substituted.

As a result, after Huo Li’s realm dropped, he was just about to brandish another object to escape. Tianheng decisively took action once again. As before, he still struck down with one Great Asura Hand after another.

When Huo Li was at his previous realm, it was already difficult to run away from the bloody handprints. Now that his strength had fallen drastically, how could he dodge them? Before he had time to react, he had already been slapped squarely and securely!

However, when the bloody handprint diminished, another pearl cracked apart, a beam of fiery light erupted, and Huo Li’s figure reappeared. This time around, his realm didn’t fall too much. It was only at the mid Immortal Realm. It was probably because his strength had decreased that the price was likewise a little smaller.

At this point, Huo Li’s complexion was deathly pale.

When Tianheng lifted his palm once more, an enormous bloody handprint was floating right above Huo Li. The distance between the top of his head and the Great Asura Hand was no more than two feet. As for the blood poison’s qi emanating from this bloody handprint, it was only three to four inches away.

As one could well imagine, so long as Tianheng’s thoughts moved, whether it was the blood poison or the bloody handprint itself, both of them could instantly take Huo Li’s life again!

The fury in Huo Li’s eyes soared and the tyrannical intent of his path of domination still lingered around his body, but in the depths of his eyes, there was a faint trace of fear.

Gu Zuo took everything in, and couldn’t help revealing a happy, smiling expression.

As expected, he knew that big brother wasn’t going to let off Huo Li. Just a moment ago, he struck Huo Li twice, but in fact, he killed him twice. It was clear that this Huo Li was already plagued by a shadow cast by Tianheng. His heart of domination was also cracked. When Huo Li attempted to cultivate in the future, he would certainly suffer greatly for it!

One needed to know that once one’s determination on the path of martial arts was injured, their future prospects on that path of martial arts would darken, too — He would only be able to break through again and soar in the sky if he could overcome this type of shackle!

But so long as big brother was around, this would become a shadow over Huo Li. If he wanted to break through, he needed to beat big brother… And since big brother was already better than Huo Li, how could this fellow, whose willpower was injured, pull off a comeback?

Dealing with Huo Li in this way was quite relieving.

The facts were also like this.

When all was said and done, Huo Li was a prodigy, and behind him was at least a silver-ranked organization. Admittedly, while Tianheng wasn’t afraid, he had already killed Huo Li twice, and each instance had been substituted with a precious treasure. If Tianheng continued for a third time, then it would obviously be an excessive provocation that wouldn’t be overlooked. This matter would be easily used as a pretense for making a fuss &#k2014; Beating a prodigy to death and breaking a prodigy’s willpower were still two different things.

Of course, even if this was used as a pretense, it was still Huo Li who brought it upon himself. It was only a pity that there weren’t any benefits in this. Tianheng was someone who disliked doing this kind of net-loss transaction.

Hence, Tianheng looked down at Huo Li from his higher position, and gently opened his mouth: “Prodigy Huo Li, what are you considering now?”

This question was naturally about whether he wanted the black dragon jades or his own life.

If Huo Li agreed, then those black dragon jades would become the currency to buy his life, which just so happened to benefit Tianheng. If Huo Li still tactlessly refused, then it was reasonable for Tianheng to demand Huo Li’s life again. No one could say that he was in the wrong.

Huo Li’s gaze was grim.

Above his head, the bloody handprint descended inch by inch. It was continuously getting closer to him.

This was a threat! This was coercion! Yet, Huo Li had no choice but to admit defeat.

Clenching his jaws and gnashing his teeth, Huo Li tossed out a string of black lights.

These black lights swiftly shot out in all directions. As it turned out, he had scattered these black dragon jades like flower petals. Due to the unwillingness in his heart, he wanted to give a little more trouble to Tianheng!

The corner of Tianheng’s mouth curled up.

After that, the enormous bloody handprint suddenly moved. With unexpected agility, it swept across the surroundings.

Not a single one of those black lights was missed. All of them entered the hollow of his palm.

In a flash, Tianheng put those black dragon jades into his sleeve pouch. Meanwhile, the instant Huo Li tossed out the black lights, he whipped his sleeves around and rapidly retreated toward his own subordinates.

The Ascendant Realm battle slaves who accompanied Huo Li swiftly turned back to securely protect him.

Following this, Huo Li and his group no longer had the face to remain here. Instead, they left this land with great speeds.

Among the numerous prodigies, there was one less person.

Shortly thereafter, Tianheng faintly smiled, and put his hands away.

Tianheng’s figure flashed past, and arrived in front of another prodigy — At first, this prodigy was in the middle of fighting someone else. In the end, he was knocked back by that person. Just as he was about to continue stepping forward, his original opponent was confronted by some other prodigy. And when he wanted to re-engage, he was blocked by Tianheng.

Tianheng slightly extended his hand: “Please give me some pointers.”

Having heard what was said, this prodigy looked at Tianheng with a dignified expression: “After you.”

Just a while ago, when this fellow dealt with Prodigy Huo Li, he had split a bit of attention to witness how formidable Tianheng had been. Now that he was facing this person, he was afraid that it wouldn’t be easy to handle.

But, how could he back down?

After this prodigy responded, he swiftly acted!

Tianheng similarly took action. This time around, he didn’t utilize that Great Asura Hand. Rather, his hand made a grasping motion, and gripped a silver spear. Then, he started an intense fight with this prodigy!

The martial disciplines that this prodigy cultivated were also quite frightening. When his hands moved, not only did they draw the movements of wind and thunder, an indistinct virtual image of an intertwined fish and dragon took shape behind him.

Every motion of Tianheng’s spear stabbed at the intersection between the fish and dragon. That gigantic fish suddenly opened its maw to spray out a powerful current, and the long dragon abruptly lashed its tail to create a brilliant and mighty gale.

However, these kinds of attacks couldn’t do anything to Tianheng. His spear point repeatedly thrusted out, and his spear shaft instantly flung the gigantic fish and lifted the long dragon. Then, he swiftly moved backwards. Both of his hands stretched out, and that silver spear had already turned into a golden bow. Suddenly, an arrow shot straight into the fish’s maw, and another burst of vigorous power struck out to disperse that dragon!

This prodigy watched these methods of Tianheng. His brows faintly furrowed, but his actions were firm and stable. It was like he was completely unaffected. Each move and every form was still filled with incredible strength.

Meanwhile, after Tianheng shot several arrows, he suddenly lifted his palm, clenched his fingers into a fist, and brazenly and explosively punched out — Bang!

A huge blood-colored fist mark blasted out. It streaked across the sky like a star.

That prodigy grabbed a shield and held it in front of himself. However, that shield couldn’t completely resist the fist mark. Therefore, his chest suffered a muffled blow, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, Tianheng somehow appeared behind him.

That prodigy was alarmed!

Tianheng plainly said: “Please hand over the black dragon jades in your possession to me. How about it?”

His palm lightly pushed forward. A terrifying power was brewing in the hollow of his palm.

That prodigy had no other alternative. In passing, he threw out a dozen or so beams of black light. As for himself, he swiftly pulled away — Although he was unreconciled, he didn’t want to deal with this monstrous disaster here anymore. It was better to quickly go and plunder the black dragon jades of other people!

With his capabilities as a prodigy, he took the opportunity to escape, which went very smoothly. Once Tianheng got a hold of those black dragon jades, this prodigy was already quite far away, and had joined the fray on the other side.

Tianheng gained lots of black dragon jades, and unhurriedly put them away.

Soon after, he moved again, and charged toward another lone prodigy.

In the sky, Tianheng wasn’t the only one who was doing this kind of thing. All of the prodigies were like this. It was just that, when battling their opponents, most of them couldn’t determine the outcome of their matches as quickly as Tianheng. As a result, their fights were relatively precarious, and the number of black dragon jades they seized fell short of what Tianheng acquired.

However, each person fought at close quarters, and all of them struggled and competed. From time to time, a few prodigies managed to defeat their opponents with great difficulty. Though, due to the injuries they sustained, another prodigy would take advantage of the situation to inflict further damage and snatch their black dragon jades…

In this way, the struggle was bitter and desperate. Blood rained down, one drop after another.

Down below, Gu Zuo watched on. He almost held his breath.

At this time, the prodigies quickly determined who was stronger and who was weaker. After one round of battle, some prodigies had large portions of their black dragon jades snatched away, and had no choice but to leave the battlefield. However, there were also several prodigies who towered above the others in such battles. They quickly revealed superior skills that were worthy of admiration.

Now, the ones who were the most eye-catching in the sky were undoubtedly these few prodigies.

One was Gongyi Tianheng. His temperament appeared natural and poised, but most of his utilized methods were based primarily on bloody palms and fists to attack and kill. It was incredibly rough and brutal.

The second prodigy was that young man whose figure was tall and straight. He was extremely slim like the edge of a blade. He wielded a thin, single-edged dagger that resembled a paring knife, his body was like a ghostly demon, and his speed was tremendously fast. More often than not, before the other party sensed anything, they were already attacked by him. In the blink of an eye, they were immediately wounded.

The third was that prodigy who resembled a malevolent wolf. During his battles, his body actually transformed into an enormous wolf with a pair of wings on his back. The howls that issued from his throat were horrifying, and seemed capable of shaking one’s resolutions. Moreover, he was exceptionally violent. Everything that crossed his wolfish fangs were torn to shreds!

The fourth’s palms gathered wind dragons, and their form was like a gust of wind. Anyone who fought them couldn’t help being injured by the boundless forces within the storm.

The fifth was that beautiful young lady in the purple dress. Her figure was enchanting and alluring, and she moved like she was dancing. Her slender fingers appeared to pull many threads. Above those threads, purple lights glinted and sparkled like the stars. Every swipe of purple light brought terrible damage. Others gave way in the face of superior strength, and it was difficult to withstand.

These were the highest layer of prodigies. When Gu Zuo arrived at this place, they were also the first prodigies who entered his eyes. Now that he thought about this, they didn’t catch his attention because they were closer to him. Instead, it was because the powers contained within their bodies were the most formidable. They were so eye-catching that others would notice them at first glance!

However, Gu Zuo also felt that his family’s big brother was the strongest among them.

Although the skills of the others were powerful, and it seemed that they hadn’t even used their full strengths yet, his big brother was more relaxed and effortless. In addition, because he displayed what he himself comprehended, his skills were the most suitable for him and could exhibit the greatest might.

As time passed, prodigies left the battlefield one after another. The number of remaining people continued to decrease.

At this moment, there were fewer and fewer competitors. When the most powerful people seized control of the majority of the black dragon jades, their movements suddenly halted.

Five people each occupied their own sides, floating in the empty sky.
