Chapter 1604 - 13: Slaying Bei Mingxin

Chapter 1604: Chapter 13: Slaying Bei Mingxin

He was now completely panicked, instinctively swimming upwards, desperately hoping to break the surface for a breath.

Even at the cost of self-destructing his Spiritual Power and Origin Power, his strength increased dramatically.

Ignoring the blood flowing from pierced wounds on his chest and back, with a slash of his sword and a push of his feet, he shot upwards like an arrow, hundred meters high.

But how could Fang Che let him escape like this?

Take your life while you’re ill.

Junlin Nine Forms, First Form.

Whish!

In the black water, turning into a bolt of lightning, Bei Mingxin’s Divine Sense fully detected and monitored, sensing attacks, desperately defending with his sword.

Clang clang clang...

Utilizing the force of the shock, Bei Mingxin would rather have more holes on his body, but still accelerated upwards.

Fang Che was once again repelled.

The Golden Horned Flood Dragon charged up again, grabbing hold of Bei Mingxin’s ankles with its claws, forcefully dragging him down!

Whish!

Dragged down another fifty meters!

Bei Mingxin was truly close to insanity.

In this bizarre bottom of the Heishui River, there were ghosts and people teaming up against me!

Yet Bei Mingxin was not in vain known as an old demon of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, ranking within the top thirty to forty figures of the Cloud Weapon List.

Under the successive ambushes by Fang Che and the Golden Horned Flood Dragon, Bei Mingxin suffered at least thirty to forty wounds, yet he could still endure, always floating upwards.

Though pushed up only to be pulled down, he managed to ascend more often than being pulled back.

Fang Che was totally perplexed.

You’re in such a state, how can you still maintain such strong combat power? Is there any justice in this?

What Fang Che didn’t know was that Bei Mingxin, to save his life, had already detonated the most precious Origin Power of a Martial Artist.

Which is the very foundation of a Martial Artist.

The explosion of Origin Power, though not as effective as the Burning Heart Technique, is quite comparable in a complete form.

Like Old Man Shen back in the day, just with Origin damaged, or Yu Tianqi’s Origin depleted... These examples show the importance of Origin Power.

Given Bei Mingxin’s current predicament, even if he returned, the chances of acquiring resources to replenish his Origin are nearly zero.

But he had no choice.

If he didn’t explode the Origin, the only road ahead would be death.

So survival is the priority now.

Otherwise, he and his six brothers would perish here, without anyone from Wei Wo Zheng Sect even knowing.

In this Heishui River, two people and a ghost were locked in fierce battle.

Each clash added one or two new wounds to Bei Mingxin’s body.

And these wounds exposed bone or pierced straight through. Yet Bei Mingxin seemed indomitable, holding on with sheer resilience.

Judging from the river depth, they were nearly halfway up.

Just a few more attempts and Bei Mingxin could break through.

Fang Che was burning with urgency.

Clearly the opponent was so weak, yet Fang Che just couldn’t kill him! Are all these Cloud City experts this difficult?

Bei Mingxin was now only protecting specific parts of his body: his right hand, head, neck, heart, and lower region.

Anywhere else, stab as you wish, I can still use the force to push upwards.

But not these areas!

Cloud City experts deal with shrimp a few levels below in such unreasonable ways.

Moreover, Bei Mingxin’s frustration lay in... his Space Ring, dropped with his broken arm. Had he held the Space Ring, it contained Recovery Elixirs.

If that were the case, even at the bottom of the Heishui River, with Water Control Power and help from the Golden Horned Flood Dragon, Bei Mingxin could have counter-killed Fang Che.

At the Saint Level, nothing is forbidden.

It’s just like this!

What’s more, this Saint Level fought with Origin Power!

After prolonged fighting, Fang Che had already consumed several Pills, holding the Netherworld to continue battling, silently and without missing, stabbing Bei Mingxin’s thigh.

Yet he deliberately stalled for a moment.

Unsurprisingly, Bei Mingxin’s sword followed, clanging on the Netherworld.

Fang Che allowed the spear to remain in Bei Mingxin’s thigh, forcefully thrusting forward.

Bei Mingxin clutched the sword with one hand, desperately chopping at the Nether Spear Body, using this heart-wrenching reverberation to float upwards, swoosh swoosh swoosh.

Speed like lightning.

Even pulling Fang Che along upwards.

Bei Mingxin saw hope.

This human in the water, his cultivation is at most Monarch Level. Such a guy is far inferior to my Saint Level!

He has no idea that at Saint Level, nothing is forbidden.

I don’t need much, just one breath. Though now I’m burnt out, just let me surface and take a breath!

I’ll immediately counter-kill him!

Effortlessly.

Below, Fang Che’s other hand suddenly revealed the Nether Monarch Blade. Amidst Bei Mingxin’s frantic chopping at the Netherworld...

Fang Che delivered a fierce slash.

Slash!

Bei Mingxin’s sword-wielding right hand was severed clean from the elbow by Fang Che!

The severed hand with the sword fell gracefully.

Caught by Fang Che, immediately stowed in the Space Ring.

Bei Mingxin was consumed in the excitement of impending escape, suddenly feeling an emptiness.

His arm, hand, and sword were gone!

Bei Mingxin abruptly fell into profound despair!

The opponent... had another Divine Weapon knife!

Moreover, it must be made of Divine Attribute Metal or Star Metal, otherwise, firstly it couldn’t harm me, and secondly, it would have shattered under my sword’s strike long ago!

Such low-level cultivation, possessing an extraordinary spear, was already unexpected.

Yet the opponent also had a sharp knife for slashing!
