Chapter 411 - 251: The End

Chapter 411: Chapter 251: The End

Su Xing’s pupils constricted, his eyes locked on his opponent. For all his power, he had never seen a sight so bizarre, and it sent a chill down his spine.

"Kid, you’ve really pissed me off."

The head of Black Impermanence landed on the ground and bounced around, its voice becoming extremely hoarse and grating. But as it spoke, the entire head flew back onto the headless body. At the same time, he chopped off his own right hand.

As blood gushed forth, the head that had belonged to White Impermanence shot over in an instant, merging with the severed right arm to become an arm that was entirely crimson.

"Kid, you’re pretty strong."

After that whole ordeal, the two men who had looked like Black and White Impermanence transformed into a single, clean-featured man. The bizarre makeup was gone from his face, replaced by crimson pupils. He held a staff in each hand, and his presence was extraordinary.

"I didn’t expect you to be able to force me into this form. But I’m not Black and White Impermanence. My name is Chi Yu. Remember it—it’s the name of the one who will kill you."

As he spoke, his crimson eyes remained locked on Su Xing. He sounded arrogant, but he didn’t look down on Su Xing in the slightest.

After all, even though he hadn’t been using his full power and was only fighting casually, the fact remained that his head had been lopped off by a single sword strike. Since he had been bested, he now needed to be two hundred percent cautious.

’Chi Yu...’ Su Xing thought. ’Even though I knew he couldn’t be the real Black and White Impermanence, the abilities he’s demonstrating are even more monstrous than I imagined.’

’His right hand, in particular... it has its own consciousness and can even operate a separate body to fight in tandem. Could that be a special ability of his race?’

’It’s unbelievable. Then again, the world is a vast place. It’s not that surprising for someone to have a few strange abilities.’

"Xiaohai, why are you wasting time with all this useless chatter? Let’s just hurry up and finish him off." A pair of eyeballs and a mouth suddenly grew on Chi Yu’s right hand and began to chirp away.

"Heh. Xiaohai. You’re really getting into character."

Chi Yu found this rather amusing. He gripped the staff in his left hand, then slowly relaxed his hold. His gaze lingered on Su Xing for a long moment before he shook his head and said:

"We can’t continue this fight. Our goal isn’t to fight him to the death. Let’s move on to the next area."

"But—"

Before his right hand could finish, Chi Yu vanished. ’To be honest,’ Su Xing thought, ’if my opponent had really decided to fight me to the death, it’s hard to say what would have happened.’

’Logically, merging from two people into one should have made him weaker. But I sensed a faint aura of Source Essence from Chi Yu.’

’Source Essence... Having that puts you on a completely different level. An Extraordinary Being without Source Essence has virtually no chance against one who possesses it. If he hadn’t suddenly lost interest, I might have had to use Shattered Sword.’

The exchange sounded complex, but it had only been a few moves. The commotion was immense, but very little time had passed. Thus, the two Dragon Gate Elders watching from a distance were both in shock.

They thought they had a clear grasp of just how powerful the man who called himself Chi Yu was. But for Su Xing to be able to force him into a retreat all by himself... his strength was truly unfathomable.

Just then, amidst some distant ruins, Qin Mo was silently watching. In truth, he had arrived long before.

But seeing that Su Xing was locked in a fierce battle and not at a major disadvantage, he had refrained from intervening immediately, choosing instead to stand aside and observe.

As a result, he had witnessed one shocking scene after another. Su Xing’s strength was so great, countless times stronger than when they had fought, and yet, it had only been a single day.

’Extraordinary Beings who grow stronger every day are rare, but I’ve seen them before. But for an Extraordinary Being to get *this* much stronger overnight... this is the first time I’ve ever seen anything like it.’

’Perhaps... in the future, he could be the key to turning the tide in this battle.’

Qin Mo thought silently to himself.

With that, he turned and returned to the Treasure Pavilion without revealing himself to Su Xing. Since the situation had been resolved, there was no need for him to intervene. Besides, he seemed to have realized something—that perhaps he wasn’t so weak after all.

’The Tier Eight Dragon Gate Elders were completely powerless against those two, but Su Xing was able to hold his own. And even a Su Xing this strong was still no match for me.’

’No wonder... no wonder those old geezers are always so deferential to me. It turns out I’m just that strong. I always thought it was just because of my seniority.’

The thought made Qin Mo chuckle. Shaking his head in amusement, he walked back to the Treasure Pavilion.

"Are you all right? El—Elder Su."

The two Dragon Gate Elders who had rushed over looked at Su Xing’s caved-in chest and asked with immediate concern.

They were Tier Eight Powerhouses, after all. But in the face of such a terrifying battle, they were practically no different from ordinary people. The biggest difference was likely that if they were determined to flee, they could definitely escape, whereas a normal person might have been killed by a single aftershock.

In a head-on fight, however, they were completely useless. This left them feeling nothing but boundless admiration and respect for the injured Su Xing, which was why they had unconsciously started addressing him as Elder Su.
