Mo Wen glanced at Bao Xun, who was enveloped in a layer of green fog. His face was green, a sign of being poisoned. Furthermore, the poison did not seem simple.

“Haha, Bao Xun, you are dying. You never expected this, did you?”

Xu Tu laughed out loud with a pleased expression in his eyes. His nemesis was dying in front of him, how could he not be pleased?

He had always been very conservative in his fights with the White Wolf Triad. He had never once used the Broken Qi bow nor the decaying poison. He was well aware that a man’s wealth might be the cause of his downfall. If he was not powerful enough, he would not be able to guard the good stuff and it would lead to his death.

He had always wanted to kill Bao Xun, but never had the chance to. He did not dare to use the Broken Qi bow casually, because once the news spread, he would bring trouble on himself even if he killed Bao Xun.

But it was different now. They were on his territory and everyone there was his men. Those who could wield the Broken Qi bow were the ones he trusted. He did not need to worry that news of his possessing the bows would spread. He did not expect that Bao Xun would be so daring to barge into the lands of the Tiger Head Triad alone.

There would be no danger to him as long as he killed Bao Xun and the young competitor. He would even gain a jade pendant. It was truly a double blessing.

Even though Mo Wen was a martial arts grandmaster, he had the Broken Qi bows and the decaying poison. He was also a martial arts grandmaster. He was not worried about defeating the two.

Furthermore, Bao Xun was now under the effects of the decaying poison. It meant that he was completely out of the game and would no longer be able to fight. It left the young man alone. What could he possibly do?

Bao Xun’s face was ashen, and his eyes were filled with resentment. He had planned to get rid of the Tiger Head Triad and kill Xu Tu through Mo Wen. However, he had never imagined, not even in his dreams, that Xu Tu had hidden his abilities so well. If he had taken out the Broken Qi bows and the decaying poison earlier, Bao Xun would have died long ago. They had fought for so many years but he only showed his true viciousness now.

The decaying poison was the scariest strong poison in the Red Stone forest. It came from the Rot Valley and was extremely venomous. Once poisoned, not even a martial arts grandmaster could hold up against it.

Furthermore, the poison spread incredibly quickly. It would spread throughout the body in a few breaths. If he had cut off his arm after he was poisoned and stopped the poison from spreading, he could have been saved. However, he had not known that there was decaying poison on the arrowhead and had missed the best treatment time. It was too late for him now even if he wanted to save himself.

“Lad, you shall die too. It is rare for us to see competitors with your level of cultivation. I suppose even thinking of killing a genius is something satisfying.”

Xu Tu laughed ferociously and waved his arm. The archers on the mountains raised their bows once again and fired. He knew that competitors could escape through the power of space. He could not give Mo Wen the chance to do that. He had to kill him at the first moment possible.

Bao Xun’s eyes were filled with hopelessness. He did not have the strength to fight anymore. He sat with his knees crossed and tried to stop the decaying poison from attacking him, trying his best to delay his death.

Mo Wen stood still expressionlessly. A wave of arrows shot towards him. The arrowheads shone with a dark green light. It was obvious that there was decaying poison smeared over it. However, Mo Wen treated it as if he had not seen it.

A hint of confusion flashed in Xu Tu’s eyes. He did not understand why the young man could be so calm. Wasn’t he scared?

The person’s psychological strength was too weak. He had strong cultivation levels but his will did not correspond in strength.

Xu Tu did not care what was happening with Mo Wen. He took a step forward and exploded with strong inner Qi. His aura enveloped Mo Wen and suppressed him firmly.

Even though the Broken Qi bow could break through the inner Qi defenses of a martial arts grandmaster, martial arts grandmasters could easily dodge the arrowheads of the Broken Qi bow. As long as he could block Mo Wen, Mo Wen would definitely die.

Xu Tu swung his fist. His inner Qi was much stronger than Bao Xun’s. His fist was like a strike of lightning, and Qi rushed up from within him. It was like a mountain smashing toward his target.

Mo Wen radiated a ball of gold light. It was like a blinding sun and much more powerful than Xu Tu’s inner Qi.

A ray of golden light in the shape of a fist collided with Xu Tu. The terrifying force threw Xu Tu backward into the air. They had only exchanged one blow and Xu Tu was already on the losing end.

Xu Tu was very shocked. The young man was so powerful. He suffered internal injuries just from that collision. He feared that the young man was already at the pinnacle of the first realm of martial arts grandmasters. He had underestimated him. No wonder Bao Xun was so docile and respectful towards the man. He must have already seen how powerful and strong the young man was.

Yet…

Xu Tu’s lips curled up in a ferocious smile. No matter how powerful his cultivation was, he would not be able to block the Broken Qi bow. The Broken Qi bow would definitely kill a warrior in the first martial arts grandmaster realm. Warriors in the second martial arts grandmaster realm would be able to barely block it, but it was likely that they would be injured. Only warriors in the third martial arts grandmaster realm were completely immune to the Broken Qi bow.

The young man had lost the best opportunity to dodge. The arrow was in front of him. As long as the arrowhead grazed him, the decaying poison would spread throughout his body rapidly. The young man would be for his taking once he was poisoned, wouldn’t he?

A large number of arrows appeared in front of Mo Wen after he punched Xu Tu. It would be very difficult for him to dodge even if he wanted to. It was almost impossible for an ordinary first realm martial arts grandmaster to dodge.

Mo Wen did not care because he cultivated in the Glory of Wind technique. As a rite of passage martial arts, he could dodge an attack of this level even with his eyes closed.

However, he had no intention of dodging because he wanted to test the power of the Broken Qi bow.

There was a rush of cold wind and the gold light shining from Mo Wen slowly retracted. His entire person turned gold. His eyes, hair, and skin…His entire person seemed to be carved from dark gold. He was like a buddha statue sitting in a temple. Even his clothes had turned completely into a pure gold color.

Mo Wen released an enormous gust of Qi. He seemed to be endlessly majestic.

Xu Tu was shocked. Even though he did not know what secret technique it was that Mo Wen was using, it did not look simple.

Clang clang clang…

Mo Wen did not dodge at all. The arrowheads struck his body and the sounds of metal clanging rang through the air.

After the wave of arrows passed, Mo Wen continued standing where he was. His shirt fluttered in the air and his body continued to glow with gold light. There were arrows scattered on the ground and the arrowheads of the arrows all glowed with a green light.

“How is that possible!”

Xu Tu’s eyes widened. At least thirty arrows shot at Mo Wen. Furthermore, the archers all had at least Golden Elixir realm cultivation levels. The power of each arrow was shocking.

A single person had managed to block all the arrows using his body. That was completely unimaginable. He feared that not even some third realm martial arts grandmasters were able to do that.

What exactly was that golden body secret skill? It was so powerful!

“Light rain.”

Mo Wen shook his head with disappointment in his eyes. That was what he thought of the arrows. Other than the ability to break through one’s inner Qi, it was nothing to be in awe of.

To ordinary warriors, the inner Qi defense was their strongest defense. Their bodies were usually not powerful, which was why the Broken Qi bow posed such a great threat to them.

However, Mo Wen’s physical body was extremely strong. Warriors below the martial arts grandmaster realm would find it hard to damage it. Furthermore, he also had the Indestructible Body of Vajarapani.

Perhaps only the powerhouses in the martial arts grandmaster realm using the Broken Qi bow might break through his defense with some difficulty.

Bao Xun was also wide-eyed. He did not expect Mo Wen to be so powerful that he could completely ignore the Broken Qi arrows.

Hope swelled within him. If Mo Wen won, there was a possibility that he might be able to survive.

Xu Tu’s expression was ugly. He knew that he had encountered a difficult enemy. Mo Wen was not afraid of the Broken Qi bow, and his cultivation was very strong. There was almost nowhere he could attack Mo Wen from.

“Your archery skills need improvement. Courtesy demands reciprocity. Try out my arrows.”

Mo Wen smiled lightly. He stretched out his hand and drew a circle in the air. Waves appeared the next moment like ripples in the air, which immediately spread several hundred meters.

The fallen arrows on the ground seemed to be drawn by an invisible suction force and flew up into the air.

Under the mysterious force, they spun madly around Mo Wen. The pressure caused by the swirling arrows caused an enormous whirlpool. The sand and stone on the cliff were pulled into the whirlpool and rocks floated in the air.

“Oh no!”

Xu Tu’s expression changed greatly and he shouted in surprise. “Shield! Shield!”

However, his reminder was too late.

The arrows were like tightly wound bullets and flew out with a whoosh toward the archers on the mountains.

They were very fast — too fast!

In the blink of an eye, the archers on the mountain fell, one after the other. An arrow stuck out of each of their chests. The force was so shockingly powerful that they were thrown into the air and pinned onto the mountain walls.

In mere minutes, almost 20 archers were all dead.

Xu Tu was attacked as well. A terrifying force carried five arrows towards him.

The force carrying the arrows was amazing. It could fix itself to Xu Tu so that he could not dodge the arrows. He could only block them.

“Damn it!”

Xu Tu did not expect the youth to be so scary or that he would force him into a corner in mere moments.

Roar!

On the brink of death, Xu Tu did not dare to hold back any longer. He released a ball of green Qi forcefully. His body was enveloped in the green Qi. Slowly, a startling change occurred.

He swelled up into a human-shaped beast. His face was hateful, and his expression was ferocious. Xu Tu was five meters tall. His skin was green and he emitted a metallic sheen. There were many bumps on his body, and his eyes were icy cold. Balls of powerful decaying green Qi rushed from him. The rock beneath his feet corroded into a large crater.

“The decaying technique! You are from the Rot Valley!” Bao Xun yelled in shock.

Xu Tu was from the Rot Valley. He was using was the Steel Corpse Technique, which only people from the Rot Valley could practice.
