Psychic Inventor In Cultivation World
244 Chapter 243 : : Skill Combo
Even after all the elders and disciples that came were killed, it wasn't the over and soon more people came to fight but their ending was still the same.
Monster Hunting Sect focused on quantity rather than quality, they easily accepted new disciples without any hard trial or building their loyalty that's why the number of people in Monster Hunting Sect was really high.
People kept coming in batched and the number of dead bodies on the ground kept increasing, there were all types of people coming out some had innate traits then some had special physiques. there was even one low-rank alchemist and inscription master working as guest elders in the sect, as soon as they saw the slaughter they tried to surrender and swear their loyalty to Rex but they all got slaughtered without exception.
Swear loyalty? They didn't hesitate even for one second before abandoning the sect behind them which took care of them for years so it was just wishful thinking for them to swear their loyalty to someone else.
Rex was getting bored so he started to collect the dead bodies and put them in his inventory, others were confused by his action but because of his cold temperament, they dare not ask his name directly much less question his actions.
"Who dares to be impudent here?" A deafening shout came from inside the sect then an old man with white hairs came to the entrance door and started floating in the air.
'Looks like it's time for the boss fight,' Rex stretched his muscles while checking the cultivation base of the old man, the information he got from the corpse earlier was indeed correct, the old man or the sect master of Monster Hunting Sect was at Golden Core 2nd stage.
Rex looked at the short old man, the old man was wearing a long black robe that even covered his toes, it looked like he was afraid of exposing his pure body to others, he had wrinkles all over his face, white hair was growing out around his head but the center was bald, the bald head's surface was shining like the old man was just having an oil massage before coming here and coupled with the white hair of irregular length that was swaying with the air, he looked a little funny.
[Hey Rex, doesn't it looks like he is growing sea moss on his head.]
Rex almost lost his balance and fell to the ground when he heard it.
'Little Rose, are you affected by netizen virus?' (Rex)
[What does it have to do with the sea moss on his infertile head.]
Rex didn't argue further and looked at the old man who was observing the bloody battlefield. Rex had picked up all the corpses but the soil dyed red by their blood was still there.
"Are you the one who did it?" The old man asked with a twisted look on his face.
After obtaining the knowledge of soul arrays and soul seals coupled with his soul cultivation he had several ways to harm his opponent's soul and delay them even he can't defeat them.
The old man looked at him with a frown.
Everyone grew anxious when they saw that the battle between two strong powerhouses was about to unfold. Whether it was Aiden, Fred, Jiang Shuang, or any other person… they dare not be negligent, they all retreated back to giving those two enough space to fight.
Rex expression under the mast became serious, he was ready to attack anytime. The old man was also staring at him like a leopard waiting for the right moment to attack, just at this time the old man's eyebrows mover then he turned around and…. fled.
Everyone "…"
'Is it some new kind of strategy?' Rex followed behind but he wasn't rash and maintained a safe distance.
[hmm… indeed he is probably plotting to sneak attack when you get too close to him.]
When the old man saw that Rex was able to keep up with his speed he quickly increased his speed.
'Dammit… now that all my subordinates have died, I have no value for the Black Scorpion Sect, they will probably send someone to take my head and the statue the second they get new of the destruction of the sect if I spent time-fighting all these people here then I won't be able to escape in time,' The old man thought.
'What a cunning old man, he is even increasing his speed to fool me, his skill in scheming is too high,' Rex concluded.
[Indeed, the old man is too shrewd, whether it's his body language or facial expression all his actions look too real, if the situation wasn't that obvious then I won't even believe that he is acting.]
Rex didn't believe that a Golden Core cultivator would act so cowardly and just when he didn't even reveal his cultivation base.
If the old man knew what the two of them were thinking, he would be very tempted to take out his shoes off and slam them on the face of these two shameless people, well Rex would probably need to take Rose's part of beating too.
Scheming skill is too high my ass, I just love my life… he would say.
After chasing for a while Rex wasn't able to hold back.
'If I kept chasing him then I don't know where he would take me, there might be an ambush ahead or he may be very cautious and taking me to the territory of one of his helpers to get rid of me,' Rex thought then decided to attack.
Rex raised his hand towards the fleeing old man.
'Cursed Bomb' (Rex)
Suddenly a black sphere got condensed in front of his palm then shot out at the old man at the speed of sound.
Cursed Bomb was the Yin version of the Holy Bomb. In the lower realm, the Holy Bomb was Rex's most costly but also most powerful attack which helps him to easily deal with the fleeing elders of the Puppet Sect. Holy Bomb was like a sphere made of highly compressed light element Qi while the Cursed Bomb belonged to the dark side.
The old man was increasing his speed to break free from Rex's chase suddenly felt his back tingling. he quickly turned around and execute his attack to counter the Cursed Bomb.
'Heaven Suppressing Palm'
An Illusory palm came out of the old man's hand and rushed towards the Cursed Bomb, the propertied of illusory pall looked similar to the 'Angry Elephant Palm Technique' Rex got from Ye Ying but this technique had the difference of heaven and earth when the stability of illusory palm and its destructive power was taken in consideration.
The old man was very confident in his attack power so after he launched the attack he didn't wait to see the obvious result and turn to flee again.
…Booomm...
Just at this time, the old man heard the sound of an explosion, and a black cloud appeared out of nowhere and engulfed him.
The old man hurriedly stopped his breathe and flew out of the range of the black cloud. If it was a normal person the black smoke would be absorbed by their skin and started to corrode their body dealing damage over time but the old man was at a higher cultivation base so this type of attack won't deal much of damage against him.
The old looked at Rex in disbelief he didn't think Rex was so strong.
'I used 80% of my strength in that attack but it could still not completely suppress his attack, on top of that he is young so he should belong to a powerful faction or family so if I kill him and the news goes out then Black Scorpion Sect won't be the only one chasing me.
The only solution is to kill him and the everyone with him, the news will leak sooner or later anyway but if I kill them right now then it will delay the news for a while which should be enough for me to escape to a faraway place,' The old man thought with a hint of murderous intent rising in his eyes.
The old man took out two long whips like blades from his storage ring, the weapon looked like a soft sword but it was long like a whip.
He didn't wait for another second and attacked as soon as the weapon was taken out. The old man swung both the blades towards Rex.
..Swwissh….Swiisshhhh….
Normally the whip blades weren't long enough to reach Rex but they extended in length the second the attack was executed.
Rex instinctively bent rightwards at an angle which should not be possible with a normal human body's flexibility to dodge the attack but the trajectory of the blades was very weird after he dodged the first blade endpoint and was about to dodge the second blade, just at this time his Spider-Sense kicked in again and he realized that the first blade's trajectory that he had just dodged has changed and now it targeted his back.
Rex knew it but he couldn't dodge because if he did then the second blade would pierce his vitals and he would then lose more HP.
'Diamond Shell' (Rex)
Several small purple hexagonal shield appeared and formed a big shield behind his back.
…Crack…pu..chi…
The tip of the blade pierced through the shield and dug inside Rex's shoulder, the old man quickly retracted the blade from Rex's back after it left its mark.
Both Rex and the old man looked at each other in shock.
'Even though it's a spirit weapon but how could it have pierced my defense that easily, to be able to beak my defense like that...I assume it should be at least a middle-grade spirit weapon,' Rex thought as he looked at the two silver whip blades in the old man's hand.
'How could it happen? even if he is a body cultivator it should have pierced through his whole body, just what type of armor is he wearing, but his luck ends here now that my blades have touched his blood... I have already won hehe..' The old man thought while grinning at Rex.
Rex didn't understand his meaning at first but he soon came to realize it.
[Alert! harmful substances detected…..]
[Reverse Engineer talent is active….]
[Analyzing…..]
[Poison resistance skill is active….]
[Auto-countering...]
[Ultra Healthy Body ability is active...]
[Calculating the harming agent subduing time…..]
[Analyzing complete]
[It would take 03 seconds to fully counter the poison.]
[01]
[00]
'It was over just like that,' Rex felt little bad for the old man considering how many ways his body had to counter such poison.
[Due to the effect of the talent Reverse Engineering, you have successfully obtained the recipe of the ]
When Rex obtained the recipe of the poison and the analysis report, he also obtained all the information related to the effects of the poison and the way it works was also obtained by him.
Rex suddenly clenched his heart and fell to the ground, just to make sure everything looks natural he even bit his gums to cough out some blood, although the old man couldn't see Rex's expression behind the mask but he could still see the blood dripping from the bottom corner of the mask.
"You..bastard what did you..do?" Rex looked at the old man in disbelief.
"Hahaha… don't struggle it's useless to fight against my Heart Corroding Poison. You have talent but a brat like you who is still wet behind years shouldn't have provoked this old man," The old man laughed as he landed on the ground and walked towards Rex with a sneer.
"You evil old man… where is your..cough… pride as a Golden Core stage expert.., cough… you should have fought..with me fair and square," Rex said in an unwilling tone as he raised his trembling hand and grabbed the corner of the old man's long black robe.
"Fair and square? haha… do you think this is a game for you rich second generation kid who left their life until now based on your family's wealth and power, it's a life and death battle… everything is fair here as long as you win take it as the last lesson from this old man, it will help you live longer in your next life" The old man said with a sneer as he raised the whip blade in his hand to end Rex's life.
"Well, you are actually….right" Rex said in an unwavering tone.
"Huh?" The old man felt the change in Rex's tone.
Just when the old man was getting a bad feeling, Rex released the old man's rob and grabbed his right leg.
'Nebula Hell's Flame + Frozen Earth Bind + Holy Bind + Water Prison + Wind Suppression,' (Rex)
Rex executed his pre-planned skill combo in the next second.
Monster Hunting Sect focused on quantity rather than quality, they easily accepted new disciples without any hard trial or building their loyalty that's why the number of people in Monster Hunting Sect was really high.
