Chapter 2272: Chapter 2319: Poison of Saint Destruction

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis shook his head, his eyes apathetic. “I thought too highly of him, after all.”

SWISH!

The spear, stained with Jiang Fan’s blood, shot back. The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis reached out and caught it, gripping it firmly in his palm once more.

His electrifying gaze swept across all directions, finally surveying the battlefield. It was during this sweep that he suddenly detected a faint, obscure ripple. His cold eyes narrowed slightly.

Not far from the blood mist that Jiang Fan had turned into, the Void under his gaze began to ripple unusually. It was like a gust of wind lifting a thin layer of folds in a curtain.

Blood energy erupted in the eyes of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis. Two terrifying beams of light shot from his gaze, shattering that patch of the Void. A loud bell toll rang out as a massive, snow-white bell materialized from the shattered Void.

“You didn’t die after all!” the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis said, his gaze piercing. As he spoke, the spear in his hand let out a destructive, trembling hum. “Then I’ll just kill you again!”

He raised his wrist, preparing to throw the Blood-colored Long Spear.

But suddenly, a long-forgotten, agonizing pain flared up from his palm. He looked down, only to see that the hand gripping the Blood-colored Long Spear was rotting away into black, bloody mud at a visible rate!

He was the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis, one of the few surviving ancient monsters in the world! The last time he was wounded this deeply was by the Tao Slave Filthy Blood that Jiang Fan had obtained from who knows where. However, he didn’t even furrow his brow. There wasn’t even the slightest flicker of pain in his eyes.

He stared expressionlessly at his spear and the remnants of Jiang Fan’s blood on it, a look of realization dawning in his eyes. “There is poison in the blood. No wonder you refused to use those two Killing Devices. Your previous tricks were only meant to force me to use the Blood Spear.”

Jiang Fan stood inside the Immortal King’s Undying Bell, his expression cold and detached.

The most threatening aspect of the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis was that terrifying Blood Spear. In the Hundred Realms of All Heavens, very few could block it. However, his greatest weakness was also the Blood Spear. From what Jiang Fan had observed, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis never let go of the spear unless he was throwing it. And this gave Jiang Fan the opportunity to use a lethal Killing Device! Namely, the residual poison from the Sumeru Divine Prison that had once poisoned experts in the Saint Realm!

Jiang Fan speculated that this must be the poison bestowed by the Daqian Crown Prince. Although many years had passed and the remaining toxicity was a far cry from its prime, it still possessed a terrifying might that a Sage could not resist.

Therefore, before deducing that the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis would throw the Blood Spear, he summoned his poison avatar and hung the bottle of deadly poison on its body. When the Blood Spear shattered the poison avatar, it also shattered the bottle, mixing the highly toxic substance with the blood mist. Ultimately, it stained the Blood Spear.

SIZZLE!

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s hand entirely rotted into black mud in an instant. Furthermore, it rapidly spread from his hand toward his body, looking quite similar to how the Shadow Black Snake’s deadly poison had killed the Giant King.

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s gaze remained unwavering as he gave a soft, cold snort. “A petty trick.”

SNAP!

His shoulder suddenly detached, and the entire rotting arm fell away from his body. Immediately after, the blood moon beneath his feet churned up a stream of bloody water, condensing at the stump to form a brand-new arm!

With this blood moon, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis was practically in an invincible position. He tugged on the reins, driving his horse toward Jiang Fan, and said apathetically, “Even without the Blood Spear, I can still kill you. Not even a World Artifact can protect you!”

But just as the White Bone Warhorse took a step, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s body suddenly swayed. He looked down, and a ripple of emotion finally appeared in his eyes that had been indifferent for eons.

He realized that a pinhole-sized black spot had appeared on his chest. Threads of black mud were oozing out from it. Then, another one appeared nearby, followed by a second, a third… Black spots sprouted from every pore like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, with countless streams of black mud gushing outward.

The Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis raised his newly condensed hand, only to find that it was still rotting! Severing his arm and regenerating it hadn’t isolated the deadly poison! A trace of shock appeared in his eyes for the very first time.

“What kind of poison is this?” His voice trembled, though it was unclear whether it was from fear or the rot taking hold of his vocal cords.

Jiang Fan remained silent, summoning all the scattered Array Stones around him to tightly protect himself. The Immortal King’s Undying Bell, coupled with eighteen Array Stones, formed his strongest possible defense. His eyes flashed with a sharp light. Just as he had expected, how could a deadly poison capable of killing experts in the Saint Realm be easily evaded by merely severing a limb to survive? All he needed to do now was prevent the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s dying counterattack!

Under his watchful gaze, the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis rapidly rotted away. Endless amounts of black mud flowed out from the cracks of his black iron armor like quicksand, emitting an incredibly thick, foul stench.

“Jiang Fan!” the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis opened his mouth and let out a furious roar!

This was the first time he had felt genuine anger since his grudge with Jiang Fan began. He simply couldn’t accept that he would fall at the hands of a mere Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator! But just as he shouted those two words, endless black mud gushed from his mouth. Following that, his eyes rotted into two hollow sockets.

“You… court… death…” the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis let out a venomous, raspy voice. Forcing his arm up, he raised the Blood Spear and hurled it at Jiang Fan!

The might of the Blood Spear defied space and time. Jiang Fan didn’t even have a chance to react before he was struck by its terrifying, world-destroying blow!

CLANG CLANG CLANG!

The Immortal King’s Undying Bell let out an unprecedentedly rapid series of tolls. This was the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s angry dying strike, far surpassing his previous attacks. The colossal reverberation shook Jiang Fan within the bell, causing agonizing pain throughout his body and making his soul feel as though it were being ripped apart.

But it didn’t end there. The Blood Spear’s terrifying destructive power permeated through the bell. Under this destructive force, the eighteen Array Stones shattered one by one!

BANG BANG BANG!

In an instant, all the Array Stones were completely destroyed! Every hair on Jiang Fan’s body stood on end! Even in his strongest defensive state, he still couldn’t block the Chaotic Ancient Blood Marquis’s dying counterattack?

Without hesitation, he took out all his remaining Water of Life and swallowed it in a single gulp. The next moment, the destructive power blasted his body apart. He was on the verge of turning into a mist of blood.

Wisps of milky-white light forcibly bound his body back together, while the massive life force rapidly healed his wounds. At the same time, the Ancestor Ring flickering behind Jiang Fan’s head continuously activated the Second Domain and the Third Domain. As he healed, he simultaneously absorbed the damage, converting it to replenish his lost power.

Even so, Jiang Fan still felt a terror invading every cell in his body. He was like an ant dropped into a vat of boiling oil, exerting every ounce of his strength to fight against the destruction. This sense of powerlessness chilled him to his very core! This was the closest he had ever been to death, bar none!

The next instant, the destructive force once again shattered his yet-to-heal body, but the moonlight energy forcefully glued his form back together, while the Water of Life continuously restored his life force. This combination granted Jiang Fan a fleeting moment to catch his breath.

When the echoing destructive force surged over him again, the two powers continued to counteract its effects. Just like this, his body was repeatedly destroyed and Reshaped, leaving him teetering back and forth on the brink of death. At this moment, he was like a candle in the wind. If even a single extra strand of force struck him, he would be instantly reduced to ashes!
