With a loud pop, the head burst open like a watermelon. Many people were caught off guard and were splattered all over. Some unfortunate souls, overwhelmed by shock, even opened their mouths and swallowed some unpleasant substances.
Gagging sounds erupted in a chain reaction. Several spectators doubled over, retching in the audience.
Huang Baoshan wore an expression of helpless amusement, wondering why they had to endure this.
Suddenly, he noticed something was amiss. From the vomit emerged small dark cyan snakes, slithering out in droves. These little snakes looked familiar.
"I underestimated you!"
Zuo Ci leaned on his Nine-section Staff and broke through the air.
With another loud pop, the heads of the vomiting cultivators exploded, and emerald green poisonous snakes wriggled out from their shattered skulls, their eerie green pupils revealing a cunning human-like intelligence.
They raised their heads and opened their mouths in unison, spewing forth thick yellow smoke.
"More of this yellow smoke?" Zuo Ci sneered coldly. He had thought it was the venom of the Black Beetle, but it turned out to be the handiwork of Gu Lao Gui.
This yellow smoke was entirely composed of tiny Gu Chong Group creatures, each no larger than a sesame seed. These Gu Chong could infiltrate a person's orifices, draining their flesh and magical essence to nurture their kind. If they thrived, they would transform into these little snakes.
Each snake contained fragments of Gu Lao Gui's soul. As long as the Gu Chong survived, Gu Lao Gui would remain in an undying state.
This old man certainly knows how to scheme!
Zuo Ci struck the ground heavily with his Nine-section Staff. The power of Apricot Yellow conjured a strange array, trapping all the small snakes in place. This was the Forbidden Technique, Shen Tong, that came with the Nine-section Staff; once trapped, their power would be significantly weakened.
Given Zuo Ci's cultivation level, under Dao Dian, their power would be reduced by nine, and under Dao Dian, it would be reduced by five. It was almost a certain death situation.
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
The small snakes seemed to sense the danger and began to gather together, their mouths spewing increasingly dense Yellow Smoke.
Scatter!
Zuo Ci clenched his hand, and an Azure Wind Fan radiating Azure Jade Luster appeared in his palm. He aimed it at the spreading Yellow Smoke and gave it a fierce flap. A Dark Cyan tornado mixed with light yellow smoke surged toward the VIP Seats.
All the cultivators present at the auction were caught in the path of the tornado. The Azure Wind Fan was a trophy Zuo Ci had seized from Oni Yama. This item possessed both defensive and spell-rebounding effects, making it a perfect match with the Nine-section Staff—truly a divine artifact that combined offense and defense.
How bold!
Fellow Daoists, this man is dangerous; let’s strike together!
What ruthless methods! You won’t die a good death!
Is Bao Long Auction House trying to kill someone to silence them?
Brilliant spells erupted from the VIP Seats like dense smoke clouds, shooting toward Zuo Ci.
You are seeking your own death!
Zuo Ci grinned widely.
The Azure Wind Fan continued to be wielded in his hand. The reflection of spells through the Azure Wind Fan would grow stronger with the intensity of the spell; as long as the opponent had not yet broken through to the Tongjing realm, they would be unable to surpass the limits of the Azure Wind Fan.
The Azure Tornado loomed like a massive blade across the heavens and earth, swirling with unparalleled sharpness as it cleaved towards the crowd.
In an instant, those with lower cultivation levels were reduced to a mist of blood.
The Yellow Smoke, pulled by the tornado, began to thin out even further. The small snakes, each possessing low individual strength, were merely relying on the Yellow Smoke to display their ferocity.
As the Yellow Smoke diluted, its direction began to reverse.
You’re seeking death!
The two Twin Masters, who had come with a spectator's attitude, started to look increasingly grim. This guy was too domineering. Even they, as experts of Dao Dian, found themselves caught in the crossfire. The Yellow Smoke from Gu Lao Gui was something they dared not underestimate; this person had offended all the cultivators present.
Having offended them, then there was no need for any of you!
Zuo Ci stepped firmly on the ground, and the purple-black Wan Hun Fan soared into the air. Black Hands emerged from within the fan, seizing hold of the heads of those cultivators.
Those with low cultivation levels had their souls instantly pulled out and absorbed into the Wan Hun Fan.
With a swift motion, Zuo Ci wielded his Nine-section Staff like a sharp sword, shattering the heads of the small snakes.
As long as this area was sealed off and everyone within it was killed, that Old Guy would be unable to unleash any of his abilities!
Heavenly Essence and Earthly Spirit, Guardian Deity descend!
