As Chen Qiao's hand brushed over the Storage Ring, a pitch-black pill suddenly appeared in his palm.
The pill was only the size of a pearl, but it was filled with an extremely strange energy.
Chen Qiao looked at the pill in his hand, hesitation flashing in his eyes before being replaced by determination. He swallowed the black pill in one gulp.
Seeing this, Aotian couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly. Wasn't it a bit foolish to take a pill at such a time?
It was known that while some pills could heal injuries, they required a quiet place to refine their medicinal power. Otherwise, not only would they fail to heal, but one could also fall into madness due to external disturbances.
However, Chen Qiao chose to do the opposite and took the pill at this moment. Wasn't he giving others an opportunity?
But in the next moment, Aotian's expression suddenly changed drastically.
After swallowing the pill, Chen Qiao's originally pale face instantly regained its color. His previously weak aura suddenly surged with vitality. Clearly, Chen Qiao's injuries had improved significantly.
Niu Geng exclaimed in shock upon witnessing Chen Qiao's transformation:
"Impossible! How can there be a pill with such powerful healing abilities in this world?!"
Aotian was also greatly shaken. After taking the pill, Chen Qiao didn't even need to refine its power; his injuries healed directly.
This undoubtedly indicated that the pill he swallowed was extraordinarily terrifying; calling it heaven-defying would not be an exaggeration. If news spread that Azure Cloud Sect possessed such a pill, countless people would flock to Azure Cloud Sect.
After all, possessing this pill was equivalent to indirectly grasping a second chance at life.
However, Chen Qiao's heart was filled with rage. This pill was given to him by his father, and because of that, he knew just how terrifying its side effects could be.
Although this strange pill could heal his injuries in an instant, it could also very likely cause his martial arts achievements to be permanently halted.
Because this pill consumed his potential to recover from his injuries.
The more Chen Qiao thought about it, the more pain he felt in his heart. His eyes unknowingly turned red, filled with resentment as he stared at Aotian and said, "I want both of you to die today; only then can I barely compensate for my losses!"
Aotian was slightly taken aback, glancing at Chen Qiao's now unscathed body, a thoughtful expression flashing in his eyes.
Clearly, this pill had considerable side effects. However, that was to be expected; if the pill truly had no side effects, it would be hard to believe.
"Tch, even at your peak, you couldn't defeat my boss. What good is it that you've healed now?" Niu Geng said dismissively.
Upon hearing this, a sinister glint flashed in Chen Qiao's eyes. He then continued to reach toward his Storage Ring.
Aotian was momentarily stunned by the sight, and an ominous premonition began to spread from deep within his heart.
"Whoosh."
At that moment, a fiery red whip appeared in Chen Qiao's hand.
This whip seemed to be made of fiery red scales, and it looked as if flames were burning on its surface.
Seeing this whip, Aotian was startled and then felt a familiar sensation ripple through his heart.
"This is... the Fire Cloud Whip?"
Aotian clearly remembers that during the Aotian Family Annual Meeting, when he fought against Aoling, the latter used a whip that looked exactly like this one.
According to Aoling, this long whip is called the Fire Cloud Whip and is classified as a Medium-Grade Treasure.
Since it was the most powerful weapon Aotian had encountered at that time, he remembers its appearance very well.
Of course, calling it the most powerful might be somewhat misleading. Whether it was the Dragon Slayer Dagger that Aotian encountered on his way to the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone or the Heaven Devouring Seal he had tamed, their power far exceeded that of the Fire Cloud Whip.
It was just that at this moment, Aotian was still weak, so in his perception, even the Dragon Slayer Dagger or the Heaven Devouring Seal might not be much stronger than the Fire Cloud Whip.
The main reason was that Aotian could not fully unleash the power of the Heaven Devouring Seal. If one day he were to fully discover its power, it would surely be earth-shattering.
This is akin to two children holding a kitchen knife and a missile. Although the missile's power is far greater than that of the kitchen knife, the children cannot use it at all. Thus, in their perception, they naturally believe that the kitchen knife is more powerful than the missile.
Returning to the main topic, when Aotian mentioned the name of the fiery red whip, Chen Qiao was slightly taken aback and then sneered:
"I didn't expect you to have some knowledge."
Holding the Fire Cloud Whip in his hand, Chen Qiao felt much braver. When Azure Cloud Sect Master Azure Maple forged the Fire Cloud Whip, two whips were created.
One was taken by Aoling, while the other remained in Chen Qiao's hands.
Even with this Medium-Grade Treasure, Chen Qiao still did not dare to relax or underestimate his opponents in any way.
Previously, underestimating the young man before him had caused him to lose his opportunity, leaving him no time to even use the Fire Cloud Whip. In the end, he lost his martial arts achievements because of it.
Therefore, Chen Qiao dared not show any signs of negligence at this moment and regarded Aotian as a formidable opponent.
Aotian's expression also became extremely serious. He did not dare to underestimate the power of a Medium-Grade Treasure.
The power of the Fire Cloud Whip, when wielded by Chen Qiao, would undoubtedly be much stronger than when Aoling used it. After all, Aoling had only been at the Innate Realm back then, and she naturally could not fully unleash the power of a Medium-Grade Treasure.
However, Chen Qiao was different; in the hands of a Spirit Realm Martial Artist, the power of a Medium-Grade Treasure would be brought to its fullest potential.
Seeing Chen Qiao take out the Fire Cloud Whip, Niu Geng's expression quickly turned grave as well. From that long whip, he sensed a strong sense of danger.
"Roar!"
Perhaps worried about any unexpected developments from Aotian, Niu Geng decided not to hold back anymore. A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from within him, shaking the surroundings.
Upon sensing Niu Geng's suddenly surging aura, Chen Qiao's expression changed dramatically. He did not expect that this seemingly honest and straightforward guy was also a Human Spirit Realm martial artist.
Chen Qiao could feel the dangerous aura emanating from Niu Geng, which was even comparable to Aotian's.
This was indeed a tricky character!
Damn it, is Xuantian Academy really this abnormal? Are there so many Human Spirit Realm martial artists there? Chen Qiao couldn't help but curse inwardly.
The four young men saw Niu Geng's suddenly surging aura and their expressions changed drastically.
Then, the four of them exchanged glances, as if they had made a decision, and nodded simultaneously.
"Great Protector, we'll take care of this guy. We'll do our utmost to hold him back!" one of the young men said resolutely to Chen Qiao.
Clearly, these youths understood that the current situation was not optimistic for them. The Great Protector was already struggling against one opponent; how could he face two warriors with Human Spirit Realm strength at the same time?
Thus, they resolutely decided to hold back Niu Geng. As long as the Great Protector could defeat that kid, there would still be a chance to turn the tide in this battle.
Chen Qiao's expression was also quite grim, but there was nothing he could do now; he could only hope that these four fellows could indeed hold back the seemingly simple-minded youth.
Seeing that the Great Protector agreed, the young man who had spoken earlier shouted, "Brothers, form the Azure Cloud Sunset Formation!"
The other three young men showed a determined look in their eyes and then assumed the same formation stance.
Suddenly, a terrifying surge of Heaven and Earth Profound Qi rushed into their bodies, and their momentum began to rise sharply.
Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Qiao couldn't help but sigh, but his expression quickly turned cold.
Chen Qiao understood that these four disciples of Azure Cloud Sect were likely facing dire consequences.
The Azure Cloud Sunset Formation was a forbidden formation of Azure Cloud Sect that should not be used unless absolutely necessary. This formation required at least four Innate Peak warriors to set it up simultaneously; otherwise, it could not be formed at all.
Moreover, although the Azure Cloud Sunset Formation can greatly enhance the strength of those who set it up, their vitality will gradually diminish over time until death.
In essence, this is a formation that exchanges life force for power.
"Today, you must die!" Chen Qiao shouted at Aotian, his body trembling uncontrollably.
Seeing Niu Geng being held back by the four who had activated the Azure Cloud Sunset Formation, Aotian understood that he would likely have to face Chen Qiao, who possessed a Medium-Grade Treasure, alone.
Aotian flicked his fingers and chuckled lightly, "Many want me dead, yet I am still living well!"
Chen Qiao took a deep breath, his chest heaving violently twice before he shouted fiercely, "Die!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the Fire Cloud Whip seemed to transform into a giant python, lunging toward Aotian's chest.
Aotian did not dare to be careless; he activated his Transformation Technique and pushed off the ground with great force. He then transformed into a divine dragon, elegantly dodging Chen Qiao's attack.
It must be said that after cultivating the remnants of the Stunning Dragon Movement Technique to a minor success, Aotian's speed and agility had significantly improved. Otherwise, he might not have been able to evade Chen Qiao's strike at this moment.
Seeing that the Fire Cloud Whip had missed Aotian, Chen Qiao felt a bit disappointed but did not become discouraged. If this young man were so easy to defeat, he wouldn't have been severely injured by him in the first place.
With a fierce shake of his wrist, Chen Qiao made the Fire Cloud Whip come alive, striking at Aotian's chest with an extremely cunning and vicious intent.
The sound of the long whip slicing through the air was particularly piercing, causing Aotian's heart to clench slightly.
Then, Aotian tilted his body slightly to avoid the thrust of the Fire Cloud Whip.
However, the Fire Cloud Whip seemed to transform into a large blade, sweeping horizontally toward Aotian.
Due to the proximity, Aotian found it impossible to evade. He could only hope that the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body's defense would withstand the attack from the Medium-Grade Treasure.
"Bang!"
The long whip struck Aotian's chest, instantly tearing his black clothing and revealing his fair skin underneath.
A crimson blood mark was left on that fair skin.
At this moment, Aotian felt a fiery pain in his chest, and the blood within him surged violently, leaving his face as pale as paper.
Seeing Aotian injured, Chen Qiao immediately revealed a sinister smile. Then, with a faster flick of his wrist, the long whip danced in the air like a giant dragon...
