Strongest War Emperor

Even someone as powerful as Zhuge Xian’Er couldn’t help but be startled by Shen Lang’s words. "Big Brother, do you mean that not only am I afflicted with this Black Crow Witchcraft, but someone also used it to place a Restriction on me? But I’ve checked countless times and found no sign of a Restriction... And the two Elder Ancestors from Blood Evil Island, Black and White Impermanence, didn’t notice it either..."

Shen Lang shook his head. "Although Black and White Impermanence from Blood Evil Island both have Emperor Martial Realm Cultivation, they clearly aren’t experts when it comes to Restriction Arrays."

"Whether it was them or you, you all must have noticed it. While the Black Crow Witchcraft is concentrated in your knee, faint, thread-like strands extend from it into your various meridians, even reaching your heart meridian. But you all must have assumed this was just the potency of the Black Crow Witchcraft, like a vengeful spirit clinging to you. You never realized that it’s actually an incomparably powerful Restriction."

"The ’Heaven and Earth Seal’ is one of the nine legendary ’Divine Prohibitions.’ It is a closely guarded secret of the Thousand Soul Hall, and its stealth and complexity far surpass ordinary Restrictions. It kills without a trace and is utterly vicious."

"Even within the Thousand Soul Hall, only a handful of people know of this Divine Prohibition. The one who injured you appears to be the disciple of a peerless expert from the hall... However, the ’Heaven and Earth Seal’ is explicitly forbidden by the Thousand Soul Hall. One must never use this vicious Restriction unless absolutely necessary..."

"The person who injured you not only used the Black Crow Witchcraft, but also used it to set up this Restriction. Their hatred for you must have reached an unimaginable level."

Zhuge Xian’Er’s gaze fell upon her own knee. Her lips moved a few times, and it was a while before she spoke. "Xian’Er understands."

Shen Lang sighed and said, "I have no intention of interfering in your personal affairs, but since someone has dealt you such a vicious blow, I absolutely will not let this matter rest!"

"On the other hand, a few of the elders from the Thousand Soul Hall once looked after me, so I can barely be considered a disciple of the hall. When I see someone misusing a Thousand Soul Hall Secret Skill to commit such an atrocity, I cannot simply ignore it."

"So, whether or not you tell me who did this, I will kill him!"

"A disciple of the Thousand Soul Hall!" Zhuge Xian’Er and Evil Song were both stunned.

The Thousand Soul Hall was a mysterious power on par with the War God Hall!

’Every time they thought Shen Lang’s identity or trump cards had been more or less revealed, they would discover that what he had shown... was still just the tip of the iceberg.’

Shen Lang didn’t explain. It would have been too complicated to explain anyway.

Back then, the War Emperor ruled the world, and all lands paid him homage. He studied the Secret Skills of the entire world. In addition to those from the Thousand Soul Hall and the Myriad Beasts Mansion, he even dabbled in the skills of the Divine Capital Nine Palaces, a faction that had almost never appeared in the world.

The War Emperor had even become sworn brothers with experts from many reclusive races, making them willingly share their clans’ Secret Techniques with him.

’However, all of this has to be kept secret, not just now, but likely forever...’

"Lord, about this Restriction and Voodoo in Miss Xian’Er..." Fine beads of sweat formed on Evil Song’s face as he stood to the side, his eyes filled with worry.

A Restriction like the "Heaven and Earth Seal"—its name alone was enough to know how formidable it was. Coupled with the fact that it came from the legendary Thousand Soul Hall and was cast using Black Crow Witchcraft, Evil Song couldn’t help but worry.

Shen Lang crouched down, looked at Xian’Er’s knee, and said, "Don’t worry. It’s just a bit troublesome... The person who set up this Restriction at most only learned the basics. And I happen to have a method that counters this type of energy-based toxin. That’s a silver lining in all this."

"The last time we were at the Profound Dao Sect, I already placed a counter-Restriction on Xian’Er for this ’Heaven and Earth Seal.’ After all this time, my Restriction has been operating for a while and has already had some effect on the ’Heaven and Earth Seal.’"

As he said this, Shen Lang activated his Silver Eyes of Truth again and said, "Xian’Er, close your eyes, guard your heart meridian, and contract your Divine Soul."

"Yes." Zhuge Xian’Er closed her eyes as instructed.

"I need to seal some of the acupoints on your body. Do not resist!"

Shen Lang rose to his feet, his figure becoming a whirlwind that spun around Zhuge Xian’Er. His hands moved like the wind, continuously tapping points on her body.

One after another, streams of Spirit Light entered Zhuge Xian’Er’s body.

Zhuge Xian’Er, who had been concentrating with her eyes closed, felt her eyelashes tremble and her delicate brows furrow slightly, as if she were in some kind of pain.

However, this strong-willed girl could even endure the agony of the Black Crow Witchcraft. The pain from Shen Lang breaking the Restriction seemed unable to shake her spirit.

Shen Lang tapped most of the acupoints on Zhuge Xian’Er’s body, including several sensitive areas, which made her face grow increasingly red.

After tapping the final acupoint, Shen Lang stood firm behind Zhuge Xian’Er, pressed his right palm against her back, and abruptly released a surging torrent of Spiritual Power!

PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!

A few soft sounds were heard. From the spot where Shen Lang’s right palm pressed against Zhuge Xian’Er’s back, a dark and strange aura immediately emerged. Black qi, like a roaming dragon, suddenly shot out and coiled toward Shen Lang’s arm!

At the same time, from multiple acupoints on Zhuge Xian’Er’s back, strange black qi also erupted one after another!

The black qi seemed to have a consciousness of its own, instantly coiling over with unimaginable speed!

It was like a supremely powerful force that had been suppressed for a long time, suddenly bursting out like a coiled spring, giving no one a chance to even dodge!

"Lord!" Evil Song shrieked in alarm.

This was the power of the Restriction combined with the Black Crow Witchcraft.

Even if one knew how to break the "Heaven and Earth Seal" Restriction, the moment it was broken, they would have to come into contact with the Black Crow Witchcraft!

This substance, one of the Ten Extremes Poisons, was something even Emperor Martial Realm experts would avoid at all costs. Who would dare to touch it?

To break the Restriction, one had to make physical contact and infuse Spiritual Power. But this Restriction was extremely sensitive to Spiritual Power and would immediately counterattack upon detecting any foreign infusion!

The Black Crow Witchcraft would immediately follow the trail of Spiritual Power, seeping out from the poisoned person’s body and rushing towards the one breaking the Restriction!

Unless their Cultivation was at the Emperor Martial Realm Fifth Heaven or above, an ordinary expert would be completely helpless against it!

At this moment, seeing the snake-like Black Crow Witchcraft shoot out, Shen Lang, who had already calculated everything, showed no sign of panic.

The Black and White Qi was already enveloping his arm. The very instant the black qi shot out from Xian’Er’s body, the prepared Black and White Qi suddenly swirled, forming a vortex like a black hole!

In that instant, all of the Black Crow Witchcraft—not just what was erupting near his palm, but also what was erupting from the other acupoints—converged toward this black hole and was devoured without a trace!

Within Zhuge Xian’Er’s meridians and Mystic Gates, a spiderweb-like network of Spiritual Lines formed by the Voodoo, invisible to the naked eye, was spread throughout.

But due to the massive loss of Energy, the Restriction instantly became unstable!

The person who set up the Restriction had only intended to use it to make the Black Crow Witchcraft overflow and poison the one breaking it.

But under the power of Shen Lang’s Star Absorption Technique, the Black Crow Witchcraft couldn’t stop at all. Instead, like a long-dammed flood that had found an outlet, it surged ceaselessly toward the black hole formed by the Tai Chi Diagram!

Shen Lang’s right palm continued to absorb the Black Crow Witchcraft. His left palm landed on Zhuge Xian’Er’s shoulder with a sudden jolt, and a surge of Spiritual Power instantly poured out!

That surging Spiritual Power was as fast as the wind, rushing toward several specific Mystic Gates.

"Shang Qu, Shen Yu, Fan Gate, Life Palace... Break! Break! Break!"

Amidst Shen Lang’s low shout, the key points of the dense, web-like Restriction were severed one by one by the Spiritual Power he sent out!

Once the core of the Restriction was severed, it was like a huge machine that had lost its chain, becoming completely paralyzed.

At that moment, Zhuge Xian’Er, who was sensing everything within her body, suddenly felt a release. It was an indescribable feeling of comfort.

It was as if an invisible pressure had been completely lifted, and every pore in her body was free...

And with the Restriction gone, all the Black Crow Witchcraft in Zhuge Xian’Er’s body, except for the portion in her knee, flowed along her meridians and converged toward Shen Lang’s right palm!

In just the blink of an eye, even the Black Crow Witchcraft that had been eroding Zhuge Xian’Er’s heart meridian was completely absorbed by the Tai Chi Diagram!

Even someone as strong-willed as Zhuge Xian’Er couldn’t suppress the wild joy in her heart and opened her eyes!

Shen Lang remained silent. He released his right hand and gently pressed his left palm on Zhuge Xian’Er’s shoulder, infusing a stream of pure Life Spiritual Power into her!

"This... This is!"

Zhuge Xian’Er, who had just opened her eyes, was shocked as she felt the life force contained within that Life Spiritual Power.

This Life Spiritual Power was something Shen Lang had converted after absorbing the Life Spiritual Liquid. Even after more than a year, he still had very little of it.

This substance was so heaven-defying that to say it could bring the dead to life and grow flesh on bones was an understatement.

Back then, before Shen Lang’s Chaos Divine Body had awakened, his meridians were rigid and his Pill Sea wouldn’t form. But after obtaining the Life Spiritual Liquid, he underwent a Purification of Essence and Marrow, and his entire body was practically transformed.

And back when Nalan Ziyun was at death’s door at the hands of Yuwen Huaji, she was left with only a single breath, sustained by Master Kong Jing of the Ruyi Buddha Sect. It was at that critical moment that Zuo Wentian offered the last few wisps of his Life Spiritual Power, which ultimately saved Nalan Ziyun.

Zhuge Xian’Er was experienced and knowledgeable. Moreover, she was an expert with a King Martial Realm Second Heaven Cultivation.

Sensing the abnormality of this stream of Spiritual Power, how could she not understand that this was a tremendous, heaven-sent opportunity?

She immediately closed her eyes again, focusing her entire mind on that Life Spiritual Power.

The Life Spiritual Power roamed through her body like a wandering dragon. Wherever it passed, the meridians and Mystic Gates, which had been ravaged and corroded by the Black Crow Witchcraft, began to frantically repair themselves!

Even a Mystic Gate that she, at the King Martial Realm Second Heaven, had been unable to break through, was shattered as easily as if it were made of paper under the impact of this Life Spiritual Power!
