Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Poison Scorpion Finger

As he finished speaking, Black Scorpion’s right foot lifted and stomped fiercely on the ground.

Suddenly, powerful torrents of True Qi burst out from within his body.

This was the formidable aspect of a Xuan Rank master.

Ancient Martial Cultivators at the Yellow Rank had a very limited control over their True Qi, which served merely as an auxiliary means in combat, primarily relying on the strength of their bodies.

But it was different for the Xuan Rank.

Upon reaching the Xuan Rank, Ancient Martial Cultivators underwent a qualitative improvement, with the ability to wield True Qi several times more substantial.

Therefore, once an Ancient Martial Cultivator reached the Xuan Rank, they could fully harness True Qi in battle.

One could fully utilize True Qi, while the other could only use it as aid.

The gap was immediately apparent, and this was the fundamental reason why Xuan Rank masters were stronger than those at the Yellow Rank.

Black Scorpion’s True Qi was of a deep purple hue, not belonging to any of the Five Elements True Qi.

The attributes of a cultivator’s True Qi were generally one of metal, wood, water, fire, or earth.

Of course, there were some exceptions, and this related to the Cultivation Technique the cultivator practiced.

The Cultivation Technique determined the attributes of the cultivator’s True Qi.

For example, Chen Feng’s True Qi, theoretically, was very special, having no attribute of its own, but could transform into any of the Five Elements through the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique.

Black Scorpion’s was similar due to his practice of the "Scorpion Poison Technique."

During cultivation, it required the collection of a large amount of Scorpion Poison.

The deep purple hue of Black Scorpion’s True Qi was precisely because it was intermixed with a great deal of Scorpion Poison.

This enhanced the lethality of the True Qi, creating an unpredictable threat in combat, where an opponent could be poisoned if they were not careful.

The abundant deep purple True Qi enveloped Black Scorpion, making his entire presence sinister.

Chen Feng looked at the True Qi surrounding Black Scorpion’s body and slightly furrowed his brow.

The chilling aura of that True Qi instinctively put him on high alert.

"Kid, take another of my moves!"

Black Scorpion said, extending the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and then with a focused thought.

Instantly, the deep purple True Qi surrounding his body began to gather towards his two fingers and then poured into them completely.

As the True Qi entered, the color of Black Scorpion’s fingers grew darker, and then began to shine with a purple glow, emitting a powerful aura.

"Poison Scorpion Finger!"

Black Scorpion uttered softly, raising his fingers that radiated deep purple light and jabbing them directly at Chen Feng.

This move was one of Black Scorpion’s more powerful killing techniques, filled with crisis and containing formidable might.

Beneath Xuan Rank, a touch meant certain death.

Even an Early Stage Xuan Rank expert had to treat it with the utmost caution, lest they too suffer grievous injury.

So, it was clear, after their previous exchange, that Black Scorpion was thoroughly provoked; this time, his attack carried a resolve to kill!

If it got out that he, a Xuan Rank Early Stage master, could not kill Chen Feng despite being a Yellow Rank Perfectionist after using two moves, how could he continue to mix in the world of assassins? He would lose all face!

Therefore, he no longer cared about the consequences, even if it meant using his killing move, he was determined to take Chen Feng’s life in one strike!

Facing this fierce move, Chen Feng knitted his brows.

He too sensed a threat emanating from this one finger.

Chen Feng, not daring to be careless, quickly circulated the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique, converting his True Qi into Earth Element True Qi and mobilizing it, forming a thick wall of earthy True Qi in front of him.

And just as the True Qi Wall took shape, Black Scorpion’s fingers struck.

"Buzz!"

The deep purple finger jabbed directly into the earthy True Qi Wall.

"Break for me!"

Black Scorpion gave a cold smile and roared aloud!

"Sssss!!"

Suddenly, Black Scorpion’s fingers emitted a deep purple glow, and a formidable might burst forth from the tips of his fingers.

"Crack!"

The True Qi Wall that was considered moderately sturdy unexpectedly developed a crack.

Following that, the crack gradually spread, and soon the entire True Qi Wall was riddled with cracks.

About another two seconds passed.

The whole True Qi Wall shattered directly, turning into fragments that filled the sky.

However, after shattering Chen Feng’s True Qi Wall, the purple light on Black Scorpion’s fingers also dimmed, no longer as intense as before.

Without the obstruction of the True Qi Wall, Black Scorpion’s finger headed straight for Chen Feng.

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and then directly mobilized his Earth Element True Qi, executing his cultivation technique.

Five Elements Eight Diagram Palm first form—Earth Element Palm!

With Chen Feng’s enhanced strength, his mastery of the first form had reached perfection.

So, he hardly exerted any effort and executed the Earth Element Palm.

A massive amount of Earth Element True Qi quickly converged in Chen Feng’s right palm, forming a mysterious symbol in the center of his palm, causing his right palm to emit a yellowish earthen glow.

Chen Feng did not hesitate and went directly for Black Scorpion’s Poison Scorpion Finger.

"Hmph, you still want to face me head-on? You’re courting death!"

Black Scorpion snorted coldly, his eyes filled with disdain.

Then, Black Scorpion’s Poison Scorpion Finger collided with Chen Feng’s Earth Element Palm.

Deep purple light met with the earthen yellow glow.

A "hum" sound was heard.

The two True Qi forces clashed violently, causing both Chen Feng’s and Black Scorpion’s bodies to tremble and their complexions to slightly change.

Right after, both of them couldn’t help but retreat several steps backward.

Black Scorpion retreated six steps before he could barely stabilize his stance.

And Chen Feng also retreated five steps.

It seemed that the two were evenly matched in this collision.

But one must know, Black Scorpion was an expert at the Xuan Rank Early Stage, a realm higher than Chen Feng.

With the advantage in realm and using his killing move, yet he only managed a draw against Chen Feng—this was nothing short of a huge humiliation for an expert at the Xuan Rank Early Stage!

At this moment, Black Scorpion’s face turned incredibly ugly, darker than the bottom of a pot!

"How is this possible, how can a Yellow Rank Perfection fellow withstand my Poison Scorpion Finger, this is impossible!"

Black Scorpion gritted his teeth and said with a sullen face.

"I told you, there will be many more surprises to come."

Chen Feng said with a faint smile.

"Hmph, don’t get cocky, I haven’t used my strongest move yet, and moreover, I’m not the only one who’s come this time!"

Black Scorpion snorted coldly, grinding his teeth as he spoke.

After that, he turned his head to look at the eleven assassins behind him and said, "Coordinate with me, attack together, and capture Chen Feng quickly!"

"At your command!"

The eleven assassins didn’t hesitate and nodded directly.

Seeing this, Black Scorpion turned back to look at Chen Feng and said, "Boy, this time, I’d like to see how you struggle!"

With those words, Black Scorpion gestured to the people behind him and said, "All of you, together with me, attack!"

After speaking, Black Scorpion was the first to rush toward Chen Feng.

The eleven assassins did not hesitate, following closely behind Black Scorpion, charging towards Chen Feng...
