Chapter 1298: Chapter 0743: Fighting Poison with Poison_2 Chapter 1298: Chapter 0743: Fighting Poison with Poison_2 The momentum unbroken, the heart immortal.

Qi Tian scratched his head, having originally thought that by chopping off Manager Chen’s head, Manager Chen would definitely die. He really hadn’t expected that the living dead were so difficult to kill, almost like a phoenix.

Staring at the heart for a while, a light bulb went off in Qi Tian’s mind. Manager Chen’s heart was indeed strong, but that didn’t mean he was helpless. Let’s not forget, he himself possessed a heart capable of dissipating powerful spiritual power. He had suffered greatly before that heart. He could display it, and have a heart confrontation with Manager Chen’s heart, then fight poison with poison. Perhaps he could crush Manager Chen’s heart, extinguishing its momentum, and afterwards, he could use the flying sword to kill it.

Thinking this, Qi Tian hurriedly took out the black heart. Probably due to like repels like, as soon as the black heart emerged, it sensed the momentum emanating from Manager Chen’s heart. Without any need for Qi Tian’s explicit instruction, the black heart unleashed all of its spiritual power in an outburst, as if it had seen its mortal enemy, rolling towards Manager Chen’s heart with oppressive force.

How could Manager Chen’s heart be willing to be bullied? The momentum it released clashed head-on with the black heart’s spiritual power. Immediately, an invisible, intense battle erupted within the Outer Palaces.

Qi Tian couldn’t see it with his eyes, nor feel it with his Divine Sense, but through the sensory function of the Heavenly Dao Engine, he could clearly capture every moment of the explosive battle. The ferocity of the fight was unprecedented.

In the beginning, the black heart was the one taking the initiative, catching Manager Chen’s heart by surprise. However, Manager Chen’s heart responded quickly, and after a short time, it stabilized the situation. Then, relying on its slightly superior strength over the black heart, it used its momentum to counterattack.

During the fight, both sides’ spiritual power and momentum were continuously consumed. A large amount of pure energy vanished in this process, while parts were devoured by the other side.

After battling for a while, the black heart, as the weaker party, gradually began to falter and started to retreat. However, as an entity specialized in spiritual power attacks, even if the situation turned unfavorable, its retreat was slow and pressured rather than a complete rout.

As the master of the black heart, Qi Tian naturally couldn’t stand idly by and watch the black heart be defeated. He immediately stood not far from the black heart, infusing it with the Heavenly Dao Engine fuel he had just acquired from the Heavenly Dao Engine’s storage chamber.

The fuel of the Heavenly Dao Engine was an extremely pure form of ultimate energy that any cultivator could use. Initially reluctant, the black heart became greedy upon realizing what the fuel was, absorbing every last drop of the Heavenly Dao Engine fuel Qi Tian provided it.

The black heart, which had been retreating due to heavy consumption, received a sudden infusion of powerful energy, sweeping away its weaknesses. It regained its strength, while on the other hand, Manager Chen’s heart was also heavily depleted but didn’t receive any replenishment. As a result of this shift, Manager Chen’s heart, which had been advantageous, suddenly felt a loss of strength and began to be crushed by the black heart.

The collapse of Manager Chen’s heart was irretrievable. Like a tiger breaking free from its cage, the black heart pursued and beat Manager Chen’s heart mercilessly. In almost the blink of an eye, the momentum emitted by Manager Chen’s heart was swept away. The change in circumstance was so rapid, Qi Tian had not anticipated it.

Just as Qi Tian was about to praise the black heart and then put it away, he was shocked to find that after defeating Manager Chen’s heart, the black heart did not stop there, but continued to charge forward and pounced directly onto Manager Chen’s heart.

The black heart throbbed wildly, and it seemed as if Manager Chen’s heart was being drawn in, continuously leaking a black liquid from its vessels, trickling like a stream, into the black heart.

The sight before Qi Tian greatly startled him, as he still hadn’t figured out whether Manager Chen’s heart possessed the parasitic fusion feature of a phoenix. If so, the black heart’s action could potentially plant a seed of disaster and ultimately drag him down.

He must prevent this from happening, so Qi Tian issued a forceful command, demanding the black heart to stop absorbing the energy from Manager Chen’s heart immediately, right now.

Although the black heart was somewhat reluctant, it could not defy Qi Tian’s order and had to temporarily halt its actions.

Qi Tian remained vigilant, in case Manager Chen’s heart’s energy and blood had already contaminated the black heart. He directed the black heart to stay away from Manager Chen’s heart, then held still while he observed it. He locked onto the black heart tightly with the sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine, preparing various contingency plans for its possible contamination, ready to intervene at any moment.

The black heart obediently stayed still, and after observing for a while, Qi Tian noticed that there were no anomalies. More importantly, through the sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine, he could clearly see that the blood and energy from Manager Chen’s heart, which the black heart had absorbed, were digested and assimilated in the past moments. Not only had the strength of the black heart improved, but also its essence had not changed and retained its original color, as sensed by the Heavenly Dao Engine.

This confirmed for Qi Tian that the black heart could indeed absorb Manager Chen’s blood and energy for enhancement without any negative impact. Overjoyed, Qi Tian released the constraints on the black heart and pointed at Manager Chen’s heart, allowing the black heart to freely digest and absorb it.

Overwhelmed with joy, the black heart rushed towards Manager Chen’s heart and hovered above, absorbing it until only a thin layer of skin was left, rendering it worthless.

Qi Tian continued to lock onto the black heart with the sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine to prevent any accidents. Fortunately, the whole process remained calm, and the black heart did not mutate from absorbing too much of Manager Chen’s heart’s blood and energy. It remained as it was, an entity under Qi Tian’s control.

Qi Tian stored the black heart away, resettling it into the storage chamber of the Heavenly Dao Engine. Beside the black heart, he placed several Transporting Whirlwinds. If any abnormality was detected with the black heart, the Transporting Whirlwinds would rush forth to restrain it immediately, and the Heavenly Dao Engine would follow up without hesitation, digesting and transforming the black heart into its fuel.

After handling these matters, Qi Tian planned to deal with Manager Chen’s head. Having easily dealt with Manager Chen’s heart just now, Qi Tian had bolstered his confidence. However, at that moment, a sense of awareness emerged in his heart. He flicked open his palm where a vortex appeared and a Storage Ring flew out. This was the Storage Ring of Manager Chen’s, which he had recently handed over to the Heavenly Dao Engine for decryption.

The moment the Storage Ring appeared in Qi Tian’s palm, Manager Chen’s head, which had been immobilized on the ground by a talisman, began to struggle violently. Losing the connection with his Storage Ring, Manager Chen became frantic. The many secrets within the Storage Ring were now in Qi Tian’s hands, and the implications for him were self-evident.
