Chapter 625: Chapter 157 Mortals, God_2

The opponent was just a mortal!

He could afford to trade injury for death!

Under the blessing of the "Divine Throne Token," ordinary injuries could not harm him at all. He needed just a few breaths to recover as before!

Thus, Chu Ling’s palm was pressed onto the center of his eyebrows!

And he, with crossed hands, twisted off this head!

This extremely horrifying scene almost made Shen Li, who was watching the battle, cry out in shock.

However... Chu Ling’s head did not burst apart; at this moment, she seemed to turn into countless beams of golden light. Xu Yan’s hands passed each other through the void, snatching at nothing. He looked bewildered at this scene – was this also beyond his expectation?

Didn’t hit?

Was this a dream?

Or could it be... that this woman had no so-called "physical body" at all?

He could never have imagined that this was not a mortal body! It was a Divine Embryo!

The next moment!

Xu Yan’s head was pierced with a bloody hole. His eyes quickly dimmed, as mighty Origin Qi almost invaded the sea of his skull. It was a pity that the power of the "Divine Throne Token" was too strong. This instantly fatal injury was, in the end, forcefully saved by the power of the Wine God at the very last moment.

Those dim eyes emitted an even more intense light!

Xu Yan raised his head.

He saw a fist burning with Chi Huo!

With a "bang"!

Thousands of Array Pattern Diagrams, as well as the golden light that gathered nine parts of the tomb garden’s array strength, wrapped around Gu Shen’s fist!

This punch was powerful enough to turn a giant elephant into vapor.

If time were slowed by a hundred times, one could see... every moment, Xu Yan’s facial bones were incinerated and then regenerated, continuously incinerated and continuously reborn. Such was the cycle that the Divine Miracle came upon Xu Yan – it was the Divine Power of the Wine God saving his devout believer. However, the impact of Gu Shen’s punch was so swift and fierce that the strand of Divine Power from the Wine God was continuously pushed back in this battle of offense and defense.

One second later in the real world, most of Xu Yan’s head had fallen into a state of burning annihilation.

What a pity.

From the second second, the horrific injury was contained.

Divine Power won this battle of offense and defense... under the burning of the "Divine Throne Token," it would probably take only ten seconds for his facial injury to be completely restored!

For a second, Xu Yan’s consciousness floated out of his body.

When he came back to his senses, he saw an even more scorching blaze of light.

It was Gu Shen’s second punch coming mercilessly!

Xu Yan roared and threw his own punch!

This time... unlike the scene of the fire-ravaged street, he no longer passively took the hits but chose to strike, delivering a punch with all his strength, empowered by the Divine Power of the Divine Throne. However, after the consumption of the previous two rounds of "near-death injuries," the power of the token was almost reduced to its lowest point.

Gu Shen’s eyes were like torches, not retreating at all!

With a "bang"!

The void exploded with ten million dazzling flames!

Both figures were sent flying backward.

Gu Shen took a step back. The intense golden light that was tightly concentrated on the surface of his fist was scattered everywhere by the strong recoil force... and then within a few seconds, it returned to "order."

On the other hand, Xu Yan was not so composed.

He was blasted right out of this void.

His entire body was thrown out of the "Inner Mausoleum"!

He fell heavily into the Great Cold Disaster Realm, landing on his back, creating a ravine hundreds of meters long. His entire body was caught in a cycle of burning and rebirth. The immense power of the "Divine Throne Token" continuously surged into his limbs and body, desperately saving this dying trunk.

...

...

In the void between the Great Cold Disaster Realm and the Qing Tomb Inner Mausoleum.

Majestic waves of energy slowly dispersed.

This void, temporarily returned to peace.

Gu Shen floated in front of Shen Li.

"Brother Gu..."

Shen Li’s face was pale, and he just tried to say something.

Gu Shen softly transmitted his voice, "There’s no need to say more; I already know what I need to know."

Shen Li was taken aback.

He was briefly bewildered for two seconds, then remembered that Gu Shen was a disciple of Master Qianye, proficient in Divination Skill.

But it was not actually so.

During the establishment of the Spiritual Link with Chu Ling, the "information" from inside and outside the tomb flooded into Gu Shen’s mind.

"You’ve been poisoned by Poison Scorpion’s Spiritual Poison. I’ll help you heal first."

Gu Shen softly said, "Close your eyes, don’t overthink... just like when Chunyu and I sparred."

After hearing this, Shen Li complied obediently.

He closed his eyes.

Gu Shen extended two fingers, curved them, and lightly tapped.

In the void, ripples spread.

Chi Huo directly entered Shen Li’s forehead, found that deep and shallow poison in the "Spirit Space," and then... unceremoniously opened wide and swallowed it whole.

The next moment.

Shen Li felt all the coldness and deadness in his body disappear, replaced by a warm current that slowly flowed through him.

He opened his eyes, unable to help but let out a long breath, feeling as if a thousand-pound weight had been lifted.

It was truly miraculous.

Shen Li’s expression was complex, and even knowing Gu Shen’s methods, firsthand experience still made it feel unbelievable.

However, after the poison of Poison Scorpion dissipated, his physical body felt at ease, but his spirit was extremely weary, getting more and more sleepy, more and more drowsy.

"...Thank you... Brother Gu."

Shen Li’s voice hadn’t finished before he closed his eyes again.

This time, he completely fell asleep, suspended in the void, enveloped by a corner of golden array patterns.
