Chapter 1570: Chapter 611: Old Acquaintances Meet Again

The High Priest is a stereotypical image of a Black man. Even though he narrowly managed to become a God-Level Expert, due to his innate limitations, his strength was considered bottom-tier among the God-Level Experts. Even Yan Fei, with his Spider Combat Platform at the Innate Peak level, could easily toy with him. But after only a few years of absence, the High Priest’s strength has undergone an explosive transformation, leaping from the bottom tier of God-Level Experts to the forefront.

The previously insignificant "toxic" ability, for reasons unknown, has been developed by the High Priest to its utmost potential. Now, when the High Priest unleashes his "toxic" ability, not only does the spherical mass created by the toxic liquid expand significantly in size, but the liquid’s toxicity becomes exponentially more potent. It’s no longer just dangerous to make direct contact with the toxic liquid—merely being near it causes horrifying symptoms of poisoning.

Even though the High Priest stood still without any movements, entirely passive and absorbing attacks, the spherical mass of "toxic" liquid he controlled struck fear into everyone’s hearts. No one dared to advance against him. Relying solely on his ability, the High Priest managed to stop everyone midway across the Suspension Bridge, pulling off an impossible combat plan. Despite the unprecedented scale of so many God-Level Experts joining forces to attack, no one could do anything to the High Priest—truly an unexpected scenario.

The Ancestral Land was also stunned by the High Priest’s "toxic" ability. However, driven by a strong urge to eliminate the Destiny Organization, the Ancestral Land hesitated only briefly before rushing forward, attempting to continue their assault on the High Priest. The Ancestral Land was encased entirely in metal armor, a suit designed to resist the effects of the toxic liquid to some extent. As the Ancestral Land approached the High Priest, despite the "toxic" liquid beginning to corrode his metal armor, it did not directly compromise the protection it offered to his body within.

The Ancestral Land let out a deafening roar, and his fist, encased in metal armor, struck the spherical mass of "toxic" liquid. As his metal fist made contact with the sphere, a wave of obscure and enigmatic Energy surged into the toxic sphere, which caused the liquid inside to ripple violently. At the sphere’s center, the High Priest let out a muffled groan, evidently injured by the Ancestral Land’s attack.

However, as soon as the Ancestral Land’s metal-covered fist touched the toxic liquid, the liquid began rapidly corroding the metal armor. By the time the Ancestral Land infused his Energy into the toxic sphere, the protective metal covering his fist had been entirely dissolved. When he withdrew his fist, he found that the metal armor had completely eroded away, revealing his massive hand clad in Black Gloves underneath.

The Ancestral Land’s strength system differed from that of other God-Level Experts. His body generated a strange type of Energy, which, although much of it was neutralized by the toxic sphere, still managed to transmit a portion through the liquid, causing harm to the High Priest. But the High Priest’s toxic liquid was truly formidable—it corroded the Ancestral Land’s metal armor almost instantly, making it impossible for him to continue his assault on the High Priest. Although the High Priest sustained minor injuries, the Ancestral Land could not press his attack further, leaving the High Priest as a formidable obstacle barring everyone’s path.

The Ancestral Land, seeing that he was incapable of defeating the High Priest, felt a measure of disappointment. With one fist’s metal armor already destroyed by the toxic liquid, it was clear that even if he continued attacking, his other armored hand would be incapacitated before he could kill the High Priest. Thus, after observing the High Priest’s reaction for a brief moment, the Ancestral Land swiftly withdrew to the rear of the team.

Seeing the Ancestral Land’s metal armor corroded by the toxic liquid, the group found themselves at an impasse regarding the High Priest. If the High Priest lacked the protective toxic liquid, no matter how formidable he was, he would surely meet his end under the collective assault of so many God-Level Experts. But now, the High Priest was concealed within the toxic liquid, rendering him untouchable, and no one could even approach him. They felt as though they were dealing with a hedgehog—unable to find any opening to attack.

At this moment of exasperation, Yan Fei suddenly remarked, "Look, the suspension cables of this bridge are rapidly being corroded by the toxic liquid. Once this bridge is destroyed, I estimate it will be very challenging for everyone to reach the other side."

Their initial plan was that, even if the High Priest were to destroy the Suspension Bridge, they could rely on the lightning controller and "Who Am I," the two individuals capable of flight, to carry the others across. However, with the High Priest defending the bridge so stubbornly, they realized there was likely something deeper at play here. The most probable scenario was that only the two who could fly would be able to cross to the other side, while the others, who lacked such abilities, would remain stranded. Their only option for crossing was the Suspension Bridge.

Tripiṭaka furrowed his brows and said, "The Suspension Bridge is indeed about to be destroyed, and this guy is stopping us here for as long as he can. The longer we’re trapped in this spot, the greater the risk of being discovered by the Destiny Organization, which would completely ruin the element of surprise. We must eliminate the High Priest as quickly as possible. Otherwise, not only will we lose the advantage of a surprise attack, but we might also walk right into the Destiny Organization’s Trap."

Xiao Wudi added, "But this guy’s toxic ability is so formidable—we have no way to break through its defensive barrier!"
