Chapter 424: Chapter 352: Fate Stands With Me, Xuan Haoran, and Will Never Change!

"Opposing you itself is a mistake? Such a villainous statement."

Zhu Tianqing’s beautiful eyes flashed with some oddity.

For some reason, she felt there was some similarity between Xuan Haoran and Su Yuan, something devilishly sinister.

Regardless of what his words meant, Zhu Tianqing launched further attacks without hesitation.

The Primordial Sect’s second-largest department next to the Beast Taming Department, the Breeding Department’s Divinity Transformation Inheritance, was poised to strike.

This Divinity Transformation Inheritance forms a complete divine technique, called the Reproductive Mother Tree, an extremely evil and bizarre divine technique that once activated can cause a strange mother tree capable of breeding everything to emerge.

The food for this mother tree is nothing but blood and filth, through absorbing these elements, it cultivates one evil beast after another, covered with tentacles, growing more numerous and stronger with each breeding.

Obviously, this divine technique has some restraint over the Corruption Divine Kingdom.

Or rather... these two divine techniques share a sort of combination tactic feel, taught by the same master, unbeatable.

Back when Su Yuan attacked the Primordial Sect team situated on the fifth floor, if not for Zhu Tianqing timely acting as a traitor, Su Yuan would have paid a great price to conquer his target.

Yet because this method was too evil, Zhu Tianqing dared not use it immediately.

After all, Xuan Haoran’s tower-climbing process was live-streamed, acting too evil would lead to social death!

Unfortunately, Xuan Haoran was stronger than she anticipated, the ’Ten Thousand Beasts Melting Furnace’ divine technique didn’t hinder him at all.

She must summon the Reproductive Mother Tree, combining this divine technique with the ’Ten Thousand Beasts Melting Furnace’, allowing the bizarre evil beasts born from the mother tree to meld together, forming a stronger fusion monster.

However, Xuan Haoran had already anticipated all of Zhu Tianqing’s moves, acting first before the girl launched her attack.

Zhu Tianqing raised her hand, intending to scatter the secretly gathered seed of reproduction into the black mud.

But at that moment, Xuan Haoran casually glanced at Zhu Tianqing’s soon-to-be raised palm.

Just one look from a distance, the girl’s fair and tender hand suddenly trembled, and the seed of reproduction in her palm turned into a pool of pus and vanished.

Immediately following, a strong backlash sensation due to the failure in activating the divine technique caused her sea of consciousness to quake.

The reproduction mother seed temporarily generated from the Human Pill showed signs of a violent outbreak, attempting to root in the girl’s Dantian and rapidly grow to begin breeding.

With much effort, Zhu Tianqing forcefully suppressed the backlash of the mother seed, sustaining varying degrees of internal injuries.

"Indeed, I’m still not as good as Su Yuan..."

The girl sighed inwardly:

"He could also temporarily grasp the reproduction mother seed using the Human Pill, yet the mother seed behaved so obediently inside him as if returning home, whereas I find using this divine technique so strenuous."

"However, the divine technique’s activation failure just now seems to not be my own fault but influenced by external forces."

The girl suddenly lifted her holy and beautiful eyes, tentatively asked:

"Is this the power of destiny you spoke about? Did it cause my divine technique to fail?"

"Obviously."

Xuan Haoran smiled slightly, his lifeless fish eyes bore a look of dominance, finally exuding the aura of a peerless prodigy standing amidst the tide of time:

"Destiny always stands by my side, it will never change!"

So arrogant, yet so fitting.

Zhu Tianqing furrowed her Dai Mei, feeling as though her destined fate was to lose.

For a destined outcome of failure, destiny’s power made her fail repeatedly, from the failure to invoke divine techniques to each tiny mishap?

As long as it’s a disadvantage for Xuan Haoran, it fails due to various reasons?

Then wouldn’t this guy be invincible?

Zhu Tianqing swiftly pondered in her heart but quickly denied her previous thoughts.

No one is invincible, even with a unique divine technique.

He should only be able to designate one thing independently to fail... But with a cooperation of twenty seconds of foresight into the future, he has ample time to decide whether to activate this ability.

Not entirely invincible, but close enough.

She must inform Su Yuan of this news, letting him prepare in advance.

She must quickly have him arrange any preparatory measures that require prior setup... This should have some effect.

The girl’s mind was racing, her figure subtly retreating.

Simultaneously, a bizarre monster composed of over a hundred Spirit Beasts charged toward Xuan Haoran’s back.

"Destiny Defeated!"

On the front is the fleeing enemy, behind is the frenzied attacking monster, yet Xuan Haoran remained unperturbed, merely calmly uttering two words.

The next moment, an invisible ripple expanded from Xuan Haoran’s body, sweeping over the fusion monster and Zhu Tianqing’s body.

Then, the fusion of over a hundred Spirit Beasts suddenly erupted, like blocks toppled by a child, one Spirit Beast after another detached from the fusion, dispersing back into over a hundred in an instant.

The power of the Ten Thousand Beasts Melting Furnace failed.

Simultaneously, as Zhu Tianqing was quickly retreating, her foot slipped, causing her to fall into the black mud, wrapped by filth and tentacles, her sanctity lost.

The mighty Foundation Establishment Stage Saintess actually tripped over such a ridiculous mistake as a slip!

"Celestial Hunter, haven’t you always wanted to know what my true ace is? This is it."

"A destined failure, does it satisfy you?"

Xuan Haoran looked down from above, smiling as he asked.

The young girl said nothing, gritting her teeth as she activated the Storage Magical Treasure, taking out a pristine Treasure Sword made from Beast Bone.

Unexpectedly, she failed to grasp it securely, and the Bone Sword slipped from her hand, its tip stabbing into her chest, piercing her heart.

This maneuver prompted many spectators outside the tower to exclaim at her clumsiness.

"Unbelievable, she manages to stab herself while drawing the sword, and it just happens to hit a vital spot, no acting involved."

And it’s understandable that the audience was anxious.

Because from their perspective, the battle between Zhu Tianqing and Xuan Haoran was too peculiar.

Aside from the initial Beast Fusion, which aligned with their expectations of a genius duel, the subsequent battle appeared clumsy.

Xuan Haoran remained motionless, while Zhu Tianqing continued to make mistakes; it seemed she was about to get herself killed.

Of course, the higher-ups who could understand the battle did not share this sentiment.

"Xuan Haoran’s grasp on the Destiny Defeated Divine Techniques is becoming stronger."

In the audience, Ye Muyu, a tutor at Observing Heaven University, who was a step away from the Nascent Soul Realm, murmured in admiration, observing the expression of the Demon Refining True Monarch in the front row with her golden eyes rippling.

What surprised Ye Muyu slightly was that the Demon Refining True Monarch was not enraged by his daughter’s defeat but instead let out a sigh of relief.

With her mind slightly turned, she chuckled silently.

This old father feels that if his daughter fails sooner, she can escape the bitter sea of being controlled by Su Yuan sooner?

Haha, although the Demon Refining True Monarch is honored as the head of the Beast Taming Department and a powerful figure in the Nascent Soul Late Stage, he doesn’t understand at all!

He doesn’t comprehend how terrifying Su Yuan is.

Want to escape once targeted by Old Demon Su?

Sure enough, as Zhu Tianqing was about to be utterly defeated and forcibly teleported out due to heart damage, a change occurred.

Suddenly, thick tentacles emerged from beneath Zhu Tianqing, wrapping around the holy maiden, dragging her into the black mud.

The black mud integrated into her body, sealing her heart wound while rapidly corrupting her, turning her into a servant of the Corruption Divine Kingdom.

Once she becomes a servant, Zhu Tianqing will gain the ability to teleport freely within the Corruption Divine Kingdom.

Then, as one of the defeated Four Heavenly Kings, she will, like many story villains, return stronger with a darker twist.

"No..."

Seeing his daughter wrapped in tentacles and black mud, the Demon Refining True Monarch’s pupils shook fiercely, almost shouting out despite his image!

Xuan Haoran, step up a little!

Do you intend to let the defeated Tianqing be taken away by Su Yuan?

In fact, Xuan Haoran certainly understood the logic of not letting a tiger return to the mountains.

When tentacles coiled around Zhu Tianqing and the black mud began corroding the holy maiden, he activated Destiny Defeated against the surrounding black mud and tentacles.

Unfortunately, the black mud and tentacles were too numerous, and defeating this region’s black mud and tentacles didn’t affect the rest overtaking Zhu Tianqing.

Moreover, Zhu Tianqing herself voluntarily cooperated to be corrupted; how could that be stopped?

Seconds later, the corrupted Zhu Tianqing halted her injury, gripping the pristine Bone Sword, she slowly stood up and said:

"This encounter has taught me well; I look forward to meeting you again in the future." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

With that, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Primordial Sect, the Celestial Hunting Celestial King, along with her hundreds of Spirit Beasts, vanished with the Teleportation Power of the Corruption Divine Kingdom.

"Hey, don’t go!"

"When I play games, I dislike these kinds of bosses that reappear later!"

This is blatant recycling and reuse of game resources!

Xuan Haoran internally expressed his powerlessness.

But ultimately, he did not voice these thoughts, merely sighing before heading toward the Spiral Stairs.

Yet, he had not advanced a few steps when a sudden change occurred in the empty first floor!

The tower-world, shrouded in crimson, suddenly roared with thunder, stirring up a storm.

The heavy swamp-like black mud was quickly whipped into raging tidal waves by the storm!

Waves of black mud crashed upward like a descending dark cloud, ferociously striking Xuan Haoran, leaving him almost no space to dodge.

"Wait...what’s happening here?"

Xuan Haoran was a bit puzzled:

"How does this resemble the Nine Extremes Exquisite Tower’s own power? It can only be controlled and used by the Tower Master."

"But my father isn’t here; who is manipulating the Nine Extremes Exquisite Tower?"

And just before the tidal wave fiercely hit, he suddenly guessed an answer.

Perhaps this was the key for Su Yuan to open the tower layers’ entrances?

This guy utilized some powerful, bizarre method to seize my father’s Magical Treasure?
