Chapter 650: Great Demon Toad Technique

The majestic peak was a scene of devastation.

Countless stunned gazes converged on the two figures at the peak, especially on Zhou Yuan. Those eyes were filled with disbelief; no one had expected Zhou Yuan to gain a slight advantage in this direct confrontation.

What did this signify?

It meant that the vast gap that once existed between the two sides had been gradually closed, and even surpassed, by Zhou Yuan.

Such a transcendence was almost unimaginable for ordinary people. After all, the difference between a Genesis Qi foundation of thirty-nine thousand and eighty-three thousand was truly despair-inducing, yet Zhou Yuan had somehow achieved it in the end...

It truly was a miracle.

In the direction of the Sacred Palace, the disciples who had previously worn sneering expressions now had stiff faces, seemingly unable to believe what they had just witnessed.

From their perspective, Zhou Yuan was the weakest link among the Cangxuan Sect's three rings, and the gap between him and Jin Chanzu was the largest. Therefore, they believed Jin Chanzu would surely defeat Zhou Yuan with overwhelming force in their clash, leading to the collapse of the entire Cangxuan Sect.

And indeed, the previous exchanges had unfolded as they expected, with Jin Chanzu holding a clear advantage. But who could have foreseen that Zhou Yuan would suddenly explode with power, his Genesis Qi surging wildly? He not only completely closed the gap between them but even managed to gain a slight upper hand in the direct clash!

This scene clearly delivered a massive shock to the Sacred Palace disciples.

In contrast to the deathly silence from the Sacred Palace, the Cangxuan Sect immediately erupted in deafening cheers.

Tang Muxin, Gu Hongyi, and others all wore expressions of excitement.

Although they didn't understand how Zhou Yuan could unleash such inhuman power, regardless, the current situation was good news for their Cangxuan Sect.

As long as Zhou Yuan held his ground, the outcome of this struggle for the Seventh Peak was still unknown!

Zuoqiu Qingyu, Lv Luo, Li Chunjun, and others exchanged glances, murmuring, "This guy is just too monstrous."

At the very bottom of the Seventh Peak, Saint Sons such as Kong Sheng, Li Qingchan, and Ye Ge were protected by the Heavenly Net Umbrella, occasionally engaging the Sacred Palace Saint Sons, which gave them time to observe the battle above.

When they saw Zhou Yuan turn the tide in his clash with Jin Chanzu and gain a slight advantage, they were similarly moved.

"Zhou Yuan's strength has actually reached this level!" Li Qingchan exclaimed in surprise. At this moment, if measured by strength, Zhou Yuan was probably no weaker than her or Kong Sheng.

Zhao Zhu, standing nearby, had a constantly changing, quite remarkable expression.

Perhaps even he found it hard to believe that this junior disciple, whom he had often looked down upon, had completed his transformation from a newcomer in less than two years. Now, he had even surpassed him.

"Jin Chanzu was a bit too arrogant," Ye Ge slowly remarked.

Kong Sheng also nodded, saying, "Currently, Zhou Yuan's Genesis Qi has surged, and his Grand Profound Saint Spirit Art seems to have been truly mastered. But Jin Chanzu had previously underestimated him, still attempting to suppress Zhou Yuan solely with Genesis Qi. He never expected to suffer the consequences in the end."

"However, after this loss, Jin Chanzu probably wouldn't dare to be complacent again..."

"In the upcoming battle, Jin Chanzu will no longer hold back."

Li Qingchan also gave a slight nod of her delicate head, took a deep breath, and her beautiful eyes fixed on the slender young figure at the peak.

"I hope he can hold his own."

At the summit, Zhou Yuan's Genesis Qi surged around him. A mysterious light-shadow enveloped his body, and light wings extended from his back.

He looked at the ashen-faced Jin Chanzu before him, his expression calm. He showed no sign of wild joy despite gaining a slight advantage, as this was within his expectations.

After absorbing the abundant Earth Saint Genesis Qi into his body with the Earth Saint Rune, his Genesis Qi foundation, though perhaps still slightly short of Jin Chanzu's eighty-three thousand, the difference was now very small.

Moreover, at this moment, his body was also empowered by the Saint Spirit Phantom.

This was the complete form of the Saint Spirit Phantom, one of the most powerful Genesis Arts of their Saint Genesis Peak.

And Jin Chanzu had been overconfident earlier, attempting to fight him purely with Genesis Qi, naturally gaining no advantage.

"I truly didn't expect that I, Jin Chanzu, would have a day where I almost capsized in the gutter," the ashen-faced Jin Chanzu finally recovered his composure. His golden vertical pupils gleamed with endless coldness as he stared at Zhou Yuan and slowly spoke.

"It seems that saying is true: even a cornered rabbit will bite..."

A strong murderous intent flashed across Jin Chanzu's face as he spoke in a sinister voice, "But unfortunately, while a rabbit's bite might sting a little, in the end, this rabbit will likely not escape death."

Emerald green poisonous gas flowed from Jin Chanzu's nostrils. He slowly clasped his hands together, and a terrifyingly dangerous aura began to emanate from his body.

"Since you've revealed all your trump cards... then I should let you witness mine as well."

At this moment, emerald green liquid began to seep from beneath Jin Chanzu's skin, spreading slowly like viscous fluid.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

As the viscous fluid landed on his skin, it immediately made a corrosive sizzling sound, revealing flesh beneath. It was quite eerie and horrifying.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuan's eyes narrowed. Just as he was about to make a move, Jin Chanzu suddenly opened his mouth, and a beam of emerald green light shot out, carrying an immense putrid smell, fiercely hurtling towards Zhou Yuan.

Within the emerald green poisonous light was actually a poisonous staff, pulsating with Genesis Qi from heaven and earth, its aura fiercely alarming.

It was a Low-Grade Heavenly Origin Weapon.

The poisonous staff roared forward with a ferocious aura.

Zhou Yuan shook his sleeve, and a black light shot out, rapidly expanding in the wind to transform into a mottled black brush, which then clashed with the poisonous staff.

Clang! Clang!

The two clashed in mid-air, seemingly imbued with sentience, furiously striking each other. Each collision unleashed a violent burst of Genesis Qi, no weaker than the previous confrontations between Zhou Yuan and Jin Chanzu.

As the two Heavenly Origin Weapons tangled, Zhou Yuan's gaze swiftly shifted towards Jin Chanzu's location.

When his eyes landed on him, his pupils immediately contracted slightly. Jin Chanzu's appearance at that moment was utterly horrifying, his entire body a bloody mess, covered in emerald green venom.

Vicious poisonous bubbles rose on his skin, and his body gradually swelled, eventually prostrating itself on the ground with his back arching. A terrifying Genesis Qi storm raged from within him.

Eerie sounds emanated from Jin Chanzu's body. As the sounds emerged, emerald green light waves burst forth, instantly corroding the nearby ground, turning it into what looked like a toxic swamp.

Jin Chanzu's golden vertical pupils, filled with cruelty and ruthlessness, stared fixedly at Zhou Yuan. A ferocious expression also surfaced on his face.

At this moment, Jin Chanzu resembled an ancient poisonous toad, incredibly ferocious.

Outside the mountain, countless horrified eyes watched the terrifying appearance of Jin Chanzu. Some Saint Sons gasped, and voices of shock reverberated.

"That's..."

"The Great Demonic Toad Art!"
