There are too many female protagonists with deceased husbands in the Qin Dynasty's Past Books.

"Fire...Rain...Treasure...Map..."

Jiang Mo forced out fragmented words from his throat, and with each word he uttered, he could feel the air being squeezed out of his lungs by a brute force.

In just a few words, a feeling of suffocation was almost overwhelming him.

Her fingers twitched slightly, almost unconsciously, and the delicate threads caused the map Jiang Mo was carrying to flutter out.

Bright flames ignited in mid-air.

Tianze understood that this was probably the other party's way of trying to distract him, but when he saw the sheepskin map burning in mid-air, he still stepped forward and reached out to grab it.

It's not that he would be easily fooled.

Rather, it was Tianze who truly knew his stuff.

Having always coveted the treasure of Fire Rain Manor, he had also collected clues from various sources, including the few patterns Jiang Mo had left on the feathers and the map on the parchment scroll illuminated by the firelight.

Those lines all corresponded to the clues in Tianze's mind.

Even if there might be false clues mixed in, Tianze was unwilling to let it slip away and insisted on holding onto it tightly.

Taigong fished, and those who were willing took the bait.

Knowing full well that this was the enemy's scheme, we still had no choice but to take the risk and face the challenge head-on; this is what is meant by an open conspiracy.

Moreover, the other party was almost out of breath.

It was powerless to break free of its restraints and faced the combined attack of other dragon transformation true energies. Could it possibly stir up any waves?

In Tianze's view, the other party was merely making a death throes.

On one hand, they were trying to attract his attention with the map, hoping to create an opportunity to escape; on the other hand, they were also trying to destroy the map so that Tianze would return empty-handed.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

Tianze reached out and tightly gripped the burning parchment, letting the intense flames lick his fingers, but he only let out a cold snort.

With a surge of true energy, he extinguished the raging fire in his palm.

Out of the corner of his eye, under the bombardment of several dragon-transformation true energies, the cursed soul and witch shadow that had been lingering around Jiang Mo finally collapsed under the strain.

Blood splattered everywhere...

Blood Butterfly?

A living person suddenly disintegrates and transforms into countless butterflies before your eyes. If such a scene did not occur during a life-or-death struggle, it would truly be described as a dream.

Even at this moment, Tianze couldn't help but be stunned by what he saw.

Dream Butterfly Escape...

not good!

After all, he was the prince of Baiyue who had devoted himself to studying the Central Plains states. Tianze quickly thought of the Taoist Dream Butterfly Escape Technique and realized that something was wrong.

Unfortunately, the reaction was ultimately too late.

A heavy punch landed squarely on Tianze's abdomen.

In the swaying vision, a boy with bloodstains at the corner of his mouth came into Tianze's view. Only his dark pupils were visible on his masked face, which were now burning with madness and wildness.

Having revealed all his trump cards, Jiang Mo finally managed to kill his way to Tian Ze's side.

A distance where they are face to face, ready for close combat.

At such close range, where even daggers are somewhat difficult to use, Tianze's most proficient Dragon Transformation True Qi is even more difficult to unleash.

Before Tianze could regain his balance after being hit hard in the abdomen, Jiang Mo delivered another headbutt.

Bang!

The brutal and direct collision inevitably left Tianze dizzy, but Jiang Mo wasn't much better off.

A master born with innate talent possesses an extraordinary physical strength.

This headbutt, which injures the enemy a thousand while damaging oneself eight hundred, only caused Tianze to have a red forehead and feel a little dizzy, while Jiang Mo's own forehead was shattered, and blood spurted out and splattered all over the other's face.

But Jiang Mo ignored it and continued his frenzied attack.

The blood splattered on Tianze's face silently transformed into blazing flames, causing little harm to Tianze but greatly interfering with his vision.

It was as if they were wearing thermal imaging cameras and rushing into a sea of ​​fire.

He was almost blinded by the burns.

Thanks to the Blazing Serpent, Jiang Mo knew exactly where the snakes' visual weaknesses were, and he was able to use them to deal with Tian Ze with ease.

For a moment, all Tianze could see before him was firelight and twinkling stars.

Completely unable to find Jiang Mo, let alone take any defensive action, they could only try their best to protect their vitals and find a way to escape.

How could Jiang Mo miss an opportunity created with such desperate effort?

The Myriad Gu Thread-Pulling Technique, it's still the Myriad Gu Thread-Pulling Tech

This time, Jiang Mo completely disregarded the potential self-harm and pushed this secret technique to its limit, manipulating every muscle in his body to unleash a brute force that even his own body could hardly withstand.

One punch.

An extremely powerful punch.

It struck Tianze hard in the abdomen without any mercy.

Amidst the dull thuds of flesh being struck, there was the sound of Jiang Mo's arm bones breaking, followed by a gurgling sound of vomiting.

Under the heavy punch, Tianze, whose body was curled up like a shrimp, began to vomit uncontrollably.

Chapter 74 It's just an arm, I'll give it to you.

"Waaah~"

Tianze, who confidently appeared on the cliff top, never expected to be beaten so badly that he vomited, looking as pathetic as a stray dog.

Where is even a trace of kingly demeanor?

At this moment, the unease that had been brewing in his heart exploded completely, making Tianze realize that the situation had completely spiraled out of his control.

In other places, even if one gets beaten up again, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Despite his current disheveled state, he was not fundamentally injured; he was simply caught off guard by Jiang Mo's surprise attack.

Even the dragon-transformation true energy that was sent out could not return to protect the body.

That's how they end up in a passive, defensive position.

As long as he grits his teeth and perseveres, and as long as Tianze can catch his breath, he will be able to regain control of the situation and completely crush this futile attempt to stop him.

But that's the ideal situation.

The two were currently fighting on a mountaintop where the wind was howling.

Even masters of innate talent are not omnipotent. At least Tianze is completely incapable of flying on the wind. Given the steepness of this place, if he were to fall off the cliff...

Fear gripped Tianze's heart.

dead.

I might die here.

The unexpected ending made Tianze tremble uncontrollably.

Faced with this blatant threat of death, Tianze no longer cared about the potential backlash. His bloodshot eyes, which were burning painfully from the intense flames, roared with a rare madness.

"die!"

Amidst a furious roar, the dragon-transforming true energy that had been released shattered completely, and accompanied by blood mist splattering from all parts of his body, violent crimson true energy surged wildly out of Tianze's body.

Like a mountain torrent or tsunami, it carries with it an irresistible, pure violence.

Jiang Mo was like a badminton shuttlecock hit by a racket, unable to put up any resistance, and was sent flying backward, falling towards the cliff.

This is what a master of innate talent is like.

No matter how much scheming and plotting you employ, you can't withstand the unparalleled numerical superiority.

Life and death are decided in the blink of an eye.

However, Tianze's face showed no trace of the composure of a victor; instead, it revealed a look of astonishment and panic.

Because he discovered that something important had vanished.

That is certainly not the dignity of Tianze as a master of innate level.

Rather, it was the root of his recent scheme—the Eternal Bond Gu he intended to use to control Yan Lingji! At this moment, Tianze could no longer sense its presence.

The mother Gu is lost?!

If that was the case, Tianze had previously only appeared somewhat flustered and disoriented because the situation had developed beyond his expectations, but now his blood-stained and disheveled face was completely filled with an expression of disbelief.

He almost shouted, "Impossible!"

It wasn't that Tianze was easily alarmed, but rather that he had clearly hidden the Eternal Bond Gu in an absolutely safe place.

It was hidden inside Tianze's own body.

That's why Tianze had such unparalleled confidence in the safety of the mother Gu when he discussed it with the village chief, believing that even if the shaman took action, it would be impossible to take it away.

This is the mother Gu hidden inside the body.

Even if Tianze were disemboweled, it wouldn't be easy to find him, let alone Tianze, who was not the kind of person who would sit and wait for death.

But now, having regained his footing, Tianze clearly could no longer sense the presence of the mother Gu.

The painful memory of the severe blow to the abdomen that had caused him to vomit so badly resurfaced in Tianze's mind.

He suddenly turned his head, his gaze fixed on Jiang Mo, who was rapidly falling towards the bottom of the cliff.

Was all of this part of that guy's plan?

That punch just now... no, not just that punch, but also some specks floating in my field of vision. It wasn't some illusion caused by seeing stars, but rather butterfly scales reflecting the firelight.

And this stuff has always been poisonous.

The reason for the uncontrollable nausea and vomiting he had just experienced was now clear. Tianze, who belatedly realized the reason for Jiang Mo's actions, was both shocked and furious.

Just minutes before, he was calm and composed, completely at ease.
