Chapter 1989 - 1523: Ghost Qi Yin-Yang!

The reason Qin Fang didn't rush to attack the black-robed man was partly because there was some distance between them, and it would take time to get closer.But there was another more important reason, which also left Qin Fang quite helpless.

The Netherworld Ghost Qi was exceedingly sinister. Although Qin Fang was more cautious and had stronger combat prowess, he dared not get too close to the black-robed man.

The black-robed man killed the black-skinned man by accumulating two streams of Netherworld Ghost Qi, and only succeeded with Sofia's cover...

This guy had a rather impressive technique with hidden weapons. Although it might not match the experts from the Tang Sect, it was already quite formidable.

After all, in the martial world, there were quite a few masters of hidden weapons. The Tang Sect was just the most famous, but there were many powerful hidden weapon masters outside, some perhaps even more formidable than those from the Tang Sect!

By keeping a distance, Qin Fang had enough buffer space. Even though the opponent's hidden weapon skills were strong, Qin Fang was confident in his ability to dodge them.

This Netherworld Ghost Qi was too formidable. Once hit, it would be a source of endless trouble... Just like earlier, when a small amount infiltrated, Qin Fang had to expend great effort to eliminate most of it, yet some remained!

If directly hit, with a massive influx of Netherworld Ghost Qi entering Qin Fang's body, Qin Fang would likely end up like the black-skinned man, killed with a single blow!

If the distance were too close, Qin Fang's room for evasion would shrink significantly, dramatically increasing the chance of getting hit... This was not a choice Qin Fang wanted.

After much thought, using the gun seemed more practical...

Admittedly, for those who reached Grandmaster Level or above, the threat of ordinary firearms would be greatly reduced. For those at Great Grandmaster Level, the threat was even negligible.

As for those who reached the legendary Supreme Realm, apart from large-scale high-explosive bombs, ordinary firearms posed no threat. Such experts could even catch bullets with their bare hands!

"Kekekeke~~~ Want to kill me? That's not enough..."

Nevertheless, this black-robed man was evidently much harder to deal with than Qin Fang imagined. Even though he was busy absorbing the Netherworld Ghost Qi released by the Netherworld Blood Pool, he still effortlessly dodged Qin Fang's shooting.

"Qinggong?"

Qin Fang also noticed the opponent's footwork, and his face grew more solemn. This black-robed man possessed some extremely mysterious movement technique, on par with Qin Fang's Traceless Snow Stepping Technique.

The Traceless Snow Stepping Technique was already one of the top-notch movement technique secrets in the martial world, a signature skill of the Great Sect Snow Mountain Sect.

But this black-robed man had a movement technique not inferior to the Traceless Snow Stepping Technique, which was troubling Qin Fang considerably.

"Youming Ghost Step..."

Qin Fang quickly thought of a movement technique of the same source as the Netherworld Ghost Qi, regarded as one of the first-class movement technique secrets in the martial world.

This movement technique was extremely mysterious, created in conjunction with the Netherworld Ghost Qi, and only experts who cultivated the Netherworld Ghost Qi could master it. Others, even with the secret manual, could not cultivate it... This alone barred many from entering.

Unfortunately, this black-robed man not only cultivated Netherworld Ghost Qi but had also become proficient in Youming Ghost Step, and even discovered this naturally formed Netherworld Blood Pool and a Netherworld Ghost Lotus!

Seeing this scene, Qin Fang really felt like asking the black-robed man if he was God's illegitimate child, having all the benefits to himself...

Even Qin Fang was quite satisfied with his own luck, but compared to the one before him, it was somewhat lacking...

Discovering the Youming Ghost Step, Qin Fang finally understood why the black-robed man moved so effortlessly, yet arrived here before them.

"Hmph~~"

At this moment, while Qin Fang was in shock, the opponent was not idle either.

Perhaps provoked by Qin Fang's actions, the black-robed man began to act...

The Netherworld Ghost Qi could always be absorbed slowly, especially after the Netherworld Blood Pool fully matured, to be absorbed at will.

But the present Qin Fang did not intend to let him cultivate in peace and even discovered such a big secret, so naturally, he didn't plan to let Qin Fang go.

With a cold snort, the surrounding temperature began to drop suddenly, similar to the changes when he dealt with the black-skinned man before.

Sensing this change, Qin Fang's heart trembled slightly, his eyes intensely focused on the black-robed man, his True Qi oscillating, resisting all external forces!

Meanwhile, as Qin Fang was preparing defensively, he clearly felt a stream of exotic True Qi silently approaching him...

"Here it comes again!"

However, Qin Fang, having experienced this once, naturally wouldn't allow the black-robed man to succeed this time. With a surge of True Qi, he immediately repelled this stream of Netherworld Ghost Qi!

Yet, Qin Fang didn't entirely resist it. Taking advantage of the moment when the two streams of True Qi clashed, Qin Fang used his own vast True Qi to envelop a strand of Netherworld Ghost Qi into his body, and in the shortest time, fused and absorbed it...

Qin Fang had his reasons for doing this, as he had previously discovered something and now sought to verify his hypothesis.

"So, the Netherworld Ghost Qi is actually divided into Yin and Yang energies..."

This was what Qin Fang had discovered earlier, that the Netherworld Ghost Qi wasn't just a single type of True Qi; in fact, it divided into two parts: Yin and Yang, yet originating from the same source...

Qin Fang, by separately fusing a thread of Netherworld Ghost Qi twice, finally distinguished the subtle differences between the two instances of Netherworld Ghost Qi, bringing him a discovery that was immensely surprising and exciting...(To be continued.
