Chapter Seventeen: The Touch of Darkness (Three)

  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

  Xiao Se's reaction was extremely fast, and after a brief moment of shock, his Zi Chen Bow had already been raised again. He believed that Zhou Weiqing was only a low-level cultivator and couldn't possibly use the skill of Space Teleportation continuously, and under his own consecutive arrow technique, he would have no way to dodge.

  But just as he raised the Purple Bow, suddenly, the air around him violently twisted, a layer of cyan light quietly descended, and he found that he couldn't move anymore.

  In just three breaths, Zhou Weiqing had already traversed a distance of fifty paces and stood before Xiao Se, grinning from ear to ear with an innocent smile. Then this guy pulled out a feather arrow from his quiver, using the tip of the arrow shaft stained with white powder to draw a circle on Xiao Se's chest, adding a small white dot in the center.

  "Does this mean I win now?" As he finished saying that, Xiao Se found that his own body could move again.

  "Wind, just now that was a wind attribute skill. You, you..." Xiao Xi had already forgotten about winning or losing, looking at Zhou Weiqing with eyes full of unbelievable color.

  When Zhou Weiqing previously showcased his Heavenly Jewel Master strength, he was shocked in his heart but could still remain calm. If the empire had another Heavenly Jewel Master, it would be a good thing, no wonder Shangguan Xue'er let him become her personal guard. But until just now when Zhou Weiqing came close and drew a mark on his chest with an arrow rod, he finally understood that this seemingly silly-looking young man was actually a more talented Heavenly Jewel Master than Shangguan Xue'er. He had consecutively used two different attribute restriction skills and one auxiliary skill. To know that for Heavenly Jewel Masters or Spiritual Jewel Masters, having attack or defense skills is not scary, what's most terrifying are these restriction and auxiliary skills, and the difficulty of imprinting these skills is extremely high, at least requiring a top-grade Heaven Beast to produce. Therefore, most Heavenly Jewel Masters can only possess this kind of ability after cultivating above six Jewels. How could he not be shocked when three appeared on Zhou Weiqing's body all at once?

  "Hey, Xiao Team Captain, you lost. You won't deny it this time, will you?" Zhou Weiqing raised his hand and waved it in front of Xiao Se's eyes, but the triumph in his heart was no longer as strong as before.

  After using these skills continuously, his internal heavenly power was almost exhausted, while his opponent was just an ordinary person, not even a Jade Master. This is because he couldn't bring himself to kill Xiao Se, but it also shows that his application of skills is still far from sufficient. He must practice more.

  Spatial Shift, Zhou Weiqing's first skill to imprint the Space Attribute of the Stone Cat's Eye. A single bead level Spatial Shift allowed him to instantly shift any distance within three meters. It looked simple, but this skill was known as one of the top three auxiliary skills below three beads, it was a lifesaving skill! Without this skill, he would have lost just now.

  Wind Restriction, Zhou Weiqing's first Wind Attribute skill. A single Wind Restriction can instantly lock onto a target within fifty yards, as long as the target's Heavenly Energy cultivation is not more than five levels higher than his own. The target will be restricted for three seconds. If the target's cultivation is lower than his own, each level of difference in Heavenly Energy will add an extra second to the restriction time.

  Wind Binding and Dark Touch are both restrictive skills, but they have a big difference in effect. The effective range of Dark Touch is 25 meters in radius, while Wind Binding is 50 meters. However, Dark Touch can affect multiple targets at the same time and has many auxiliary effects, whereas Wind Binding is purely restrictive.

  It can be said that the Dark Bind is not as good as the Wind Bind in terms of pure binding, but when adding its enhanced sensory effects and other functions, it's still slightly stronger than the Wind Bind overall. This is the advantage of having a superior attribute.

  Don't think that these two skills overlap, with Zhou Weiqing's current cultivation level, using any skill and then wanting to use another one again requires at least five seconds of adjustment time. However, once the attribute is switched, there won't be this problem, not to mention the differences in distance and quantity.

  Of course, this isn't to say that Zhou Weiqing was particularly clever when he Imprinted, the key point is, his Imprinting targets were all Sacred-level Heavenly Beasts, how could there be any trash skills on a Sacred-level Heavenly Beast?

  Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Weiqing's changing expression, and finally let out a sigh. He suddenly threw the Purple Heaven Bow to the ground and turned around to leave.

  Lost, I lost myself, not just to Shangguan Bing'er, but also to this Zhou Xiaopang. The two Tianzhu masters together, how could I possibly compete with Shangguan Bing'er? At this moment, Xiao Se's heart was filled with a bitter taste. No matter how hard I tried, I still couldn't compare to others' innate talent!

  "You're just going to leave like that?!" Zhou Weiqing picked up the purple Xuanwu bow and quickly chased after him, blocking his path.

  Xiao Se stared at Zhou Xiaopang's silly face, which was actually very cunning, and angrily said: "I've already lost, what else do you want?"

  "If I'm not mistaken, we have a bet going on."

  Xiao Se's eyes changed, "What do you want?"

  Zhou Weiqing took a step forward, leaned in close to him and smiled slyly, saying: "I just suddenly remembered what the content of the bet you have to fulfill is."

  Xiao Se's body slightly leaned back, his eyebrows furrowed, "Don't get so close to me, you'll lose if you gamble. You say it."

  As soon as his words fell, Zhou Weiqing suddenly took another step forward. The distance between them was already less than a meter, and with this one step, he instantly stuck to Xiao Se's body. Before Xiao Se could react, Zhou Weiqing had already leaned in and forcefully kissed him on the face.

  Xiao Se was stunned by his sudden move, and almost instinctively slapped him. Zhou Weiqing seemed to have expected this outcome, dodged Xiao Se's slap with a swift movement, "Xiao Se sister, no cheating, this is the condition you lost to me."

  Xiao Se had come to her senses, her jade-like face was already flushed with shame, but she immediately widened her eyes and asked, "What did you just call me?"

  Zhou Weiqing took two steps back, opening up some distance, and chuckled: "Ruosu sister, stop pretending. Xiao Bogui only has one daughter, others may not know about this matter, but how could I not? I am Zhou Weiqing!"

  "What? You're that little runt Zhou Weiqing?" Xiao Ruse's face was filled with shock, but the next moment she quickly drew out the sword at her waist and pointed it at Zhou Weiqing, coldly saying: "Who are you trying to deceive? That little runt Zhou Weiqing should be only 14 years old, do you look like a 14-year-old?"

  Still having a fever, I went to bed too early yesterday and got up at 6 am. After finishing this chapter, I decided to continue lying on the window sill, hoping to get better soon. Today will probably have two updates, but the second update depends on my physical condition. I'm not sure what time it'll be updated, but there will definitely be one.

  Today, we surprisingly discovered that we have another leader, thanks to the book friend who loves but can't speak out loud, becoming our eighth leader. At the same time, I would also like to thank Kou Xu Zhi Qing, Wu Ya MM and Liu Peng, three book friends who became leaders on the same day.

  Xiaosan's current achievements are the result of every book friend's support. Here, I would also like to thank you for each click, recommendation, reward and evaluation. Continue to cultivate myself...
