Looking up, Jingyang saw that countless gray-scaled snakes had suddenly emerged from the air that had been reduced to ashes by Netero's eleven palm strikes.
Jingyang was full of questions, but Netero was not surprised by this change at all.
Since the oath and its constraints are agreed to disappear after a hundred years, they will continue to exist until the agreed time arrives.
This special spirit beast left behind by an old friend was indestructible and could not be killed before that.
Unless a powerful exorcist is hired to remove the oath and constraint between the spirit beast and Netero, it will remain in effect until the moment it takes effect.
In 10 minutes—oh, now it's about 8 minutes—this special beast of thought, my old friend's last thought in this world, will fade away and disappear without a trace...
"Netero! I will not die!"
The face of the middle-aged man reappeared from the surging tide of gray-scaled snakes. He roared, "I am Emperor Kakin! You cannot erase me!"
The gray-scaled snake vortex gradually expanded and then disappeared.
"No matter how my will shifts, I will always exist! Just like my resentment, just like these poisons..."
Upon hearing this, Netero finally frowned slightly.
Gray-scaled snakes rapidly appeared on the ground atop Xian Shui Mountain, both in the front and back sections.
The muscular version of Yun Gu subdued Kurapika, who had defeated Mashu Harrison. Jing Yang and Xiao Shi, along with everyone around them, and the ground and floor... endless gray scale snakes flew upwards, like a rain curtain falling back into the sky, rising rapidly and soon almost completely obscuring the sky above Xian Shui Mountain.
"This is……"
The Rabbit Biyou and the Snake Gailu, who were also on Xianshui Mountain, naturally saw the commotion and looked up to watch.
Amidst the retreating rain of the gray-scaled snake, voices rose and fell: "I am... 'Lone Shadow of Heaven and Earth, Drunk in Dreams'!"
Pong!
All the gray-scaled snakes exploded, spraying out endless gray poisonous mist that enveloped and permeated the entire summit of Fairy Water Mountain.
……
100 years ago, Xianshui Mountain.
Netero, who was then a young middle-aged man, sighed, "I thought you were in Cakin."
Before him stood a frail old man, his body covered in gray cracks. He waved his hand, signaling Netero not to come near him. "I'm a walking source of alien poison now, a poison man! I'm not staying at home to harm the people of Kakin anymore."
This old man was none other than Gro = Grey Guo Rou, the former emperor of Kakin, a martial arts grandmaster who could rival Netero, and nicknamed Sky.
“There must be a cure for you in the Dark Continent,” Netero said.
Gro, covered in gray cracks, gazed at the distant horizon, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Will you save me, Netero?"
“I will save them if I can,” Netero said. “I will do everything I can.”
"Alright!" Groh made up his mind. "Call your son over..."
As he spoke, a wisp of spiritual energy separated from his body and gradually materialized into another identical Gro=Grey Flesh, the only difference being that this old man did not have the dense gray cracks on his body.
Gro, whose body was covered in gray cracks, fell silent. But in Gro's eyes, which were no longer covered in gray cracks, a lively light, as if he were still alive, appeared. "This clone of thought shall be called 'Lone Shadow of Heaven and Earth, Drunken Dream of Life and Death'! For the next 100 years, let him live in my place!"
“I see.” Netero immediately understood his old friend’s plan. “With Bynd’s abilities, he should be able to help you achieve your goal…”
……
40 years ago, Xianshui Mountain.
The other Netero, Biyangde=Netero, looked at the dazed and confused 'Lonely Shadow of Heaven and Earth, Drunk and Dreaming' and laughed nonchalantly: "Hey, old man, this guy has no senses at all. Is it still necessary to continue the oath? Let's just let him be free sooner!"
By Yangde clenched his fists, making a cracking sound. "If you can't bring yourself to do it, then I, as your son, will do it for you, how about that?"
Isaac Netero gazed at the lifeless, puppet-like eyes of "Lonely Shadow of Heaven and Earth, Drunk in Dreams," and pondered for a moment before saying, "It was agreed to be 100 years, so it's 100 years."
“What’s the point of letting him live on for another 40 years?” Byard disagreed.
“I have a plan,” Netero slowly explained his intentions.
Not far away, a blonde little girl in a martial arts uniform skipped over, glanced curiously at the bearded Byonde, then put her hands on her hips and said triumphantly, "Netero! I won, wasn't that amazing?"
Chapter 135 Parasitic Nen Beast
A leaden-gray poisonous cloud billowed and rolled over the top of Xianshui Mountain.
The entire back mountain villa was shrouded in gray poisonous clouds, with only a thousand-armed Guanyin statue faintly rising from within the gray shadows.
The Hundred-Style Guanyin swung her palm, like a whirlwind passing through, cutting a clear path through the dense gray poisonous clouds like an eraser. Then, as if belatedly aware of the change in air pressure, the air swirled up with a gale.
boom! boom! boom!
Amidst the flurry of Guanyin's palm strikes, a calm voice rang out from within the gray mist: "Protruding-eyed fish..." Soon, a powerful suction force drew away all the remaining gray poisonous clouds.
The poisonous wind howled, and in the blink of an eye, the gray mist was completely swallowed up by a huge mouth full of sharp teeth.
Oh?
Netero, who was holding his breath, intending to clear away the poisonous fog as quickly as possible, looked over and saw that the little girl with black hair and glasses among the two little guys who had come closer to watch the battle had materialized a strange-looking vacuum cleaner, which sucked up the poisonous fog that he had dispersed.
A spatial materialization ability? That's quite rare.
Nitro exhaled, the airflow like a sharp arrow, striking the ground and creating a shallow crater.
He looked up at the sky, and Gro's special ability clone, "Lone Shadow of Heaven and Earth, Drunken Dream of Death," seemed to be making a final struggle before it quietly disappeared after exploding into countless snake shadows.
Nitro gazed at the clear sky for a while, then suddenly heard the buzzing of a vacuum cleaner again.
Xiao Di cut a wound on her and Jing Yang's arms, grabbed the 'Bulging-Eyed Fish's' big mouth head, and extracted all the trace amounts of gray mist poison gas that they had inhaled.
Jingyang's wound healed quickly, and he asked in surprise, "What kind of poison is this? I can't feel anything at all."
With the star mark on him, even if he were infected by the Rose Bomb, he could probably stay alive until the very end. He wasn't worried about being poisoned to death by the so-called Emperor Kakin's final self-destruction.
The combination of the star and the small, bulging-eyed fish is simply the nemesis of all poisons.
"I don't know." Xiao Di shook her head. After the detoxification was completed, she casually dispersed the 'Bulging-Eyed Fish' into a cloud of energy to dispel it.
Netero approached. "Could you two do me a favor and check on the other participants of the Fairy Water Mountain Gathering at the back mountain villa? Are they doing well?"
The old man chuckled, "If possible, we'd also like to trouble you two to remove the poison from them as well."
Jingyang estimated that even if he and Xiaodi refused to help, the snake sister of the twelve zodiac signs would still have a way to cure everyone poisoned on the mountain. After all, she was a poison hunter, and this was her area of expertise.
He didn't say anything more, but nodded in agreement, "Of course, putting everything else aside, we still need to save Yun Gu and his brother."
Although the toxicity of this gray fog doesn't seem to be very strong.
Upon hearing the boy's words, Netero knew that he had some understanding of the relationship between Shingenryu, himself, Yungaku, and others. This was not surprising, after all, he was a young man who came to participate in the Sensui Mountain Tournament.
"That's good then," the old man said with a smile. "May I ask which sect you belong to? To have such strength at such a young age is truly impressive."
"No affiliation, from the Sky Arena." Jing Yang couldn't help but ask, "President Netero, Sky Master... who exactly are you? Why did those people you fought just now merge into one, and why do they call themselves Emperor Kakin? Is he really the former emperor of the Kakin Kingdom?"
Netero thought for a moment, then smiled slightly, stroking his brush-like mustache. "Want to know? Sure. Do me a small favor later, and I'll tell you."
Jing Yang honestly replied, "Isn't it the same if Chairman Netero tells us first and then we help? We can't renege on our promises."
"Let's clean up the poison issue first."
Netero waved his hand and walked gracefully towards the front of the mountain, saying, "I'll go take a look ahead."
"No, how are we going to find you again?" Jingyang called out to the old man's retreating figure.
"Someone will be looking for you."
It wasn't clear how fast Netero ran, but his speed was truly as fast as teleportation, leaving a trail of afterimages as he rushed towards the mountain villa in front of him, where the gray fog and poisonous gas in the sky had not yet completely dissipated.
"Let's go."
Jing Yang looked away, instinctively pressing his hand to his chest, "I hope no one's been poisoned..."
Xiao Di wasn't initially enthusiastic about saving others, but after hearing what he said, she immediately became enthusiastic.
"Ok!"
Xiao Di followed Jing Yang back to the back mountain quickly and went to the training ground first.
With the demise of the man who called himself Emperor Kakin, the materialized dreamscapes around Zhehao and the other martial artists also vanished, leaving them sprawled on the ground, exhausted and seemingly unconscious.
With a flick of her wrist, Xiao Di materialized a chainsaw-wielding, bulging-eyed fish.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
The chainsaw roared as Xiao Di, carrying the terrifying chainsaw vacuum cleaner, walked and slashed, leaving wounds of varying depths on the skin of the unconscious martial artists one by one. It looked like she was picking out pigs to slaughter in a butcher shop, sharpening her knife, yet her expression showed no sign of ferocity... Finally, Xiao Di turned on the vacuum cleaner, "Bulging-Eyed Fish, suck all the poison out of their bodies."
After cleaning up the area, and not caring whether the group would wake up, Jingyang and Xiaodi quickly went to the hotel.
Without the waiters transformed by the gray scale snakes, the entire back mountain and the entire hotel became large and empty, cold and deserted, exuding an eerie atmosphere... Xiao Di followed the same method to remove the poison from the people she could find who had fainted in the corridors, rooms, and lobby, and finally went to find Yun Gu and Hart.
Hart was still unconscious, but Yun Gu had already woken up, looking at his tattered clothes and his glasses, which had been crushed by someone at some point, with a puzzled expression.
Hearing footsteps, he turned his head and saw two vaguely familiar figures walking towards him.
Yun Gu had no spare glasses to change into, so he had no choice but to focus his energy into his eyes and use the enhanced vision to compensate for his extremely poor eyesight due to severe myopia. Only then was he able to see clearly that it was Jing Yang and Xiao Di.
"What happened?" he asked hastily, waking Hart, who was fast asleep on the floor.
Jingyang briefly recounted to Yun Gu what he could understand and what he had witnessed. Finally, he looked at the tops of Yun Gu and Hart's heads. Sure enough, like everyone else, the peach petal mark on them had disappeared along with the disappearance of the so-called Emperor Kakin, who was a five-in-one being.
However, while dreams and marks disappear when created by Nen abilities, gray fog toxins do not. That's quite interesting.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
Hart heard the roar of some kind of machine. He opened his eyes groggily and immediately saw a sharp-toothed chainsaw hanging in front of him. He was instantly awakened, his hair stood on end, and he shuddered so hard that he almost wet himself.
Actually, Little Di just held the chainsaw and didn't move the bulging-eyed fish.
Upon learning that they had been poisoned by some kind of gray mist, neither Hart nor Yun Gu were entirely convinced, as they had not felt any discomfort in their bodies.
"Right?" Jing Yang agreed wholeheartedly, raising a finger as a suggestion. "I think so too. How about we do an experiment, without detoxifying first, and see what changes occur in your bodies after half a day or a day?"
Yun Gu nodded. "Alright."
Hart's face paled. "This, this, Senior Brother, isn't this a bit unnecessary?"
Yun Gu laughed and said, "It's alright. Since Zhen Yuanzi made this suggestion, he won't just watch us get poisoned even if something happens."
He gestured to his junior brother with his eyes to calm down.
Hart hesitated, then stopped speaking. Senior Brother Yun Gu wasn't wearing his glasses anymore; he was just staring at people through his 'Concentration' technique, and his gaze was really strange…
