I Am Loaded with Passive Skills-Chapter 3341 - 1673: Pupil Control Two Saints Arrow Delayed, Night Apprentice Beast Feasting_2

Chapter 3341 -1673: Pupil Control Two Saints Arrow Delayed, Night Apprentice Beast Feasting_2

Huang Quan seemed to have his eyes covered by someone, leaping forward without hesitation, diving straight into the net.

This undeniably made the unique existence of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man even more “dreaded.” Dao Qiongcang pondered deeply, and finally concluded:

The apparent abilities of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man are less than one ten-thousandth of the Nine Venerable Seating.

Yet, through “years of accumulation” and the “fermentation of hidden damages,” those tainted by misfortune might never even suspect their demise had anything to do with the Five Decays of Heaven and Man without reflections produced by tools like the “Heavenly Mechanism Brain.”

Dao Qiongcang felt a deep chill upon realizing this.

This concealed, unguarded, and bizarre ability—only known at the brink of death—was something he had only experienced firsthand through Xu Xiaoshou.

The world is aware of Lord Shou’s strength.

Everyone knows his might lies in his physique, spiritual cultivation, ancient swordsmanship, and so forth.

But no one ever seriously thought about it—Xu Xiaoshou’s regenerative power of blood, spirit source, and even mental state… these passive abilities are the true root of his “strength.”

Even someone as formidable as the Eight Gods Kui would feel exhaustion.

Xu Xiaoshou, however, does not tire.

Dao Qiongcang dared to assert that not one of the Ten High Nobles could fully utilize all of Xu Xiaoshou’s offensive techniques, even if they mastered them, because they wouldn’t withstand the energy consumption.

“Xu Xiaoshou has mastered the Life Upanishad. Blood and vitality are eternal for him; his endurance in prolonged combat is understandable.”

“But what about the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?”

Dao Qiongcang did not believe it was possible for someone to achieve zero input and constant output.

Either the Five Decays of Heaven and Man covertly used Engulfing Power to swallow countless heavenly resources and earthly treasures.

Or, with every significant effect he imposes on others, he depletes himself.

“Time will provide me the answer.”

In truth, the erratic madness displayed by the Five Decays of Heaven and Man through the Dao Imparting Mirror had already given Dao Qiongcang an answer.

His only uncertainty was whether it was all a façade.

At this thought, Dao Qiongcang decided to temporarily set aside all actions against the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, focusing on maintaining his distance in the future.

He wasn’t entirely sure whether a fully matured Body of Decay could inflict “significant impact” on the Ten High Nobles in a short amount of time.

“‘Significant’ or not still needs time to determine, but the ‘impact’ itself is undeniable…”

The Dao Imparting Mirror was no longer focused on the top of the Holy Mountain.

But Dao Qiongcang’s gaze seemed to pierce through the Southern Region, directly to the Central Region, where the Lord Cang Sheng sat in a wheelchair, his lips curling into a faint smile.

Little Ai Cangsheng, is it because the Eyes of the Great Path have gone blind that you haven’t shot down the Five Decays of Heaven and Man yet?

Or is it because your judgment is flawed?

…

“Who is that!”

At the top of the Sacred Mountain, when the Five Decays of Heaven and Man caught the attacking claw of Qin Duan with one hand, the gathered saints sensed something unusual.

As Ai Cangsheng looked down from a distance, he realized his attention had been entirely fixated on Qin Duan’s high-altitude status, completely neglecting the bloodshed occurring at the mountain’s foot.

The Power of Decay, calamity’s guidance…

The Yama mask, the orange robe…

“The Five Decays of Heaven and Man?”

A figure crossed Ai Cangsheng’s mind.

In truth, this existence was not even a main focus of his defenses. Even Yama Chief Huang Quan only warranted the occasional glance from him.

Yama’s threat to the continent’s stability wasn’t substantial.

According to Dao Qiongcang’s assessment from years prior, it was merely a small group of eccentric individuals with an obsession for collecting unique eyes.

Ai Cangsheng thought so too.

He himself had the Lei Family’s Eyes, and yet he’d never seen any trace of Yama near the Sacred Mountain Gui Zhe.

It seemed that the group’s ocular fixation included every Lei Family’s Eyes but deliberately excluded the Eyes of the Great Path.

—Cowards who bully the weak but fear the strong.

Ai Cangsheng only began to pay attention to the Five Decays of Heaven and Man after the Abyss Island incident, when Dao Qiongcang’s attitude shifted.

Occasionally struck by a whim, Dao Qiongcang would bring up the name “Five Decays of Heaven and Man” more often than he mentioned Yama Chief Huang Quan.

When asked, Dao Qiongcang wouldn’t explain, instead feigning inscrutable profundity. Over time, Ai Cangsheng stopped inquiring.

Piecing together the details revealed by Dao Qiongcang, the image of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man seemed to amount to nothing more than:

“An incomplete Absolute Body? Or a forcefully conferred Saint? Obtained a semi-saint position on Abyss Island, only to have it snatched by Yu Mo?”

By all accounts, such a “mediocre” and “inferior semi-saint” with unimpressive achievements ought to be easily handled by Qin Duan.

Yet Ai Cangsheng’s suddenly accelerated heartbeat told him something was amiss.

He closed his eyes.

He opened them again.

Within his Eyes of the Great Path, a dazzling array of paths revealed that the Sacred Mountain was shrouded in a layer of crimson bloodlight!

“Calamity…”

He turned back toward the square.

The saints gathered there had paused to watch the unfolding battle, even temporarily halting their plans to head to the Dead Sea.

Each looked calm, making half-hearted jokes, seemingly unconcerned about a semi-saint appearing at the Sacred Mountain and posing a threat on par with Xu Xiaoshou.

“Qin Duan was caught?”

“Is this orange rogue cultivating his physique? But aren’t all the Northern Region physique-cultivating semi-saints already part of the Heavenly Covenant? I don’t recognize this figure.”

“Your Central Region’s? Looks kind of like the Hexagram Saint’s old red-string enforcer, but isn’t he supposed to be red, not orange?”

“He reeks of evil energy—probably from the Southern Region!”

“What’s wrong with a Southern Region semi-saint? Qiu Gu, can you think before you speak? Do you think all we have in the Southern Region is evil techniques? Want me to use the Grassman Nail Curse on you tonight?”

“Uh, my apologies, that was out of line… Look, over there! Things seem to be escalating quickly!”

In truth, this kind of reaction was the most accurate depiction.

Am I being overly suspicious?

Ai Cangsheng started to feel like his role as Hallmaster was turning him into someone as paranoid as Dao Qiongcang.

But one habit Dao Qiongcang had that Ai Cangsheng admired was always to leave some room for maneuvering.

He beckoned with a single finger.

Xi stepped forward quickly, and Ai Cangsheng instructed:
