It is well known that there are two types of creatures in the world that absolutely cannot be provoked.
The first is women, and the second is mad women.
Now, the Queen Mother of the West belonged to a third type.
A woman with strength, and who was also mad.
As Zhang Tian's words fell, it was clear that the Queen Mother of the West had been enraged.
Her aura surged madly, and at the same time, the entire cave began to shake.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, she struck out with a palm.
It was aimed directly at Zhang Tian's vital point.
The speed was so fast that even Hu Bayi had no time to dodge.
"Azure Lightning!"
Zhang Tian swung out fiercely, and behind him, the shadow of a Qilin appeared.
The azure Qilin let out a roar, and a lightning barrier materialized.
The peach wood sword also emitted bursts of light.
"Bang."
Her palm struck Zhang Tian's protective shield.
The powerful aura sent Hu Bayi, Fatty, and even Shirley Yang flying.
As for Zhang Tian's shield, it shattered after just one block.
Zhang Tian was also sent flying several meters.
"Bloodline awakening, not simple. To reach this point at such a young age, are you the Son of Heaven?"
Upon seeing Zhang Tian withstand her palm strike, the Queen Mother of the West looked at him with interest.
She was confident; even if Zhang Tian had broken her formation, as someone who had dominated this region for over a thousand years, she possessed her own pride.
"Son of Heaven? Sorry, I am not."
Zhang Tian waved his hand.
"Shall we talk now?"
"Remove the curse from my brother, and we will leave this place immediately, never to set foot in Kunlun again."
Zhang Tian looked at the Queen Mother of the West.
Since this being possessed intelligence, Zhang Tian naturally chose to negotiate.
As a person from Xia, Zhang Tian's greatest preference was not fighting, but negotiation.
While fighting could lead to the acquisition of resources, it also put oneself in danger.
If a deal could be struck without danger, that would be ideal.
It was like Xia's approach to international relations, always upholding harmony and a win-win situation.
Zhang Tian naturally wished for the same.
"Let him go? What about my Kunlun Divine Palace?"
"I need a guardian here."
"Why don't you be it?"
She said indifferently, looking at Zhang Tian.
"Moreover, you have already crossed my bottom line, breaking my formation, my true form, and even damaging my cultivation. Do you think we can still talk?"
She continued, listing her grievances.
Zhang Tian understood in his heart that there was no room for negotiation.
He took a deep breath and nodded seriously.
"Understood."
"I will be your guardian, that is your wishful thinking."
"Also, I just want to say, your symbiotic system, while powerful, cannot truly achieve perfect immortality."
"Furthermore, this world no longer has a place for you."
As Zhang Tian spoke, lightning arcs flickered on the peach wood sword.
A blue Qilin rose behind Zhang Tian.
Zhang Tian had decided to fight this being.
Zhang Tian knew he certainly couldn't win alone, but he had the advantage of numbers.
Furthermore, he didn't believe that Queen Jing Jue wouldn't intervene.
Based on all their previous conversations, Zhang Tian had guessed that Queen Jing Jue would most likely make a move.
"You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. It doesn't matter if you disagree; after you die, I will make your physical body into a puppet."
She said, a touch of malevolence appearing on her heroic face.
"She has become a demon."
Hu Bayi said from the side.
Zhang Tian nodded.
After years of research, her symbiotic system had ultimately failed, and Zhang Tian guessed that she had become a demon around that time.
Moreover, the fact that she had gone mad just from Zhang Tian's brief mention indicated that the failure of the symbiotic system was a secret she could not bear to have revealed.
"Supreme Qing Lightning Art!"
Lightning arcs gathered furiously on Zhang Tian's peach wood sword.
Blue lightning began to surge from the surrounding caves.
Zhang Tian intended to unleash his strongest blow.
The Queen Mother of the West, of course, would not stand idly by to be struck by Zhang Tian.
As Zhang Tian began to gather his power, her figure had already vanished from her original position.
Dark shadows flickered incessantly.
She moved like a gust of wind, sweeping through the entire cave.
Fortunately, the cave was spacious enough, otherwise, it would not have been able to accommodate the fight between two deities.
Seeing the Queen Mother of the West disappear, Zhang Tian's feet flashed, and he moved like a phantom.
Under the high-speed movement, Zhang Tian managed to track the Queen Mother of the West's movements.
Zhang Tian discovered that the cultivation techniques the Queen Mother of the West employed were primarily Daoist methods.
In other words, she and Zhang Tian were from the same sect.
Zhang Tian sighed.
He hadn't expected that one day, he, a junior, would have to fight against a senior.
The Queen Mother of the West also noticed Zhang Tian's movements, and she was slightly surprised.
After all, for one person to reach such speed was already very difficult.
When she truly observed Zhang Tian's cultivation, she felt a surge of astonishment.
"In this era, to still be a Dan-breaking stage expert. It seems this fellow truly has some skills, and his fortune is so strong!"
The Queen Mother of the West mused, and at the same time, her eyes gleamed with desire.
If she could turn Zhang Tian into her puppet, his fortune would be hers.
Then, if she tried the symbiotic process again, would it be much better?
Thinking of this, her desire to obtain Zhang Tian became even more fervent.
"Boss is so fast."
"That woman is not slow either. What should we do now?"
Shirley Yang said, looking at Hu Bayi.
Hu Bayi's gaze fell upon a cave on the side.
"Our strength is not very high right now. For someone this powerful, we are just bystanders."
"However, weakness has its advantages. She doesn't have the energy to concern herself with us, so we must quickly find a way to defeat her."
"For a dead person to retain so much strength, there must be another way. Let's search, perhaps there are other energy reserves."
Hu Bayi said.
Being weak did have its benefits.
Just like now, the Queen Mother of the West was entirely focused on Zhang Tian and paid no attention to Hu Bayi and the others.
Therefore, Hu Bayi could freely search for any useful clues.
"Fall!"
Zhang Tian's lightning arcs had fully condensed.
The next moment, the wooden sword descended.
The towering lightning illuminated the entire cave.
The lightning bolt's target was aimed directly at the Queen Mother of the West's forehead.
The Queen Mother of the West, who was in motion, abruptly stopped.
Her eyes instantly emitted golden light.
As golden light appeared, her palm was also enveloped in gold.
Next, a lightning arc as thick as a water tank directly struck her palm.
The cave shook.
The entire Kunlun Mountain trembled.
The snow on the mountaintop began to collapse.
Fatty and the others were flung far away by this shockwave.
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang, however, moved further into the cave.
"That guy, something must be inside if he came out from there."
Hu Bayi murmured, a feeling in his heart that this place was undoubtedly important.
Zhang Tian, seeing the Queen Mother of the West block his strongest attack with one hand, his eyes widened.
This being was too heaven-defying.
"Could it be that her strength has reached a point where no one can defeat her?"
Zhang Tian's heart sank, and at the same time, due to the immense exertion, his internal true qi had significantly depleted.
"Cough, cough."
The Queen Mother of the West coughed lightly, a trace of madness on her face.
"Is it my turn?"
She said, and her figure instantly vanished.
Immediately after, a chill ran down Zhang Tian's back.
