The Water Escape Technique slightly retreated, and the Curse Gate man stopped, his eyes glaring at the restless man in the human world.

"Disease!"

The Curse Gate man stretched out his right hand and pointed at the restless man in the human world, and with a rustle, a black banner suddenly appeared in the air.

Around the black banner, black gas swirled like dark clouds rapidly churning, and patterns of black evil emerged on the surface of the black banner.

Whimper!

From the black banner came the sound of crying.

Amidst the crying sounds, the black banner beckoned towards the restless man in the human world, and with a puff, countless strands of black smoke surged around the man's body.

The black smoke tumbled, instantly enveloping the restless man in its midst.

"Fucking hell!"

The man in the human world, pushed to the peak of irritability, cursed loudly while using the Sun God Techique to directly withstand the Curse Gate man's Curse Disease Technique.

Two different white lights shone in the midst of the black smoke at the same time, one the Supreme Yang Light, and the other the Five Elements True Gold Light.

The Supreme Yang Light, like lightning descending from the heavens, broke through the black smoke, and the restless man in the human world, protected by the Five Elements True Gold Light, used the Earth Escape Technique to rush out of the black smoke.

However, he clearly did not escape the Curse Gate man's Curse Disease Technique; his whole body turned black, his skin becoming purplish black.

After contracting the Curse Disease Technique, the strength of the man from the human world rapidly declined.

But he clearly had no intention of giving up and continued to use the Earth Escape Technique to charge at the Curse Gate man.

Whoosh!

The man from the human world followed with a move, a dazzling Yang Light, like a sword, slashing from the sky to behead the Curse Gate man.

On the surface of this Yang Light sword, one could faintly see patterns of Divine Texture.

Hum!

The Divine Textures vibrated at the same time, interconnecting like a spider web, unfolding like fireworks in all directions, releasing infinite power.

"Transform!"

The Curse Gate man's face was as cold as ice. While retreating with the Water Escape Technique to dodge the Yang Light sword, he also used the Curse Conversion Technique on the restless man in the human world.

Whimper!

In mid-air, an octagonal black liuli lamp appeared.

The Black Lamp surprisingly emitted a brilliance of black light, and beams of black light fell straight onto the restless man from the human world.

"Ah~"

The man from the human world howled miserably, his body suddenly reddening again as black blood streamed from all seven orifices.

The Curse Gate's abilities were always strange and unpredictable, catching people off guard. The restless man from the human world was no match for the Curse Gate man, who easily wounded him.

"Waste!"

Amidst the sneer of the Curse Gate man, he pointed at the restless man from the human world once again.

Black light appeared at his fingertip, sending out rings of black brilliance.

Curse Transformation Technique!

The face of the man from the human world paled drastically as he panicked, using the Earth Escape Technique to flee in the opposite direction, dodging the Curse Gate man's Curse Transformation Technique.

Among the various Secret Arts of the Curse Gate, the power of the Curse Transformation Technique might not be the strongest, but it was definitely the most eerie and the most feared.

"You came here and now you want to leave?"

The Curse Gate man sneered as he pursued the restless man from the human world with the Water Escape Technique.

"Fucking hell, I was fighting up in front, and you were hiding behind and enjoying the joke."

The restless man from the human world dodged the pursuit while rushing in the direction where Xiao Mu was hiding, continuously cursing at Xiao Mu.

Killing intent surfaced on Xiao Mu's face.

This restless man from the human world was not only foul-mouthed but also extremely hateful.

Xiao Mu had not rushed to make a move just now because he wanted the restless man from the human world and the Curse Gate man to duke it out first, to gauge the strengths of both parties in the process.

Xiao Mu had initially thought the man from the human world was very strong, given his arrogant demeanor.

But to his surprise, upon encountering the Curse Gate man, he collapsed at the first blow.

Boom!

The Yang Light turned into a sword and shot out from behind the man from the human world, striking at Xiao Mu, his gaze ferocious with extreme irritability, "Bastard, you want to gain an advantage lurking in the shadows, I'll cut you down first."

Yellow light flashed as Xiao Mu, with a stern face, used the Earth Escape Technique to evade.

"Fuck!"

The temperamental man from the human world cursed loudly as he saw the Sun God Sword miss his target without the slightest hesitation to stop, and instead it circled around Xiao Mu to make a break for it.

His attack on Xiao Mu was not meant to kill him but merely to force Xiao Mu into revealing himself, so as to create an opportunity for his own escape.

"Human world, heh!"

The man from Curse Gate stopped not far in front of Xiao Mu, a look of disdain on his face.

"Ghost Servant, stop him, don't let him get away!"

Xiao Mu commanded the Ghost Servant with a stern face.

He was determined to fight the man from Curse Gate and had no intention of letting the rash man from the human world off the hook either.

The incessant cursing and the attack from the man had completely enraged Xiao Mu.

"Roger that!"

As the Ghost Servant loudly acknowledged the order, it used the Spirit Escape Technique to intercept from afar, advancing towards the irate human.

"You dog, you think you can stop me?"

The annoyed man from the human world became even more irate upon seeing the Ghost Servant, employing the Earth Escape Technique to close in on the Ghost Servant while cursing and swinging the Sun God Sword right at its head.

This man saw that the Ghost Servant's strength was only at the early stage of the Yin God Realm and believed he could easily kill it.

Indeed, if he were in perfect condition, the man from the human world, with his late-stage Yin God Realm power, could really kill the Ghost Servant easily.

However, this man had first been afflicted with the Curse Disease Technique by the man from Curse Gate and then the Curse Conversion Technique right after. With two curse techniques afflicting him, his remaining strength was less than thirty percent of his usual.

"HOHO!"

With a bizarre chuckle from its throat, the Ghost Servant kept evading the man's attacks using the Spirit Escape Technique while raising the Heavenly Soldier Sword and sweeping it towards the man's head.

Bang!

The Blade Aura and blade formation exploded simultaneously; the Heavenly Soldier Sword released a brilliance several yards long, swirling around the man's head like a living whip.

The man's complexion changed as he realized his power had diminished too much to defeat the Ghost Servant.

In his alarm, while drawing back and avoiding the Ghost Servant's offensive with the Earth Escape Technique, he gathered both the Yang Light and the light of metal and earth to strike at the Ghost Servant.

The Ghost Servant used the Spirit Escape Technique to retreat; its only goal was to entangle the man, not to kill him—there was no need for a life-or-death struggle.

"Human world! Heh! Ridiculous," sneered the man from Curse Gate, looking at Xiao Mu with contempt, "You must be at the mid-stage of the Yin God Realm, right? The man earlier, at the late stage of the Yin God Realm, wasn't even my match. Do you think you can be stronger than him?"

"Maybe," Xiao Mu calmly responded, his eyes still fixed on the man from Curse Gate.

"Very well, I'll see just where you're stronger than he is."

The man from Curse Gate pointed at Xiao Mu and made the first move, "Disease!"

Upon taking action, the man from Curse Gate cast the Curse Disease Technique at Xiao Mu.

Black light appeared in the air, and with it came the Black Banner, out of which, amidst the black clouds, the banner waved at Xiao Mu.

This was an aberration produced by the cultivation of the Curse Disease Technique to a certain level, akin to the Divine Texture on the surface of Xiao Mu's Earth Escape Technique-induced Mutation Yellow Light, enhancing the power of the Curse Disease Technique.

As the black light cascaded down, it immediately enveloped Xiao Mu.

The malevolent force of disease surged into Xiao Mu's body from the outside, beginning to erode his body, intent on afflicting him with a terrible illness.

The moment the black light entered his body, Xiao Mu immediately felt as though a seed of disease had sprouted inside him, all his cells being affected, seemingly on the brink of illness.

But then...

Hum!

Inside Xiao Mu, the Five Elements Divine Light vibrated, and the Five Elements Anti-Evil God Body, this divine technique, activated, producing a strong resistance, preventing the onset of the disease.

However, since the man from Curse Gate was a formidable figure at the late stage of the Yin God Realm, a whole minor Realm above Xiao Mu, even the mutated Five Elements Anti-Evil God Body was not completely able to block the Curse Disease Technique. The symptoms began to appear, bit by bit—Xiao Mu's skin started to turn black.

Seeing the divine light of the Five Elements emerge within Xiao Mu and blocking his Curse Disease Technique, the man from Curse Gate suddenly showed a startled expression on his face.

However, as he saw the disease symptoms beginning to spread over Xiao Mu's skin, the smile slowly returned to the man's face.

Yet, his smile did not last long as he noticed an object suddenly appearing in Xiao Mu's hand.

The Five Elements Lamp.

The Five Elements Lamp hovered above Xiao Mu's head and suddenly shone brightly, emitting the Five-Color Light Spectrum.

The power of the Five Elements Anti-Evil God Body suddenly intensified, instantly suppressing the man from Curse Gate's Curse Disease Technique.

"You... you... how is that possible?"

The man from Curse Gate was astounded, clearly not expecting his Curse Disease Technique to be ineffective against Xiao Mu.

This left the man from Curse Gate extremely terrified as, for the Mutated Beings of Curse Gate, nearly all of their strength relied on the eeriness of their curse techniques. Once the Curse Technique was ineffective, their combat strength would unavoidably drop drastically.
