Your immortal artifact, his immortal artifact, my immortal artifact!

"Damn it!"

"That wretched hag ruined everything!"

At the sight, Kuye Devil Lord nearly died of rage.

Back on Kuye Island, he had already witnessed Qizhenzi's Deathless Technique. Thus, from the start of the battle, he had been secretly laying his plans, trying to slip past Qizhenzi's notice and infect the core of his soul with poison, making his Deathless Technique difficult to use.

Not only had he survived.

He was not even wounded.

Such a method was bizarre. Though it surely had a fatal weakness, how could she unravel it in so little
