I Slept for a Thousand Years

One thousand years ago, Xu Jin, the successor to the Kunlun Realm's sect leader, was ambushed and killed by nine powerful experts. At the brink of death, he slashed through the spatial barrier ...

Chapter 168 Would you pick unripe fruit?

I felt absolutely no fear.

His eyes, now flashing like lightning, were fixed on Xu Jin.

"Go to hell!"

The voice of the Fourth Elder, Gong Zhe, carried a hint of electricity.

call out!

After he finished saying that.

His figure flashed by, appearing beside Xu Jin as if he had teleported.

He raised his hand and delivered a chop to the neck.

As the hand slashed towards Xu Jin, lightning surged, its speed and power were extraordinary, far beyond what one would expect from a mortal being.

Do you know why I'm waiting for you?

However, at this very moment...

Xu Jin's calm voice rang out.

The message was clearly transmitted to the ears of the Fourth Elder, Gong Zhe, and the Fifth Elder, Gong Chi.

Whoosh!

at the same time.

Xu Jin's palm flashed past, leaving afterimages, and struck first, piercing Gong Zhe's chest.

There was no pain.

I didn't even feel anything.

Gong Zhe gave a cold laugh.

"I'm already dead. Your attacks are useless against me. Now it's your turn to die!"

Gong Zhe roared, seeing a golden opportunity; he could almost picture himself beheading Xu Jin with a single chop.

However……

Just as his chop was about to strike Xu Jin's neck.

The hand chop stopped.

My whole body became out of control.

The electric current in my hand disappeared.

"What happened?"

Gong Zhe was immediately shocked, a bunch of question marks popped into his head. It was also his first time using the lightning talisman, and he had never experienced anything like this before.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle...

In an instant.

Electricity and light flow.

It went down the arm that Xu Jin had inserted into Gong Zhe and was being absorbed into Xu Jin's body.

"You were in the process of building up your strength just now."

"If I wanted to kill you."

"I can take your life in the blink of an eye."

"but……"

Do you know why I don't kill you?

Xu Jin paused slightly at this point, a bright smile spreading across his face.

"The reason is simple."

Would you pick unripe fruit?

"Now you're ripe."

"It's ready to eat."

Xu Jin didn't treat the Fourth Elder Gong Zhe as a human being at all; he treated him like a tonic.

Since it's a tonic...

Therefore, it is natural to wait until the medicine is at its most potent before taking it.

Otherwise, a lot of the medicine's potency would be wasted.
