#490 - When a leaf falls, great power comes!
“What comprehension!”
Fairy Linglong softly whispered, her figure dancing gracefully like a butterfly, forcing Gu Zheng back and attempting to launch a fierce attack on Wang Jixuan.
Gu Zheng had already been provoked to anger and his fighting spirit ignited.
As a member of the Immortal Martial Hall, when had he ever been trifled with like this?
This Fairy Linglong was simply not taking him seriously enough.
“Open!”
The bloody aura around Gu Zheng soared, his speed suddenly increasing by thirty percent.
His spear dragged out a curtain of spear shadows, engulfing Fairy Linglong's figure within!
Fairy Linglong clicked her tongue softly.
This person's fighting style was always like this, with more than enough explosive power but lacking in endurance.
Her Azure Lotus Sword Song just happened to perfectly counter him.
However, as a result, Wang Jixuan had already rushed to the front, joining forces with Gu Zheng to launch a fierce attack from above and below.
In an instant, spear shadows covered a hundred miles, and sword light raged like a storm.
Fairy Linglong was momentarily in a somewhat difficult position, but her body was like duckweed, swaying left and right in the wind.
She twisted and turned within the spear shadows, her own mana consumption not even that significant, yet she prevented Wang Jixuan and Gu Zheng from touching even the hem of her clothes.
“Why bother with such futile struggles?”
Fairy Linglong said softly, the power of Gu Zheng's burst already nearing exhaustion.
Wang Jixuan's sword intent suddenly changed, and the Azure Lotus Sword Song stepped into a completely new realm of sword intent.
Fairy Linglong's eyes shone with extraordinary brilliance.
She held her sword, each move aimed directly at the location where Wang Jixuan's true body was hidden.
Wang Jixuan did not dare to confront her head-on, his sword intent shattered by Fairy Linglong in a single exchange, so he proactively hid behind Gu Zheng, his hands beginning to rapidly form seals.
In the life-and-death struggle between immortals, victory or defeat is often determined in the blink of an eye, so when Fairy Linglong and Gu Zheng made their all-out moves, they adopted the means of close-quarters combat and full mana eruption.
But this did not mean that techniques and treasures were useless.
Whether in the Immortal Realm or the cultivation world, what was used most in battles was actually techniques and treasures.
At this moment, Wang Jixuan 'abandoned the near for the far,' and the vast spiritual power within the puppet's body erupted.
Taoist Lightning Technique, Five Thunders Subduing Demons!
Buddhist True Scripture, Great Sun Tathagata Palm!
Demonic souls stirred, Yin winds scattered the five elements!
Various lights shone brightly in the fighting area, Wang Jixuan cast spells to draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, causing it to surge continuously.
The clouds in the sky collapsed, and the great formation here trembled together.
This time, Wang Jixuan had chosen the right approach.
Fairy Linglong was suppressed by the joint efforts of Gu Zheng and Wang Jixuan.
She frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “Trying to swallow more than you can chew!”
But it was still as if she was guiding Wang Jixuan in his cultivation.
Wang Jixuan remained silent, only casting spells repeatedly, using the most powerful techniques over and over again.
The entire valley had been turned into scorched earth, the left and right mountain walls had collapsed, and only the great formation's barrier protected a portion of the mountain.
A hint of coldness flashed in Fairy Linglong's eyes.
She did not dare to delay for too long;
Although if they continued to fight like this, it would not take half an hour for the spiritual power of Wang Jixuan's puppet to be exhausted;
But half an hour was too many variables and too dangerous for the current situation.
Fairy Linglong could not see through or understand the internal strife of Tianluo.
Therefore, she did not hesitate much, her figure suddenly retreating.
Before Gu Zheng could rush forward, she had already used a move that was quite difficult for her.
A treasure lotus rapidly grew, bloomed, and formed a seedpod behind her, her figure almost completely fused with this lotus seedpod.
Three lotus seeds flew out of the lotus seedpod, and then sprouted, grew, and bloomed again.
In the time it took to take a breath, three treasure lotuses swayed gently in the wind.
Gu Zheng dragged his spear shadows and swept across, and the leftmost treasure lotus actively cracked open, from within which a light pink figure darted out, a sword intercepting the spear shadow's attack.
The central and right treasure lotuses slowly opened, and two figures, one green and one white, jumped out, holding tricolor treasure swords.
Wang Jixuan's heart trembled at the sight.
The pink and green figures joined forces to attack Gu Zheng.
The white-clothed fairy was the strongest, as identical to Fairy Linglong's main body, and at this moment rushed straight towards Wang Jixuan.
“Her avatar won't last more than a moment!”
Elder Shao shouted anxiously from behind:
“Hurry, dodge! Endure, and she will suffer a great loss of vitality! That white-clothed one is her main body!”
Wang Jixuan retreated quickly upon hearing this.
But this valley was sealed by the formation, and there was not much space for him to maneuver.
Although Gu Zheng wanted to step forward to protect him, the green and pink avatars both possessed eighty percent of the strength of Fairy Linglong's main body, and the two combined to steadily block Gu Zheng, who was skilled in physical cultivation.
The white-clothed fairy flicked out streaks of training.
Wang Jixuan cast spells with all his might, but whether it was techniques or the magic weapons he threw out, they were all directly shattered and swept away by the sword light.
The other party's Dao realm completely crushed his puppet.
And the other party had no fancy moves at all now, not even willing to waste half a sentence, only wanting his life, only wanting him to die here!
Thoughts raced through Wang Jixuan's mind, the alien soul showed an angry expression, abandoning all fancy methods and focusing solely on the Great Sun Tathagata Palm, colliding head-on with the white-clothed fairy's sword force!
Three moves, Wang Jixuan's alien soul puppet's left arm flew upwards;
Nine moves, a sword pierced through the alien soul puppet's chest, and Wang Jixuan's main body was affected by the sword light, almost collapsing;
Eleven moves…
“You ruthless woman!”
Elder Shao's shout was three points slower than his figure rushing forward.
The white-clothed fairy attacked with a sword;
The stream of light transformed from Elder Shao's avatar had already appeared in front of Wang Jixuan, condensing into a body and flicking out several streams of light to smash towards the white-clothed fairy.
The white-clothed fairy frowned slightly, and the long sword had already penetrated Elder Shao's avatar's throat.
The scene seemed to quiet down for a few moments.
“Teacher!”
Wang Jixuan shouted in despair, his Dao heart stabbed severely.
Even if this was an avatar, it was this avatar that had taught him the art of refining tools for more than a year;
Elder Shao's avatar backhanded the sword blade that emitted immortal light, glared fiercely at the white-clothed fairy, and the streams of light he flicked out suddenly exploded.
He detonated several immortal treasures!
The spiritual power stirred up by the immortal treasures turned into shockwaves, directly blasting the white-clothed fairy away!
Gu Zheng's expression also changed in the distance.
Gu Zheng seemed to have been fighting all along, but in reality, he was not risking his life.
It was just a mission, and he would get a reward from the Heavenly Dao when he went back.
Why would he need to risk his life?
He was already considered a loyal and reliable member of Tianluo by going all out now.
Elder Shao's avatar leaned backwards, and Wang Jixuan hugged him, dragging him backwards.
Wang Jixuan used his spiritual power to try to fill the gap in Elder Shao's avatar, but was scolded back by Elder Shao with a glare:
“Don't waste your spiritual power!”
“I… cough cough… I can't help you too much… I went to find them… they don't want to cause trouble…”
“Wang Zheng, if you can escape, escape quickly, escape quickly!”
Wang Jixuan's main body and alien soul puppet seemed to overlap at this moment.
He pursed his lips tightly, his eyes filled with a hint of bitterness.
He didn't even have time to answer too much, and the white-clothed fairy attacked again, still dragging out sword marks that filled the sky, still with a sword intent that true immortals could hardly resist in two moves.
Wang Daochang suddenly raised his head, anger burning on his Buddha face, and the alien soul was ignited in an instant.
To win this game today, he must first endure this supernatural power of Fairy Linglong's avatar, which was his only chance to survive.
Only by fighting to the death!
He could only fight to the death!
Charge forward with the sword!
Wang Jixuan's alien soul's speed increased sharply, and the long sword flicked out thousands of sword shadows, and these sword shadows vaguely condensed into a phantom of a moon laurel tree.
The sword intent obtained from the Moon God Palace, the sword intent comprehended from the Azure Lotus Sword Song, and the sword Dao insights accumulated by Wang Jixuan's cultivation so far, all erupted at this moment.
The power of the main body's primordial spirit covered the puppet's Dao body.
Not leaving even a trace of spare power!
Dang!
A crisp collision rippled out, and thousands of sword shadows suddenly shattered.
The white-clothed fairy's figure leaned back, and Wang Jixuan's figure flew backwards, but quickly stabilized his position in the backward flight, raised his hand and swallowed dozens of pills, and shouted:
“Crystal cores!”
Amina, who had been waiting for a long time, appeared from the corner, her jade hand gently waving, and two stone slab doors opened at the same time, countless streams of light shooting out from inside, and tens of thousands of crystal cores shot out, and then exploded directly halfway.
Rolling spiritual power surged towards Wang Jixuan's puppet!
The white-clothed fairy frowned slightly, and Amina had hidden again.
Wang Jixuan's figure flew, attacking forward fiercely.
Whether Fairy Linglong's avatar's supernatural power would close first;
Or his alien soul would burn out first;
He didn't know, Linglong didn't know, Gu Zheng, who was fighting fiercely with the other two avatars next to her, didn't know, and those masters of sight who were watching also didn't know.
The latest novel is first published on 69shu.com!
Burning the alien soul;
Burning oneself!
Om, boom!
This valley had been filled with sword shadows countless times.
…
It was said to be a great battle, but it only lasted for a moment.
It was said to be a fight to the death, but in reality, except for Elder Shao's avatar being killed, no one had really died yet.
When the three, white, pink, and green, returned to one, Fairy Linglong's figure reappeared, and she couldn't help staggering back a few steps, her face pale and her lips bloodless.
But she wasn't worried.
The ending had been decided.
In the distance, Wang Jixuan's alien soul puppet was lying in a pool of blood, and there was no intact flesh on his body.
The black scales were shattered, the muscles and bones were broken, the spiritual power inside had been exhausted, and there were countless fatal injuries all over his body.
On the other side, there were several cracks in the chain armor on Gu Zheng's body, and the left and right scapula bones were pierced by qi swords, and he was also seriously injured.
And Fairy Linglong, although her vitality was greatly damaged, was still the one with the highest existing combat power among the three.
She walked towards Wang Jixuan expressionlessly;
A trace of helplessness flashed in Gu Zheng's eyes, and he leaned on the long spear with a broken spearhead, and slowly stood up.
Fairy Linglong flicked her long sword casually, and blood arrows spurted from Gu Zheng's legs, and he knelt down directly.
"Fellow Daoist Gu Zheng, I simply don't want to offend Immortal Martial Hall, it's not that I don't dare to kill you."
Fairy Linglong said without turning her head:
"I'm only acting under orders, and reaching this point is enough. Your superiors shouldn't make things difficult for you."
"Please understand, fellow Daoist, my Wangxian Valley is a small and insignificant place, and I am just a mere Celestial Immortal. I dare not disobey the will of a great power."
Gu Zheng closed his eyes and sighed softly, saying nothing more.
He was indeed no match, and Fairy Linglong had also shown him mercy.
Further away, Wang Jixuan lay on the ground, his eyes seemingly empty.
A hint of pity arose in Fairy Linglong's eyes, but this pity quickly retreated.
She lightly flicked her long sword, and from hundreds of feet away from Wang Jixuan, she was already about to end his life, rather than walking forward to complete a perfunctory ritual.
Such an opponent brought a bitter smile to Wang Jixuan's lips.
He really had used every trick in the book.
Even burning his alien soul, using up sixty percent of the crystal cores he brought with him, and staking all the soul power of his alien soul, he had only barely managed to hold on for a moment.
The gap was too large, there was no way to fight.
However…
Now Fairy Linglong has recovered from her divided form to a three-in-one, her true self reappearing, and her vital energy is greatly depleted, her strength having noticeably declined compared to before.
Whoosh!
Sword light slashed vertically.
Wang Jixuan's alien soul puppet struggled to jump up, only to have its calves chopped off, falling to the ground in a sorry state and rolling a few times.
Fairy Linglong's lips twitched slightly, her face even paler, but she still raised her hands, using all her strength to condense ice-like sword energies.
"Your comprehension is excellent, your talent extraordinary. If you cultivated normally, you might have become a dazzling cultivator of your generation."
Fairy Linglong said in a low voice:
"Unfortunately, my Wangxian Valley doesn't have the fortune to accept a disciple like you!"
Hooking her finger, clenching her fist, sword energy erupted, shooting towards the alien soul puppet!
The alien soul puppet suddenly threw an object towards Fairy Linglong!
The object swelled in the wind, instantly transforming into the size of a normal person, and it was… Wang Zheng's true body?!
Wearing a green robe, the front stained with blood, the Dao rhythm of the Great Ascension stage, yet to ascend to immortality;
Who else could it be but Wang Zheng's true body?
Did the alien soul throw his true body over like a hidden weapon? Could there be some conspiracy?
Fairy Linglong frowned slightly, immediately preparing to sweep the sword horizontally.
Just then!
Fairy Linglong only felt a slight chill appear behind her, and several flying wheels shot towards her.
Fairy Linglong dared not be careless. At this moment, she was also in a state of outward strength but inward weakness. She swept her long sword horizontally backward, deflecting the flying wheels, and also saw the figure that was launching a sneak attack from the shadows.
It was that alien woman with long, deep blue hair.
The corners of Fairy Linglong's lips twitched slightly, ultimately deciding to fulfill this pair of lovebirds' wishes, casually sweeping her long sword upward, a crescent-shaped sword mark surging out.
"Amina, dodge!"
Wang Jixuan shouted.
Amina was already trying her best to dodge. Although it was only a strike from Linglong in a state of greatly depleted vital energy, her strength was ultimately too low. The sword mark came too fast, and her figure was directly sent flying, spurting out streams of blood in the air.
It was precisely Amina's containment that allowed Wang Jixuan's true body to be only a hundred feet away from Linglong.
A hundred feet, a distance that could not withstand an immortal's flash.
Although Linglong didn't understand, she still used all her strength, gripping her sword, rushing forward, and stabbing straight ahead, the sword light like a pillar, about to pierce through Wang Jixuan.
Wang Jixuan's right hand suddenly raised.
Fairy Linglong's pupils shrank violently.
She didn't see anything clearly, but she sensed a Dao rhythm.
A faint, obscure, seemingly nonexistent Dao rhythm;
As if a giant had come from ancient times, descending along the long river of years, drinking wine and composing songs, free and unrestrained, and inadvertently glanced at her.
Wang Jixuan opened his right hand, and a pale yellow leaf floated forward.
The flow of time between heaven and earth became incomparably slow;
The halo blooming from the leaf enveloped Wang Jixuan, allowing Wang Jixuan to narrowly avoid the sword light, his left shoulder being cut off.
Seemingly confirming that Wang Jixuan would not be killed, the leaf trembled gently, and a remnant shadow of an incomplete finger bloomed from within, the finger shadow slowly rippling forward, slowly pointing at Fairy Linglong's forehead.
There was no flashy display, not even any Dao rhythm.
That finger gently pushed, and the light in Fairy Linglong's eyes was instantly extinguished, strands of cracks slowly extending downward from her forehead, and then, with a 'ping' sound, she directly shattered.
The flow of time suddenly returned to normal.
Fairy Linglong was left with only a human-shaped outline, retaining a trace of horrified emotion.
Wang Jixuan sat down out of nowhere, panting heavily. He was just about to stand up and go find Amina, who had been smashed against the formation barrier in the distance and was sliding down, when a powerful, vast, almost endless pressure appeared directly in front of him, pressing down on him.
Wang Jixuan couldn't move a single finger.
This is!
What level of expert is this!
