San Tian Liang Jue
Chapter 735 Harem Arc (27)
"That's... a slingshot?" Ji Xuanzong laughed. "Ha... are you crazy? You think you can break my Sacred Essence Divine Armor with that?"
"Feng Liaozhu!" At this moment, Ji Fenglong, who was far away, also reminded loudly, "His Sacred Essence Divine Armor is extremely strong and unyielding, stronger than my protective qi shield and the Wall of Sacred Essence combined..."
"I know." Feng Bujue didn't appreciate the sentiment, interrupting him directly, and said, "I just poked his defensive field with my finger... I know exactly how strong it is better than you do." He raised his right hand. "Didn't you see I broke two fingers?"
Ji Fenglong was speechless. She really hadn't seen Jue-ge break his fingers just now, because the latter was acting completely nonchalant.
"Hmph... you're quite good at enduring pain." To be honest, Ji Xuanzong had only just noticed that Jue-ge was injured, but he still had to pretend that he had seen through it long ago, and smiled, "I think... you should still let your two wives come and help you. The three of you working together might have a chance of winning."
Ji Xuanzong was taking a great risk by saying this. In fact... he was very worried that Jue-ge's two "wives" would rush out to help their "husband," but that was precisely why he had to say it.
To put it bluntly... this was a form of reverse psychology. The more he provoked, the more embarrassed his opponent would be to ask for help.
"Hey, Ji, you can chat and argue with Feng Bujue however you want, but don't drag me into it." Xu Huishang, who was watching the battle, heard something that made her very unhappy again. She glared at Ji Xuanzong and said, "This is my final warning... if you say anything else nonsensical, I'll help him chop you up."
Ji Xuanzong was baffled when he heard this, and thought, "What's going on? I didn't say anything about her, did I? Could it be that she means... she can't be mentioned in the same sentence as Feng Bujue? Hmm... so that means... this Feng Liaozhu and his fourth concubine have been arguing recently..." He calmed himself down and quickly banished these chaotic thoughts from his mind. "Forget it... just in case, I won't mention these things next time. Anyway, his two wives haven't shown any intention of helping him."
"Hey, Ji!" Then, Feng Bujue's stern shout drew Ji Xuanzong's attention back. "You better see clearly how you're going to die!" As he spoke, the slingshot in his hand was pulled to its limit (because his right index and middle fingers were injured, he was using the back of his thumb to pull the bow).
Seeing that his opponent was so full of confidence, Ji Xuanzong naturally didn't dare to be careless. Having fought to this point, the people of Broken Sword Teahouse had repeatedly done things that defied the common sense of the Sacred Essence World. Under this premise, no matter how Jue-ge launched his attack, Ji Xuanzong would be wary.
Whoosh—
In the next second, Jue-ge used the [Aggression Like Fire] from the six orbs as ammunition, and fired it at his opponent.
"Aura Immortal Shield, Sacred Essence Unite!" When Ji Xuanzong saw that his opponent was actually using a "Xiantian Spiritual Treasure" as ammunition, he knew that this move was no small matter. He immediately combined the Heavenly Tome Mystic Art with his own cultivation technique, merging the two methods into one... creating a thick force field around himself.
However... the earth-shattering strike was unstoppable.
[Yi Da] was a legendary-grade, consumable ammunition-type weapon, and its characteristic was to enhance the "destructive power" of the ammunition to an incredible degree. An object shot out by Yi Da... even a common pebble, would have the power of a sniper bullet; while a clod of mud could become as powerful as a cannonball.
Back then, Feng Bujue had used valuable jewels as filling, and was already able to instantly kill small bosses in the script... now that he had filled it with a "perfect" quality orb, the power was simply unimaginable...
In the blink of an eye, a Nine Yang True Dragon flew out from the orb, swirling and rolling, rushing out with lightning speed.
The entire street was filled with a scorching energy, and the luminous trees on both sides of the street emitted an eerie purple light under the orange-red glow.
"Brother Ji!" In that instant, Yin Loulan, who was entangled with Uncle Waste Chai, revealed an unprecedentedly nervous expression. While shouting, he had already rushed towards his companion regardless of his own safety.
But... he was powerless to do anything.
The giant dragon covered in explosive flames... was like a raging pillar of fire, swallowing everything in its path... and attacked Ji Xuanzong. The latter's defensive force field only lasted for less than two seconds before collapsing in despair.
Ji Xuanzong didn't even manage to let out a scream before he was swallowed by the flames, turning into a standing, charred corpse.
This wasn't the end of it. Seeing that the dragon flames had passed, Feng Bujue took advantage of the situation and patted his horse forward, adding a punch to the back of the charred corpse's neck (where the fatal point was located). This punch completely extinguished any possibility of Ji Xuanzong's revival... his entire body collapsed and turned to ashes, starting from the head.
In the more common language of the Sacred Essence World, this was called the annihilation of both body and soul.
"Ah—" Seeing his close friend die, Yin Loulan's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he roared madly as if he had gone insane.
His sorrowful feelings were overflowing... even bystanders like Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que couldn't help but look aside.
And Ji Fenglong, who was beside them, revealed a very complicated expression... Ji Xuanzong was, after all, her closest brother, and even if he had a hundred wrongs, he had never driven his own sister to the point of no return... Thinking of this, Ji Fenglong's expression dimmed a little. If she was the one in control of the situation today... presumably, she would still have left her brother a way out.
"Hmm... as expected of the Heavenly Tome." A few seconds later, Feng Bujue spoke. "Even though the owner has been burned to ashes, the item is still perfectly intact."
As the killer of the Boss, he was surprisingly calm. His expression... was as if he had done something perfectly normal, and after finishing it, he would do whatever he was supposed to do.
"Feng—Bu—Jue!" Yin Loulan's long howl shook the sky as he raised his sword and jumped up. "Pay with your life!"
Golden light burst out suddenly, and sword shadows filled the sky.
In that instant, the Kongtong Seal light shining down from above Yin Loulan's head changed its state, becoming a layer of humanoid light film tightly adhering to the surface of his body.
The pinnacle of swordsmanship, the burning fire of hatred, merged into one at this moment...
Even Yin Loulan himself didn't expect that Ji Xuanzong's death would allow his cultivation to break through to a new realm.
"What's going on..." Feng Bujue noticed the changes in the other party's data at the first moment, and thought, "This guy was only slightly stronger than Ji Xuanzong just now... and his combat power has doubled in just ten seconds..."
Before he could finish his thought, Yin Loulan's twin swords had already arrived.
At this moment, Jue-ge's advantage in speed had actually vanished; if he didn't maintain the activated state of [Spiritual Consciousness Convergence Technique - Modified], Yin Loulan's speed would be even faster.
Clang clang clang clang clang...
In an instant, the sound of gold and iron clashing as rapidly as a storm rang out.
All that could be seen were two swift shadows, one gold and one red, moving in a staggered pattern, twisting together like a braid, and soaring from the street surface to the sky at high speed.
Most of the bystanders could no longer see the movements of the combatants clearly...
However, Luther and Twenty-Three could still see clearly... At the moment, Feng Bujue was wielding a [WJQ-308 Military Shovel] in one hand and a [Must-Break Defense Blade] in the other, using zero-time difference calculation, with his body techniques fully activated and his mind exhausted... barely managing to parry Yin Loulan's fierce attacks.
"Not good..." Twenty-Three looked at the sky and murmured, "If this continues... he will lose."
Luther replied, "But... at this time and place, no one can help him..."
"No." Twenty-Three turned her gaze. "There's still one person here who can intervene in a battle of this level."
"You mean..." As he spoke, Luther also looked at "that person" with her.
