Chapter 1477: Chapter 1477: Besieging Wu Zhukong
Bam!
Sensing the aura fluctuation coming from behind, Wu Zhukong didn’t wait for the move to be fully executed. He immediately changed his move midway, striking backwards with a palm, forcing Qian Sanyuan a few steps back. His aura was also thrown into disarray.
After all, compared to Qingmu Wu, Qian Sanyuan only possesses the Floating Life Realm Peak cultivation, which is a full Great Rank below Wu Zhukong. It’s already quite an achievement that he wasn’t directly knocked out of the fight.
"Just the two of you, still far from enough!"
Facing two opponents at once and instantly gaining the upper hand, Wu Zhukong was feeling smug. It was as if he was a cat toying with a mouse, not using his full strength, and arrogantly scanning around with his eyes.
"Old thief, face your death!"
Just as Wu Zhukong’s gaze was shifting over, a fierce shout suddenly echoed, bringing about a sense of familiarity. He immediately knew who was launching an attack on him at this moment.
The one unable to hold back this time was Lian Yuluo, the Vice Hall Master of Xuanyin Hall, a strong expert of the Floating Life Realm Peak. Unfortunately, such strength seemed to have little use against the more formidable Wu Zhukong. freewёbnoνel.com
Upon seeing Xue Tianao’s miserable state, Lian Yuluo was infuriated. She knew that Lianyun Mountain was the final reliance. If they didn’t fight desperately, they might have to endure the same agony of sect annihilation as before.
It’s a pity that although Lian Yuluo’s attack was subtle and impressive, it was easily dodged by Wu Zhukong. The subsequent hand blade left her with a face as pale as death.
After all, they are a whole Great Realm apart, and Lian Yuluo isn’t a prodigy like Yun Xiao, able to fight across realms, which was still not achievable for her.
Moreover, even if Yun Xiao were here, with a gap of a Great Rank, it wouldn’t be possible to fight and win. Hence, regarding Wu Zhukong’s counterattack, Lian Yuluo admitted that she couldn’t dodge it no matter what.
Whoosh!
However, in that extremely dangerous moment, a rainbow-hued phantom suddenly shot out, ultimately causing Wu Zhukong’s powerful strike to miss, saving Lian Yuluo’s life.
This rainbow-hued phantom was naturally Xue Ningxiang, who had transformed into the Illusion Yin Ghost Body. As the eldest daughter of Xuanyin Hall, how could she stand aside at such a moment?
Unfortunately, Xue Ningxiang’s strength was several levels lower than Lian Yuluo. If it weren’t for the Illusion Yin Ghost Body, she might have perished right then when intercepting that strike.
"Senior Sister, I’ll assist you!"
Seeing the gloomy expression of Wu Zhukong, about to kill Xue Ningxiang at this instant, a sincere, loud voice entered everyone’s ears, and immediately they witnessed a marvelous scene.
Wham...
They saw the Ling Wan, who was just a chubby human a moment ago, suddenly transform into a massive meatball, with a swoosh of wind, charging at Wu Zhukong with great force.
Many people were seeing Ling Wan’s Mixed Element One Qi Body for the first time, and at this moment, they were all surprised, including Wu Zhukong, who was directly involved.
The name of the One-shot Saint Son of Xuanyin Hall was already known across Tenglong Continent. Naturally, Wu Zhukong had heard of it, but he never paid attention to such an outstanding young talent.
However, at this moment, sensing the power contained within that meatball, even Wu Zhukong, a Peak Expert of Lingyun Realm, was somewhat astonished, because it simply didn’t seem like a power a Floating Life Realm Middle Stage human cultivator should possess.
At least Wu Zhukong knew that if he were at Ling Wan’s level, or even at the Floating Life Realm Peak, this kind of meatball impact power would likely injure him.
Regrettably, Wu Zhukong was a genuine Peak Expert of Lingyun Realm, nearly two Great Realms ahead of Ling Wan, so this impact from the Mixed Element One Qi Body ultimately had no effect.
Boom!
Wu Zhukong, with a backhanded palm, directly struck Ling Wan’s meatball form, slapping it away like a bouncing ball for over ten yards.
Yet the bombarded Ling Wan crashed into a distant wall and then rebounded, coming at Wu Zhukong even faster.
"Since you insist on seeking death, then I, the Palace Master, shall fulfill your wish!"
Seeing a mere Floating Life Realm Middle Stage chubby dare to provoke him repeatedly, a trace of killing intent flashed in Wu Zhukong’s eyes. For these companions of Yun Xiao, he harbored no mercy whatsoever.
Hiss!
Just as the killing intent surged in Wu Zhukong’s heart, intending to amplify his attack strength in the next moment and utterly slay Ling Wan, he suddenly felt an unusual blazing heat sneak up from behind.
Although he could sense that the blazing aura wasn’t particularly strong, the inherently cautious Wu Zhukong chose not to face it head-on but slightly moved aside to avoid the sneak attack from behind.
Turning sideways, Wu Zhukong felt the blazing aura brush past his side, and behind him, at some unknown time, a graceful black-clad woman had appeared.
At this moment, the person assisting Ling Wan was naturally Mo Qing, Qian Sanyuan’s favored disciple. With her Pure Yang Immortal Body constitution, if Wu Zhukong had chosen not to dodge but to brace instead, there might have been some unexpected effects.
However, Wu Zhukong’s cautious nature rendered Mo Qing’s Pure Yang Immortal Body attack ineffective. Nevertheless, the imminent lethal strike to Ling Wan was neutralized, achieving Mo Qing’s goal in another way.
"Hmm?"
Seeing himself forced to dodge left and right by several young geniuses, Wu Zhukong felt a surge of anger block his chest. Just as he was about to make his next move, a faint fishy scent suddenly reached his nose.
This fishy scent, compared to the poison Qingmu Wu had used earlier, was indeed a bit weaker. However, the special power it contained forced Wu Zhukong to dodge to the side again.
Following Mo Qing’s attack was Liu Hanyi, Qingmu Wu’s high disciple. Compared to the former’s Pure Yang Immortal Fire, her Immortal Embryo Poison’s effect was undoubtedly more pronounced.
In Liu Hanyi’s view, if Wu Zhukong chose not to dodge and allowed the Immortal Embryo Poison to hit him, this battle might indeed come to an early end.
The potency of the Immortal Embryo Poison was something Liu Hanyi was well aware of, having once used it to poison and kill several Strange Spirit experts far more advanced than herself.
Therefore, even though there was a gap of nearly two Great Ranks between them, Liu Hanyi had every reason to believe that once Wu Zhukong was tainted by the Immortal Embryo Poison, he would be in serious trouble.
Who would have thought that when faced with a poison cast by just a Floating Life Realm Early Stage cultivator, Wu Zhukong would dodge without a second thought, rendering Liu Hanyi’s earlier plans completely futile.
"These damn ants!"
Disappointed at one side, Liu Hanyi watched as Wu Zhukong turned around after dodging the Immortal Embryo Poison, only to see a mere Floating Life Realm Early Stage girl attacking him, and his anger flared.
He, a dignified Peak of Lingyun Realm expert, was being pressured by a group of Floating Life Realm ants, plus an old fellow at the Early Stage of Lingyun Realm, to the point of constant evasion. To Wu Zhukong, this was a great humiliation.
"None of you shall live!"
In a fit of rage, Wu Zhukong shouted loudly. Immediately, he unleashed the combat power of the Peak of Lingyun Realm, and even against seven opponents, he swiftly gained the upper hand.
Nevertheless, Wu Zhukong’s seven opponents, especially those young geniuses, each possessed their unique constitutions, distinguishing them from ordinary early to middle Floating Life Realm cultivators. freewebnøvel.com
Moreover, with their divided advance and joint attack strategies, certain tactics posed a threat to Wu Zhukong, preventing him from achieving victory in a short time, which was indeed remarkable.
Generally speaking, with such a vast difference in Realm, even ten or a hundred opponents might struggle to contend with a numerical advantage. Yet, these six managed to stall Wu Zhukong, which was undeniably a rare occurrence.
Whoosh!
From another spot, a small fiery red shadow suddenly shot out—it was the Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan, who hadn’t joined the battle ring—and at this moment, the target it chose was none other than Wuyan Palace’s Vice Palace Master, Fu Lingxue.
Back on Impermanence Island, Chi Yan witnessed this woman launching an aggressive attack on Yun Xiao. Bearing grudges strongly and regarding Yun Xiao as a brother, he naturally wanted to avenge the past grudge at this moment.
"Beast, get lost!"
Seeing a Middle Level Silver Grade Sky Demon mouse dare to attack her actively, Fu Lingxue only felt that her dignity as Vice Palace Master of Wuyan Palace was being challenged, and she shouted furiously.
It’s known that Fu Lingxue, presently a strong expert having broken into the Peak of Floating Life Realm, wouldn’t be at a disadvantage even against Advanced Silver Grade Sky Demons, let alone this Middle Level Silver Grade Sky Demon.
What Fu Lingxue didn’t know was that the little Mouse Demon in front of her carried the bloodline of a Fiery Holy Rat within, with a combat power far exceeding that of an ordinary Demon of the same level.
Especially when Chi Yan’s form shot out, his mouse body instantaneously expanded, causing his Demon Meridian Qi Cultivation to surge significantly.
Although Chi Yan hadn’t broken through to a level equivalent to Advanced Silver Grade Heavenly Spirit, just contending against Fu Lingxue, who stood at the Peak of Floating Life Realm, wasn’t too difficult anymore.
As the fierce battle erupted here, Wuyan Palace’s Great Elder, now one of the remaining Heavenly Rank Middle Stage Floating Life Realm experts, had already locked onto Heavenly Hospital’s Dean, Guan Rufeng.
From then on, all the experts who had reached the Heavenly Rank Realm joined the intense battle. However, for the onlookers, they didn’t favor Lianyun Mountain’s affiliates, believing the current stalemate was soon to be broken.
Of course, among these onlookers were several Floating Life Realm experts, but they clearly didn’t want to or dare to enter such turbulent waters, as it could easily backfire on them.
