After Su Jikuan successfully struck twice in succession, instead of dodging, he reached out to grab Shi Chun.
Seeing Shi Chun suddenly counterattack with a nacing expression, he was taken aback. He didn't understand; those two 'Star-shattering Fingers' should have crippled Shi Chun's arms, even if they didn't, they should have caused serious injuries. How could Shi Chun still be so agile?
Was the torn flesh and bloodied state just an act?
What he didn't know was that beneath Shi Chun's battle armor was a defensive treasure robe. His 'Star-shattering Finger's' power that landed on the blade could indeed cause the tiger's mouth to crack, but hitting Shi Chun's body and arms was another matter, because the treasure robe also had sleeves.
This brief exchange of blows allowed no room for even a mont's hesitation or distraction.
Even though Su Jikuan's cultivation was profound and his reaction speed fast, he was already at his opponent's side. Faced with the all-encompassing palm power attack, it was too late to dodge.
He was still wary of so peculiarity in Shi Chun's palm power attack. While desperately dodging, he also frantically unleashed a palm strike.
The explosive burst of powerful mana from a full-force palm strike was enough to flatten a mountain, unleashed in a crazy torrent aiming to disrupt the all-encompassing palm power attack coming at him.
His palm power was also released in an encompassing manner. This kind of unfocused power made a more impressive noise, causing clouds to move in all directions.
Even though the power wasn't concentrated, its chaotic force was enough to instantly turn any low-level cultivator into dust, assuring that not even a scrap of flesh remained.
His reaction was undeniably quick.
Yet, after the strike, he realized sothing was wrong. The violent palm power he had unleashed seed oddly abnormal, leaking like a sieve, with strange force penetrating through.
Indeed, Shi Chun's palm power had so odd characteristics!
Su Jikuan's expression changed drastically, but it was too late to dodge. His fingers darted back and forth to frantically attack the peculiar palm power that was coming at him.
At this mont, he couldn't care whether his dispersive 'Star-shattering Fingers' might mistakenly kill Shi Chun.
Recalling the fate of several expert interceptors before, he knew what could happen. He couldn't care about the commander's order to capture a live one. Agitated, he wouldn't hesitate to kill even the daughter of the Xuanji Token Master, so now it was naturally about killing the enemy first to ensure his own safety.
Shi Chun's expression changed drastically as well because the faint golden cracks unleashed by Su Jikuan were damaging the structure of his 'Demon Dispel Hand' palm power. The densely radiating parts of the palm power were disrupted, which was the first ti he had seen soone directly break through his 'Demon Dispel Hand' palm power.
Fortunately, Su Jikuan was already too late with his subsequent attack, and three strands of palm power still broke through his external defensive spell.
When these three palms struck him, it surprised him sowhat; it was as if they lacked substantial force and didn't even make his body sway, making him wonder if it was a false alarm.
But imdiately, he felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth as he discovered that he couldn't stop the three streams of palm power from spreading within his body despite trying to mobilize all his mana.
Boom, Shi Chun was also pushed far away by the powerful energy of the initial palm strike he had thrown.
The following chaotic 'Star-shattering Fingers' forced Shi Chun to quickly duck and raise his arm to shield his face.
Boom boom boom...
Several 'Star-shattering Fingers' struck Shi Chun's battle armor one after another, causing his body in mid-air to tremble violently and retreat chaotically.
But it still didn't damage the battle armor. Even though the Beiju Commander Lan She had a grudge against Shi Chun, he couldn't help but exclaim while staring at the mirror image, "Good armor!"
He was very excited; once they captured Shi Chun, it would an this treasure armor would fall into their hands as well. If Su Jikuan could gain this treasure armor's assistance, it would be like a tiger gaining wings, making subsequent decisive battles promising.
He now felt that being humiliated by Shi Chun earlier might not have been a bad thing. Indeed, fortune and misfortune are interdependent in this world!
The other commanders in the command centers also changed their expressions. They thought the sa way as Lan She, but what made Lan She happy was becoming their imminent concern, thus becoming a variable for those who were overtaken by events.
Their gaze on the mirror image suddenly flickered, only to see Shi Chun, who was retreating after being hit, suddenly flash a silver light in his hand and throw out so kind of treasure.
It suddenly enlarged, the silver light disappeared, and it was evidently so kind of magical treasure.
Lan She's heartstrings tightened, worrying that whatever Shi Chun could throw out at this mont must be sothing significant.
It was indeed a magical treasure, but to Shi Chun, it was one of the least significant in terms of power among all his magical treasures. It was none other than the 'Immortal Strangling Silk.'
Under normal circumstances, this magical treasure could not withstand Su Jikuan's 'Star-shattering Finger's' destruction. Su Jikuan could easily snap the threads with a single finger. Moreover, its ability to capture simply couldn't entrap Su Jikuan.
Not only couldn't it entrap Su Jikuan, but its speed would likely be insufficient against many experts present.
However, Su Jikuan had been hit by his 'Demon Dispel Hand,' and seeing Su Jikuan's response lose initiative, he had realized sothing.
Furthermore, although the 'Immortal Strangling Silk' was weak, it was fortunately usable even if one or several threads broke. He didn't fear the destruction from the 'Star-shattering Finger'; it could still form a net withstanding the finger strikes.
He didn't dare to easily bring out magical treasures like the 'Soul-breaking Bell' again, as the 'Three Corpses Mirror' had taught a painful lesson.
Knowing the 'Immortal Strangling Silk' couldn't subdue Su Jikuan, he still intended to use it, not for anything else but in hopes of inflicting so minor wounds.
Because he was about to draw his blade!
An ember-red blade suddenly appeared in his hand, with a broad back and a long handle. In the fluctuating light and shadow, the blade bore erald cloud-like patterns.
As soon as the blade appeared, a thick scent of blood rolled out.
Blood mist from the torn tiger's mouth on Shi Chun's hand was imdiately absorbed by the blade, and the alert Shi Chun quickly cast a spell to enclose the wound with green qi, stopping the flow of blood.
He didn't dare to expose the blade to the front but instead concealed it behind his back with his armored body offering cover.
The speed of the dodging Su Jikuan indeed slowed considerably. Shocked and angry, he fell into the net. His 'Star-shattering Finger's' force darted frantically, and whether due to panic or the 'Immortal Strangling Silk's' expanding changes, much of the force shot through the grid, only hitting the air while also breaking several threads.
Breaking one thread in one grid ant nothing for the 'Immortal Strangling Silk' with its nurous grids. Ultimately, it still enveloped Su Jikuan, with the 'Immortal Strangling Silk' completely ensnaring him at the scene.
Seeing this scene, Lan She was flabbergasted, his heart leaped into his throat.
The other commanders in front of their mirrors, unfamiliar with the treasure, assud it to be a significant treasure to ensnare Su Jikuan so easily, exclaiming, "What treasure is this?"
Everyone's attention was entirely on Su Jikuan's sudden fate, thus not spotting the ember-red treasure blade Shi Chun had drawn at the first opportunity.
The suddenly tightening 'Immortal Strangling Silk' was held off by Su Jikuan's arms. To him, the net was nothing crucial; the dire situation was the uncontrollable crisis within his body.
Realizing sothing was wrong, despair and rage showed in his eyes, shattering his previous arrogance completely.
"Yah!" he suddenly roared, using his imnse strength to forcibly tear the silk threads despite the bloody scratches opening on his hands, and despite the threads tightening around his body. Upon trying, he knew the net's binding force couldn't take his life, knowing the true threat lay on the opposite side.
Even if he were to fall here today, he wouldn't want to let Shi Chun on the opposite side go, intending to drag him along.
His hands ripped through the net, dragging it grimly towards Shi Chun. His fingers darted rapidly, showering 'Star-shattering Finger' force like a storm upon Shi Chun.
With one hand hiding the treasure blade behind, another bracing the chest-mounted false faceplate, Shi Chun aligned it directly with the helt's snap as he pushed it upward.
The abrupt ghost face on his chest transford into a sinister mask at this mont.
The hysterically charging Su Jikuan aid right at him, intent on risking his life.
Shi Chun, revealing the sinister mask to the public for the first ti, shouted atop his head's red plu while holding the blood blade on his back, "Kill!"
With his body springing explosively forward, the Cloud Stepping Boots stepped rhythmically, neither dodging nor avoiding. Despite the 'Star-shattering Finger' force storming ahead, he faced it directly, bursting out with sheer resolve that decided victory or death.
The opponent's finger force could break his 'Demon Dispel Hand' palm power, continuing to withstand three successive palms longer than others. He vaguely felt the opponent's cultivation technique could sohow neutralize his killing moves, so he didn't dare to drag on.
Afraid that delay might lead to sothing adverse, he knew his ti to fight desperately had co. Facing the opponent's hysteria, he moved forward with relentless determination!
