Li Rong imdiately completed the set of hand seals that he had already prepared, sending dozens of jiangshis roaring threateningly toward the Blood Jade Figs that Gu Suihan had thrown toward Mu Tian and Yan Wuheng.
Li Rong, youre asking for it! bellowed Yan Wuheng furiously. A 15-centiter fla surrounded his large sword as he slashed away at the oncoming jiangshis.
Yin Yang Great Compassion, Sacred King of the Spirits! Mu Tian was equally furious. The tiny bell in his hand rang continuously, sending out ear-piercing rings while pink poisonous powder shot out from Mu Tians body.
A ferocious-looking nine-ter tall monster with blurred facial features and a lustful air around it appeared behind Mu Tian instantly. It had one head but eight arms and each arm held a strange-looking weapon. The creature's sheer size was imposing enough to put pressure on everyone else.
Sacred King of the Spirits, forward! Mu Tian touched the ground lightly and flew towards the jiangshi coming his way. His expression remained frosty as he made a hand seal and thrust it forward. The Sacred King roared at the sky, and its eight arms hacked at the jiangshi with such force and speed they made loud swooshing noises.
Their weapons glead like the grim reapers sickle as they slashed away at the jiangshi. A sickening slicing noise could be heard as the jiangshi was quickly covered in dozens of wounds that asured half an inch deep.
I knew that was going to happen. Gu Suihans other hand looked like a claw as he soundlessly tried to grab hold of Mo Yuluos fair wrist.
Humph! Mo Yuluo didnt panic at all. Instead, she used her left hand to throw a talisman at Gu Suihans hand and raised her sword with her right.
A Bone Eroding Talisman! Gu Suihan was alard when he realized which talisman was and imdiately withdrew his hand to avoid its attack before stretching it towards the Soul Freezing Sword that was coming for his arm.
Inches Away Ends of the World! The two of them were only a ter apart, and Mo Yuluos sword was only a few inches away from Gu Suihans arm. But she suddenly felt a trendous weight on her arm before Gu Suihan moved further away from her at an incredible speed. He had beco nothing but a black dot in the distance in just the blink of an eye.
The sudden turn of events shocked her, and she froze on the spot. How could this even be possible? Gu Suihan had moved as quickly as an Origin Core cultivator.
Hoho! Gu Suihans faint laughter rang in her ears as he suddenly reappeared and thrust his sword towards his waist.
What sorcery was that? Mo Yuluo was perspiring. What she witnessed earlier had clearly frightened her.
At the sa ti, her wrist quickly rotated to block Red Dust from stabbing her, and she thrust it towards Gu Suihans abdon.
Heavenly Wind Finger! Gu Suihan brought Red Dust up to block her sword while flicking his left finger towards her. More than ten tiny little knives the width of willow leaves flew towards Mo Yuluo.
The knives glowed brightly and looked like shooting stars.
ROAR! A terrifying roar was directed at Gu Suihan from the side, and the air instantly stank. Li Rong had summoned his bronze corpse again, and it was swinging its huge fists toward Gu Suihan.
Screen of Frosty Air! Mo Yuluo shouted as her sword sliced through the air, creating a wall of ice that blocked the knives from Gu Suihan. Her dress flapped in the wind as she flew towards Gu Suihan.
Gu Suihan was busy trying to avoid the attacks of the bronze corpse, so this was her chance. Her long sword rang loudly like a phoenix soaring into the sky. She had a stern look on her pretty face as she stood still in midair. She cut her fingertips and allowed the blood to flow onto the sword. Her hands ford hand seal after hand seal so quickly that they were nothing but a blur.
Sounds from Hell, Tons of Frost! Let the blood be led by my sword! Mo Yuluos charming face turned whiter and whiter as she continued to form hand seals. She looked even more srizing as blood dribbled from her lips beneath the cloudless sky.
anwhile, Mu Tian had chopped that jiangshi in half and picked up the Blood Jade Fig that had landed on the ground. The Sacred King illusion behind him slowly faded, and he sat down weakly on the ground covered in the slly remains of the jiangshi to smirk at the grim-faced Li Rong standing not too far away from him.
Your plans didnt work out, eh? Youre too young and green to outsmart us! said a red-faced Yan Wuheng with a laugh after he exhaled deeply from the fight earlier, picked up his heavy sword, and caught the Blood Jade Fig that Mu Tian threw him.
Im not your match, so I wont continue this fight, said Li Rong calmly. He didnt seem discouraged at all. But there was a grim look in his eyes when he looked around at the jiangshis that lay in pieces everywhere.
Its snowing? Mu Tian looked up and wondered aloud after he felt sothing fall on his face.
Thats not snow. The laws of nature that govern this secret realm are ssed up, so its impossible to experience the four seasons here, said Yan Wuheng flatly. He had a grim look in his eyes as he watched Gu Suihan fight Mo Yuluo. Loud explosions constantly filled the air.
Thatsthats the Light of Heavenly Frost! exclaid Mu Tian in shock when he followed Yan Wuhengs gaze and connected the technique that Mo Yuluo had executed with the rapidly falling temperatures.
Wed better run for it. They exchanged glances and ignored Li Rong as they pasted a stack of Lightweight Body and Rapid Escape talismans on themselves. They ran like the wind into the distance and didnt even turn back.
Li Rong gritted his teeth as he watched Gu Suihan dodge his bronze corpse repeatedly despite how hard the bronze corpse was attacking Gu Suihan. He pulled out another bag and looked a little reluctant as he commanded, Nine Corpses of Destiny, here is my blood sacrifice.
He bit his tongue hard enough for it to bleed, then drank it down.
The bag instantly grew in size and opened up to let out nine muscular and frightening-looking corpses covered in gleaming tal. The nine of them quickly surrounded Li Rong in a strange formation.
The foul-slling corpses that had been hacked to pieces by Mu Tian and Yan Wuheng earlier seed to be attracted to these nine corpses and began flying towards Li Rong.
Giant Millstone of Flesh and Blood! yelled Li Rong loudly as he drew mysterious lines in the air before thrusting his arms forward.
KEBABOOM! Boom after boom resounded as the remnants of the corpses slowly ca together to form a gigantic and grotesque-looking millstone of bones, lumps of flesh, and random internal organs.
The millstone grew bigger and bigger, and the volu of the explosions grew louder as well.
The bloodied millstone that asured nine ters across and one ter in height was finally fully ford when it had rolled within a hundred ters of Gu Suihan. As it moved, so pieces would fall off from ti to ti, leaving an unmistakable trail of darkened blood behind it.
I cant fight this off. I need to run right now! Gu Suihan had noticed the creepy and gross millstone rolling towards him, and the rapid decrease in temperature plus the constant attack from above by the tall bronze corpse set off all the alarm bells in his head. He raised his sword to block one of the bronze corpses attacks and tried to use the impact to help him escape more quickly.
Trying to run? Li Rongs expression was nasty as he noticed Gu Suihans nimble moves.
Heaven and Earth Destiny Defining Talisman! This was sothing Li Rong had received from his father, a talisman that only a talisman maker at Origin Core could make. This thing cost at least 3,000 Spiritual Stones in the open market.
If this talisman landed on an Origin Core cultivator, he would lose all his internal Qi and feel a mountainous pressure on his body. After just 15 minutes, the cultivator would be unable to fight anymore. The effect on a Foundation Establishnt cultivator would probably be much worse.
It was a waste to use it on Gu Suihan, but Li Rong decided to go all out to get that item in Gu Suihans possession1.
Crap! Thats a talisman that can change the laws of nature! Gu Suihan was even more alard and started to summon the spiritual energy within him. Red Dust whined at an ear-piercing pitch like an injured animal. A murderous air carried a tinge of red as it surrounded Gu Suihan imdiately.
He started contemplating his options.
Ghostly Shadow Seven Stars? That needed ti to execute. He didnt have ti for that.
Send Suihans soul out? This secret realm was lacking in Qi, and the laws of nature governing it were ssed up. If it collapsed from being unable to withstand Suihans souls power, he wouldnt even get the chance to cry in regret.
Inches Away Ends of the World? Nah.
All the techniques and spells that he had amassed from his previous life ran through his mind like a gushing river, but he eliminated them quickly. Either he wasnt at a sufficiently high level to execute them, or he didnt have the ti it took to execute them. Or he didnt have the other items that were required for execution.
It seed like Gu Suihan had finally been pushed into a corner.
The snow fell more and more heavily, covering an area several kiloters wide. The long sword in front of Mo Yuluo as she remained in midair had turned entirely transparent. Mo Yuluo had activated the runes inscribed all over the sword's body, and she had even removed the seal within her sword.
The frosty winds were so strong that they sliced through everything in their way. The freezing temperatures trapped Gu Suihan within its reach. That powerful talisman was flying slowly but surely towards him. The bronze corpse kept launching attacks on him, and that disgusting wheel of corpses was also getting closer and closer.
Bootleg Clacker Snacks:
Ever had apple chips? Just chop up so sour apples (like granny smiths) and put them in your oven, preheated to the lowest possible temp. Leave them there until they have been thoroughly dried out, and season them to taste (I recomnd cinnamon if you like apple pie). Please dont burn your house down; alternatively, you can just use a dehydrator.
This is referencing the item that he had stolen from the tax ship ntioned back at the beginning of the story (the thing filled with mysterious energy).
