Chapter 362: Chapter 83: Trembling
The dog bites Luu Dongbin?
Luu Dongbin bites the dog!
This move was unexpected, even to the dog.
The dark red dog’s legs were tensely straight, clearly shocked, then it began to struggle frantically.
It seems that this Big Dog usually swallows people, but today, it was swallowed instead, an absolute humiliation. Although the Divine Dragon was essentially transformed from Innate Qi and not Jiang Li truly biting, the effect was practically the same.
The crimson flame erupted violently, the dog’s legs stomped the air, creating a loud blast.
With the capability of this Fifth-grade Demon Beast, Jiang Li could only catch it off guard and bite it once. There was no way he could actually trap it.
The Dragon Teeth clamped on the upper body of the Big Dog but couldn’t penetrate its dark red fur, instead, they were scorched by the fiery blaze.
It might have been a moment or two, but it could have broken free from the restraint, torn the dragon’s mouth, and devoured it.
However, within that brief moment, immense True Qi sketched layers of Array Plates around the dragon’s head, twisting and turning the space in a marvelous arc with the Heavenly, Earthly, Human, and Divine plates, all from the paradoxical arrangement recorded by Jiang Li using the Wind Queen Compass from Tianxuan.
Tianxuan used this method to move freely,
but such shifting was too extreme on inner spatial distortions. The formation distorted space and one’s own form; if the physical body wasn’t robust enough, even if shifting occurred, one would end up as nothing but a pulp at the destination.
Originally, Jiang Li had moved less than half a step and almost became mashed. Moreover, his power wasn’t up to par at the time.
Now, his power had far surpassed those days, and it wasn’t Jiang Li who was being shifted.
The head of the Divine Dragon morphed and then teleported, appearing about thirty feet away, in front of Bu Yusheng.
At that moment, Bu Yusheng was about to release a Qi Blade, but unexpectedly, the dragon’s head, with the dog in its bite, burst into view, unleashing blazing flames and ominous Disaster Qi in a stellar explosion.
Bu Yusheng immediately withdrew her Qi Blade, a puff of cloud appearing on her brow.
Facing such an assault, even the Seamless Heavenly Cloth couldn’t keep Bu Yusheng entirely safe; she had to use a fourth-grade technique.
Clouds surged and visions blurred as if an Immortal Realm had descended to the mortal world, creating another dimension.
"Wang woo!!!"
The dark red Big Dog let out a terrifying scream, its tail shooting straight up, fur standing on end, wildly shaking.
The bursting crimson flame broke through the dragon’s head, smashed the Innate Qi, but then encountered the Immortal-like fourth-grade Technique. Even though Bu Yusheng accidentally failed to kill the dog, using a defensive tactic instead of an offensive one, it still caused unintended misfortune for the Big Dog.
The crimson flames crashed into the Immortal Realm; a pure white cloud dispersed outward like waves, cleansing the area, dispelling the flames and Disaster Qi, pushing the Red Dog outwards.
The Big Dog threw up a mouthful of blood, making a series of strange noises as it was pushed away.
The clouds smashed into the nearby mountains, causing them to shake, rocks tumbling down.
In one move, the Fifth-grade Heavenly Dog was severely injured, leaving Bu Yusheng unable to use her trump card for the time being.
Now, both sides stood on the same starting line.
The headless Divine Dragon glided low, a figure swept out from where the head had been, rising with the wind.
At this point, Jiang Li was not in a hurry to leave; he felt he could counterattack.
The clouds gradually cleared, and the mystical visions blocked the attack, pushing away the Sky Dog, then slowly dissipating. Jiang Li rode the wind, a mighty draft swirling around him.
"Jiang Li!"
Bu Yusheng circulated her energy, and the wide sleeves of the Seamless Heavenly Cloth extended like a chain of clouds, moving across the sky like golden sunrise, soft yet firm, sharp as blades, radiating fiercely.
"Fairy Bu, it’s only polite to return the favor. Take a strike from me,"
Jiang Li laughed heartily, the Wind Force gathering Thunder and Fire, the Cliff Sword sweeping across, the sky thundering loudly as thunder and fire cleared the air, winds dispersing clouds, overwhelmingly breaking through the cloud-like golden glow, charging forth.
Moving like the wind, he turned into an afterimage flying forward, the Divine Unity of Essence, Qi, and Spirit at its peak, the Three Flowers blooming above his head. Jiang Li, ignoring the thunder and residual sharp air, crossed the distance, storming in.
His current power was tremendously overwhelming, far surpassing anyone of the same realm, even Bu Yusheng’s Cultivation Technique acclaimed as peerless. In terms of power, she was definitely not a match for Jiang Li, who had opened the Divine Farmer Nine Springs.
Moreover, the Golden Core Technique had perfectly blended the Three Elements. Jiang Li’s Three Flowers Gathering at the Top among the Sixth Rank was nearly unbreakable, he needn’t worry about such aftermath.
"Fine Craftsmanship."
Kun Yin Energy enveloped her body like Heavenly Clothes, in thousands of layers, particularly caring for her face. Bu Yusheng’s palm flashed with golden light, and the platinum edge tore through the space, meeting the rough Battle Sword.
"Clang!"
When the blades collided, the Fifth Grade Daoist Artifact surprisingly could not shatter the Qi Blade, and even the gravitational field of the Cliff Sword seemed to be torn by the edge of this Qi Blade.
Bu Yusheng wore a cold expression, with no intention of escaping, her heart as sharp as a blade. Her Seamless Heavenly Cloth revealed traces of immortal light, forming ribbons on her arms.
Her Seamless Heavenly Cloth, containing a Dao Fruit, had become a Dao Artifact.
Both parties held their grounds, one attacking with the Cliff Sword, the other defending with the Heavenly Clothes, neither showing any signs of retreating.
The outcome was determined in an instant, solely because the Sky Dog, though injured, still had combat power, and it only needed to catch its breath for another round of assault.
The Qi Blade circulated sharp light, suddenly erupting and transforming into dozens of blades, shooting out in a fan shape.
The Cliff Sword advanced straight ahead, without any thought of defense, direct and straightforward.
"Ding!"
After a moment of crisp sound, there was a continuous clashing of metals, the Qi Blade slashed the body, the golden light of Three Flowers Gathering at the Top fluctuated but grew more condensed. Jiang Li, with the mighty Three Elements, robustly resisted the Qi Blade; the Cliff Sword shattered the two blades in front, blocked by Bu Yusheng with a cross arm.
A heavy pressure slashed onto her arm, outside the Seamless Heavenly Cloth seemed to be thousands of Sha Luo layers, heavily resisting the sword power. Bu Yusheng’s Qi Mechanism rose, Kun Yin Energy merged with the Gold Element, evolving into West Beauty Miao Zhen’s Energy, like clouds dispersing in the sky, a faint immortal light shining directly on her.
Jiang Li internally activated the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Image, the Wind Queen’s Strange Gate operating in his body, Eight Qi surged forth.
Immortal light illuminated the body, immediately revealing countless stars, in an instant feeling as if struck by thousands of swords and blades, numerous sharp auras causing the pores to stand on end.
And as the Eight Qi surged and struck the Immortal Light, vast great strength roared through, even before reaching her body, Bu Yusheng felt as if struck by a heavy blow, the thousands of Sha Luo layers crumbling.
Last time, Bu Yusheng’s technique had blocked the Innate Eight Qi momentarily, but this time, Jiang Li unleashed and condensed the Eight Qi, piercing through the Heavenly Clothes-like Miao Qi like a sharp blade through paper, then refining and assimilating it. The Cliff Sword, carrying the Eight Qi, slashed down on Bu Yusheng’s chest, the Heavenly Clothes rippled but could not dissipate the powerful force as before.
The Cliff Sword, heavy like a mountain, was indeed to suppress with absolute power, allowing no room for the Heavenly Clothes to dissipate.
A pair of cold eyes, through the Battle Sword, faced Bu Yusheng, those eyes spinning with intricate wonders, containing boundless mysteries, yet with absolute coldness, resembling the merciless Heavenly Dao, high above.
Bu Yusheng suddenly felt a sense of dread, as if an electric current surged from her tailbone, her body tensed.
She knew that this time, she was facing a life-and-death crisis, which was life’s instinct warning her.
I could die!
She might die!
Time seemed to pause in that moment, and Jiang Li’s Cliff Sword moved again, continuously evolving the Innate Eight Qi.
"Boom!"
A loud sound emerged in the sky, with True Qi surging like a tidal sea, the Star Sea moving, All Stars appearing, and Nine Dragons rising, escorting a noble figure, splitting the light of all celestial stars.
The Emperor’s isolation, Tianxuan’s Barrier, were broken.
The third grade Qi Mechanism startled both heaven and earth, and soon the entire Divine Capital seemed to awaken from a deep sleep, all masters and strong ones noticing this place.
"Go!"
Tianxuan’s voice rang in the ear, carrying a trace of urgency.
Jiang Li decisively withdrew his sword, without any hesitation, and sat back in his wheelchair.
A streak of starlight crossed the sky, sweeping past a rushing Red Shadow and Jiang Li, disappearing into the horizon.
He had survived.
Bu Yusheng suddenly relaxed her body, softening like spring mud, nearly collapsing to the ground.
Beneath the golden dress, her body like white jade broke out in a fine sweat, her heart pounding fiercely, the lingering dread giving her a strangely thrilling sensation.
Those cold, merciless eyes, like an imprint, deeply etched in her mind, never to be forgotten.
"This..."
As Bu Yusheng recalled those cold eyes, the inner dread and relief of surviving a calamity mixed together, she suddenly hugged her arms, her body trembling.
