As the flames lunged towards Luo Jiangwen, Qiangzi's hands condensed, and an electric arc three times more powerful than before enveloped his palm.
Just as the flames were about to reach Luo Jiangwen's body, Luo Jiangwen finished forming a hand seal and shouted, "Soul Out!"
Luo Jiangwen's soul floated out of his body. Yin energy surged from the ground, entering Luo Jiangwen's soul-form body. He then raised his hand and blocked the incoming flames.
Yu Daochen and Qiangzi were both shocked. Yu Daochen directly cursed, "Holy hell, you blocked my Devouring Flame Art with your soul form!"
Yu Daochen knew the power of his Devouring Flame Art all too well. Even with a physical body, few would dare to directly confront the Devouring Flame Art. Yet, this guy dared to face it head-on with his soul form, and what's more, he blocked it.
Qiangzi also found it hard to believe. He had witnessed the power of Yu Daochen's Devouring Flame Art, an art that even Guo Cunhai feared. And Luo Jiangwen had blocked it with his soul form.
If he hadn't known that Yu Daochen would never collude with Luo Jiangwen, Qiangzi would have absolutely suspected Yu Daochen of playing him.
Although Qiangzi was startled by Luo Jiangwen's move, he stomped his foot and charged at Luo Jiangwen, bracing himself. Retreat was no longer an option.
Qiangzi rushed to Luo Jiangwen's front, gathered power in his palm, and swung it towards Luo Jiangwen's head.
Luo Jiangwen sneered, showing no fear. He didn't dodge at all, raising his palm to meet the attack.
*Bang*
Their palms met. Qiangzi felt his arm go numb. His face darkened, and he retreated, his arm trembling uncontrollably.
Seeing that Qiangzi's palm had not only failed to harm Luo Jiangwen but had also pushed him back, Yu Daochen's expression turned surprised.
Logically, a soul should be the most fragile. Even a couple of explosive talismans could severely damage a soul. Even if the Yin Walking sect had methods to cultivate souls, they shouldn't be this strong.
Luo Jiangwen revealed a triumphant smile and let out a sinister laugh, "You walk into hell's gate when heaven's road is open. Today is your death day."
As Luo Jiangwen spoke, his palm condensed with yin energy and lunged towards Qiangzi.
Luo Jiangwen was incredibly fast. By the time Qiangzi reacted, the yin energy-condensed palm was already striking towards his head.
Seeing this, Yu Daochen immediately threw his Kanglong mace. Simultaneously, his palm condensed with golden gas, and he charged forward with a push of his toes.
Luo Jiangwen's expression changed as he saw the Kanglong mace flying towards him. He condensed a ball of yin energy in his hand and flung it at the mace.
The Kanglong mace collided with the ball of yin energy and bounced back, flying into the air.
Seeing this, Yu Daochen pressed his feet down slightly, leaped up, grabbed the airborne Kanglong mace, and then, with a natural motion, swung it down at Luo Jiangwen.
Luo Jiangwen retreated, condensing a ball of yin energy in his hand and throwing it towards Yu Daochen.
As Yu Daochen split the ball of yin energy, his other hand, glowing with golden light, forcefully struck Luo Jiangwen's chest.
Hit by Yu Daochen's Tian Gan Palm, Luo Jiangwen was sent flying back three meters.
Seeing Luo Jiangwen sent flying back over three meters by his palm, Yu Daochen's lips curled upwards, and he rejoiced inwardly.
He didn't know the power of Qiangzi's Five Thunder Palm, but Luo Jiangwen had taken his palm head-on. He would be severely injured, if not dead.
Luo Jiangwen stood up. As expected, the spot hit by Yu Daochen's palm began to burn, and his soul-form body started to become transparent.
Yu Daochen grinned. At this rate, Luo Jiangwen was surely doomed.
Qiangzi, standing beside Yu Daochen, saw Luo Jiangwen's soul slowly turning transparent and showed a similar smile. As expected, in times like these, one had to rely on Master Yu.
Before the two could rejoice for too long, streams of yin energy emerged from the ground and seeped into Luo Jiangwen's soul.
The smiles on their faces froze. Yu Daochen cursed, "Holy hell, what kind of operation is this?"
Qiangzi next to him was also incredulous. He had seen people use yin energy, but never anyone who could directly use yin energy to heal soul injuries.
There were methods in the martial world for cultivating yin energy, but they only used yin energy as an offensive spell. This was the first time he had seen yin energy used directly for soul healing.
"Young Master Yu, I told you, leave some room for future encounters. Luo Jiangwen, who was about to dissipate, was completely restored."
Yu Daochen ignored Luo Jiangwen and looked at Qiangzi. The two exchanged a nod. This guy's combat style was too bizarre. It was best to leave now. If the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn.
Seeing that they intended to flee, Luo Jiangwen let out a sinister laugh, "Want to leave? It's too late."
Yu Daochen glanced at Qiangzi. Qiangzi attacked first, quickly pulling out six explosive talismans and shooting them at Luo Jiangwen.
Yu Daochen followed closely behind. He drew his finger across the Kanglong mace, and a ball of flames enveloped the mace before he swung it down.
The flames transformed into a shockwave that struck Luo Jiangwen. Then, Yu Daochen pulled out two small green flags from the sides of his backpack, stuck them into the ground, and countless green silken threads lunged towards Luo Jiangwen.
"Go!"
As soon as Qiangzi finished speaking, he turned and ran. Yu Daochen, however, charged forward.
Qiangzi was stunned. Before he could understand what was happening, he saw Yu Daochen rush to Luo Jiangwen's physical body and smash down hard with the Kanglong mace.
"I'll show you for being so cocky."
With that mace strike, Luo Jiangwen's entire forehead caved in, and blood splattered.
Qiangzi raised an eyebrow. With that mace blow from Master Yu, Luo Jiangwen's physical body was completely ruined.
Yu Daochen stomped again, a triumphant grin on his face, and then bolted away.
