Chapter 167: The Seal is About to Break
Looking at the terrifying figure that resembled a demon ghost, with only charred bones and damaged organs remaining, Chi Jiuyu's expression was somewhat dazed.
But the half-broken ice crystal longsword she held in her hand confirmed that this person was indeed Zhang Yunlu.
That's not right!
These Jiaojiao Clan members aren't particularly strong, and their cultivation system is quite primitive. How could they possibly force Xiao Yunlu, who is in the Creation Foundation Establishment stage, into such a state?
Chi Jiuyu quickly adjusted the parameters, and the image began to zoom out.
It wasn't until she saw the vast flattened area, the cracked earth, the flowing lava, and the dry riverbed that her pupils contracted.
Honestly, even she would have found it difficult to achieve this level when she was in the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.
But how could there be such a powerful guy in an Alien Race extermination mission?
Soon, Huang Qi, whose body was burning with crimson-gold light flames and who had a fiery divine halo behind him, looking Li Ke a god, entered her line of sight.
This guy... absolutely cannot be from the Jiaojiao Clan of this star system!
Chi Jiuyu furrowed her brow.
"Dead fish!"
She saw Li Ke lying in the healing pod, having woken up at some point, staring at that figure just Li Ke her.
"Why are you awake? Hurry up and close your eyes to heal!" she said quickly.
"Listen to me." Li Ke's tone was extremely serious. "You immediately teleport down and kill this guy."
"But this... is Xiao Yunlu's mission."
"That little guy only has the strength for one sword strike left. After this sword strike, no matter the outcome, she will absolutely not be able to unleash a second one."
Martial Uncle should have a backup plan, but there's no time to explain all of this now.
As she spoke, a silver longsword floated out of the healing pod and landed in her hand - Li Ke's life-bound sword.
"Take my sword! Go quickly!"
Chi Jiuyu shivered.
"Yes!"
She dared not delay any longer, and carrying the silver longsword, she rushed out.
Li Ke stared intently through the healing pod at the figure enveloped in crimson-gold light flames with a fiery divine halo behind him.
Huang Qi!
The Seventh of the Heavenly Generals under that old fellow 'Xuan'.
The sudden move by 'Xuan' earlier was definitely related to this guy.
But no matter what He is planning, He absolutely cannot be allowed to succeed!
...
...
Above the Fifth Planet.
Zhang Yunlu stood on the dry riverbed, unable to see, unable to hear, unable to smell...
Her injuries were too severe, causing her five senses to be lost. Only her Divine Soul was radiant and dazzling, and a black and white dao platform was crystalline Li Ke jade.
At this moment, the strength of her true essence and Divine Soul far surpassed any previous time.
The principle she had comprehended during Qi Training had been pushed to its limit at this moment.
If she could return alive this time and cultivate with a calm mind, she should be able to break through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment very easily... perhaps even the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment isn't impossible?
'The final sword!''
She said this to herself in her heart.
Boom!
As she took a step, the ground suddenly sank. At the break of the ice crystal longsword, the blade condensed from true essence was bright and dazzling.
The remaining true essence overflowed, covering her body Li Ke a blood-colored veil.
Her entire being was Li Ke a blood-colored meteor flying in reverse, tearing through the air and rushing towards Huang Qi, the tip of her sword pointing directly at His glabella.
Huang Qi frowned slightly.
The strength of this sword's energy locked down the surrounding void, and the biting, pure killing intent even caused a throbbing pain in His glabella.
The principle this Human Clan ant had comprehended was special. Now, unleashing a desperate strike at this level was indeed not to be underestimated.
"Come!"
Huang Qi raised His hand and beckoned. The crimson-gold light flames around His body fell into His palm and were grasped by Him.
Golden flames intertwined.
He then descended with His fist wrapped in crimson-gold flowing fire, intending to directly clash with Zhang Yunlu.
From a distance, it looked Li Ke two meteors of different colors colliding with each other.
One was vast and sacred, the other was mournful and deadly.
It seemed that one could already foresee that the next moment would be an earth-shattering, magnificent strike.
However, just as the two sides were about to collide, Zhang Yunlu's sword tip suddenly deviated, stabbing directly at the strange polyhedron that was already covered in cracks.
Crack!
The already overwhelmed polyhedron crumbled Li Ke fragile glass, disintegrating into countless crystalline fragments.
The momentum of the sword remained undiminished, directly piercing through Huang Qi's palm and bringing out a spray of fresh blood.
Of course, she herself was not well off either. She took a solid punch, and half of her body was directly blown away.
At this point, Zhang Yunlu finally had no strength left and fell powerlessly downwards.
Thoughts swirled in her mind.
'This 'beep beep beep' guy is really powerful. I've done everything I could, but I still can't win.'
'But that sword strike just now should be enough to make Him feel disgusted, hehe.'
'Chi Jiuyu was really right, the principle I comprehended is quite suicidal.'
As if entering a deathbed reflection, scenes from the past constantly flashed through her mind.
From childhood to adulthood, her parents whose appearances were already blurred, classmates, friends, teachers she barely remembered...
The Senior who granted her Opportunity, the Purple Vast True Lord who gave her the "Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method"...
Looking at it this way, I was indeed quite lucky.
And older brother...
'I hope older brother won't be too sad when he hears the news, and I wish older brother will find the truth of our parents' demise soon.'
All the past moments are here at this time.
Her heart was beating slower and slower, and she also realized her current condition.
Do I regret it?
She asked herself in her heart.
If she were still on the Central Continent, she definitely wouldn't be Li Ke this now?
But strangely, she didn't feel any regret, only a little pity.
'It's a pity, I haven't become a Sword Cultivator as powerful as Chi Jiuyu...'
High in the sky, Huang Qi looked at the biological weapon core that had shattered into countless crystalline fragments, and a trace of annoyance flashed in His eyes.
This Human Clan ant had acted so resolutely, betting everything on that one sword, yet at the last moment, she had turned the sword's edge.
Looking at the figure falling downwards, Huang Qi condensed a crimson-gold flickering flame in His palm, intending to completely obliterate her.
Suddenly.
A violent pain came from the back of His head, and His skull was even dented!
If not for the vast purple intent that flashed in His eyes, His head would have been blown apart by this kick.
The fiery divine halo was directly shattered, and He was uncontrollably sent plummeting towards the ground.
Boom!
A large hole appeared directly in the charred earth. The crystallized material that had been burned by the high temperature earlier detached from the ground, rising into the sky with a wave of dust.
And that voice, however, arrived belatedly after He had hit the ground.
"Your grandpa--!"
Huang Qi was in a daze for a while. His dented skull recovered, but His ears were still ringing.
This power!
It's the God Forging Realm!
Corresponding to the Human Clan's Nascent Soul Realm, and not just an ordinary Nascent Soul!
At the same Realm, even among the Cang Clan, there are very few who can match this Nascent Soul.
Damn it!
Whatever demeanor or Cang Clan etiquette He had was now thrown aside.
The strong sense of grievance made Huang Qi involuntarily curse in His heart!
Damn Sword Revered, to even have such an unfair suppression in the trial!
To actually put a top-tier Nascent Soul in a trial full of Foundation Establishment cultivators!
But before He could curse a few more times, His head suddenly felt heavy. It was the falling Chi Jiuyu stepping on His head.
With her cultivation at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, Huang Qi, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage at this moment, was completely unable to resist and could only eat dirt in frustration.
Moreover, Chi Jiuyu was holding Li Ke's life-bound sword in her hand, about to swing it down and kill Him here.
However, at this very moment, that ubiquitous, absolutely high-level power that sealed everything suddenly had a momentary gap.
Opportunity!
Huang Qi opened His eyes, and His terrifying power seemed to make the entire star system tremble.
