Chapter 462: Chapter 164: The Discomfited Great Revered One! Daoist Priest Fan, a Match for the Evil God (A 10,000-word Mega Chapter, Please Subscribe)_5
The floating talismanic scripts were like hypnotic chants that could induce madness in anyone who listened.
...
"This is bad... very bad..." Even though the Nanjun County Prince had forgotten many things, he could still make out what was happening in the distance with his considerable Taoist expertise.
He swallowed nervously, "That Daoist Fan Wu seems to be at a disadvantage at first glance!"
The Nanjun County Prince harbored no fondness for Fan Wu, who had beaten him up before.
But losing his memory didn’t mean he became an idiot.
He knew that now, the only person capable of stopping the terrifying Great Demons was the very Fan Wu he disliked!
If even Fan Wu was no match for the sinister Great Demons, then it was likely that none among them would survive.
The Nanjun County Prince didn’t want to die; if he had wished for death, he wouldn’t be so afraid of Fan Wu.
His subconscious told him that he should take this opportunity, while the two parties were locked in magic combat, to run away quickly.
Maybe if he got far enough away, the Great Demons wouldn’t be able to catch up to him.
Even if Fan Wu emerged victorious in the end, as long as he ran far enough, Fan Wu wouldn’t be able to catch up to him either.
Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?
And wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?
After all, strictly speaking, whether it was The Great Revered One or Fan Wu, both were like Great Demons in his eyes. The only difference was that Fan Wu looked more human, while The Great Revered One did not resemble a human at all.
However...
In the end, the Nanjun County Prince didn’t seize the chance to escape; after all, it was just a guess in his heart, and he couldn’t be one hundred percent certain he wouldn’t be caught by one side or the other.
Meanwhile, Xing Fengzi and Yun Jiuqing had great difficulty discerning exactly what was happening in the distance.
The flying sand and rolling dust made it impossible for them to see clearly.
Even if they squinted their eyes, all they could barely make out were vague shapes.
The most conspicuous of those shapes was a cage of chains conjured by The Great Revered One and the figure of The Great Revered One himself, levitating in midair.
Xing Fengzi placed a hand before his brow to shield his eyes from the sand, his voice filled with concern, "Daoist Fan Wu has been in a magical duel with that Great Revered Evil God for nearly thirty breaths, but the state of that Evil God..."
At that point, he too swallowed nervously, and then continued, "Why does it seem like Daoist Fan Wu is at a disadvantage right now?"
Just as Xing Fengzi’s words fell, suddenly, a blinding white light tore through the darkness and emerged.
The dazzling white light forced Xing Fengzi to instinctively shut his eyes.
This was not an act of psychological fear, but a natural impulse to protect his eyes from the bright light.
"What is that..." Xing Fengzi struggled against his body’s instinctive reaction to squint his eyes open.
Then, he saw a sword light so extravagant that it left him clicking his tongue in amazement, shooting straight up to the sky!
Heading straight for The Great Revered Evil God floating in midair!
...
"This guy..." The Great Revered One’s pitch-black eyes flashed with shock as he witnessed his Chains Cage slash open by Fan Wu’s sword!
As he watched the sword light flying towards him, The Great Revered One knew that he had to dodge this time!
With a feeling of humiliation, he awkwardly moved aside, avoiding the sword light.
Although the sword light had not hit Him, He could still feel the terrifying power it carried.
His instincts told Him that if He were to be hit by it, His body would surely be split in two.
At that moment, Fan Wu leaped out from the sliced-open gap in the cage made by his sword, and as soon as he jumped out, those thick chains sealed shut completely.
One bizarre talisman after another collided, instantly unleashing an astonishing amount of energy!
It nearly caused Fan Wu to lose his balance.
But in the end, he stood firm.
"There are four minutes and nine seconds left," Fan Wu silently counted down the remaining time for his Ghost-Killing Path skill to expire.
If it had been the level 1 Ghost-Killing Path of before, Fan Wu would have had only the last nine seconds left.
If he couldn’t resolve the descent of The Great Revered One within those final nine seconds...
Then basically, there would be no chance left for him.
It would be best for him to make a strategic retreat.
Fortunately... Fan Wu had recently upgraded the Ghost-Killing Path skill from level 1 directly to level 2!
Five minutes of duration.
That was enough!
Whoosh!
Fan Wu’s figure vanished abruptly, and when he reappeared, he had instantly leaped into midair, now less than ten steps from The Great Revered One in front of him!
The two of them...
were now face to face!
Fan Wu didn’t waste time with more words. Facing the immense figure of The Great Revered One, he didn’t hesitate to slash through the air with his sword, and the even larger shadow of the Ghost-Killing Path behind him closely followed, plunging its sword towards The Great Revered One!
The ten-step distance of that sword strike made even The Great Revered One feel terrified!
The Great Revered One’s body spewed out dense black mist, and copious amounts of mist clung to His surface, making Him appear as though wearing a gigantic set of dark armor.
