Chapter 964: Chapter 210 Shattering Ming Yue
The calculations in these battles seem slow when spoken of, but they transpire in the blink of an eye.
Just as Ji Shaoqing raised his finger, Jiang Wang’s falling figure took flight once again.
Stepping on the shattered green clouds, under the oppression of the Heavenly Gate Power, he still managed to step right in front of Ji Shaoqing.
In the secret place, Gu Huaixin suddenly stood up, losing his composure, "It was an Immortal Technique!"
With a twist of his step, he was gone.
The era when the Nine Great Immortal Palaces dominated the world had passed for too long. So long that it had been almost forgotten by the world. Even Gu Huaixin, a Dongzhen expert, failed to recognize the origin of Walk in the Sky at first glance.
Only when he saw that even the Heavenly Gate Power could not subdue Jiang Wang did he suddenly recall it, and his composure was lost.
Looking at the chess game that was now beyond salvation, Xu Xiangwan sighed in resignation, "Back when the Boundless Prisoner passed and Fu Tu died, it was thought to herald the decline from prosperity. But now it seems, Qi Country is still in its prime with talents emerging one after another. We are cornered with no retreat... but have we been too hasty?"
No one could answer him.
On the End of the World Platform, under the gaze of tens of thousands, Jiang Wang finally drew his sword.
Clang!
It was an intense, absolutely resolute shriek.
The long-suppressed, restraint-laden intent to kill.
This sound made listeners shiver all over, as if they had plunged into an ice cellar!
Hearing the sword’s cry, one could sense the intensity of the killing intent. Seeing the sword’s edge, one could see the decisiveness of that intent!
That unique and sharp Longsword was finally unsheathed.
Like an evening sun plummeting from the sky, crashing into the human world.
The sword of an ancient warrior at dusk!
Jiang Wang had chosen this sword.
Among all the Human Dao sword styles, this was the most tragic and solemn one.
The setting sun burns out the twilight, the hero incinerates his twilight years.
It is about moving forward without turning back, the most ardent burning at the imminent end of life.
But at this moment, there was something different.
The sword was wrapped in a wisp of wind.
The wind was frost white, almost blending with the sword light, indistinguishable from each other.
The Buzhou Wind from the northwest, reaps life!
Utilizing the special nature of the Immortal Technique, Jiang Wang successfully deceived Ji Shaoqing, earning this chance to strike, and he did not hesitate to maximize this opportunity. He also unleashed his newly acquired third Divine Skill, the Buzhou Wind, without any hesitation.
Faced with this strike from Jiang Wang, Ji Shaoqing was astonished.
As the trump card he had always relied on, he simply could not believe in the failure of his Heavenly Gate Power.
But the opponent’s sword stroke was so ruthless and swift, he had no room to dodge.
However, it didn’t matter. Among the countless rise and fall of thoughts, one thought emphasized this.
The Arrow of the Moon would arrive in an instant, leaving Jiang Wang with barely a moment’s time. This time, he certainly wouldn’t give his opponent the chance to deceive him with an illusory body.
And before the Arrow of the Moon fell, the black vestment robe with golden edges he wore would protect him.
This had been proven in countless battles in the past.
This robe was known as Xuanhai, a vestment robe once used by Gu Huaixin. As long as it is near water, it can establish a connection, almost merging with the water domain, transferring any damage received. Limitless like the sea, it could contain the infinite. Once charged, it could withstand damage at least ten times.
The End of the World Platform was by the seaside!
He chose this place to fight to better utilize the power of the Xuanhai vestment robe.
Before Jiang Wang’s sword could pierce him...
Boom!
The waves beneath the high cliff suddenly roared.
In front of Ji Shaoqing, a vision of raging seas appeared. Majestic and vast, it seemed capable of blocking everything.
But then the sound of the wind arose.
Whoosh...
It was a chill, desolate wind sound that’s hard to describe, freezing one to the core.
The frost-white wind gently blew by, and the vision of the raging seas disappeared into nothing.
To his horror, Ji Shaoqing found that his Xuanhai vestment robe, as if it could not withstand the erosion of time, suddenly shattered into countless fragments, falling like rain.
Among the spectators of the battle, there were those with a broad field of vision who noticed that beneath the End of the World Platform, the roaring sea suddenly developed a massive void. The waves that should have been surging there were, for some reason, instantly annihilated over a large area.
Indeed, the Vestment robe of the Mysterious Sea established a connection with the nearby ocean and successfully transferred a tremendous amount of damage. However, while transferring the damage, it inevitably had to endure a portion of the force itself.
But it was just this bit of Boundless Wind’s force that shattered it!
What is the wind that kills life?
This wind breaks all grass as it passes, known as frost killing all vegetation!
Ji Shaoqing could almost smell the scent of death; he felt the harsh frost wind as though it was blowing on his face.
Doomsday approaches, death is upon us...
No!
He expelled the murderous intent that had entered his heart first, and instantly regained clarity.
With one thought, a full nine Ji Shaoqings fled in different directions, towards all sides.
The Instantaneous Dao Arts imprinted within his fourth Inner Mansion, Mind Water Spirit!
This art, regarded as exquisite in illusion techniques, could delay even someone of Jiang Wang’s remarkable skills in illusion for a moment, and that was enough.
Subsequently, the torrential waves that had been gathered by his earlier use of Water Dragon Chant suddenly formed a huge vortex, spinning wildly. The speed of the rotation increased more and more, amalgamating all the waves together.
The Instantaneous Dao Arts imprinted within his third Inner Mansion, Water Suction!
The powerful suction force pulled all manifestations of Ji Shaoqing created by Mind Water Spirit outwards by a certain distance.
Ji Shaoqing utilized this art not to kill enemies but to help himself, who could no longer avoid the inevitable, to shift just a bit further!
His response paid off.
With the Red Mirror on his body, Jiang Wang indeed illuminated everything atop the End of the World Platform and accurately located Ji Shaoqing’s true body.
But because of that pull from the Water Suction.
His sword could no longer pierce through Ji Shaoqing’s vitals; he had to make a snap decision, switching to the sword of a fallen gentleman in dire straits and drawing a clean arc.
Because it was exceedingly sharp, there was almost no sound.
Because it was exceedingly swift, there was almost no sensation.
It wasn’t until the finger that should have been standing erect was sent flying high in front of him that Ji Shaoqing felt pain.
The intense pain turned numb in just an instant.
Someone as powerful as Ji Shaoqing quickly found the cause—the wound from that sword strike was losing vitality at an extremely terrifying rate...The Boundless Wind was blowing!
He channeled a massive amount of Path Origin to clash against it, managing to drive away that extremely pure murderous intent in an instant. The cost, however, was that instead of just losing half a finger, now the whole finger exploded.
As that finger exploded, bursting into a mist of blood, Ji Shaoqing’s entire being also "exploded."
He "exploded" into countless droplets, falling directly into the waves now swirling in the Water Suction below his feet, vanishing without a trace. With this move, he evaded further attacks from Jiang Wang.
One cannot say he miscalculated; after all, he managed to save his life amidst an almost impossible situation and escaped successfully.
But after Jiang Wang chopped off the finger that was invoking Divine Skills, he didn’t pursue further. Instead, he stepped on the Shattered Green Clouds and soared into the air.
He faced... the First Quarter Moon!
Whoo...
He exhaled gently, and a wisp of frost-white wind fell onto that clear moon.
The moonlight shattered.
The entire hanging crescent moon directly exploded.
The Arrow of the Moon, ready to be unleashed, naturally disappeared without a trace.
Jiang Wang did not pursue Ji Shaoqing; he targeted his Divine Skills instead.
He blew the Boundless Wind.
Using Divine Skills to counter Divine Skills.
He shattered the First Quarter Moon!
The "night" enveloping the sky above the End of the World Platform was dispelled just like that.
The rising sun shone high above, brightly illuminating everything, the world became clear and bright.
And Jiang Wang turned upside down, descending from the sky, pressing down with one palm.
Whew, whew, whew...
Seas of fire, tidal waves of sound, nearly swept through everything...
The Eight Tones Engulfing the Seas!
