Chapter 1778: Chapter 1778: Taoist Gate Talisman
Unfortunately, there’s no "if".
Not only did Han Sanqian have misconceptions about Li Feng’s strength, but even those who knew some inside details after the battle in Underground Palace City wouldn’t fully grasp Li Feng’s current abilities.
A surgical knife, slicing through the demonic purple shadow, relentlessly harvesting the Dragon Tiger Sect’s minions. These people weren’t weak; most had reached Perfect Foundation Establishment, just hitting the bottleneck of Solidifying Pill.
Generally at this level, there’s a possibility of killing a Golden Core across ranks. After all, not every Golden Core achiever has experienced countless battles. Many aristocratic scions depend on resources to form their Golden Core, with weak actual combat strength. Encountering a Perfect Foundation Establishment like the Dragon Tiger Sect minions, getting killed isn’t uncommon.
As Mao said, their joint efforts killing Golden Cores aren’t an exaggeration.
However, the Golden Cores they slay are usually those just formed or lacking combat experience.
Neither of these aligns with Li Feng.
Seven or eight days ago, Li Feng could already withstand battles against several Golden Core Middle Stage cultivators without defeat, let alone now with further improved strength.
At Tongfu Inn, confronting Tong Xiaoshopkeeper, who had just formed his Golden Core, yet was exceptionally talented, Li Feng directly crushed his Hundred Sword Manual.
It can be said that Li Feng is nearly invincible unless a Golden Core Late Stage acts.
Purple shadows kill, and afterward, the victim explodes from within, eventually consumed by flames, leaving not even a scrap behind in moments. This terrifying death omnipresent, even the battle-hardened Dragon Tiger Sect minions couldn’t withstand.
After a third was eliminated, the remaining half of the Dragon Tiger Sect minions began to collapse.
Forget close combat; now they don’t even know how they died, leaving not a trace behind.
This directly scared them out of their wits.
Some immediately decided to retreat and turned to flee, as they were used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong, clearly Li Feng was beyond their capabilities.
Li Feng caught the sight of those turning to escape from the corner of his eye, but he didn’t intend to let them go.
They may come or not, but whether they leave or not, Li Feng decides.
Li Feng raised his hand, throwing two surgical knives once more, and instantly they vanished into the bamboo forest like phantoms.
No matter how quickly these people ran, the dense Purple Bamboo Forest would hinder them, while the surgical knives, quick and nimble, enhanced by lightning, chased them down almost instantly.
In a moment, the surgical knives pierced flesh, these people’s Protective Gang Qi couldn’t even delay for an instant.
Ah.
Painful screams continued to echo from the Purple Bamboo Forest, those who ran seemed to die faster.
"Can’t escape, let’s fight him."
Some hesitated, surviving a bit longer as Li Feng didn’t act immediately, witnessing the screams from fleeing people, realizing they couldn’t escape, they turned fierce.
They erupted with fighting spirit, Sword Qi and Sword Energy shot from a distance, intending to inundate Li Feng.
Li Feng made one move, pulling Ran Yue from her horse to stand behind him, whereas Thunder Tiger had already snuggled under Li Feng’s feet.
The next second.
Numerous Sword Qi and Sword Energy swept up winds, the surrounding bamboo forest rustling fiercely.
But this Sword Qi and Sword Energy couldn’t break through Li Feng’s Domineering True Gang, blocked without leaving even a ripple.
Foundation Establishment, even as potent as Sky Breaking, is still Foundation Establishment, a considerable gap from a higher rank.
After a series of attacks, these Dragon Tiger Sect minions were exhausted; they weren’t Golden Cores, their internal True Yuan limited, and evoking Sword Qi and Sword Energy was a costly move.
Yet when they looked at Li Feng, each of them showed despair.
How could it be.
Isn’t he supposed to be just Golden Core Initial Stage?
Golden Core Initial Stage so powerful?
"Go die."
Mao’s eyes reddened, his elite soldiers gone before he even saw them, leaving him as the lone commander.
He wanted to flee, but seeing his minions’ fate, he knew today wouldn’t end well; without defeating Li Feng, he couldn’t escape.
Seeing as the opponent wouldn’t let him live, his only option was to fight.
Mao, leveraging the activation of Sword Qi and Sword Energy by minions, drew close to Li Feng, key moment, Mao leapt up.
Li Feng looked at him, sneeringly curling his lips.
Mao felt Li Feng’s disdain, smiling coolly inside; not fearing underestimation, his audacity was self-invited.
Mao launched a Gate Talisman mid-air.
"Thunder Technique·Baptism."
Just a Taoist-made Talisman, containing Taoist secret technique, recording attack array on a special bark paper, the better materials used, the stronger Daoist Skill; highly potent Talismans.
Ancestor Dragon City’s Hundred Treasure Pavilion, established by Taoists, specializing in selling these disposable items, powerful yet single-use, crucial moments can reverse fortunes.
This Talisman Mao held, golden, highest grade sold by Taoists, the embedded Thunder Technique equating to a Golden Core Middle Stage strike.
Immensely powerful.
This Talisman naturally valuable, stolen by Mao in murders before, kept as a trump card, unexpectedly used today.
In an instant, the Talisman shattered, unleashing a thunder strike over Li Feng’s head, capturing a fist-sized thunderbolt through countless Talisman inscriptions, blitzing right onto Li Feng.
Mao smirked secretly, Thunder Technique aggressive in attack, also debilitating and paralyzing even if failing to kill instantly, buying at least a second.
That instant.
Mao swung his three-foot long knife, not ordinary, a Profound Level Spiritual Weapon.
The Spiritual Weapon erupted with sharp blade light, Mao, as an Incense Master of Dragon Tiger Sect, also possessing Golden Core strength.
At this moment, the full-force strike had three parts of momentum, cutting straight towards Li Feng’s head.
"No...."
Pulled behind by Li Feng, Ran Yue saw the descending thunder and blade light, couldn’t warn before Thunder Technique deluged over Li Feng’s head.
Pressed close against Li Feng, Ran Yue felt the Thunder Arc from Thunder Technique, although just lightning; Ran Yue didn’t worry, knowing Li Feng’s Golden Core had Thunder Attribute, but the accompanying blade light proved more lethal.
Seeing blade light approach, Ran Yue wanted to push Li Feng from the horse, yet hurriedly her strength couldn’t budge Li Feng.
Could only watch the blade fall, instinctively closing eyes.
