Chapter 475 - 437: Unstoppable Momentum, Aiming to Slay a True Disciple
Cyan Dragon Claw.
In terms of raw power, it was a rather ordinary technique among Li Jinhua’s repertoire. A protective spell shield from a cultivator of the same rank could block it with relative ease.
However, when it came to stealth, it ranked first among the Dragon Lady’s many techniques. Traceless in the void—the cyan dragon extends its claw!
As for its lack of power... what kind of power did one need to deal with a Golden Core cultivator anyway?
Thus.
Li Jinhua’s Cyan Dragon Claw had silently slain Black Death Zhenren.
Even Black Death Zhenren himself hadn’t had time to react before his consciousness plunged into an eternal sleep.
WHOOSH!
Without a cultivator to control them, the Five Yin Evil Qi Clouds’ power plummeted. How could they possibly withstand Zhao Jiuhuang’s Divine Techniques?
WHOOSH!
The fire phoenix blazed across the land, incinerating the gloomy clouds!
A brilliant light filled the sky, turning night into day!
Black Death Zhenren’s corpse was engulfed by the fire phoenix and annihilated in a single blow!
To any outsider, the scene looked as if Zhao Jiuhuang’s fire phoenix had clashed with the black Evil Qi clouds for a moment, melted away hundreds of strands of black Evil Qi, and then steamrolled its way to a decisive victory!
"How is that possible?"
"That’s Zhao Jiuhuang! She killed Black Death in an instant?"
The Golden Core cultivators who had come as reinforcements were all stunned. They knew that the roiling fire-attribute Spiritual Qi would boost the combat power of a cultivator with a Fire Spiritual Root.
But... could it really be boosted to this extent? An Early-stage Golden Core cultivator instantly killing a Mid-stage Golden Core cultivator? Wasn’t that a bit ridiculous?
"Satisfying!"
The fire phoenix spread its wings.
Zhao Jiuhuang let out a long cry, her dark red sleeves fluttering.
She couldn’t care less what these evil Golden Core cultivators were thinking!
Her face was flushed with excitement. All the frustration from the recent period seemed to vanish in an instant. In just a few breaths, she had slain an evil Golden Core cultivator with magnificent, overwhelming force!
’Mr. Li and I are so strong!’
A smile touched Zhao Jiuhuang’s lips. Although she knew she was just leeching credit... so what if she was? Wasn’t leeched credit still credit?
Li Jinhua had promised that for every enemy Golden Core cultivator "killed" in this battle, they would receive two-thirds of the credit toward their True Treasure Pavilion contribution points!
"Kill!"
Thinking of the contribution points from the kill, Zhao Jiuhuang’s face flushed, her heart burning with excitement.
She swallowed a medicinal pill, and the fire phoenix spread its wings, launching an attack on the other approaching Golden Core reinforcements!
’This Golden Core cultivator... using black Evil Qi clouds as his technique. I haven’t seen him before. Is he a new evil Golden Core cultivator sent by the Star Casting Hall recently?’
Aboard the Ghostly Flood Dragon, Su Ye stroked his chin, lost in thought.
’It seems there are more enemy Golden Core cultivators in Volcano State than we anticipated.’
’But...’
’So what? We have a Nascent Soul True Monarch on our side!’
Su Ye was full of confidence. The higher the cultivation level, the more terrifying the suppression from a major realm gap. The chasm between the Nascent Soul and Golden Core realms was not one that could be easily crossed.
At the very least... it would take more than twenty Golden Core cultivators fighting together in a formation to counteract the suppressive force of a complete law-based skill—the Harmony Skill!
So the question was, would the Star Casting Hall really commit so many Golden Core cultivators to this one battlefield?
’I don’t think so.’
"Let’s make our move, too."
Su Ye turned his head to look at Lin Yinxiu.
Lin Yinxiu nodded firmly, her eyes flashing. As a Loose Cultivator with no great family legacy to support her, with the recent fall of Thunder Prison Island and the loss of the Shenxiao Thunder Pool...
These losses were so great she could practically spit blood.
Seeing a chance to beat a dog in the water and rack up points, she had been itching to go!
SHIING!
The Purple Thunder Bracelet flashed, encasing both her arms!
In an instant, the qipao-clad woman completed her transformation. ’I shall strike in the form of the Electric Shock Angel!’
A bolt of lightning tore through the sky as Lin Yinxiu shot off at extreme speed to support Zhao Jiuhuang.
However,
Su Ye didn’t move.
He remained on the Ghostly Flood Dragon as the ship’s hull transformed and cannon barrels extended.
Thirty-six menacing barrels emerged—Plasma Cannons!
After the Ghostly Flood Dragon advanced to the fourth tier, the number, power, and penetration of its Plasma Cannons had all been greatly enhanced!
Now, it could maintain thirty-six Plasma Cannons under normal conditions, providing extremely powerful and precise fire support, a nightmare for all its enemies!
Firepower is justice!
Caliber is truth!
BOOM!
A Plasma Bomb detonated, erupting into an extremely eye-catching cloud of blood-red flames in the night sky!
Normally, the effects of a Plasma Bomb weren’t so conspicuous after being fired. This type of projectile focused on penetration, concentrating all its power on a single point to be indestructible.
But wasn’t this a special situation?
Li Jinhua was hiding among the Core Formation cultivators, preparing to strike from the shadows.
Considering this, Su Ye had the Plasma Bombs focus on creating a spectacle. Fireworks filled the sky, providing cover for Li Jinhua’s move.
BANG!
Spiritual light flashed in the darkness.
Two Dragonmen, and as many as seven Candle Python Cave Golden Cores—regardless of their true identities, by appearing here, they were Candle Python Cave Golden Cores.
It was just like Li Jinhua. Even though she was a Nascent Soul True Monarch and one of the Seven Sages of the True Treasure Pavilion, since she was here, she was naturally considered a Flame Alliance Core Formation cultivator.
In short.
Nine fourth-tier beings engaged in a fierce battle with the three Golden Core cultivators from the Flame Alliance.
At the same time, dozens of Core Formation cultivators began a chaotic melee on the battlefield—the Flame Alliance had only a dozen or so Core Formation cultivators, facing nearly thirty on the enemy’s side.
Whether on the Golden Core battlefield or the Crystal Battlefield, the disparity between the two sides was obvious. Even a primary school student could see that the Flame Alliance had no chance of winning.
But.
The situation on the battlefield was the complete opposite.
BANG!
A Plasma Bomb roared, the power of a single shot killing a fourth-tier Dragonman!
And this was already the fourth Golden Core-level being from the Candle Python Cave to fall in this battle!
Li Jinhua’s Cyan Dragon Claw moved silently, weaving through the void to reap the lives of the Candle Python Cave’s Golden Core-level beings. When a Nascent Soul True Monarch shamelessly stooped to ambush Golden Core cultivators, wasn’t every strike a guaranteed kill?
"Something’s wrong!"
"This spirit ship, and those two Flame Alliance Golden Cores... there’s something wrong with all of them!"
"Fall back, fall back!"
The people from Candle Python Cave weren’t idiots. A dignified Golden Core cultivator’s Defense Power was plain for all to see. How could they die from a simple hit?!
As for the techniques unleashed by the three Flame Alliance Golden Cores, while they looked impressive, their actual power, as far as they could sense, was nowhere near this terrifying!
It was uncanny!
Bizarre!
This abnormal situation made the Candle Python Cave Golden Cores shudder with fear.
Even though they still hadn’t discovered Li Jinhua’s existence, they were already desperate to flee. They were all shrewd individuals; how could they not see that if they didn’t run now, they would die without even knowing how!
’They run so fast. I’ve only killed four.’
On the Crystal Battlefield, Li Jinhua was trading blows evenly with two Core Formation cultivators from the Candle Python Cave, while sighing internally.
’Once these Golden Core cultivators are focused on escaping, they become much harder to kill. It’s not that I can’t chase them down. If I were willing to go all out, it wouldn’t be difficult to kill every Golden Core cultivator present.’
’But... that would be too obvious and would go against the True Treasure Pavilion’s policy. They are still wary of the Star Casting Hall and don’t dare to start an all-out war.’
Therefore, Li Jinhua couldn’t overdo it.
’So... I can only kill one or two more.’ Li Jinhua’s golden eyes flashed as she locked onto a tall woman wearing a silver mask.
It was the True Disciple from the Star Casting Hall who had once hunted Su Ye!
’The Sixth True Disciple, Ran Ningshuang.’
’Heh...’
"Su Ye, keep her busy."
Li Jinhua sent the message with a flicker of her Divine Sense.
At the same time, her Cyan Dragon Claw gathered power, ready to strike!
