Chapter 467 - 182: Encirclement, Mid Stage of Foundation Establishment Power, 2 Spiritual Fires? (Part 2)
That defensive magical artifact was already shattered to pieces.
Broken!
However, fortunately, it managed to block that one sword.
Thus, Zhou Changwang, enduring the piercing pain in his heart spirit, turned his hand and took out a top-grade defensive magical artifact again, and pulled out a large stack of spirit talismans, all of which he activated.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
One by one, demon elephants, evil-faced ghosts, mountain ghosts, and one-eyed demons emerged.
In the sky, layer upon layer of dark clouds quickly gathered, with endless lightning brewing within.
Sealing Thunder Talisman!
Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique!
Small Five Elements Thousand Thunder Skill!
Five Thunders Bombardment!
Various thunder skills and magic rained down like raindrops.
Taking this opportunity, Zhou Changwang used the Light Splitting and Shadow Transformation Skill, quickly disappearing from the spot, and managed to evade the attacks of those cultivators.
Then in the next moment.
His figure appeared halfway up the inner wall of the volcano crater, intending to break through towards a Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer Practitioner.
"Get down here for me!"
Clang!
A flying sword turned into a light beam, fiercely colliding with his defensive magical artifact.
Zhou Changwang’s figure fell downward again.
It was Ye Ping’an who struck.
After breaking through to Foundation Establishment, his strength increased greatly. Together with the lower-grade treasure artifact, its power far surpassed that of a top-grade treasure artifact. Therefore, even though he just broke through, he was already much stronger than ordinary Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
"Not good!"
After falling, Zhou Changwang barely stabilized himself and suddenly felt a shock in his heart.
His body rapidly moved sideways.
But it was of no use.
A fiery-red flying sword followed him relentlessly.
Clang!
The second top-grade defensive magical treasure shattered along with it.
And the remaining power of the magical artifact did not diminish, striking hard on his Taiyi Golden Armor Technique.
Boom!
Spiritual Power dimmed rapidly, and the defense was directly reduced by fifty percent.
"Mid Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Is this the strength of Mid Stage of Foundation Establishment?
So strong.
I can’t hold it back at all!"
Zhou Changwang’s face changed dramatically.
Instinctively, he cast the Black Heaven Technique, Gravity Technique, and Dungeon Technique.
And took out a defensive magical artifact once again.
But this time, it was only a top-grade defensive magical artifact.
It was also the last one he refined.
As for the defensive golden tripod, which he had just captured from his loot.
He simply had no time to refine it, so naturally, he couldn’t utilize its effects.
Moreover, he knew that even if he refined it, it would still be useless.
Because it couldn’t hold it off; at most, it would only resist for a while longer.
However, fortunately, his desperate counterattacks were not completely ineffective either.
Whether it was the Sealing Thunder Talisman, Five Elements Thunder Transformation Technique, Small Five Elements Thousand Thunder Skill, or Five Thunders Bombardment, all were top-tier thunder skills with extraordinary power.
Though, due to dispersion, their destructive power was not as great as imagined.
At least for the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, they weren’t much of a threat.
But let’s not forget, there were still seven Qi Cultivation cultivators present.
How could they withstand two, three, or four or five thunder skill attacks when they could barely withstand one?
"Ah..."
"Young Master, save me!"
"No..."
...
A wave of lightning struck down.
As many as four cultivators were directly thunderstruck to death.
Only three Qi Refining Ninth Level Cultivators, with higher methods, survived, as they weren’t specifically targeted.
"How dare you court death!"
Xue Xuanqing, seeing this, instantly became furious, his eyes slightly reddened.
Because among the four cultivators who died, one was his biological nephew.
Saying he was his nephew, but his brother had died in an accident early on, and even his brother’s wife was taken care of by him. This nephew was born the second year after his brother’s death... With no wife or children of his own, this was probably his only descendant...
A spiritual light surged from his flying sword again.
Swoosh~!
He quickly stabbed towards Zhou Changwang.
At first instance, it shattered Zhou Changwang’s third top-grade defensive magical artifact into pieces of debris, and then the power didn’t decline, penetrating like a spear through his defensive armor.
Boom!
The Taiyi Golden Armor Technique shattered in response.
Clang!
It then reached Zhou Changwang’s forehead.
Yet it remained frozen there.
Unable to pierce through!
Silently, a spirit talisman on Zhou Changwang’s waist abruptly broke apart.
Substitute Talisman!
This moment.
It was precisely the Substitute Talisman that blocked the strike for him.
Allowing him to escape from danger.
Cold sweat drenched his entire body instantly.
Danger! Danger! Danger!
Zhou Changwang hurriedly used the Taiyi Golden Armor Technique once again.
With a wave of his hand, he flung out more than ten spirit talismans.
Then, he swiftly executed the Gravity Technique, Black Heaven Technique, and Small Five Elements Thousand Thunder Skill.
Only then did he grit his teeth, and his body vanished!
Vanished into the ground.
He had no choice but to flee.
The strength of a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was overwhelming.
It was like a dimensional strike to him.
He couldn’t resist it at all.
"Hmm? Where did he go?"
And at that moment, everyone’s vision went black.
When they finally broke free from the darkness, they looked around but had long lost sight of the opponent.
Just then, the various evil-faced ghosts, mountain ghosts, demon elephants, and one-eyed demons that Zhou Changwang had previously summoned quickly rushed up.
Although the strength of these spirit talisman summons was generally weak, only around mid-stage Qi Cultivation and late-stage Qi Cultivation level.
But their numbers were overwhelming.
With no choice, everyone quickly took action.
It took quite a while for all the spirit talisman summons to be completely exterminated.
"He must have jumped into the magma.
However, once he dares to come out, he won’t be able to escape."
Xue Xuanqing scanned with his divine sense and felt the magma underground being violently stirred, as if impacted by something.
A sinking feeling in his heart, he spoke.
This was definitely not the result he wanted to accept.
He wanted to pursue him.
But within the magma, filled with fire poison, and directions indistinguishable — if lost in there, without enough cultivation true essence, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it either.
