Chapter 1101 - 967: Are You Stupid?
Falling towards the ground... well, it’s not unacceptable.
The withered man had already figured out his response. After all, the ground was covered with snow, and he had the Water Attribute!
Once he landed, he could use the Elemental Convergence of the attribute to escape, with possibly a higher success rate.
However, why did I end up flying into the sky just now?
The next moment, he saw a horrifying scene, finally remembered the reason, and couldn’t help but curse, "Damn it... Earth Spike!"
Unfortunately, his body was stiff, his vocal cords out of control, and he couldn’t utter a word.
Immediately afterward, his body heavily collided with an Earth Spike, and for a moment, his entire Ice Armor seemed like it would shatter.
Taking advantage of the recoil from the impact, he tried hard to control his body’s balance and attempted to use the Water Element Convergence.
However, right after, three Ice Arrows shot straight at him.
"Damn it... there’s a Water Attribute Supreme as well," in an instant, the withered man was terrified: Who the hell did I provoke?
You can’t assume immunity to Ice Arrow attacks just because he’s Water Attribute; there’s no such reason under the heavens.
He’s been a Grand Patriarch for quite some time, having seen countless battles between Awakened individuals of the same attribute, he knew this well.
He even realized what the opponent intended to do, "They’re trying to break my Ice Armor!"
Indeed, though both are Water Attribute, the water element manipulation rules are different for each.
In a short time, it’s tough to quickly dissolve the other’s rules, let alone absorb them, it can even cause some disturbances.
The withered man’s Ice Armor was already close to breaking. In this case, a Golden Arrow with the same force was far less concerning than an Ice Arrow with equal strength.
The Ice Arrow hit him, his Ice Armor shattered with a loud crash, and immediately afterward, another Thunder Dragon came crashing onto him.
The man’s body was sent flying far away, twitching instinctively.
Just then, a shadow swiftly flashed by. Qu Jianlei, seeing this, couldn’t help but shout, "No~"
However, it was already too late. A gray light flashed, and the withered man’s head flew off.
The one who acted was Flower Scorpion, who had learned Saber Technique from Qu Jianlei. The short blade she held, made by the boss, was extremely sharp.
She just happened to be lurking nearby and indeed sensed that the man was truly stiff!
Catch him when he’s down! In the Wasteland, Flower Scorpion’s ability to seize battle opportunities was top-notch.
Wasn’t she told not to use Spiritual Power? She just used the short blade and even specifically sealed off her Spiritual Power.
Her plan was sound. However, the Imperial cultivation system had too little understanding of the soul.
The next moment, she only felt her brain chill, followed by a piercing headache, her body shook, and she toppled headlong into the snow.
Because her Body Technique was too fast, she rolled continuously for over ten meters before dissipating that inertia.
Immediately afterward, she clutched her head with both hands, rolling incessantly in the snow, her entire body trembling violently.
A low groaning sound came from her throat, yet she was desperately suppressing herself, preventing a scream of agony.
"This is really..." Qu Jianlei gritted his teeth helplessly, "You’re a bit too fierce, aren’t you?"
A-level counters a Supreme, he could understand this impulse, but please... the other side hadn’t used conventional means of the Awakened!
He clearly perceived that at the moment Lund was beheaded, a Soul Body flew out of the head, surging into Flower Scorpion’s Baihui!
A Supreme Level Ghost Cultivator, the soul rushed into the mind of an A-level... it left him nowhere to start helping.
What should he think of doing next, freezing Flower Scorpion?
He sighed inwardly, but didn’t slow his actions. Another Thunder Dragon was sent out, "Check her condition, don’t use Spiritual Power!"
The Thunder Dragon hit a Supreme Soul Body directly, he was striking with hatred, and the force was extraordinarily strong.
The soul could only let out a wailing cry before it was shattered and dispersed.
At the same time, the silhouette of a person darted over; it was Granny Jia coming to care for Flower Scorpion.
Outside the Defense Array, only three of them were present, Qinghu and Celestial Sound teleported into the Defense Array once the battle began.
The three of them had been teleported to an outer location, with Qu Jianlei taking the initiative, while Granny Jia and Flower Scorpion provided support.
Granny Jia’s support was top-notch, timely launching Ice Arrows, which showed her excellent grasp of timing.
But the timing Flower Scorpion seized... wasn’t bad, though her method really left one speechless.
Qu Jianlei, seeing Granny Jia arrive, didn’t dwell on Flower Scorpion anymore and instead performed a Finger Technique, "Emotion... Purification!"
He wielded this Emotion Purification with significant force because Flower Scorpion... was possibly in a bad state.
Countless small light spots danced in the air, many Yin Souls fleeing in disarray — with Lund’s death, they instinctively sought to escape.
But there was no way Qu Jianlei would let them flee, Emotion Purification after Purification was sent out.
Unsure how many he launched, but only thirty percent of his Spiritual Qi remained inside him before he reluctantly stopped.
The majority of Yin Souls had already been purified, while the four inside the Defense Array were frequently making their moves.
So far, both major commanders had completely dissipated, and out of the eight A-level generals, only three remained, appearing quite dim.
Paranoid and Celestial Sound were still dealing with those three, and Qinghu had already rushed out, "How’s Flower Scorpion?"
Having witnessed everything that just happened, she had to admit, even she couldn’t help but admire the woman’s audacity.
Who gave you the courage to think about killing a Supreme and even dared to get close to them?
"It’s not good," Granny Jia replied solemnly, "Whether she can get through this depends on her luck."
Over a hundred kilometers away, someone sighed softly in the void, "This half of an old friend... sigh, should I lend a helping hand?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head, flicked his wrist, and launched another Cold Flame Bullet, scattering an A-level soul body, "Quickly, clean up the battlefield."
Everyone else went to clean up the battlefield, while he crouched down beside Flower Scorpion and sighed.
"You fool, are you crazy? Is it your turn to intervene?"
An image flickered, it was Claire, nervously asking, "Flower Scorpion sister... how is she?"
She also liked to clean the battlefield, but Flower Scorpion had been close to her for a long time.
From the first day they met, her sister began protecting her; her successful Awakening was also thanks to her sister’s strong support.
At this moment, Qu Jianlei was discussing with Little Lake, "Can you go into her mind and have a look?"
Big Head Butterfly slowly revolved, "I wish I could, but I can’t."
"During the crossing, for unknown reasons, we bound each other, but with others, it really doesn’t work."
"Otherwise, I’d directly look into people’s minds for memories, instead of searching online for information."
Qu Jianlei knew it was true, but he couldn’t help but ask again, "Can’t you check the state without looking at memories?"
"It’s difficult," Big Head Butterfly continued rotating, "I truly don’t know much about the conversion of human brain information."
"But didn’t you give them the Soul-Stabilizing Pill you refined?"
"I did," Qu Jianlei responded with a bitter smile, "But this is my first time doing Alchemy."
His "Alchemy Scripture" came from the Celestial Hook Enigma Mansion and he hadn’t engaged with it before, making this a last-minute endeavor.
It wasn’t just because he feared attracting attention, the primary issue was that the threshold was extremely high.
"Many medicinal herbs are unavailable, and our calculated substitutes have uncertain effects."
There must be effects; he bought some animals for testing, otherwise he wouldn’t dare to use everyone as guinea pigs.
Big Head Butterfly twirled twice, "We’ll have to rely on good fortune."
Qu Jianlei snorted at the words, thinking about his frustration, he bit his teeth angrily, "Pretending to be a hero!"
"Don’t think that way, she was able to trap the opponent’s soul, eliminating a hidden threat."
"You make it sound easy," Qu Jianlei scornfully lectured Little Lake, "I haven’t even figured out Ghost Cultivators."
"Hm?" Big Head Butterfly slowly turned twice, skeptically asking, "Boss, what did I say first?"
"It wasn’t you?" Although Qu Jianlei was crouching, he instantly dashed far away.
He warily glanced around, then spoke deeply, "Who’s there?"
The only response was the howling mountain wind.
But in the next moment, a figure flashed in from afar, laughing heartily, "Boss, a great harvest!"
The newcomer was Paranoid; he and Claire were the earliest to enter the scene, sensing several of Lund’s hiding spots.
However, Qu Jianlei had no intention to share his joy at this time, only shaking his head, "Put it aside first, let’s discuss it later."
The next moment, Qinghu also returned, "Boss, can I take a look too?"
"We’ll talk about this later," Qu Jianlei shook his head; he truly had no mood for these matters.
Soon after, Celestial Sound arrived too, "Boss, can I help check on the situation of my sister?"
"That could work," Qu Jianlei suddenly reacted; isn’t there still the Light Attribute?
But immediately, he wished he could slap himself—couldn’t I also simulate the Light Attribute?
"Forget it, Celestial Sound, your strength is still a bit insufficient. I’ll do the Perception... you release the Emotion Purification."
Emotion Purification truly doesn’t cause any impact on normal people.
However, for wandering souls, the damage isn’t just some minor hit.
As Qu Jianlei slowly perceived, he discovered Flower Scorpion’s tense body gradually relaxed.
"It works, Boss!" Celestial Sound shouted with joy, "You should release Purification Technique too... your effect is stronger."
She was truly of the Light Attribute, her Initial Attribute during Awakening.
But she had to admit, Boss’s simulated Light Attribute might lack purity, but its power was enough!
Right at that moment, Flower Scorpion let out a muffled groan, mumbling faintly.
"No, don’t purify... I want to receive this guy’s memories, it’s Supreme!"
"You..." Qu Jianlei had an urge to punch someone, "You’re not afraid of bursting from it?"
"It might be a forgery," Granny Jia coldly spoke, "Prove that yours is genuine."
Seeing Flower Scorpion unresponsive, Celestial Sound decisively fired a "Firefly Technique" at her.
