Chapter 341: Chapter 223: Multi-front Siege, Divine Skills, Kunpeng Swallowing Technique!_3
The long saber’s crimson light streaked across the sky.
"Da Jing Dynasty, Jiang Shu!"
Jiang Shu announced his name as he charged forward with unrivaled momentum. With a sweep of his hand, an ape-shaped Puppet manifested instantly, blocking Ye Huang’s attack.
In just two breaths, he stood before the Kunpeng illusion with absolute strength. His Bloodfall Hidden Flood Dragon Saber gathered immense Primordial Power and Spiritual Power, and he slashed down.
BOOM!
Jiang Shu’s arrival shattered the battlefield’s balance. Ye Huang and Yue Baxian could no longer remain deadlocked; both made their move, each striving to be the first to slay the Kunpeng!
"Da Jing Dynasty... Xue Xuan, isn’t that your Dynasty? This Jiang Shu can actually withstand attacks from Ye Huang and Yue Baxian, and now he’s competing with them for this opportunity? Could such a genius truly hail from Da Jing, a mere mid-level Dynasty?"
Watching the explosive bursts of energy in the sky, Lou Liang’s pupils contracted violently. He couldn’t help but turn to Xue Xuan beside him, his voice laced with disbelief as he spoke.
At this moment, Xue Xuan was even more stunned than Lou Liang. He had never imagined that the one who had charged forward so fiercely was Jiang Shu!
Even if he doesn’t seize the opportunity, this battle alone places Jiang Shu on par with Ye Huang and Yue Baxian! Our Da Jing Dynasty... this time, a true dragon has emerged!
He trembled slightly, not daring to contemplate Jiang Shu’s future.
An Outer Disciple? That’s a certainty! He could even contend for a position as an Inner Sect Disciple! By then, the Sect’s rewards would be enough to elevate the Da Jing Dynasty to a high-level, perhaps even a top-tier Dynasty. Although I’ll already be in the Sect by then, the Da Jing Dynasty is still my home. Watching it grow stronger is my dream! Jiang Shu...
「Above the sky.」
Jiang Shu and his ape-shaped Puppet; Ye Huang; Yue Baxian and his Protective Vajra. Three forces, simultaneously attacking the Kunpeng!
Since they couldn’t stop each other, they joined forces, each aiming to be the one to deliver the final blow!
A Condensing Seed Realm Demon Beast was indeed powerful.
But an illusion was, after all, still an illusion.
Coupled with the suppressive effect of the Lion Sound Buddha Bell Seal, the Kunpeng shrieked repeatedly under the barrage of attacks.
In its ferocious struggle, endless energy erupted from its maw.
In just the span of half an incense stick, the ape-shaped Puppet was almost destroyed. The Protective Vajra completely dissipated. Even the bell shadow restraining the Kunpeng shattered under its repeated impacts.
The battle was incredibly brutal. A pale-faced Ye Huang was pushing himself to execute Supreme Martial Arts. Battle-worn and bloodied, Yue Baxian could barely maintain his grip on his giant halberd. His blood surged, and Primordial Power roared within him as he prepared to unleash his ultimate strike.
And Jiang Shu, as his Holy Embryo breathed, adjusted his condition, then unleashed the Heavenly Gang Dragon Capturing Hand!
All three attacks were incredibly powerful.
However, just as the numerous young geniuses below were speculating about who would prevail, the Kunpeng at the center of their three-pronged assault suddenly flapped its massive wings. Its enormous body shot nearly a hundred zhang upwards, attempting to flee!
"Where do you think you’re going!"
"We absolutely cannot let it escape!"
Yue Baxian and Ye Huang shouted almost simultaneously, their eyes practically splitting. They had invested so much; how could they let this Kunpeng illusion escape?
Once it fled, who knew if this Kunpeng could recover? Their current advantage was purely due to the Lion Sound Buddha Bell Seal and the Protective Vajra Talisman. If they missed this chance, defeating it again would be impossible. They might even face a devastating counterattack from the Kunpeng!
Ye Huang drew a sharp breath. Unlike Jiang Shu and Yue Baxian, he had already received a Divine Skill inheritance, so he instantly understood the nature of the opportunity presented by this Condensing Seed Realm Demon Beast Illusion.
A Divine Skill even more powerful than my Heart Lotus Platform Technique! How could I just stand by and let it escape!
A streak of light flashed as Ye Huang accelerated to his top speed, but his velocity was laughable before the Kunpeng.
With a single flap of its wings, the Kunpeng covered dozens of miles.
This absolute speed stunned all the geniuses. Even Yue Baxian, who had dashed out simultaneously, could only clench his fists, left far behind.
He hadn’t expected such an outcome. After investing so much, the great opportunity was still slipping away.
How infuriating! But this time, I truly gave it my all.
"Alas, what a pity! Who would have thought the illusion of this Condensing Seed Realm Demon Beast would actually flee? Aren’t such illusions supposed to lack intelligence?"
"Indeed, Demon Beast Illusions usually lack intelligence, but this one holds a great opportunity. Such opportunities are never easy to obtain. Besides, its escape doesn’t necessarily mean failure; this is our chance! The Kunpeng is definitely at the end of its tether. Whoever finds it first will seize the great opportunity!"
"Right, let’s go! Search quickly!"
The young geniuses below sprang into action. The opportunity they had deemed impossible moments ago now seemed within reach.
However, just as they transformed into streaks of light, something astonishing happened behind Ye Huang and Yue Baxian.
Jiang Shu’s Holy Embryo activated its breathing technique! Huge wings, formed from the massive condensation of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, sprouted from his back. With a single flap, he surged past the other two, instantly matching the Kunpeng’s speed, covering dozens of miles in a flash as he gave chase!
Ancient Forbidden Technique: Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings!
Quasi-Supreme Martial Arts: Heavenly Gang Dragon Capturing Hand!
Before the astonished eyes of Ye Huang and Yue Baxian, Jiang Shu appeared directly behind the Kunpeng. A colossal, dragon-shaped claw materialized before him, with the ape-shaped Puppet following closely behind it. With lightning speed, it struck the head of the Kunpeng illusion, the Condensing Seed Realm Demon Beast.
BOOM!
At Jiang Shu’s mental command, the nearly destroyed ape-shaped Puppet, along with several useless Treasures, detonated instantly!
It was like the descent of a great sun, its brilliance blinding.
An endless shockwave erupted from the center of the explosion, sweeping across the surroundings. The entire world seemed on the verge of collapse.
Amidst this earth-shattering blast, the head of the Kunpeng illusion finally, slowly, dissipated.
A ball of light from its very center shot into Jiang Shu’s forehead.
Divine Skill.
Kunpeng Swallowing Technique!
