Chapter 561: Fierce Battle
Liu Ming’s pupils couldn’t help shrinking slightly. He made a gesture, and the billowing black gas rolled out from his body, turning into a vague black shadow in a blink of an eye.
Suddenly, there was a fluctuation in the air on the right. A dazzling green light of a foot long pierced through the black shadow that Liu Ming had transformed.
The black shadow suddenly fell apart, but Liu Ming’s body was long gone.
The next moment, not far away, a human figure flashed out; it was Liu Ming.
He snorted coldly. As he changed the gesture, the black mist transformed into a ferocious black tiger. After a frightening roar, it went at the green light.
What he didn’t expect was that the green light shuddered slightly, and it was split into six identical slender green lights. The green lights cleverly avoided the black giant tiger, and it shot from six directions after a turn in the air.
Liu Ming couldn’t think too much. He flicked his sleeves, and a gleam of golden light came out. The golden sand condensed as he chanted, instantly forming a layer of golden sand curtain around him.
The result was out of Liu Ming’s expectation. As the golden sand curtain clashed with the green lights, it could only hold for a moment before six small holes were pierced through on it.
At this moment, Liu Ming finally saw that these six lightning-fast green lights were transformed by six slender flying needles. They were so powerful that they were a treasure no less than a superb spiritual weapon.
With a sudden change in his mind, he took out two Heavy Water Droplets and infused spiritual power into it after rubbing them.
In an instant, a blue-black water ball of ten meters in size suddenly appeared, and it wrapped his whole body tightly.
As expected, although the green lights pierced through the sand curtain defense at once, the speed was instantly slowed down when entering the water curtain; they became extremely slow.
After shaking his figure, Liu Ming easily dodged the green flying needle attack and flashed out of the water ball. At the same time, he turned around and quickly launched several symbols at the water ball.
The young man phantasm also seemed to perceive something wrong. He hurriedly made a gesture, trying to call back the flying needles, but it was too late.
There was a wave of light in the water ball. No matter how the flying needles rammed in it, they couldn’t break free from the water curtain anymore. An invisible force inside tore them apart. All the needles fell to the ground, turned into clouds of mist and vanished into thin air.
At this moment, the young man phantasm moved and disappeared from the spot again in an instant. The next moment, he appeared behind Liu Ming out of thin air. His arm became larger by several feet as he waved and clawed at Liu Ming.
Although Liu Ming didn’t know what kind of technique the young man was using, this move was similar to the Demonized Lan Xi’s. He was familiar with such a move. He easily evaded it with just a strange twist of his body.
The young man phantasm didn’t seem to give up. After another blur, he appeared in front of Liu Ming, launching a series of claw attacks.
Although Liu Ming had the body lightening technique, and his body movements were much faster than usual, but under the continuous hot pursuit of the young man, he still slowly retreated a few steps to avoid the sharp claws.
But the next moment, Liu Ming flicked his sleeve to launch several inferior grade spiritual weapons at the young man phantasm; the spiritual weapons flickered in different colors like they were all going to explode.
But the young man flashed back a hundred meters more away like a wind. He took out a small black axe simultaneously. There were several spirit patterns visible on its surface. The axe handle was even engraved with a strange silver symbol, giving a hint of mysteriousness.
The young man phantasm just moved, and the small axe instantly turned into a giant axe about thirty meters in size. The axe blade was even surrounded by purple gas. With just a wave, a long purple axe light whizzed close to the ground at Liu Ming.
A loud noise!
Those inferior spiritual weapons were swept in by the axe, and they all shattered in a flash.
After a purple flash, it went straight to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming frowned slightly, then he cast out a small black shield.
This human form magical beast really deserved to be a perfect copy of the outstanding phantasm in the past. No matter it was his technique and spiritual weapons, the ordinary magical beasts were comparable to them.
After he made a gesture, the small black shield turned into several ten meters in size in front of him. Nine skulls protruded from the shield, spitting out nine black flames.
“Boom!”
After the black flames collided with the purple axe light, a purple-black intertwined flames rose into the sky; a burst of violent spatial fluctuation swept in all directions.
Just when Liu Ming was in close combat with the young man phantasm, a hundred meters away from the two, the magical monkey transformed by the green flag was also in a fierce battle with Demon Flying Skull.
Demon Flying Skull had transformed into nine heads at this time, constantly using green hair to attack the forty meters giant ape that was transformed by the magical monkey.
Every move of the giant ape could launch several green wind blades, cutting off the overwhelming green hair.
However, the nine Demon Flying Skulls only shuddered slightly, then they immediately launched another barrage of green hair at the giant ape.
The two seemed to be in a stalemate now.
Liu Ming hurriedly glanced at the Demon Flying Skull between the attacks, then he focused on the battle with the young man phantasm.
Although the young man in front of him only had the cultivation of the Condensation Period later stage, he could manipulate multiple superb spiritual weapons at the same time. Therefore, his powerful strength was really rare. It was almost the same as Liu Ming’s talent for mult.i.tasking.
Moreover, this person was also extremely fast; his concealing technique was extremely clever. It was just as simple as the Condensation Period later stage.
According to Liu Ming’s experience, the real strength of this person was even greater than the average cultivator of the Crystallization Period early stage.
After thinking about it, the young man disappeared on the spot.
In the next moment, Liu Ming only felt a chillness behind him; a purple axe was blasting at him like lightning.
He flicked his sleeve right away, and a small crimson sword was already in his hand.
Along with a clear cry, a ten meters crimson sword light shot out.
A loud collision!
After the red sword light and the purple axe light clashed, they suddenly turned into raging red flames, temporarily covering the purple light. After just a moment, the red flames dimmed, and the purple axe light seemed like it was about to break through.
Liu Ming took this opportunity and shook one hand. His figure faded out in front of the young man, then he smashed the bone shield fiercely.
Immediately, a terrifying howl sounded. In a cloud of black gas, nine skull phantasms were pressing against the young man with great momentum.
The young man phantasm could only twist his body and retreat backward.
But at the same time, whistling sounds occurred.
In the golden sand curtain circling and dancing beside Liu Ming, a dense cl.u.s.ter of golden arrows suddenly shot out.
When the young man was in mid-air, he still launched several purple axe lights to deflect more than half of the golden arrows. However, his body was still pierced by a few arrows, making his retreating figure stopped abruptly.
After Liu Ming shook his figure, he got closer to the young man phantasm. The bone shield in his hand just shook, and a huge black wave was immediately set off again. The nine skull phantasms became twice as large and bit ruthlessly.
The young man phantasm groaned, and he suddenly threw the black giant axe in his hand and shook his arms slightly. Two gray giant claws phantasm suddenly soared into the sky. Under a series of loud explosions, the nine skull phantasms were all torn to pieces.
But under the strong recoil, he staggered back for a dozen steps immediately.
At this moment, the golden sand mist rolled over and turned into a large golden net to cover the young man. It tightened and caught the young man phantasm in it. He could no longer move.
Naturally, Liu Ming would not give him any chance to turn the tide. He immediately appeared in front of the young man phantasm and launched a crystal rainbow with the crimson small sword in his hand. It flew around the young man and cut down his head.
“Bang bang.”
The young man phantasm’s head and headless body immediately turned into a burst of white mist. There were also hundred beads of various colors.
Most of them were the lowest grade gray and white beads, and there were also ten green beads and two purple beads.
Seeing this, Liu Ming couldn’t help but shed a surprise expression on his face. With a wave of his hand, he collected all the beads together with his spiritual weapons.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, each magical beast should only drop one Green Sky Pearl, but this young phantom actually dropped so many Green Sky Pearls of different colors at once. After Liu Ming was surprised by it, he immediately recalled Shopkeeper Ye’s words.
It seemed that in the Green Sky Illusory Palace, the magical beast could also rob Green Sky Pearl by killing the cultivator. As long as the cultivator was severely injured to some degree, the Green Sky Illusory Palace would determine that he couldn’t fight again. At the same time, the enchantment would be activated to send the cultivator directly out of the palace.
At this time, all the Green Sky Pearl collected by the cultivator could not be brought out, so they naturally belonged to the magical beast that defeated the cultivator.
In this way, these Green Sky Pearls should have been left by the cultivatos who were defeated by the young man phantasm. It was unfortunately that the beads collected by these cultivators all fell into the hands of then the young man phantasm.
At this moment, Demon Flying Skull flew back to Liu Ming’s side in a flash.
At the same time the young man phantasm disappeared, the giant ape that was fighting with Demon Flying Skull naturally disappeared.
Liu Ming smiled lightly, then he retrieved Demon Flying Skull back into the soul-recovering bag on his waist.
Shortly after the young man phantasm was defeated, the special enchantment in the hall seemed to have changed.
The spirit patterns on the four stone walls flashed and disappeared, and the stone gates in other directions emerged immediately.
This kind of stone gate disappearance usually only appeared in the hall where there was a powerful magical beast. If the cultivator wanted to go out of the hall, he must either be able to kill the magical beast inside or be able to persist for a long enough time under the pursuit of the magical beast.
Seeing this, Liu Ming did not rush into the next hall. Instead, after taking a deep breath, he consumed a golden yuan pill, sat cross-legged and started to regenerate his spiritual power.
This battle may not seem long, but it was quite fierce.
Liu Ming also used 80% of his real strength to be able to slay this human form magical beat, and he almost exhausted most of his spiritual power. So, he wouldn’t simply leave this hall to another hall.
