Chapter 1550: Death of s.h.i.+ Hua
On a certain part of the battlefield, explosions rang out incessantly.
Three cultivators who were riddled with wounds were attacking Great General s.h.i.+ Hua.
The Great General’s golden robe had already been reduced to tattered ribbons, revealing large sections of her soft, fair skin, which presented a unique sense of beauty.
If it weren’t for the fact that her expression had been twisted with rage and a hint of insanity in the heat of battle, she would appear a lot like a vulnerable damsel in distress.
“Frosty Moon, Myriad Light Wheel.” Su Qianyun stepped forward and evaded Great General s.h.i.+ Hua’s lethal golden rocks before pressing her hands toward s.h.i.+ Hua, who was still over a kilometer away.
The Moonlight Disc split up into three thousand Moonlight Discs as bright blue light overpowered the crimson sky. They quickly rotated and tore through the air before descending with unstoppable force, freezing the s.p.a.ce around them with their devastating killing intent.
“This power… It’s even stronger than before?” Great General s.h.i.+ Hua stared up into the sky with astonishment on her face. “Was she hiding her strength? No… Impossible…”
Great General s.h.i.+ Hua shook her head. No one would be stupid enough to hide their true strength in a battle like this, where death could strike at a moment’s notice.
Could it be that the woman in the blue palatial dress had made some sort of drastic improvement during the course of the battle?
s.h.i.+ Hua was in complete disbelief. What kind of freaks was she battling?
She immediately flung the countless golden rocks around her into the sky toward the three thousand Moonlight Discs.
The rocks and discs clashed violently, creating an extremely vibrant spectacle to behold.
The extended period of relentless energy expenditure made s.h.i.+ Hua very exhausted, but she couldn’t let down her guard.
Boom!
The air beside s.h.i.+ Hua suddenly became active before releasing all of its energy!
The tall and slender figure was once again inundated by a spontaneous explosion.
“I’m going to kill you!” A slightly disheveled figure charged out from the explosion before frantically closing in on the elegant and graceful man in the distance.
The reason why she could never let down her guard was exactly because of Xuanyuan Cheng’s terrifying explosions.
Her clothes were in tatters because of Xuanyuan Cheng. Her face was blackened because of Xuanyuan Cheng. She had been injured, also because of Xuanyuan Cheng! Everything was Xuanyuan Cheng’s fault!
That exquisitely beautiful woman was supposed to be the a.s.sa.s.sin among them, but in Great General s.h.i.+ Hua’s opinion, that handsome man in the graceful white robe was the true a.s.sa.s.sin among them!
How was he not an a.s.sa.s.sin when he was able to spontaneously make the air around her explode?
Thus, Great General s.h.i.+ Hua charged toward Xuanyuan Cheng.
Xuanyuan Cheng’s expression remained unchanged upon seeing this. He wielded an antiquated, yellow sword with a yin-yang projection beneath his feet, which encompa.s.sed an area with a radius of over a kilometer. Countless streams of white wind revolved around his body, which could help him antic.i.p.ate his enemy’s movements as well as buffer enemy attacks.
He did not panic, not even in the slightest. The dao of Myriad Spirit Taichi was his most proficient dao, and all that explosive stuff was only secondary. After cultivating in the dao of Myriad Spirit Taichi, he could block and dispel all enemy attacks!
s.h.i.+ Hua appeared before him in the blink of an eye, tearing through the white mist and streams of wind with her lethal pink and white flowers.
Xuanyuan Cheng’s expression remained unchanged as he met her attacks with his sword!
Three seconds later.
“Pwah!”
Xuanyuan Cheng threw up a mouthful of blood before escaping into the distance with wounds riddled all over his body as he deterred s.h.i.+ Hua with a barrage of relentless explosions.
“Get back here!” Great General s.h.i.+ Hua gave chase with killing intent rising from her body.
Xuanyuan Cheng’s plan to battle his enemy with his dao of Myriad Spirit Taichi had failed almost instantly, leaving him with no choice but to fall back on his explosions…
Sure enough, explosions were still his forte!
Xuanyuan Cheng was feeling quite depressed as he was forced to admit to this fact.
Su Qianyun immediately began to engage in guerilla warfare as s.h.i.+ Hua directed her attention toward Xuanyuan Cheng. Her Moonlight Disc flashed through the air in an extremely unpredictable manner, making it extremely troublesome for s.h.i.+ Hua to defend herself against it.
The blue Moonlight Disc hurtled toward s.h.i.+ Hua from behind.
s.h.i.+ Hua didn’t even turn around as she used her golden rocks to blast the Moonlight Disc flying.
Bam!
The Moonlight Disc was forced back into the air.
No matter what type of attack was being thrown at her, s.h.i.+ Hua was always able to detect it without fail.
However, a lithe and graceful figure suddenly emerged from the shadow of the Moonlight Disc.
A silver light flashed through the air before stabbing toward s.h.i.+ Hua with boundless killing intent!
“Hmph! The coward finally rears her head, I see!” s.h.i.+ Hua directed the golden rocks and lethal flowers beside her straight toward Ye Ling.
Ye Ling had only just emerged, but she had to face almost all of Great General s.h.i.+ Hua’s firepower!
To s.h.i.+ Hua’s surprise, her enemy was not fl.u.s.tered at all by this situation. Her expression of single-minded ferocity remained unchanged even as the golden rocks and lethal flowers continued to hurtle toward her.
s.h.i.+ Hua was perplexed upon seeing this. Ye Ling would not be able to kill her in this situation, and if she continued to forge on ahead recklessly, Ye Ling would most likely be insta-killed by her attacks instead.
So why was she doing this? Was this a kamikaze attack?
At this moment, s.h.i.+ Hua suddenly noticed that a yin-yang projection formation had already appeared beneath her feet, and she was standing at its very center.
When was this set up?!
Could it be… during those explosions?
s.h.i.+ Hua’s expression s.h.i.+fted drastically as she suddenly caught onto something.
Ye Ling continued to press on with an enticing light glowing in her bright eyes. A faint smile appeared on her face as her Sword to Send You Safely On Your Way s.h.i.+mmered with a silvery light.
Ye Ling’s body then suddenly disappeared, and all of s.h.i.+ Hua’s attacks landed on thin air!
At the same time, Ye Ling appeared above the yin-yang projection before charging toward s.h.i.+ Hua at the same speed as before!
A lethal, silvery light flashed through the air!
s.h.i.+ Hua had no time to defend or evade before a sharp pain shot through her neck.
Heaven and earth began to spin around her. It was her head that was actually spinning.
She knew that Ye Ling was proficient at using shadows to her advantage, but never would she have thought that Xuanyuan Cheng would leave behind a yin-yang formation during one of his explosions, thereby creating the ideal s.p.a.ce for Ye Ling to operate in.
In the end… she really had fallen to a few Return to Void Stage mighty figures…
Great General s.h.i.+ Hua lamented in her heart as she slowly closed her eyes.
Ye Ling was panting heavily, but her face was glowing with joy. Even though her features had paled from exertion, her cheeks were flushed with excitement.
“Master… I did it!” She gripped her silver dagger tightly in her hands as she turned toward the battlefield in the distance with a smile, as if to tell An Lin that she was no longer just a useless disciple who could only drag her master down. Instead, she was now capable of fighting side by side with her master to destroy some of the most powerful enemies on the battlefield!
