Chapter 190: Benefactor (II)
The other party definitely knew how powerful the master realm was, unlike him.
At this moment, escaping with his life was the most important thing. Whether he could leave Lu Zhenshan on Mist Island was secondary.
Suddenly, it was as if the willow tree king had responded to Lu Zhenshan’s words.
Countless dazzling golden lights shone out from under the ground of the entire island.
From the sky, the thick mist covering an area of 10 kilometers was instantly pierced through like a porcupine, and countless golden chains reached out into the sky.
On the sea where the spectators were gathered, “What’s that!” someone screamed loudly.
The golden chains not only pierced through the thick mist, but also the clouds above the island.
In addition, the clouds were absorbed by the golden chains in the blink of an eye and completely disappeared.
“This is too scary. Can those sect masters escape?”
Most people were puzzled.
If the golden chains instantly absorbed the clouds, one would probably die immediately upon making contact with it. Those below the master realm would not be able to withstand it at all.
“Sect Master…”
The disciples of the Kunshan Sect were all worried as they stared intently in the direction of Mist Island.
They had just experienced the death of four court heads. If the sect master died here, the Kunshan Sect would suffer more than just heavy losses.
There was no need to say what the consequences would be.
At the periphery of the island, near the sea, facing the sudden attack from the golden light coming from underground, Chen Yiming quickly dodged. At the same time, he spread the black fog to a range of 100 meters, giving him more room to move.
The golden chains attacked in a straight line. Although they were extremely fast, Chen Yiming used his internal force to maintain a height of more than 10 meters in the air in order to dodge the tree roots coming from underground.
The black fog had concealed his exact location, and there was a distance of more than 10 meters between them. This was enough for him to find a gap to avoid the golden chains that reached out to the sky.
Below, “Hahaha!”
Lu Zhenshan, who had only just managed to catch his breath, suddenly laughed.
Bright red blood flowed out of his entire body, and he had turned into a bloody figure.
The Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist targeted the five internal organs of the human body, so he could naturally use that strange power to strengthen his internal organs.
A sense of vitality emanated from Lu Zhenshan’s body. Chen Yiming had experienced this feeling before. It was similar to the appearance of an invisible circuitry between his cells that could transfer vitality from one cell to another.
This was a secret technique that the Kunshan Sect could cultivate from the complete Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist Technique.
They could get attacked first before counterattacking to injure their opponents. Usually, they would use that strange internal force to continuously stimulate their internal organs. Coupled with a special concoction that produced additional life force, their internal organs would receive a vitality boost.
When they needed to risk their lives, they would use their strange internal force to stimulate the special parts of their organs and release the life force that was usually stored in them.
As time passed, there would be a qualitative change. For a short period of time, the effect would be similar to that of Chen Yiming’s Undying Body talent.
“Ye Jianyuan, just you wait. The dispute between the Kunshan Sect and the Myriad Phenomena Sect is just irreconcilable!” Lu Zhenshan said ruthlessly.
Of course, he did not know what abilities the willow tree king, who had broken through to the master realm, was hiding, but it was definitely not that simple.
When Chen Yiming stopped, he thought that it was because Ye Jianyuan had chickened out at the last moment. He had decided to split the risk between the two of them and prioritize his own survival.
After the first wave of attack from the golden chains ended, the second wave started after the golden chains locked on to all of the humans’ positions.
“Swish!”
Lu Zhenshan traveled almost in a straight line and charged towards the shore as though he was teleporting.
There were countless golden chains blocking the way for hundreds of meters, and many screams sounded along the way.
Lu Zhenshan didn’t have Chen Yiming’s black fog ability to conceal his body. The golden chains could accurately lock onto his position, so it was naturally impossible for him to avoid them completely.
The large amount of vitality and internal force in his body was constantly being absorbed by the golden chains. Fortunately, they were quickly separated after making contact, and there was an endless stream of additional life force to replenish it. Coupled with the additional resistance brought about by the activity, he could barely hold on.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, Lu Zhenshan would have long been sucked dry by the power of the master realm.
“You’ve misunderstood. I never planned to let you leave,” Chen Yiming muttered to himself as he followed Lu Zhenshan.
At the same time, the black fog that was originally 100 meters wide instantly expanded to nearly a kilometer, covering Lu Zhenshan.
The sea was right in front of Lu Zhenshan when his vision suddenly turned black.
This forced him to stop in his tracks. There were golden chains everywhere. If they pierced straight through his body, no amount of additional life force would be enough to counter the willow tree king’s absorption ability.
When did Ye Jianyuan’s black fog expand?
He had clearly put enough distance between them?
Lu Zhenshan and Ye Jianyuan were old rivals, and they knew each other very well.
The strength of the internal force after fusion was far stronger than the internal force of a single cultivation technique. The strength of Ye Jianyuan’s black fog internal force alone could at most support him to expand the black fog to a range of 100 meters.
“It’s not the real Ye Jianyuan!”
In an instant, a terrifying thought appeared in his mind.
Then, “The quantity and strength of the shadow sword from before are also different.”
Lu Zhenshan recalled the previous scene in his mind and discovered more abnormalities.
The reason why he had not noticed it earlier was mainly because he was in a life-and-death situation where the tree roots were threatening him. He did not have the time to think about it.
Secondly, at that time, a large number of cracks had already appeared on his internal force defense, and the effectiveness of his protection had decreased greatly. He subconsciously thought that it was not unusual for it to be pierced through by the nine shadow swords.
At this moment, as Ye Jianyuan’s longtime opponent, he realized that something was amiss when he calmed down to think about it.
In particular, Ye Jianyuan’s black fog had always been used as a supplementary ability. Its lethality had always come from the internal force after fusion, not the shadow sword formed by the black fog internal force.
Nine shadow swords.
There was someone who had such a habit.
Was it him?
The masked man’s appearance suddenly appeared in his mind.
“Ha!”
Under the cover of the black fog, the 100-meter-long sword formed by the strength-based internal force struck Lu Zhenshan, who was standing still, and sent him flying.
“Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Continuous screams rang out.
Lu Zhenshan’s body collided with the golden chains, instantly attracting the attention of the willow tree king. A few more golden chains instantly shot out from the ground and pierced through his limbs and chest.
Lu Zhenshan’s protective internal force collapsed. Immediately after, his flesh, fat, internal force, and other things that could be absorbed were all extracted like water by the golden chains.
The entire process only lasted for a few moments. Lu Zhenshan struggled with all his might, but because he had lost a large amount of flesh and blood, his entire body felt as weak as if it had lost all its strength.
Finally, his entire body was blown away by the wind, turning into a large amount of powder that scattered all over the ground.
“What!”
Chen Yiming, who was not far away, gasped.
Even the vitality brought about by the Level-2 Undying Body talent might not be able to withstand the golden chains from the willow tree king.
The only good news was that even though the willow tree king had broken through to the master realm, its intelligence was still not very high. All its attacks were still based on its instincts.
From the way it used the golden chains, it could be seen that although it was powerful, its movements were not very flexible. It was just shooting out randomly.
“Swish!”
Chen Yiming took one last glance at the powder, which was all that was left of Lu Zhenshan’s corpse, and charged out of the island under the cover of the black fog.
However, the escape from the island was still not over. He was still within the range of the thick mist.
As expected, very soon, “Rumble…”
At the bottom of the sea near the island, thick golden tree roots shot out of the water like sea monsters, chasing after the black fog in which Chen Yiming was hiding.
Countless tree roots, like tentacles, surrounded Chen Yiming from all directions.
At the same time, a large number of golden chains shot towards Chen Yiming.
However, after leaving the island, the space to dodge had become infinitely larger. On the other hand, the golden chains had to be shot out from the willow tree king’s body.
Under the cover of the black fog, Chen Yiming easily dodged the attacks from the golden chains and tree roots.
