Chapter 234: … Like a Protagonist

"This stupid toy!!"

Hearing the obnoxious voice of the tank, Zhang Junyi turned around to destroy the tank toy. He smacked it with the wand.

Yet, the toy was undamaged!

Click

Instead, he accidentally activated its ability as he had gotten too close!

BOOM!

The tank generated another golden fire explosion. This time, a hundred small shrapnel, generated from the toy tank, punctured through Zhang Junyi's muscular body. As if he had been shot by a hundred bullets, several pieces of his organs, including his liver, lungs, and intestine got several holes in them.

Zhang Junyi was in shock. He was confident in his physique and his natural element Qi defense. Yet, this strange thing put him in a miserable state.

Still, as an experienced fighter, he popped a high-grade healing pill into his mouth and flew away from the blast radius, observing the odd flying toy that had self-detonated.

Zhang Junyi was surprised yet again. The tank flew out of the smoke and chased after him.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

His face distorted, "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?"

Zhang Junyi flew away from the tank. Yet, it kept following him around like a homing missile.

"TSK!"

Since the tank was dangerous, Zhang Junyi chose not to get close to the toy. He turned to Cao Mao.

Since killing the ability user was the only way out of this mess, Zhang Junyi had aimed to detonate Cao Mao's lightning Qi and finish him off once and for all.

Meanwhile, Cao Mao was also in a miserable state. Everything inside him had been burnt black, and he could barely move. Even though it was not a fatal injury, he would need several weeks to recover.

However, just a few moments ago, Cao Mao had just acquired an important piece of information about the gold element from Killer Queen's memory.

Gold Element Qi could give a boost to his basic element power, temporarily turning them into advanced elements upon usage. Cao Mao could also detonate his opponent's Qi if they had the same basic element Qi in their dantian.

He still had a chance!

While Cao Mao had been sorting his options, Zhang Junyi closed the distance within the blink of an eye while drawing the toy tank closer to Cao Mao. The former believed that the blast radius would also affect him, so the latter shouldn't dare activate the skill at a close range.

The tranny also gathered his plasma element and locked on to Cao Mao's dantian, aiming to detonate the Qi from the inside.

Cao Mao also focused on Zhang Junyi's dantian, locking on the latter's fire element Qi. He, too, had planned to detonate them!

"MAO MIAOMIAO, DIE!!"

As Zhang Junyi had a superior cultivation base and had merged with his nascent soul, his Qi activation was faster. He activated his advanced element Qi first.

As soon as the remote detonation had been activated, Cao Mao sensed the boiling lightning Qi going haywire. They condensed together and expanded, which would explode and destroy everything in his dantian.

Still, Cao Mao's brain was under the buff of a wet banana. He came up with a solution instantly.

"KILLER QUEEN!! TAKE ALL MY LIGHTNING QI!!"

[Oh! How generous. Well, bon appetit!]

The gold katana, which had been in Cao Mao's hand, suddenly slipped out of his grasp. Then, it turned its blade around and stabbed his stomach!

The lightning element Qi, which was about to explode, was instantly devoured by the glutton weapon. Fortunately, she only took the rampaging lightning Qi, not his life essence or other element Qi.

Without enough energy, the lightning Qi couldn't explode.

Once the crisis had been averted, it was Cao Mao's turn. Since Zhang Junyi was so kind that he got into Cao Mao's range, he circulated his fire element Qi into his blood vessels, absorbing the golden blood.

After the fire element Qi had absorbed the gold blood, they temporarily had the characteristic of an advanced element.

Once it became an advanced element, Cao Mao temporarily gained authority over the fire element Qi. He commanded the fire element Qi in Zhang Junyi's dantian to self-destruct.

Zhang Junyi's fire element Qi, which had always been used for his alchemy, began to swell. The fire element core in his yang essence sea went out of control and rapidly expanded.

Sensing the crisis, Zhang Junyi flashed, blinking, and got in front of Cao Mao.

If Cao Mao were to die, the detonation wouldn't happen. Therefore, Zhang Junyi decided to kill the former as soon as possible.

"DIE!!"

Zhang Junyi swung his wand, which had been enhanced with his plasma element.

CLANK!

The wand met with an ice element shield. Extending from Cao Mao's face, a semi-transparent hand pointed at Zhang Junyi's face.

Cao Mao had summoned White Album to the battle!

'About time, handsome master.'

White Album giggled as she manifested and overlapped with Cao Mao's body.

'Your golden blood is quite useful. it's easier to convert your life essence into ice element now.'

Cao Mao didn't refute. As he couldn't control his body anymore due to his injuries, he continued to fall to earth.

White Album also followed Cao Mao, descending toward the ground.

As for Zhang Junyi, he was absorbed in controlling his berserking fire element Qi. Also, he was astonished by the appearance of the clone of Xu Xiuying. The ice element shield just now had revealed that the new opponent's strength was at least a core pillar realm.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

Zhang Junyi didn't even have enough time to pacify his fire Qi. KQ's second ability, the chasing tank, had reached him again. Moreover, it had been right in front of his head. When the former had turned to look, the skull face of the toy tank had been glaring at him.

CLICK

BOOM!

The explosion devoured the face of Zhang Junyi. The same shrapnel penetrated his face, mouth, nose, and eyes.

Unfortunately, Zhang Junyi had managed to protect his vital part, the skull, and his brain. The shrapnel failed to crack his skull or reach his soft brain.

Still, the golden fire melted the skin of his face and his hair, revealing the muscle tissues, his skull, and his teeth.

Now, Zhang Junyi's face turned into a certain Titan in a famous anime.

"AHHHHHH!!"

As the shrapnel got Zhang Junyi's eyes, the latter screamed in pain. His transformation was also undone, and his nascent soul was ejected from his body.

BOOM!

Because of the distraction, Zhang Junyi lost focus of his dantian and his fire Qi. The fire element Qi in his dantian detonated, destroying an essence sea!

The body of Zhang Junyi suddenly leaked Qi and yang essence. All of his hard work had been destroyed!

As Zhang Junyi's body suddenly lost his cultivation base, the soul nascent soul of Zhang Junyi seized his physical body's arm and dragged him away from here, retreating from the battle.

Moreover, he was not in a state to continue fighting.

"LOOK OVER HERE!"

Yet, the toy tank kept chasing Zhang Junyi.

The queer's nascent soul also got annoyed. He ignored the tank and kept dragging his real body away, fleeing from the battle as quickly as possible.

He needed to recuperate and heal his dantian. Moreover, he was wary that someone might try to ambush him while he had been injured.

Suddenly, Zhang Junyi's body became heavy. The nascent soul couldn't move.

Confused, the soul merged with his body again.

Zhang Junyi regained his senses. He scanned himself and his surroundings with the last few strands of Qi from his broken dantian, checking why his body suddenly felt heavier than usual.

He felt like he weighed over a ton!

Within a few seconds, Zhang Junyi discovered the source.

On the ground, a weakened giant bat had been looking at him with a sneer. Fu De's feet had been standing on top of Zhang Junyi's expanded shadow, which had been caused by the tribulation lightning in the sky.

Zhang Junyi hadn't realized that Fu De had been hiding nearby. The vampire had used a skill, and it was the skill that Cao Mao had learned during his early days.

Shadow Restrain!

"FU DE!!"

Zhang Junyi didn't know what Fu De had used, but he had guessed that the latter had done something to him.

A few seconds of restraint was enough for the tank toy to catch up with Zhang Junyi. It circled around him as if it was alive. Then, it clashed into Zhang Junyi's teeth, digging into his mouth.

Zhang Junyi had no skin or lips at the moment. Moreover, he didn't have enough Qi to form an energy shield to protect himself!

The hard shell of the tank broke his teeth.

Then, the tank had managed to get inside Zhang Junyi's mouth!

"Karma's a bitch, right? DIE, YOU SISSY!"

Fu De laughed. He had been observing how Cao Mao had fought, and he liked it. Even though he had failed to catch Cao Mao, he was satisfied with getting his revenge.

Click!

BOOM!

Zhang Junyi's head shattered to pieces. His headless body slowly fell to the ground.

Yet, his nascent soul was still alive. Zhang Junyi's soul glared at Fu De in rage.

He wanted to yell and curse the vampire for getting in the way. However, he could no longer speak.

Moreover, a soul without a body would either get captured by the Eyes of Heaven. He needed to get a new body.

Zhang Junyi fled toward Xuan City, where the battle had still been raging, hoping to find a suitable body to possess.

Yet, Fu De pursued Zhang Junyi. The former turned into smoke and flew after the semi-transparent soul.

"WHERE ARE YOU GOING, DAMN SISSY!? COME BACK HERE!"

…

Cao Mao had been laying on the beach, a few meters away from the Blood Sea. He looked at the tribulation cloud and several Eyes of Heaven, which gazed back at him.

He no longer paid attention to Zhang Junyi or Fu De as the crisis had been averted. Yet, he had to overcome another ordeal.

These heavenly eyes surely wanted him dead, but Cao Mao was no longer in a condition to go through another trial.

[Yuan Hua is dissatisfied that you have destroyed Zhang Junyi's physical body.]

"Bitch! Your vessel almost killed me! You should be thankful that he's still alive!"

[Yuan Hua believes that you should have just pretended to surrender while she was negotiating with the planet's guardians to intervene with the mortal's affair.]

"Nope! I've had enough becoming someone's underling. To be honest, now, I'm kind of understand why those idiot protagonists never wanted to stay in one place. I've earned my freedom, dammit!"

[Yuan Hua is pissed. She demands compensation for Zhang Junyi's injuries.]

Cao Mao clicked his tongue as everything wasn't his fault. It was because of Zhang Junyi and Fu De, who had tried to rob and abduct him to their sect.

"Bitch, you can just fuck off! Yo, my nameless system sponsor! I don't want to see or hear this bitch's messages. Can you boot, ban, or remove her from your … whatever YouTube channel!?"

[Yuan Hua has enough. She has excommunicated you.]

[All wet bananas in your possession have been confiscated by the system via Yuan Hua's request.]

Ding

[Warning, Yuan Hua has become hostile against you!]

[Your Sponsor has removed Yuan Hua from the channel. She can no longer spy on your activities.]

[Due to your hostile relationship with Yuan Hua's clan and your recent deeds, your alignment has greatly shifted closer to [Chaotic Good]'s side.]
