A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 150 - 122: Seriously Injured

"Damn it! Damn it!" Feng Jun cursed in his heart. From the time the encirclement formed until now, several dozen breaths had passed, and even though the leader and Yinn Hongbo hadn’t arrived yet, it was still tolerable. But how could Huangfu Zhuqing and Zhuang Qing have been in the array for over twenty breaths without breaking it and killing Lu Qian!

He is just a mere late-stage Qi Cultivation practitioner! Even if he is an array cultivator, in this desolate mountain without a spirit vein to rely on, how could he possibly hold off two Foundation Establishments?

Huangfu Zhuqing and Zhuang Qing, you useless fools, useless!

Right now, preserving his life was paramount. Feng Jun called back the spirit sword that had been knocked away, dumped the few remaining disciples, transformed into escape light, and turned to flee.

If I leave, this female cultivator will definitely go to save Lu Qian. Huangfu Zhuqing, Zhuang Qing, you two better fend for yourselves and pray for good luck.

Just as this thought flashed through his mind and the escape light started, there was an explosive sound behind him, and a blast wave roared. Feng Jun turned around in fright to see white flames flash and Gu Nishniang suddenly appear before him, her figure rotating, a palm striking out, and a vortex of flames snapping down on him!

"Trying to run?"

"Are you crazy!" Feng Jun couldn’t help but curse, "Your sect leader is in grave danger, and yet you’re not going to save them!"

Luckily, the Shahe Gang had made a fortune in recent years, and as the secondary leader who joined early, his wealth was far greater than that of Huangfu Zhuqing. Besides his cherished high-tier spiritual artifact, the Sun and Moon Dual Wheels, he had a mid-tier spiritual artifact, a flying sword, and from his embrace, he shot out a jade green ring, which was a mid-tier defensive spiritual artifact.

As the jade ring appeared, waves surged, and heavy waterwaves suddenly arose, rolling and surging to shield Feng Jun. The vortex of flames collided with the waterwaves, making a sizzling sound, and large amounts of mist billowed upwards, filling the sky like clouds.

In the next instant, the Golden Crow screeched piercingly, and Gu Niqshang’s figure shot out from the mist like lightning, delivering a heavy punch right at him!

"Lu Qian said thirty breaths. If he can’t hold on, I’ll kill you all to avenge him!"

On the mountain below, within the Five Elements Grand Array, having blocked the Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword, Huangfu Zhuqing just took a breath of relief when the air in front of him twisted and coiled with spiritual power. Suddenly, a sharp buzzing sounded, and a group of strange black lightning condensed, swelling to the size of a human head in the blink of an eye, striking towards Huangfu Zhuqing.

Black lightning threads drifted around, and the terrifying tearing and devouring power contained within made Huangfu Zhuqing’s face change instantly.

This strike seemed slow but was actually urgent, perfectly bridging the gap after the Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword under Lu Qian’s control of the "Lake" character formula. At this moment, the thick bamboo shadows in the Bamboo Sea Cloud-Piercing Fan had just been broken through. Even with Huangfu Zhuqing’s frantic urging, the Bamboo Sea had only half appeared when the Gui Water Divine Thunder came striking through the air!

As the Gui Water Divine Thunder was released, Lu Qian’s face turned pale, his divine sense almost exhausted. He activated the array map again, using the Golden Waterfall Needle recorded within to attack Zhuang Qing, to delay him slightly.

He needed to hold on for another ten breaths. If he solely defended, the two Foundation Establishments could break through the Heavenly Torrent Spiritual Mist immediately. If attacked, his divine sense wouldn’t be enough to endure. If he used the Earthly Branch Xin Metal Divine Lock to restrain them, it simply couldn’t trap two Foundation Establishments.

The only choice was to attack instead of defend. Although he chose the wrong target initially, he could only follow this path to the end!

The black lightning exploded, and the bamboo shadows instantly shattered, tearing apart the half-formed Bamboo Sea like rotting wood.

The smaller Yin Thunder approached him, and Huangfu Zhuqing’s hair stood on end, his muscles and bones trembling.

He could only activate the Dao pattern, adding a layer of protection to his high-tier spirit sword. Then, with a loud shout, he brought out a series of illusionary flying swords to slash at the Gui Water Divine Thunder.

At this moment, Zhuang Qing broke free from the entangling Golden Waterfall Needle, pointed his brush, and the Dao pattern vibrated. Spiritual power flowed continuously around him, and a talisman was instantly formed.

This talisman was only palm-sized, but its aura was astonishing and quite mysterious. With a flash of gray-white light, the talisman jumped directly into the Gui Water Divine Thunder.

"Annihilation!"

This was Zhuang Qing’s exclusive talismanic technique, the Annihilation Talisman. It consumed a lot of spiritual power but was incredibly fast and formidable, capable of erasing various attacks and defenses, always showing remarkable performance in battle.

With a sudden attack, there was a crisp cracking sound, and the Gui Water Divine Thunder shattered, dissipating more than half of it!

In the next moment, Huangfu Zhuqing’s spirit sword slashed heavily on the remaining small lump of Gui Water Divine Thunder.

The black lightning burst instantly! Amid the deep buzzing sound, Huangfu Zhuqing screamed, his spirit sword engulfed in lightning and flung away.

Blood oozed from his nose and mouth, black lightning flickered over his body like threads, and he staggered back several steps, hair standing on end. Most severe was the long, narrow wound on his chest, originally inflicted by Gu Niginshang’s hand blade, now ripped open as lightning dug in eagerly.

A large spurt of fresh blood sprayed out, instantly staining his chest red.

"Little beast, I swear to kill you!"

Hearing this furious curse, Zhuang Qing let out a sigh of relief. Though Huangfu Zhuqing had overlapping new and old injuries, he wasn’t critically wounded yet.

Zhuang Qing clearly felt that the spiritual qi within the grand array was rapidly depleting; Lu Qian couldn’t hold on much longer.

At this moment, there were only five breaths left.

Gu Nishang’s heavy punch, like a mountain or a peak, wrapped in raging white flames, crashed onto the Jade Ring Water Waves with a boom, severing the torrents instantly, the waves shattering!

With a creak, a clear crack appeared on the jade ring.

Feng Jun, terrified, waved his hand, releasing several wood talismans. The Dao pattern was activated, and the various attacks within the talismans combined with the flying swords, radiating light, slashing towards Gu Nishang.
