Chapter 269 - 122: One Slash!
The next moment.
The Yin Yang Five Elements Great Cutting pierced through Bai Yan, furiously slicing him apart.
At the same time.
Countless wounds also appeared on Wang Chang, who was still trapped by the Giant Mountain Shield, and as the wounds opened, his aura continued to decline.
Meanwhile, the equipment on his body began to radiate light, flowing into Wang Chang, continuously healing his wounds.
"Linking damage? Let’s see how you link it!!"
The Empress snorted coldly. In the Divine State, she had no cooldown and no cost, instantly unleashing three more Yin Yang Five Elements Great Cuttings.
Like the hooks of Life-taking Yama, they aimed straight for Bai Yan’s life.
"This is bad!"
Li Xingyun exclaimed daintily, and a puppet shaped like a bomb appeared around her.
Like a balloon inflated to the extreme, it suddenly expanded.
Then it exploded instantly.
"Boom!!"
A shockwave rippled outwards with an irresistible force, forcibly pushing Xue Hansong to retreat.
At the same time, Li Xingyun instantly appeared in front of Bai Yansong.
A puppet appeared again, but this time it had the face of Xue Hansong.
As if she had already known the skill’s characteristics, the Empress pinched something afterward, dispersing the three Yin Yang Five Elements Great Cuttings.
And at this moment
Bai Yan, who had snapped back from the overwhelming pain and information attack, was extremely pale.
"What kind of trick is this!"
His head was on the verge of exploding, bombarded by the ceaseless onslaught of voices.
The boundless information seemed as if it would burst his head wide open.
If it weren’t for his naturally quick information processing...
His body might have already exploded from within.
"Dang, dang, dang—!"
The only response to Bai Yan was the piercing sound of a zither, forcibly immobilizing them in place.
And then a scream rang out, changing Li Xingyun’s expression.
She realized that Xue Hansong, whom she had just knocked back, was already beside Wang Chang.
The flash of a blade passed by.
Wang Chang’s body was severed in half at the waist.
Blood spurted out fiercely.
And immediately a strong golden light erupted around Wang Chang, encompassing him in the shadow of a gigantic Buddha statue.
The Giant Mountain Shield that had confined him for so long was shattered by the statue’s explosive force from within.
Allowing the now halved Wang Chang to escape the scene.
Yet his expression was no better; it was in fact very grim.
Because this was one of his trump cards, the ’Amitabha Buddha Statue,’ capable of substituting death and releasing all control effects.
But the cooldown time of this skill is extremely long, usable only once per battle.
Seeing his skill broken, Luoo Rushan wasted no time, and his steps erupted in the air, causing the air to tremble like thunder, compressing and bursting under immense power.
’Boom, boom—!’
"Boom, boom—!"
"Trying to escape?"
Luoo Rushan rammed directly at Wang Chang, whose newly healed muscle transformed into a massive man, golden light flowing over his body.
Like a Buddha forged in gold.
Facing Luoo Rushan’s shield, he was forced to throw a punch, disturbing the air, instantly firing an air cannon.
"Vajra Demon Suppression!"
The Buddha statue behind also threw a punch.
Fist met shield.
The shield didn’t budge, while Wang Chang seemed to suffer a severe blow.
Repelled by the shockwave power, he staggered in mid-air, trailing afterimages.
Xue Hansong followed closely with a hefty swing of a blade, aiming for Wang Chang’s neck.
"Li Xingyun!"
Feeling the blade scraping his skin, Wang Chang’s expression drastically changed as he kept retreating wildly.
Yet the blade aura pursued ceaselessly, heading straight for Wang Chang’s neck.
Having just been counter-shocked into a ’rigid’ state, Wang Chang could only shout out.
Having just saved Bai Yan, Li Xingyun gritted her teeth.
’Escape Puppet!’
A puppet was left in place, while Li Xingyun, as if greatly empowered, moved at lightning speed to face Wang Chang.
Another bomb puppet appeared in front of her, exploding importantly, again knocking Xue Hansong back.
Her heart bled as these ’Bomb Puppets’ were her lifesaving devices, and she only had two.
Once they explode, an unavoidable ’repel’ effect takes place, invulnerable even with the ’Overlord Body.’
For assassins like her, the biggest taboo is having enemies come close; it was meant to secure her life.
But to save Bai Yan and Wang Chang, she exhausted them.
Meanwhile.
Luoo Rushan continued his pursuit, and Wang Chang bit his teeth, growling, "Golden Body Buddha!"
Golden light condensed around him, forming a golden statue shielding him completely.
’Bang!’
Luoo Rushan collided directly with Wang Chang, a force akin to a giant mountain Charge, knocking Wang Chang into the air, trailing behind afterimages.
At this moment.
Xue Hansong executed ’Triple Beheading,’ targeting Li Xingyun’s neck directly.
Li Xingyun had already exhausted her lifesaving resources.
’Shock Explosion Puppet,’ ’Injury-Swapping Puppet’ had all been used.
If the blade cuts into her again, she would lose her three lives.
Li Xingyun forcibly twisted her body, trying to avoid a fatal strike to her vitals.
So long as she didn’t die, her Immunity from Death wouldn’t be expended.
’Pshhh~!’
The blade aura slashed through Li Xingyun’s lower body, shattering it, blood and blade light dancing together.
Although Li Xingyun’s head surged with excruciating pain, she felt fortunate for dodging the strike.
At that moment.
A cold flash streaked between heaven and earth.
Garuda sensed it, his face drastically changing.
Yet he found himself unable to do anything, unable to even speak.
Wang Chang had just been knocked away by Luoo Rushan, unable to rush for aid.
Bai Yan was still being disrupted by endless information, having just sensed it and wishing to help.
But three Yin Yang Five Elements Permanently Solid Great Barriers from the Empress descended onto him, halting his steps.
Leaving him to only watch helplessly as the sword aura headed straight for Li Xingyun.
"Watch out!"
Bai Yan could only shout this one phrase!
Just having been bisected, Li Xingyun realized and wanted to retreat.
Only to find that half of her body was missing.
She couldn’t dodge in time even if she wanted to.
Her lifesaving methods were completely expended.
Li Xingyun merely felt a sword aura sharper than Xue Hansong’s beheading aimed directly at her neck.
"Save me!"
Li Xingyun shouted, but none of her three companions could aid her.
Everyone could only watch as a brilliant sword aura filled her body.
Wang Chang, who hadn’t even had time to recover, was already in a bad state.
Moreover, the Stabbing Immortal’s action couldn’t have been more timely, a strike accumulated over tens of days.
Its Sword Qi soared to the sky, dropping Li Hansong’s state below 30%.
[Heaven-Slaying Sword] triggered!
A power of annihilation furiously obliterating Li Hansong’s life force, breaking the ’Substitute Death Puppet’ inside as well.
Li Hansong felt terror and ferocity, knowing his ’Substitute Death Puppet’ had all failed.
Shouting: "Save..."
Before he could finish, he turned to ash before everyone.
In an instant.
The world fell silent.
