Chapter 505 - 13: Great Black Heaven (Part 3)
"My lord," Shangguan Duo’s face turned pale:
"He’s stalling for time!"
The longer it drags on, the more mana he loses within, the weaker his resistance becomes, and the stronger the power of the array.
A trade-off.
Unable to resist any longer.
"I know."
Fang Zheng’s eyes flickered, and with a flash, he appeared in front of Shi Bumi, slashing diagonally down with one hand like a saber.
"Pa!"
Shi Bumi raised his hand, spreading his fingers to intercept the strike.
However, he evidently underestimated Fang Zheng’s strength; in the collision, his arm shattered like rotten wood.
"Crack!"
The ghastly white bone pierced through the flesh, entering view.
Shi Bumi kept retreating, yet his face showed no signs of pain, as if the body wasn’t his.
Indeed,
This body was not his.
Instead, he looked jubilant:
"Good!"
"Such a strong physique, I should have refined Yuan Hui long ago, all the way avoiding this and that."
"With you..."
Shi Bumi let out a mad roar and charged:
"I will definitely break through the realm!"
He had long had enough of Yuan Hui, and now with a better option, naturally, he was willing to risk everything to seize it.
A demon is a demon after all, greed beyond control, even at the cost of betting everything.
Perhaps...
It didn’t think it would lose.
"Hmph!"
Fang Zheng snorted coldly, his body rushed, chopping, drilling, collapsing... consecutive punches landed on the opponent’s body.
"Thud!"
Shi Bumi’s body was almost vulnerable before him, collapsing to the ground like a pile of rotten flesh.
Yet his face still bore no pain, with a series of strange laughs:
"You can knock down one, can you take down ten? A hundred? Sooner or later, you’ll exhaust your strength!"
"Bang!"
Before he finished, the ground suddenly cracked open, and six figures burst from underground, lunging towards Fang Zheng.
These people’s speed was astonishing, though not impeccable, they were close.
Without exception.
The expressions were as bizarre as Shi Bumi’s, clearly controlled by something.
"Hmph!"
Fang Zheng snorted coldly, waved one hand, and streaks of thunder light transformed into Thunder Saber, slashing towards the oncoming figures.
"Boom!"
Thunder exploded.
Six figures simultaneously retreated.
Even Shangguan Duo saw that the Thunder Blade Aura unleashed by Fang Zheng this time was greatly reduced in power.
It wasn’t that the blade aura weakened, but an invisible devouring force, consuming everything in the field.
The Thunder Saber, upon its appearance, was entangled by that force and swiftly refined, naturally weakening by the time of explosion.
Fang Zheng’s eyes also sank slightly.
He gently raised his arm, looking at the slightly erected hairs, his expression cold.
The Celestial Spirit Technique made his physique integrated, hardly allowing any leakage of essence.
Yet now.
He could actually feel the essence leaking.
Minute streams of air indistinguishable to the naked eye slowly seeped through the pores, slowly consuming his strength, albeit slowly.
"Gagaga..."
Shi Bumi laughed strangely:
"Though I don’t know what Dharma Gate you practice, it absolutely cannot resist the refinement of the Great Black Heaven Embryo Array."
"Your strength diminishes, the power of the array increases, over time, you will surely lose!"
"Oh, really?" Fang Zheng spoke:
"You think the changes here could escape notice from the people down the mountain, military array hard to ascend, but not impossible."
"It’s not a problem for Fang if there’s no movement for a moment, but over time, they will realize something’s amiss."
"When the military array ascends the mountain..."
"You will surely die!"
’Shi Bumi’s’ eyes flickered, his face changed, knowing Fang Zheng’s words were true.
Now,
It’s about who can last the longer.
"Swish!"
Shangguan Duo retreated a step, sat cross-legged in a flat spot, suddenly flicked out Spirit Talismans.
Instantly.
Spirit Talismans formed a simple array, encasing him within.
Once the array formed, it became self-circulating, his Qi Blood Magical Power still leaked, but much slower.
Fang Zheng didn’t need such hassle, as being impeccable, physique flawlessly integrated, essence non-leakage.
Now, operating the Celestial Spirit Technique, it was like a closed turtle shell, even a full operation of the Fetal Storage Array could only slightly devour his leaking essence qi.
At this rate,
Forget about quick refinement, even after a day and night, Fang Zheng might still be energetic, unmoved.
"Well?"
Fang Zheng’s eyes were calm:
"Time and circumstances are on my side, today you shall surely lose, a demon remains a demon, not understanding time or circumstances."
"Arrogant!"
Shi Bumi’s face darkened:
"You think you can stay unmoved?"
"Come out!"
"Clatter..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when corpses emerged from the ruins, many being novices and martial monks from Cien Temple.
After their deaths, they were buried underground, the recent craftsmen’s busyness was to cover the bodies.
Yet now.
They were all summoned out.
"Go!"
"Swish!"
"Swish swish!"
These novices and martial monks were controlled by invisible power, each with astonishing speed, fearless of pain.
In terms of power,
Comparable to a martial artist.
Shangguan Duo’s face changed dramatically.
He exerted every effort yet couldn’t stop the essence qi from escaping, now even moving a bit made him weaker.
Not moving?
Would mean death!
"Damn it!"
Even with years of Daoist practice, stable temperament, he couldn’t help but curse:
"Fight for it!"
He swung his long sleeves, dozens of golden needles flashed out like a streak of golden light, piercing the approaching figures.
Compared to Shangguan Duo, Fang Zheng was much more at ease.
Standing in the field, facing the incoming assaults, his expression unchanged, not using True Qi, only fists and kicks.
Not using True Qi equates to reduced consumption.
As for the power...
His strength was astonishing, even stone could be shattered with a casual slap, opponents were no match.
In the blink of an eye.
A pile of bodies with twisted joints lay at his feet.
