"You little thief, prepare to die!"
Wan Jin immediately unleashed the Divine Martial Hammer, a massive arm, seemingly cast from refined iron, slamming down towards Jiang Yuan.
"The strongest ninth-order power system!" Jiang Yuan's eyes blazed with fighting spirit. Nine hundred and ninety-nine points of energy was already the limit of the ninth order, and to go higher would only be to break through the limit to the super ninth order!
Before the battlefield is fully open, the emergence of those above the ninth rank is no easy feat; this is a realm only possessed by terrifying beings like the Holy Spirit who never leave their mountain strongholds.
"Then let's fight!"
Jiang Yuan abandoned his spear. Wan Jin was unaware that in Shadow Slaughter state, Jiang Yuan was immune to most physical damage, and Wan Jin's Divine Martial Holy Hammer was also immune to it. However, he could take this opportunity to experience the power of the strongest ninth-tier weapon.
"die!"
Wan Jin attacked Jiang Yuan, who met the punch head-on without dodging.
Even though he was immune to physical attacks, Jiang Yuan still felt the soul-shaking impact when their fists touched.
The energy fluctuations within the Divine Martial Hammer ceased only after reaching the seventh layer, through multiple layers.
"Impossible, how could you be completely unharmed?" Wan Jin was filled with disbelief; he had never encountered such a situation before.
"I took your punch, now it's your turn to take mine!"
Jiang Yuan stopped abruptly. The duration of Shadow Slaughter was running out, and he needed to make the most of the last bit of time.
"Hmph, with your level eight strength, even if I stood there and let you hit me, you probably wouldn't be able to budge me an inch!" Wan Jin said disdainfully.
"Triple shackles, break!"
Jiang Yuan broke free of the triple shackles of flesh, blood, and bones, and his ancient martial arts power was completely released. At that moment, his self-healing potential reached the fourth stage, which is the level of self-healing restraint. This means that his physical body and self-healing potential have completed their first true fusion.
"A Tai Chi punch with double the attack, get ready!"
Jiang Yuan threw a punch imbued with a strong ancient aura, aiming directly at Wan Jin's face.
Boom! The fist landed, and Wan Jin staggered back three steps. Although he retreated, he did not suffer any serious injuries.
"To be honest, it's not very good!" Wan Jin wiped the blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"I didn't expect to find a kindred spirit. This physical body is quite impressive!" Jiang Yuan withdrew his fist. The other party had also cultivated body-tempering techniques like him, and obviously had considerable attainments in physical cultivation.
"To be honest, you have angered me. Today, you will die!"
Wan Jin threw another punch, but it was still immune to the Shadow Killer's talent. He refused to believe it and tried again, but the result was still the same.
"Are you a sore loser?! Can't you act like a man and fight me fair and square?" Wan Jin shouted angrily after missing several shots.
Jiang Yuan smiled coldly; his Shadow Slaughter was just about to begin.
"As you wish!"
Jiang Yuan unfurled his wings of light, looking arrogantly down at the two people behind Wan Jin: "But the three of you might not even be qualified to play with me!"
"What do you mean? An eighth-rank cultivator looks down on me, a peak ninth-rank cultivator!" Wan Jin had never been so contemptuous. This was not contempt; it was utter arrogance.
"No, no, no, I think you've misunderstood!" Jiang Yuan waved his hand, then said arrogantly, "I not only look down on you, a ninth-level cultivator, but also on those you brought with you!"
Wan Jin was furious. Tai Shicheng behind him remained silent. He suddenly realized whether joining the Holy Spirit Clan was the right choice.
"Let's fight on the lake. We can't let all the men you've prepared for me go to waste!" Jiang Yuan picked up Liu Zhaodi and flew outside.
"Damn, it's always me, Wan Jin, who's always showing off!"
Wan Jin was so angry he wanted to kill him, but Jiang Yuan grabbed him and ran away, so he didn't have time to continue cursing and could only hurry after him.
However, he was not worried that Jiang Yuan would escape. The entire lake was under his control, and even if Jiang Yuan had wings, he could not escape this inescapable net.
"Liu Zhaodi, if you leave here, go back to Nancheng immediately. Tonight's beast tide could very well affect the safety of Nancheng!"
Jiang Yuan took Liu Zhaodi away only to let her go back. The Holy Spirit's control over the beast tide is absolute. Now that Wan Jin has appeared, the beast tide may break out at any time.
"And what about you?" Liu Zhaodi asked, puzzled.
“Two people can’t walk together, the other side has at least seven or eight ninth-level opponents! So, I’m staying.” Jiang Yuan spoke calmly, as if staying was just an ordinary thing.
However, not only Liu Zhaodi knew this was dangerous, but Jiang Yuan himself also knew that staying would likely result in him being killed by the other side.
"Take this!" Jiang Yuan tossed the Holy Spirit Source over. "Don't keep it all to yourself, this is something I'm taking back to the camp to use as a villa!"
"Still so greedy even in the face of disaster!" Liu Zhaodi said coquettishly.
"This isn't greed, it's thrift. I went through a lot of trouble to get it back, wouldn't it be a waste not to cherish it?" Jiang Yuan corrected.
"Then promise me you'll come back!" Liu Zhaodi touched his face.
"Big sister, we're running for our lives, do you think this is some kind of idol drama!" Jiang Yuan shook off Liu Zhaodi's hand and said, "Qingmo and the others are waiting for you at Tianlan Huating. Go and meet them, they'll protect you on your way back!"
"But!"
"We're here. I'll put you down here. You can use your spiritual power to wade across!" Jiang Yuan didn't give Liu Zhaodi any time to prepare. He quickly dropped her off and turned back. He had to restrain the others, otherwise even one person could stop Liu Zhaodi.
He let Liu Zhaodi leave because he was afraid something might happen to her. The probability of his death was very low, but Liu Zhaodi's was another matter. In this kind of chaotic battle, there were times when he would be entangled and unable to escape to rescue her. If something really happened to Liu Zhaodi, he would feel guilty.
