That day, Rong Zi used herself as bait and successfully lured a lone fallen immortal to a place she had prepared in advance.
Holding Xiu'er in her hand, her spiritual energy surging around her, she stood facing the other party with neither arrogance nor servility.
That fallen immortal only had eyes for Rong Zi, this Tang Monk's flesh.
Before Rong Zi could even shout "start," he had already charged forward aggressively.
Seeing this, Rong Zi swung Xiu'er around, grabbed a boulder, and channeled his spiritual power into it, hurling it fiercely at the other party.
Her strike could easily smash an ordinary mountain peak.
But the fallen immortal simply waved his hand, shattering the boulder into dust.
Without any pause, the Fallen Immortal continued to attack Rong Zi, each move aimed straight for vital points.
A year of speed training is still useful.
Compared to a year ago, Rong Zi is now faster. Although he hasn't found an opportunity to retaliate yet, he can at least temporarily cope with the Fallen Immortal's fierce attacks and barely dodge his deadly blows time and time again.
This fallen immortal had no weapon in his hand, only a pair of sharp, long fingernails like those of a wild beast.
Even so, Rong Zi still couldn't gain any advantage from him.
Her defenses were suddenly breached, and although she dodged quickly enough, a long gash was still cut on her arm by the opponent's fingernails.
However, this also allowed Rong Zi to finally find a flaw.
She flung Xiu'er to the ground, and with the force of the blow, a crack a full ten feet wide instantly appeared in the ground. Rong Zi used the force to rise up and rushed to the top of the fallen immortal's head, shouting loudly.
"noob!"
The moment her voice rang out, Xiao Bai, who had transformed into a longsword, appeared in her hand.
Rong Zi gripped the sword hilt, channeled spiritual energy into the blade, and then cast a spell to fiercely stab the fallen immortal below.
With a 'thud' sound of flesh being pierced, Xiao Bai's sharp blade sank into the Fallen Immortal's shoulder.
The Fallen Immortal roared in pain, his palm, brimming with immense energy, aimed straight at Rong Zi's chest.
Upon seeing this, Cai Niu and Jun Moyao, who were watching from the sidelines, shouted out at the same time.
"Master, be careful!"
"careful!"
Rong Zi tried to dodge, but the other person's movements were too fast.
Therefore, she took the blow squarely.
Rong Zi felt a sharp pain in her chest.
Immediately afterwards, her body shot out like a cannonball, crashing heavily into a rocky mountain not far away.
It pierced through the mountain.
"puff……"
Lying amidst rubble, Rong Zi, disheveled and covered in dirt, clutched her chest with one hand, ripped off her gas mask, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Blood flowed down her chin and neck from the corner of her mouth.
Rong Zi struggled to breathe, his chest aching terribly. He gritted his teeth and muttered, "Cough cough... Good heavens, that was a really vicious slap..."
"Owner……"
Cai Niu rushed over in a panic.
Its turtle face was also wearing a gas mask, which almost covered its entire head, making it look somewhat comical.
Seeing this, Rong Zi raised his hand to stop him, saying, "Don't come any closer!"
She took out several healing pills and threw them all into her mouth as if they were free. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and struggled to her feet from the rubble, supporting herself on her arms.
"I'm fine."
Fighting with immortals is a completely different experience.
Despite her impaired mind, the battle with him only served to further ignite her fighting spirit and combat prowess.
Moreover, if she guessed correctly, this fallen immortal should have an earth elemental root.
Thinking of this, Rong Zi put the gas mask back on and squinted at the direction of the Fallen Immortal.
Her sword strike had nearly crippled one of the Fallen Immortal's arms, so much so that he was still clutching his wound and howling in pain, with blood flowing all over the ground.
Seeing Rong Zi stand up, the Fallen Immortal, whether from pain or anger, stared at Rong Zi's face with murderous intent.
"I'll kill you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and cast a spell, which miraculously lifted a mountain from thin air and smashed it towards Rong Zi.
Rong Zi was startled and barely managed to avoid the attack by using teleportation.
The entire mountain just crashed down like that; you can imagine how huge the impact would be.
Amidst the earth-shaking tremors, a massive mushroom cloud of rock fragments and dust filled the sky, creating a truly spectacular scene.
Rong Zi clutched her chest, still shaken, and exclaimed in shock, "This...this is the strength of an Earth Spirit Root in the Immortal Realm?"
How terrifying...
Rong Zi was still in shock when the ground beneath her feet suddenly came to life and began to shake violently.
The next instant, a blade of clay and stones shot out from beneath her.
If Rong Zi had dodged even a fraction of a second slower, the soles of his feet would have been pierced.
You can hide from one, but you can't hide from a whole bunch.
Hundreds and thousands of earthen blades emerged from the ground one after another. Despite Rong Zi's quick reaction, his legs were still cut in several places.
The best way to deal with cultivators with earth-elemental roots is to stay away from the ground.
Rong Zi rode on Little White and ascended into the air on his sword.
Learning from the Fallen Immortal's moves, she also began to use the characteristics of the Earth Spirit Root, controlling the ground beneath the Fallen Immortal's feet, and started her counterattack.
As the ground shook, countless stones and rocks rose into the air, forming a sturdy stone net that trapped the fallen immortal within.
With Rong Zi's strength, this stone net can at most only temporarily trap the Fallen Immortal for three seconds.
But three seconds is enough.
As the Fallen Immortal tried to break free of the stone net, countless earthen blades shot out from the ground, stabbing at every part of his body wave after wave.
