Chapter Fifty-two: Interference
Time and time again, he stood up. Was it intentional? Yes, absolutely intentional, making me embarrassed, making me lose face in front of all my fellow sisters, how dare he!
Her eyes almost turned white, Lin Liting instinctively used the strongest thunder method she had mastered so far, five palm thunders fired at the same time, and the power was already comparable to the Divine Thunder Method. The air was filled with lightning, and the crisp sound made people's hair stand on end.
His whole body felt like it was being pressed to the ground, Sheng Cong had never been struck by lightning before, and just because he was struck didn't mean he was a masochist. With such a strong resistance to thunder and lightning, there would definitely be problems, let alone his body had already suffered many injuries. At this moment, Sheng Cong couldn't care about the previous bet, and as soon as he moved, he left the original place.
"Where are you going!" Lin Liting shouted, pointing her finger, and five palm thunderbolts chased after Shen from behind.
His body hair had been burned off, but at this moment he was also covered in goosebumps. If he were to be struck by five palm-thunderbolts at the same time, he would definitely be seriously injured or even die. The key was that the computer was fully charged, and if lightning came again, it was unknown whether it could be received or not. If it couldn't be received, wouldn't the lightning entering his body with nowhere to go...
"Gambling agreement is a hard promise, but Brother Shi's actions are breaching the agreement, this is not good!" Cao Yu's laughter echoed, and a gust of wind blade suddenly appeared in front of Shen Cong, blocking his path. Just as Shen Cong was about to turn around, a whirlwind descended from the sky, trapping him on the spot.
Brute force can break through nature without any problem, but the palm thunder is absolutely unstoppable. A violent and cruel aura surrounds his heart, the Dragon Bird Knife is grasped in Shen Cong's hand, and his eyes become somewhat bloodshot.
Lin Liting's heart skipped a beat as she met Shen Cong's gaze, the whiteness in her eyes dissipating as she suddenly came to. Looking around, she only then realized that she had unknowingly released five palm thunderbolts.
Lightning is violent, and people who specialize in thunder methods will also be affected by their personality. If it's normal, there's nothing to do. But today Lin Liting just came out of the pass, originally the most spirited moment, but was stimulated by Shen Cong's invulnerable appearance.
Lin Liting, who had a eccentric personality, was suddenly struck by lightning and influenced by her own unstable boundary to do this. At this moment, she realized that wanting to recall the Thunder Palm was too late. The Thunder Method is straightforward, it can be released but not retracted, let alone when the Thunder Method has already reached Shen Cong's face.
If Cao Yu hadn't intervened, Shen Cong could have escaped immediately, but Cao Yu's interference completely changed the situation. The Palm Thunder was suppressed by Lin Liting as much as possible, but it still came crashing down.
Cao Yu couldn't help but smile on his face, and he felt a hint of pleasure in his heart. Even if he didn't want to admit it, seeing Shen Cong continuously getting up again made Cao Yu shocked, but now it was just right to borrow someone else's hands to do his own things.
The lightning would completely cover Shen Cong from above, and the five palm-sized thunderbolts would interact with each other, giving rise to a thread of heavenly thunderfire. This kind of thunderfire usually only appears in high-level divine thunder methods, but now it has appeared, its power has increased by several times. If Shen Cong were to receive this move even in his prime state, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
But now everything is at its lowest, and the physical meridians are damaged. If handled improperly, Shen Cong may be blown to death. What's even more tragic is that if he really dies, Shen Cong's zombie body will be exposed, and Cao Yu will have no fault, but instead, he will have merit for killing the evil spirit in the door school.
At that time, Shen Cong would use his own life to make a contribution to Cao Yu and receive the generous reward from the sect's elders. However, Jian Wangfeng might be implicated, all fellow disciples would be punished, and even his own master might not escape punishment.
"Blood Wind Sword Technique, Capture the Sparrow!"
A loud roar, the zombie's blood surged and receded, Shen Cong's eyes turned completely crimson. The veins on his arm bulged out completely, and in an impossible manner, he lifted the Dragon Bird Knife, slashing out a circular yet non-circular blade of light in mid-air.
All the lightning poured into the circle uncontrollably, and Shen Cong's body shook violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The electric light tried to escape from the circle, but was desperately suppressed by Shen Cong. The tiger's mouth tore apart, and the already injured muscles burst out with fresh blood, dyeing his body red, even making Shen Cong's bones emit a grinding sound.
"You actually blocked it! However, how can I let you have your way!"
Cao Yu's eyes narrowed, and he pointed at the whirlwind with his finger. A small gust of wind shot out from his arm towards Shen Cong. As if unaware, a huge gash appeared on Shen Cong's palm, and fresh blood stained the Long Que knife.
Looking down at the wound on his arm, Shen Cong not only didn't cry out in pain, but instead revealed a sly and charming smile at the corner of his mouth. He turned his head to look at Cao Yu, his scarlet eyes staring directly at his face.
Just as Cao Yu was about to make a move, his hand hesitated for a moment. Then his eyes widened and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, but it was because he felt ashamed of being caught by Shen Cong's gaze. Just as he was about to continue attacking Shen Cong severely, a chill suddenly rose up in his heart.
"Not good!"
His body unconsciously retreated backward, but it was as if a thousand pounds of force were pressing down on him. A blue light enveloped his body, dispersing all his strength, but his figure still couldn't help but pause for a moment.
"With my blood, I'll exchange for your blood, Blood Wind Sword Technique, Break the Army!"
A low shout, and before he knew it, Shen Cong had already appeared in front of Cao Yu. The dragon bird knife, connected to the heavens and earth, mixed with lightning and blood light, chopped towards Cao Yu. Destruction and rebirth, a strange feeling filled the knife technique, with beauty, but also complete destruction.
Cao Yuxin's heart skipped a beat, and without thinking, he pointed his finger forward, and a small, meteor-like green light appeared in front of him. The green light was small, but it seemed to rotate with all the wind around it. What was originally a gentle breeze now gave off a strong, solid feeling.
Feng Ling Shield, Cao Yu's proud ultimate skill, can defend against attacks from strong enemies of the same level without taking damage. Although it was hastily summoned this time, it is still enough to block Shen Cong's attack.
"Bang!"
It seemed that the crisp sound should not have appeared in this world, and the seemingly indestructible Wind Spirit Shield began to crack from the inside out. Before Cao Yu could even react, it exploded with a loud crash. A streak of dark red pierced through the blue and landed on Cao Yu's chest.
The dark red color instantly turned into countless thin threads that pierced into Cao Yu's body, blood vessels and bone marrow. It was as if breathing, a stream of fragrant blood essence was extracted from Cao Yu's body and poured into the Long Que knife. In just one instant, half of the essence in Cao Yu's body had been depleted, and this was far from over.
No!
In a terrified roar, a talisman flew out of Cao Yu's body and blocked the Dragon Bird Knife. The surrounding space seemed to be static for a moment, followed by a crazy explosion, with a storm mixed with various powers sweeping out in all directions, making it impossible for people to react, and just in an instant, it completely submerged the surroundings.
A crazy explosion sound lingered on the martial arts arena, and Luo Qianyun appeared in the square at some point, staring at the storm below, her face not looking good.
A figure burst out from the middle, stepping on the ground several times in a row, each step crushing the ground into powder. The Dragon Bird Knife was inserted directly into the ground, and Shen Cong's retreating momentum finally came to a stop, with another mouthful of blood spewing out and staining the knife.
Lu Qianyun stood in mid-air, suddenly waving her hand, and the storm below stopped momentarily before slowly dispersing. In just a moment, it had vanished into thin air. Shen Cong turned his head to look at Lu Qianyun - this storm that could severely injure or kill someone with fourth-stage Condensed Origin cultivation was merely a wave of the hand for a sixth-stage Sect Master? This was Shen Cong's first time seeing a sixth-stage expert take action, and also the most intuitive.
A figure emerged in the storm, surrounded by a ring of light. As the storm subsided, the ring of light also shattered, and the core spirit symbol naturally dissipated.
Cao Yu looked at the spirit symbol dissipate, then suddenly turned to Shen Cong, his eyes turning crimson, "You dare to destroy my substitute symbol, how dare you, how can you do this, I'll kill you!"
"Who do you want to kill in front of me!" Luo Qianyun's calm voice, as if it had a great power, directly nailed Cao Yu to the spot. It wasn't that he couldn't move, but rather didn't dare to move. Although Cao Yu was strong, in front of a sixth-stage sect master, he was nothing more than an ant.
Cao Yu coughed, a feeling of weakness creeping up his chest. How was he so tired? It felt like he had been fighting for several days.
If Cao Yu could see his own face, he would find that it was deathly pale, without even a hint of blood color. His vital energy had been drained by half, how could he bear it?
Luo Qianyun also found Cao Yu a bit strange, but she didn't mind it, thinking that he was just hurt in the storm earlier. She didn't notice Shen Cong's even more miserable state, his face as black as charcoal, and multiple wounds on his body with bloodstains, looking very pitiful.
"What just happened and why did it end up like this." The words were calm, but there was an unstoppable pressure in the tone, that's the realm of Luo Qianyun, a sixth-stage sect master.
"Master, it was all caused by the disciples. I hope Master will punish them!" Lin Liting came to Luo Qianyun's side and slightly lowered her head to recount what had just happened.
Luo Qianyun listened to the whole thing with an expressionless face, "The boundary is unstable and was counterattacked by the magic spell. This is indeed your fault, go to the back mountain, when the boundary stabilizes, you can come out again. If you leave without permission, you will be treated as a traitor!"
"Thank you, Master!" Lin Liting walked to the side without any objection. As she passed by Shen Cong's side, there was a hint of apology in her eyes. Shen Cong smiled and didn't hold much resentment in his heart, after all, it was an unintentional mistake.
Luo Qianyun turned her head towards Cao Yu, her eyes becoming sharp, "Cao Yu, do you know your mistake!"
Cao Yu's face changed color constantly, and the spiritual energy around him became violent. As the proud son of the sect, when had Cao Yu ever suffered such humiliation? Especially after being at a disadvantage, he still had to admit his mistake, and the hatred in his heart was even deeper. He lowered his head slightly, but no one knew what he was thinking about at this moment.
One minute, two minutes...
"Disciple knows wrong, hopes Master and Uncle will punish!" Cao Yu slowly lifted his head, his face no longer resentful, but instead showed a faint smile. "Today's matter was the disciple's fault, shouldn't have interfered with the bet without reason, causing Shen Shidi to fall into danger."
Shen Cong slightly raised an eyebrow, Cao Yu was indeed a ruthless person, and in this situation, he could still endure it. Shen Cong had thought that Cao Yu would make a scene, although it would be troublesome, but ultimately just troublesome. But now Cao Yu endured it silently, fearing that in the future it wouldn't be as simple as being just troublesome.
"You don't belong to the Jade Maiden Peak, and I won't punish you. Go back and let your master deal with you, but within three years, you're not allowed to set foot on the Jade Maiden Peak again. Do you have any objections?"
"Thank you, Uncle Shi, for your kindness. I have no objections." Cao Yu bowed and then looked at Shen Cong, "Earlier, I acted recklessly and put my brother in danger. Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have done that. I hope Master can forgive me."
Shen Cong looked at Cao Yu and suddenly smiled, "What are you talking about, brother? It's actually the opposite, previously junior brother was too heavy-handed, is senior brother okay?"
"It's good that you're fine, younger brother. This injury is actually a lesson for me, and I should be thanking you instead!" A flash of cold light flickered in Cao Yu's eyes, although it was extremely brief, Shen Cong still caught it. Shen Cong understood in his heart, this child's city walls are indeed deep, and he will have to be more careful in the future.
The disciples around applauded, but it was for Cao Yu's performance that they admired. Only a few people looked at Cao Yu and then turned to look at Shen Cong, sighing in their hearts, this feud really started. One person is about to break through the fourth stage of Condensed Origin Peak, while the other is only at the second stage of combined force, the gap between the two is really too big.
Sorry it's a bit late, sorry about that.
