488 Surrounded (1/2)

A terrifying soul wave directly clashed against Xu Zhong's mind, causing his body that had been flying swiftly to once again stop.

Mo Wen stepped in the air, and in a few paces, caught up with Xu Zhong. He slashed his sword downwards. His sword Qi was imposing.

Xu Zhong cursed inside. He could not wait to fight Mo Wen to the death. Just now, he was clearly already very cautious, preserving his primordial soul and preventing Mo Wen from once again releasing a soul attack. But he still could not block that frightening soul power's onslaught.

This was infuriating. It was as though he obviously knew someone was going to do him harm, but he just could not evade it. Also, the person that was harming him was a person whose cultivation was beneath him.

Rip! Xu Zhong could not evade the blow in time. With a slash of the sword Qi, another one of his arms snapped off and dropped to the ground.

Although he was mentally prepared when the second soul attack came, and his reaction was much faster than when he was unprepared, he was still heavily affected. It was just a matter of a split second, but in a battle of experts, a split second mistake was enough to decide the outcome of the match.

Xu Zhong bit down on his teeth. His heart was enraged as he once again ran for his life. He did not believe that Mo Wen could keep releasing soul attacks. That was because it was written in old manuscripts that even for Primordial Soul realm immortal cultivators, releasing soul attacks would expend soul power. It basically could not be maintained for long.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

”You can't run.” Mo Wen's voice quietly came from behind. Then, a huge roar sounded in Xu Zhong's mind again. His figure shook and was stunned at his position for a split second.

A beam of sword Qi came slashing down at this moment, cleaving Xu Zhong in front of his chest.

”Ah!” Xu Zhong roared. His eyes were crimson, like a feral beast. He had actually used his Golden Elixir realm body and rich Inner Qi to forcefully block the sword Qi.

The sharp sword Qi actually did not manage to split apart his body. It only left a wound so deep that it reached the bones. Blood and flesh were sent flying. His innards spilled out of his stomach, his intestines hanging out.

”B*stard, even if I die, I will not let you go.” Xu Zhong felt the world turn gray. A sense of despair welled up inside of him. He could not block Mo Wen's soul attack at all. If he simply tried to run, then he would surely end up dead.

If one was not afraid of death, then naturally they would not fear anything else. Not only did Xu Zhong not try to escape, he even turned back and frantically pounced onto Mo Wen.

Mo Wen's eyes flashed with a look of surprise. His expression turned slightly serious. A Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner was very difficult to kill. No matter whether it was their body or cultivation, they were all at a frightening level. Even in this condition, Xu Zhong was still a very big threat. In reality, it was always the injured beasts that were the most frightening.

”Die!” Mo Wen's eyes flashed with a golden light. He once again unleashed a soul attack, sending it crashing towards Xu Zhong. Xu Zhong's figure shuddered. As he got closer, another sword Qi came slashing down.

However, whether it was because Xu Zhong's emotions were too wild, or because Mo Wen had used soul attacks too many times, the power of his attacks was decreasing. This time, the disturbing effect was only a third of the ones before. Xu Zhong's eyes fell into a trance for a moment, then he recovered right away. In the nick of time, he had actually avoided the slash from the sword.

Bang! Xu Zhong furiously sent out a palm strike, its frenzied power crashing towards Mo Wen. Mo Wen raised his eyebrows and retreated, this time not going head-to-head with Xu Zhong. Right now, Xu Zhong was too frenzied. He hadn't held back at all with his palm strike and it caused Mo Wen's blood to churn.

”Brat, if you have balls, don't run.” Xu Zhong was so enraged, he coughed blood. Mo Wen had actually retreated with the look of a rogue. He had already damaged his vigor, throwing out attacks without any regard for his life. He could not sustain it for long.

”Only a fool would not run. If you have balls, come after me.” Mo Wen laughed. Wasn't it suicide going head-to-head with a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner who was fighting to the death? Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners were very strong in many aspects. It was too difficult to kill one without using spell talismans.

However, it was also because his current cultivation was too low. If he had later stage Embryonic Breathing realm cultivation, maybe it would be much easier to kill Xu Zhong.

”I'll slash you.” Mo Wen simply slashed out with his sword. At the same time, he once again unleashed another soul attack. The moment that Xu Zhong's gaze flickered, the sword Qi instantly appeared in front of him. Once he recovered, he hastily dodged it. However, this slash was too quick. It missed his vital organs, but another bone-deep slash wound appeared on his body.

”As expected of a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. Your body is indeed very strong,” Mo Wen exclaimed.

If it was an Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioner, Mo Wen would have long since sliced him in two. However, it was also because he could not use his more powerful techniques as they took time to prepare and were too slow. By the time he got ready, his opponent would have long since regained consciousness. It could not be used together with the soul attack at all.

However, a simple slash from Mo Wen's sword was also very terrifying. Xu Zhong, a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, had nearly been slashed into pieces by him.

”Brat, I will take you down with me!” Xu Zhong roared frenziedly. He dashed hysterically towards Mo Wen, with a kamikaze look. But Mo Wen did not go head-to-head with him, dodging left and right. When the enemy retreated he advanced and when the enemy advanced he retreated. He thoroughly implemented the style of guerilla tactics.

Xu Zhong was so angry that he coughed up tens of mouths of blood. Despite the words coming out of this mouth, he could not do anything against Mo Wen.

As time continued, Xu Zhong's aura grew weaker and weaker. His strength was also frantically decreasing. He even found it difficult to maintain being in the air.
