Chapter 139: Youve Already Lost (1/2)

”I see.”

Indeed, Shen Ruoshi had not used the Earth Dust Scripture against a mortal.

In the past, the opponents she faced were either demon beasts or cultivators. Which one of them did not carry spiritual qi? She did not expect that someone would use this trait to avoid being affected.

However, after hearing this, she gradually calmed down.

Just now, she was only a little nervous because of the Earth Dust Scripture's failure.

In her heart, the Earth Dust Scripture was simply a supreme holy scripture, so when she discovered that it was not so absolutely powerful, she lost her composure.

However, even though she was unable to take down Jiang Li until now, this junior brother of hers was unable to do anything to her.

Before her spiritual qi was exhausted, it was not time to admit defeat.

”Junior Brother Jiang Li, thank you for answering my questions. However, I'll still do my best from now on.”

Shen Ruoshi adjusted her mood as her expression became serious. If someone familiar with her saw this, they would be shocked.

Shen Ruoshi, who was always smiling, had actually shown such an expression.

She formed hand seals and released the spiritual qi that even Jiang Li could clearly sense from her body. Clearly, she was preparing a powerful spell technique.

Jiang Li immediately rushed forward and threw a punch.

There was no surprise, it was still dust that scattered.

However, what surprised Jiang Li was that he was actually unable to interrupt his opponent's casting. What was up with this Earth Dust Scripture's escape technique? Was it really invincible?

If not for the fact that Jiang Li did not have an earth attribute spiritual root and could not cultivate the Earth Dust Scripture, he would have turned around and entered the Heaven and Earth Hall.

If he could use such a strange escape technique and coupled with his perpetual motion machine characteristics, he could at least wander around the Great Mountain Region safely.

Unfortunately, this was fate…

Jiang Li, who possessed the Beast Blood Diagram, was still jealous of other people's cultivation methods and secret techniques.

He shattered the other party's body a few more times, but it still did not have any effect.

The floating dust cloud also slowly changed.

Dust gathered together and formed small pieces.

Soon, a dirt ball formed in the dust. As it continued to gather, the dirt ball grew larger and larger. Finally, the five balls of dust formed five long earthen yellow spikes in the air that looked like they were made of rocks.

Looking at this situation, Jiang Li roughly understood the other party's thoughts.

Since she did not have enough mental power to control the dust in a large area, she would gather them together. She would move them in the same direction and control them like a piece of artifact.

From countless free particles to five complete earth spikes, wouldn't the difficulty of controlling them drop drastically?

”Senior Sister, no need to hold back. I'll also use my full strength.”

Jiang Li's expression became very serious as he looked at the five floating earth spikes.

The thick and heavy spiritual qi emanating from them was really frightening.

The turbid air heavy earth refined by the Earth Dust Scripture was absolutely not ordinary.

A single dust particle was weak and powerless, and it could not even injure a mortal or even tear a piece of paper.

However, countless specks of dust gathered together, and countless tiny forces pushed in the same direction. The power produced would definitely be terrifying to the point of being unable to resist.

A clay ball the size of a marble could easily pierce through ten mortal heavy armor, and these five earth spikes were all as thick as a wrist and 30 centimeters long.

This was the Heaven and Earth Hall's cultivator, Shen Ruoshi. She had cultivated the Earth Dust Scripture for more than ten years to accumulate the turbid air heavy earth. Once she unleashed it, the power would definitely be extraordinary.

Whoosh! Boom!

Jiang Li's figure instantly appeared tens of meters away.

On his face, there was a bloody scratch. Something brushed past the skin as wide as a finger's length and half a centimeter of flesh below the skin.

Jiang Li's tough skin was actually unable to resist this kind of attack at all. This made Jiang Li, who always used defense to bully others, feel extremely uncomfortable.

He looked at the spot where he had originally stood. After the dust settled, a hole the thickness of a wrist appeared there. With Jiang Li's hearing, he could even hear the sound of wind coming from the hole.

His heart beat wildly a few times. The power of that earth spike just now actually directly pierced through the platform!

What an exaggerated attack!

Jiang Li thought to himself that it was a close call. Fortunately, he was not careless and dodged in time. Otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground and lost after the previous strike.

But it was not yet time to be relieved. The remaining four spikes turned and pointed at him.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Jiang Li tapped the ground with his foot, and his figure instantly vanished on the spot. With a speed that he could currently control, he moved at an irregularly high speed on the combat arena.

No matter how strong the attack was, as long as it did not hit someone, it was useless.

Bang!

He shattered his opponent's body with another punch.

However, Jiang Li noticed that the dust that erupted from the other party's body was far less delicate than before. The earth attribute spiritual qi contained in it was also far weaker than before.

Clearly, according to the degree of refinement and nurturing, the turbid air heavy earth was also divided into grades.

The most powerful core portion had already been drawn out to form the five earth spikes.

Whoosh! Boom!

As soon as Jiang Li swung his fist, another earth spike suddenly shot down.

Sparks flew as hole was formed in the specially reinforced Foundation Establishment stage after the earth spike penetrated it.

The earth spike brushed past Jiang Li's waist, colliding with the Dragon Imprisoning Lock around his waist.

With just this collision, Jiang Li's waist seemed to have suffered a heavy blow. He suddenly felt a pain and was sent flying over a hundred meters away, almost falling off the stage!

Jiang Li rolled over and stood up. He did not dare to stay any longer and quickly left the spot, continuing to run at high speed. Even with Jiang Li's terrifying speed, as long as he paused for a moment, he would be caught and attacked.

This time, he did not dare to be careless. His body moved like a bolt of lightning, and his actual body could not be seen.

Not far away, Shen Ruoshi appeared again. However, she looked exhausted, it was obvious that the two spikes were a huge drain on her.

Moreover, the two earth spikes that had already shot out did not appear again.

It seemed that it was a one-time use attack that could instantly erupt the spiritual qi accumulated in the dust. Although it was powerful, she would lose a large amount of turbid air heavy earth. Even if she won in the end, she would suffer a heavy loss and her combat strength would be greatly reduced.

Moreover, judging from her current state, even if she was given more turbid air heavy earth, Shen Ruoshi would not have enough spiritual qi to condense more earth spikes.

Swoosh!

As he ran, the Dragon Imprisoning Lock on Jiang Li's waist flew out and swept towards the three earth spikes in the sky, attempting to destroy the dangerous spikes directly.

Boom!

Before the Dragon Imprisoning Lock could touch them, an earth spike was forced to change targets and strike the Dragon Imprisoning Lock. The thick, pitch-black chain was struck so hard that it fell to the ground.

With the toughness of the Dragon Imprisoning Lock, it was naturally not damaged. However, its body was already covered in dust that had yet to be cleaned. When it smashed onto the ground, the surrounding inferior-grade dust swarmed over, wrapping the Dragon Imprisoning Lock tightly.

As a result, it could not break free in a short period of time.

Jiang Li was slightly helpless. His Dragon Imprisoning Lock had actually only taken down one of the other party's earth spikes. This was truly a little too disappointing.

However, there were still two earth spikes left. As long as he dealt with them, Jiang Li would definitely win this battle!

While Jiang Li was running, he looked at Shen Ruoshi who was still standing in the middle of the ring.

The other party's face had long lost its calm. Her face was pale as paper and sweat poured down like rain. From the looks of it, she was definitely an arrow at the end of its flight.

She was unlike Jiang Li, who had a large amount of spiritual qi flowing out from his body at all times, allowing him to maintain his peak condition.

Shen Ruoshi had already used the Earth Dust Scripture twice in a row on a large scale. She was also affected by Jiang Li and had exhausted a lot of her spiritual qi.

Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator could not withstand such a battle of attrition.

These five earth spikes were her last bit of stubbornness. If she could not hit Jiang Li, then her remaining spiritual qi would not even be able to maintain the Earth Dust escape technique.

Thus, all of her hopes for victory rested on these last two earth spikes.

However, Jiang Li still had other methods.

As he ran, he muttered incantations while his hands formed a few simple wood attribute seals.

In the Scripture Storage Valley, it was not a profound spell technique. However, after combining it with one of the wood attribute secret techniques of the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak, it could become extremely powerful, turning something useless into something magical.

He ran around Shen Ruoshi at high speed. When the other party could not grasp his movements, he released a large amount of wood-attribute spiritual qi to the outside world.
