Chapter 300 - Reinforcement (1/2)
The Heavenly Dharma Qi Practitioner's avatar was incredibly huge, just when Zhong Yue stepped out a foot, the avatar's hand reached out a few ten meters away and slammed towards himself.
This was not his real body, but a body formed by the clouds. His real body was still a thousand miles away, but since he possessed strong power, he was able to launch an attack from afar!
Zhong Yue shouted, and his Golden Peng Sword grew to 3000 feet long, roughly about the same size as the hand of the Heavenly Dharma Practitioner's avatar!
The sword slashed through the cloud hand as if it cut through real flesh. Unfortunately, the Golden Peng Sword was just a part of the Divine Wing Saber. Thus, it failed to do any extra damage after severing two fingers.
And after cutting off the two fingers, the sword was stuck at the middle finger. Just before Zhong Yue removed the sword away from the cloud hand, the hand clenched and grabbed the sword before fiercely punching Zhong Yue!
The impact created when the sword struck on the cloud hand almost shook Zhong Yue out of his Atman Body As One state. The powerful winds the hand created made a crater on the ground that grew bigger
r as it continued to get closer to the ground.
Zhong Yue also continued to be pushed downwards into the group even though the hand did not touch him at all. The force of the wind bent his wings out of shape and caused him to fall from the sky!
Zhong Yue tried his best to flap his wings, changing the direction of his fall towards the jungle as he slammed straight into the trees. He mowed down anything that was in his path of crashing, leaving fallen trees, shattered rocks, and scorching fire behind him due to the frictional force.
He was sent rolling on the ground for ten miles away before he regained his balance, jumped into the air and charged forward.
Just as he left the spot, the cloud hand punched onto the spot. It shook the ground vigorously, and it cracked open when the two severed fingers fell onto the ground.
As soon as the fingers touched the ground, they twisted, vanished and two white-haired old men with white eyebrows and beards appeared. Judging from their identical appearances, they were most probably the Zhong Li Celestial Race's people.
Again, the two old men were formed by the clouds, similar to the cloud hand. They were part of the avatar of the Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioner. The two old men were about 400 meters tall, and they leaped into the air, closely followed behind Zhong Yue while they hurled all sorts of skills towards Zhong Yue. At the same time, the cloud giant standing in the air retracted his arms with the Golden Peng Sword held tightly in his fist as he wanted to take the sword for himself.
"Small, small, small!" shouted Zhong Yue.
The Golden Peng Sword suddenly turned small and slipped through the gaps of the cloud giant's fist.
Zhong Yue continued to dash forward while the two old man chased behind him, persistently bombarded him with their attacks.
"Larger, larger, larger!"
The Golden Peng Sword flew to the back of the two old men, and it enlarged back to 3000 feet long, severing their two bodies.
The sword then moved again, dicing the two old men into infinite pieces before returning into Zhong Yue's wings.
However, right after the two men's pieces touched the ground, they suddenly reformed into another two identical old men. They continued to chase after Zhong Yue without rest even while knowing that he was already too far gone.
And in the air, the avatar of the Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioner clenched their fist, that only had with three fingers left, and punched towards Zhong Yue again. But the same thing happened, Zhong Yue used his sword and severed its middle finger. Zhong Yue then took the chance and flew away from the cloud giant's attack range as he rode on the wind and fire.
The old men then turned into mini clouds and flew into the skies. The severed middle finger that was still falling from the skies also turned into clouds and returned to the avatar's hand.
"Running away so fast…."
The avatar looked at the direction in which Zhong Yue ran, and he suddenly humphed before vanishing into a wisp of clouds.
After a few moments, an old man with the same look of the previous old men arrived at the scene on a war chariot pulled by two Ardent Fire Birds.
And at the back of the war chariot were the pursuers from the South and West Barren.
The old man on the chariot was the Mister Changkong from the Zhu Rong Race!
The Zhong Li Celestial Race consisted of not only Martial Masters but also quite a generous number of Qi Practitioners. Similar to the Martial Masters, many of these Qi Practitioners in the Zhong Li Celestial Race also obtained amazing achievements in their cultivation and among them were this Zhurong Changkong from Zhurong Family.
It was him that visualized the avatar that tried to kill Zhong Yue from a thousand miles away, and Zhong Yue narrowly escaped only thanks to the Golden Peng Sword, or otherwise, he would have been captured long ago.
"No wonder you guys could not catch him, this Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin'er are both slippery targets. The girl is good at deploying arrays and traps while the boy excels in utilizing everything on the spot to gain advantages that could benefit him greatly."
Zhurong Changkong then said, "We have discovered the demon ladies' corpses under Madame Hua Zhen, and they said that the girls are killed by these two people as well, which greatly enraged Madame Hua Zhen. There's nothing to do with you all anymore, return to the capital at once."
A Martial Master from Xia Family quickly replied, "Mister Changkong, Zhong Yue, and Qiu Jin'er are both cunning and sly, if they escape again, it would be very difficult to locate them again. With our help, we might be able to help you pinpoint their location.
Zhurong Changkong however, laughed and replied, "I asked you all to go because I'm worried that you all might not be able to beat these two brats."
Everyone around him laughed and said, "With Mister Changkong's presence, I am sure that the two brats will not be able to hurt us in front of you! Besides, they are just Atman Body level Qi Practitioners and the weakest among us are also Atman Body level Qi Practitioner! All we need is just a few Inner Core level Martial Masters to stall the two of them while the others bombard them with skills and we will be able to kill them easily."
After a moment of consideration, Zhurong Changkong nodded and agreed to the proposal of the Martial Master from the Xia Family. Although he was a Heavenly Dharma level Qi Practitioner and possessed immense power, he was bad at tracking, which meant that it would be hard for him to track Zhong Yue again if Zhong Yue escaped again.
