C27 (2/2)

Using the counterforce from my palm, I instantly fled hundreds of feet away. In this extremely dark place, it would be difficult for them to catch up to me.

However, they did not give chase. It was as if they had only acted for this one palm strike. After escaping for a long distance, I quickly hid myself and recuperate my internal injuries.

They could have chased me here. Even though it would be troublesome, it would be hard for me to escape from them if I were to catch up with them. Why did I give up such a good opportunity? Next time, I told myself, I must not be so careless. I gritted my teeth and memorized this lesson.

While sighing bitterly, I increased my speed and headed deeper. The unknown might not necessarily be scary, but it could also be life!

After advancing for an unknown amount of time, I suddenly stopped. It was as though there were two eyes staring at me. I thought about it, but I don't know why. Perhaps I was too sensitive, I shook my head and continued walking forward. However, I didn't let my guard down at all.

I thought I had done well enough, but I was wrong, ridiculously wrong.

Just as I was about to step forward carefully, the scenery in front of me suddenly changed. Without much time to think, I immediately retreated, but the scene behind me was no longer the darkness within the valley. Steadying my mind, I looked around me. I was surrounded by bare stone mountains, and I was standing on top of a stone mountain.

”Zhang Fugui, I want to see how you're going to escape this time!”

Dunlin's voice came from all directions. How could they have guessed my route and set a trap here? I had the feeling that a pair of eyes were watching me, and now it looked like they were the only ones who had ever done it.

”I only have one question. How did you see me?” Even though I was nervous, the calmness in my voice was clear.

”Humph, do you remember Qian Tao? I've cast a spell on him, and I can feel his movements. As for you, you've been in contact with Qian Tao, so naturally, you were affected by my spell as well. ”

”So it turns out that Qian Tao was captured by me on purpose in order to grasp my whereabouts. That palm should only be a test of my strength.”

I admit that I'm not as smart as him, but I definitely won't admit defeat!

I raised my head to look at the sky filled with thunder. I no longer cared about conserving my spirit energy as I flew up. Boom! A bolt of lightning hit my body. If I didn't dodge fast enough, I would have been struck dead.

Hmph, with so many demons around, you would dare strike me?!

I was extremely angry and let out a roar. I gathered spirit power in my right fist and threw a punch. Bolts of lightning landed on my body. With my spirit armor, I wasn't afraid in the slightest. In the air, a fist struck the sky.

”Boom! Boom!” Several sounds rang out but the formation was not broken! Right now, I don't know how many lightning strikes are already on my body. I'm not injured, but my spirit energy is slowly decreasing. Before long, I'm afraid that I will die within this formation. ”I started to panic as I continuously waved my fists in the air. It is unknown just how many pieces of the mountain this stone mountain has shattered.” Peng! A light sound rang out and a bolt of lightning was blown away by my fist.

I vaguely saw something, so that's how it was! I understand, I laughed out loud. This formation is just an illusion array. Two weapons as the main, it turns into a sky full of lightning. If you break your weapon, then this formation will naturally be broken as well.

I didn't avoid the lightning. I waved both of my fists, and after half an incense stick of time, the lightning in the sky split into two, and with a hiss, they turned into fragments. If one were to look closely, they would see that they were indeed metal scraps.

After breaking the formation, I returned to the valley. I grabbed a few iron shavings and threw them at the cliff wall. ”Dang!” I poured spiritual power into the iron shavings, and with the help of the Qi Fighting Technique, they bounced back to the cliff wall on the other side several times. Using the weak sparks, I could clearly see the gloomy Deng Lin in front of me and the extremely cautious Li Chenxi behind me.

”Today, if you don't die, then we will!” Dunlin's sinister voice revealed his murderous intent.

Li Chenxi chuckled, ”Go out? Hmph, who would believe you? Do you dare to guarantee that you won't do anything behind your back!? ”

Shaking his head, it seemed that this battle was unavoidable! If they wanted to fight, then so be it.

Deng Lin and Li Chenxi's weapons were destroyed and their strength was reduced, but I didn't have a weapon, so it seemed like we were on par with each other.

I swallowed the last lesson of the pill. If I die here, all other pills will be in vain.

Although the duo's teamwork was flawless, they could still be considered to have a tacit understanding of each other. Under the pincer attack of the two of them, I found it difficult.

After fighting for an hour, we were on par with each other. However, it was obvious that when my spiritual energy was exhausted, they still had enough strength to kill me! He had no choice but to fight with his life on the line.

Dodging Deng Lin's attack, I turned around and received Li Chenxi's punch. This punch contained boundless spiritual energy, and the spirit armor on my chest was immediately shattered. Blood gushed out of my mouth and I spat it out. Li Chenxi did not expect that this punch would hit me, and my reaction was delayed for a moment. After being sprayed with a mouthful of blood on my eyes, he subconsciously closed his eyes. Ignoring Deng Lin's palm behind me, my fingers formed a sword shape, and I stabbed one finger into Li Chenxi's throat.

”Heh heh heh heh heh …” Li Chenxi's eyes widened, his face filled with unwillingness as he held his throat and staggered backwards, falling onto a stone wall and twitching.

After being hit by a palm and a fist, I wasn't feeling any better. I still had some spiritual energy left and my injuries were quite severe. I was forced to retreat by the desperate Deng Lin.

”Hah!” Dunlin swung his palm vertically, and a beam of light more than three feet long struck my shoulder. I gritted my teeth, and instead of retreating, I advanced. The instant that Dunlin made his move, I stabbed my palm into his stomach. As for me, my left shoulder was split by a palm, and my shoulder bones were about to shatter.

”Bang!” Deng Lin sent me flying with a single palm strike. He also retreated several steps back before leaning against the cliff and staring at me.

After the exchange of blows, the surroundings darkened once more. The only sound that could be heard was the three of them breathing heavily.

”Hahahaha, I originally thought that it would be more than enough for the two of us to kill you. Who would've thought that it would still fall into your hands.” Dunlin laughed bitterly, unwilling to accept this.

I panted, unable to answer. So what if I can answer, the surroundings have already turned dark, even if it is once again in light, just how much hope can I see …
