13 Dangerous Battle (2/2)
When he heard the words of the person in blue, Elder Zhang hardened his heart. When Xiao Yulan pierced her sword at him, he did not dodge, instead of punching out at her temple with a precise purpose. This girl wanted to fight with him so badly it seemed, suffering heavy injuries to try to get him to bleed, to activate Poinsettia's fatal poison. She was treating it as though he had no way to force out the poison.
Just when Elder Zhang's fist was about to land, Xiao Yulan twisted her body in midair, creating two more Xiao Yulans that looked exactly the same. The one he struck immediately became countless scattered red petals.
Elder Zhang was not surprised. He smiled and roared shortly after exposing her flaws, ”This should be your trump card, Inferior Grade Profound Ranked Martial Technique, Flower Clones. However, it is time to end this farce—Beast Soul Possession!”
A phantom image of an ape appeared behind Elder Zhang's body. In a flash, Elder Zhang turned into some kind of human-ape monster. This was the ability of Martial Grand Masters, Martial Spirit Possession.
After the Martial Spirit possessed the body, one's speed and strength would increase by several folds. Sometimes, someone would even obtain the special abilities of their Martial Spirit.
Elder Zhang used his right hand, which had extended its length by an additional half, and clenched his fist in midair. A bolt of lightning struck one of Xiao Yulan's clones, turning it into a scatter of red petals with a loud boom.
Laughing weirdly, Elder Zhang jumped like an ape and extended his two arms, grabbing at the last clone.
”Boom!”
The last clone was also shattered into countless red petals. Within an instant, the surrounding space became filled with the Red Poinsettia petals. Elder Zhang was overwhelmed with amazement and looked behind him, spotting another seven clones behind him amidst dancing petals.
Elder Zhang appeared to be flustered and mumbled: ”That's not possible, even the highest realm of Flower Clones can only create ten clones. Given your age, how could you have trained in that realm?”
Xiao Yulan coldly said: ”Beast Soul Possession, this requires all the Essence in your body to be activated. The poison of my Poinsettia should have taken effect by now, it's over.”
Seven shadows came flying in from different directions, and the slender Broken Moon Sword merged together with the petals, intertwining with each other. Without Elder Zhang's Essence to restrict it, Poinsettia's poison started to work on his nerves, causing his limbs to twitch,
”Puchi!”
The seven shadows merged back together into Xiao Yulan as she appeared behind Elder Zhang's back. The petals were dancing behind her as the Broken Moon Sword streaked across his back, inflicting a hideous wound. As blood flowed from it, Poinsettia's poison completely came into effect, sentencing Elder Zhang to certain death within ten breaths of time.
However, just at this moment, Elder Zhang suddenly turned around and grabbed the Broken Moon Sword with his hands.
”Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!”
