Chapter 488 - 9: Sun and Moon Divine Jade
Fang Zheng suddenly lunged forward, striking with a clenched fist.
His face showed no emotional fluctuation, Essence Qi and Spirit gathered entirely on the fist’s tip. Even before he arrived, the Fist Intent had already firmly locked onto the target.
"Is it you?"
Black Wind Ascendant recognized this Flawless Martial Artist who had participated in surrounding and killing him, and he also knew the identity of the newcomer.
The tyrant of Gu’an County!
The master of Fang Mansion!
For a moment, his heart was a mix of shock and anger.
Shock because he was now severely wounded, at the lowest point of his strength, yet the opponent managed to ambush him.
Anger because once he was so much more than such a character, and never would have regarded the tyrant of Gu’an County with importance, yet now he dared to make a move against him.
Yet...
He could feel the threat of death!
"Hah!"
With a roar of anger, a storm of wind and sand whipped up between the two of them, forming a wall that separated the two.
"Peng!"
Fang Zheng’s fist pierced into the ’wall’, and the sand exploded instantly.
However, the sand was like water, continuously flowing and overlapping, making the fist feel like it had plunged into a muddy swamp, unable to advance.
Let alone touch the target behind it.
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Fang Zheng’s eyes flickered with thunder, his entire body suddenly lit up, with the Power of Thunder fully gathering at the fist’s tip.
In an instant.
A thick bolt of lightning shot out from the fist, directly piercing through the wall of sand, blasting towards Black Wind Ascendant.
"Peng!"
A Turtle Shell Shield appeared out of nowhere, blocking in front of Black Wind Ascendant, the giant force pushing him to stagger back, but he remained unscathed.
Defensive Magical Artifact?
Fang Zheng’s eyes flickered, and his figure flashed forward again, his palms continually striking outwards, with trails of thunder blasting out first.
Five-Thunder Palm!
At the same time, he sneered:
"The so-called invincible under the True Master, is nothing more than this."
"Mm!"
Black Wind Ascendant controlled the shield to intercept the thunder, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, while also using the storm to fend off the enemy.
Even though he knew the opponent was trying to provoke him, he couldn’t help but lose control of his emotions.
"A young one dares to insult me like this?"
"Seeking death!"
His eyes widened, summoning the remaining Mana in his body, turning wind and sand into an endless cover.
The next moment.
The scene before him caused his expression to change drastically.
Fang Zheng, enveloped in the sandstorm, revealed a Protective Force four feet and three inches around him, firmly holding his ground.
Four feet and three inches?
The usual Flawless Martial Artist, even at Peak Realm cultivation base, the Protective Force would not exceed three feet.
Cyan Wolf was known for his extraordinary talent, his Protective Force measured four feet and seven inches, yet this one had four feet and three inches?
This indicates that his Cultivation Technique must be quite exceptional and has reached an extremely high level.
With such cultivation,
Why was his reputation not known earlier?
"What of high cultivation?"
His thoughts shifted, and Black Wind Ascendant coldly smiled:
"Trapped in my Bone-Eroding Soul-Devouring Wind and Doomsday Earth Sand, unable to discern directions, is ultimately a dead end."
"Even with just a sliver of Mana left, I can kill you!"
"Is that so?" Fang Zheng smiled lightly:
"Don’t forget, this Fang is also a Mage."
As he spoke, dozens of Spirit Talismans flew out from the Qiankun Bag, entering the sandstorm, simultaneously causing an explosion.
"Boom!"
Thunder-Attracting Talisman!
"Swish!"
With a wave of his hand, clusters of lightning appeared out of nowhere, transforming into Thunder Sabers under his control.
The Thunder Sabers crisscrossed in the air, their power skyrocketing with the support of the Thunder-Attracting Talisman.
In an instant.
In the sandstorm, it seemed as if a terrifying giant beast struggled to rise, impossible to suppress despite the whirling sand.
Black Wind Ascendant turned pale, attempting to flee, only to find his limbs unable to move even an inch.
At some unknown point, five phantoms appeared around him, reaching to grasp him.
"Ghosts!"
"When did this happen?"
"It started when I first made my move." Fang Zheng spoke, cloaked in thunder, leaping out of the storm.
Heart Intent—Five Thunders!
All of his True Qi transformed into dazzling lightning, descending from above, enveloping Black Wind Ascendant in an instant.
"Boom!"
Thunder roared.
With the cracking of stone at his feet, Black Wind Ascendant turned pitch black, his eyes rolling back as he passed out.
"Troublesome!"
Fang Zheng lightly exhaled:
"If his strength wasn’t completely intact, I’d have to use the Five Ghost Celestial Demon Transformation to contend with him head-on."
"No wonder he’s been a force for decades, he indeed has some skills."
"But there’s no need to belittle myself. This Fang has only been on the path of cultivation for over twenty years, it’s normal not to compare."
Steadying his spirit, he turned back for a glance, reaching out to grab Black Wind Ascendant and Li Shu, then leaped away to flee.
......
In a certain mountain cave.
Dark, damp, and chilling.
"Hiss..."
A basin of cold water was poured over Black Wind Ascendant’s head, jolting him awake from unconsciousness.
But he quickly realized that his body was restricted by multiple bindings, unable to execute any technique.
"You..."
Gazing at Fang Zheng, his eyes flickered:
"You didn’t kill me after all?"
"No rush." Fang Zheng paced closer, holding two objects in his hands, a palm-sized miniature gourd and a turtle shell the size of a bowl.
These two objects were Black Wind Ascendant’s treasures; one could release wind and sand, the other was a Defensive Magical Artifact.
Neither were ordinary items.
"Senior."
Fang Zheng squatted in front of him, speaking slowly:
"I’ve heard you have a treasure that can greatly increase Comprehension, which is why you became so famous."
"You know quite a lot." Black Wind Ascendant snorted coldly:
"Too bad!"
"I gave that thing to someone else long ago, so don’t count on it. That person might even avenge me knowing you killed me."
"Are you referring to True Master Iron Flute Immortal?" Fang Zheng chuckled softly:
"To my knowledge, that person only ensures you’re not threatened by True Masters or Martial Sects, which is why the Prince hasn’t bothered to kill you."
"If someone below the Martial Sect acts, he might not care."
"And also..."
His eyes narrowed slightly:
"To my knowledge, you have two such treasures that greatly increase Comprehension; you offered up one but still have another."
