Chapter 656 – Three Thousand Illusions
Chapter 656 – Three Thousand Illusions
Now she had no choice but to brace herself and endure this!
This woman, Feng Xuan, was no weakling!
“Three Thousand Illusions!” When the Martial Overlord Seal was about to arrive, her gaze turned cold and essence flowed through her whole body. With the surge of essence and power, a strong gust of wind blew around her and turned into three thousand illusions. These illusions were humanoid shadows made of wind. They all looked like people, but they were not solid!
This is a divine technique similar to the Divine Fire Clone and Demonic Illusion. Every illusion created by Three Thousand Illusions is a clone. Compared to the other two techniques, Three Thousand Illusions is much more powerful in terms of numbers, agility, and power!
Long Chen privately analyzed the attack.
Three Thousand Illusions was a divine combat technique, but Feng Xuan had used it as a defensive technique. Faced with the looming threat of the Martial Overlord Seal, the three thousand shadows flew at it. Every illusion was a powerful attack that could stop the Martial Overlord seal for a while. When combined together, three thousand of them were an immense force!
The Martial Overlord Seal and Three Thousand Illusions collided!
Boom!
Explosions rang out consecutively as each shadow collided with the Martial Overlord Seal, causing a large explosion. After the explosion, the shadows turned into the wind and disappeared while a new shadow emerged from Feng Xuan’s side!
This attack was much stronger than Three Thousand Palms!
Feng Xuan could fire an endless stream of them until she exhausted all her Qi. Of course, her opponent would be long dead by then!
The golden war god that was the Martial Overlord Seal battled the three thousand shadows while the crowd watched with their jaws on the floor.
These two were true masters. Even their battle was exciting to watch!
Long Chen was deeply impressed.
He currently had the Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw and the Wind God Kick, but they were far weaker than an attack like the Martial Overlord Seal. Long Chen felt like he lacked an attack that could kill his opponent in one move!
Gathering the Five Emperor Seals is my goal. But if I can get an advanced King-tier technique before that, something like the Martial Overlord Seal, it would be better ... But the Martial Overlord Seal belongs to Zhao Wuji. He did not even pass it down to Zhao Danchen, so how would I get it?
Initially, Feng Xuan was holding off the Martial Overlord Seal, but the tides turned while Long Chen was thinking!
Zhao Wuji was terrifying when he was mad. After his Martial Overlord Seal was blocked by Feng Xuan, he gritted his teeth and drew a lot more energy from his Essence Rings. This power had exceeded what he could control, causing the martial veins in his body to start showing signs of breaking down. Blood trickled out of his skin, but he was bent on killing Feng Xuan, so he did not even frown at this!
Zhao Wuji directed copious amounts of energy into the Martial Overlord seal, which was instantly charged with an earth-shattering power. The Martial Overlord Seal was now moving forward at a speed faster than the Three Thousand Illusions could deal with. The large, golden-armored war god roared in anger, then it swung its large, golden fist at Feng Xuan!
Boom!
Countless illusions stood in front of Feng Xuan, but even so, she was launched into the air!
While she flew through the sky, blood sprayed out of her mouth, dying her veil red. The veil slipped off while she flew, revealing her face. She had seductive and demon-like features. Although she looked like she was in her twenties, she was actually in her thirties.
The path of cultivation was also a path of longevity.
As a person’s cultivation level increased, their lifespan lengthened too.
The Four Foundational Realms did not do much to increase one’s lifespan, but after reaching the First Earthly Martial Stage, a cultivator could live for more than a hundred years. Every stage of the Earthly Martial Realm increased a person’s lifespan by fifty years. At the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage, a cultivator could live for more than five hundred years.
However, after breaking through to the Heavenly Martial Realm, they could live for a thousand years!
In other empires, there were old monsters who had lived for centuries. Those people were truly terrifying!
At the Heavenly Martial Realm, advancing a level increased a person’s lifespan by a century! The monsters at the Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage could basically live for more than two thousand years.
If a person could reach the legendary Divine Martial Realm, then they could live for more than five thousand years. The increase in lifespan was more terrifying after that. It was rumored that a person could live for ten thousand years at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm!
Ten thousand years. What was that like?
No empire among the Ten Great Empires had a history of ten thousand years, yet a person could live for ten thousand years. This was no longer a person, this was a legendary deity!
Of course, the Heavenly and Divine Martial Realms were far out of Long Chen’s reach.
He was still at the Second Earthly Martial Stage, and struggling to break through to the third.
Zhao Wuji initially did not look like he could defeat Feng Xuan, but after using Divine Martial Possession, he defeated her in one strike. At the same time, due to overexertion, his internal organs sustained great damage. He likely needed a long time to heal.
But if what he got in return for this damage was Feng Xuan’s death, then it was worth it. The Myriad Earth Essence was a minor issue, but the Ancient Token was major. Zhao Wuji was not at all afraid when Long Shan appeared, but Feng Xuan was different. As long as she was alive, he would never sleep well.
“Die!” After successfully hitting Feng Xuan, he dashed over as fast as he could, turning into a golden ray of light!
The golden light instantly arrived in front of her!
Zhao Wuji’s performance made the spectators cheer.
Martial Overlord City was where the core members of the Martial Alliance lived. Here, most people supported the Martial Overlord’s rule.
Is Feng Xuan going to die just like that? Long Chen was shocked. He thought the Martial Overlord was surely dead, but he had the Essence Rings. He had managed to borrow his ancestors’ strength to defeat her in one strike.
If Zhao Wuji could hit her again, the incapacitated Feng Xuan surely would be unable to block him. Blood had sprayed out of her mouth, showing that she had sustained internal injuries. Zhao Wuji moved too fast, so she could not stop him at all!
Within an extremely short moment, he reached out with his shining, golden palm to grab her neck. If he caught her, he would surely break her neck instantly!
Watching such a critical moment, Long Chen’s heart raced.
Today’s battle was just too exciting.
Was Feng Xuan going to die just like that?
Despite being far away, Long Chen saw the terror in her eyes, which were also filled with regret. It was clear that she had run out of solutions. She had come to this faraway place, yet she had not even gotten her hands on the Ancient Token, and she was going to lose to a Fourth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator?
This was a tragedy!
That was when another twist happened.
Boom!
The ground beneath both of them exploded, throwing soil in all four directions. A black figure shot out of the ground!
This sudden change caused Zhao Wuji to slow down slightly, but this was enough for Feng Xuan to recover enough to use a body combat technique to dodge his attack. Then the black shadow that erupted from the ground shot towards Zhao Wuji!
When the black thing appeared, the stench of blood and rot filled the air and wafted towards Martial Overlord City. The crowd was shocked and started to talk. Some people recognized what it was.
“The Ancient Demon Corpse!” Long Chen was startled. It was not strange for the Ancient Demon Corpse to be here, but it was strange that it had rescued Feng Xuan from Zhao Wuji. Although Feng Xuan had sustained injuries, they were not life-threatening. When given a short time to recover, she was able to run from Zhao Wuji and gradually regain her combat abilities!
“What just happened?”
“Why did Zhao Danchen’s Ancient Demon Corpse attack the Martial Overlord?”
“Yeah. The Martial Overlord would have killed the woman if it hadn’t popped out. What was that about?” The crowd erupted in discussions.
Long Chen was puzzled too.
With the Ancient Demon Corpse’s help, Feng Xuan had successfully fled from Zhao Wuji’s attack. Her face was pale, and she looked very worried. If the Ancient Demon Corpse had arrived just a moment later, she would have been done for. She had not expected Zhao Wuji to use a technique that hurt himself to kill her!
She had almost died.
Thankfully, she was lucky and managed to survive.
She used spiritual medicine to treat her injuries and recovered as fast as she could. She backed out of his attack range while the Ancient Demon Corpse forced Zhao Wuji back. Then the Ancient Demon Corpse retreated to a spot ten meters away from Feng Xuan. That was when Zhao Danchen quickly flew over from far away, appearing in front of the crowd. He stopped next to the Ancient Demon Corpse.
