Chapter 721 - A Crazy Plan
Chapter 721 - A Crazy Plan
The Shapeless Whip’s strongest feature was its invisibility. Everyone, including Long Chen, only saw her fingers lightly curled up, but none of them knew that she was holding something.
The Shapeless Whip was an elementary Emperor-tier Divine Weapon! This was the highest grade of Divine Weapon that Long Chen had ever seen. The Shapeless Whip contained a lot of force inside of it, and Feng Zhilin had used her essence to stimulate the strength within the whip to smack the Profound Golden Soul away.
The Profound Golden Soul flew past the Martial God Tombstone and fell down just behind it.
But no one from the Wind clan nor the other cultivators noticed that. All of them were staring at Feng Zhilin’s Shapeless Whip, the Emperor-tier Divine Weapon.
Even the Gold clan’s Golden Combat Body couldn’t withstand the invisible and powerful Shapeless Whip!
“Die!” Feng Zhilin smiled and her body shifted rapidly. Wind cloaked her before separating and forming three thousand illusions. Her illusions encircled both the elders from the Gold clan completely.
Feng Zhilin’s Three Thousand Illusion was far superior to Feng Xuan’s. Every single illusion was at least at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage. Each of them was as strong as Long Chen! Usually, Jin Xiong and Jin Ba could deal with the illusions together, but Feng Zhilin was now hiding amidst them. A single attack from her would be fatal!
Jin Xiong and Jin Ba were terrified. They had lost their fighting spirit after learning that Feng Zhilin had the Shapeless Whip. Fearing death, both of them quickly surrendered and apologized. “Feng Zhilin, the relationship between the Gold clan and the Wind clan isn’t that bad. There’s no need to kill each other! We admit that we are not your opponents when you have the Shapeless Whip. Remove your Three Thousand Illusions and we will retreat. We will give you the Martial God Tombstone!”
They were old men, but they wanted to survive; they also needed to maintain their honor. Their words were sweet but also disgusting. Everyone frowned when they heard them.
“Feng Zhilin, do you agree or not ... AH!” Jin Xiong wanted her answer, but he shouted in pain. Everyone saw his waist burst open. His Golden Combat Body broke and blood flowed out from a deep gash.
Jin Xiong was in deep pain. The injury inflicted by the Shapeless Whip was not superficial. The energy from the Shapeless Whip penetrated deep and destroyed his body from the inside. His organs were currently being minced!
“Big Brother, what’s wrong?” Jin Ba was worried, but he was being attacked by Feng Zhilin. He staggered forward when a deep gash appeared on his back too.
Both him and Jin Xiong were crying in pain.
The Shapeless Whip’s energy was too strong!
“Big Brother, we need to go all-out! I doubt we would lose to her Three Thousand Illusion if we worked together. She’s just borrowing the strength from the Shapeless Whip! She cannot win against us with her own strength!” Jin Ba shouted in pain.
Both of them decided to go all-out as they stared at their surroundings warily.
“Feng Zhilin, you despicable woman! We’ve already surrendered and yet you didn’t let us go. Don’t blame us for being uncourteous!”Jin Xiong and Jin Ba howled angrily. They used their own techniques to break through the encirclement. Both of them were at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage, so their attacks destroyed the illusions easily. Unfortunately, Feng Zhilin swiftly produced another Three Thousand Illusions.
In terms of essence, Feng Zhilin was not inferior to them!
Her Shapeless Whip was also very hard to dodge. The brothers had their backs facing each other as they fought. Even though the Shapeless Whip was invisible, it produced sound when it ripped through the air. By listening to the sounds, they somehow managed to dodge it.
That was how they managed to buy some time, but it was futile. They knew that they would die here if things dragged on.
Their eyes were seething with hatred. There were at least three gashes on each of their bodies now. The wounds burned and were hard to heal. They had lost a lot of blood and could barely hold on any longer.
“Die!” Feng Zhilin’s cold voice came from the Three Thousand Illusions. Each illusion replicated her voice and stunned both brothers.
“Ah!”
“Argh!”
Both of them were attacked, but Jin Ba’s head was hit by the whip this time. A bloody gash was left on his face. Even though the Golden Combat Body was sturdy, the Shapeless Whip broke through it and caused him to go deaf in one ear from the impact. His right eye also burst open.
It was a gruesome sight.
“Younger brother!” Jin Xiong endured the pain and checked on Jin Ba, who was now left with a single functioning eye and ear. He had been crippled by Feng Zhilin’s attack. The twins were usually hard to differentiate, but now the wound had made it easier for others to know who was Jin Xiong and who was Jin Ba.
“Feng Zhilin, I can’t believe you are this venomous even though you are so young! You fucker!” The brothers, completely enraged, used their trump card to deal with the illusions. The illusions were torn apart rapidly as they fell against the two brothers, but the Shapeless Whip would not fall that easily.
Everyone stared at the intense battle.
They had all acknowledged the princess of the Wind clan.
The Martial God Tombstone and the Profound Golden Soul had been cast aside for now as everyone stared at the intense battle. The Profound Golden Soul was not as valuable as the Shapeless Whip, and the Martial God Tombstone had a different function from the Shapeless Whip. But if the Wind clan did obtain it, the Martial God Tombstone would be almost as valuable as the Shapeless Whip.
Long Chen saw an opportunity when he noticed no one was looking at the Profound Golden Soul. He carefully snuck around and hid the Profound Golden Soul in the Primordial Realm.
His beating heart calmed down a bit when he obtained it. He had been very careful when he made his way behind the Martial God Tombstone. If Feng Zhilin noticed him, a single swing of the whip would be enough to kill him.
Long Chen had a feeling that even grazing the whip would mean the end for him.
He was impressed by the destructive power of the whip, but he was even more impressed by how vicious Feng Zhilin was despite her young age.
She was a terrifying foe!
Long Chen decided to not face off against her before he became stronger.
Feng Zhilin’s battle was so intense that no one wanted to shift their gaze from it. That was why Long Chen managed to snag the Profound Golden Soul.
There was a four hundred meter distance between the Profound Golden Soul and the Martial God Tombstone. After obtaining the Profound Golden Soul, Long Chen stared at the Martial God Tombstone greedily. He decided to risk it and snuck towards the Martial God Tombstone while the battle was still ongoing.
There were two types of people in the world: crazy people and crazier people.
The appearance of the Gold clan had provided Long Chen with a big chance. If he didn't seize it now, he would regret it. Thankfully, he still had Rewind and the third stage of Blood Sacrifice. Long Chen didn’t fear death, but he feared that his strength would stagnate.
Everything was a distraction. Strength was a man’s true measure of worth here.
Jin Xiong and Jin Ba struggled vehemently, but their strength slowly diminished. Even Long Chen could tell that they would soon die under Feng Zhilin’s onslaught.
Long Chen needed to take the Martial God Tombstone before the battle was over!
Thanks to Aunt Snow, the Martial God Tombstone was already on the verge of being loosened. Long Chen intended to hit the Martial God Tombstone with one strong attack to loosen it completely.
He only had one chance. If he succeeded, he could instantly store it in the Primordial Realm. If he failed, the sound from his attack would attract everyone’s attention. Disregarding Feng Zhilin, Aunt Snow and the other Wind clan cultivators would stop him.
He had to escape swiftly the moment he attacked the Martial God Tombstone whether he succeeded or not.
He held his breath and suppressed his essence. He reached a state of near death before he slowly approached the Martial God Tombstone.
Everyone was watching the battle and no one was looking at the back of the Martial God Tombstone. No one noticed a single person slowly approaching it.
Four hundred meters, three hundred meters, two hundred meters, and finally one hundred meters. Long Chen slowly entered the range of the Wind clan when he was around thirty meters away. The closest Wind clan member was just several meters away on the other side of the Martial God Tombstone.
