Chapter 209 Life and Death Crisis
Chapter 209 Life and Death Crisis
The originally dim sky suddenly became as bright as day, as if countless rays of light were pouring down from the sky, instantly illuminating the entire world.
The reason for this astonishing sight was that incredibly powerful attack!
Like two roaring dragons, they swept across the void with overwhelming force, shattering the space in their wake like fragile glass, producing a crisp cracking sound.
With this terrifying destructive power, an enormous shockwave rapidly spread through the air, instantly forming a gigantic mushroom cloud that blotted out the sky.
In the blink of an eye, these two devastating attacks arrived, hurtling straight towards Kuang Zheng in the air.
At this moment, Kuang Zheng was already firmly locked in by Chi Ying's powerful aura. His body was as if it were being pressed down by a giant mountain, and he could not move at all.
As the attack drew ever closer, almost touching his nose, Kuang Zheng could clearly feel the suffocating, intense pressure permeating the air.
At this moment, for the first time in his life, he directly experienced the terrifying power of a level six beast.
This seemingly casual and nonchalant strike contained an unimaginable amount of power.
Kuang Zheng knew very well that if he were to take this blow head-on, he would probably be reduced to dust in an instant, leaving not even a trace behind.
At the critical moment of life and death, Kuang Zheng did not hesitate to mobilize all the spiritual energy in his body and frantically pushed it to its limit.
At the same time, he closed his eyes tightly and rapidly recited the incantation of the "Immortal Steps".
A deep "buzzing" sound rang out, as deafening as a great bell.
Immediately afterwards, Kuang Zheng's figure suddenly became blurry, merging into the surrounding air once again.
The next moment, the two attacks, carrying earth-shattering power, crashed down with a sharp, piercing sound as they tore through the air...
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed through the sky: "Boom!"
The sound was like the earth suddenly cracking open with a bottomless fissure, or like the heavens collapsing and turning upside down in an instant.
With this immense, world-destroying power, the entire world began to tremble and shake violently, as if the end of the world had arrived.
The raging shockwave swept wildly in all directions like a raging torrent, stirring up billowing dust that blotted out the sky.
After the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, everyone looked closely and saw that the place where Kuang Zheng had been standing had become a huge, bottomless pit. It was impossible to see any trace of its original appearance.
What's even more shocking is that the three imposing lords suddenly vanished without a trace, leaving only Noguchi Rei and his men, who were dumbfounded and at a loss.
It turned out that at this critical moment of life and death, Kuang Zheng used all his strength to forcefully activate the "Immortal Steps" technique.
Finally, with her tenacious willpower and profound skill, she managed to break free from Chi Ying's restraints at the last moment.
However, doing so also caused great harm to his own body.
A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted from his mouth, but he didn't care at all and ran away with all his might.
That's a level six beast, its power is naturally far beyond what is ordinary.
At this moment, Kuang Zheng had no time to recuperate and heal his injuries, because any delay would plunge him into dire straits once again.
So, ignoring his injuries, he used all his strength to increase his speed, hoping to escape this dangerous place as soon as possible.
However, the physical trauma he suffered was like a heavy shackle, tightly binding the flow and circulation of spiritual energy within him.
The brief but intense exchange just now was like a greedy beast that devoured a large amount of the treasure's spiritual energy within him.
Nevertheless, Kuang Zheng gritted his teeth and persevered, relying on his tenacious willpower to control the Immortal Steps, and continued flying for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.
However, the spiritual energy within him eventually reached its limit, and he could no longer sustain that intense consumption.
Left with no other choice, Kuang Zheng had to dispel the Immortal Steps.
As the speed suddenly decreased, the oppressive feeling that had been building up in my chest slowly receded like the tide.
This finally gave him a chance to catch his breath, but he knew that time was of the essence and there was no room for delay.
He quickly took out the Spirit Nourishing Pill from his pocket and swallowed it without hesitation.
The pill melted upon entering the mouth, transforming into a cool and soothing medicinal power that instantly spread throughout the body's meridians, beginning to nourish and repair the damaged body and the nearly depleted spiritual energy.
However, just as Kuang Zheng was catching his breath, an unexpected figure suddenly appeared in his sight—the Crimson Shadow had silently blocked his path at some point!
Crimson Shadow, dressed in flowing white robes, appeared like an immortal descending to earth, exuding an extraordinary and unfathomable aura.
At this moment, he was staring at Kuang Zheng, who was breathing heavily and looking somewhat disheveled, with his deep, ocean-like eyes.
A slight smile played on his lips, revealing a half-smile: "Young friend, your repeated departures without saying goodbye are rather impolite...hehe..."
His tone was casual, but the underlying pressure made Kuang Zheng's heart tighten.
Just then, Lei Mang, who appeared to the right of Kuang Zheng, was not as patient and good-tempered as Chi Ying.
His face was full of anger, his eyes were wide, and he pointed a finger straight at Kuang Zheng, cursing without any mercy: "I originally thought you were an upright and honest hero, but who would have thought that you are just a cunning and slippery mudfish!"
You good-for-nothing, what are you running for?
We spent so much time and effort to finally find you.
Do you really think we don't have a backup plan?
"Didn't you think you could get away? Hmph, what a pipe dream! Let me tell you, even if you sprout wings, you won't escape from here today!"
Lei Mang seemed to be venting his anger, but he still didn't let go of the implied meaning behind Zhu Xian's words.
How could Zhu Xian, a cunning old fox himself, not hear the hidden meaning in those words?
However, despite knowing the situation perfectly well, the undeniable truth was that the entire Noguchi Ridge had been thrown into chaos by Kuang Zheng, and he was utterly helpless, forced to watch the situation spiral out of control.
Therefore, although Zhu Xian's anger was burning like a raging fire, he could only forcefully suppress it and dared not utter a single word of complaint.
After all, he knew he was helpless against the powerful Lei Mang.
And so, this pent-up anger, like a flood bursting its banks, was poured out on Kuang Zheng.
Zhu Xian's eyes widened as he glared fiercely at Kuang Zheng, roaring, "Boy, what are you waiting for? Today is your death day!"
With his roar, the three men surrounded Kuang Zheng again.
At this moment, Kuang Zheng was surrounded by enemies and had no way to escape. He was suddenly plunged into an unprecedented crisis.
However, faced with such a dangerous situation, he did not show the slightest fear. Instead, he gripped his weapon tightly and scanned the approaching enemies with unwavering eyes.
So, at this critical juncture, will Kuang Zheng be able to rely on his own strength and wisdom to successfully escape the joint attack meticulously planned by these three lords?
