Chapter 1344: Settling the Dust (2)
January 3rd, 2018
"Oh? Who gave you such blind confidence?"
In the Three Kingdoms world, within Luoyang City!
As these words, filled with mockery, resounded, almost everyone present froze.
Especially when they saw the figure speaking, whether it was Qin Shi Huang or the peerless warrior, they were all dumbfounded. For the person standing before them was none other than Lu Hai Kong, who had just been pierced through the heart.
"What's going on? Wasn't he killed by Xu Fu?"
Instinctively, the two turned to look at the spot where Lu Hai Kong had just been struck down, but what surprised them even more was that Lu Hai Kong, with his pierced heart, was still standing there, making the situation even more perplexing.
Even if they racked their brains, they wouldn't have guessed that Lu Hai Kong's escape from Xu Fu's attack was purely a matter of luck.
When Xu Fu's finger struck, Lu Hai Kong had already prepared to use his last resort, the Phoenix Blood necklace hanging around his neck, to resurrect himself.
However, he couldn't bear to use this trump card and decided to struggle for a moment. Unexpectedly, with the power of Peerless Tyrant, Purple Qi Soaring Dragon Technique, and Substitute Puppet, Lu Hai Kong managed to buy himself one crucial second.
And that one second was extremely vital, for it was during that second that Lu Hai Kong successfully utilized the Taoist talent he obtained after breaking through Level 100 in Politics—External Corporealization!
External Corporealization: Unique-level Taoist Talent
Upon activation, one can split off an incarnation in an extremely short time!
Ps: Talent cooldown period is three months.
Pss: If the incarnation is killed during use, the talent cooldown will be extended by half a year.
These were the attributes of Lu Hai Kong's External Corporealization. In that one second, Lu Hai Kong used External Corporealization, leaving his incarnation in place while he himself avoided Xu Fu's attack.
In fact, Xu Fu was aware of Lu Hai Kong's final move, but it was too late to do anything. The system's punishment arrived in an instant after Xu Fu's attack.
In such a situation, Xu Fu didn't even have time to inform Qin Shi Huang before he was expelled, leading everyone to believe that Lu Hai Kong was dead.
After escaping, Lu Hai Kong also refrained from revealing himself.
He knew that as long as he didn't show up, Qin Shi Huang and the peerless warrior would start fighting each other.
As expected, everything unfolded as Lu Hai Kong had anticipated. Qin Shi Huang and the peerless warrior fought with great enthusiasm after Lu Hai Kong's fall.
Lu Hai Kong watched from the sidelines, waiting until their battle was about to conclude and Qin Shi Huang believed he would be the ultimate victor before stepping forward.
At that moment, Qin Shi Huang's mood plummeted from heaven to hell.
"I said that today, all of you will die!"
As Qin Shi Huang's face paled and his mood darkened, Lu Hai Kong's voice, filled with icy killing intent, echoed once more. With these words, Lu Hai Kong sprang into action.
Brandishing the Savage Wilderness Axe in his hand, Lu Hai Kong stomped his right foot in the air, and the seemingly insubstantial air transformed into a solid ground beneath his foot, emitting a dull thud. Lu Hai Kong then harnessed this force and lunged towards Qin Shi Huang.
As Lu Hai Kong attacked, his companions had not yet arrived, but his means of attack had already reached their target.
Two Primordial Breath Grappling Hands took the initiative, directly grabbing Qin Shi Huang by the hand.
As a Level 100 attack method of the Daoist school, the power of Primordial Breath Grappling Hands was naturally incomparable to the strike of a peerless warrior. This level of attack power was also nowhere near sufficient to defeat Qin Shi Huang.
However, Lu Hai Kong didn't expect Primordial Breath Grappling Hands to be enough to defeat Qin Shi Huang; he only needed to stop him and pull him out!
With the two Primordial Breath Grappling Hands holding him steady, Lu Hai Kong instantly appeared before Qin Shi Huang. In the blink of an eye, Lu Hai Kong gripped his axe, forming an arc, and then unleashed the accumulated power, swinging the axe with ferocious might!
This extreme, violent axe strike was incredibly terrifying. Although Lu Hai Kong's strength was only 120, the power unleashed by this blow was at least around 135, or even stronger!
However, such power was not enough to easily break through Qin Shi Huang's defense. The previous strike by the peerless warrior was weaker than Lu Hai Kong's, but it still failed to defeat Qin Shi Huang.
Sure enough, after Lu Hai Kong's strike landed, it only caused the outermost layer of black light surrounding Qin Shi Huang to flicker slightly.
Seeing his attack blocked, Qin Shi Huang's heart calmed slightly, and he coldly smiled at Lu Hai Kong, saying, "Do you think you can kill me alone? You can't even break through my defense!"
Lu Hai Kong didn't respond verbally but instead continued to wield his Savage Wilderness Axe with renewed vigor!
With the two Primordial Breath Grappling Hands holding Qin Shi Huang in place, Lu Hai Kong relentlessly attacked with his axe!
At first, Qin Shi Huang paid no attention to Lu Hai Kong's struggles. Although the outermost layer of black light surrounding him seemed to be on the verge of collapsing, his defense was still quite formidable, and it was not something that could be easily breached.
More importantly, this layer of protection also had the ability to absorb the enemy's attacks and restore his strength, so Qin Shi Huang wasn't afraid of Lu Hai Kong's relentless chopping.
As Lu Hai Kong launched his frenzied assault, Qin Shi Huang calmly prepared to chat with the peerless warrior.
However, Qin Shi Huang's calmness didn't last long. At that moment, Lu Hai Kong's eyes lit up!
A golden light flashed in Lu Hai Kong's eyes, giving him an air of mystery. What mattered most, however, was that after his eyes lit up, his attack rhythm changed!
Initially, Lu Hai Kong's offense was insignificant to Qin Shi Huang, but when the golden light in his eyes shone, his attacks became deadly.
At this moment, Lu Hai Kong was completely focused on his opponent's weaknesses. Under the golden light, Qin Shi Huang's black light had no place to hide its flaws.
Once the weaknesses were exposed, the layer of black light was no longer an impenetrable defense.
Lu Hai Kong only needed thirteen axe strikes to break through Qin Shi Huang's defense!
"Die!"
With the defense breached, Lu Hai Kong swung his axe down upon Qin Shi Huang, who now wore a look of shock...
