Chapter 271: Entering the Home Field, Slaughter!
Chapter 271: Entering the Home Field, Slaughter!
At the center of the desolate island, the wind and snow raged even more fiercely. The barren island, devoid of any greenery, was battered by the harsh winds.
On the battlefield, the ground was littered with fallen trees, and the once-white snow had turned black from the dirt beneath.
Jiang Ning glanced at the Wind Divine Messenger in his Six-Armed Divine Descendant form. As he moved, a roar echoed through the air.
In the eyes of the two, Jiang Ning seemed to transform into a raging tiger engulfed in flames, charging towards the Six-Armed Divine Descendant.
The tiger's roar reverberated through the clouds. With his incredible speed, he left behind a trail of fiery waves.
"This fist technique seems to have improved slightly since the beginning!" A thousand meters away, Star Guardian witnessed this scene and was secretly startled by the visible improvement in Jiang Ning's skills.
The rapid progress visible to the naked eye left him in awe.
At the same time, the Six-Armed Divine Descendant, in his Wind Divine Messenger form, saw the fiery waves rushing towards him. He unleashed a series of punches, blocking the fire tiger's forehead, eyes, and chest.
The fist technique broke through the defenses of his spiritual world, and the image was reflected in his mind.
At this moment, Jiang Ning appeared as a fire tiger in his eyes.
The image projected by the fist technique remained unbroken in his mind.
Even though he knew that the fire tiger was an illusion, when he struck out, his strength was still slightly weaker.
The next moment, a loud boom reverberated from the point of impact, and a visible wave of energy spread out.
The energy wave swept away the falling snow in the air and the snow, stones, and dead branches on the ground.
Facing Jiang Ning's full power and the immense impact of his speed, even the Wind Divine Messenger in his Six-Armed Divine Descendant form couldn't easily withstand the blow.
The powerful impact instantly tore through the wrinkled, bark-like skin on his fist bones, revealing three small wounds the size of fingernails.
Through these wounds, one could clearly see the layer of bones beneath his skin.
The bones were crystal clear, translucent, and had a jade-like quality.
The two combatants separated after a brief clash.
Jiang Ning retreated backward to dissipate the powerful recoil.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
The Wind Divine Messenger in his Six-Armed Divine Descendant form stumbled backward, shattering the rocks beneath the soil and creating a series of loud thuds.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
The wounds on his fist, where the bones were exposed, not only failed to heal quickly but were rapidly spreading up his arm.
In an instant, the wounds expanded, and the flesh on his fist began to disappear.
He realized that there was a force between his fists that was erasing his flesh and preventing the wounds from healing.
On the other side, Jiang Ning backed away several meters and observed the expanding wounds on the Six-Armed Divine Descendant's fist.
A surge of joy filled his heart.
"It works!!!"
Before he had activated the Waterfire Essence Energy, he had also caused minor injuries to the Wind Divine Messenger in his Six-Armed Divine Descendant form.
Just as before, when their fists collided, the skin on the Six-Armed Divine Descendant's fist was torn, revealing the bones beneath.
Such injuries would heal instantly, even for someone with an immortal body like the Six-Armed Divine Descendant, let alone Jiang Ning.
But this time was different.
With the activation of the Waterfire Essence Energy, it entered his body and began to grind away at the Six-Armed Divine Descendant's flesh and blood, causing the wounds to expand.
"Since it works, I'll take advantage of his weakness!" Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed with determination.
In an instant, he unleashed his full speed.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A series of loud booms echoed through the air.
In the face of Jiang Ning's terrifying speed, the Six-Armed Divine Descendant could only passively endure the onslaught.
Soon, numerous expanding wounds appeared on his body.
The Waterfire Essence Energy lingered within him, acting like a grinding wheel, constantly erasing his flesh and blood and preventing their regeneration.
As soon as the budding flesh attempted to heal, the remaining Waterfire Essence Energy would grind it away.
After several dozen breaths, Jiang Ning came to a halt, exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, his breathing becoming rapid.
"The Divine Descendant is so hard to kill!" he thought to himself.
Despite his fierce offensive, the Six-Armed Divine Descendant remained intact.
There were more than a dozen wounds of varying sizes, each spanning several centimeters.
However, these injuries were still minor for the Six-Armed Divine Descendant, who stood over three meters tall with a waist as wide as a water barrel.
These wounds were insignificant.
Moreover, as the Waterfire Essence Energy dissipated from some wounds, the Divine Descendant's powerful vitality and self-healing abilities instantly healed them.
In other words, even if Jiang Ning continued his assault for days and nights without any other variables, it would still be challenging to kill the Six-Armed Divine Descendant.
On the other side, the Wind Divine Messenger slowly lowered his arms that had been protecting his head.
He grinned, revealing a cruel glint in his pitch-black eyes.
"Are you tired?"
"Is it my turn now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud boom resounded.
The Six-Armed Divine Descendant's feet sent stones flying, and the earth beneath him erupted as he charged towards Jiang Ning like a cannonball.
His massive body generated a terrifying wave of energy.
The accumulated snow around him was swept up by his energy wave.
Jiang Ning turned and ran at the sight of the Six-Armed Divine Descendant's form.
The Wind Divine Messenger wasn't wrong; such an intense battle had indeed exhausted him.
Moreover, he realized that the only option left was to use his final method.
Before that, he needed to enter the water to restore his state and return to his peak condition.
Currently, his inner breath was depleted, his stamina was half-spent, and his entire body felt fatigued.
Especially his muscles, after consecutive full-power bursts, he felt his muscles were exhausted, and he could only barely exert nine-tenths of his strength.
If he continued to fight, he would gradually fall into a state of complete exhaustion.
"Trying to escape?!"
As Jiang Ning turned and left, the Wind Deity Messenger, transformed into the six-armed Divine Descendant, let out a sinister laugh.
He moved, and immediately gave chase.
Suddenly—
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
The sound of breaking through the air came from behind Jiang Ning, stirring up a series of sonic booms.
Every fragment of stone that passed through the air left a visible trail of white mist.
This was a typical sonic boom cloud.
The appearance of the sonic boom cloud was only when an object's speed approached the speed of sound or broke through the sound barrier.
Obviously, the stones flying towards Jiang Ning were already very close to the speed of sound.
The next moment.
Jiang Ning dodged repeatedly without even a glance back.
His dodging movements caused his speed to drop sharply.
The six-armed Divine Descendant behind him couldn't help but smile.
He had just been fighting with Jiang Ning, waiting for him to become exhausted.
In his six-armed Divine Descendant state, he felt no fatigue and would not tire.
In his opinion, even if Jiang Ning was a strong fighter with great speed.
Everything depended on stamina.
Once exhausted, the balance would shift in his favor.
The gap between him and Jiang Ning would widen, and Jiang Ning would lose the qualification to fight him, and his speed would also greatly decrease.
The offense and defense would switch again, and it would return to his domain.
As long as he kept pursuing, relying on long-range attacks, he could wear Jiang Ning down.
Moreover, the distance from this place to the lakeshore of Luo Shui County was far enough to give him ample time.
On the other side.
A thousand meters away.
Star Guardian watched the scene on the deserted island with a frown.
"The Wind Deity Messenger is fighting so hard; it seems like the divine command is a death order!"
On the deserted island.
Jiang Ning kept dodging the attacks coming from behind.
With six arms and four legs, the Wind Deity Messenger in his Divine Descendant state had enough limbs to attack Jiang Ning while pursuing him.
With his current strength, he could casually kick the stones on the ground, causing them to fly and initially create a sonic boom.
The kinetic energy of these high-speed projectiles was terrifying, and even Jiang Ning dared not block them with his physical body.
He could only keep dodging.
Behind him, along with the stones blasting out from the ground, there were also rocks that the six-armed Divine Descendant occasionally slapped with his arms or threw, including hundred-pound boulders.
Jiang Ning could only keep dodging left and right.
Under the coverage of his mental power field, every movement behind him was clearly reflected in his mind.
No matter how dense the stones coming from behind were, he could easily dodge them.
A moment later.
One chasing, one fleeing.
Jiang Ning returned to the cliff he had just been at.
The next moment.
Without hesitation, he leaped off the cliff.
As he adjusted his posture in mid-air and exerted force again.
Boom—
The ice shattered, and he sank straight into the water.
The splash reached several zhang high.
As soon as he entered the water, Jiang Ning felt like everything had returned to normal.
His greatly exhausted body felt like a parched desert receiving the nourishment of raindrops.
A sense of comfort spread throughout his body.
He instantly felt his depleted stamina rapidly recovering, and his tired and powerless muscles regaining vitality.
His empty dantian was also constantly replenishing his inner breath.
On the cliff.
The Wind Deity Messenger in his six-armed Divine Descendant state arrived at the edge of the cliff.
"Entering the water?" The Wind Deity Messenger said, "I'm not at all weak in water!"
Then, without hesitation, he also leaped off the cliff.
On the other side.
Star Guardian watched this scene, and his eyebrows furrowed.
With both of them in the water, he couldn't observe the situation anymore.
"Should I leave or stay?"
He immediately fell into hesitation and indecision.
Underwater.
The Wind Deity Messenger in his six-armed Divine Descendant state had just entered the icy cold lake water when he saw Jiang Ning's figure.
"I've found you!"
He smiled slightly.
His six arms and four legs instantly stirred the lake water.
The powerful force made him surge forward like an arrow towards Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning felt the approaching presence behind him, and his body moved slightly, and he swam in the water like a fish.
For ordinary people, the resistance of water is much greater than that of air.
Moreover, it is difficult to move and exert force in the water, and the speed compared to land is significantly reduced.
But for Jiang Ning, it was different.
With six times the water affinity.
He could easily move with the water's momentum, and his speed was still frighteningly fast.
Not to mention that his water manipulation technique had already transformed and transcended, and being in the water was truly his domain, where he was at his best.
"No hurry!"
Jiang Ning smiled as he saw the six-armed Divine Descendant catching up behind him. Arriving at his domain, his mindset instantly relaxed.
Behind him, the six-armed Divine Descendant moved all six arms and all four legs.
But he found that he couldn't close the distance with Jiang Ning.
"Such incredible speed!"
"No wonder he chose to escape into the lake!"
"But swimming in the water consumes more stamina than on land!"
"How long can he last?"
Soon after.
Star Guardian on the ice frowned as he saw the black shadow appear in the water again.
"The Wind Deity Messenger is back?"
"Why are they circling around under my feet?!"
He had a bad premonition.
Under the ice.
"Almost there!"
Jiang Ning clenched his fist and instantly felt that all his previous exhaustion had been fully recovered.
His spirit was high.
His qi and blood were abundant.
The vast Inner Breath within his body surged like a river, rippling through his Dantian.
Not a trace of fatigue remained in his muscles.
"It's time to end this!" He glanced back with a calm gaze.
In an instant, a spiritual weapon appeared in his hand, a blade named Dragon Abyss.
The blade was imbued with a spirit, brimming with spirituality, hence its classification as a spiritual weapon.
After testing all his martial arts, Jiang Ning realized that his most formidable killing technique was this blade and the Firewood Splitting Blade Art, which he had broken through six limits."
The Firewood Splitting Blade Art seemed simple, with only one move, the 'Splitting Chop.'
But after breaking through the limits six times, he had already mastered the blade aura and, even before reaching the fifth limit, he had further broken through to the sixth.
The sixth limit allowed his blade aura to undergo a further transformation.
He could now influence reality and harness the power of heaven and earth.
Unlike the fist formation, which could only reflect in others' minds and intimidate their spirits, the blade aura had reached a deeper level.
Although he wasn't fully informed about the secrets of 'aura,' based on his own understanding and verification of his martial arts, he confirmed this.
Fist formation and blade aura, though both 'auras,' differed in their depth.
According to his own experience, the blade aura had reached a more profound level, a step further.
It could influence reality and harness the power of heaven and earth, a more advanced and powerful technique than the fist formation.
Moreover, the spiritual weapon in his hand, nourished daily with blood, was indestructible.
Jiang Ning believed that even if the Wind Deity Messenger's injuries healed rapidly due to his six-armed divine descendant state, he could still defeat him.
With this blade, a deeper level of blade aura than the fist formation, and the indestructible spiritual weapon, they complemented each other.
If the six-armed divine descendant were cut into dozens of pieces, he wouldn't believe that he couldn't kill him!
With this in mind, Jiang Ning raised his blade and looked back at the six-armed divine descendant.
"Not running away?"
The six-armed divine descendant was slightly startled, his gaze piercing through the clear lake water and landing on Jiang Ning's hand.
A blade?
At that moment, Jiang Ning moved.
In an instant, carefully considered reasons.
He appeared a few zhang away, in front of the Wind Deity Messenger in his six-armed divine descendant state, just over ten feet away.
"So fast!"
His heart skipped a beat.
The next moment, he saw nothing but darkness all around.
Suddenly, a blade's glow cut through the darkness.
It was the only light in the darkness, a dazzling, brilliant blade glow.
"This..."
The six-armed divine descendant was startled, his heart filled with terror.
"Run!!!"
This was the only thought in his mind.
In that dazzling blade glow, he felt an unprecedented fear.
Blade aura!
This was the second level of blade aura!!
Impossible to fight against!
Impossible to resist!
If it were the first level of aura reflecting in one's mind, he could face it without fear, relying on his immortal body to fight.
But against the second level of aura, he had only one thought: to escape!
This level of aura could influence reality and exhibit unparalleled killing power.
Especially this pure and focused blade aura, primarily for killing.
This blade could split him open.
However, as he moved, he felt something amiss.
The lake water above and below seemed to have turned into a muddy swamp, restricting his actions.
Boom!
He exerted force with his six arms, just managing to disperse the water around him.
Immediately, he felt a piercing pain.
The blade glow descended from above, nearly splitting him in half.
"What a resilient physical body!"
Jiang Ning looked at the clear blade mark from his head to his lower abdomen, feeling secretly surprised.
This blade, when it slashed through the six-armed divine descendant's flesh, gave him a strong sense of resistance.
Unlike the previous feeling of cutting through tofu, it was like cutting through a wooden barrel filled with sand.
So, this blade didn't completely split him in half from head to tail.
Watching the meat buds stretching from the wound, rapidly healing his body, Jiang Ning unleashed his blade aura again.
At the same time, the Wind Deity Messenger saw the blade glow suddenly appearing in the endless darkness.
His heart sank into despair.
Pfft!
The long blade descended, following the previous blade mark, and split him in half again.
"Not enough!" Sensing the vitality still present before him, Jiang Ning unleashed his blade aura once more, slashing towards his thick neck.
In the face of the incredibly sharp spiritual weapon and the second level of blade aura, even a jade bone would be severed.
At this moment, as his third blade descended, the originally bisected head was instantly cleaved off, and large splashes of black blood fell into the lake.
It was like ink pouring into the lake, continuously spreading and staining the water.
"It's finally over!"
Sensing the vitality of the six-armed divine descendant gradually fading, Jiang Ning heaved a sigh of relief.
For the first time, he truly understood how difficult it was to kill the six-armed divine descendant.
The description of an immortal body was not an exaggeration.
If not for the spiritual weapon in his hand and the blade aura reaching the second level, he wouldn't have been able to kill the six-armed divine descendant with his other techniques.
Without either of these two factors, achieving this feat would have been difficult.
Through this battle, Jiang Ning understood even more.
How crucial it was to have a suitable weapon!
If not for the spiritual weapon in his hand, even with the blade aura, it would have been challenging to achieve such a feat.
He looked up at the sky.
"It's your turn!"
"Now, it's my domain!"
"Let's see what you've got!!!
