Chapter 595: Celestial Deity Talisman
September 25, 2017
Even though Lu HaiKong had prepared himself for the most powerful boss from the very beginning, he still couldn't help but be startled when he first laid eyes on Zhang Jiao.
It was inevitable; even Zhang Liang had killed Lu HaiKong twice, and now, with all his cards on the table, Lu HaiKong felt somewhat inadequate when facing Zhang Jiao.
Fortunately, Lu HaiKong's eyes told him that the Zhang Jiao before him was not his true body, and his condition didn't seem to be very good either.
Zhang Jiao's Clone
Identity: Final Boss of the Tranquility Secret Realm
Weakened State
Intelligence: 95 (???)
Strategy: 95 (???)
Talent: ???
"Damn, is this really a clone? Is this really a weakened state?"
When Lu HaiKong saw this clone of Zhang Jiao, he couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp. A weakened state with dual attributes of 95, if this was his full strength, what kind of freak would he be?
Upon seeing this guy's attributes, Lu HaiKong instinctively picked up Zhang Yan once again and retreated several dozen meters before setting her down.
"We've come all this way, it's time to use whatever trump cards you have. Otherwise, we might be stuck here."
After putting Zhang Yan down, Lu HaiKong protected her behind him and faced Zhang Jiao, keeping Zhang Yan out of sight.
Without a word, Zhang Yan took out three talismans from her bosom, sticking one on Lu HaiKong's back, one on his battle axe, and one on his head.
As the three talismans were applied, they all vanished, and at the same time, Lu HaiKong felt three forces acting upon his body.
Just as Zhang Yan finished applying the talismans to Lu HaiKong, the clone of Zhang Jiao approached them.
"So, you're Lu HaiKong?"
Upon hearing this, both Lu HaiKong and Zhang Yan were stunned. Lu HaiKong's gaze intensified, only to find that the attributes of the Zhang Jiao before him had become blurry.
"Don't bother looking, I know what you're thinking. Yes, it's me in person."
Zhang Jiao waved his hand lightly, causing Lu HaiKong to feel a stinging sensation in his eyes, forcing him to close them involuntarily.
However, the stinging sensation in his eyes was not a big deal. The real issue was that the clone, who was supposed to be weakened, had suddenly transformed into his true self, which was a bit of a letdown.
"I've long heard of Zhang Heavenly Master's divine Dao Law, and today's encounter proves his reputation."
Lu HaiKong opened his bloodshot eyes, speaking these words, but his mind raced, thinking of ways to deal with the situation.
Lu HaiKong was well aware that Zhang Jiao's strength was formidable, and it would be challenging to match him. Zhang Jiao's power didn't require any aura or the like; just standing there made one feel as if they were gazing into an abyss.
"I've also heard much about you, and I've wanted to meet you for a long time. It's just that there was never an opportunity, and I never expected that we would meet here, and with my daughter, no less."
Upon hearing these words, Lu HaiKong was startled and turned to glance at Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan nodded, confirming Zhang Jiao's words, but her expression remained grave.
"There's no need to look; she doesn't know I'm here, and I didn't intentionally lure you here. I just happened to know you were coming, so I've been waiting here early on."
At this moment, Zhang Jiao's attitude was peculiar. According to reason, after Lu HaiKong had killed his two brothers in Guangping, Zhang Jiao should have wanted to kill him on the spot. Now that they had met, he should have directly attacked and killed this brother-killer without a word.
However, not only did Zhang Jiao not do that, but his attitude was also strangely calm.
Of course, regardless of Zhang Jiao's calm attitude, Lu HaiKong maintained his vigilance and didn't relax at all.
"Wait for me? Zhang Heavenly Master specifically waited here for me, yet I don't feel honored at all. I wonder if Zhang Heavenly Master has any good intentions towards me?"
As Lu HaiKong spoke, he tightly gripped his battle axe, his inner strength surging, and his muscles tensed, ready to engage in battle at any moment.
Lu HaiKong didn't believe that Zhang Jiao would have any good intentions towards him, a brother-killer.
"Relax, I mean no harm. I just want to ask for a small favor."
As Zhang Jiao spoke, he moved closer to Lu HaiKong, and by the time he finished speaking, he was already ten meters away from Lu HaiKong.
A sense of heart palpitations swirled within Lu HaiKong, and he couldn't quite pinpoint the source of this feeling. However, it didn't hinder Lu HaiKong from making his move.
Regardless of Zhang Jiao's attitude towards Lu HaiKong, in Lu HaiKong's mind, he considered Zhang Jiao an enemy.
Given this, the situation was straightforward for Lu HaiKong. Since Zhang Jiao was an enemy, he would simply kill him!
As Zhang Jiao approached within ten meters of Lu HaiKong, purple aura surged around Lu HaiKong's body, and he charged directly at Zhang Jiao, raising his battle axe high and preparing to split Zhang Jiao in half with a single blow.
"No!"
Seeing this, Zhang Yan was shocked and tried to stop Lu HaiKong, but it was already too late.
In the blink of an eye, Lu HaiKong reached Zhang Jiao, and his battle axe descended swiftly. Just as Lu HaiKong's axe fell, his movements suddenly froze, and his entire body came to a halt, stopping just ten centimeters in front of Zhang Jiao.
Lu HaiKong couldn't quite explain what had happened. He possessed immense strength, yet he couldn't get close to Zhang Jiao, let alone take a step.
"It's useless. Every blade of grass and every tree here was created by me. No one can defy me here, but rest assured, I won't harm you. I just need a small favor from you."
As Zhang Jiao spoke, he extended a hand towards Lu HaiKong.
It was an ordinary hand, and Lu HaiKong couldn't discern anything special about it. But as it reached out, a nameless fear rose within him.
At that moment, Lu HaiKong unleashed all his strength.
【Purple Qi Rising】【Unmatched Tyrant】【Savage Force】【Serpent Dragon Power】
Lu HaiKong even considered using items, but at that moment, he found himself unable to do anything. He could only allow Zhang Jiao to gently tap his forehead.
As Zhang Jiao's finger touched Lu HaiKong's forehead, he instantly lost consciousness...
...
In the final chamber of the Realm of Heavenly Peace, Lu HaiKong's consciousness instantly cleared. He looked at Zhang Jiao behind him in astonishment.
In the chamber, there was a book with the number 16191 written on it.
Despite knowing that there would be a powerful boss in this chamber, Lu HaiKong was surprised to find that it was Zhang Jiao.
"Damn, is this really a clone? Is this really his weakened state?"
"Hey, we're here now. It's time to play your trump card. Otherwise, we'll be stuck here."
Time seemed to reset, and Lu HaiKong and Zhang Yan returned to their original state upon entering the chamber.
At this moment, Lu HaiKong seemed to have forgotten what he had just experienced.
The memory of seeing Zhang Jiao's true form was as if it had been forcibly removed from Lu HaiKong's mind.
Neither Lu HaiKong nor Zhang Yan noticed this, as they were fully focused on preparing to face the suddenly appearing Zhang Jiao clone boss.
"Weird, where did the three talismans I prepared go?"
Facing the Zhang Jiao clone, Zhang Yan took out her most precious item, but she couldn't find the three talismans she had just used on Lu HaiKong.
Zhang Yan confirmed that those three talismans were definitely on her person, but now they were suddenly missing.
The Zhang Jiao clone didn't give Zhang Yan and Lu HaiKong time to think. After Lu HaiKong retreated with Zhang Yan, just as he had done before, the Zhang Jiao clone initiated its attack.
Zhang Jiao raised his hands, and a handful of beans were thrown out.
"Bean Sprout Soldiers again?" Lu HaiKong exclaimed.
As Lu HaiKong spoke, the beans landed on the ground and grew instantly, transforming into Yellow Turban Warriors, each over three meters tall. There were at least several hundred of them.
Lu HaiKong's eyes narrowed, and the attributes of the Yellow Turban Warriors appeared before him.
Yellow Turban Warrior (Dao Law Divine Armament)
Ability: 60
Heavenly: Immortal
Seeing this, Lu HaiKong was slightly concerned. He wasn't afraid of these warriors with a strength of 60, but with Zhang Yan behind him, the situation was tricky. He wasn't confident he could protect Zhang Yan while defeating Zhang Jiao under the watch of these warriors.
Just then, Zhang Yan stuck a talisman on Lu HaiKong's body.
"Instead of pretending to worry about me, why don't you think about how to defeat that Zhang Jiao clone? I'm not a burden yet, and I've used my most precious item for you. You have to help me get the Peaceful Heavenly Scripture!"
As Zhang Yan spoke, Lu HaiKong felt the talisman on his chest grow hot. A powerful force flowed into his body.
Seizing the moment before the talisman disappeared, Lu HaiKong stared at it, and its attributes appeared before his eyes.
Celestial Deity Talisman
Talisman Quality: Legendary
Creator: Zhang Yan
Talisman Description: A talisman with a success rate below one-thousandth. Many can only create one or two in their lifetime.
Talisman Effect: Increases the user's strength by one-tenth for 30 minutes.
"One-tenth of my strength?"
Lu HaiKong's eyes widened as he saw the talisman's attributes. At the same time, the talisman on his body completely burned away, and his strength surged to 99 points.
Feeling the powerful force within him, Lu HaiKong sighed.
"Ugh, I hate cheating!"
Hearing Lu HaiKong's words, Zhang Yan's face turned cold. Apparently, using someone's trump card wasn't free.
