Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1197 - 624 Certain Victory_2

Chapter 1197 -624 Certain Victory_2

That instant, a violent explosion rippled through the interior and exterior of the canyon.

At the same time, a surge of fire soared into the sky, illuminating the entire gorge.

In that sea of flames, most of the energy from the attack was absorbed by Luo Xiao’s Defense Treasure, yet a portion of energy still penetrated the Defense Treasure, spreading throughout Luo Xiao’s body and his internal organs.

At that moment, Luo Xiao experienced an unprecedented intense pain.

It felt as if he was being sliced by a thousand blades, causing one to tremble inside out, from the physical to the mental plane.

Moreover, this torturous sensation lasted for a while.

By the time he was almost numb, he started to feel some signs of relief.

It was also at this time that peace returned to the world, and everything was restored to its original state.

When Luo Xiao opened his eyes, he saw that he had been blown back a hundred yards and finally came to a stop after crashing into a mountaintop.

Around him, there were traces of fresh blood in several places.

He first checked inside his body and found that his internal organs had been damaged, along with various meridians suffering different degrees of injury.

His current condition was significantly worse compared to before.

Clearly, his injuries were becoming more severe, and his strength had also been greatly reduced.

By now, he no longer possessed his initial confidence, nor did he have that spirited momentum.

Feeling these changes, Luo Xiao knew that he had underestimated Lin Tianhu’s strength.

Besides, he was even more aware that his own situation was not optimistic.

However, even with this understanding, the current situation left him no time to think.

Because Lin Tianhu’s attacks, as fluid as flowing water, were coming at him once again.

And this time, the attack was even more fierce and swift, a total onslaught as if aiming for his life.

In his haste, Luo Xiao tried to move to a safe distance.

However, his injuries were too severe, and his mana was entirely depleted, causing his movement technique to slow down significantly.

In such a state, evading Lin Tianhu’s attack was extremely difficult.

As a result, Luo Xiao had only leaped dozens of yards when Lin Tianhu’s attack was already overhead, mere yards away from his head.

At that moment, it was too late for Luo Xiao to dodge or to use a Defense Treasure to shield himself.

In that instant, Luo Xiao could feel the sharp aura of the blade above his head and the breath of death even more so.

Facing such a desperate situation, Luo Xiao’s face turned ashen, already foreseeing what would happen next.

Then, in the next instant, Luo Xiao felt a chill on his neck, followed by a loss of sensation and consciousness.

At this moment, Lin Tianhu and Liang Zhuoying could see Luo Xiao’s head flying off in their line of sight.

As for his body, it fell from mid-air and landed heavily on the ground, stirring up dust.

When everything came to a stop, Liang Zhuoying, seeing the scene unfold before him, was instantly overjoyed.

For a moment, his originally pallid complexion was replaced by an excited smile.

Not just him, Lin Tianhu was also bursting with happiness, feeling a great load lifted from his shoulders.

He was clear in his mind that with Luo Xiao’s death, the other two could no longer pose a threat to them.

In this way, the crisis was largely resolved, and one could say that victory was assured.

Next, as long as they killed the remaining two, this great battle would come to a complete end, and all crises would evaporate like mirages.

Knowing this, Lin Tianhu’s fighting spirit surged again with Luo Xiao’s demise.

“Haha… This fellow Daoist is truly formidable!”

Liang Zhuoying laughed excitedly, unable to help but praise him.

At that time, the other two battle groups on the other side, upon hearing the noise, also took the opportunity to look over during a lull in their attacks and defenses.

When Xie Xiong and Cao Yunshan saw Luo Xiao’s body torn apart and his breath fade from the air, their faces turned ashen, consumed with horror.

In that instant, they were dumbfounded for the length of a breath.

At this critical juncture, Liang Zhuoshi and Lin Tianfeng, who were fighting with them, launched a sudden attack.

“Boom…”,

In a flash, three different attacks burst forth, the powerful fluctuations sweeping over like surging waves.

Their speed was incredibly fast, exploiting Xie Xiong and Cao Yunshan’s momentary daze to unleash an unprecedented strike.

It was only then that Xie Xiong and Cao Yunshan were jolted by the disturbance, awakening from their astonishment.

When they turned towards their respective adversaries, the attacks were already bearing down from above their heads.

In that moment, Xie Xiong and Cao Yunshan felt the intense fluctuations of the close-ranged assault, their complexions turning deathly pale as cold sweat trickled down their backs.

It was not that they lacked composure, but rather the attack from Lin Tianfeng and the others had already arrived during their moment of shock.

Though this lapse was brief, merely a breath’s time,

Under normal circumstances, for a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, a breath’s time wouldn’t be considered short.

However, for a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, a breath’s time is enough to accomplish a great deal.

More so, in a life-or-death battle, a breath’s time could often decide one’s fate.

In fact, this notion was partially proven on the battlefield at hand.

Because by the time Xie Xiong had regained their wits, Lin Tianfeng and the others together with Liang Zhuoshi had delivered their attack.

At this time, their premeditated assault came swiftly and with unerring precision, as if they had timed it perfectly.

Just as Xie Xiong tried to dodge, they realized the close-proximity attack was unavoidable.

Consequently, they could only respond with defensive maneuvers.

However, Cao Yunshan was already at a disadvantage under the combined assault of Lin Tianfeng and Sun Ling’er, teetering on the brink of collapse from the ongoing battle.

He had suffered significant injuries, his strength diminished as a result.

Now, facing such an attack, Cao Yunshan lacked the time to dodge, not even able to fully deploy his defenses.

Under these circumstances, just as Cao Yunshan’s Defense Treasure began to spread, Lin Tianfeng’s and his companion’s attack descended first.

In the next instant, Cao Yunshan felt a piercing pain.

When he lowered his head to look, realizing his body wouldn’t obey and his consciousness was fading,

Soon, Cao Yunshan lost his last thread of awareness.

At this moment, Cao Yunshan’s life came to an end, marking the closure of a Golden Core Expert’s journey.

And in the very moment of Cao Yunshan’s fall, on another part of the battlefield, Xie Xiong was facing a similar predicament.

Except Xie Xiong seemed to be somewhat stronger than Cao Yunshan.

Moreover, his opponent, Liang Zhuoshi, had sustained some injuries earlier, and the exhaustion from a prolonged pursuit was not insignificant, thereby giving Xie Xiong the upper hand throughout the fight.

Now, facing Liang Zhuoshi’s unexpected strike, though Xie Xiong could not escape, his defensive treasure was perfectly in place just as the attack descended a few zhang above his head.

It was precisely because of this defense that he narrowly escaped this calamity at the critical moment.

However, even though he survived the deathblow, the full-force assault from Liang Zhuoshi still left him grievously wounded.

Upon steadying himself, Xie Xiong discovered his Qi-Blood churning wildly, with many of his meridians broken.

For a while, he spat out several mouthfuls of Essence Blood, his breath rapidly weakening.

After somewhat recuperating, Xie Xiong looked around to find that among the four who had come, only he was left alive.

This scene deeply shocked Xie Xiong.
