Chapter 843 - Escaping
Chapter 843 – Escaping
“Finger of Destruction!”
When Yang Junshan realized that the person who had launched the sneak attack on him was not the Taoist Ancestor, an indescribable rage followed right after.
The ability that the person who ambushed him from behind shockingly used was the forty-seventh ranked on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking that almost killed him – Terminator Finger!
However, the last time he made a move, it was because of Daoist Qing Yun. It was impossible for Yang Junshan to dodge, and he could only watch helplessly as his heart was shattered from the point of his finger!
And this time, although the person who attacked was also ruthless, he did not have the strength of Ancestor Luo Sai. With Yang Junshan’s Divine Guardian Channels and his Spirit Ranked Vest, as well as his full power flying and dispersing power, in the end, relying on his tyrannical body, he was only injured to the point of injuring his internal organs. Even so, the power of the Finger of Destruction ability could still be clearly seen!
Although Yang Junshan suspected that the person who launched the sneak attack was not the Taoist master, he still had the ability to use the spatial ability. However, Yang Junshan wanted to dismember the person who launched the attack even more.
Xu Tiancheng had originally thought that he would definitely be able to grab the Universe Stone with one finger, but who would have thought that the person in front of him would actually survive the Finger of Destruction? Looking at the cold gaze of the other party, Xu Tiancheng’s heart trembled, but he immediately sneered in contempt, “So he’s just a Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivator!”
“Ling Yizong’s men!”
It was not unexpected for the person to recognize Yang Junshan, as he was also able to identify the person in front of him using the Finger of Destruction. However, the light brown bottle gourd on the person’s waist was even more interesting, “So this is how it is!”
This person was merely at the Supreme Force level, so he naturally could not control spatial abilities. However, this did not mean that the Adept Realm Cultivator was not able to come in contact with spatial abilities, and the flying gourd was one of the best treasures that could allow cultivators below the Taoist Realm to easily grasp part of the spatial abilities, it was precisely because of this treasure that came from the everlasting dense forest, allowing the person to travel through space just like the Taoist patriarch. It was also because the flying gourd also contained Space Source s, that allowed the person to sense the existence of the Universe Stone like Yang Junshan.
Xu Tiancheng was sure that Yang Junshan was only pretending to be calm. After being struck by his Finger of Destruction, even if he used his protective divine ability and his Spirit Qi to block, he was still afraid that he would be burnt out, so he sneered: “Since you recognized the flying bottle gourd, and even know that you won’t be able to escape, give me the Heaven and Earth Stone in your hands and I can consider letting you live!”
Yang Junshan remained unmoved, and asked: “What might your esteemed self be called, are you Elder Ling Yizong or a Successor Disciple?”
“Delay?”
The ridicule on Xu Tiancheng’s face became even stronger, and he taunted: “I’ll let you understand what a ghost is like, I am Ling Yizong’s Successor Disciple, Xu Tiancheng!”
Yang Junshan nodded seriously when he heard this, and said: “You can go and die now!”
“What?” Xu Tiancheng acted as if he had heard some huge joke.
But the moment Yang Junshan finished speaking, Yang Junshan had already unleashed his Shocking Stone Fist!
Xu Tiancheng’s expression changed slightly, the power of the sacred art that Yang Junshan released in an instant did not resemble that of a heavily injured person, but it only caused him to be slightly startled. Xu Tiancheng was still extremely confident in himself, after all, the person in front of him was just a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign, while he himself was a Adept Tai Gang, Ling Yizong’s Adept Tai Gang, an existence lower than the Taoist Ancestor of this world!
An additional wooden staff appeared in Xu Tiancheng’s hand, and with a swipe, countless forest phantoms appeared in front of him, the dense and dense forest branches intertwined together, forming an impenetrable barrier, which was the 207th ranked divine defense technique on the Precious Techniques and Divine Poweranking list, the Myriad Sin Barrier!
However, when Yang Junshan punched downwards, the sound of leaves breaking could be heard, as if the forest wall in front of him truly existed.
Xu Tiancheng’s face revealed an expression of shock once again. His Ten Thousand Barriers Barrier Technique had actually been broken by Yang Junshan with just one punch, which made him finally realize that the person in front of him might not have as serious of an injury as he had imagined. Furthermore, the person in front of him was not an ordinary Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivator!
Although he was surprised that Wan Sen Barrier was broken, Xu Tiancheng did not panic at all. He only lightly waved the wooden staff in his hand, and the originally barrier of trees suddenly turned into a green wave like the sea, and it was actually another Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Wave Surge!
When Yang Junshan’s sacred art broke through the enemy’s Wansen Barrier, it was already at the end of its tether. At this moment, it was being swept up by the roiling waves of the forest and the divine ability was immediately annihilated, the roiling waves of the forest did not stop however, but instead, it directly rushed towards Yang Junshan to counterattack.
Behind Yang Junshan was the Dharma Idol formed from the Sky Splitting Mountain. The surging green wave smashed into pieces in front of him, unable to move Yang Junshan at all.
“Shocking Stone Fist, you are a member of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, are you Zhang Yueming?”
As one of Ling Yizong’s most outstanding Successor Disciples, Xu Tiancheng naturally had good experience, and a sacred art like the Shocking Stone Fist made him think of the Heaven-Shaken Sect at the very first moment. Both sides tested each other with a few divine abilities, but both of them had a rough understanding of each other’s strength, so even though they were afraid of each other, Xu Tiancheng was the first to ask.
Yang Junshan sneered: “Only Heaven-Shaken Sect would know about Shocking Stone Fist?”
Xu Tiancheng immediately seemed to have thought of something, and said: “Or perhaps your surname is Yang?”
Yang Junshan casually moved his feet, laughed out loud, and said: “Who would have thought that I, Yang, would actually be known by Ling Yizong!”
“A sneak attack?”
Xu Tiancheng immediately sensed Yang Junshan’s actions, and laughed coldly: “You can even use such a method. Yang family is indeed an upstart, your divine abilities and techniques reveal a trace of small-mindedness!”
Before Yang Junshan had even activated the Earth-shaking Mountain Tactics, he had already sensed a force from the ground that had also suppressed his Sacred Art and stopped it from moving.
Behind Xu Tiancheng, an enormous tree that reached into the sky took form. Its enormous roots stabbed into the ground, completely suppressing the ground within a radius of several tens of meters. Before Yang Junshan could even use the Earthshaking Mountain Tactics, he had already died.
However, Yang Junshan’s methods had always been intertwined, so Xu Tiancheng immediately realized that he was happy too early …
Mountain Monarch Seal descended from the sky, bringing along an aura that could suppress the heavens and earth!
Xu Tiancheng’s expression was solemn, but he was not flustered. He held the wooden staff high above his head with both hands, and shockingly looked like he was holding it up, while the giant tree behind him also started to gather all the leaves in the air, causing the Mountain Monarch Seal s to be held up in the air, spinning but unable to fall down.
Yang Junshan’s heart sank, this Ling Yizong was truly worthy of his reputation, he knew that he had already used his full strength, but was still unable to do anything to him.
However, Xu Tiancheng was also pressed down by the Mountain Monarch Seal to the point that his face was flushed red. The true inheritances around him were continuously being used to support the Giant Tree Dharma Idol.
Both sides clashed back and forth. After a few rounds, it was clear that they were evenly matched!
The battle between the two seemed to be extremely contentious, with each step taking place in a calculated manner. However, the truth was that several rounds were completed in an extremely short amount of time. Several streaks of light entered their senses from different directions.
Yang Junshan and Xu Tiancheng looked at each other, and then both of them chose to leave at the same time. Both of them seemed to be unwilling to be trapped in a chaotic battle, and although Yang Junshan had obtained a Qiankun stone that made people covet him, the bottle gourd on Xu Tiancheng’s waist was probably even more powerful.
“You also know that I have a flying gourd in my hands, you won’t be able to escape!”
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Tiancheng’s voice came out from beside his ears. He seemed to be determined to obtain the Universe Stone!
Yang Junshan’s face turned gloomy, he snorted, and used all of the light under his feet, and while the people had yet to form a circle, he broke out of the encirclement and left.
It had to be said that Xu Tiancheng’s words had given Yang Junshan a lot of pressure. The Space Splitting Gourd could let him chase after Yang Junshan anytime, and with Xu Tiancheng’s strength, even if he failed his sneak attack, he could still retreat calmly. Yang Junshan was not able to stop him.
As the saying goes, a thief who does not havhousand days of defense. Under the situation where Xu Tiancheng completely grasped the initiative, if Yang Junshan was even slightly careless and got caught, the result might be unimaginable.
In fact, Xu Tiancheng’s attacks were much faster than Yang Junshan expected. Not long after Yang Junshan left the encirclement, a door opened behind him. Xu Tiancheng rushed out, but was blocked by Yang Junshan who was already prepared.
Xu Tiancheng retreated immediately. Before he left, he sneered again: “I already said, you cannot escape. If you do not want to be chased by me like this, you better hand over the Heaven and Earth Stone!”
Yang Junshan’s expression was gloomy, but after Xu Tiancheng opened the spatial door and left, the corners of Yang Junshan’s mouth suddenly raised in a strange arc.
“I’m afraid no one would have thought that this Heaven and Earth Stone would actually be able to capture the spatial fluctuations of the flying gourd!”
The reason why Xu Tiancheng was able to find the Universe Stone was because the flying bottle gourd in his hand contained a Space Source and he could sense that it was of the same origin as the stone. However, Yang Junshan had already put the Universe Stone into his spatial bag earlier on, and Xu Tiancheng had only thought that he had been lucky enough to find the item, but did not know that he was also able to find it by relying on a Space Source.
Just then, when Xu Tiancheng used the flying bottle gourd to suddenly give Yang Junshan a “warning”, he did not know that before this, the Qiankun stone in Yang Junshan’s hand had already captured the minute spatial ripples caused by the flying bottle gourd breaking through the void.
It waity that Xu Tiancheng was not a cultivator of the Daoist world. Although Yang Junshan was not able to rely on the flying gourd to travel through space freely, he was able to sense his approach using the Qiankun stone in advance. It was a pity that Xu Tiancheng was not a Daoist cultivator.
Furthermore, the most crucial point was that Xu Tiancheng still did not know anything about it.
