Before Patriarch of Law Enforcement could finish his words, the situation changed drastically. Lu Li waved his hands, causing all the dragons of wind to collapse. Then, all the Feather Wind came and gathered around Ji Zhantian with intimidating force.
Ji Zhantian’s Profound Meaning indeed could freeze space and slow down warriors’ various attacks. But this Profound Meaning had proven to be ineffective for regular Feather Wind, which was not slowed down at all.
“Hmm, Ji Zhantian, you have walked into this trap all by yourself.” Lu Li’s scorn was heard all over the city. Waving his hands, he yelled, “Dragons of wind, now!”
The collapsing and coming together of dragons of wind were all controlled by Lu Li in his mind. A large amount of Feather Wind had encircled Ji Zhantian. With a wave of his hands, Lu Li integrated many strands of Feather Wind together into dragons of wind. Those dragons of wind formed even larger ones until they grew to one giant silver dragon!
“How…”
Ji Zhantian knew something was going to happen when he found himself surrounded by Feather Wind. Now, it was clear to him that Lu Li had deliberately let him in. At this moment, Ji Zhantian was hesitating. Should he advance or leave?
Advancing might cost his life. But was there anywhere he could run to?
In a fight between warriors like them, one second was enough to determine life or death. Ji Zhantian had paused for one second. Whether he wanted to advance or leave, it was too late. When he was first surrounded by the dragons of wind, he didn’t think much of it. But as the silver dragon came into being, he started to feel the tingling pain in his soul. The powerful soul attack in the Feather Wind had started to strike his Core of Soul.
“Run—”
Ji Zhantian panicked. He could feel soul attacks coming from all directions. He tried his best not to place his hands behind his head or to howl. He sped up to the maximum, eager to get away.
“You want to run now? It is too late~”
Lu Li sneered with contempt. He moved quickly and the dragons of wind took shape rapidly. They span around Ji Zhantian, spreading soul attacks ferociously into the Core of his Soul.
“Come on!”
Ji Zhantian clenched his teeth. Quite quickly, he threw a pellet into his mouth. His eyes were red, and vines popped out on his face. He swung the Originator Artifact and hacked toward Lu Li with great effort in an attempt to distract Lu Li to create a chance to escape.
“Whoosh~”
Instead of a beast phantom, a stream of sword power came out. The sword power could not do much but the one trait it had was its speed. In a split second, the sword power had reached Lu Li’s forehead.
“Wicked Bead!”
The bead in Lu Li’s hand enlarged and shielded in front of him. He did wear a Quasi Relic armor and his physical body was strong, but the sword power from the Originator Artifact was not something he could underestimate.
“Bang~”
The sword power landed on the Wicked Bead. But it did not nudge the bead, not even a bit. The bead just let out light, then it quieted down.
Lu Li kept his focus on Ji Zhantian and created more and more silver dragons. Lu Li did not believe that Ji Zhantian’s soul could be so strong as to stand constant soul attacks.
“Ah—”
Ji Zhantan screamed in pain. His facial expressions were twisted. Waving the Originator Artifact like crazy, he unleashed one beast phantom after another, trying to shatter all the silver dragons around him so that he could have a chance to run for his life.
Phantoms of beasts poured out. They could neutralize part of the silver dragon’s energy. The soul attack carried in some silver dragons receded immediately.
“Hmm!”
Lu Li was not at all affected by this change. He continued to gather a growing amount of Feather Wind, forming dragons of wind which would then grow into silver dragons. He wanted to see if Ji Zhantian’s destruction of silver dragons could be faster than him producing them.
Ji Zhantian was still fighting the severe soul attack. In the beginning, he was still able to generate beast phantoms. Gradually, he slowed down. Using the Originator Artifact would require tremendous mental and physical energy. The soul attacks he was going through made matters worse. It was more strenuous for him to operate the Originator Artifact now.
On the other side, Lu Li was not affected at all. Hence, he could keep the supply of silver dragons going. The shift in power dynamics between the two resulted in the fact that Ji Zhantian found a growing number of silver dragons around him…
“Ah!”
Shouting another miserable shout, Ji Zhantian braced himself in midair. He rolled around and around. Strong as his soul was, he could stand it no more. The pain in the soul was the most intolerable of all kinds. After all, Ji Zhantian was still just a human being.
“No…”
Li Shang’s mind was weighted down by the loss of hope. Not even Ji Zhantian could defeat Lu Li. Who else in the entire human race could be Lu Li’s worthy opponent now? Cold-blooded man, Lu Li was. He would end all his enemies’ lives.
“Work with me!”
Li Shang and some other patriarchs exchanged eye contact. They were ready to fight with their lives. If they did not make a move now, when Lu Li killed Ji Zhantian, it would be their turn to face doom.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”
Li Shang and several other patriarchs sprang into action instantly. They came towards Lu Li from all directions. A few more patriarchs joined them after a moment of hesitation. Additionally, there were another twenty or so patriarchs itching for action.
“How can you still be so blinded?”
Glaring sharply at the twenty or so patriarchs, Patriarch of Law Enforcement bellowed, “Is death what you are seeking? Is death what you want for your families? The human race has come to such a tragic situation. How can you still focus on an internal fight?”
These patriarchs were more hesitant than being loyal to Ji Zhantian. The fact that they were thinking about taking action was due to their fear of Lu Li hunting them down afterward.
They felt shamed being scolded by Patriarch of Law Enforcement. One of them made up his mind and said, “Forget it, alright. We should admit when we are wrong. I will accept whatever punishment Lu Li wants to give me after all this.”
The twenty or so patriarchs stayed. None of the rest of the patriarchs would do otherwise now. Only Li Shang and the dozen patriarchs he gathered were dashing toward Lu Li and they were all attacking in the most ferocious manner.
“Is this how you want to play it? Okay!”
Standing in midair with pride, Lu Li looked on indifferently. Several dragons of wind whooshed toward the patriarchs approaching.
“Ah—”
Earth Immortal Realm warriors’ souls were not nearly strong enough. Previously, even an average Feather Wind was enough to affect Uncle Nine of Jun Family and the other Earth Immortal Realm soul slaves. Besides, at the moment, dragons of wind were enhanced to some degree. Needless to say, as soon as the dragons of wind entangled those patriarchs, they all laced their hands behind their heads and roared in pain!
“Little White!”
It came out from the Wicked Bead. Pointing to those patriarchs howling and rolling around in the sky, Lu Li ordered, “Bite them!”
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White was filled with excitement and dashed on in a blur. At first, Lu Li was worried that Little White might be affected by the Feather Wind so he moved some out of Little White’s way. However, Little White was so fast that it pierced through the dragons of wind and was not affected at all.
Little White landed on Li Shang’s neck. With a simple bite, Little White crushed Li Shang’s neck. He was beheaded.
“Boom~”
The headless body of Li Shang fell down onto the plaza. Even a Teleportation Formation was cracked due to the impact. Blood was still spilling out from his neck. It was appalling.
Silence took over the city. Li Shang was one of the three most powerful warriors in the Demon-slaying Hall. He was second only to Ji Zhantian and Patriarch of Law Enforcement. Today, under the watchful eyes of the people, he was killed.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
Little White was still on the move. Every time it took action, a headless corpse would drop. The silence in the city grew deeper as more and more patriarchs died…
