Everyone from Lingtian who could fight had already met up with their respective opponents. Everyone was putting their lives on the line to complete their given mission, because they knew what price they would have to pay if they couldn’t. If their lives were needed to save the lives of their comrades, they wouldn’t even flinch when accepting the deal.
In their minds, their own lives didn’t really worth much to them, but the precious lives of their comrades must be protected!
The fights in every hall were all fought with maximum intensity. However, one of the halls stood out as the fight there had reached a crucial turning point.
Lord Kun, who had easily jumped past the Green hall and went straight into the main hall, was stopped by Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun who were guarding it..
The past majestic and picturesque main hall was now half-destroyed with the marble floors being pulverized to bits and the walls collapsing on itself.
When Lord Kun first went into the main hall, there was always this glaring smile he had on his face but now, his appearance was reduced to that of a crippled beggar. He even had his left arm torn off from his shoulder. What was worse was that although he wasn’t bleeding out profusely, there was this thin layer of dark energy that was enveloping his entire left shoulder.
This ominous dark energy obviously didn’t belong to Lord Kun as it was continuously devouring Lord Kun’s domain energy for it to grow larger and to eventually envelop his entire body.
Lord Kun endured the pain that was like thousands of fire ants biting his shoulder and flipped his right hand. A layer of green life energy slowly started to rise from his right hand. With that life energy in hand, he pressed on his left shoulder, and as the green life energy touched his shoulder, it started fighting off the dark energy.
As the two energies clashed, Lord Kun had a pained expression on his face. The muscles on his face began to tremble which made him seem like he was transforming into a monster.
Not long after, the green energy coming from his own body successfully suppressed the dark energy and drove the dark energy out. After relieving himself of the hellish torture, Lord Kun calmed down and turned to look towards the prone Li Lanfeng not far from him. Seeing Li Lanfeng lying there, being no threat to him at all, thoughts of how to torture him began to surafce in Lord Kun’s mind.
Before coming here, Lord Kun never thought he would be reduced to such a poor state because of two little brats. When Lord Kun first walked into the main hall, he didn’t think much of Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun, he was even planning on casually walking by them without giving them the time of his day.
Noticing his indifference, how could a scheming person like Li Lanfeng give up on such a good opportunity?
In an instant, plans on how to exploit such opportunity began to surface in his mind. His final plan was to have Zhao Jun be the primary attacker with him being the secondary as to give Lord Kun a false impression of their strength.
For the role of being the primary attacker, Zhao Jun performed very well. Having already entered the late stage of titled domain realm, he was able to give Lord Kun some pressure. It made a support like Li Lanfeng, who had just reached the title domain realm, not seem like much of a threat.
With Lord Kun placing most of his focus on Zhao Jun, Li Lanfeng was waiting patiently for the opportune time to strike.
Having the concept that could erase any type of energy that was considered a cheat even in the grand scale of the universe. With such a cheat in hand, even Lord Kun couldn’t get away unscathed.
However, being halfway into the god-realm had slight chances of clairvoyance. Just as Li Lanfeng was about to pounce at him, alert bells in Lord Kun’s head immediately sounded. Although it seemed impossible for something here to endanger his life, he still believed in his instincts so he shifted his position just slightly. If he didn’t shift his position, Li Lanfeng’s erasing energy would have struck his heart, not his left arm.
If his heart was hit, Lord Kun probably would no longer be in this world. Then, the winners of this fight would be Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun.
Fortunately for him, but unfortunately for Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun, Lord Kun was an individual who was halfway into the god-realm. Despite these two realms being only half a stage apart, the half stage was still the difference of life or death for Li Lanfeng.
“Die!” After suffering so much, Lord Kun definitely wasn’t going to let Li Lanfeng go. Not only did Li Lanfeng tear off his arm, he also cut off his path into the god-realm.
A broken physical body was the largest hindrance for advancing into the god-realm. The path not only represented their minds, but also their bodies. Only when both their minds and bodies were perfect, would one be able to advance into the god-realm. It wouldn’t work if either of those two weren’t perfect.
Thus, all of his anger and rage were directed towards Li Lanfeng.
Zhao Jun, who was lying in a corner, quietly took out a vial of medicinal agent when Lord Kun’s focus was on Li Lanfeng and immediately injected it into his neck artery.
Just as Lord Kun was about to attack Li Lanfeng, he shot up like a cannonball and pounced towards Li Lanfeng.
Bang! Zhao Jun covered Li Lanfeng with his body without any fear for his life. He managed to forcibly block Lord Kun’s death blow with his body!
“Zhao Jun!” Li Lanfeng screamed as he lifted his head to watch Zhao Jun blocking the death blow for him.
“Ugh!” Blood poured out from Zhao Jun’s mouth.
He used all his might to turn around and smile. He then moved his mouth.
“Zhao Jun!” Li Lanfeng stared blankly as tears rushed down his face uncontrollably.
“It was nice knowing you, Lanfeng!”
Boom!
After he said that, Zhao Jun’s strong and muscular body immediately went limp and landed heavily onto the ground. Blood quickly spilled out from his body onto the floor.
It was just like what they said. They would protect their comrades even if it meant giving up their own lives.
