Chapter 247
“Sun Dong is deceased!” Several miles away, as they witnessed the demise of Sun Dong’s spiritual essence at the hands of Li Su, leaving nothing behind, Elder Jing, who managed to escape more swiftly, underwent a sudden change in his expression. Despite his greater strength and a deeper bag of tricks, he had exhausted many of his hidden tactics while deflecting the Elemental Magnetic Barrier counterattack with the help of a Dao talisman.
Finally, he managed to evade the same fate as Sun Dong’s physical disintegration, but his spiritual essence endured significant damage, not to mention the numerous injuries he sustained.
I never expected him to utilise the Elemental Magnetic Barrier in such a way! Without even taking a moment to wipe the blood from his mouth’s corner, he fled desperately into the distance. Their losses this time were substantial.
The fact that a Nascent Divinity like Sun Dong had perished was astonishing. The highly valuable Dao talisman provided by that woman was consumed, and he had also depleted a significant portion of his concealed resources. He couldn’t have imagined that Li Su’s mastery of formations had reached a level where he could integrate the Elemental Magnetic Barrier into the Flying Immortal Sect’s Mountain-protecting Great Formation, leaving them outmaneuvered.
Moreover, Li Su’s rapid growth and increasing power were terrifying and impressive. Otherwise, even with his physical body shattered, Sun Dong might have escaped with his spiritual essence. Fortunately, though severely wounded, he was still alive. However, at that moment, in the distance, Li Su had transformed into a streak of blinding speed and was rapidly closing in. His speed surpassed even that of Sun Dong, a Nascent Divinity expert. What sort of secret technique is this? In a panic, Elder Jing made a tough decision. Despite being at the Third Layer of the Nascent Divinity expert, he was severely injured, and with Li Su closing in rapidly, his fate was uncertain. Seeing Li Su rapidly approaching, Elder Jing gritted his teeth and resolutely abandoned his physical body. His primordial spirit soared into the sky just as Li Su approached, launching his attack. Elder Jing’s spiritual essence instantly shot away in the distance in his dire circumstances.
Realizing the unfavorable situation, he didn’t confront Li Su head-on but chose to abandon his physical body and flee.
Even Peak Master Dieyun, initially too far away, couldn’t catch up despite chasing for thousands of miles. The primary reason was that her physical body lagged, and her spiritual essence couldn’t venture too far, as it would pose a significant risk. Nonetheless, she did manage to severely injure Elder Jing and obtain the storage pouch he discarded in his attempt to escape for his life.
“Thank you, senior, for your assistance,” Li Su expressed his gratitude.
“Haha, Li Su, you nearly startled me as well. Let me return my spiritual essence to its place, and then we can have a more detailed conversation,” the Tianluo Sect’s sect leader’s spiritual essence responded.
The spiritual essence of the three individuals departed shortly after, concluding this battle.
Li Su looked towards the Canglan Mountains, where the Elemental Magnetic Barrier had not yet subsided. The Elemental Magnetic Barrier’s power was terrifying, and its counterattack was formidable. If Elder Jing didn’t have that Dao talisman, the counterattack of the Elemental Magnetic Barrier would have killed both him and Sun Dong.
Of course, it was unrealistic to expect that others didn’t have hidden resources. After all, the Elemental Magnetic Barrier was an inanimate object with limitations. Unlike cultivators, even if these two Nascent Divinity experts barely reached Nascent Divinity, they still had exceptional qualities.
