My Master Knows It All

30: Chapter 27: Little Coward Can’t Take the Heat, Sneak Attack_1 30: Chapter 27: Little Coward Can’t Take the Heat, Sneak Attack_1 No good!

Li Xingyao finally reacted, raising a talisman from his sleeve.

A shadow of a Mysterious Turtle flew out from the talisman, enveloping his body, while his hands quickly formed seals, the spiritual energy of the Immortal Bridge Dao Platform behind him madly pouring into the spirit talisman.

This was a Full Level Mysterious Turtle Heavenly Defense Talisman of the Immortal Bridge Realm, theoretically touted as the absolute defense talisman among its peers!

Li Xingyao knew that he only needed a small amount of mana to activate the talisman; as long as he could withstand Cao Zhen’s Thunder Law until all his mana was exhausted, he could turn defeat into victory.

The Five-thunder Righteous Method collided with the shadow of the Mysterious Turtle, setting off a storm of thunderbolts, and a thick cloud of dust enveloped the battlefield.

As the sound of the thunderstorm ceased, the power of the Five-thunder Righteous Method completely dissipated, and the dust shrouding the battlefield gradually cleared.

Li Xingyao trembled uncontrollably, visible sparks of electric light jumping chaotically over his body – a Full Level Mysterious Turtle Heavenly Defense Talisman of the Immortal Bridge Realm, shattered!

Not only was the spectator stand silent, but many faces turned ashen.

A Full Level Mysterious Turtle Heavenly Defense Talisman of the Immortal Bridge Realm couldn’t withstand a single divine skill of Thunder Law from an Immortal Bridge Period cultivator with three Immortal Bridges?

Even if this person possesses the foundations of the Dragon and Tiger and the Dragon and Tiger Immortal Bridge, at most it should have been enough to shatter the Mysterious Turtle Heavenly Defense Talisman, right?

Li Xingyao’s defensive mana should have been able to keep him safe.

Unless that divine skill of Thunder Law just now was at the peak of the Immortal Bridge Realm, otherwise, it shouldn’t be possible to shatter the innate defense of the Mysterious Turtle!

But could a person at the 3rd level of the Immortal Bridge Realm have the power to activate a peak Immortal Bridge Realm Thunder Law divine skill?

Alright!

A foundation in Dragon and Tiger and the Dragon and Tiger Immortal Bridge could indeed make it possible!

But to cultivate a Thunder Law to full level within the same realm is not an easy task!

Does Four Treasures Peak have the money to buy thunderstones for cultivating Thunder Law?

Or do they have money to set up a Lightning Attraction Array for cultivating Thunder Law?

The crowd couldn’t believe the outcome before them; this wasn’t just Starshine Peak’s defeat in a magical duel, this was almost a bankruptcy for all the spectators!

“Do you have a second talisman?” Cao Zhen lifted his left hand, with lightning flaring in the shape of Dragon Tiger Qi, “If not, you really need to prepare to die.”

Li Xingyao hesitated, indeed, he still had two Full Level Immortal Bridge Realm talismans in his hand, but those were Starshine Peak’s life savings!

In a few days at the Hundred Peaks re-ranking, he had hoped to use these two talismans to climb a few more ranks to obtain a greater share of the sect’s resources.

“Since you don’t?

Then just lie down for this Master,” Cao Zhen’s wrist flipped, and thunderbolts thicker than houses fell from the sky.

Li Xingyao’s scalp numbed at this; was this to make him lie down?

This was murder!

His cultivation base simply couldn’t withstand this divine skill of the Five-thunder Righteous Method.

In a moment of life and death, Li Xingyao raised a massive Firebird talisman in his hand to meet the thunderbolt.

The Five-thunder Righteous Method clashed with the shadow of the Firebird, setting off an even greater storm of thunder, and the suffocating dust once again shrouded the battlefield.

Before the dust had cleared, Cao Zhen’s third application of the Five-thunder Righteous Method crashed down!

Li Xingyao, within the cloud of smoke, felt as if his bones were nearly softened, and inside his chest, his blood and qi churned as if being tormented by a hundred knives and a thousand spears.

Seeing the third thunderbolt fall, Li Xingyao began to curse furiously in his heart; was Cao Zhen intent on desecrating Starshine Peak’s ancestral grave to be satisfied?

Time didn’t give Li Xingyao more opportunity to think; he hastily deployed his last talisman.

It was a Sword Qi!

Like a great river, a surge of Sword Qi burst forth, intertwining with the thunderbolt, colliding unremittingly.

In an instant!

The talisman in Li Xingyao’s hand exploded once again, the residual force of the Five-thunder Righteous Method Divine Skill shattered the Sword Qi and heavily struck his body, thousands of currents of electricity rapidly zigzagging within him, breaking through one barrier after another in his body.

As the dust dispersed again, Li Xingyao lay on the ground, his body pitch black, fine strands of dark qi entwining around his body, his limbs twitching continuously, mouth spewing white foam non-stop.

The onlooking crowd fell silent as death, no one expected Cao Zhen’s mana to be so abundant – that’s Divine Skills!

An existence beyond spells!

To be able to use it thrice in succession without running dry?

Was this the depth of the Perfectly Completed Dao Platform and Immortal Bridge?

It probably won’t be long before…

Four Treasures Peak…

The Hidden Dragon Immortal Palace within the sect would invite him to stay at Hidden Dragon Observatory, right?

Cao Zhen waved to the referee with an ashen face, who stood petrified, and said, “If you don’t announce the winner soon, this Master will have to continue.

Wait a bit longer, and Li Xingyao might truly die on this platform.”

The referee cursed inwardly that it would have been better if Li Xingyao had died; the referee himself had lost so much money.

But then, up in the spectator stands, an elder from Sharp Sword Immortal Palace suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, “Wait!

That black qi is demonic qi!

Be careful…”

Before the Sharp Sword Immortal Palace elder could finish speaking, a black Sword Qi burst from Li Xingyao’s fingertips, heading straight for Cao Zhen’s chest!

Quick!

Li Xingyao’s surprise attack was too fast!

Faster than most of the audience could react; even the elders in the stands couldn’t break through the defensive formation atop the arena in time, which was there to prevent external interference.

The sword Qi hit Cao Zhen in the chest in an instant, sending him flying dozens of meters before he heavily crashed against the protective wall activated around the arena and stopped retreating.

Quick!

Too quick!

The tide of battle changed in a blink!

Li Xingyao, charred like a burnt log, unsteadily stood up, her black charred skin cracking and falling off, revealing the tender, elastic skin underneath, like that of a newborn.

The newly risen Li Xingyao suddenly exuded a black aura, her eyes flashing a bewitching red, and her whole body emanated a strange sense of power.

“Today, it looks like I, the great one, won’t be leaving.” Li Xingyao looked around with an evil grin on her face.

“But I won’t be at a loss!

I’ve annihilated a peak master of your Immortal Path, one who was at the Perfect Fulfillment Dao Platform and had a perceived Immortal Bridge!”

Senior Disciple Nie Yunting of Starshine Peak finally understood why his previously gentle and amiable master had become so violent and ruthless; he was possessed by a demonic beast!

“Referee!

Dispel the formation!” Elder Copper Plate shouted anxiously.

“It’s too late!” Behind Li Xingyao, black demonic faces with various expressions resembling a Dao Platform rose up, and simultaneously, seven demonic bodies resembling an Immortal Bridge also ascended!

As her power surged, Li Xingyao raised a black demonic blade high, slashing down at Cao Zhen, who was lying on the ground.

“Damn you!” Cao Zhen suddenly had ten Dragon and Tiger Dao Platforms and five Dragon and Tiger Immortal Bridges appear behind him.

He leapt to his feet and used the Five-thunder Righteous Method to shatter the black blade of demonic Qi.

The audience, who were just caught in surprise and tension, were dumbfounded.

The master of Four Treasures Peak actually had an ace up his sleeve?

Five Tiger and Dragon Immortal Bridges?

It hurts!

Cao Zhen felt as if his bones were about to break from the chest pain.

As an otaku and corporate drone who hardly ever fought back on Earth, he had no battle experience in this world of Immortal Cultivation.

If not for the protection of the Dragon and Tiger Golden Body, that strike just now would have been fatal.

Cao Zhen had some admiration for other transmigrators who became battle geniuses the moment they learned a cultivation technique, completely ignoring their opponents’ decades or centuries of rich combat experience.

Even those who would flinch and brace for a punch on Earth become valiant like Long Aotian in this foreign world.

But his own luck was truly incredible!

Fighting in an arena bout, he had even rooted out a Demonic Path mole within the sect?

Surely there would be a hefty reward for this too, right?

Li Xingyao, seeing Cao Zhen rise, was stunned.

The five perceived Dragon and Tiger Immortal Bridges filled her evil eyes with surprise.

“You…

you didn’t die?”

“You little coward!

Playing dirty with your ambush!” Angered by the pain, Cao Zhen discarded any further pretense of holding back.

The five Immortal Bridges, in conjunction with the Dragon and Tiger Dao Platforms, unleashed their full power, covering the opponent with the Five-thunder Righteous Method.

“Demonic Sky Solution…” Li Xingyao has not yet fully deployed his Demonic Sky Solution when a thunderbolt slammed him to the ground once more, with the protective black aura shattering and vanishing like drops evaporating instantly upon meeting fierce heat.

With one strike, Cao Zhen floored Li Xingyao, fearing he still had untapped combat strength, Cao raised his hand again for a full-powered Five-thunder Righteous Method smash.

“Stop!

He must be taken alive!”

By then, the arena’s Defensive Array had been torn down by the referee, and an elder from the Sharp Sword Immortal Palace instantly appeared on the stage, standing beside Li Xingyao and parrying the ferocious attack with his hand.

After the thunderous noise, the elder from Sharp Sword Immortal Palace felt a tingling pain in his palm and was secretly shocked at the Thunder Dao divine skills used by the master of Four Treasures Peak.

Although he did not use his full strength, his hand was still numbed by the vibration?

In a flash, the Sharp Sword Immortal Palace elder saved Li Xingyao’s life, shielding the gravely injured man who stood no chance of a comeback, and addressed Cao Zhen, “A living Demonic Path spy is more valuable.

Forcing this spy out of Starlight Peak master’s body could even save him.”

Cao Zhen hadn’t intended to kill the Master Of Starlight Peak, only to incapacitate him completely.

Seeing someone intervene, he held back.

“Referee?” Cao Zhen looked back at the referee below the stage and asked, “Are you not going to decide?”

The referee, while inwardly lamenting his own bets, hurriedly climbed onto the stage and announced, “In this round, the master of Four Treasures Peak wins.”
