God-Like Extraction - Chapter 158
Chapter 158: Li Linzhou Lost
There is someone else nearby?
Su Jingxing’s heart skipped a beat. He activated the secret ability, Advanced Hearing, to the maximum and listened carefully.
No one!
At least within his listening range, there was no one.
Su Jingxing activated his Night Vision and Distant Vision to the maximum. He scanned beyond his listening range inch by inch, but he didn’t find anyone.
This fellow who was hiding in the dark had good concealment methods.
Su Jingxing sighed and prepared himself.
Li Linzhou was still around. It would not be easy for the other party to take Feng Tiejian away.
Swish!
A black shadow suddenly shot out from the dark forest on the right side of the Martial Suppression Office’s headquarters building, rushing towards Feng Tiejian.
In the process of rushing, it split into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into 16!
In less than three seconds, 16 black shadows appeared in front of Su Jingxing’s eyes. They also appeared in the vision of Li Linzhou, who was at a window on the seventh level of the headquarters building.
After the 16 shadows appeared, they dispersed and dashed towards Feng Tiejian.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Sword energy filled the air, emitting a bright light.
Li Linzhou leaped out of the window and landed on the path.
The long sword in his hand swung through the air, releasing streaks of sword energy to attack the 16 black shadows.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The 16 black shadows moved like ghosts, and half of them easily avoided the sword energies.
The remaining half were struck by the sword energies. With a series of explosions, they exploded into mist and disappeared.
But very quickly, in less than two seconds, the eight shadows that had dodged each split into two shadows, restoring the total to 16 shadows.
All the black shadows had the same goal: to pounce on Feng Tiejian and leave with him.
Seeing this, Li Linzhou naturally would not allow the other party to succeed. His sword energy continued to sweep across, and his entire person also flew over, moving close to Feng Tiejian and standing beside him.
In front of Feng Tiejian, he defeated the black shadows that pounced over.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Muffled explosions resounded through the night without end.
The black shadows exploded one after another and split up to produce more of them.
There seemed to be an endless stream of people charging madly towards Li Linzhou from all directions.
Feng Tiejian, who had a rope tied around his body and a cloth stuffed in his mouth, was dumbfounded.
On the roof, Su Jingxing’s eyes flashed.
These black shadows were formed from true energy!
Each time a shadow exploded, a portion of true energy would be consumed.
Continuous explosions would only deplete the true energy.
Li Linzhou’s sword energy was the same. It was condensed using externally released true energy.
Destroyed a black shadow with each strike seemed powerful, but which one consumed more energy? Su Jingxing sensed carefully and found that they were similar.
In other words, a manifestation of true energy was just enough to offset out a streak of sword energy.
The final victor would depend on whose true energy cultivation was stronger.
Su Jingxing did not know how many years of cultivation Li Linzhou had.
He did not know the cultivation level of the mastermind who was still hiding in the dark either.
But as the two consumed each other, their true energy decreased.
Su Jingxing finally discovered where the mastermind was hiding.
The third level of a shop that was across the road in front of the Martial Suppression Office!
As his true energy was increasingly depleted, the aura of the mastermind could no longer be concealed.
Su Jingxing sensed it, and so did Li Linzhou.
He immediately swung his sword quickly and defeating the four black shadows that were rushing towards him from behind. With a slash of his sword, he quickly flew out.
Swoosh!
Boom!
The rainbow-like sword energy made a turn in the air and headed straight for the third level of the shop across the road from the entrance of the Martial Suppression Office.
Boom!
A black shadow rushed out from the third floor. Facing the sword energy, a palm imprint slammed out and collided with it, turning everything into nothingness.
As the violent energies wreaked havoc, the black shadow’s true body stepped into the air and charged towards Li Linzhou.
This time, he did not manifest any more true energy clones. Instead, with a kitchen knife in hand, he landed on the path where Li Linzhou was.
Swish!
The kitchen knife radiating a blinding glow under the night sky.
After slashing down, there was no knife energy released. Instead, there was an illusory knife shadow.
One, two, three, four…
In the blink of an eye, countless almost transparent blade shadows danced in the air and surrounded Li Linzhou tightly.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The sword energy around Li Linzhou increased the frequency of attacks and shot out rapidly in all directions.
The two forces collided——
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The sound of metal clashing echoed in the air.
In the face of the densely-packed and terrifying blade shadows, Li Linzhou’s sword energy only lasted for two breaths before it disintegrated, turning into a large amount of energy that burst out in all directions.
The swarming blade shadows immediately struck Li Linzhou.
Pu!
Li Linzhou spat out a mouthful of blood.
The protective true energy around his body disintegrated in half a second. He was sent flying more than ten meters away by the impact of the blade shadows. He crashed into the small forest and broke seven to eight trees. Finally, he landed on the ground, creating a human-shaped dent.
He lost…
As the number one expert of Qinghe City, even if it was only on the surface, Li Linzhou was one of the most powerful figures in the city. However, he had lost this time.
He had lost to a mastermind whom he didn’t even get a clear look of, a mastermind who had defeated him with just a kitchen knife!
Of course,
the reason why Li Linzhou was defeated so quickly was firstly because his true energy cultivation was inferior to his opponent. Using his sword energy to fight the black shadows in the earlier half had already consumed more than half of his true energy.
The second reason was that the kitchen knife used by the mastermind was not a semi-treasure weapon or a treasure weapon. Instead, it was a spirit weapon!
Su Jingxing couldn’t tell whether it was an ancient spirit weapon or a blood spirit weapon.
However, he was a hundred percent certain that the kitchen knife was a spirit weapon.
That was because the densely packed transparent blade shadows did not carry any true energy or internal force fluctuations. It purely a unique force.
This force shot out straight from the kitchen knife.
And its might was so terrifying. Clearly, this was an ability that belonged to the kitchen knife itself.
Which made it a spirit weapon!
This was the first time Su Jingxing had seen the strength of other spirit weapons. He did not expect it to be such a situation.
The mastermind behind Feng Tiejian’s capture was a powerful fourth-grade cultivator, and he even had a spirit weapon.
What did Feng Tiejian do to be targeted by such an expert?
In his bewilderment, Su Jingxing controlled his body and Thunderbolt appeared in his palm.
Whoosh!
Like a ghost, he crossed the air and descended above the path on the right side of the Martial Suppression Office headquarters building.
The black shadow that had just lifted Feng Tiejian and was about to leave sensed something wrong and suddenly slashed towards the sky.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Countless invisible blade shadows danced in the air again and surrounded Su Jingxing tightly.
Boom!
It was like a thunderclap from a blue sky
Under the control of Su Jingxing’s will, Thunderbolt that floated in midair shot out over 10 thick bolts of lightning carrying terrifying heavenly lightning and swept through the surrounding space.
Electric arcs coiled around him. Wherever they passed, the blade shadows would disintegrate into nothingness.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Boom boom boom!
As resounding as thunderclaps, the lightning snakes danced wildly.
Energy surged and stirred the air, and all the blade shadows disappeared.
In less than five seconds, Thunderbolt won the first exchange!
