Chapter 1119: Chapter 749: Killing Mid Ascension Stage
The Dao Palace wanted to completely eradicate the Human Race, naturally starting with the strongest among them. If they could capture the two mid-stage Ascension Human warriors alive, it would be a great merit in the Dao Palace, and anyone involved would receive a huge reward!
Wu Kexi was naturally thrilled upon realizing that his Divine Soil Merciful Hand had consecutively struck two mid-stage Ascension masters. Judging from the situation earlier, those two masters should have been severely injured and unable to resist anymore.
"Then let me strike the third hand and completely cripple them!"
This time, Wu Kexi planned to deploy his Divine Soil Merciful Hand in a net-like fashion, delivering two strikes, one to the left and one to the right, in an encircling form.
He wanted to capture the Human warriors alive!
"Wu Kexi, stop!"
Trapped in the darkness, Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong were both shocked and furious, having been struck twice and suffering tremendous soul damage that severely harmed their foundation, leaving them with no strength to resist.
They were most afraid that Wu Kexi would deliver a third strike and blast them to death!
However, they were too severely injured to even flee, and were blown away, unable to know where their opponent was in the darkness.
But just at this moment—
Buzz!
The sky suddenly brightened!
The darkness seemed to be dispelled in an instant, and everyone could see clearly.
Ahead lay ruins, and everyone was in the air, panicking and crowding together, but no one was seriously harmed. Many couldn’t help but look up to the sky, where two emaciated auras lingered.
It was the heavily injured Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong!
In the entire sky, only they were left, almost on the verge of destruction, and there was no third person!
Wu Yumen, now a mere frail soul, laboriously raised his head, wanting to see who the Human cultivator he had just fought was, but when he glanced around, he suddenly saw a similarly weakened Wu Qiuhong!
"How did she get hurt?"
An idea suddenly flashed through Wu Yumen’s mind amid his shock and anger: "Could it be that the mid-stage Ascendant warrior I fought in the darkness earlier wasn’t from the Human Race but was actually—Wu Qiuhong?"
On the other side, Wu Qiuhong was completely stunned, with the same thoughts racing through her mind as Wu Yumen: "Was the fierce fighter I tangled with just now actually Wu Yumen?"
They looked around again at their surroundings; there wasn’t a supposed Human master around, not a single figure, not even any Inquiring Dao stage masters attacking them. Based on their combat experiences over many years and the positioning in the void, they increasingly became certain!
Earlier in the darkness, they were actually fighting each other!
They were actually hitting themselves!
Upon realizing this, both felt blood gushing in their chests, almost choking them to death!
"How could this be possible?"
Both Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong were utterly shocked!
To kill the opponent, their attacks were very ruthless, but who would have thought they were fighting each other the whole time! Not only that, they were almost blasted dead by their own Divine Soil Merciful Hand!
Shocked, they couldn’t understand why two people who knew each other so well failed to recognize each other’s combat style?
Above, Wu Kexi’s Divine Soil Merciful Hand was also about to strike Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong again. When he finally saw clearly the two figures in front of him, he was stunned and quickly stopped the Divine Soil Merciful Hand!
"What are you doing? How did you end up so injured?"
Wu Kexi never expected that when the darkness cleared, he wouldn’t see Human masters but his own two companions, who seemed to be injured!
—How did they end up so injured?
Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong were furious when they heard Wu Kexi’s words!
How could you not know how we got injured, you damn fool?
If not for your idiotic two consecutive strikes of Divine Soil Merciful Hand, would I be this seriously hurt?
But Wu Kexi indeed had no idea, because under normal circumstances, the Divine Soil Merciful Hand wouldn’t harm their own, so his first reaction was that the injuries of these two were not caused by him, but by Human mid-stage Ascension masters!
"Human masters can actually hurt Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong! Damn it, don’t worry, I’ll find the culprit for you!"
Wu Kexi searched everywhere for traces of Human mid-stage Ascension masters, now that his companions were injured, and the Human masters were missing. It’s highly likely they had hidden. If he rushed to rescue, he might fall into a trap himself, he had to first find those two Human masters!
But just as he was searching, "swish," the sky suddenly darkened again, the terrifying and eerie darkness enveloped everyone once more, blocking all perception!
"Now’s the time!"
Xiang Beifei shouted in a low voice.
Earlier, due to the Divine Soil Merciful Hand’s attacks, Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong were blown away from their positions, and Xiang Beifei and Li Qianluo lost perception of the two Dao Palace masters in the darkness, so he had to let the sky brighten to confirm their positions.
Xiang Beifei and Li Qianluo were highly in sync, as Xiang Beifei had made the plan clear from the start, and Li Qianluo was intelligent, making them cooperate seamlessly in the darkness. Their objective was very clear—they needed to confirm their targets during the interplay of darkness and light.
Xiang Beifei charged towards Wu Yumen, while Li Qianluo attacked Wu Qiuhong!
Everyone was once again enveloped by the darkness.
