"Array Card?"
Lao Jun chuckled softly, then flicked his horsetail whisk; the Tai Chi Formation beneath his feet spun, blocking the effectiveness of the shadow Jiang Yuan's Array Card.
"Wow, Lao Jun, you have this trick up your sleeve!"
Jiang Yuan, upon seeing Lao Jun's movement, was both excited and surprised.
The card that Lao Jun made for himself as a pharmacist had unexpectedly many abilities.
Should one say that it's no surprise, given that it's Lao Jun?
"Just a minor trick."
Lao Jun flicked his horsetail whisk again, speaking in a calm tone.
However, the slight curl of his lips still revealed his slight smugness.
The Yin Yang flow of the Tai Chi Diagram can produce different effects.
Just like now.
If the Array Card is laid out, then when the Tai Chi Formation spins, it can forcefully dominate the area, and then use another effect of the Tai Chi Formation to deny the overlay of another Array Card.
After all, Tai Chi itself is also an Array.
Without the assistance of the Array Card, the shadow Zhao Gongming, albeit having strong defense, couldn't last long.
Even the Disaster Exorcism couldn't be successfully used; it was restricted by Zhao Gongming's Dragon Binding Rope and neutralized by Nezha.
As for the shadow Zhao Gongming's Dragon Binding Rope?
It was deployed and used on Zhao Gongming, limiting him, but it didn't manage to finish him off.
The reason was, Zhao Gongming had four people on his side!
After Zhao Gongming was bound, Lao Jun struck, Taiching Divine Thunder descended inflicting mental damage on the shadow Zhao Gongming, preventing him from immediately using a Skill Card to advance.
Jiang Yuan also reacted instantly; Linglong Tower landed on Zhao Gongming, to guard against Zhao Gongming being attacked opportunistically.
Shi Ji's Undead Magic "Dark Fear" also fell on the shadow Zhao Gongming, depriving him of his vision.
Nezha also stood in front of Zhao Gongming, entangling with the shadow Zhao Gongming as he charged forward.
This delayed time, after which the control effect of the Dragon Binding Rope ended.
Next, it was Zhao Gongming's turn with his Dragon Binding Rope.
The Dragon Binding Rope was thrown; Disaster Exorcism hadn't even been used when it was interrupted by Nezha's Qiankun Ring and Fire-tipped Spear.
Simultaneously, Zhao Gongming also used "Instant Flash" to appear in front of the shadow Zhao Gongming.
A full-force strike from the "steel whip" shattered the equipment of the shadow Zhao Gongming, and Nezha's Qiankun Ring and Fire-tipped Spear consequently finished off the shadow Zhao Gongming.
"Snap!"
"Pleasure working with you!"
Nezha and Zhao Gongming's palms slapped together, smiles spread across both of their faces.
Following that, the five people present simultaneously turned their attention to the shadow Jiang Yuan.
However, the shadow Jiang Yuan's eyes showed no fluctuations, still attempting to use Array Cards and the Five Elements Magic Skill Cards to harm Nezha, Zhao Gongming, and others.
But such damage was truly too weak for Nezha and Zhao Gongming.
Easily blocked, and within a short while, the Fire-tipped Spear broke through the "Linglong Tower."
Following the destruction of the "Linglong Tower," the "Linglong Pagoda" behind it was even simpler.
Although the Star Power defense of Linglong Pagoda isn't a Skill, how could Jiang Yuan not know how to break through the Linglong Pagoda?
A continuous attack to disrupt the replenishment of Star Power was sufficient.
While "Nine Breathes" really could restore all Star Power at once, there was a time interval.
The "Star Power Mat" could continuously restore Star Power without any interval, but it couldn't restore all Star Power.
The only thing that could fully restore all Star Power was the Sweet Dew Water in the Jade Purifying Bottle.
But how much Sweet Dew Water was there?
Zhao Gongming's all-out attack depleted nearly all the star power inside the shadow Jiang Yuan.
It almost reached the Linglong Pagoda's load limit.
Under such circumstances, if "Nine Breathes" wasn't triggered just in time, then one could only use Sweet Dew Water to quickly replenish one's own star power.
However, behind Zhao Gongming was Jiang Yuan, a steady source of Star Power replenishment.
Basically, after Nezha attacked twice, Zhao Gongming could take a turn.
And not only was Nezha's attack frequency high, but the damage was also substantial.
One strike from the Fire-tipped Spear was about one-third.
But Nezha not only had a Fire-tipped Spear; he also had two Yin Yang swords and a Qiankun Ring.
Under such circumstances, the consumption of Sweet Dew Water in the shadow Jiang Yuan's Jade Purifying Bottle was extremely rapid.
Nezha and Zhao Gongming's two rounds of attacks depleted Shadow Jiang Yuan's Sweet Dew Water.
Without the Star Power for defense, the Linglong Pagoda was barely more enduring than a Linglong Tower without any skills.
"Phew."
After the fall of the Linglong Pagoda, Shadow Jiang Yuan had nothing left to protect himself.
The Purple Ribbon Robe's strength was nowhere near that of the Linglong Pagoda or Linglong Tower; it was just an extra layer of protection that was blasted apart not even lasting a single round in the hands of Nezha and Zhao Gongming.
Seeing Shadow Jiang Yuan was taken down, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a smile creeping onto his face.
"It feels pretty refreshing to see Shadow Jiang Yuan taken down."
"That's right, I feel the same…"
Nezha flashed a thumbs-up at Jiang Yuan, his face spreading into a toothy grin.
However, before he could finish speaking, the space shifted, and Jiang Yuan was transported back to the great hall.
"Yo, how did it go?"
This time Jiang Yuan wasn't the first there, because Mu Qianshan and Huang Huanqing had arrived before him.
"Uh, I passed."
Jiang Yuan took a moment to respond, then turned to ask Mu Qianshan and the others.
"How about you, did you pass?"
"I passed too."
Mu Qianshan was a bit excited, "Got lucky, I had a breakthrough when fighting my clone, but he didn't."
After saying so, Mu Qianshan couldn't help but laugh aloud.
"I failed."
Huang Huanqing's mouth twitched slightly, his voice carrying a hint of helplessness, "The opponent had equal strength but was better at commanding the Guardian Beast."
"Ah?"
Hearing this, Mu Qianshan also stopped his laughter, looking at Huang Huanqing with some pity.
"No worries, he didn't pass either."
Huang Huanqing smiled, then gestured to the Undead Summoner beside him, "Having someone to share the misfortune makes me feel a lot better."
"Ha, true."
Jiang Yuan glanced at the Undead Summoner, and couldn't help but chuckle.
But then his laughter quickly faded.
If the other party didn't pass, wouldn't that mean I'd have one less reward for the ninth challenge?
With this thought, Jiang Yuan quickly asked, "So now only the Undead Amplification Card Master hasn't come out yet?"
"Yeah, given that it's an Amplification Card Master with no real combat ability, the battle is probably hard," Mu Qianshan nodded.
"I wonder if he can win?"
Jiang Yuan had given up, especially since both Huang Huanqing and the combat-capable Undead Summoner had lost.
The Undead Amplification Card Master had no combat ability and could only amplify himself and then fight hand-to-hand, likely no chance of winning.
Jiang Yuan and the others waited for quite a while before someone suddenly appeared in the grand hall.
It was the Undead Amplification Card Master.
After appearing, he immediately asked the fellow next to him.
"How did it go, did you pass?"
"No, you?"
The Undead Summoner, somewhat displeased, glanced at Mu Qianshan and Huang Huanqing who had previously jeered at him, then posed the question to the Undead Amplification Card Master.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The Undead Amplification Card Master burst into laughter, causing Mu Qianshan and Huang Huanqing to tense up.
However, Jiang Yuan reacted differently, getting instantly excited upon seeing his reaction.
Who could have thought that this guy, whom I had no hope for, actually passed!
Now I have an extra reward for the ninth challenge!
But, if I had known earlier the rules for the ninth challenge, I should have kept a few guys with stronger combat capabilities.
"You passed?"
Hearing the hearty laughter of the Undead Amplification Card Master, the Undead Summoner also hurriedly stood up, asking eagerly with a trace of surprise.
Jiang Yuan was equally anxious.
