Chapter 156 - Porcelain Bowl (II)
In the shadows at the corner, a figure appeared from the darkness.
The figure was the masked man who had left and returned.
“I guarantee that every word is the truth. It’s all the knowledge gathered by the Kunshan Sect over the years,” Cheng Shikun said as he trembled.
Shi Qingxin’s face was ashen.
He did not expect the masked man to turn around and return.
He was afraid that the other party might be in a bad mood and decide to kill him.
Just as a strange silence fell over the rooftop of the hotel on the island, “Court Head Chen, Court Head Shi and Court Head Xu, why is the situation different from what you said?”
Suddenly, a voice sounded from afar.
Immediately after, the figures of three men and one woman from the Kunshan Sect quickly leaped onto the rooftop of the hotel on the island.
The leader was the head of the inner court specializing in techniques attacking the lungs, Wang Zhiqing.
He was in his prime and had a strong figure. Although he was only wearing an ordinary training robe, he still had an imposing aura.
Wang Zhiqing walked over and saw the porcelain bowl in the masked man’s hand.
“Who is he? Why does he have a porcelain bowl in his hands?” Wang Zhiqing questioned Cheng Shikun.
Cheng Shikun had a displeased expression on his face. He didn’t want to bother with Wang Zhiqing and the other inner court heads, who had only just arrived.
He quickly recalled that half a year ago, during the conflict with the Myriad Phenomena Sect, Wang Zhiqing had also failed to provide timely support.
Wang Zhiqing’s excuse after the incident was that he had not received any concrete information, so he wanted to defend against the enemy from luring the tiger out of the mountains to launch a sneak attack on the Kunshan Sect.
Shi Qingxin and Xu Zhansheng were also silent.
They were also unhappy with Wang Zhiqing and the other court heads’ delayed response.
The Kunshan Sect was only about five kilometers away. If they had immediately provided support once they received the news, they would have already returned to the sect with the porcelain bowl, and there would have been no need to face the masked man.
“Why are you sneaking around? Hurry up and hand over the porcelain bowl.”
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Wang Zhiqing turned to the masked man and said with a sinister expression.
As soon as he finished speaking, before Chen Yiming made a move, Cheng Shikun, Shi Qingxin, and Xu Zhansheng reacted in fear.
They were not afraid of a god-like opponent, but of a pig-like teammate.
In Jiangnan province, the big figures at the third stage of the warrior realm were in seclusion all year round. The sect master of the Kunshan Sect was already at the very top, and he was already used to being above everyone else.
If not for the fact that they had seen the defeat of the two monks, the three of them would have done the same.
“That person…”
Cheng Shikun wanted to remind him, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by the masked man.
“It looks like I can’t be too kind. Otherwise, things will never end,” Chen Yiming said with a smile.
His voice was like the laughter of a demon, and it was as though a heavy hammer had smashed into the hearts of Cheng Shikun, Shi Qingxin, and Xu Zhansheng. The three of them stopped breathing for a moment.
“Swish!”
A sword flashed past.
The thick and vast strength-based internal force turned into a sphere that continuously expanded. In the blink of an eye, it had reached more than 20 meters in diameter and continued to expand in the direction of the four inner court heads.
“Brat!”
The four inner court heads of the Kunshan Sect led by Wang Zhiqing cursed loudly.
The four of them happened to have their attention focused on the masked man, and they instantly reacted and attacked together. Four streams of internal force from the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist Technique struck out at the same time.
Four internal forces of different colors fused together.
This was the complete technique of the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist. One punch could damage several major organs in the opponent’s body at the same time, and cause mental damage from seven different emotions.
It could be said to be a sinister technique that injured the opponent’s martial arts foundation.
Therefore, the Kunshan Sect was well-known in the Jiangnan province. Large sects of the same level were generally unwilling to clash with them.
“Boom!”
Internal force exploded from both sides at the same time.
Countless streams of energy shot in all directions.
“Bang…”
The hotel under their feet could not withstand the impact and collapsed in the blink of an eye.
“Interesting!”
As Chen Yiming fell to the ground, he carefully experienced the power of the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist.
He felt a strange power affecting his internal organs through the defense of his internal force.
However, perhaps because the resistance of the Level-1 Undying Body talent was too strong, the strange power dissipated completely without having much effect.
At the same time, the figure in his mind opened its eyes and swept its gaze across the spiritual world. The same strange power turned into black smoke and dissipated into the spiritual world.
“I seem to be able to perfectly restrain the effects of the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.
His physical recovery and resistance were extremely high, and he was least afraid of such unorthodox powers.
After all, this strange power had no defined source and could not be used against his powerful physique.
“Bang!”
The two sides landed on the ground of the island at the same time, creating eight holes in the ground. The distance between them widened to dozens of meters.
Cheng Shikun, Shi Qingxin, and Xu Zhansheng turned to escape after landing.
Chen Yiming slashed out again without hesitation.
He had already figured out the basics of the Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist Technique, so he did not hold back this time.
The four boulders formed a huge sword that spun as it stabbed at the four leaders of the Kunshan Sect not far away.
The four inner court heads led by Wang Zhiqing were focused on the masked man. They did not realize that the three court heads had already fled for their lives.
Although they were shocked by the other party’s overwhelming strength such that they were not at a disadvantage even though it was one against four, they did not have any intention of retreating. They were certain that they could wear out the other party since it was four against one.
Thus, they worked together to execute another Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist.
“How is that possible?”
The four of them had just made a move and were still in the posture of delivering a punch when they saw a huge sword that was longer than the distance between them charge towards them.
This was completely beyond their understanding. They had never seen anything like it before.
“Could he be at the level of the sect master?”
the four of them thought to themselves.
However, it was too late for them to dodge.
The huge sword behaved as though it had cut into tofu, easily breaking through the four streams of internal force that had fused together.
“Boom!”
At the last moment, the four of them unleashed all their potential and threw out another Five Labors and Seven Wounds Fist, trying to block the huge sword with their combined attack.
However, there was a limit to their strength. First, their protective internal force was shattered, and then their bodies were attacked by a huge force, as if a pyramid had appeared on their backs.
The four of them could not withstand it and were easily crushed by the huge force.
A large number of broken limbs flew in all directions, creating a continuous sound of water splashes.
“Boom!”
The huge sword that had crushed the four inner court heads of the Kunshan Sect crossed the lake and stabbed into a huge mountain on the other side of the lake.
A few seconds later, the mountain shook violently and collapsed into a pile of rubble. The rubble covered an area of two to three kilometers, and there were broken rocks dozens of meters in diameter scattered everywhere.
While the four inner court heads continued to attack the masked man, Cheng Shikun, Shi Qingxin, and Xu Zhansheng had split up and escaped a few kilometers away.
Hearing the tremors behind them, the three of them turned around at the same time and saw a huge mountain collapsing.
Using a sword to slash at the mountain showcased the destructive power of the third stage of the warrior realm.
“These four useless teammates.”
The three of them had dark expressions on their faces. They cursed under their breath and looked up in the direction of the Kunshan Sect. They unleashed all their potential and fled towards the sect.
Even if the masked man immediately chased after them, at least one or two of them would be able to escape back to the Kunshan Sect.
As long as they returned to the Kunshan Sect, the three of them would be able to obtain the protection of the sect master.
At the same time, the head of the Mantis Snake division, Zhou Xuesheng, and the head of the Chiji School, Su Xuyang, were both scared out of their wits. They no longer dared to stay nearby and help their sect masters monitor the movements of the porcelain bowl.
The two of them disappeared into the forest like frightened birds.
In a radius of a few kilometers around the island in the middle of the lake, the masked man was the only one left alone to quietly watch the few people who had fled in all directions.
Chen Yiming’s figure flashed as he quickly left the place.
