My power increases 100 Jin a Day-Chapter 364 - 178: 100-Fold Dragon Elephant! Invincible Might! (Part 2)
"Very well, with your talent and physique, leaving this world is indeed the best choice."
Chen Xuantian said.
"Old Sect Leader, will you not depart with me?"
Jiang Shi asked, "Perhaps the continent across that strait holds unspeakable fortunes that could heal your dark injuries."
"It’s of no use, I know my injuries best. They are deep in my bones, beyond the help of medicine or food. My lifespan has reached its end; the remaining years are enough for me to live in peace."
Chen Xuantian was philosophical, shaking his head as he spoke.
In his lifetime, he had endured too many storms and vicissitudes. Facing death, he finally comprehended everything.
Jiang Shi pondered for a moment and said, "What if the people from the Celestial Demon Headquarters want to command the Sect Leader, what is to be done then?"
"Command? Let them be. I am a dying man; they won’t choose me as a spokesperson. If they want to control the Black Lotus Holy Sect, so be it. After all these years, the Black Lotus Holy Sect has never escaped their grasp; it’s merely a return to the origin. Even entering the Nine Springs, I will not feel ashamed in front of our ancestors."
Chen Xuantian said calmly.
"Very well."
Jiang Shi responded, suddenly frowning and quickly turning around, "Who?"
Whoosh!
A black lightning bolt suddenly swept in from his rear, like a poisonous snake, swift and fierce, carrying an eerie dark energy that lashed towards Jiang Shi’s body.
The shadow was silent, yet contained enormous power.
Even Jiang Shi’s eyes narrowed involuntarily.
He wanted to dodge, but if he did, the Chen Xuantian behind him would inevitably be struck. In that instant, Jiang Shi reached out with lightning speed, trying to grasp it, but the black lightning was exceptionally cunning. The moment his hand moved, it abruptly changed direction, transforming from a horizontal lash to a forward stab, still incredibly fast.
Jiang Shi let out a cold snort, his [Insight] talent activating, making the world before him seem to slow down. His hand swiftly changed tactics, striking out with a palm.
Boom!!
A thunderous explosion echoed throughout the courtyard.
Explosions erupted all around.
Jiang Shi’s body shook, instantly dissipating all the power from his palm. His expression was cold as he looked towards the black lightning.
The black lightning, after being struck by him, instantly retreated, transforming into a pitch-black long whip. The other end of the whip was held by a tall woman with a sleek, tailored outfit, sharp features, cold and piercing eyes, and notably powerful long legs.
"Not bad!"
The woman spoke with an icy tone.
As her voice fell, three more figures appeared beside her, all men, varying in age and appearance.
"As expected of the Innate Vajra, truly skilled. I was skeptical at first, but now I must believe it."
One of the men said lightly.
"Innate Vajra is rare even in the Great World, and yet two have appeared consecutively on a mere wasteland. It is indeed remarkable."
Another somewhat older, more mature man spoke.
"Young man, I heard you used a method to manipulate lightning to kill the Northern Zhou High Priest? What is that method? Where did you learn it?"
The third man was very cold, with a thin body and a sharp chin.
He gave an indescribably harsh impression.
Jiang Shi frowned, coldly observing the suddenly appeared four people, but before he could speak, urgent footsteps were heard from outside the courtyard.
Situ Yan, Dong Biao, and Liu Lu, who had disappeared before, hurried over.
"Sect Leader Jiang, do not act rashly!"
Situ Yan hurriedly spoke out, "They are all descendants of the Upper Hall Elders, sent here to assist. Pay your respects immediately!"
"Descendants of the Upper Hall Elders?"
Jiang Shi said indifferently, "Are the descendants of the Upper Hall Elders so arrogant?"
"Insolent!"
The woman with the black whip suddenly raised her sharp eyebrows and shouted sternly, her whip whistling out again, swift as lightning, instantly appearing with eight afterimages.
All eight afterimages seemed real, emitting piercing sounds, lashing fiercely towards Jiang Shi’s body, unbelievably fast.
However, in Jiang Shi’s eyes, the origin was instantly perceived, ignoring all the afterimages. Once again, he punched out, landing precisely on the real whip shadow in the middle.
Snap!
Another explosion sounded, reverberating all around.
Jiang Shi stepped back, his sleeve in tatters, his expression cold, and unavoidable was a faint blood mark on his fist.
This whip was extraordinary!
The materials used must be remarkable!
Otherwise, his flesh wouldn’t be injured.
"Humph, arrogant!"
The woman with the black whip snorted disdainfully.
"Enough, Yun Sha, stop it now. We are not here to cause internal strife. Do not forget the orders of the headquarters. No matter what, Jiang Shi is a master of our branch, one of us, who eliminated a formidable enemy. We should commend him, rather than be aggressive, lest we disgrace the Celestial Demon Headquarters." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
The slightly mature man in the middle spoke in a deep tone.
The woman named Yun Sha furrowed her brows, refraining from further words, but her eyes remained domineering and aloof, coldly staring at Jiang Shi.
"Sect Leader Jiang, you killed the Northern Zhou High Priest; this is a great achievement. We will record it, and when we return to the headquarters, there will undoubtedly be rewards. Besides, the headquarters has issued further orders to support the Black Lotus Holy Sect to unify Great Xuan. Therefore, the upcoming tasks will still require relying on Sect Leader Jiang. As long as you accomplish this major task, whatever Sect Leader Jiang desires will be yours, even the Holy Spirit Pill is not impossible!"
