414: Killed several people
"No!"
A shrill scream echoed through the sky as the lightning palm directly obliterated Jia Lingling's Primordial Spirit.
All this happened extremely fast. Jia Yi watched with cold eyes, not feeling the slightest bit of surprise.
Her body flickered and vanished instantly; the figure holding the pitch-black iron chain disappeared at the same time.
Ji Wuchang hid within the Void Realm, his gaze indifferent as he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
[Ding! Congratulations, Master, for slaying Jia Lingling. Luck +515. Jia Lingling's Luck has been reset to zero!]
Hearing the System's voice, a slight curve formed at the corner of Ji Wuchang's mouth, his mood extremely pleasant.
He had first held the pitch-black iron chain himself, killing several people in a row. Just as he was about to strike again, he discovered Jia Lingling.
Ji Wuchang knew that the Void Phantom Technique could deceive others, but it could not deceive Jia Lingling, who had also cultivated it.
It just so happened that he also spotted Jia Yi nearby, so he decided to beat them at their own game.
In truth, if Jia Lingling had been more careful, he would have noticed Jia Yi's presence, but his mind was entirely focused on Ji Wuchang.
Ji Wuchang first created a Puppet Clone holding the iron chain to confuse everyone, as well as to deceive Jia Yi.
As expected, Jia Yi was fooled, as were the people from the Demonic Paths First Hall.
He had actually thought this Puppet Clone would surely be destroyed, but he hadn't expected the people from the Demonic Paths First Hall to intervene.
While this surprised Ji Wuchang, he immediately took advantage of the situation to attack Jia Lingling.
Jia Lingling's first reaction was indeed to kill Ji Wuchang's Puppet Clone holding the iron chain; he didn't see the hidden Jia Yi at all.
Jia Yi's long-premeditated sword strike almost took Jia Lingling's life!
But he was a Dao Severing Realm expert after all, and he managed to forcefully dodge the fatal blow.
However, he didn't expect that the person truly intending to kill him was Ji Wuchang, who launched a lethal strike.
Neither Jia Yi nor Ji Wuchang would allow Jia Lingling to live, because to them, this person was more dangerous than everyone else present!
After killing Jia Lingling, Ji Wuchang and Jia Yi immediately left and hid within the Void Realm!
All this seemed to take a long time, but in reality, it was only about two breaths, roughly six seconds.
By the time Ji Xiao, Ji Tianxiao, and the others reacted and wanted to strike, there was no trace of Ji Wuchang left!
At this moment, Ji Xiao and the others felt an extraordinary weight in their hearts. A hint of confusion appeared in their eyes; they didn't know what had just happened.
Jia Yi's appearance made them realize that the person who had just attacked was very likely Ji Wuchang.
But the weapon the opponent used was clearly the Soul-Hooking Chain unique to the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.
Suddenly, they thought of something. Not long ago, people from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls had appeared to kill Ji Wuchang.
In this moment, they understood. Ji Wuchang must have killed someone from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls and was being targeted by them!
Just as they figured it out, a pitch-black iron chain appeared again, directly piercing through a man's chest.
A shrill scream escaped the man's mouth. He stared in terror at the pitch-black iron chain protruding from his chest, his eyes filled with intense resentment.
"Ji Hong!"
Ji Xiao shouted loudly, his hands forming seals as terrifying spiritual power erupted from his body.
The surrounding water vapor gathered toward him, instantly condensing into countless raindrop swords that surged toward the direction where the iron chain had appeared.
The swords were dense, emitting a fearsome killing intent, and they plunged into the Void Realm before the iron chain could completely vanish.
"Great Sun Divine Fist!"
A soft shout came from the Void Realm as a blazing sun emerged, radiating terrifying heat.
Raging flames burned upon the sun, which crashed directly into the dense cluster of small swords.
With a loud boom, all the small swords exploded, and the water vapor was instantly evaporated by the terrifying heat.
Seeing this, the expressions of Pu Yongchang and Pu Yongming changed drastically. They hadn't expected the opponent to have grown to such a level!
The three figures of Ji Xiao, Ji Tianxiao, and Ji Chengren flickered like ghosts, instantly arriving at the spot where the iron chain had appeared, their eyes filled with cold killing intent.
The three of them showed no mercy, throwing a punch simultaneously.
Terrifying fist shadows layered upon one another, directly covering a radius of a hundred feet.
This was a fist technique that all Ji Family Disciples had to Cultivate, called the Ten Thousand Shadows Fist.
This technique originated from the Mountain Fist. It was far less heavy than the Mountain Fist, but it could manifest countless phantoms and had an extremely wide attack range.
The three of them unleashed it at once, covering a hundred-foot area with chilling killing intent.
Boom...
Countless fist shadows blanketed the sky, and a violent roar echoed through the heavens.
But the three were disappointed; they didn't sense any aura, which meant the opponent was no longer there.
Suddenly, Ji Xiao thought of something and shouted to Ji Yuan in the distance, "Ji Yuan, watch out!"
Just as he finished speaking, a figure appeared before Ji Yuan like a ghost, terrifying killing intent surging in his pitch-black eyes!
Horror filled Ji Yuan's eyes. His cultivation at the ninth level of the Six Gods Realm erupted as he raised his longsword and slashed down.
At the same time, Ji Yuan retreated rapidly, trying to put distance between himself and the opponent.
"Heart-Treading Step!"
A cold voice rang out as the black-clothed figure took a step forward, stomping hard on the void.
"Ah!"
A piercing pain made it impossible for Ji Yuan to restrain himself. He let out a scream, his face turning as pale as paper in an instant!
"Slaying Wind and Thunder!"
The cold voice sounded again. Thunder roared in the sky, and a bolt of lightning fell from above.
Ji Yuan looked up and saw a long blade shimmering with lightning appear before his eyes.
"No!"
Ji Yuan cried out in fear, but the lightning blade was as fast as a flash, cutting directly into the center of his forehead.
With a bang, Ji Yuan was split in two. Lightning raged across his body, and wisps of black smoke rose from the wound.
His Divine Soul couldn't even escape, having been sliced in half by the blade!
"Go to hell!"
Ji Tianxiao roared in rage, swinging his longsword at the black-clothed figure, his voice tinged with underlying fear!
Ji Wuchang gave Ji Tianxiao and the others a cold glance before his body faded and vanished without a trace.
Ji Tianxiao's sword strike hit the ground below, splitting a hill right down the middle!
[Ding! Congratulations, Master, for slaying Ji Hong. Luck +339. Ji Hong's Luck has been reset to zero!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Master, for slaying Ji Yuan. Luck +378. Ji Yuan's Luck has been reset to zero!]
Ji Wuchang appeared in the Void Realm. Jia Yi stood not far away, looking at Ji Wuchang with profound emotion.
He had grown too quickly; she was now far from being his match.
Moreover, this man's heart was as hard as iron, and his methods were terrifyingly extraordinary. Being enemies with someone like him, one probably wouldn't even be able to sleep soundly at night!
However, Jia Yi still didn't understand why he had also cultivated the Void Phantom Technique, and in a way that was even more fearsome than her own.
She had been puzzled by this question for several days, yet still had no answer!
