30: Chapter 30 The Death of Fu Yunjing
"Hahaha, child Fu Yunjing, since you have come, why the rush to leave?" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin saw Fu Yunjing enter the Formation and laughed happily.
Looking at the three figures appearing on the mountain peak, the last glimmer of hope in Fu Yunjing's heart was extinguished.
"Hehe, I did not expect that I would have the honor of fighting the three Elders of the Qi Family simultaneously today. Truly an honor."
"Yunjing, it has been thirty years since we last met, hasn't it? I did not expect that when we met again today, we would be crossing blades. Do not blame the Qi Family." Qi Xianbo looked at him, as if the scene of their last meeting was still echoing before his eyes.
At a Family gathering in Cangjiang Prefecture, an elegant middle-aged man followed the Fu Family Clan Chief to pay his respects to all parties one by one.
"Let's do it. Second brother, you preside over the Formation. Third brother, use long-range attacks to wear him down. Be careful, he might act like a cornered dog and drag someone down with him."
Qi Xianbo did not wait any longer, lest there be complications.
This battle had no personal vendetta; everything was for the Family. He absolutely would not allow the Fu Family to rise again.
4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe activated the Qiushan Ridge Death Formation, gathering Spiritual Qi into the Formation eye to enhance the Formation's attack power.
He used mountain rocks to block Fu Yunjing's range of movement.
The Qiushan Ridge Death Formation prioritized trapping the enemy first, and attacking second.
As a Low Grade Tier 4 Formation, it could easily withstand the attacks of a Late Stage Martial Ancestor for half an hour.
Fu Yunjing was only a 1-Star Martial Ancestor who had just achieved a Breakthrough not long ago; being trapped in this Formation meant the chances of survival were slim.
4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin threw out Tier 2 and High Grade Tier 3 Talismans as if they were worthless, occasionally activating a Tier 4 Talisman to hide among them.
He wanted to fish in troubled waters and heavily injure Fu Yunjing.
Fu Yunjing opened his Mental Energy to the fullest, dodging the attacks from all around.
Just a moment ago, he had been careless and was struck by a Tier 4 Talisman attack from 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin. Fortunately, he had activated three Tier 4 Golden Shield Protection Talismans early on; otherwise, he would have been severely injured.
Maintaining his Mental Energy at such high intensity caused it to be consumed at an alarming rate. If this continued, he estimated he would not be able to hold out for more than ten minutes before it was completely depleted.
Fu Yunjing observed the movements of the three: Qi Xianbo remained stationary, 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe was driving the Formation, and 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin was attacking him with Talismans, sometimes from near and sometimes from far.
He had to think of a way to disrupt their coordination.
In the blink of an eye, Fu Yunjing had a countermeasure and made a firm decision in his heart.
He would not survive today. The Qi Family really thought highly of him, three against one, and among them was a Middle Stage Martial Ancestor.
"It's you! I'll drag you down with me!"
When 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin approached him, Fu Yunjing suddenly erupted, his speed soaring three times, and he quickly closed in on 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin. The long sword in his hand shone with a brilliant red light; it was the Fu Family's Blazing Divine Light Sword.
The area a hundred meters in front was shrouded in scorching Sword Qi. 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin had nowhere to dodge and could only meet Fu Yunjing's move head-on.
4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe immediately tightened the Formation, worried that the Formation would hurt his third brother and give Fu Yunjing an opportunity.
Qi Xianbo finally moved, striking out with a palm towards Fu Yunjing's back.
Fu Yunjing ignored it and went straight for 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin.
"Third brother, retreat quickly! Fu Yunjing wants to die with you!" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe was anxious to death watching from the mountain peak.
Qi Xianbo was no longer as composed as before; he struck out several palms, breaking Fu Yunjing's remaining two Tier 4 Golden Shield Protection Talismans, forcing him to pay attention to the attack from behind.
"Success." A look of joy appeared on Fu Yunjing's face.
He turned around and blocked Qi Xianbo's attack with a sword strike, then activated all the Tier 4 Talismans on his body to attack Qi Xianbo.
Seeing the smile on Fu Yunjing's face, Qi Xianbo knew that things had gone wrong.
The person he truly wanted to die with was not 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin, but himself.
The two golden light protection Talismans on his body turned to ashes one after another, and his Tier 4 precious armor blocked a portion of the remaining attacks.
Then his body endured several strikes, and he even took Fu Yunjing's full-strength sword strike head-on.
"Big brother!"
Watching Qi Xianbo get sent flying, 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe and the other were furious. Ignoring everything else, they stepped into the Void Realm and rushed towards Qi Xianbo.
Fu Yunjing ignored them and went forward on his own. Using his essence blood as a guide, the red light on his sword flared up, and he slashed another sword strike at Qi Xianbo.
"Blazing Divine Light Sword — Bloodline as Shadow!"
Qi Xianbo was already seriously injured. He had been relying on his 5-Star Martial Ancestor cultivation to maintain his heart meridians. It was fine if he did not move, but once he did, his old wounds could no longer be suppressed.
He had just been hit head-on by Fu Yunjing's two Tier 4 Talismans, which disrupted his Spiritual Qi, and now he had been hit by Fu Yunjing's Bloodline sword strike.
Black blood was oozing from all over his body, and a shocking gully appeared on his chest where he had been slashed; one could vaguely see his internal organs inside.
"Cough, cough, cough. Truly, heroes emerge from the youth. Even this old man was deceived by you." Qi Xianbo coughed even more violently.
Looking at his two brothers stepping through the air towards him, he shook his head: "Don't come over. From now on, the Qi Family will depend on you two."
"Nephew Yunjing, you just slashed this old man with two sword strikes; now taste whether this old man's precious sword is sharp." Qi Xianbo completely released his Spiritual Qi suppression on his heart meridians, and his terrifying cultivation pressed down on Fu Yunjing.
Qi Xianbo wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth, smeared it on his green-glowing long sword, and struck forward with all his might.
"Clear Water Jade Sword — Bloodline as Shadow!"
The long sword broke through the air. Fu Yunjing opened all his defenses, dodging left and right, trying to avoid the attack of this sword.
But it was all in vain; this green-glowing precious sword had already locked onto him, and he could only take this sword head-on.
As soon as Fu Yunjing's precious sword touched the green-glowing precious sword, it snapped into two with a crisp sound. The green-glowing long sword drove straight in, piercing into Fu Yunjing's chest.
"Is this the strength of a 5-Star Martial Ancestor?" Fu Yunjing murmured.
The attack was unavoidable. One sword strike broke his defenses, one sword strike severely injured him.
How laughable that he thought he could... cough, cough, cough...
Qi Xianbo looked at the Fu Yunjing before him and said indifferently: "You should feel proud to die under this sword."
"Is that so?"
A vortex of Spiritual Qi exploded at Fu Yunjing's Dantian, swallowing both of them.
Looking at this old man covered in black blood, the corners of his mouth remained in a smile, as if he had known all along that he would self-destruct.
Fu Yunjing had done his best!
A few years ago, he achieved a Breakthrough to Martial Ancestor, originally thinking he could revitalize the Family, but he did not expect...
"Big brother!" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe held Qi Xianbo's body and cried out heart-wrenchingly.
"Xian..." Qi Xianbo raised his hand, wanting to grip 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe's right hand, but in the end, he could not reach it.
"Uncle Yunjing!" When Fu Yihang arrived, the battle had already ended; he only saw that Fu Yunjing's self-destruction had blown both of them away.
"Little beast, I'll slaughter you first!" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin saw Fu Yihang and said furiously.
Regardless of the yellow-clothed middle-aged man standing beside him, he raised his blade and slashed over.
"Clang!"
The yellow-clothed man said nothing and severed 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin's sword-wielding arm with one sword strike: "What, has Elder Qi become so arrogant that he cannot even see this Sun?"
"Third brother!" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe looked at 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin's severed arm with heartache and roared at the yellow-clothed middle-aged man: "Surname Sun, what is the meaning of this?"
"What is the meaning of this? I should be asking you what the meaning of this is!" Sun Chengzong said displeasedly: "When Qiushan Ridge was sold to your Qi Family back then, what was said?"
"Now you are openly using our Sun Family's name to commit such improper acts, ruining our Sun Family's reputation. Do you think there is no one left in our Sun Family?"
"Fine, fine, fine. Is my third brother's arm enough compensation now?" 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe laughed miserably.
"Hmph, let this be a lesson. Otherwise, it won't just be a matter of one arm."
"Third brother, let's go." 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianzhe picked up Qi Xianbo's corpse in grief and indignation and flew into the air.
"Let's go." Seeing 4-Star Martial Ancestor Qi Xianxin still looking at his severed hand that was being stepped on by Sun Chengzong, he called out again.
Sun Chengzong clearly did not want him to recover his severed hand. Otherwise, with the cultivation of a Martial Ancestor and the help of Spirit Pills, it would not be fully restored, but there would still be hope for 70-80% recovery.
"Nephew, please accept my condolences."
