Chapter 128 Flaming jade talisman
Long Yu was pacing through the canyon. He looked ahead and saw a snow covered white forest, stretched everywhere beyond limits.
Mongolian soldiers were fleeing into the forest and the panic had given rise to chaos and stampede.
“Just because one of the five assistant generals died and two of them retreated, they decided to retreat in such a hurry? I don’t buy that. There’s still a possibility of ambush ……”
Long Yu was vigilant while he continued to pursue the escaping Mongolian army. He soon found Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind who were escaping together.
“These two are old veterans of assistant general rank. They definitely know the whereabouts of foster father.”
Long Yu stimulated the circulation of Xuan qi in the Demon Wings and instantly turned into a streamer of white light, quickly approaching Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind!
The two enemy assistant generals saw Long Yu closing in and their own soldiers running around in circles due to the terror and confusion created by Long Yu’s scary demeanor. Both Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind changed their course of escape and ran towards a remote region, separating from the main army formation.
This scene made Long Yu more vigilant than before.
He could tell that something was fishy!
Even so, Long Yu would not miss this good opportunity to catch them. And even if he encountered a dangerous situation in which he was unable to resist, he still had an excellent escape method!
“If you want me to follow, I will gladly fulfill your last wish.”
Long Yu further extended his white wings and flew through the snow white mountain woods, quickly closing in on the two assistant generals.
The two men were fleeing more rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, they turned sideways to the side of a small valley and went in.
The small snow valley was hosting a mountain forest that was full of bare tree trunks. The whole atmosphere looked extremely lonesome and cold.
“Oh, is this the so-called ambush in the valley? I am not impressed gentlemen.”
Long Yu was ready to have fun with those two. He flapped his wings and glided into that small valley!
As soon as he entered the valley, immediately, a burst of flames welcomed him with open arms and his whole body was almost swallowed by the sea of flames.
“This is flame type Zhenling!”
Long Yu said in his heart and instantly swept the dragon spear, thereby invoking the fierce coercion of Zhentian domain that created a path through the sea of flames!
“Ha ha ha, I finally caught you.”
An arrogant but familiar laughter entered Long Yu’s ears and he immediately came to know whom it belonged to.
This was none other than Hua Fu, the son of Zang Fire Temple’s lord!
When Long Yu used to be at Wudao ninth layer, he had once killed a disciple of Zang Fire Temple named Xiahou Tianjie who was at Zhenling first layer at the time of his death.
Most importantly, Long Yu seized the lunar debris and also got away from under his nose!
That was why Huo Fu held a grudge against him.
His attack coincided with Mongolian State’s invasion because he had also come here to kill enemies and earn merits but he heard that Long Yu had also come here. He immediately had an idea of setting up a trap for Long Yu!
“Huo Fu, I never thought that the son of dignified Zang Fire Temple’s lord will go so far as to collude with Mongolian State. I truly admire and respect you.”
Long Yu’s mocking smile was quite splendid but his smirk revealed a deep disdain for Huo Fu.
The enmity between him and Huo Fu could at best be regarded as an enmity between two disciples of rival sects, however, Huo Fu actually colluded with Mongolian generals to ambush him. This could even be considered as treason!
He looked around and found out that several other fire traps were hidden in the valley. It must have taken a lot of time to prepare such an extravagant ambush.
Long Yu’s mocking smile acted as a spark to ignite Huo Fu’s anger. His whole body suddenly began to burn with hot flames jumping and dancing around him. A flagitious cruel look was visible in his eyes and he was looking at Long Yu as if looking at a dead man.
“In order to become a king, sometimes you need the help from enemy. It has been like this since ancient times! Today you will die and I will be the biggest winner. And who would even bother investigating how you got killed on a battlefield?”
Huo Fu sneered and his bloodthirsty eyes flashed maliciously: “Now, time for you to say goodbye to this world.”
As his voice fell down, the two assistant generals also arrived on the scene with cruel smiles spread across their faces.
Long Yu was right about three of them being together in this!
Three experts of Zhenling second layer had suddenly besieged Long Yu, increasing the pressure on him all of a sudden.
Although Long Yu killed an assistant general some time ago but only by taking advantage of his confusion and using nine hidden dragon fist to finish him off in one fell swoop.
Now, however, three experts of Zhenling second layer had joined forces against him. One must know that together they could actually contend with an expert of Zhenling third layer!
Even Long Yu did not dare to ignore the gravity of this situation because now the other side had the ability to kill him, unless he decided to use his hidden trump card, Nine Hidden Dragon’s Zhenling.
But the two armies were not far from here and what if someone was peeping when Long Yu exposed his secret of having dual Zhenling?
If news about it spread then a lot of people would want him dead!
“Anyway, I cannot risk exposing my secret so better use what is available ……”
Long Yu thought and looked at them with his eyes full of dignified color.
“Good, let’s finish this quickly. Three of us together can kill this boy very easily.”
A sinister smile appeared on Lucci Wind’s face and a hurricane spirit appeared behind him. Since his Zhenling had already been defeated once by Long Yu a while ago, this hurricane spirit was not as potent as it was earlier.
“How dare you gang up on my junior!”
A sudden unruly laughter sounded accompanied by an eagle cry which echoed in the valley.
An enormous coercion descended from the sky and enveloped both Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind!
“Brother Bu!”
Long Yu was quite delighted to see him here!
Although he should have been able to handle the situation without Bu Xing’s help, now the whole thing became much more convenient.
“Yup, I am here, little brother.”
Long Yu turned his head and saw Bu Xing pacing toward him from behind.
Eagle spirit was flying behind Bu Xing, and as soon as the coercion of Zhentian influence enveloped Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind, their complexions changed all of a sudden.
They were no match for an expert of Zhenling third layer!
“Brother Bu, where is the senior general of Mongolian army?”
Long Yu asked Bu Xing.
“He ran away and since I was worried about you, so I followed you here. I never expected to see such a trap prepared for you though.”
Bu Xing’s sharp eyes were fixed on Huo Fu as he said: “Huo Fu, you are the young lord of Zang Fire Temple and you actually colluded with Mongolian State to kill Brother Long. This is treason, a crime punishable by death!”
“Cut the crap, today I will burn this boy to crisp.”
There was a cruel look on Huo Fu’s face and he did not care about what Bu Xing just said. He just glared at Long Yu and said: “Brat, you should be honored to know that in order to deal with you, I requested father to let me borrow a spiritual level top-grade battle weapon, Flaming jade talisman. You have the honor of being killed by a spiritual level top-grade weapon, be proud of yourself.”
After that he shook his hands a little, the talisman exploded into flames and began to burn violently.
Spiritual level top-grade battle weapon!
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and thought that this talisman was on the same level as his dragon spear used to be earlier. So, its might was naturally going to be extraordinary.
Not to mention, Huo Fu was at Zhenling second layer and obviously possessed larger basic strength and also had a bigger stock of Xuan qi than Long Yu, so a spiritual level top-grade weapon was going to increase his overall might drastically!
“Die, you brat!”
Flaming jade talisman sent a burst of flames toward Long Yu!
Bu Xing saw the intensity of this flame attack and frowned. He just wanted to get rid of those two assistant generals who were trying their best to pin him down.
“Hurricane rampage!”
Lucci Wind shouted and the hurricane spirit went against the coercion of Zhentian influence and curled upon Bu Xing.
“Stone Pillar, attack!”
Ge Cheng also sent his stone pillar spirit in the direction of Bu Xing!
Their basic strengths, when put together, were still slightly lower than Bu Xing’s strength but while facing their converging well-timed attacks, he really couldn’t ignore them or take them lightly.
“Eagle, suppression!”
Bu Xing snorted and sent his eagle spirit to tackle the other two Zhenling spirits coming at him. Meanwhile, he also used soul moving fist, a spiritual level skill, and threw his fist at the approaching hurricane.
The battle between three Zhenlings was soul-stirring and even Bu Xing’s power was tyrannical, but at the same time, Ge Cheng and Lucci Wind were war veterans and could not be underestimated.
On the other side, Huo Fu and Long Yu were battling!
“Flaming jade talisman, three-way heavenly fire explosion!”
The Flaming jade talisman hurled a large mass of fire along with the flames that exploded out of Huo Fu’s body and the coercion flames of his Zhenling. Three groups of terrifying flames assaulted Long Yu from three different directions and exploded in mid-air.
“This is a spiritual level skill from Fire Temple!”
Long Yu was truly impressed by this martial skill.
Considering his present strength and defense, he simply could not sustain this attack!
“Demon Wings!”
Long Yu used his white wings and ghost flash at the same time to enhance his speed dramatically!
Long Yu’s figure blurred and he turned into a streamer of light and easily escaped from this fire explosion.
“So fast.”
Huo Fu looked at the white wings and felt that this battle weapon was definitely not inferior to his own, otherwise, it should have been impossible for Long Yu to escape from his fire blast attack.
However, having such a lighting fast speed was not a final solution to the problem called fire explosion.
“Your speed is lightning fast, but so what? I’ll just set the entire world on fire and see where you will try to hide.”
Huo Fu’s eyes flashed with a ruthless color and he stimulated the Flaming jade talisman. Long Yu saw countless string-like flames rapidly emerging from it and proliferating in all directions.
These firewires were actually like a spider web, spreading all over the sky and suddenly crawled toward Long Yu to entrap him!
“This martial skill is considered the best in the arsenal of Fire Temple. It is called Spider’s Fire Web.”
Huo Fu made this move with full confidence. Now, Long Yu had nowhere to hide!
So long as he managed to kill Long Yu, he was not afraid of Bu Xing because he had actually received orders to kill Long Yu directly from Tang State’s Major General, Long Ji!
