One-Star Fairy: Phoenix Winged Black Tiger
Jie Nu, ranked fourteenth on the Dragon Phoenix Ranking, was indeed formidable. Zhuge Xiang could sense his power the moment they met. Although he was not yet comparable to the Nascent Soul Deity Transformation Cultivator of the Qingxu Sword Sect, he was much stronger than Wu Xuefei. No wonder Jie Nu had the right to call Wu Xuefei a piece of trash.
However, Zhuge Xiang at this moment was much stronger than when he fought Wu Xuefei during the day. With his Spear Intent and Demonic True Body unleashed, plus the 50% attribute boost from the Night Emblem, even without using the Devourer's Treasure Skill, Zhuge Xiang could Jie Nu to a standstill.
Combat power, defense, reaction speed, Attack Speed, Movement Speed, and so on—all attributes are increased by 50%. This is not as simple as one plus one equals two.
With his Staff Intent imbued with intense power, and further enhanced by the divine strength of the Tiger Subduing Arhat, Jie Nu's strength was indeed formidable, even terrifying. Every move he made was like that of the king of beasts, giving people a sense of unparalleled power.
However, the Night Emblem's Effect also made Zhuge Xiang incredibly powerful. In the clash between the Spear and the staff, the two fought to a standstill, with neither gaining the upper hand.
"Hahaha, Zhuge Xiang, so your strength is nothing more than this? I really doubt how you managed to kill Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator back then. If your strength is only this much, then I could kill you right here today!" The monk Jie Nu, who had fought a hundred moves without being defeated, laughed loudly, his voice like a morning bell.
"If your strength is only this much, you wouldn't be leaving today," Zhuge Xiang said calmly and coldly to Jie Nu's words. Jie Nu was indeed strong. However, Zhuge Xiang, whose overall attributes had increased by 50%, was equally formidable.
"Haha. I knew it. Your strength couldn't be that little. Quickly show me your strongest power..." Hearing that Zhuge Xiang's strength was obviously more than that, Jie Nu was overjoyed. As he spoke, Jie Nu's aura changed again, and even a Phantom Image of the Tiger Subduing Arhat appeared behind him.
"You have such strength that it's worth my full effort to kill you." Looking at the Phantom Image Arhat Jie Nu and sensing his increasingly powerful aura, Zhuge Xiang's eyes surged with intense fighting spirit.
As he finished speaking, the Devourer's Treasure Skill was activated. Now, with his Jie Nu, his strength had increased by at least 30% compared to before. Without the Devourer's Treasure skill, Zhuge Xiang truly wouldn't be a match for him...
Although he hasn't used the Bloodthirsty Technique or taken the last of the Berserk Bear Secret Medicine, who was Zhuge Xiang's opponent back then? It was a Deity Transformation stage expert, and moreover, Divine Ability Realm Third Layer stage cultivator. Now, with the Devourer's Treasure and the Night Emblem's enhancement, Zhuge Xiang Jie Nu.
Once Zhuge Xiang unleashes his Devourer's Treasure Skill, coupled with the Night Emblem's Effect, Jie Nu will truly be no match for him. Although Jie Nu 'Zhuge Xiang Coiled Dragon Staff is Damaged Treasure Artifact, he also wears a string of Treasure Artifact- grade Buddhist beads around his neck, which can imprison the target.
However, the effect of the confinement was precisely canceled by the effect of the True King Necklace. In just the time it takes to drink Half a Tea Interval of tea, under Zhuge Xiang's all-out attack, Jie Nu was quickly injured and even lost his fighting ability.
Crunch, crunch...
Buddhist prayer beads? Such Treasure Artifact might come in handy later. Zhuge Xiang put them away without any hesitation. As for the damaged Coiled Dragon Staff Treasure Artifact? Its attributes weren't much better than the Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear. Zhuge Xiang grabbed it like a lollipop and devoured it. Jie Nu, while feeling sorry for him, was completely Jie Nu. He was actually eating Damaged Treasure Artifact like Food. Such a scene was indeed quite shocking.
"Ding! You have defeated the Elite target Jie Nu at the Tenth Layer of Return to Simplicity Realm, gaining 2.2 million experience points and obtaining the Scout Headband."
As Zhuge Xiang defeated Zhuge Xiang Jie Nu, before he could even deliver the final blow, a system notification sounded in his mind. With 2.2 million Experience Points credited to his account, Zhuge Xiang, who was already close to the Fifth Layer of Innate Realm, instantly reached the Fifth Layer of Innate Realm.
His internal Qi Energy became more profound, and with the improvement of his cultivation, Zhuge Xiang took another solid step towards the Return to Simplicity Realm.
"It seems your strength is nothing special. Go away in peace..." Zhuge Xiang chewed the last piece of the Coiled Dragon Staff in his mouth. Then, Zhuge Xiang the Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear in his hand, a chilling killing intent spreading from his eyes. Although he admired Jie Nu's fighting spirit, which was similar to Zhang Kuang Jie Nu, an enemy is an enemy. Even if he admired him, he could not let him live.
"You, who can kill Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, are indeed beyond my ability to deal with..." Faced with death, Jie Nu showed no fear whatsoever, but instead spoke with an expression of utter certainty.
"I didn't expect that your strength, combined with that Monster Beast pet, is your strongest form. However, do you think I would come looking for you without being fully prepared, given that you were able to kill Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator?"
"Oh? What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" Zhuge Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Jie Nu, but did not rush to make a move.
Was it enough for Lu Yuling to specifically warn him of the crisis, that he was defeated so easily? Zhuge Xiang himself found it impossible, so he wasn't surprised that there was a backup plan for Jie Nu.
Zhuge Xiang wasn't surprised at all? His reaction startled Jie Nu slightly, making him feel uneasy. However, at this point, Jie Nu had no other choice. Besides, although Zhuge Xiang was strong, Jie Nu was still very confident in his own trump cards.
Raising his head, Jie Nu shouted at the gray night sky over the Ancient Qin Battlefield, "What are you waiting for? Come down and make your move!"
"Is someone up there?" Following Jie Nudao's gaze, Zhuge Xiang looked up, but the gray night sky made it impossible to see anything. Even with Zhuge Xiang's cultivation and Eagle Eye Technique, there was nothing he could do.
Roar!!!
However, at that moment, a loud whistling sound suddenly rang out, and a black shadow streaked across the gray night sky, almost imperceptible. Its surging Demonic Qi made people's hearts pound. In just a moment, the black shadow was fully revealed in front of Zhuge Xiang, and finally showed its True Appearance of Mount Lu.
This is a black tiger, but its body is exceptionally robust, comparable to a water buffalo. The black tiger has jet-black fur that seems to absorb even light. Most terrifying of all is the pair of enormous wings on the back of this black tiger, which are slowly flapping.
The wind follows the dragon, the clouds follow the tiger; the appearance of this black tiger even caused the smoke, which seemed to speak of killing intent, to surge.
"No matter how strong you are, you can't possibly be a match for this Phoenix Winged Black Tiger. It's One-Star Middle Grade- grade one-star Fairy," Jie Nu said confidently to Zhuge Xiang, completely relieved as he watched the enormous black tiger appear. (To be continued...)
