Chapter 399 Taste the power of the true form, Spirit King!
A clone of Luo Jun has appeared!
Zhuge Lang's projection had previously used other projections of his companions once, but this was the first time his true body had summoned Luo Jun's projection!
Upon appearing, Luo Jun's clone immediately opened the Hundred Treasure Box, took out the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and the Longitudinal and Horizontal Warhorse, and then in the next instant, Luo Jun's original body rushed over and punched the clone in the abdomen.
If Zhuge Lang's ability is based on a living person, the resurrected person will be much stronger than the original person in terms of basic physical abilities, as an enhancement gained by overdrawing one's life force.
But if the corpse is used as the price, then the resurrected clone will have its Root Bone, spirituality, and temperament all based on the deceased...
In other words, the Luo Jun clone at this time was merely a flawed product that inherited the red-haired boy's body and acquired Luo Jun's abilities and experience.
What's even more fatal is that Luo Jun has no ability at all. He himself is not even at the Heart Refining Realm. The level of this clone is much weaker than the one summoned by projection in the previous round, and it is far inferior to the original!
With a single punch, the clone was blasted apart... Yes, literally. Under Luo Jun's terrifying power, the clone's entire lower body was shattered. Although it didn't die on the spot, it had completely lost its Combat Power, and its mangled body lay on the ground, barely clinging to life.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Luo Jun grabbed his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, mounted his Longitudinal and Horizontal Warhorse, and leaped after Death Gun, who was not far away!
Sensing danger, the sniper immediately raised his gun and fired a shot at him Luo Jun spurred his horse and leaped aside to dodge, but the bullet veered off course and chased after him from behind.
But at this moment, Luo Jun suddenly unleashed a burst of energy, spurring his horse forward and creating distance between himself and the bullet behind him for a fleeting instant. He arrived in front of Death Gun, raised his blade, and cleaved him in two! The thick clothes fell away, revealing twisted, inhuman limbs. The cross-section showed the internal organs, which were completely different from those of an ordinary person.
They certainly seem to be Polluter from the Savage Wilderness.
However, Luo Jun didn't have time to admire the guy's corpse. He only glanced at it briefly before rushing towards the nearest purple-haired woman!
Upon seeing this, the purple-haired woman immediately concealed herself, clearly a Illusion Faction!
However, Luo Jun frowned, his ears twitched slightly, and relying on the ability he gained from his Perception Over Hundred, he keenly detected the non-visible spectrum caused by the woman's body temperature!
Luo Jun wasn't very skilled at this technique, and he couldn't achieve the same accuracy as a thermal imager. He didn't usually use it for convenience. But this time, being so close, and with the faint sound of footsteps helping him pinpoint the location, he almost instantly identified the other person's location. Without even stopping his horse, he only slightly adjusted the direction and caught up with the invisible woman!
The woman still intended to resist, summoning more than a dozen illusory clones to try and confuse the situation, while also taking out a long spear to try and block!
However, Luo Jun's sharp eyes didn't even glance at the clones. He focused on the woman and slashed her with his sword. With a crack, he cut her and the gun in two!
"Just a simple Invisibility Technique... If it were an assassination ability, I might find it troublesome..." Luo Jun muttered, then continued chasing after the next person!
Just then, three Ghost Shadow rushed towards him with shrill screams!
It's Zhuge Lang! Last time, this guy used this very move to kill Luo Jun's projection and even steal his soul!
Luo Jun knew how powerful this evil spirit was, so he spurred his horse and dodged around it, continuing to charge towards the long-haired man with an effeminate air!
Besides Zhuge Lang, this guy is the only one left on the scene!
The long-haired man finally realized what was happening. Seeing his teammates die in the blink of an eye, he knew he was no match for Luo Jun, so he simply activated his intangibility, becoming immune to most attacks!
Unfortunately, this wasn't the first time Luo Jun had seen this move. He immediately activated his Mental Intimidation, and the long-haired man in his ethereal state screamed in agony as his body began to flicker, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure and about to revert to his physical form!
He wasn't the only one affected; the three Soul-Reaping Vengeful Ghost behind Luo Jun were also subdued by the pressure, spinning around in place while screaming in agony. It seems this Mental Intimidation is indeed a powerful weapon against spirits!
But at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Luo Jun, wielding two sharp swords, one long and one short, and thrust them at him!
Upon closer inspection, Luo Jun realized it was indeed Zhuge Lang. However, his bald head had more wrinkles, making him look much older than before, clearly indicating that the three Soul-Reaping Vengeful Ghost had taken a toll on him.
Luo Jun's original intention was to eliminate the others first and deal with him last. Since he had been delivered to Luo Jun's doorstep, he didn't mind changing the order. Facing the Uneven Sword thrusting at him, he directly raised his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and slashed down!
As the saying goes, one force can overcome ten techniques. Luo Jun did not believe that anyone under the influence of the Feather Transformation realm could be stronger than him. If you dare to take this blow, at worst you will be injured. If you try to fight me head-on and exchange injuries, you will be courting death. If you try to run away, I will continue to deal with this ethereal long-haired man!
Faced with Luo Jun's attack, Zhuge Lang crossed his two swords above his head in an attempt to block!
Then let's see if you can stop it!
Luo Jun mustered all his strength and slashed down. With a clang, sparks flew everywhere, and a powerful force surged into his palm, making Luo Jun's Luo Jun's mouth go numb. Even the Longitudinal and Horizontal Warhorse beneath him couldn't withstand the strong recoil and staggered back several steps!
Looking at the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade again, the hilt trembled incessantly, emitting a buzzing sound, and a noticeable nick appeared on the blade!
But look at Zhuge Lang, he still maintains the posture of raising his two swords, not moving at all, and even the ground beneath his feet is not damaged!
That's impossible!
Luo Jun knew the power of his strike. Although the Azure Dragon Crescent Moon was only Epic-level weapon, it had almost no special effects other than its hardness, indicating that its strength was at least comparable to a legendary-level treasure! If such a treasure could shatter its blade, even if a person could withstand the force, the ground he was standing on could not possibly withstand it!
It must be a special effect, a weapon effect! Thinking this, Luo Jun, enduring the pain and numbness, gripped the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade tightly, spurred his warhorse, and prepared to try again!
But taking advantage of this moment, Zhuge Lang suddenly put down his twin swords, shouted loudly, and two more Vengeful Ghost flew out from behind him, heading straight for Luo Jun! At the same time, due to the backlash, Luo Jun's Mental Intimidation involuntarily stopped, and the three Vengeful Ghost behind him also flew towards him. Unable to dodge in time, all five Vengeful Ghost simultaneously entered Luo Jun's body!
Looking at Zhuge Lang again, several more wrinkles appeared on his face instantly. He coughed, and even a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth!
The Spirit King was risking his life to kill him!
As the five Vengeful Ghost entered his body, Luo Jun suddenly felt an indescribable unease, depression, and despair. His whole body ached and throbbed, as if he had just finished running a marathon and then heard the news of his grandfather's death. He felt utterly exhausted, as if there was no hope in the world, and even had the urge to end his life!
However, Luo Jun knew that these were just Zhuge Lang's tricks. He immediately accelerated the circulation of his vital energy and activated his Mental Intimidation to instantly clear away these negative emotions!
Just as he came to his senses, two cold glints appeared before his eyes, and two Uneven Sword, one long and one short, were already thrusting towards him. In a panic, Luo Jun threw the dice!
This was the first time he had used dice since arriving here!
There's no need to use your trump card in a battle against the weak... Luo Jun himself didn't seem to realize that, facing the Peak Expert Spirit King who had driven a group of A-level contestants to despair, he was even subconsciously scrutinizing his opponent with an air of superiority!
But that parry just now made him realize that the pair of swords in his opponent's hands were no ordinary items. He wondered what other magical effects they might have, and being stabbed by them could be disastrous!
"Ding! Event Difficulty 72 points, Final Points 69 + 5 points, Event Success!"
As the notification sound rang out, Luo Jun leaned back to avoid the Uneven Sword, but Zhuge Lang flicked his wrist, changing the sword's trajectory and slashing down after him!
This reaction... is wrong!
Luo Jun noticed that Zhuge Lang's eyes didn't seem to be fully following his when he made this change of move. This change of move was not an improvisation, but a pre-planned move!
This move was unexpected by Luo Jun. He was lying on the back of the horse and had no time to dodge. He could only watch as the sword came down and use his internal energy to defend himself!
But at that moment, Luo Jun suddenly felt a void behind him, and his body fell into a state of weightlessness!
The Longitudinal and Horizontal Warhorse has vanished? My palm is empty, and the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade is gone too!
Luo Jun immediately realized that the clone he had left alive was dead, its body had dissipated, and the two pieces of stolen equipment had also disappeared!
But this disappearance gave Luo Jun room to dodge. He twisted his body in mid-air to avoid the two swords, then somersaulted to the ground and charged at Zhuge Lang with his bare hands!
Zhuge Lang was startled when his sword missed its mark. He had dealt with the Masked Man with just three Vengeful Ghost last time, and using five this time should have been foolproof. However, just to be on the safe side, he still attacked while the man was momentarily stunned by the attack. But to his utter surprise, the man not only wasn't killed by the Vengeful Ghost, but he also recovered so quickly and dodged his attack!
How is that possible!
Last time it only took three to solve the problem, how come this time...?
Zhuge Lang immediately realized a startling fact: whether it was the record of quickly killing many people or the power of instantly dispelling five Vengeful Ghost, it showed that the guy in front of him was much stronger than the previous projection!
He's gotten this much stronger in just two rounds? Impossible! Even if he broke through a realm during this time, he shouldn't have improved this much. Besides, the strength he displayed before was clearly at the Peak Level. It's impossible for him to have Feather Transformation in just a few hours, right?
There was no time for him to think. Luo Jun's fist was already upon him. In desperation, Zhuge Lang could only cross his swords to block. Luo Jun's fist was imbued with thick qi, slamming into Zhuge Lang's swords. This time, the force was not blocked. Zhuge Lang felt an irresistible force travel from his wrists throughout his body, causing his internal organs to tremble. With a "poof," he spat out a mouthful of blood and was then sent flying backward by the monstrous strength, crashing through several load-bearing pillars in the parking lot before finally embedding his body in the wall.
Luo Jun frowned slightly. This time it didn't block? That means the blocking ability was an active skill... then there's nothing to fear!
After knocking Zhuge Lang away, Luo Jun turned to look at the long-haired man again. This guy was still in his ethereal state and was currently running away.
A Mental Intimidation was unleashed, and the boy immediately screamed in agony, then clutched his head and squatted on the ground, his body convulsing as he materialized.
Luo Jun immediately rushed up and killed him. He then turned to look for Zhuge Lang, only to find a huge hole in the wall; the man was gone.
They escaped? So quietly?
Luo Jun carefully observed the area around the parking lot, but noticed nothing amiss. Suddenly, an explosion rang out overhead!
Luo Jun was slightly taken aback, then immediately leaped up through the hole he had created on his way there. As soon as he reached the top, he saw a huge mech standing outside the mall, unleashing a barrage of attacks on something not far away! At the same time, a large number of Jackal Warrior were gathering around!
It was Li Xiuzhen and her own projection; they had discovered the escaped Zhuge Lang!
Luo Jun immediately gave chase, and just then, a golden light shone from within the encirclement of the numerous Jackal Warrior!
It's that ability again!
Luo Jun knew that this golden light was difficult to deal with, and might even have an invincible effect, but he still rushed forward and punched and kicked at the golden light.
Luo Jun knew that his opponent could also cast spells within the golden light, and that he hadn't yet used his ability to summon meteorites—the most powerful attack skill Luo Jun had ever encountered! It could even destroy an entire town!
At the same time, Li Xiuzhen's mecha, Xu Li's Water Elemental, and the large number of monsters summoned by Luo Jun's projection were also attacking the golden light.
Although Luo Jun gave most of his Noble Phantasms to Aishiliya, he still wore the headband that served as the summoning medium, which was inherited by the projection. Moreover, looking at the giant dragon circling in the sky, constantly breathing golden light, and Ailongtan focused on casting spells, drawing bolts of lightning down... I guess this kid used the Breath of Myth again!
However, the combined attack of so many people did not shake the golden light in the slightest, which basically confirms that this is a Noble Phantasm with an invincible effect, and of a very high grade!
Looks like I'll have to wait another thirty seconds.
Fortunately, Zhuge Lang within the golden light made no move; he neither summoned meteors nor used any other abilities. He simply stood there obediently, exuding an eerie aura...
Finally, the time limit was reached, the golden light dissipated, and Luo Jun rushed forward and killed Zhuge Lang. However, the latter neither fled nor resisted. After falling to the ground, the corpse twisted and turned, eventually transforming into the purple-clad woman who had died earlier...
It was a stand-in! I've been fooled!
Luo Jun couldn't help but curse, then looked around before finally reaching out to his projection. "Lend me the headband!"
The projector obediently handed over, and Luo Jun took it, put it on his head, and snorted coldly:
"I don't believe it! Dig up the entire Stone Bridge Town three feet deep and you still can't find this bastard!"
