Battle at the Imperial City (VIII): The Death of Jiang Zongquan
With the participation of Grandmaster Fu Yunyue and Tian Zhu in the battle on the city wall, the situation became completely unfavorable to the Great Qian Imperial Family.
In particular, Tian Zhu vented his anger about being imprisoned on the eunuchs of the Eunuch Bureau.
He relentlessly pursued and slaughtered the warriors of the Eunuch Bureau, his Yuan Qi transformed into a blade, and with each swing, one of them was injured or killed.
Since he was imprisoned, he has always been given special care by the Eunuch Bureau.
Therefore, even though his injuries haven't fully healed, he's forcing himself to come and kill.
Duanmu Haotian, high in the air, finally reached the peak of his aura, and then faded into calm.
His right palm pushed out calmly in front of his chest without causing any fluctuation of energy, while his left hand was hidden behind his back.
Jiang Zongquan immediately became alert. The Haotian Three Styles had just gathered a lot of energy, so how could the movement be so small?
Before he could think any further, Duanmu Haotian's right palm had already struck silently, and Duanmu Haotian himself was already leaning towards him.
Although he couldn't sense any fluctuation of energy from Duanmu Haotian's palm strike, Jiang Zongquan still cautiously raised his scepter to block it.
Unsurprisingly, Duanmu Haotian's right palm was easily blocked by the scepter in Jiang Zongquan's hand.
Duanmu Haotian then turned around smoothly, and at the same time, his left hand, which was hidden behind his back, struck out from below with lightning speed.
A burst of vital energy emanating from his left palm rapidly transformed from pale yellow to deep yellow before striking Jiang Zongquan's lower abdomen, specifically his dantian.
Jiang Zongquan smiled inwardly as he watched Duanmu Haotian's attack, thinking that Haotian Three Styles were something special.
So it was just a yin-yang attack? You thought you could outsmart me with something like that?
Jiang Zongquan's right palm, which had been poised to strike, slapped towards Duanmu Haotian's left palm.
Instantly, their palms struck each other, but the point of impact was completely silent.
Suddenly, Jiang Zongquan's expression changed.
He felt his vital energy being continuously drained away by Duanmu Haotian.
At this moment, Duanmu Haotian's right palm, which had already been opened by Jiang Zongquan's scepter, suddenly surged with power.
Duanmu Haotian suddenly accelerated his right palm strike, transferring all the vital energy from his left hand's meridians to his right hand.
Jiang Zongquan was sent flying by Duanmu Haotian's right palm.
And while he was still in mid-air, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his aura immediately weakened.
It turns out that Duanmu Haotian's palm strike absorbed the energy that Jiang Zongquan had just unleashed, combined with his own full-force attack.
They directly injured Jiang Zongquan, even damaging his meridians and internal organs.
When Jiang Zongquan finally regained his footing, the calm and composed look in his eyes as he looked at Duanmu Haotian was gone.
His left hand, which was holding the scepter, was trembling slightly, even though he hadn't had time to completely block Duanmu Haotian's attack.
However, in the heat of the moment, Jiang Zongquan still forcibly raised the scepter in his hand and used his vital energy to block it.
Only then did Jiang Zongquan realize that the purpose of Duanmu Haotian's attack was to use his own energy and then combine all of Duanmu Haotian's energy to attack him.
Seeing that his palm strike had taken effect, Duanmu Haotian immediately unleashed his movement technique and continued his rapid attack on Jiang Zongquan, not giving his enemy a chance to breathe.
Now that we've injured him, we must seize the opportunity to achieve the greatest possible victory.
The Haotian Three Styles, the one just unleashed was the first style, Yin and Yang Intertwined. To put it bluntly, it's just using the name of the Haotian Three Styles to scare others, and then forcibly taking the opportunity to absorb the opponent's vital energy to attack.
However, many people die because of this seemingly insignificant move.
Duanmu Haotian continued to press forward, his right palm striking towards Jiang Zongquan's chest.
Jiang Zongquan was much more cautious this time, raising his right palm to directly clash with Duanmu Haotian's.
Just as their palms were about to meet, Duanmu Haotian's left palm suddenly struck Jiang Zongquan's head.
As expected, Jiang Zongquan raised his left scepter and blocked Duanmu Haotian's left palm.
Before their hands even touched, Duanmu Haotian suddenly vanished from Jiang Zongquan's sight.
Only a faint human figure remained, slowly dissipating in front of Jiang Zongquan.
Then, Duanmu Haotian appeared behind Jiang Zongquan and slapped Jiang Zongquan on the back with his right palm.
Now, Jiang Zongquan could no longer withstand Duanmu Haotian's attack.
Even the movement of turning around seemed much slower.
His aura was fluctuating wildly, and he was almost losing control of his injuries.
Jiang Zongquan stared at Duanmu Haotian with eyes blazing with fury; he had never expected this.
The dignified sect leader of Haotian Sect actually keeps resorting to such despicable tactics.
This move is the second move of the Haotian Three Styles, Distant Shadow Fleeting Light.
It involves using all your strength to deceive your opponent, and then using the light and speed to attack them from behind.
In order to easily eliminate his enemies, Duanmu Haotian will not listen to any morals.
Suddenly, Duanmu Haotian's aura intensified, emanating the majestic power of Haotian. The pale yellow halo around him continued to deepen in color.
Not long after, a huge figure appeared behind him, wielding a giant axe in both hands.
This is the final move of the Haotian Three Styles: Haotian Splits the Heavens.
The origin of the Haotian Three Styles is this third style.
Haotian's image leaped into the air, wielding a giant axe and slashing fiercely at Jiang Zongquan's head.
This image of Haotian is merely a manifestation of the artistic conception of the Haotian Three Styles.
In other words, even if this image is broken, it will have no impact on Duanmu Haotian.
The reason why Duanmu Haotian did not use his Yuan Qi to Illusory Transformation human figures was to guard against Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue.
Jiang Zongquan rapidly gathered all his vital energy, trying to resist the attack of Haotian's image.
He had considered escaping, but the moment Haotian's image appeared, he felt that he had been locked onto.
With no other option, he had no choice but to fight head-on.
Jiang Liu had already sensed the difference in the fighting between Duanmu Haotian and Jiang Zongquan compared to before.
Immediately, Jiang Liu unleashed the Nebula Shrunken Earth Movement Technique, his figure silently and rapidly approaching Jiang Zongquan.
As soon as he entered the attack range of the Eight Steps of Trampling, Jiang Liu took eight steps in the air in the direction of Jiang Zongquan.
Normally, Jiang Liu's attack would be negligible to Jiang Zongquan, as he could easily neutralize it.
However, Jiang Zongquan is currently focused on dealing with Duanmu Haotian's attack.
Most importantly, he had been injured before.
Jiang Liu's attack was really going to kill him.
Jiang Zongquan paused for a moment, and then Haotian's attack arrived.
Jiang Zongquan could only watch helplessly as Haotian's giant axe came crashing down from above his head.
"Ah!" Jiang Zongquan's scream was cut short, only halfway through.
Jiang Zongquan was instantly cleaved in two by the image of Haotian, which then vanished along with it.
Jiang Liu was immediately pleased to see this.
He was just testing the waters to see how his strength would improve.
Does this attack of the Eight Steps of Trampling still have any effect on Peak Grandmaster?
Unexpectedly, the result greatly satisfied him.
As for the fact that the test subject Jiang Zongquan was killed, all he could do was apologize.
