Beaten Ji Lanjun

"Y-you turned around again!"

Ji Lanjun's face was filled with terror and disbelief as she watched Lu Feng turn toward the final portion of text. Her unease surged to its utmost limit.

She did not dare gamble again, much less accept the consequences of losing.

With that thought, Ji Lanjun gritted her teeth. The spiritual energy throughout her body began flowing in reverse, and regardless of the backlash from the array, she forcibly cut off the portion of the array formation surrounding Lu Feng.

Lu Feng, immersed in cultivation, was abruptly struck by this change. It was as if a furious colossal beast had suddenly burst into his tranquil sea of soul, letting out an ear-splitting roar. Like the awakening of insects splitting the black night, it tyrannically tore apart that silence.

The characters formed from Mist Shroud all around him exploded like collapsing city walls, dissolving into dust amid the sky-filled mist.

Lu Feng felt as though his head had been struck by a heavy hammer. His thoughts came to an abrupt halt, leaving only a piercing buzz in his mind.

A powerful force had violently jolted him awake from that state of stillness.

Unable to endure the sudden tearing sensation, Lu Feng spat out a mouthful of blood, his head feeling as though it were about to explode.

Lu Feng's expression twisted savagely as he crouched on the ground in agony, both hands pressed tightly against his head, trying to calm the violent upheaval in his sea of soul.

Elsewhere.

Ji Lanjun was in no better condition. A trace of blood seeped from between her clenched pearly teeth. Forcibly interrupting the array's operation was a hundred times more agonizing than she had imagined.

The surging spiritual energy within her nearly made her lose control of the Thousand Illusions
