Collision (2)
This was the attack plan that Li Wei came up with while running.
The old man on the centipede was definitely much stronger than me, and judging from the way those Evil Eye died, he probably had the ability to control blood.
An ordinary person encountering such a powerful and bizarre attack would likely die instantly.
Killing him might take some effort, but dealing with Meng Ting would be a piece of cake. Although the woman had nothing to do with Li Wei, he couldn't just watch her die after spending a day with her.
Moreover, judging from what the woman said, one of the other four people on the centipede was her brother.
In Li Wei's view, the four people were clearly four dead people, and somewhat resembled monsters created using the Stitching Technique he had previously mastered.
In this way, the old man's strength became unfathomable, because Li Wei sensed powerful fluctuations from those four corpses. Someone who could create such powerful corpses was definitely not an ordinary person.
Therefore, out of fear of the old man's unfathomable strength, Li Wei chose a 'counterattack' attack method.
That is, a fatal blow.
To achieve this goal, the attack method must be unexpected, and the attack power must be sufficient.
Utilizing the lightning element in the air is the best way to increase attack power. Just now, Li Wei used 'Finger Thunder' to activate the lightning element in the air, and then absorbed it all at once to unleash his strongest attack.
At that very moment, just as the giant centipede flew down the cliff, the timing and the method of attack were perfect. Furthermore, the lightning's attack speed was arguably the fastest besides 'light'.
Before the giant centipede could react, Li Wei swung his Lightning Sword and pierced it through. The violent lightning instantly destroyed the centipede's body, along with the three corpses on it, turning them into a shower of blood and flesh.
The old man and the other corpse jumped away from the centipede before the lightning strike.
Seeing that he had failed to kill the old man, Li Wei sighed inwardly.
Watching his mount and the three newly crafted corpses being blasted to pieces by lightning, the old man's face turned pale with rage. His wrinkled face twitched a few times before he snarled, "Fine, very well! Truly, the younger generation is to be feared! If I don't skin you alive today, I, Qin, will take your surname!"
Having said that, a red glint flashed in his eyes, and without anyone knowing what he did, the centipede, the fragments of the corpse, and the blood suddenly stopped falling and quickly gathered together, forming a huge blood skull that opened its blood-red maw to bite Li Wei.
This unbelievable method was terrifying in its scale. Even from a distance, Li Wei could smell the strong, pungent stench of blood. He dared not underestimate it and quickly hid to the side. Then, using his Flight, he continued to fly upwards.
Unexpectedly, the blood skeleton seemed to have eyes, and it turned around and pounced on Li Wei. One of the Evil Eye that happened to be passing by accidentally bumped into the blood skeleton, causing its blood to burst out and its flesh to turn into fragments. These fragments were then automatically absorbed by the blood skeleton and became part of it.
"I absolutely cannot let it touch me!" Li Wei broke out in a cold sweat. This Blood Skull was too powerful. Just a touch was enough to kill the Evil Eye. Moreover, with the addition of fresh blood and flesh, the Blood Skull's power had increased even more.
Li Wei steeled his resolve, pointed his finger, and a bolt of Finger Thunder shot out, striking the blood skull with a crack. However, the lightning attack, which was usually invincible, failed at this moment.
Only ripples appeared on the blood skull before the lightning disappeared without a trace, but the blood skull's momentum remained undiminished.
"Heh heh, ignorant brat! This is an evil creature without life, without even a physical form. Your skill in manipulating electricity is not bad, but it is far inferior to my 'Blood Control Method'!" As he spoke, the old man's face turned ferocious, and he quickly made a hand seal.
Soon, the only corpse beside him seemed to be a hunting dog that had received a command. It charged forward and attacked Li Wei with a momentum no less than that of a B1-level expert.
With corpses in front and blood skeletons behind, Li Wei was caught in a pincer movement, instantly finding himself at a significant disadvantage.
At the critical moment, Li Wei roared, made a sword incantation with his left hand to unleash his sword control technique, while his right hand continued to use 'Finger Thunder' to attack the two things surrounding him.
First of all, the sword technique is used to deal with the Blood Skull. Although Li Wei's current sword control level is not particularly good, it is still a rare skill.
As for the corpses, the only way to determine who is superior is with the fastest 'Finger Thunder'.
The Finger Thunder strike landed first, crackling and exploding, leaving a bloody, mangled wound on the corpse's chest. However, the corpse seemed completely oblivious to the pain and continued charging towards Li Wei, though its speed was slightly reduced due to the paralyzing effect of the electric current.
"There's a chance!"
Seeing this, Li Wei swiftly struck out with another palm, a net of lightning crackling as it struck the corpse. With each strike, the corpse's movements became even more sluggish.
The danger posed by the corpse man has been temporarily averted, but the blood skeleton shows no fear of Li Wei's Power Sword.
Although the Power Sword, under the True Essence Sword Control Technique, moved like a nimble swallow, attacking the Blood Skull, no matter how it was slashed, the Blood Skull would always return to its original state. In fact, over time, many small dents appeared on the Power Sword due to corrosion, and its attack power decreased significantly.
"What's wrong, kid? You've run out of tricks, haven't you? Hehe, I haven't even used my ultimate move yet!" The old man in the distance was in high spirits after seeing the corpse man and the blood skeleton suppress the kid. He then took out a blood-red talisman, chanted a few incantations, and the talisman burst into flames.
Then, the old man's skin veins bulged, his hands formed a hand seal, and he aimed at Li Wei from a distance, shouting, "Blood Control Method, activate!"
Instantly, an invisible wave emanated rapidly, spreading in all directions towards the old man.
Some small creatures hidden in the crevices of the rocks froze in shock at the tremor, and then thick blood seeped from their mouths, noses, and skin, and they died instantly.
Soon, the wave reached Li Wei, who was unable to dodge it and was instantly enveloped by it.
Buzz!
Li Wei felt his mind go blank, as if his blood had frozen for a moment. He was horrified. It was obvious that the old man surnamed Qin was behind it. To be caught off guard at this critical juncture was a matter of life and death.
At this point, Li Wei dared not hold back any longer and immediately unleashed 'Sky Fox Awakening'.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a massive surge of demonic energy erupted once more. Both the corpse man and the blood skeleton instinctively retreated upon sensing the demonic energy. Even the old man surnamed Qin in the distance had a sudden change in expression.
"This... this is demonic energy?" The old man, whose expression changed drastically, hurriedly stepped back.
Although he was strong, he was still human after all. That demonic energy was comparable to an invisible blade, and he absolutely could not be touched. However, the kid in front of him seemed to have just obtained this demonic energy and could not control it freely yet. Otherwise, if a more powerful old demon had come, the fun would have been much greater.
The old man, temporarily confused, narrowed his eyes and beckoned back the Blood Skull and the Corpse Man.
After Dao Eye might be a demon, he had already decided to retreat. Although the secret technique he possessed was powerful, it had a fatal flaw.
That is, the physical body is extremely fragile. No matter what kind of demon it is, the physical body is extremely strong. If the opponent is forced in front of him, the old man surnamed Qin does not think he can deal with it easily.
Of course, even if the opponent was a demon, the old man surnamed Qin was confident that he would not be afraid of him. However, if his combat strength decreased because of this battle, it would be a loss.
Moreover, his 'Blood Control Technique' was only at the minor completion stage, far inferior to that of his master back in his 'hometown'. This mission was to seize the main city of a level 4 Illusion Realm. If the mission failed due to other circumstances, the old man surnamed Qin dared not imagine what kind of punishment he would receive.
After careful consideration, the elderly man surnamed Qin decided to temporarily stop.
"Kid, you're lucky today. I have important business to attend to. We'll meet again another day!" With that, he turned to leave.
Li Wei, however, spoke coldly from within the thick fog, "You think you can come and go as you please? Do you think this is your backyard? Today, I'm not letting you leave!"
With a sharp inhale, Li Wei drew all the surrounding demonic energy into his mouth and nose, storing it within his body and temporarily enveloping it with his true essence. He also realized that this demonic energy was no ordinary thing, and it would be a pity to let it dissipate; it would be better to have the opportunity to study it further.
The Sky Fox Awakening, but could only hold out for a moment. Li Wei dared not delay, and instead unleashed all his power, hurling out a bolt of lightning.
Snap!
The enormous explosion seemed to tear the sky apart, and after a blinding flash, the lightning struck the corpse that was quickly blocking the old man surnamed Qin.
Although it felt no pain, it was still flesh and blood, and under the immense lightning, it couldn't withstand it for long before being blasted into countless pieces of flesh. However, because of this, the old man surnamed Qin escaped a calamity.
"You damned brat, how dare you destroy my Iron Corpse! I'll never forgive you!" the old man surnamed Qin roared, taking out a skull from his robes.
This time, however, it was a real human skull. Judging from its size, it should be the skull of a child. Moreover, when the old man Qin presented it, he was very careful, as if the skull were a great treasure.
Ever since this old man appeared, strange things have been happening one after another. This is the first time Li Wei has encountered such a troublesome opponent. If it weren't for his Sky Fox Physique, an ordinary person would have died countless times by now.
Therefore, Li Wei would never dare to be presumptuous, much less let the old man leave.
Today, even if it means mutual destruction, we must kill this old man, otherwise there will be endless trouble in the future.
With this belief, Li Wei once again activated his inner core, squeezing out the last bit of lightning-type true energy. He raised his right hand, and streaks of lightning gathered in his palm.
