Nearby, Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult and Bound Star were left gaping, staring blankly at Guilty Star's corpse in disbelief.
Guilty Star …
Dead?
Moreover, he had died so quickly and unexpectedly that Third Elder did not even have time to react.
The next scene caused the Third Elder's outlook on life to be turned upside down.
You're completely fine after Guilty Star's axe cleaved down?
Parallel training?
There were plenty of martial artists who trained parallel training, and there were even grandmasters whose defenses were as tough as a turtle's shell. Even so, for a rank-six pinnacle to train parallel training to rank-eight pinnacle, not even cutting through the skin with a single swing of his axe … wasn't that a little too ridiculous?
Then, there was the golden combat suit that suddenly appeared over Jiang He's body, which was a little beyond Third Elder's understanding.
Coming to his senses, his expression became somber as he growled, "Is that a divine-tier secret treasure? No, anyone below divine-tier could not use divine-tier secret treasures … eh? "
Before the Third Elder could finish his sentence, his expression suddenly changed.
He saw Jiang He take out a weirdly-shaped rocket launcher and slung it over his shoulder.
In that split second, a hair-raising sensation arose. Third Elder could even feel his skin shuddering, and he could not help thinking, 'That rocket launcher could probably blow me up!'
Still …
Putting away the rocket launcher, Jiang He could be heard muttering to himself, "The Dragon God-Type nuclear rocket launcher is too powerful, and I wouldn't be able to escape at such a close distance. It's not worth taking me down with myself …"
Therefore, as Third Elder and Bound Star looked on in shock, Jiang He took out the [Strengthened Gatling Gun].
Jiang He had planted a total of two [Strengthened Gatling Guns].
One was left at home, while the other was carried in his System Backpack.
Holding the Gatling Gun, Jiang He aimed it at Bound Star and Third Elder, asking again, "Which one of you wants to die first?"
Bound Star was at first taken aback.
Because …
Jiang He was too bizarre.
With a turn of his hand, the rocket launcher and the Gatling Gun appeared in his hand. It was more mystical than magic, but Bound Star soon became relieved.
Storage space!
Jiang He definitely had a Void Storage treasure on him, which both the Saint and the two Cardinals had. It was said that the Senior Elder had done a great deed for the Holy Faith and was rewarded by the Saint, which meant that he too had a Void Storage treasure.
Though he did not understand why a rank-six like Jiang He would have such a precious treasure, now was not the time to think about such things.
Bound Star strode forward then. With a wave of his hand, an indistinct earthen-yellow luster surged toward him, turning into a layer of stone armor that covered his entire body. "Jiang He," he sneered, "our Holy Faith has underestimated you. To think that you actually have the power to kill rank-eight or even rank-nine …"
"However, there's a huge gap between the ninth rank and the ninth rank. The Third Elder of the Holy Church is here, and you dare to be so impudent?"
During the conversation.
He glanced at the gatling gun in Jiang He's hand and smiled faintly. "That thing would work against martial artists below rank-seven, but it's useless against us."
At the side.
Meanwhile, the Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult was charging his True Qi, and his aura was slowly rising.
A scarlet flame began to gather around him, and this scarlet color rapidly spread in all directions, actually dying the night sky red. This was not caused by the true energy he cultivated, but …
The Boundary of Wills he grasped was the Boundary of Fire.
That was why the Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult was not a fire-type Awakened, and yet he could condense flames with a wave of his hand, drawing upon the might of the world.
He strode slowly towards Jiang He, igniting even the rocks and weeds beneath his feet.
He spoke flatly, "It's truly unbelievable for a rank-six pinnacle to reach this level … which is why you must die today. There will be no peace for the Holy Faith if you don't die!"
His steps were slow.
His words were slow as well, but his aura would definitely increase by several notches with each stride.
Jiang He's heart sank.
This person …
He was very good at showing off!
Especially the scarlet night sky behind him, which felt like it was about to boil up.
What Jiang He hated the most was people who showed off in front of him.
Hence, he pulled the trigger.
Ba-da-da-da-da-da!
Orange-red tongues of flame shot out of the gatling gun. How frightening was a firing rate of 6,000 bullets per minute? In other words, a hundred bullets were fired every second.
Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult remained unhurried, smiling faintly. "Such a gun doesn't threaten me."
He charged his True Qi and shielded himself with it. Sparks flew as the bullets struck the True Qi barrier around him, but they could not break through it at all. In fact, Third Elder was quite intrigued, even staying where he was and putting on a show of catching bullets with his bare hands.
Behind Third Elder, Bound Star was smiling.
Shooting a rank-nine elite with a gatling gun?
In his dreams, right?
Even he, let alone a rank-nine …
The gatling gun's bullets could not hurt him at all, and Bound Star could not be bothered to block the stray bullets that were flying towards him. While the armor he formed over his body with earth-type powers could not compare to S-grade alloy combat armor, it did not lose out to A-grade alloy diamond combat armor in terms of defense. In fact, it was a class above it …
Look at those bullets. They're just tickling him when they hit him …
Eh?
Bound Star's eyes suddenly widened.
His expression stiffened completely, and he slowly reached out to touch between his brows. It was cold, and there seemed to be a small hole there …
Then …
His consciousness promptly faded, and he fell stiffly to the ground.
Third Elder, who was putting on a show of catching bullets with his bare hands abruptly turned around, growling, "Bound Star …"
He lunged at him.
Even so, Bound Star was no longer breathing. A bullet had pierced between his brows, and he could not be more dead.
Jiang He put away the gatling gun.
His expression was very interesting, and even a little awkward …
His marksmanship was a little lacking. He was clearly aiming at Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult, so how did the stray bullets hit Bound Star? Most importantly, the bullet that struck between Bound Star's brows had coincidentally triggered the armor-piercing chance of the Strengthened Gatling Gun …
"Jiang He!"
Third Elder put down Bound Star's corpse and promptly looked up at Jiang He. His eyes were bloodshot, and a frightening aura burst out of his body. In a flash, he appeared before Jiang He in the next split second.
Pow!
A palm was pressed against Jiang He's chest.
All Jiang He felt was a tremendous force striking him, and his entire body was sent flying backward, only landing heavily after flying dozens of meters.
He rolled to his feet.
Jiang He looked at his chest.
It seemed that …
He was fine. After being weakened by the SS-grade Dark Golden Combat Armor, the palm strike was no different from tickling Jiang He's body after he had mastered Indestructible Diamond.
Whoosh!
Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult attacked again. He was extraordinarily fast and moved like a phantom, not losing out to Jiang He's Blind Princess's Eight Practices at all. Another three palm strikes landed on Jiang He's chest.
Still, Jiang He was prepared this time and had already charged Indestructible Diamond. Even so, the three palm strikes merely pushed him several steps back, and the ground beneath his feet cracked.
He then extended his senses over his body.
Compared to the palm strike before …
It was a little painful now.
"The Dark Golden Combat Armor's defense is really powerful, but I wonder what its limits are …" Jiang He's eyes lit up as the thought occurred to him, and he turned towards Third Elder …
Limits …
Wouldn't he be able to find out if he kept hitting him for a while?
Hence, patting his chest, Jiang He laughed out loud. "Again, old thing!"
Whoosh!
In the end, Third Elder of the Sky Demon Cult turned and ran without another word!
"Trying to run when you can't beat me?"
"It's not that easy!"
Laughing fearsomely, Jiang He strode off in hot pursuit!
