Huo Ying persisted and firmly asked Jin Qi for the Soul Grain Pills. This time, Jin Qi didn't say anything more. Huo Ying's feelings were something that he, who'd just experienced the whirlpool of Megrez Peak, was completely able to understand. To a head disciple of the seventh peak, life and death were important, but responsibility was higher than that.
Jin Qi raised his hand and placed a dark purple pill into Huo Ying's palm.
Huo Ying was slightly stunned. She could not help but turn to look at Jin Qi.
Without any movement, the Soul Grain Pill was placed into Huo Ying's palm. What did this mean? This meant that Jin Qi had already taken the Soul Grain Pill. Of course, this was not prepared for Huo Ying, but for himself. Jin Qi did not have the confidence to face Chen Chu, who was also the Head Disciple of the Seven Peaks. Thus, he had long since prepared to use the Soul Grain Pill, even if it would bring about a great burden and risk.
For the sake of the academy, he had sacrificed himself.
Jin Qi would do such a thing, and so would Huo Ying.
Therefore, there was no need for too many words. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Death, for the two of them, was not scary at all.
With a raise of his hand, the Soul Grain Pill was already thrown into Huo Ying's mouth. In an instant, it turned into a warm current that penetrated deep into his internal organs. Following that, it started to burn like fire. The power of the soul was like boiling water placed on top of a fire. It started to boil.
A look of pain flashed across Huo Ying's face. He was not an expert in the digestive system, but he could handle the Soul Grain Pill. However, it was just as Jin Qi had said. It was truly difficult for his body to endure the increase brought about by the Soul Grain Pill.
But right at this moment, Jin Qi who was at his side suddenly attacked. His fingers were like a gust of wind as they successively struck the Divine Way, Spirit Platform, Central Center, Xuan Center, Mingmen, and Soul Gate acupoints on Huo Ying's back. With each finger, an extremely refreshing Spirit Power was poured into Huo Ying. Each finger caused Huo Ying's surging Spirit Power to calm down a little.
"Thank you." Huo Ying nodded slightly. Her control over the Soul Power had become much smoother thanks to Jin Qi's help.
Unexpectedly, Chen Chu, who he had been staring at, actually smiled at this moment.
"Goodbye!" he suddenly said. His figure quickly retreated. After confronting each other for a while, was he actually trying to escape?
"You want to leave?" With the help of the Soul Grain Pills and Jin Qi, Huo Ying had already recovered. He took a step forward, and the place where his foot landed flashed with light. His soul force spread out like a spider web. This was the strength that a former head disciple of Alioth Peak should have. There was no need for a long and tedious arrangement. With just a step, the special ability "Entanglement Net" had already been activated. Of the soul energies that spread in all directions, a few of the brightest ones chased after Chen Chu. It was much faster than Chen Chu's retreat.
However, Chen Chu was still smiling. He flicked his finger left and right, and the lush green light that chased after him suddenly changed direction, splitting to the left and right, bypassing Chen Chu.
Huo Ying's expression changed slightly, and he quickly clasped his palms together in front of his chest. Light erupted from the soul power, and the few wisps of soul power that had circled around Chen Chu's body suddenly rose from the ground and converged toward Chen Chu.
Net Life Net!
Huo Ying raised her hand and changed the rules of customization. The Ground Entanglement Net didn't change at all, but it actually jumped into a new ability. Even on Alioth Peak, it was difficult for there to be a few people who could do this, and Jin Qi at the side felt extreme admiration in his heart when he saw this. He was accumulating power, ready to act at any moment.
However, this marvelous change did not stump Chen Chu at all. With a light flick of his wrist and a light pull, he easily undid the Net Life Net and passed through it.
Huo Ying's expression became even more serious, but Chen Chu was still as relaxed as before. There seemed to be a huge gap between the two. Chen Chu flicked his finger, and the Entanglement spun twice on his fingertip. The green bamboo shadow swayed.
Jin Qi was slightly stunned.
Gap?
Gap!
This was it!
Chen Chu had the famous high grade level five Divine Weapon, Entanglement.
But Huo Ying? His hands were empty.
Of course, he also had a Divine Weapon, and it was not inferior to the Entanglement. But when he left Alioth Peak and decided to go to the five academies to silently wait for death, he had already returned his inherited Divine Weapon to the Hall of Seven Sins. The current him. Without a Divine Weapon, this was the gap between him and Chen Chu. Chen Chu was clearly aware of this, so he had fully utilized the Divine Weapon in his hands both times.
Chen Chu, who was proficient in his special ability, Clear Insight, was best at finding loopholes and grasping the difference. There was a huge gap between having a Divine Weapon and not, and it would only be magnified when facing an opponent like Chen Chu.
Chen Chu had calculated this point. So he did not panic. If he wanted to escape, he would have had a better chance if he did it earlier, but he had waited until now. He wanted to wait until Huo Ying ate the Soul Grain Pill. He wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Huo Ying. He did not need to do anything. As long as Huo Ying ate the Soul Grain Pill, the outcome would be decided.
What a sinister scheme …
Jin Qi realized that he had been friends with Chen Chu for many years, but it was only today that he truly witnessed this person's methods.
His special ability allowed him to see through many people and many things, but no one had truly seen through him.
Even now, even though they knew they were enemies, they still fell into Chen Chu's trap.
Huo Ying clearly realized this problem as well. He did not say a word, but his spirit power surged even more wildly, filling the entire barrier in an instant.
"Eldest Senior Brother is really tenacious," Chen Chu said as he retreated. He was dealing with Huo Ying, but he never forgot to pay attention to Jin Qi's movements. As soon as Jin Qi made his move, he had already made adjustments.
"I'm not going to play with you anymore!" He shouted fiercely, and the Drawing Rod in his hand suddenly stabbed into the ground. Immediately, rays of green light rose in the barrier, and Huo Ying's crazy surging spirit power, which was about to condense into a customized spirit power in the barrier, immediately became chaotic.
Huo Ying gritted his teeth and took another step forward. This time, he stomped his foot heavily, and the chaotic spirit power stabilized once again, but blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
Moving Labyrinth!
This was the superpower that Huo Ying was most proficient in. When he was learning from Li Yaotian, he had gained inspiration from his teacher's ultimate move, Vanishing End, and developed this unique skill. Within the barrier, the spirit power stood in great numbers, as though it was rapidly constructing a building. Huo Ying was already giving it his all. The explosive power brought about by the Soul Grain Pill had been exhausted in just a few short exchanges. Weakness quickly attacked him as the moving labyrinth formed.
Chen Chu, however, smiled again. His smile was cruel, but also satisfied. His left hand suddenly swiped the Drawing Rod that was stabbed into the ground, and an object began to spin on it.
Feather Satellite!
The object spinning on top of the Drawing Rod was the Divine Armament Feather Satellite that supported the Seven Elements Relief Great Customization with the Big Dipper Sword. It was not a transcendent-grade Divine Armament, so it could not use any superpower. Its use was just like that of an ordinary Divine Armament. It could strengthen the spirit power. And what was special about it was that the strengthened spirit power could be freely switched between the six spirits. This could be an adjustment, or it could also be a destruction.
Jin Qi did not control the Seven Elements Relief Great Customization with the use of the Feather Satellite. But he knew. This was not a good opportunity for him to attack, but he had no other choice. He could only charge forward without any regard for anything else.
"Don't move!" Unexpectedly, Huo Ying shouted at this moment.
Jin Qi was stunned, and he stopped in his tracks.
Don't move?
What other tricks did Huo Ying have?
Without a Divine Armament, he wanted to face Chen Chu alone. And with the Drawing Rod and the Feather Satellite, two Divine Armaments?
How was that possible?
Jin Qi did not understand, but Huo Ying's tone was so firm that he could not ignore it.
At the top of the Drawing Rod, the spinning Feather Satellite had already begun to perform its function. The spirit power in the surroundings was continuously absorbed by him, going in and out of the six round holes. Each hole represented the attribute of a kind of spirit power. When a hole lit up, the Feather Satellite at this moment would be the strengthened attribute of the spirit power.
The Seven Star Sword, as a transcendent-grade Divine Armament, could completely deal with such irregular changes and strengthening. But for xiuzhe with flesh and blood bodies. This meant that it was much more difficult to control the spirit power. Huo Ying, who had already started to weaken, was not able to hold on for even an instant. He spat out a mouthful of blood. Several corners of this moving maze that he had put all his power into had collapsed.
"Farewell." Chen Chu, whose expression was still relaxed, put away the two Divine Armaments and prepared to leave. For him, one weakness was enough, not to mention that several parts of the moving maze had collapsed.
Chen Chu turned to leave. At this time, he suddenly felt a vast spirit power cover him. He suddenly raised his head, and saw the Seven Star Sword was hanging above his head.
Chen Chu was shocked. He turned his head to look around, and found that the layout of this moving maze was not to trap him. It was to use the power of the Seven Star Sword to kill him. Huo Ying's moving maze. It had actually completed such a spatial crossing with the Seven Star Sword.
One of the seven rust spots on the sword lit up. This was not the full power of the Seven Star Sword, but it was enough to kill one person.
Like the Milky Way falling, the old and ugly Seven Star Sword chopped down. There were no signs of emotion. The spirit power was also extremely fast. Chen Chu's Insight Insight was of no value in front of a transcendent-grade Divine Armament. When he sensed that the Seven Star Sword was hanging above his head, the sword had already moved. By the time he realized what had happened, the sword had already fallen.
At this moment, there was no more thinking, no more analysis, everything was based on instinct.
Chen Chu raised his hand, and raised the Divine Armament Pulling Guide. A blue light met the Seven Star Sword light.
The two lights collided. There was no visible resistance at all, but the blue light was broken.
The blue bamboo was broken into two pieces, and then there was a burst of blood. Chen Chu's right arm had been cut off from the shoulder.
Although Pulling Guide was completely unable to block the Seven Star Sword, in the moment of collision, it still played a little role. The sword that was originally aimed at Chen Chu was slightly deflected.
Chen Chu's movements did not slow down in the slightest because of his severed arm. When Pulling Guide parried the Seven Star Sword, he continued to flee. His severed right arm had not yet fallen to the ground, but his figure had already completely escaped from the barrier.
"What a pity!" Jin Qi called out with incomparable regret. The change happened in an instant, and he didn't even have time to act. After Huo Ying ate the Soul Grain Pill, his confrontation with Chen Chu had only lasted a few seconds. But in the end, Chen Chu's Divine Armament was destroyed, his arm was broken, and Huo Ying had exhausted all his strength.
"I'll go after him." Jin Qi hurriedly rushed out of the barrier.
"Wait," Huo Ying hurriedly called out.
"What?" Jin Qi looked back in surprise. Then he found that Chen Chu had already run away, but Huo Ying was still trying to maintain the moving maze.
"You can't get out like this," Huo Ying said.
"Why?" Jin Qi was puzzled.
"The people outside are all from Alioth Peak," Huo Ying said.
The people outside are all from Alioth Peak? These words were a little strange, but after thinking for a moment, Jin Qi somewhat understood.
"Enter the maze, I'll send you out," Huo Ying said.
