The brownish-gray mountain wall quickly melted into lava and flowed down. Jing Hong spat out large mouthfuls of blood. His arms were shattered, his black membrane shattered, his face and body covered in blood, and one of his legs was broken in half. However, he did not give up. He pressed his back against the mountain wall and tried to stand up.
Lu Sheng slowly walked in front of him.
"Is this what you've come to? Your principles? "
Jing Hong coughed a few times and spat out another mouthful of blood. Then, he suddenly laughed softly.
"Hehe … hehehehe …"
He used all his methods and all his strength, but he was still no match for the person in front of him. At this point, he was still alive. What else could it be other than the other's goal?
"In this dark world, someone … has to … protect …" Jing Hong said in a low voice. Although his voice was intermittent due to his injuries, his tone revealed his unrepentant determination.
"Everyone has their own justice and light …" he said with difficulty.
Lu Sheng looked at this Weapon Master who was about to be crippled. A genius Weapon Master who was infinitely close to a Divine Lord was not much stronger than a defenseless infant in front of him. However, even though he was so injured, he still did not give up.
"Justice? Light? People who live in this world have the least right to ask for such things, "Lu Sheng said calmly." You have to struggle just to survive. How can you ask for justice? "
"You don't understand … It's different … If the world wasn't like this, perhaps all these tragedies wouldn't have happened … cough, cough," Jing Hong mumbled.
"Forget it. Looks like you've given up." Lu Sheng raised his hand. His palm glowed with a dazzling golden light. The golden light quickly condensed into a meter-long saber.
"Any last words?" he asked casually.
Jing Hong smiled and shook his head.
"Then … goodbye." Lu Sheng raised his saber. The golden saber in his hand shone with a blinding light. Then, he slashed down.
"Pcchht!"
"Clang!"
Almost at the same time, a crisp sound exploded in front of the long saber. A light blue spear blocked the saber's body. The spear shone with a dazzling dark blue triangular symbol. Inside the symbol was a slowly rotating pegasus.
Unbeknownst to him, the man with the gun was already standing beside Lu Sheng.
This was a well-proportioned, tall, and handsome man. He had a head of elegant blue short hair, and his eyes were cold, proud, and tenacious like Jing Hong. He was dressed in a tight-fitting leather armor, and there was a bright silver breastplate on his chest.
"Brother … you still came …" Jing Hong coughed helplessly.
"Xu Qi?" Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed as he read out the name that was most likely a pseudonym. The main character had finally arrived … So, it was time for the arranged play to begin. The "Evil" symbol on his palm moved slightly, and it began to release a synchronized signal towards the two Evil Art Masters in the distance.
That was a notification to make a move.
"The sect master of the Thousand Sun Sect, Lu Sheng? How do you want to die? "Xu Qi's voice was cold, and his sharp eyes instantly locked onto Lu Sheng. Although he hadn't been here for long, he had already seen through many of Lu Sheng's intentions.
Of course, part of it was because Lu Sheng didn't hide it, but it also showed how accurate his judgment and probing abilities were.
"I don't know how I want to die." Lu Sheng smiled. "But I do know that you're about to … die!!"
Suddenly, he leapt forward, his legs quickly changing shape, and he returned to his original form. His speed and explosive power were all greatly increased, and he threw a punch.
"Spirit Slaughter!!"
After returning to his original form, Lu Sheng's speed and strength were all increased. Although the strength of each level of a Divine Lord couldn't be measured by the strength of the body, a powerful body was still enough to pose a significant threat to a Divine Lord.
The pure power and speed smashed into Xu Qi's body with a terrifying explosive force.
"Boom!!"
A layer of faint blue light exploded between the two. The spear in Xu Qi's hand appeared in front of him at an unimaginable speed, almost as if it had jumped, and hit Lu Sheng's fist with the spear. The blue light exploded, and Lu Sheng was pushed back.
"Reflect!" Xu Qi's spear trembled, and an almost equally violent force surged back through Lu Sheng's arm.
This was his own power, the terrifying power that he had produced by simply using his original form.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! "
After taking three steps back, white smoke slowly rose from Lu Sheng's right arm. That was the aftereffect of taking Xu Qi's attack head-on.
"Is this the power of the Tian 'er Blade?" He was surprised. It was rare to meet someone who could push him back head-on. After all, even Divine Lords rarely met someone with a body as strong as his.
But this Xu Qi actually dared to take his strength head-on. It was truly unbelievable.
"It's not the Tian 'er Blade … Where did you hear about it? It's the bloodline power of my Life Divine Weapon. "Xu Qi's expression turned cold, and he roughly understood what Lu Sheng was trying to do.
"You're not using the Tian 'er Blade as your main Divine Weapon?" Lu Sheng moved his fist. "Interesting." Even though his fist was still smoking and his forearm was sore and itchy, this bit of consumption was nothing to his powerful body.
"You're from the Jing Family, right? Jing Hong's older brother? That power is very similar to his … "he asked casually.
"Sky-Splitting God-Spear!!"
To his surprise, Xu Qi leaped up and pounced at him. The spear in his hand drew a semicircle in the air like lightning and came crashing down on his head.
"Crack!!"
The spear instantly turned into a bolt of deep blue lightning, and the spear merged with a brilliant silver-blue light. Behind him, blue lightning formed the shape of a pegasus. It stomped down on Lu Sheng.
"Neigh!!"
The pegasus flapped its wings, raised its front hooves, and stomped down.
"Rumble!!"
With a loud boom, the blue lightning exploded. Lu Sheng raised his arms high. His body was no longer in human shape. Four pairs of horns grew out of his head, and pitch-black scales covered his body. A thick tail grew out of his back. His mouth had changed into that of a monster's, and three rows of sharp teeth could be seen densely packed together.
The Lightning Pegasus landed with a loud rumble, but he grabbed both of its hooves and held it firmly in midair, unable to descend.
"Not bad power … Too bad … it's only so-so. Divine Might!! "
"Boom!!!"
Lu Sheng swung the pegasus and slammed it into the side of the mountain wall.
The pegasus exploded, and Xu Qi flew out from the explosion. His spear turned into a storm, aiming for Lu Sheng's eyes, ears, and other vital points.
Lu Sheng's arms quickly blocked, and he accurately blocked every thrust of the spear.
"Is that all you've got?" He cracked open his mouth and let out a mocking laugh.
That spear was indeed powerful, at least at the peak of the Gold Leaf stage. But this was not Lu Sheng's limit. Attacks below the peak of the Jade Star stage had no effect on his body's scales and Yang Essence.
At least before he ran out of Yang Essence, there was no difference if someone below the Jade Star stage hit him or missed.
In reality, if it wasn't for his spirit holding him back, Lu Sheng's body would have already surpassed the Jade Star stage. However, he had never fought a Divine Intellect Divine Lord before, so he didn't know how strong he was.
Xu Qi was a standard peak Jade Star Divine Lord. This was mentioned in the intelligence, and Lu Sheng planned to use it as a standard to measure his strength. He had long since broken away from the traditional Divine Lord system, so his real strength could only be compared with other things.
"Earth-splitting Spike!" After a while, Xu Qi retreated and smashed his spear into the ground.
Lu Sheng had an idea, and his right foot stomped on the ground.
His golden Yang Essence seeped into the ground, and collided with the blue lightning spear that was about to break out of the ground.
"Poof poof poof!!"
Several explosions sounded, and the ground shook.
Not far away, Jing Hong was affected, and couldn't help but groan in pain. Xu Qi's expression changed slightly. He knew he couldn't win this time. He didn't hold back at all when fighting against Lu Sheng. He used his full strength, but he still couldn't take him down. If it was another time and place, he might be able to fight freely.
But not now. Jing Hong couldn't hold on.
When Xu Qi thought of Lu Sheng who had hurt his brother like this, he was filled with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.
He flew over and picked up his brother. The blue spear beside him suddenly exploded into a huge ball of lightning.
The huge ball of lightning condensed into a ball that grew larger and more blinding. The faint neighing of a pegasus could be heard inside.
"Great Fission Divine Spear!!!" He roared, raised the spear with one hand, and swung it down.
The tip of the spear carried the huge ball of lightning and smashed it into the ground.
"Boom!!!"
The ball of lightning hit the ground, and countless blue lightning snakes exploded. With the two of them as the center, the ground and trees in a radius of several hundred meters sunk, turning into scorched earth.
Amidst the blinding lightning, a blue pegasus soared into the sky and roared angrily. Black thunderclouds quickly gathered in the sky, and a lightning bolt as thick as a water bucket suddenly struck down, once again burning the ground within several hundred meters.
Amidst the lightning, a figure struggled to stand up. Countless lightning bolts danced around his body.
Watching Xu Qi fly away, Lu Sheng let out a sinister laugh. His right arm quickly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, it had grown to a diameter of more than three meters. A ball of golden light spun and brightened in his palm, aimed at Xu Qi and Jing Hong.
"Infinite … Divine Might!!!"
"Whoosh!!"
A golden line shot out from Lu Sheng's hand, instantly crossing several hundred meters and spinning toward Xu Qi's back.
"Four Directions Soaring Spirit." Xu Qi's expression didn't change. Feeling the terrifying peak Jade Star power behind him, a green scimitar suddenly appeared behind him, spinning rapidly and releasing a green light.
The green light instantly turned into the shape of an ear, enveloping the two of them, and shot into the distance at an incomprehensible speed.
"Do it!!" Lu Sheng wasn't surprised, but happy instead, and suddenly yelled.
Puff!
A grey-white chain pierced through space and appeared behind Xu Qi, binding the green scimitar.
Xu Qi's expression changed drastically. He had no idea where this grey-white chain had come from.
"Die!!" Lu Sheng chased after him, his right palm emitting a blinding light as bright as the sun. Divine Might Palm struck out with all his might. The Yang essence in his body erupted like a mountain torrent, gushing out from his palm.
But at this moment, Xu Qi's expression changed. With the grey-white chain still wrapped around him, intense lightning exploded from his body. He and Jing Hong were completely enveloped in the blue lightning a second before Lu Sheng arrived. However, the lightning exploded, revealing their figures once again.
Boom!!!
Lu Sheng's palm, covered in golden light, pierced through their bodies. It was so light that he didn't feel anything at all.
Only then did Xu Qi and Jing Hong's figures slowly dissipate. They were only two solid shadows!
With a thud, Lu Sheng landed heavily on one knee. The ground within ten meters of him sank at the same time, emitting a tearing sound from the heavy pressure.
"Ah!!!"
He suddenly stood up and punched a giant tree to the side.
Boom!!
The golden light exploded, and all the trees and soil within a hundred meters were swept up by the golden light, exploding.
A huge fire ignited, and black smoke filled the air. Branches and leaves exploded into the air, only falling down after a while.
