Chapter 351 Ultimate Showdown, A Multi-Pronged Attack
Upon hearing that the Heavenly King had been injured, they all rushed towards Liu Lingzhen with bloodshot eyes, as if they had gone mad.
"Good timing!"
A fierce glint flashed in Liu Lingzhen's eyes. She clapped her hands together, and her vital energy condensed into a huge shockwave that swept outwards.
The dozens of warriors at the forefront were instantly blasted away and crashed into the wall, their fate unknown.
"Kill!" The warriors, however, showed no fear and continued their charge, stepping over the corpses of their comrades.
Liu Lingzhen stood in the hall, her figure as swift as lightning.
He didn't touch any weapons, relying solely on his bare hands to unleash the full power of the Illusionary Spirit Technique.
Wherever the blue and white group went, weapons broke, bones shattered, and screams of agony echoed.
The battle raged fiercely within the palace walls.
Several palaces within the palace city were shattered and collapsed by the earthquake.
The blood of many warriors of the Gu Xuan Dynasty stained every inch of the land.
Liu Lingzhen also suffered several wounds, but she fought with increasing ferocity, her eyes shining brighter than the blazing sun outside the palace.
"Liu Lingzhen! What exactly do you want to do!" Wu Baihan hid behind the crowd, both shocked and furious.
Liu Lingzhen kicked Chao Keda away, turned to look at him, and a bloody smile curled at the corner of her mouth.
"What are we here for? We're here to collect some interest, of course!"
He charged at Wu Baihan again, and this time no one could stop him.
The blue-white energy condensed into a fist and slammed hard into Wu Baihan's chest.
"No—!" Wu Baihan roared in despair.
Just as the fist was about to strike, an aged voice rang out.
"stop!"
A gray shadow flashed past like lightning, blocking Wu Baihan's path and clashing head-on with Liu Lingzhen's fist.
With a loud bang, the two men were each thrown back several feet.
Liu Lingzhen looked at the white-haired old man in front of her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
“Gao Kezi…”
Gao Kezi looked at Liu Lingzhen and offered her advice in a calm tone.
"Liu Lingzhen, that's enough. If you keep fighting, you might lose your life here today."
Liu Lingzhen looked at the endless stream of warriors pouring in from all around her.
He glanced at the old man again, knowing that it would be difficult to kill Wu Baihan today.
But he wouldn't leave so easily!
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed loudly, "Gao Kezi, I heard twenty years ago that you had already entered the Lesser Vehicle realm."
Now, twenty years have passed. I wonder if your strength is enough for me to fight you!
Gao Kezi looked at the burgeoning fighting spirit in Liu Lingzhen's eyes.
A flush rose on his aged face.
Because he had been silent for so long, so long that he had almost forgotten what it felt like to go all out.
The force contained in Liu Lingzhen's palm strike just now was so pure that he was certain she was at the Lesser Vehicle realm.
Liu Lingzhen's achievements at such a young age are something even he himself would be ashamed of back then.
"Since King Ling is willing to have a contest, how could I possibly spoil your fun?"
Gao Kezi slowly raised his hand, and a force of gas emerged from his palm.
"Old Gao! No!"
Upon seeing this from behind, Wu Baihan's voice suddenly rose, and he hurriedly tried to stop him with a panicked expression.
He clutched his still aching chest and stared intently at Gao Kezi.
"This man is my enemy, Gu Xuanchao. Why bother talking to him about so-called chivalrous code?"
"Since we are so few, let's all rush forward and hack him to death!"
How could he not know Gao Kezi's importance!
However, this octogenarian is the only Lesser Vehicle Realm expert in his Gu Xuan Dynasty, and he still needs to serve as a cornerstone to deter the surrounding countries.
Ordinary experts at the Great Yuan Realm might be able to win by sheer numbers, but the deterrent power of those at the Lesser Vehicle Realm cannot be compensated for by sheer numbers.
As long as Gao Kezi is in power, other countries will not dare to easily attack the Gu Xuan Dynasty.
If Gao Kezi loses in his fight with Liu Lingzhen.
Then Gu Xuanchao's status will plummet.
Upon hearing this, Liu Lingzhen scoffed, her gaze sweeping over Wu Baihan like a knife.
"How dare a cowardly rat hiding its head and tail talk about the word 'enemy'?"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already transformed into a blue-white lightning bolt.
Ignoring the swords and spears around them, they charged straight at Wu Baihan.
"Protect the Emperor!"
Barichob roared and lunged forward, his curved blade drawing a crescent-shaped arc in an attempt to stop Liu Lingzhen.
But Liu Lingzhen was too fast; so fast that everyone only saw a blur before their eyes.
He had already penetrated the wall of people, and his palm strike was aimed directly at Wu Baihan's face.
At this critical moment, a figure arrived first, even though it was behind.
It turned out that Gao Kezi's palm strike had precisely collided with Liu Lingzhen's palm.
"Bam—!"
Two completely different energies collided violently, forming a visible shockwave.
Many warriors around were immediately thrown backward by the shockwave.
Some even crashed into the palace walls and fainted.
Large pieces of tile from the palace rooftops, damaged by the recent battle, fell to the ground with a sharp, piercing sound.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Liu Lingzhen retreated three zhang and landed steadily on a broken beam.
Gao Kezi also stepped back two zhang, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
The young man's palm strike was much stronger than he had expected.
Gao Kezi's fighting spirit was completely ignited by Liu Lingzhen.
He laughed heartily and exclaimed, "Excellent! What a wonderful Illusionary Spirit Technique! I haven't felt this exhilarated in a long time!"
After saying that, he took the initiative to attack Liu Lingzhen.
The vital energy gathered in his palm, while Liu Lingzhen countered with the Illusionary Spirit Technique, the blue and white vital energy flowing erratically.
The two cyclones tightly entangled the opponent's attack.
The two fought from outside the palace to mid-air, and then continued their battle from mid-air to the side hall on the left.
Gao Kezi slammed his palm on a pillar, and the entire side hall collapsed instantly.
Stone fragments flew everywhere, but his figure did not stop, and his palm wind went straight for Liu Lingzhen's back.
Liu Lingzhen lightly touched the ground with her toes to use the momentum to spin around and avoid the palm strike.
He conjured two energy blades in each hand, slashing towards Gao Kezi's wrist.
Three crisp "ding-ding-ding" sounds.
Liu Lingzhen's Yuan Qi Blade was blocked by Gao Kezi's sleeve, forcing him to temporarily halt his attack.
The bluestone slabs beneath their feet were cracked with spiderweb-like patterns.
Wu Baihan hid behind the warriors, watching the two fight to a standstill.
His heart was pounding every moment.
Although Gao Kezi currently holds the upper hand, he is unable to defeat Liu Lingzhen for the time being.
He immediately ordered Baliqiaobu and the others, "What are you all standing there for? Attack me all at once!"
More than ten experts at the Great Yuan Realm, including Bali Qiaobu and An Kongju, exchanged glances and drew their weapons.
They knew that with their cultivation level, they were not on the same level as Gao Kezi and Liu Lingzhen.
With a dozen or twenty people joining forces, plus Gao Kezi keeping Liu Lingzhen in check, they might not be without a chance of winning.
"Liu Lingzhen, stop being so arrogant!"
Barry Chob charged out first, his moves creating a sandstorm, specializing in disrupting his opponent's vision.
An Kongju, meanwhile, held a poisoned dart in his hand, which flew like a venomous snake, waiting for Liu Lingzhen to reveal a weakness.
