Chapter 391 The Difficult Kong Sheng
Chapter 391 The Difficult Kong Sheng
"Mu An, why?!"
Kong Sheng was almost furious as he looked at the traitorous Mu An.
When he arrived, he had already applied the secret technique of the Greedy Wolf Hall to Wei Dasheng and Mu An.
As long as they encountered any problems, he would immediately receive the news.
Just now, Wei Dasheng's life force was cut off, and Kong Sheng immediately sensed that something was wrong.
Now seeing Mu An standing in front of him, he instantly understood what was going on.
"Junior Brother Kong, those who recognize the situation are the talented ones. So, are you prepared to die?" Mu An sneered, glancing at the sky as he spoke.
"Heh, Mu An, do you think that as a disciple who has just entered the Gold Core stage, you can kill me? And you, Lu Yu, I didn't expect you to be quite capable, actually able to subdue this pawn." Lu Yu curled his lips.
No matter what he said, in the end, the winner would be the one who survived. As for how to win, was it really that important?
But just because he didn't speak didn't mean that Ling Tianxin wouldn't.
She had been holding her anger in her heart, and now that she finally saw the main culprit, could she still endure it?
"Kong Sheng, you bastard! We are at least fellow disciples, and you won't even spare me?"
"Tch, as long as I can threaten anyone who can hinder me from completing the Tianji Trial, I won't spare them." Kong Sheng glanced at Ling Tianxin and said.
In his eyes, fellow disciples were not as real as taking one more step forward in the Tianji Trial.
Facing such a ruthless person, Lu Yu could only say: he really deserved to die!
"Let's do it, kill him and we can go back and report."
"Okay. Junior Brother Kong, don't worry, I'll be quick and won't hurt you." Mu An nodded. Since he had already killed two people, he didn't care about killing one more.
Anyway, the outcome didn't make much difference anymore.
He beckoned and the long sword in Liang Xi's chest returned to his hand. Then, with a flick of his left hand, he stabbed towards Kong Sheng.
"Ding!"
The sword stabbed forward, but only a light sound was heard.
Mu An was slightly surprised, then laughed.
"Junior Brother Kong, the Hall Master really favors you. He even gave you the town-protecting treasure, the Thousand Gold Shield. But with your Foundation Building stage strength, how long can you activate this treasure?"
"Oh my god, the Hall Master actually gave him the Thousand Gold Shield? That's just too biased!" Lu Yu didn't know how valuable the Thousand Gold Shield was, but Ling Tianxin, as an outstanding disciple of the Greedy Wolf Hall, knew too well.
It was one of the few top-grade defensive treasures in the Greedy Wolf Hall.
It was even said to be unbreakable by even a Void God Realm expert's attack.
And now it appeared on Kong Sheng, it seemed that there might be some trouble.
"Hmph, treasures like the Thousand Gold Shield are naturally only worthy of geniuses like me. As for you, let you experience the power of the Thousand Gold Shield!" Kong Sheng said as he waved his hand in the air.
Then, a faint golden oval-shaped shield appeared around him, enclosing him.
Inside the shield, the golden light circulated and then suddenly burst outwards.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh..."
After leaving the Thousand Gold Shield, these golden lights attacked Lu Yu and the others.
Lu Yu was greatly shocked and pulled Ling Tianxin and Bai Xiaoxi back.
Even though they didn't come into contact with it, they could feel the intense killing intent emanating from the golden lights.
If they get hit, it's likely that their lives as Foundation Building stage cultivators will be forfeit!
On the other side, Mu An swiftly reacted by swinging his sword.
"Thousand Star Stab!"
His sword transformed into countless cold stars, meeting the incoming golden lights head-on.
"Ding ding ding ding..."
It sounded like the intense collision of a hammer hitting nails, between him and Kong Sheng.
Mu An managed to intercept most of the golden lights, while Lu Yu took the opportunity to evade a few of them.
"I was careless. I should have waited a bit longer before coming out."
Finally safe, Lu Yu let out a sigh of relief. But at that moment, he suddenly felt a wave of killing intent beside him.
"How long do you plan on touching my thigh?"
"Ah? Misunderstanding, it was just a moment of excitement."
Lu Yu looked at the position of his right hand and awkwardly laughed.
Initially, he instinctively pulled Ling Tianxin and Bai Xiaoxi to run, indeed grabbing their waists.
But after running out, his hand unintentionally went down, turning into a leg touch.
Now it was a bit embarrassing.
"I'll settle the score with you when we get back!"
Ling Tianxin raised her fist in a threatening manner, but didn't actually strike.
She wasn't foolish. Although they were temporarily out of danger, the battle wasn't over yet.
On the other side, Mu An's fierce and rapid attacks successfully repelled Kong Sheng's magical treasure attacks.
When both sides stopped, he sneered at Kong Sheng.
"Junior brother, even if you have a Heaven-ranked magical treasure, what can you do with it? You're just a Foundation Building stage cultivator. How much spiritual power do you have to control such a powerful magical treasure? Once your spiritual power is depleted, you'll be at the mercy of others."
"Foundation Building stage cultivator? Mu An, I'm afraid you don't know that I can break through to the Gold Core stage at any time, right?"
"I know, but if you break through to the Gold Core stage, you won't be able to enter the Tianji Trial, right? Hehe, I don't think you're that foolish."
Mu An laughed confidently.
The Tianji Trial was extremely important to disciples like them from the Greedy Wolf Hall. And Kong Sheng had used so many means just to ensure victory in the Tianji Trial.
If he were to break through in advance, wouldn't all those means become meaningless?
"But now, even if I break through to the Gold Core stage, I can compress my strength back to the Foundation Building stage using a secret technique."
"In other words, even if I break through to the Gold Core stage, I can return to the Foundation Building stage at any time. Hahaha, didn't expect that, did you?"
As Kong Sheng spoke, he burst into laughter.
Accompanying his laughter was a powerful surge of spiritual power.
Even Mu An couldn't remain calm anymore.
He had just broken through to the Gold Core stage himself. It was only with the strength of someone one realm higher that he could overwhelm these Foundation Building stage cultivators.
But if Kong Sheng were to break through during the battle, he might not be able to defeat him.
After all, his talent was quite ordinary, and reaching the Gold Core stage was already his limit. But Kong Sheng was a genius disciple even the hall master paid great attention to.
There were also differences in strength among those at the Gold Core stage, and Mu An was probably the weakest among them.
And Kong Sheng? Once he broke through, he would undoubtedly be the strongest.
In this way, their strengths would instantly reverse.
Thinking of this, cold sweat once again dripped down Mu An's forehead.
Today's outing was not going well. How did he encounter these monsters one after another?
He even thought that in the future, he must bring along a scapegoat before going out!
