Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Chapter 1295: Chapter 1003: So What If Defeated, So What If You Leave?

”Brother Jiang, now that Xiong Ba is gone, you can prepare to breakthrough with ease. I will protect you here!”

Nie Renwang swung his cold Ice Blade, and the saber Qi howled, instantly extinguishing several flaming trees. Then he walked boldly to a distance within three zhang of Jiang Dali to protect him.

Jiang Dali conveyed a faint wave of gratitude and continued to keep his spirit calm as he silently guarded the Spirit Platform for the final closing.

Zhang Sanfeng exhaled a deep breath of turbid air, his chest relaxing, and returned to normal.

With his Power, having pioneered the Tai Chi, he had long reached the highest Realm of following his heart and achieving everything his mind desired. However, he did not expect that Xiong Ba, possessing the Heavenly Destiny Life Chart, would be so terrifyingly powerful, even affecting the celestial phenomena and borrowing Heavenly Will to aid Heaven’s Punishment, thus suffering considerable internal injuries.

But now, using the Upper Level Tai Chi Dharma of ”using the void to control reality,” his internal injuries had eased and reduced, requiring only a week of calm recuperation.

His gaze fell on Nie Renwang, he rose and humbly cupped his hands courteously, saying, ”With Hero Nie here guarding, I can rest assured. I must trouble Hero Nie for Master Jiang’s safety!”

Nie Renwang courteously punched his fists and laughed boldly, ”Master Zhang, you are too kind. Brother Jiang is my life-and-death friend, so I naturally assume the responsibility. Master Zhang, rest assured to recuperate.”

”Good!”

Zhang Sanfeng nodded and then turned to look at Yang Zhen and Xu Hong, who had been captured. Concerned, he scrutinized Zhang Wuji and Song Qingshu and, seeing the two children were unscathed, sighed in relief.

With his hundred years of Cultivation, humble and unassuming, he didn’t cling to anything, yet his deep mentorship made the safety of Zhang Wuji and Song Qingshu his utmost priority. Earlier, if Zhang Wuji hadn’t abruptly broken free from his bindings and triggered an incident for rescue, he wouldn’t have intercepted Xiong Ba immediately.

”Grandmaster, I also want to stay here and protect my master.”

Zhang Wuji stepped forward and spoke to Zhang Sanfeng.

”This...”

Zhang Sanfeng hesitated slightly, and Song Yuanqiao and the other heroes hurriedly advised against it.

If Xiong Ba returned to kill, although Zhang Wuji was not weak, he would undoubtedly become Xiong Ba’s target to capture as a hostage, hence he must not take risks.

Zhang Wuji was not an immature child, and upon hearing this, he understood the dangers, feeling anxious and guilty; if his abilities had already reached the Heavenly Human level, why would he be at the mercy of others as a hostage?

He was unaware, however, that his astonishing performance had caused the Wudang heroes to see him in a new light. Compared to Song Qingshu, who cowered fearfully in the face of danger, Zhang Wuji’s displayed bravery, calmness, wit, boldness, and even unyielding heroism had completely won over the crowd.

...

After the crowd left, those players and disciples who had rushed over upon hearing the news were also driven away.

South Rock returned to its desolate and serene state; the night breeze blew, bringing the fragrance from the Dragon’s Head Incense extending into the sky, invigorating the spirit.

Nie Renwang sat beside Jiang Dali with his saber guarding, focusing his Spirit, observing all movements through telepathy, under this concentration. Within a hundred zhang radius, even the sound of insects and ants touching the ground seemed like fish struggling in a net, with nothing slipping through his Spirit sensing.

This state persisted for an unknown time, until finally, morning light emerged at Heaven’s Edge, and the east turned white.

The Wudang Mountains seemed to shake off their black covers, revealing the weathered and silent faces of the elders.

Among the mountains, the sea of clouds rose and fell, and slowly, the eastern mist became slightly red, this redness intensifying until a bright red line suddenly appeared, and a scarlet wheel of light jumped out.

Nie Renwang opened his eyes, his pupils capturing Heaven’s Edge’s first trace of Purple Energy.

Suddenly, in his Spiritual Sense, Jiang Dali, whose Life Force was previously exceptionally vigorous, seemed to disappear instantly, as if body and soul were destroyed, no longer existing in this world.

This startled him, immediately turning his head to see that Jiang Dali clearly still sat beside him, simultaneously opening his eyes to capture the Purple Energy. But his whole essence, Qi, and spirit seemed to have merged with the Ten Thousand Transformations and Mysterious Union, clearly sitting three zhang away, yet completely undetectable.

Even as his Heavenly Person Sensing reached out, he inexplicably felt enormous rejection and threat, an unsettling feeling as if his Spirit might be cleaved apart.

”This is...”

Nie Renwang stared amazedly at Jiang Dali, now filled with a magical allure that chilled the heart.

Meeting the rising sun, Jiang Dali wore a familiar, strange, faint smile known to many and said, ”Brother Nie, I have succeeded!”

Nie Renwang’s eyes widened, ”You, you have broken through to the Returning to Truth Realm?”

Jiang Dali laughed wondrously, ”No, not yet. I have simply succeeded in escaping the will of this Heaven!”

Speaking this, his gaze turned upwards to the Heavenly Vault, still tinged in blue-green.

Just a moment ago, he fully detached from the systems of the Heavenly Human Realm, with Yin Yang Two Gods merging into pure spirit, he faintly felt a once extremely familiar strong crisis and a sensation of being locked.

That sensation, as if a terrifying unknown existence from beyond sniffed through a layer of transparent glass film.

With cold, merciless eyes surveying him, or rather, not only him but all living beings, possibly just giving him an extra look.

And it was that single glance that made him feel his three souls and seven spirits trembling, an inexplicable sensation seizing his mind, coupled with the first words he saw in the War God Temple appearing in his mind—”Heaven and Earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs!”
