Chapter 355
The blood-colored blade light drew closer and closer.
The Paper Immortal's expression was indifferent, not fearing in the slightest; he even thought this was a good opportunity to wash away his previous shame.
His fingers beneath his wide robe flicked from bottom to top, and three thick, square paper blocks floated up, blocking the space between the Paper Immortal and the blade light.
A single sheet of paper is very fragile and can be easily pierced with a finger, but when multiple sheets are stacked together, their strength increases linearly, even capable of resisting swords, arrows, and spears. In ancient armies, paper armor was once used to defend against enemies.
And the strength of the armor plates created by the Paper Immortal far exceeded normal paper armor; just one layer was enough to block Wei Hengbo's blade back then. With three layers stacked together, could it not block Wei Qinglan? Swish! The Paper Immortal's body leaned back violently, and the flaming blade tip grazed past his Adam's apple.
"This power, something's wrong!"
The Paper Immortal's eyes squinted, his pupils dilating until they almost burst. He saw those three paper armor plates, which were like copper walls and iron bastions, being sliced in two by a single blade as if they were tofu. The upper half was still suspended in the air, while the lower half had already fallen.
The more times Wei Hengbo's Blood-Drinking Goose Feather Blade was swung, the more powerful it became, but after reaching a certain threshold, the blade body would shatter and could no longer be used.
Originally, this blade had already reached its limit when Wei Hengbo wounded the Paper Immortal's avatar.
But Wei Hengbo had died, and the siblings had become one; the power of the Blood-Drinking Goose Feather Blade was preserved, but the value leading to the blade's damage had been reset. Coupled with Wei Qinglan's multiple reinforcements using the Sharp Talisman, Flame Talisman, etc., its power was no longer what it used to be; even steel could be easily sliced open!
With the blade's momentum spent, Wei Qinglan switched hands smoothly and lifted the blade from the other side for a diagonal slash.
The Paper Immortal's body drifted backward lightly.
Among the Three Immortals, the Paper Immortal was most skilled at long-range attacks. Since he couldn't block this blade, he would just dodge further away. By constantly attacking with paper, Wei Qinglan would eventually reach her limit.
But just as the Paper Immortal drifted a meter away, his shoulders were pressed by two broad, thick palms.
Blocking him were two burly armored fierce generals, one red and one green. These were the burial paper people of the Wei siblings, reinforced by the Heavenly Craft Divine Brush and the Human Skin Paper! The Paper Immortal's eyes widened, and an invisible wave erupted, sending the two paper people flying backward directly.
But it was precisely because of this delay that Wei Qinglan gripped the blade with both hands and thrust forward. The Paper Immortal lost the chance to dodge and could only avoid his vital points, his shoulder being pierced directly by the flaming blade.
Being wounded by this blade for the third time made the Paper Immortal's eyes turn red; he no longer had the composure of someone who had everything under control. He grabbed the blade with one hand and pinched Wei Qinglan's palm with the other, releasing countless paper scraps from his body, which crawled all over Wei Qinglan's body like ants.
Creak, creak...
Harsh sounds of metal being destroyed emanated from everywhere on Wei Qinglan's body. Although she was protected by the Gilded Bright Armor, how long could this armor block the Paper Immortal? If this were a one-on-one duel, the Paper Immortal would have already won.
Pity.
This was not one-on-one.
Just as the Paper Immortal was single-mindedly wanting to crush Wei Qinglan to death, a sharp pain suddenly came from behind; it turned out to be Su Xuan behind him, stabbing him several times with a small dagger.
The Paper Immortal's body was composed entirely of paper, without even flesh or internal organs, so naturally, there would be no poisoning reaction. But after being stabbed by this dagger, the Paper Immortal felt an unbearable, itchy pain spreading from those wounds throughout his entire body.
Whoosh, whoosh! Su Xuan easily dodged two paper spears. The rust on the dagger in his hand spread, turning into a pile of metal slag that drifted from Su Xuan's hand; it had already completed its mission.
This dagger had a gentle name, called 'Lady Xu'.
Its blade was coated with a deadly poison, capable of wounding evil entities!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Qinglan pulled out the Goose Feather Blade and cast a flame incantation on herself. The raging fire burned the paper scraps on her body to ashes, and she continued to swing the blade, forcing the Paper Immortal.
Seeing that both the Retainer in front and behind were threats, fear arose in the Paper Immortal's heart for the first time. He realized that his momentary negligence had plunged him into a dangerous situation.
He hurriedly looked at the other two immortals, only to find that they were also in a sorry state under the Retainers' surprise attacks.
Boom! Bang! Among the Three Immortals, the Porcelain Immortal was best at close combat. He swung his fists and kicked his legs angrily; wherever he passed, walls broke and the ground shattered, with constant shaking sounds.
Although the momentum was astonishing. But because his vision was blocked, the Porcelain Immortal always failed to hit that 'dog bastard'.
This 'dog bastard' wasn't an insult, but a description.
Around the Porcelain Immortal was a heteromorphic monster; this monster had a body like a dog-man, with spider legs growing from its ribs, and its body occasionally turned ethereal like a ghost. Although its strength and speed were inferior to the Porcelain Immortal's, the Porcelain Immortal's attacks always missed.
This was Ran Huang Tian.
Due to his unique constitution, Ran Huang Tian had a great advantage when using various divine abilities, but divine abilities all had limitations, so his combat endurance wasn't long. Moreover, the Porcelain Immortal's body was cast like steel, and Ran Huang Tian's attacks couldn't break his defense at all.
After a stalemate for a while.
Suddenly, a person jumped out, scaring the Porcelain Immortal so much that he ignored Ran Huang Tian and instead blocked his head with his arms, covering his eyes.
This person who suddenly popped out was naturally Li Xian. Since the others had already come down, there was no need for Li Xian to continue hiding. He held a piece of Creation Divine Rust in each hand, preparing to turn the Porcelain Immortal from half-blind to completely blind.
But the Porcelain Immortal had already suffered a loss, so how could he let him have his way?
As long as he was strictly on guard, it would be impossible to fall for such low-level tricks again.
And then...
The Porcelain Immortal's hands blocking his eyes pried his own eyelids open.
The last scene he saw was a young woman with a slicked-back hairstyle, using a straw doll against him, posing the straw doll in the action of using hands to open eyes.
Then two lumps of Creation Divine Rust plastered on. Now, all the rust was stuck on the Porcelain Immortal's eyes; this time, he was completely blind...
Du E took a piece of paper from her pocket, on which were words she had previously asked Du Rushi to write. She traced the words in the void, and a moment later, the character 'Shackle' took shape.
"Go!"
The Porcelain Immortal, whose eyes were completely blind, had another set of shackles added to his body.
On the Flower Immortal's side.
She was manipulating vine roots and branches to entangle with two zombies.
These two zombies were both young women, shimmering with a brass luster, their bodies incomparably hard; the root hairs whipping onto them felt like whipping iron blocks.
After multiple god-worships, Wen Chao had refined these two into Copper Armored Corpses.
In particular, a female zombie wearing metal fingernail covers on her hands was even more ferocious; the fingernails could easily tear through hard branches. This was a god-worship prop obtained by Jiang Chun; after she turned into a zombie, these fingernail covers also became a part of her.
However, for the Flower Immortal.
The threat of these two zombies wasn't great.
The danger of zombies came from their ferocity in drinking blood and eating flesh, as well as their indestructible bodies.
But the Flower Immortal had no flesh or blood, and among the Three Immortals, she was most skilled at control and searching. Her vines and branches could easily suppress things like zombies that were inconvenient to move.
Seeing that the Flower Immortal had already gained the upper hand.
Suddenly, a little old man rushed over, knocking the two zombies away in one go, reaching out to protect the Flower Immortal behind him, and saying to the Flower Immortal in a strange tone: "My lady, do not fear, I am here to assist you!"
