Chapter 1294: Battle on the Mountaintop

The mountaintop.

A stretch of silence.

Within the Spring Eye, spring water continuously gushed out, flowing into the surrounding pool.

The sound of the splashing water was clearly audible.

In the pool.

The woman and Wang Jianqiang stared wide-eyed at each other, the atmosphere seemingly frozen.

Perhaps because she had just awakened, the woman's gaze held a momentary blankness.

The next moment.

A trace of clarity returned to her eyes.

She froze for a moment, then reacted, her pupils suddenly constricting.

Swish!

With almost no hesitation, she raised a finger and pointed it toward Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang was startled and instinctively moved to retreat.

But when he sensed the woman's cultivation level, he couldn't help but laugh.

Nascent Soul Early Stage?

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he gave up on dodging.

Ding~

The woman's fingertip landed on Wang Jianqiang, sparking a crisp sound like clashing metal.

Wang Jianqiang was completely unharmed.

The woman let out a muffled groan, as if she had poked a piece of immovable immortal gold; her fingertip felt a sharp pain, and she staggered backward.

She didn't stop until she hit the edge of the pool, her face turning pale.

Looking at Wang Jianqiang again, her pretty face was filled with anger, and a cold voice emerged from her mouth.

"Which sect are you a Cultivator of?"

Seeing the woman's eyes.

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow.

This woman looked as young as a girl, yet her gaze revealed an inexplicable sense of maturity.

It gave people a strong sense of contrast.

Upon noticing this, Wang Jianqiang's eyes brightened, and a warm smile appeared on his face, "Heh heh heh, little beauty, did your mother never teach you that before asking about someone else's identity, you should reveal your own first?"

"Which sect are you a Cultivator of? Why are you so ill-mannered?"

"I only saw that your life was hanging by a thread and wanted to check on you, just out of concern."

"Is there any need to be this angry?"

As he spoke, Wang Jianqiang's gaze couldn't help but drift over the woman's body.

"Scoundrel!"

Seeing this, the woman's anger grew even more intense.

A flash of light appeared on her body, and a Magic Dress covered her.

She waved her palm.

A Jade Bead flew out.

Seeing this scene, Wang Jianqiang's expression turned to shock.

His figure retreated violently.

Boom!

After chasing for over a thousand zhang, the Jade Bead exploded.

Rolling black smoke rose up, blotting out the sky and sun.

It took quite a while for the violent power and thick smoke to fully dissipate.

On the mountaintop ground.

Centered on the explosion area, within a radius of over a hundred zhang, thick cracks crisscrossed like a spider web.

Swish~

Wang Jianqiang's figure flashed, appearing at the site of the explosion.

He looked at the mountaintop below, his expression sinking.

This mountain peak was incredibly hard; even for him, a full-force strike could only leave a crack a zhang wide and a dozen zhang long on the ground.

As for creating such a large area of collapse in one strike...

I'm afraid only a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator could do that, right?

Fortunately, this woman's cultivation was low, her power insufficient, and the speed of the Magic Treasure she threw was lacking.

Plus, his reaction was fast enough that he escaped far enough before the bead exploded.

Otherwise, if he had been even slightly grazed by this power...

Wouldn't he have been blown to bits?

Thinking of this, Wang Jianqiang looked at the woman in the pool, the smile on his face becoming even warmer, "Heh heh heh, little beauty, your temper is truly fiery."

"Your Brother Tianyu here just happens to like your kind."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jianqiang's figure flashed, appearing in the pool once more.

The next moment.

The woman raised her palm.

Several beads flew out.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted; he paused his steps, then hurriedly turned to flee.

Boom, boom, boom~~~

Following a series of roaring sounds.

Whether icy cold, scorching hot, or sharp and piercing...

Various disparate powers erupted, continuously intertwining and ravaging the mountaintop.

Until these powers dissipated.

Swish!

Wang Jianqiang flew up from the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the mountaintop that had become a complete mess, he couldn't help but grimace.

Damn it~

Playing dirty, are we?

Who fights without using their own hands, only throwing Disposable Magic Treasures?

This is just too shameless!

At the same time.

In the pool, the woman's expression also changed.

Although she could not discern this person's cultivation, she could sense from the speed at which he fled that his cultivation was not very high.

At most, it was around the Integration Mid-Stage.

Under normal circumstances.

Any single one of those Disposable Magic Treasures of hers would have been enough to blast this person to death.

But this person's reaction was too fast.

And her own cultivation at this moment was too low.

This was what created the current passive situation.

"Heh heh heh, little beauty, you have quite a few Magic Treasures."

"Come, come..."

"Let brother see, are there any more?"

Just at this moment, that sleazy voice came again.

The woman frowned, her expression remaining calm, without revealing the slightest trace of panic.

Since attacking wouldn't work, then she would defend!

As long as she could stall the opponent.

Once she succeeded in her cultivation, it would be this brat's death day!

She waved her palm.

An Array Disk flew out.

The next moment.

The Array Disk merged into the void.

Hum~

The surrounding heaven and earth suddenly shook, and a curtain of light manifested, enveloping a region with a diameter of one hundred zhang, centered on her and the pool.

Wang Jianqiang was charging toward the woman again.

Having just flown halfway, he stopped mid-air upon seeing this.

Looking at the light curtain in front, he raised an eyebrow.

A Seven-Tier Array?

This Nascent Soul Stage woman certainly has quite a few treasures on her.

It is just a pity.

A mere Seven-Tier Intermediate Array cannot stop him.

A flash of Golden Light emerged in his eyes.

Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze activated, his gaze scanning the Array continuously, beginning to discern the trajectory of the Array's power circulation.

Inside the Array.

Seeing that the thief had stopped his advance and did not rashly attack her Array.

A cold sneer appeared on her face.

This thief has a decent eye, actually recognizing the extraordinariness of this Array at a glance.

It is a pity.

This Array does not merely possess the effect of defense and sealing.

It also possesses a certain passive counter-attack effect.

As long as it is attacked, the power of the Array will lock onto the attacker's aura and implement a counter-attack against them.

If this thief had not stopped, but instead attacked the Array.

He would likely have already been blasted to death by the Array by now.

But it does not matter.

Her great work is about to be completed; unless this thief flees immediately right now.

Otherwise...

Once she succeeds, she will definitely make this thief regret it too late!

A flash of icy killing intent flickered in her eyes.

She sat cross-legged inside the pool, keeping a depth where only her head was exposed.

She was just about to close her eyes.

Suddenly...

She seemed to have sensed something and looked abruptly toward the outside of the Array.

That scoundrel suddenly moved.

He did not leave, nor did he attack the Array.

Instead, he crashed directly into the Array!

Seeing this scene, a look of strangeness flashed across the woman's face.

"Is there something wrong with this guy's brain?"

"Is he courting death?"

The next moment.

Her eyes suddenly widened into perfect circles.

She saw that after the scoundrel crashed into the Array, the scene of blood splattering everywhere that she had imagined did not appear.

That scoundrel had actually passed through the light screen of the Array without the slightest obstruction!

"How is this possible!"

Watching that figure pass through the Array, she could not help but exclaim out loud.
