Chapter 218: Self-Destruct?

~7 min read 1,344 words

The "lecherous" smiling face before her suddenly made the silver-haired woman recall some unbearable past events.

A flash of anger surged across her beautiful face.

Wang Jianqiang did not give the silver-haired woman time to react; he swung his golden fist and smashed it out.

"Take this blow from me."

Sensing the terrifying power contained within this strike.

The silver-haired woman calmed down instantly.

She frowned and looked at the figure moving away in the distance, choosing not to dodge.

Bringing her palms together, she once again erected a Spiritual Power Barrier in front of her.

However, what attacked this time was no longer the fist force vibrating with power, but Wang Jianqiang's solid, physical punch.

The moment the golden fist landed on the Spiritual Power Barrier.

The Spiritual Power Barrier shattered instantly.

But the silver-haired woman was not Ye Lingyun.

Whether in terms of power control or combat experience, she was clearly far more powerful.

She had already anticipated this scene before setting up her defense.

The moment she laid down the Spiritual Power Barrier, she pulled back and retreated.

By the time Wang Jianqiang's fist broke the Spiritual Power Barrier, she had already retreated a distance, dodging Wang Jianqiang's attack.

Wang Jianqiang frowned.

He pursued her.

The silver-haired woman's expression was solemn, her jade fingers tapping repeatedly.

Strands of Spirit Silk Thread spread out.

Intersecting and crisscrossing.

In the blink of an eye, they wove into a large net, covering Wang Jianqiang.

Golden Light flashed in Wang Jianqiang's eyes.

He turned his palm into a blade and slashed from top to bottom.

The Spirit Net snapped instantly.

Seeing this, the silver-haired woman's eyes narrowed.

"Such strong insight!"

This Spirit Net of hers was woven from a large number of extremely compressed Spirit Silk Threads.

It was the strongest enemy-trapping method she could currently employ.

Even a Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator could not break it so easily.

In terms of pure attack power, Wang Jianqiang was a cut above the average Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator, but he definitely should not have been able to cut the Spirit Net in one strike.

The reason the Spirit Net was easily severed was not because Wang Jianqiang's power exceeded the net's limit.

It was because Wang Jianqiang had seen through all the connection points of the Spirit Net.

By attacking along the connection points, he had broken the Spirit Net in one strike!

Thinking of this, she sighed inwardly.

After all, she was only a Soul Body.

If her physical body were intact.

How could her attacks have such a major weakness?

Swish~

Just at this moment.

A figure rushed through the middle of the Spirit Net, which had been split in two, and instantly appeared before the silver-haired woman.

A fist smashed into her flat abdomen.

The silver-haired woman let out a muffled groan and was sent flying backward.

"This tactile sensation, it is clearly no different from a real body!"

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted.

He charged at the woman again.

The woman gritted her silver teeth, about to gather Spirit Qi from heaven and earth to counterattack.

A Righteous Hand instantly pierced through the Spirit Qi in front of her and pressed against her chest.

The next moment, a massive force erupted.

Her figure was sent flying backward, becoming somewhat more illusory.

"Tsk tsk, I couldn't tell, you really are hiding your true colors."

Just as the silver-haired woman steadied her figure, a light laugh suddenly entered her ears.

She turned her head subconsciously, and immediately, a face with a playful expression came into view.

The silver-haired woman reacted instantly, a flash of shame and annoyance crossing her face.

Just then, she suddenly saw Wang Jianqiang wave his palm.

Her expression startled, she subconsciously moved to dodge.

However, to her shock and anger, Wang Jianqiang's attack merely stirred up a strong gust of wind.

Caught off guard, her skirt was instantly blown up.

"Haha, I let you escape last time, but you can't run this time, right?"

"Let Wang take a good look at what mysteries your Soul Body truly holds."

Wang Jianqiang wore a smug smile while focusing his gaze forward.

The first thing to come into view was a pair of long, straight legs, and then...

"Damn it, I hate holy light."

Wang Jianqiang's face darkened.

It really wasn't a physical body; that area was actually shrouded in holy light, without a single detail to be seen.

Although Wang Jianqiang had failed to get his way, his actions had thoroughly enraged the silver-haired woman.

How noble was her status?

If it were in the past, an ant-like creature such as this would not even have the qualifications to catch a glimpse of her.

Yet now, she had actually been humiliated by this ant!

"Bastard, go to hell!"

She gritted her teeth and glared at Wang Jianqiang, her figure suddenly exploding.

In an instant, the Spiritual Power within a radius of a hundred zhang surged violently.

Wang Jianqiang's expression tightened.

Spirit Pattern Power instantly spread throughout his entire body.

Boom!

The next moment, a shocking explosion suddenly erupted in this patch of heaven and earth.

The astonishing power of the explosion instantly engulfed him.

"Senior Brother Wang!"

Seeing this scene, Mu Lingxi and Su Yutong were shocked and terrified.

Xing Li's expression shifted, and a trace of joy welled up in her heart.

If Wang Jianqiang died.

She would be able to regain her freedom.

Under the close observation of the three, the explosion continued for over a dozen breaths before gradually subsiding.

As the explosion died down, a figure reappeared within the trio's line of sight.

This figure's clothes were tattered and their hair was disheveled.

Through the torn clothes, one could see that their skin, which was glowing with Golden Light, was covered in wounds deep enough to reach the bone.

However, what was astonishing was.

Their injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, the blood flowing from those wounds stopped, and the wounds quickly healed.

Seeing this scene, Mu Lingxi and Su Yutong were both overjoyed.

While Xing Li felt regret in her heart, she was also struck by a wave of shock.

What kind of recovery speed was this?

It was simply terrifying!

"This crazy woman!"

Wang Jianqiang let out a long breath.

The self-detonation of a Soul Body equivalent to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage was not so easy to endure.

Even his physical body, which was capable of withstanding the full-force attack of an ordinary Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator, had actually been heavily injured to this extent.

A moment later.

Under the recovery of the Pure Yang Power, the injuries on Wang Jianqiang's body had already recovered by more than half.

He looked at Mu Lingxi and Su Yutong, then cast a meaningful glance at Xing Li.

"You handle things here; I'm going to chase Ye Lingyun."

After saying this, he instantly shot toward the horizon, pursuing in the direction Ye Lingyun had fled.

After Wang Jianqiang's figure disappeared into the horizon.

Su Yutong withdrew her gaze, turned to look at the figure not far away, and a flash of mockery crossed her face.

"Your Big Brother Ye seems to have forgotten you."

Upon seeing Ye Lingyun flee, Yun Xin's face had already turned pale; hearing Su Yutong's mocking voice now, her body swayed, and she nearly collapsed to the ground.

Her heart was filled with bitterness.

In her impression, Big Brother Ye had always been a person who valued relationships and righteousness, with a gentle and steady personality.

Precisely because of this, when Su Yutong said Big Brother Ye had abandoned her, she still firmly believed that Big Brother Ye was not a heartless or unrighteous person, but rather had unspeakable difficulties.

Only now, with the same experience happening to herself, did she finally understand how Su Yutong felt.

It was just a pity that Su Yutong had turned danger into safety and followed Wang Jianqiang.

While she, it seemed, was not so lucky.
