Chapter 28: Jade Skin Gu! Jiang Luoli Defeated! Escaping Like a Cicada Shedding Its Skin!
A dull sound of collision rang out, and white smoke flickered past in front of Jiang Luoli.
She waved her hand to disperse the white smoke and stared intently at the spot of the previous attack, only to see Lu Chuan still completely unscathed; she had actually failed to break through his defense.
Thus, her eyes darted around, and she pulled out another bamboo tube, pouring a crystalline little insect from it.
In an instant, the crystalline little insect's body grew rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a jade-white protective barrier, firmly shielding her inside.
With this layer of protection, Jiang Luoli felt much more at ease: "It's fortunate I have the Jade Skin Gu, a Gu insect that can turn into a white jade light barrier; it can greatly enhance my defense, otherwise... just the terrifying power of this 'Poison King' would be almost more than I could bear!"
At this very moment, Lu Chuan and Jiang Luoli were still in a state of one chasing and one fleeing.
Relying on his extreme speed and massive physique, Lu Chuan swung his tail again, heading straight for his opponent.
Rumble—
In an instant, Jiang Luoli's speed suddenly spiked by a large margin, and she shot forward, but when Lu Chuan caught up, he discovered that she was actually unharmed, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "I clearly hit her just now, how can she be fine?"
"What exactly is that crystalline little insect? To actually have such power?"
……
At the same time.
The great battle within the Peach Forest continued.
Dozens of giant beasts led by Jingang were rampaging wildly.
The Transcendental who had followed Jiang Luoli had originally been high in fighting spirit, but when facing the wolf packs and ape packs, these mere dozen or so Transcendental appeared exceptionally powerless.
Not to mention that Xiaoqing, Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and other powerful exotic beasts were lurking nearby, eyeing them covetously.
While Lu Chuan was chasing Jiang Luoli, these Transcendental let out continuous screams, each one becoming exceptionally nervous and terrified.
"Ah!"
"Beast, I'll fight you to the death!"
Finally, one Transcendental was driven to a breakdown by the fear in their heart, and now they directly pulled out a firearm and pulled the trigger at the giant wolf closest to them.
"Bang!"
"Roar—"
The moment the gunshot rang out, the giant wolf let out an angry roar due to the pain.
Ignoring the gunshot wound on its body, it forcibly pounced in front of this Transcendental and tore them to pieces!
In an instant, a rain of blood filled the sky, and fragments of flesh and blood flew everywhere! "Ahhh..."
"I'm going to kill you all!"
Zhao Hu was also nearly driven mad; his entire body was flashing with large amounts of flames as he lashed out at the nearby exotic beasts.
Not far away, Jingang saw that many of the Giant Ape had been severely wounded by this human, and in his anger, like that giant wolf, he withstood the surging flames and rushed forward, his sharp and massive claws slapping down rapidly.
Splat—
In an instant, the flames collapsed abruptly, and after Zhao Hu staggered back several steps, he fell to the ground with a thud.
He widened his eyes, staring fixedly at the sky almost covered by trees, his life force dissipating.
In just a short moment, every Transcendental who had entered the Peach Forest was slaughtered and killed, not even waiting for Jiang Luoli to return.
Clearly, this 'Capture Snake Operation' had ended in failure! ……
And outside the Peach Forest, Lu Chuan flicked his massive snake tail, aiming at the jade-white figure in front, attacking incessantly.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Amidst the loud noises, terrifying destruction was caused, resulting in trees falling and soil flying wherever Lu Chuan passed, almost like a carpet bombing of cannon shells. However, Jiang Luoli's movement technique was very profound; eight or nine times out of ten, she could avoid these attacks.
Consequently, Lu Chuan's methods were like using a cannon to hit a mosquito.
"Let's see where you can run to!"
"Spirit Snake Swift Step!"
Suddenly, Lu Chuan utilized this ability, directly increasing his speed, and successfully caught Jiang Luoli off guard; the snake tail lashed fiercely against her body.
"Crack—"
In an instant, the white jade protective barrier shattered, and the snake tail sent Jiang Luoli even further away.
"Pfft!"
This time, Jiang Luoli had nowhere to hide; while in mid-air, she vomited blood wildly, her complexion turned pale in an instant, and her heart was filled with great terror.
"Hmph!"
Seeing this, Lu Chuan sneered incessantly in his heart: "Back then, you were the one chasing me until I fled in a panic, and now... it's my turn to take revenge!"
Under the enhancement of Spirit Snake Swift Step, Lu Chuan quickly pursued; any towering giant trees blocking his path were directly crushed by him, creating a great deal of commotion.
No matter what, he would not let this woman go, and today he wanted to take this opportunity to blast her to death.
In this way, the Blood Seal left on his forehead might be eliminated.
Not far away, Jiang Luoli was severely injured, with countless bones broken inside her body, but seeing Lu Chuan in hot pursuit, she still forcibly executed that incredibly profound movement technique and leaped onto a tree branch.
Tap! Tap! Tap! At this moment, one could see a petite figure in the forest jumping and galloping between giant trees, followed by a massive giant python; the giant python was even more savage and overbearing, smashing countless trees to pieces.
Jiang Luoli looked back, and seeing Lu Chuan's momentum undiminished, she became increasingly anxious, "Damn it! How did it become so powerful!"
"What exactly has it encountered during this time!"
To avoid being caught by Lu Chuan, she deliberately knocked down some trees to obstruct his path, but she still couldn't escape, which made her feel extremely aggrieved: "To think that I, a dignified Gu Immortal reborn, am actually being chased and fleeing in a panic by a beast!"
"What a supreme humiliation!"
Jiang Luoli finally understood this time that she might never be able to subdue Lu Chuan again, so she directly regarded him as a beast, no longer calling him 'little darling' at every turn: "'Poison King', I have noted today's grudge!"
"Once I escape alive and become even more powerful, I will definitely come back for revenge!"
"You just wait for me!"
But just as she was making her vow, Lu Chuan's body suddenly shrank, passing directly through the gaps in the obstacles formed by the fallen trees, and his speed became even faster!
Jiang Luoli was still wondering, had that 'Poison King' given up because it felt it couldn't catch her?
But the next second, Lu Chuan's massive body appeared again, seemingly catching up in an instant, which filled her heart with great shock.
"Damn it!"
"How does it still have such bizarre methods?"
"No, if this continues, I will definitely be caught!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Luoli gritted her teeth; when her jade hand touched the last bamboo tube at her waist, a look of struggle appeared on her face, but the current situation did not allow her to hesitate.
Finally, she opened the bamboo tube, and a small golden insect quickly flew out from within; before its appearance could be clearly seen, it transformed into a golden light, enveloping Jiang Luoli.
"Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell!"
The moment this low shout rang out, Jiang Luoli actually vanished from the spot, leaving behind only the corpse of the golden Gu Insect!
