Chapter 168: Slaying Foundation Establishment Again

Because this sword strike was closer, its power was also greater.

He Pingsheng had no time to deploy the Sacred Wood Shield.

He could only roll on the ground to try and dodge the sword light, while countless Metal-attribute magic power surged out of his body, replenishing the Jin Gang Shield.

Whether he could withstand it depended on this moment.

The sword light swept across the void, plowing a long trench in the ground, and the next moment it fell onto He Pingsheng's shield.

*Bang... *

Although He Pingsheng's body moved slightly, he ultimately couldn't dodge the sword light's attack.

The golden light membrane outside his body was instantly torn to shreds.

The remaining sword light fell onto his body.

The Daoist robe on his upper body was torn into countless fragments.

Fortunately, He Pingsheng had body-refining techniques, and he finally managed to block the remaining sword light by relying on the toughness of his physical body.

The towering ancient trees around them fell one by one.

Fire broke out everywhere, countless living creatures in the forest fled, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

But regardless, He Pingsheng had blocked Daoist Nun Feng's two attacks unscathed.

"Good kid!" After continuously unleashing two sword lights, Daoist Nun Feng's magic power was also somewhat insufficient, so she couldn't unleash a third strike in time.

Taking this opportunity, she began to curse again: "To actually block two of my sword strikes, you are truly worthy of being a disciple personally trained by the Ancestor!"

"He Pingsheng... today you will definitely die!"

"Last time, it was because I was careless!"

"This time, I'll let you see the difference between a peak cultivator and trash like you at the first layer, both in the Foundation Establishment stage!"

Just in the time it took to say these few words, Daoist Nun Feng's third sword light condensed and roared down again.

But it was useless.

He Pingsheng also took advantage of the opportunity just now to deploy the Sacred Wood Shield.

After deploying the Sacred Wood Shield this time, He Pingsheng didn't circulate Metal-attribute magic power to deploy the Jin Gang Shield again.

Instead, he launched a desperate counterattack.

He filled his meridians with Wood-attribute magic power, and after circulating it slightly, the surging spiritual power roared out.

*Boom... *

Daoist Nun Feng's ruthless sword light slashed down.

Just like the first time, the protection constructed by the Sacred Wood Shield outside He Pingsheng's body was instantly torn to shreds.

But it didn't matter!

He Pingsheng waved his hand and took out a treasure: the Nine-Glory Dragon-Slaying Flag.

He waved it casually, using attack as defense.

The large flag stretched out and stirred, shattering all the remaining force of the sword light.

These remaining forces turned into countless energies that exploded and surged in all directions.

Two more trees were snapped.

At the same time, vines appeared out of thin air from the ground, with over a dozen vines from different angles winding toward Daoist Nun Feng at the same time.

Magic technique: Sacred Wood Poison Dragon Technique!

The vines were like thorny poisonous snakes, winding toward Daoist Nun Feng frantically at incomparable speed.

Daoist Nun Feng was a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator who had failed to break through to the Golden Core stage several times; she could now be considered to be in the False Core realm.

So she naturally wouldn't be easily entangled by the vines.

"Slash..."

Daoist Nun Feng raised her hand, and sword light shot everywhere; the vines were almost all slashed to pieces with a *chi chi chi chi* sound.

Although some poisonous thorns flew out and sprayed poison, they ultimately failed to splash onto Daoist Nun Feng's body.

"Hmph hmph..." Daoist Nun Feng revealed a cold smile on her face: "He Pingsheng, you are very powerful... it's a pity, your cultivation is too low!"

"Go to hell..."

Daoist Nun Feng held her sword with both hands and slashed at He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng moved his feet and shifted ten zhang horizontally, barely dodging the sword energy attack, but the next moment, he felt the ground under his feet shake.

*Bang... *

A giant ice spike, a zhang in size, suddenly drilled out from the ground. If he hadn't reacted in time, he would have been pierced through the body by this spike.

*Bang... *

*Bang, bang, bang... *

Ice spikes emerged from the ground one after another, following He Pingsheng who was retreating continuously. In an instant, a giant ice dragon formed on the ground!

"Come again!"

Daoist Nun Feng didn't give He Pingsheng any chance to counterattack; she jumped ten zhang into the void and slashed down from the air again.

He Pingsheng also jumped into the air.

"Open..."

He opened all eight layers of restrictions on the black flag in his hand and thrust it out with a *boom*.

The next moment, a thick silver lightning bolt surged out and roared toward Daoist Nun Feng's sword light.

Magic technique: Large Flag Rolling Thunder Technique!

The two attacks collided.

And then exploded in the middle.

A peerless energy fluctuation formed a shockwave visible to the naked eye, rushing obliquely in all directions.

The giant trees around them fell one after another.

But in this strike, He Pingsheng was clearly at a disadvantage again, because his lightning power was exhausted, while the other party's sword energy still had fifty percent left, slashing toward him.

Open...

Sacred Wood Shield!

It was only after opening the Sacred Wood Shield for the third time that he finally completely resisted the other party's attack.

At this moment, He Pingsheng's Wood-attribute dantian was dry.

The few attacks he had just unleashed were almost entirely supported by the spiritual power of his Wood-attribute dantian.

Opening the Sacred Wood Shield three times, using the Sacred Wood Poison Dragon Technique once.

And using the Large Flag Rolling Thunder Technique once.

Lightning belongs to Wood, so naturally, it also consumed Wood spiritual energy.

Fearing that Daoist Nun Feng on the opposite side would launch an attack, He Pingsheng waved his hand and took out the 【Soul-Extinguishing Bell】.

He deployed it with a *bang*.

Because she had suffered from the Soul-Extinguishing Bell before, when Daoist Nun Feng saw He Pingsheng take out this bell, her body retreated rapidly.

He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as you retreat, that's fine.

What he wanted wasn't to use this Soul-Extinguishing Bell to destroy the other party, but to scare her away first.

And then free up some time to activate the talismans.

No choice!

He couldn't win in a head-on fight; this peak Foundation Establishment stage was simply too powerful.

He could only rely on external objects.

He Pingsheng waved his hand and took out a second-tier talisman.

The quality was top-tier.

Name: Jin Gang Talisman.

Back when he went to the Hou family to attend Hou Muxian's wedding, he had obtained a second-tier talisman 【Golden Bone Talisman】 at the trading fair, which, after strengthening, became two 【Jin Gang Talismans】.

He had already used one when fighting Daoist Changping and Daoist Nun Feng before.

Now, there was one left in his hand.

This was his last second-tier defensive talisman.

"Open..."

He Pingsheng shouted loudly.

After one breath, a golden light shield covered his body.

He Pingsheng was overjoyed.

When he activated this talisman back in the Qi Condensation stage, it took him a full three breaths to open it; this time, it only took one breath.

Very fast!

"Damn it!" Daoist Nun Feng in the void cursed: "How do you still have this damn thing?"

"Slash..."

Her body suddenly closed in, and she slashed at He Pingsheng with her sword.

He Pingsheng wasn't afraid.

Because last time, Daoist Nun Feng had slashed four times before she could break He Pingsheng's Jin Gang Talisman.

Theoretically speaking, this time, the Jin Gang Talisman should at least be able to withstand four strikes.

So he let the sword light fall, remaining indifferent, and instead reached out to take out another talisman: Heavenly Fire Talisman.

This thing was strengthened from the second-tier talisman 【Fierce Fire Talisman】.

He Pingsheng knew that it was impossible to slay Daoist Nun Feng with his own power.

Since that was the case, he could only waste two talismans.

"Open..."

He Pingsheng shouted again, and after one breath, the talisman in his hand turned into a fireball.

"Go..."

With a *whoosh*, the fireball flew out, heading toward Daoist Nun Feng.

Daoist Nun Feng wasn't stupid either; after seeing the fireball, she hurriedly flew away on her sword.

However, what she didn't expect was that this fireball could automatically track, and with a *bang*, it hit her in the back.

In an instant, the fierce fire burned.

In the infinite fierce fire, Daoist Nun Feng was instantly reduced to ashes! ===== CHAPTER 169 =====
