Chapter 2271 - 2244: You Can’t Kill Me

"Fenghuo Spear Technique—Rapid Invasion!"

Facing Tang Fengyun’s aggressive attack, Jiang Liufeng remained calm, showing no fear at all. With a grasp of his arm, a long spear appeared in his hand once more, and the Fenghuo Spear Technique was performed again. The spearhead rotated violently, and as it continuously rubbed against the air, flames burst forth, like a massive flaming drill, twisting its way forward.

"It’s useless, Jiang Liufeng. Everything you’re doing is just like an ant trying to stop a chariot. It’s useless."

Tang Fengyun laughed heartily. In his eyes, Jiang Liufeng’s actions were utterly reckless. Even though Jiang Liufeng used to be at the Late Stage of Mythical, he was now only at the Early-stage Mythical, which was an insurmountable gulf.

"Crash!"

Just as Tang Fengyun let out his arrogant laughter, the spear and the True Qi Long Whip collided heavily. They stalemated for a moment, not as Tang Fengyun expected, where the True Qi Long Whip would shatter the spear. Instead, the drill-like spearhead tore the True Qi Long Whip to pieces.

"What, this is impossible."

Tang Fengyun’s eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. His attack was actually blocked by Jiang Liufeng. An attack from a Late Stage of Mythical was stopped by someone at the Early-stage Mythical, how could this be possible? Even in a dream, nothing could be so outrageous.

Each level of cultivation is like a new heaven and earth; this was a gap of two levels. No matter how incredible, it shouldn’t be possible.

"Nothing is impossible. Did you really think my grandfather talked so much nonsense with you because he was bored? Let me tell you, ever since you stepped into my grandfather’s bedroom, you were already poisoned. I just didn’t expect that the poison on you would only truly take effect now. It seems my poison needs more refinement; otherwise, if you intended to run, there really would’ve been nothing we could do to you."

And just as Tang Fengyun was full of doubts, a mocking voice came from behind Jiang Liufeng.

Mandala looked at Tang Fengyun, her face unable to hide a cold sneer. Although the poison in Tang Fengyun took a bit longer to take effect than she had anticipated, it was still within her expectations. Tang Fengyun was beginning to lose strength.

After hearing Mandala’s words, Tang Fengyun’s face became extremely grim, and without any hesitation, he immediately circulated his True Qi throughout his body.

The circulation of True Qi caused Tang Fengyun’s expression to become extremely unpleasant. As a martial artist at the Late Stage of Mythical, he had mastered a subtle control over his True Qi. At the moment he circulated his True Qi, he immediately felt it rapidly diminishing at a visible rate. An invisible force was continuously devouring his True Qi. If this continued, Tang Fengyun felt it wouldn’t take long for him to become an ordinary person, at anyone’s mercy.

"Impossible, this is impossible. When I entered the Bai Family Ancestral House, I had already taken the special Detoxification Pills prepared by the Tang Family, which are far superior to the ones those chess pieces took. How could I be poisoned?"

Tang Fengyun’s eyes flickered with an uncertain light. He had taken the Detoxification Pills, not the rubbish provided to those men, but the secret Detoxification Pills of the Tang Family, capable of resisting even the most terrifying toxins of the Tang Family. How could he be so easily poisoned?

"Well, did you feel it?"

Realizing the drastic change in Tang Fengyun’s expression, Mandala seemed to know his thoughts and said, "Aren’t you very curious why you’re still poisoned despite having taken the Detoxification Pill?"

"Actually, the principle is simple. This is not just a poison, but also a tonic. Although it can temporarily deprive you of combat power, at the same time, as your True Qi continuously disappears, it will be refined again. So your Detoxification Pill is useless. However, unfortunately, you might not live to see that moment because tonight, you are undoubtedly going to die."

Mandala’s words fell, and she directly addressed Jiang Liufeng, "Grandfather, you can make your move now. The poison in him has already taken effect. These poisons will remain in his body, continuously devouring his True Qi until he becomes an ordinary person, but it won’t last long. In about ten minutes, his True Qi will gradually recover. Grandfather, you only have ten minutes."

"Ten minutes, Manman, you’re underestimating your grandfather. Today, I’ll show you why your grandfather is called the Northern Spear."

Upon hearing Mandala’s remark, Jiang Liufeng laughed heartily, his arm shaking the long spear, transforming into a multitude of spear shadows, enveloping Tang Fengyun.

"Damn it!"

When at the Late Stage of Mythical, Tang Fengyun may not have found Jiang Liufeng’s attack overwhelmingly terrifying, but now, with his strength dripping away due to the poison, he realized just how frightening Jiang Liufeng was. He also understood why Jiang Liufeng could become a top expert on par with Old Sir Lu. Almost the moment Jiang Liufeng executed the Fenghuo Spear Technique, Tang Fengyun felt the space filled with densely packed spear shadows.

Every spear shadow carried a penetrating power capable of piercing through the void. If a spear shadow struck him, even if he miraculously survived, he might still be severely injured.

"You can’t kill me. Even though my True Qi is disappearing, it’s enough to kill you."

Tang Fengyun roared, desperately driving the remaining True Qi in his body. The violent True Qi spiraled above Tang Fengyun’s head, suddenly transforming into a Fierce Tiger. It howled at the sky, sending waves crashing towards the spear shadows, shattering the dense array of spear shadows in one move, breaking Jiang Liufeng’s technique.

"It’s useless. Even if my strength is diminished, it just takes a breath to suppress you."

Tang Fengyun’s face flashed with a hideous smile. "Jiang Liufeng, I will now send you on your way."

With those words, Tang Fengyun’s True Qi roared wildly, directly enveloping Jiang Liufeng. Amidst the surging True Qi, it transformed into countless fierce beasts rushing out, opening their massive jaws with the intention of ripping Jiang Liufeng to pieces.

"Fenghuo Spear Technique—Thunderous Movement."

Seeing Tang Fengyun’s aggressive assault, Jiang Liufeng turned a blind eye, neither dodging nor evading. Instead, with a movement of his body, he stepped directly forward and executed the Fenghuo Spear Technique once more.

"Boom!"

A single spear thrust was like a thunderclap exploding out of nowhere. This thrust transformed into lightning, piercing through the void in an instant. Its speed reached the extreme, giving Tang Fengyun almost no time to catch his breath—this spear was already upon him.
