Chapter 1552: Chapter 1549: Wu Jun Rescues His Wife

This man is Wu Jun. Wu Jun has broken through to the early stage of Extreme Dao. Although he still can’t defeat Kuang Chenggong, the gap between them isn’t that large since they both have Extreme Dao strength.

It’s like comparing an early stage Celestial Dao Seven-Star expert to a peak Celestial Dao Seven-Star expert. There is a gap, but it’s not as significant as the gap between Celestial Dao Seven-Star Great Perfection and the early stage of Extreme Dao. After all, once you step over that threshold, the difference is just a matter of inner strength and cultivation technique.

Obviously, Kuang Chenggong can sense that Wu Jun’s strength is formidable, making it impossible to defeat Wu Jun with a single move. But by exhausting him little by little, the difference in their abilities will become apparent.

As for why Wu Jun wants to rescue Wang Xue, the reason is simple: because he overheard that Xue’Er is the wife of his friend, Hao Shuai. If he doesn’t save his friend’s wife, then who will he save?

"I didn’t expect you, Wu Jun, to break through to Extreme Dao as well. Not bad at all," Kuang Chenggong taunted with a cold smile.

"Hmph, I also didn’t expect you to break through to the peak of the early stage of Extreme Dao. It looks like you put in a lot of effort," Wu Jun naturally didn’t know these two levels could be achieved by stacking Golden Cores.

"That’s right, my strength is higher than yours. So sensibly leave, as I have no deep hatred towards you, and I can let you go," Kuang Chenggong wasn’t sure he could directly eliminate Wu Jun, and he had more important things to do.

If he got tangled up with Wu Jun, not only would it delay him, but if he accidentally got injured, confronting Chen Tianlong later would give him the upper hand.

Although Chen Tianlong is only at the early stage of Extreme Dao, this kid never follows the rules. If he comes up with another Powerful Qi Bomb, then it’s nonsense.

Thus, when dealing with Chen Tianlong, Kuang Chenggong does have some concerns and isn’t as indiscriminate. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought so many troops along; he would have just charged into the Kunlun Sect and wiped out Chen Tianlong straightaway.

But he knows it won’t be that smooth. As long as he uses the army to besiege him, even if Chen Tianlong has three heads and six arms, after battling with him, he definitely won’t escape the encirclement.

"Haha, Kuang Chenggong, you’re hilarious. This woman here is a brother’s wife. How can I watch helplessly as you try to kill her? Do you think I’m a fool?" Wu Jun laughed.

"Hmph, I’ve given you enough face, but you refused it, so don’t blame me for being rude," Kuang Chenggong said, unleashing Divine Fist with a glowing blaze, preparing to gather strength for the battle.

At this moment, Wu Jun didn’t hesitate, leaping backward several meters, then settling into a stable stance and drawing his long sword. The Heart-Burning Divine Skill isn’t just for show; the seventh layer’s Heaven and Earth Shattering Slash, catalyzed by Extreme Dao strength, is boundless in power.

Wu Guangzu saw the situation and felt it was not safe to leave Xue’Er here, not caring about the other two he deemed as demons.

One is a person who used to be an enemy of Chen Tianlong, and the other is a bastard who killed his master, Fang Yan. Wu Guangzu couldn’t care less about their life or death.

So, Wu Guangzu put Shi Wenlong down, swiftly moved beside Xue’Er, and before she could react, he grabbed her and headed up the mountain, reaching Shi Wenlong, helped him up, and started to climb.

Kuang Chenggong had no choice at that moment, as the troops he had brought were tens of meters away in the battle area. Now they were blocking the road, not daring to seize the opportunity to capture anyone, unless they didn’t care for their own lives. When an Extreme Dao expert is preparing for battle, no matter how many come, they’re just cannon fodder.

Thus, those troops could only watch helplessly as Wu Guangzu took the two injured and fled up the mountain.

Slowly, Wu Guangzu disappeared from everyone’s view. At this point, Kuang Chenggong started his attack as he needed to quickly defeat Wu Jun and then ascend the mountain to attack the Kunlun Sect and eliminate Chen Tianlong.

Otherwise, once Wu Guangzu reports to the top where they prepare for defense, attacking would be much more difficult.

"Ah... Wu Jun, you ruined my plan, go die!"

Kuang Chenggong unleashed the seventh layer of Phantom Divine Fist, pouring all his strength into the attack. In an instant, a powerful fist wind surged towards Wu Jun like a storm.

Wu Jun didn’t stand still awaiting the hit. Instead, he immediately flew up and gripped his long sword tightly, swinging it forcefully while shouting, "Heaven and Earth Shattering Slash!"

The Heart-Burning Divine Skill finally began to show its power at this moment, and suddenly the surrounding atmosphere turned dark as night. Most significantly, with this move, an evil demonic qi mixed with intense Dark Attribute Attack rushed towards Kuang Chenggong.

At this moment, Kuang Chenggong could perceive the strong energy, yet he smirked coldly, because aside from his strong attack power, he had one ultimate life-saving technique—it was the Golden Bell Divine Skill.

Hence, after executing the seventh layer of Phantom Divine Fist, he quickly employed the Golden Bell Divine Skill, forming a thick protective layer around him specifically to resist non-primary attacks like demonic qi invasion and Dark Attribute Attack.

"Boom..."

The two forces collided, plunging into darkness. Dust flew and rocks crumbled, the earth trembled and the mountains shook, terrifyingly so. The three hundred soldiers on the side were frightened at the sight of such a battle scene, thankful they didn’t rush to attack; otherwise, they would have become dust.

After the dust settled, Wu Jun was seen with a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth, clearly injured.

It’s not surprising; there was a difference in their strengths, and earlier it was a close combat where both exerted their full power. Kuang Chenggong utilized the Golden Bell Divine Skill, blocking Wu Jun’s other attacks, while the main attack didn’t significantly harm him.

Therefore, Wu Jun was injured, while Kuang Chenggong was unharmed.

At this moment, Hao Shuai knew that if this continued, exhausting his strength, he would eventually be defeated by Kuang Chenggong, especially with three hundred troops waiting nearby. Although their strength wasn’t formidable, the sheer number made the situation disadvantageous.

With these thoughts, Wu Jun leaped up; Flying in the Sky was already familiar to Extreme Dao experts, so he directly leapt up and flew towards the mountain.

He definitely couldn’t fly back; there were thirty thousand troops at the mountain’s base. Although his strength was formidable, dealing with such numbers was challenging.

If countless arrows were shot at him, it would be a major problem.

"Darn it, running away when you can’t win, what a coward."

Kuang Chenggong watched Wu Jun turn and flee, feeling very angry, but unable to do anything. Although his strength surpassed Wu Jun’s, they both had just learned Flying in the Sky, which was still at a beginner level, so their speeds weren’t vastly different. Thus, chasing like this wouldn’t affect Wu Jun.

Since the plan was exposed, Kuang Chenggong no longer kept it secret and signaled his men to launch the flare, indicating the army to start ascending the mountain.

After doing all this, Kuang Chenggong led the three hundred soldiers in a massive advance to chase up the mountain.
