Chapter 600: Chapter 20 Karma Fire Red Lotus

Boom bang bang!

With five explosions, the five Five Elements Avatars were shattered instantaneously.

Following the disappearance of all five avatars, Liu Qiang’s figure reemerged.

Hmm, he didn’t die? Xiao Jie was stunned for a moment, but was not too surprised. Given Liu Qiang’s resources and personality, it was quite normal for him to have protective items on hand.

Xiao Jie noticed that at this moment, Liu Qiang’s blood volume was exactly 100, it was clearly a Substitute Grassman!

This thing really is a life-saving artifact, too bad it’s so expensive, and it occupies a trinket slot, or else he would consider getting one himself.

But no matter, even if it could withstand this strike, so what? With only 100 points of blood volume, a comeback was no longer possible.

After landing, Xiao Jie immediately pursued, while Liu Qiang frantically dodged and fled, exclaiming in shock, "No, it’s impossible! How can you have such strong strength?"

"This is the Big Move you wanted, how about it, do you like it?"

Xiao Jie pressed on step by step, nearly chopping Liu Qiang down with a Sky Splitting Flash. Liu Qiang, terrified, did not dare to stop for a moment and fled desperately, despite Xiao Jie also only having a little over 100 blood volume. He simply had no courage left to counterattack, completely disheartened.

Xiao Jie wasn’t in a rush though — the passive effect of his Qi Healing Skill slowly recovered his health; within about ten seconds, his blood volume had already restored by nearly a hundred. The longer he could drag this out, the better for him.

Instead, he aimed to keep Liu Qiang pressured, to prevent him from regenerating health or stamina.

Liu Qiang activated all his movement techniques, yet he was still unable to escape Xiao Jie’s relentless pursuit.

The key issue was his proud ultimate move, "Five Elements Clone Technique," had been broken by Xiao Jie in just two strokes, completely shattering his confidence.

Doubts filled his mind continuously, how is this possible, impossible, how could I lose?

Sitting in front of his computer, Liu Qiang muttered to himself. After playing Old Soil for so long, cultivating such powerful skills and supreme spells, even possessing magic treasures, how could he lose to a newcomer who had only played for a few months?

Dammit! A thought flashed in his mind, but the next second, he noticed Xiao Jie’s blood volume had already recovered to nearly 300.

Impossible! Better to run! As long as he could disengage and log out, wait for Zhao Qingyun to win on the frontlines, what would an Xiao Jie count for then!

Though he’d lost thirty years of his lifespan, as long as he was alive, there was a possibility of recovering it later, worst case he could learn a cultivation technique for nurturing health and possibly extend his lifespan by a few years.

Thinking this way, Liu Qiang’s last bit of fighting spirit completely dissipated.

Earth Escape — Earth Walking Technique!

Xiao Jie was chasing when suddenly he saw Liu Qiang dive into the ground like a groundhog, vanishing into the soil in an instant.

Thinking of escaping!

Xiao Jie wouldn’t let him get away. While activating Qi Healing Skill to regain health, he used his Qi Observation Skill to lock onto his target’s location, immediately spotting a vague white shadow emerging on the ground, which swiftly passed through a burning building and headed towards the outskirts of the city.

He felt a pang of regret; it’s a pity his Merit Points were insufficient, otherwise casting a Heavenly Tribulation Technique to ensure Liu Qiang couldn’t log out would have secured his victory.

But at that moment, there was no time for such thoughts, and he had to give his all to keep up.

Fortunately, the Earth Walking Technique wasn’t very fast, totally inferior to the effects of the Qinggong; it was just good for remaining undetected underground, but before Xiao Jie’s Qi Observation Skill, it was clearly visible.

It seemed Liu Qiang still had some tricks; after moving a distance towards the outskirts, he suddenly turned into a nearby inn.

Without hesitation, Xiao Jie directly leaped through the inn’s window, following the white shadow which took another turn into the courtyard, and tracked it again.

Then he saw the white shadow burst forth from the ground, revealing Liu Qiang’s true form.

So it turned out that although Earth Walking Technique had no time limit, like diving, it involved a breathing meter; once the breathing meter depleted, it would drain health, and Liu Qiang couldn’t stay underground indefinitely.

He originally wanted to emerge from the grand hall of the inn, where the shelter of the building would make it hard for his enemy to spot his emergence point.

Unfortunately, the inn’s floors were wooden, making it impossible to surface, forcing him to appear in the courtyard instead.

However, in Liu Qiang’s view, having moved so far underground, and surfacing within an inn enclosed by courtyard walls, he thought Xiao Jie, no matter how keen his eyesight, wouldn’t be able to spot him.

He fully believed that his opponent could not judge his direction of escape, unaware that Xiao Jie had perfectly observed everything.

Just as he emerged, Xiao Jie landed directly before him.

"Holy shit, how the hell..." Liu Qiang didn’t finish his sentence, as Xiao Jie, using his sword as a cleaver, struck him head-on.

"Die!"

One Cut, Two Pieces!

Splat! -68!

Despite the strike, Liu Qiang wasn’t dead yet. After all, the Xuanming sword was a sword, and its chopping damage was limited. Xiao Jie immediately followed up with a Changing Move — Wind Sweep Leaf.

Liu Qiang’s soul teeming, his reflexes were extremely quick, immediately executing an extreme body movement skill — Divine Step!

Xiao Jie’s sword cut through air, following with the Meteor Soul Chasing Dart!

Snap! -47!

This time, Liu Qiang couldn’t dodge, but he still miraculously survived with a flash of white light — 1 drop of blood!

Heavenly King Life-saving Pill! Xiao Jie understood instantly, yet his pursuit did not falter for a moment.

"Today, you must die; no amount of life-saving items can save you!" Xiao Jie said coldly as he closed in again.

At this moment, Liu Qiang was utterly desperate. Not only could he not defeat his opponent, but even his proudest skill of escaping was completely countered.

In hysteria, twisted hatred surged again, "Die! Damn it, let’s die together!"

With resolve, his hands abruptly came together to form a magic seal.

Secret technique—Karma Fire Burning Body to Red Lotus!

Instantly, intense red flames erupted from Liu Qiang’s body, wrapping him up like a giant red bud, which quickly turned from red to blazing white, akin to a ready-to-explode nuclear bomb.

Xiao Jie was shocked; he had only recovered about half his health during the chase, totaling just over four hundred, and he feared the power of this attack was a bit too much; if it really hit him, he might not be able to withstand it.

Lying Tiger Stone Form, or—

The bud suddenly burst open, transforming into numerous Karma Fire Red Lotuses. Not daring to bet on the defensive power of Lying Tiger Stone Form, Xiao Jie immediately activated his ultimate life-saving technique.

Secret technique—Illusion Shattering Bubble Shadow!

Boom, the Red Lotus blossomed, and in an instant, the flames devoured everything within a ten-meter radius. Standing in the time-stopped space created by Illusion Shattering Bubble Shadow, Xiao Jie saw the flames engulf everything up to ten steps away before freezing mid-air, like a still frame inside a nuclear explosion.

Three seconds later, Xiao Jie charged out of the time-stop zone with his Flying Cloud Chasing Moon technique, and from above, the entire inn’s courtyard had already turned into a sea of fire.

Every flower and tree was flattened in the explosion. Astonished, Xiao Jie marveled at Liu Qiang’s grand display in his final moments.

However, amidst the flames lay all the equipment, gold coins, and items that Liu Qiang had dropped.

Seeing this, Xiao Jie felt a weight lifted off his shoulders; it seemed this guy was finally dead.

Then, he glanced at the glittering drops on the ground, thinking that Liu Qiang really had a lot of resources.

Xiao Jie glided through the air for a few seconds using the Yan Hang effect until the explosion had completely subsided before slowly descending.

The surrounding flames continued to burn, but such environmental damage was no longer a threat to him.

Without hesitation, he began frantically collecting items. Liu Qiang’s resources were indeed vast. The ground shimmered with about five or six purple glows, and countless blue and green items, suddenly, an equipment emitting orange text caught his eye.

Eh, there’s actually Orange Equipment? Xiao Jie was shocked.

Although the Supreme Divine Skill was also of orange quality, this was his first time seeing orange-quality equipment. But then he thought, with the backing of a powerful guild like the Azure Dragon Association, it wasn’t too surprising.

He didn’t bother to examine it closely and scooped everything into his bag.

The more he collected, the more excited he became—equipments, elixirs, talismans...there were even Magic Artifacts.

Both shocked and delighted, Xiao Jie was grateful for his relentless pursuit; otherwise, if Liu Qiang had a chance to catch his breath, he might have been able to recover and counterattack. Indeed, Liu Qiang had amassed great wealth, all of which now benefitted Xiao Jie.

Liu Qiang, Liu Qiang, you harmed my brother, almost killed me, and now these treasures you dropped are a little psychological compensation for me.

In the blink of an eye, most of the drops were collected; there were still plenty of low-level meds, talismans, and even green equipment scattered around, but Xiao Jie couldn’t be bothered to pick them up—his teammates were still fighting outside.

He must hurry to assist them.

The remainder would be left for some fateful person.

He leaped and sped toward the previous battlefield, leaping and bounding across the rooftops while asking in YY: "I’ve dealt with Liu Qiang, how are you guys doing?"

Xia Yi the Unrivaled spoke with a slight smugness: "Don’t worry, Brother Sui Feng, we can completely hold our ground here!"

With these words, Xiao Jie saw from afar a giant Sword Qi formed in the sky, aimed at the Rock Giant below.

It was Xia Yi the Unrivaled using his ultimate!

Secret technique—Pride Nine Layers Divine Sword!

Boom! The giant Sword Qi pierced through the Rock Giant, forcing it back into human form, and its blood volume immediately bottomed out.

The Five Elements Mage attempted to escape by throwing a talisman, but Ye Luo instantly closed in behind him, delivering a series of backstabbing strikes that killed him and again caused a wave of equipment and items to burst onto the ground.

With their leader dead and the Five Elements Mage down, the remaining three ran for their lives, but how could they escape now? The Xuan Tie Guard was not known for Qinggong; although he fought while fleeing, he still couldn’t shake off An Ran’s pursuit.

"Do you need help?" Xiao Jie had already arrived and asked An Ran.

"No need!" An Ran roared, using his Combat Skill—Bear Hug!

He grabbed the Xuan Tie Guard in his arms, squeezed tightly, and then furiously threw him away.

Then immediately began charging.

Ox Demon Split Earth Wave—Shake the Earth!

Just as the Xuan Tie Guard was getting up, An Ran smashed down from above.

Boom, boom, boom! The shockwave spread all around, and at the shock’s epicenter, the Xuan Tie Guard finally succumbed to the overwhelming damage, his blood volume bottomed out, and his equipment burst all over the ground.
