Before Qi Tian finished speaking, a gust of wind rushed out of the courtyard. Zhang Weimeng had noticed when Qi Tian had just broken the first point of his Defensive Barrier, but at that moment, Zhang Weimeng was at a critical point in his cultivation and made no move. He also harbored a hope that Qi Tian had found the first point of the formation due to luck, not genuine skill. However, when it dawned on Zhang Weimeng that Qi Tian must have mastered a unique technique or was very familiar with his Defensive Barrier, it was already too late. Qi Tian had broken three points in quick succession, leaving only the last one. Now, there was no point worrying about whether the last formation point could be preserved. So, Zhang Weimeng decided to go along with Qi Tian’s plan, letting him break the last point. Then, when Qi Tian was most complacent, believing himself to be unbeatable and letting down his guard, Zhang Weimeng would suddenly strike, guaranteeing a big surprise.
Zhang Weimeng had planned well, but Qi Tian did not dare relax for even a moment. Moreover, Qi Tian had started the Spirit Qi sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine, which constantly monitored Zhang Weimeng’s position. Under the vision provided by the Heavenly Dao Engine, no matter where Zhang Weimeng hid, he could not escape Qi Tian’s surveillance, making it impossible to launch a sudden attack on him.
As Zhang Weimeng launched his attack, Qi Tian swiftly receded, while also loudly issuing directives: “Follow my command, attack together.”
At this moment, Gao Jinmei, Jin Jin, and Wang Youjun, the three Gold Core Realm powerhouses, took action together, throwing their Gold Core Thunder Talismans given by Qi Tian. Suddenly, three fierce thunderbolts that could pierce the heavens burst into the sky. They were like three long spears, piercing downwards from the sky, aiming directly at Zhang Weimeng on the ground.
Zhang Weimeng was indeed exceptional. His figure flashed, displaying a remarkable speed. He managed to dodge the coordinated kill strategy composed of three Gold Core Thunder Talismans, but at the moment when Zhang Weimeng thought he had dodged the assault, Qi Tian swung his hand and unleashed the fourth Gold Core Thunder Talisman. The newly formed thunderbolt tore through the sky and was aimed straight at Zhang Weimeng.
Qi Tian had already calculated all the possible angles of Zhang Weimeng’s evasion attempts. Zhang Weimeng’s evasive maneuvers landed him exactly where Qi Tian had predicted. Hence, the last Gold Core Thunder Talisman had an excellent effect, as the bolt struck Zhang Weimeng directly.
The attack unleashed by the Gold Core Thunder Talisman equated to a full-strength strike from a cultivator at the Gold Core Realm Fourth Level. Zhang Weimeng, being a powerhouse of the same cultivation level, would need a long time to prepare to launch a similarly powerful attack. Moreover, such a technique extremely drains True Essence and spirit. Getting hit by it directly instantaneously caused numerous runes to surface on the surface of his cloak – the Defensive Runes stitched into the fabric of his robe were activated to defend him from the descending Thunderbolt.
With a “boom” sound, Zhang Weimeng’s cloak was blasted to shreds. This was the moment Qi Tian was waiting for; he made his move and attacked Zhang Weimeng.
Zhang Weimeng was in great anger. Before he had a chance to confront Qi Tian directly, Qi Tian had successively destroyed his Defensive Barrier and cloak. Zhang Weimeng hadn’t suffered so much ever since he embarked on the path of cultivation.
Zhang Weimeng wanted to retaliate by thrusting his spear towards Qi Tian. The spear was incredibly powerful, as if it could pierce a hole in the universe.
Qi Tian sneered, and on his command, the Linked-Chain Armor he was wearing sprung to action. Several pieces of the armor overlaid on his front formed a thick defense, right where the spear was pointed.
Popping sounds resonated as the spear penetrated two layers of armor plates and then could move no more. Zhang Weimeng’s spear, although not of superior quality, is still a formidable weapon. Just because Zhang Weimeng was a more advanced cultivator didn’t mean he was wealthier than Wu Shenglian. If Zhang Weimeng were truly affluent, this reputable Gold Core Realm Fourth Level cultivator wouldn’t have stooped to robbing mortals of their wealth. Five million taels of silver were equivalent to just five middle-grade spirit stones. Yet, he tried to rob them, indicating how poor he was. This forced Zhang Weimeng to manage his resources frugally, as evidenced by the spear he was wielding, which he had procured after much effort when he was at the Gold Core Realm First Level.
It’s a common norm for cultivators, especially those at the Gold Core Realm, to frequently replace their war weapons and armors. Wu Shenglian, for example, replaced her set of gear when reaching the Gold Core Realm Second Level, and again after reaching the Gold Core Realm Third Level. As a cultivator’s cultivation level increases, so does their strength, and therefore, they need to replace their weapons and armors accordingly. Otherwise, their gear wouldn’t be able to keep up with their increased needs.
However, Zhang Weimeng was not as fortunate as Wu Shenglian. His spear, usable at the Gold Core Realm First Level, was still in use even after reaching the Gold Core Realm Fourth Level. Additionally, it was being used to combat Qi Tian. Given Qi Tian’s skill before his trip to Wanjie City, Zhang Weimeng’s current capabilities would’ve been sufficient to kill him instantly. But things were different now. The Linked-Chain Armor purchased with millions of low-grade spirit stones had successfully blocked Zhang Weimeng’s spear.
