Chapter 967 - 967 213 Tormented to Death Added for Alliance Hierarch Xia Wei Yu
967: Chapter 213: Tormented to Death (Added for Alliance Hierarch Xia Wei Yu) 967: Chapter 213: Tormented to Death (Added for Alliance Hierarch Xia Wei Yu) Just as the Ragefire Army appeared in the sky, an ancient-looking sword, as if piercing through time and space, descended from an unknown place, suspended in the firmament.Facing the Ragefire Army.
This sword was about four feet long, with a hilt guard in the shape of an oval swirling pattern.
The blade was engraved with two Dao characters, signifying “Chen Du.”
The Sunken Capital Sword of the Diaohai Tower Master, Wei Xun!
Besides being the Tower Master of the Fishing Sea Tower and the Lord of the Zhen Hai Alliance, Wei Xun was also widely known by another title—True Lord of the Sinking City—because of this sword.
The Sunken Capital Sword against the Ragefire Army!
The Tower Master of the Sea Tower and the Great Qi’s God of War actually cast their gazes here simultaneously.
The standards of this duel on the End of the World Platform were so high, it was simply astonishing.
Who would dare to play any tricks now?
At this moment, Ji Shaoqing had already calmed down.
Because of what Gu Huaixin said—”Your death is as light as a feather, but the honor of the Fishing Sea Tower is as heavy as a mountain.”
Is the honor of the Fishing Sea Tower important?
Of course, it is important.
But if he died, that would mean nothing at all!
So, in fact, Gu Huaixin was telling him—don’t be afraid of death, your master will save you.
You have to uphold the honor of the Fishing Sea Tower and make your “death” as valuable as possible.
Then let me give the most spectacular duel… Ji Shaoqing thought to himself.
However, in the next moment, he heard the piercing and ruthless wail of the sword.
That sword light, cold as frost and snow, was once again rapidly approaching!
Imminent!
And his opponent’s swordsmanship, still so resolute.
Not even the presence of a True Man of the Age, nor the appearance of a True Monarch, showed any sign of shaking his resolve.
Will his hand never tremble?!
Ji Shaoqing instinctively released the Mind Water Spirit, habitually trying to escape through illusion.
As he executed the Dao Technique, he realized it was wrong—the opponent had the ability to see through illusions!
In his hurry, he wanted to perform the Dragon Draws Water again…
But it was already too late.
Jiang Wang accurately located his true body, a sword swept across, as if dividing heaven and earth, and an arm flew high into the air!
With his right hand now missing a finger, Ji Shaoqing hugged his severed arm wound, turning several somersaults in midair, putting distance between himself and Jiang Wang once more.
The intense pain fueled his rage.
Death was already close at hand.
But he didn’t need to fear death.
Because Gu Huaixin had already promised to save him.
“Come again!” he shouted loudly.
He wanted to show courage, demonstrate resilience.
In this moment between life and death, to show the strength of a prodigy!
A layer of water film clogged his wound, stopping the blood from flowing further.
He stepped through the air and, with one arm, cast Dao Techniques, actually charging back at Jiang Wang!
“Senior Brother Ji!”
The Fishing Sea Tower Disciples watching couldn’t help but shed tears.
Moved by Ji Shaoqing’s tenacity, they looked at Jiang Wang with eyes filled with hatred.
Gu Huaixin sighed softly in his heart.
Of course, he hoped that after realizing he had a way out, Ji Shaoqing would fight for his life and defeat Jiang Wang with a resolve to die.
Only then, this battle would not have been in vain.
But that young man named Jiang Wang had a terrifying talent for combat, giving no quarter, and had now secured the upper hand.
It was too late for Ji Shaoqing to think about fighting desperately to turn the tide of defeat.
“War God, sir!”
Gu Huaixin suddenly spun around, bowing to the brass knuckles in the sky: “It is only natural for a man to die once.
Zhu Bijing can die, so of course, Ji Shaoqing can also die.
A duel to the death requires no grudges or complaints.”
“However, now that Jiang Wang has killed him, the debt has been paid, the feud settled.
If Ji Shaoqing is later resurrected, it naturally has nothing to do with what has passed.
I’ve prepared the ritual platform for after the duel, not to influence the duel itself.
Please see clearly.”
He had long decided to leave a way out for Ji Shaoqing, sparing no expense in preparing materials and treasures to revive him after his death—this was within reason and didn’t violate the rules of the duel.
But with the Great Qi’s God of War’s Ragefire Army in attendance, he had to explain to prevent Jiang Mengxiong from thinking he had broken the rules.
The Sunken Capital Sword and the Ragefire Army brass knuckles faced each other from afar, seemingly unlikely to state any opinion.
“That is reasonable,” said a voice from within the brass knuckles.
Jiang Wuyou was furious!
When Jiang Wang died, it was for real, but Ji Shaoqing’s death potentially had a chance for resurrection.
What sort of farce was this life-and-death duel?
But the actions of Gu Huaixin were indeed outside of the rules.
And since Jiang Mengxiong had agreed, what reason did she have to disagree?
Apart from anger, there was nothing else she could do.
Outside of the End of the World Platform is outside of the End of the World Platform.
Atop the End of the World Platform, it was the End of the World Platform.
Jiang Wang wasn’t concerned with whatever was happening outside; he only knew that the duel was still ongoing.
Then he would continue to swing his sword!
Even Ji Shaoqing at his peak was no match for him, let alone now, heavily wounded and feeble, hoping to turn the tide with valiant bloodshed, was utterly impossible.
In terms of courage, when had Jiang Wang ever lost to anyone?
The sword surged with cold light, instantly coming and going.
This sword slashed across the belly, directly felling Ji Shaoqing to the ground.
While Jiang Wang stood in the air.
At this moment, high above, the Chendu Ancient Sword and the Army Overturning Knuckles faced each other from afar.
Outside the End of the World Platform, True Man of the Age Gu Huaixin had already set up a ritual altar, waiting only for Ji Shaoqing’s death, to immediately retrieve his soul and return his life.
A magnificent disciple from the Fishing Sea Tower laid on the ground like a dead dog, disheveled, covered with blood.
The left arm severed at the shoulder, one finger blown off the right hand, a deep sword wound in the chest and abdomen, bleeding incessantly.
The youth holding the sword hung in the air, his thin lips slightly pursed, his eyes firm and resolute.
He didn’t look at Ji Shaoqing but cast his gaze toward Gu Huaixin, who was gathering strength outside the platform, observing this True Man of the Age.
“How do you plan to save him?” he asked.
Gu Huaixin did not speak.
Even though this youngster named Jiang Wang had displayed a terrifying talent in this battle atop the End of the World Platform and possessed an incredibly vast future, at least for now, he still lacked the qualifications to converse with a True Man.
A senior elder from the Fishing Sea Tower amongst the audience couldn’t help but blurt out, “Too arrogant!
Daring to ask the True Man?
Has the victory of this battle made you lose your mind?
Don’t you know your own weight anymore!”
Although it seemed like a private judgment, his voice was not concealed and could clearly be heard by all.
Jiang Wang might have heard it, or perhaps he didn’t.
He had posed a question to Gu Huaixin, but he didn’t wait for an answer.
He fell.
Like a long spear plummeting from the sky.
Straight, sharp, fearless.
He “stabbed” beside the fallen Ji Shaoqing, the Longing reversed, thrusting a sword downwards!
This sword, directly penetrated Ji Shaoqing’s Five Mansions Sea and pierced through his Tongtian Palace, dissolving any possibility of his resistance.
Feeling the rapid loss of Path Origin and the swift ebbing of life.
At this threshold between life and death, Ji Shaoqing vaguely touched upon something.
In that collapsing Inner Mansion, within the fifth Inner Mansion, there indeed was something that the past him had overlooked.
Is it only in the true face of life and death that one has the chance to glimpse the gate of enlightenment?
He was ecstatic.
With his last bit of energy, he managed to squeeze out a smile at Jiang Wang, “You have won this battle.
Ji is inferior in skill and has no complaints in death.”
Dignified.
A dignified death in battle.
When the day comes to find you, will you be as dignified?
Or will you be unwilling, frightened, weeping tears?
he thought.
With such thoughts, he awaited death.
But he found that the ebbing of life had stopped.
He looked at Jiang Wang in confusion—Jiang Wang was channeling True Yuan, clumsily using healing Dao Technique, to carefully heal his wounds.
What are you doing!
He struggled to get up, but was firmly pushed back down to the ground with a casual press.
Jiang Wang had been very precise in his strike, damaging Ji Shaoqing’s cultivation, but not dealing any fatal injuries.
His healing Dao Technique was certainly subpar, but he had no major issues in stopping the bleeding.
In the presence of many cultivators, he tended to Ji Shaoqing’s wounds with the care of a dear friend, methodically and unhurriedly.
Then, he raised his head to speak to the True Man of the Age, “A few days ago, it was here that I heard a saying, ‘People are like lamps, life is like oil.'”
His demeanor was very proper, his voice polite.
But beneath the calmness of the deep sea churned endless rage.
He said, “I would very much like to know, when the lamp oil slowly runs dry, whether the lamp can be rekindled.”
Ji Shaoqing’s eyes widened in terror, and he immediately tried to bite his tongue to commit suicide, only for Jiang Wang to unhesitatingly slap him, shattering his teeth!
Jiang Wang withdrew his hand, considerately straightened Ji Shaoqing’s head, and made him lie down more neatly.
Then he sat down next to him, crossing his legs.
He was going to endure here atop the End of the World Platform for nine days and nine nights!
To slowly torture Ji Shaoqing to death.
Then he would see whether Gu Huaixin could still bring him back to life!
