Chapter 399 War

Realizing he had misunderstood, Hu Sheng coughed and said, "That's not difficult, but what are you going to do? Let me remind you, there weren't any particularly terrifying opponents in the Nascent Soul stage of the lower realm cultivators before, but Ji Wantang has also advanced to the Nascent Soul stage. She's someone who can kill anyone."

Lin Zhao touched his nose and, seeing Hu Sheng's expression, dared not say that he was going to fight Ji Wantang. He said, "I just have something to take care of."

Hu Sheng sighed, glanced at Lin Zhao with a look that said, "You can't persuade a damned ghost with good advice," and said helplessly, "Come with me."

Lin Zhao was led by Hu Sheng to a border crossing. As Hu Sheng handed a packet of soul coins to the old man in charge of the border crossing and was about to lead her in that direction, Lin Zhao asked, "Miss Hu Sheng, are you going too?"

Hu Sheng took out the Heavenly Mirror from his bosom and said helplessly, "I've communicated with the Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the clan, and they said they have to take care of Little Ancestor, so they can't come to help me for the time being. I plan to follow you. I feel it will be safer with you."

Lin Zhao: "..." Maybe I should just tell them that I'm going to find Ji Wantang.

"It's not safe for you to follow me." Lin Zhao stopped Hu Sheng, who was about to head towards the area where cultivators from the lower realm were active. "I'm going to find someone to fight."

Hu Sheng waved his hand: "What are you afraid of with your strength? As long as you don't go looking for Ji Wantang and get yourself killed, you'll be fine following you."

Lin Zhao looked at her expressionlessly.

Seeing Lin Zhao's expression, Hu Sheng's thoughts changed instantly, and she asked, almost in tears, "Don't tell me you're planning to go find Ji Wantang?!"

Isn't living good enough? Why go looking for death?
Among the cultivators of the Upper Realm, Ji Wantang has killed at least several thousand, if not tens of thousands. How could Zhao Ling'er be so foolish?

Hu Sheng advised, "I know you come from the lower realm and have a competitive mentality towards Ji Wantang, who is also a woman from the lower realm, but we don't need to risk our lives over such a small matter."

After saying that, Hu Sheng added, "Moreover, Ji Wantang herself said that she came to wait for someone named Lin Zhao to come and find her."

Lin Zhao was silent for a moment, then removed her disguise: "Well, I am Lin Zhao."

Fox Sheng: "!!!"

When she saw Lin Zhao's face and thought of his words, her mind went blank.

After a long while, she clenched her fist and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you."

Lin Zhao didn't understand: "Aren't you scared?"

Fox Sheng said, "If you die, I will find a way to notify your relatives and friends in the lower realm to help you collect your body."

Lin Zhao: "..." Thank you so much.

However, since Hu Sheng insisted on coming with him, Lin Zhao did not refuse: "Don't worry, I won't die, and you will be fine too."

Listening to Lin Zhao's words, Hu Sheng took back his Qiankun bag from the old man at the border and smiled wryly: "You really have confidence."

Seeing this, Lin Zhao didn't say anything. Seeing the familiar scenery around her, she sensed that familiar aura, so she flew up on her sword and chased after that aura.

The other party clearly sensed her presence as well. A streak of blood-red light suddenly rose on the horizon, breaking through the white light of the entire Divine Soul World and soaring straight up into the heavens and earth.

The next instant, Lin Zhao had already reached out and met Ji Wantang's punch.

With a punch and a palm strike, in their first exchange, Lin Zhao felt a tearing pain coming from his palm.

Ji Wantang withdrew her hand expressionlessly, looked at the dent on her fist, and twisted her wrist.

"Lin Zhao, it's been a long time since we've had someone our age who could withstand a punch from me." Ji Wantang's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light, and her red lips slowly curved upwards.

Lin Zhao thought to herself, "If I weren't used to the pain, I really wouldn't have been able to take that punch."

"Let's go to the dueling arena." Lin Zhao withdrew his fist, feeling that the space of this divine soul world was somewhat shattered due to the clash of their fists and palms, and made the request.

Ji Wantang knew exactly what Lin Zhao was thinking, and scoffed, "Looking back and forth, that's womanly sentimentality. Lin Zhao, back then you had your Phoenix Luck stolen, but now everything you have will be mine."

Lin Zhao slowly frowned, his eyes narrowing. A sword aura appeared unexpectedly, grazing Ji Wantang's cheek.

At this moment, a hint of surprise finally appeared in Ji Wantang's eyes.

She wiped her wounds, her bloodshot eyes gradually hardening with murderous intent.

"Lin Zhao, you're really courting death."

A blood-red slender sword materialized before Lin Zhao, aiming to pierce towards his heart.

The Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword automatically protected her. Lin Zhao's figure flashed, and she activated the Mysterious Shadow Movement. Ji Wantang sneered, and light rippled beneath her feet. She actually used the shadow left by Lin Zhao's Mysterious Shadow Movement to catch up with her directly.

The tips of the crimson rapier and the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword clashed. Lin Zhao's phoenix wings unfurled behind him, and with another movement, he arrived at the safest battle platform nearby. After throwing a bag of Divine Soul Coins at the staff, he said, "Activate the strongest defense until one of us leaves the battle platform, then remove the defense."

The staff received the hundreds of thousands of Divine Soul Coins, but before they could even rejoice, they felt a terrifying aura pressing down on them.

That was the indiscriminate crushing pressure of a Nascent Soul stage expert.

Lin Zhao's phoenix wings fluttered, and she threw a punch at Ji Wantang.

"Ji Wantang, there are some things I've wanted to say to you for a long time. Not every battle has to be fought like this. But if you want to fight like this, I'm ready!"

Ji Wantang grabbed Lin Zhao's wrist, but the next moment Lin Zhao's knee struck her in the abdomen, and Lin Zhao kicked her down onto the platform.

Ji Wantang fell into the battle, and Lin Zhao followed closely behind. The next moment, she activated the defensive formation around the battle platform.

Ji Wantang slowly stood up from the platform. The blood-red rapier disappeared from her palm, and then thousands of blood-red rapiers slowly emerged around Ji Wantang.

Lin Zhao gasped for breath, sensing the strong stench of blood in the air, and vaguely felt that she had fallen into Ji Wantang's spiritual technique.

Her move just now, seemingly kicking Ji Wantang here and gaining the upper hand, was actually a physical collision she forcibly brought together despite the influence of Ji Wantang's spiritual technique.

Her spirit body is now somewhat dim.

Ji Wantang stood up, one eye still bloodshot, the other eye now a silver vortex.

"Lin Zhao, every step I take is a path you have never walked before, but I will tell you that in every battle, I, Ji Wantang, will fight however I want."

The blood-red slender swords flickered erratically, but at the same time they all converged and pressed towards Lin Zhao.

With a flick of his Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, Lin Zhao formed the Heavenly Phoenix Sword Formation, and the sword formations clashed.

The two of them simultaneously sensed each other's spiritual depth.

One hundred and fifty million.

Yes, their spiritual foundations are completely identical.

If it were a past opponent with similar spiritual foundation, Lin Zhao might have breathed a sigh of relief.

But this is Ji Wantang.

Because the cultivation technique Lin Zhao was practicing was of a lower grade than Ji Wantang's, Lin Zhao would be at a disadvantage given the identical spiritual energy foundation.

"Then let's give it a try."

Light flashed beneath Lin Zhao's feet, and the Heavenly Phoenix King's Formation took shape around him, subtly resisting Ji Wantang's domain-type spiritual skill.

I sat in the office all day in the cold air and caught a slight fever. I'll update more tomorrow.
