Chapter 288: Chapter 270 Wǔ Cǎi Self-Destruct

Soon after, Zhang Wu made his move. With a stretch of his hand, the magical treasure in front of him sprung into action, hurtling straight toward the two.

Zhang Yuan and Huang Qingling hastily controlled their flying swords to defend themselves.

However.

There was more to come.

At this moment, Lin Jing also made his move, pulling out three Five Thunder Talismans from his Storage Bag and throwing them all at once.

“Clang, clang…”

First came the sound of the magical treasures colliding, followed by the sound of Zhang Yuan and Huang Qingling’s magical treasures being thrown backward.

At this time, the Five Thunder Talismans also arrived in front of Zhang Wu.

“Explode!”

Lin Jing bellowed.

Immediately after, the Five Thunder Talismans exploded, turning into a sky filled with thunderous light.

Facing this sky of thunderous light,

Zhang Wu was neither hurried nor slow, slapping out with his palm, a huge yellow palm imprint appeared.

The newly-formed region of thunderous light was instantly turned into nothingness by this yellow palm imprint.

Zhang Wu’s gaze remained calm as he looked at Lin Jing and explained,

“Using Second Rank talismans against a Golden Core Cultivator has no significance. Even if you use Third Rank talismans, I can evade before you even activate them.”

“Your cultivation is too weak to pose any threat to me.”

Zhang Wu had remained calm from beginning to end, not letting even a hint of murderous intent leak out.

Despite this, Lin Jing and his companions didn’t dare to relax in the slightest.

After speaking, Zhang Wu looked at Lin Jing’s hand reaching toward the Storage Bag and said,

“And, I also know…”

“Right now, you are probably plotting to use the true slaying magical sword gifted to you by the old master to deal with me. You’ve been biding your time very smartly…”

“But it’s pointless…”

“The gap in strength between us is simply too vast, so vast that…”

“No matter what schemes or tricks you use, you won’t succeed.”

Having his thoughts exposed by Zhang Wu, Lin Jing’s eyebrows immediately furrowed.

Zhang Wu had known about the true slaying magical sword from the start and had been guarding against him the whole time.

After speaking, he turned to look at Zhang Yuan and Huang Qingling and said,

“Young Master Yuan, Miss Qingling…”

“I know that both of you still have other magical treasures on you, but they are of no use against me.”

“I suggest you just stay put and surrender peacefully, to avoid suffering at my hands.”

At this moment, the three who had been exposed gathered together, confronting Zhang Wu.

And on the other side, Zhang Wu still watched Lin Jing and the others calmly.

……

Just then, a scream rang out.

“Ah…!!!!”

“Zhang Chenfan!!!!”

The cry was extremely sorrowful and filled with uncontrollable rage.

Lin Jing, alongside the others including Zhang Wu, immediately turned their heads toward the direction the sound came from.

Hovering in midair, the Wu Cai Immortal was bound by numerous blood-red threads, unable to move.

The other ends of these blood-red threads were connected to the Zhang Family Patriarch.

And at this time, the Zhang Family Patriarch’s expression had become extremely terrifying, and the aura emanating from him was even more evil, like a world-ending demon.

Moreover, along the threads binding the Wu Cai Immortal, blood welled up and flowed along these threads, being ingested by the Zhang Family Patriarch.

This…

The Wu Cai Immortal had been defeated so quickly.

This was something none of them had anticipated.

“Ah…”

“This wonderful sensation!!!!”

“Indeed, my good younger brother, late-stage Golden Core cultivation, so incredibly pure.”

“I can feel it, just a little more…”

“Just a bit more, and I can break through to Golden Core Peak…”

The Zhang Family Patriarch greedily sucked away, letting out a satisfied moan in the process.

On the other hand, Wu Cai Immortal, controlled by the red threads, struggled fiercely but could never break free.

His cultivation, along with the essence blood within his body, was continuously absorbed by the Zhang Family Patriarch.

Wu Cai Immortal’s cultivation was visibly plummeting, and even his body was rapidly wasting away to the naked eye.

At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Wu Cai Immortal was completely drained and turned into a dried-up corpse.

Although Zhang Wu’s gaze was also directed skyward, his Divine Sense pressure remained firmly over Lin Jing and the other two.

Lin Jing and his companions, at this point, didn’t dare make any rash moves.

Just then, an unexpected change occurred…

In the sky, countless dazzling bursts of light suddenly erupted from Wu Cai Immortal, enveloping his whole being within.

Those red threads that bound him, under the reflection of the five-colored light, also snapped one after another.

In just a short moment, all the red threads had completely snapped.

However.

Seeing the red threads severed, the Zhang Family Patriarch didn’t panic at all, but instead spoke outright,

“Little brother, it’s no use, you’re no match for me, struggling is futile.”

No sooner had the Zhang Family Patriarch finished speaking,

than the dazzling light around Wu Cai Immortal transformed into a Five-Colored Aurora, which burst forth suddenly and attacked the Zhang Family Patriarch at great speed.

“Hmph!”

The Zhang Family Patriarch snorted coldly, as a surge of blood light intensified around him, and countless blood threads burst forth from his body.

They tangled with the Five-Colored Aurora that was coming towards him.

Looking again at Wu Cai Immortal…

As the dazzling light left his body, Wu Cai Immortal’s aura quite noticeably weakened.

However, his gaze remained resolute, staring steadfastly at the Zhang Family Patriarch.

“Zhang Chenfan, since you so desire my cultivation…”

“Then I’ll give it to you…”

No sooner had Wu Cai Immortal finished speaking than his momentum soared drastically, and countless spiritual energy gathered from the outside world and poured into Wu Cai Immortal’s body.

At the same time, Wu Cai Immortal’s body started to rapidly swell.

Seeing this, Zhang Wu’s face underwent a drastic change.

“Not good, he’s going to self-destruct…”

Up in the sky, the Zhang Family Patriarch also witnessed this scene.

He wanted to stop it, but he was hindered by the five-colored light and couldn’t free his hands to act.

“Xiao Wu, stop him…”

As the Zhang Family Patriarch was unable to intervene, he hurriedly called for Zhang Wu.

Actually, as soon as Zhang Wu had seen Wu Cai Immortal preparing to self-destruct, he had already made his move.

But would Wu Cai Immortal let him succeed?

No sooner had Zhang Wu made his move, than another Five-Colored Aurora charged towards him, blocking him in his tracks.

Seeing the situation unfolding, Lin Jing and his companions immediately sensed danger and quickly backed away.

If Wu Cai Immortal were to successfully self-destruct, being this close would leave them with no chance of survival.

……

All of this happened very rapidly.

The moment Zhang Wu was blocked, Wu Cai Immortal had already drawn all the nearby spiritual power into himself, and his own body swelled as violent energies rampaged within.

“Zhang Chenfan, go to hell…”

Before his words were finished, Wu Cai Immortal charged towards the Zhang Family Patriarch.

At this moment, the Zhang Family Patriarch, still entangled with the five-colored light, couldn’t evade,

and he could only watch in horror as Wu Cai Immortal rushed toward him.

“Wu Cai, you would go so far…”

However, the Zhang Family Patriarch couldn’t finish his sentence.

Wu Cai Immortal had already reached him, just as the Zhang Family Patriarch had finally broken free from the tangle of the Five-Colored Aurora…

And then.

“Boom!”

A tremendous explosion followed by blinding light illuminated the area as Wu Cai Immortal successfully self-destructed right beside the Zhang Family Patriarch.
