Chapter 297: Don't you want to avenge Marquis Xia Wu?
Armor-Piercing Seven-Spinning Finger.
With the information from Han Yun City, the positive and negative Qi Force enhanced through the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation nearly maximized Xu Lingjun's True Qi lethality.
Especially during this period, Xu Lingjun practiced diligently day and night, his strength improved significantly, now reaching the Huichuan Middle Realm.
Even Roger probably didn't expect that although Han Yun City might have Xu Lingjun's contact information, finding him would still take some time to operate…
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Han Yun City was currently chatting with Xu Lingjun on the phone, casually forwarding the message without even changing the address.
And with this full force strike, the True Qi vortex swept the surrounding Spiritual Qi, condensing it to an almost tangible state.
The blood-colored True Qi filled Xu Lingjun with immense confidence, he could clearly feel how much more lethal this move was compared to when he faced Marquis Xia Wu in the past, at least double in strength?
Even if Marquis Xia Wu were to revive, if he fought me with this move…
He surely wouldn't gain much advantage.
A hit filled with confidence and unmatched force, like a meteor going upstream.
Fiercely pointing at the center of Roger's palm.
Breaking the surface with a point…
Although his absolute strength fell short, the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation allowed his True Qi to reach its maximum, even purer than that of a Profound Realm Martial Artist.
In a booming explosion.
An invisible wave blasted from where they clashed, scattering towards all directions.
With violent tremors and the panicked screams of nearby citizens fleeing in terror.
The two had already fallen back faster towards the directions they came from.
"What an impressive boy!!!"
Roger's figure flew high into the sky, inwardly startled, only feeling immense pain in his palm.
It felt like being drilled violently by an electric drill.
He thought to himself, I launched a sneak attack, already taking a great advantage, but this kid seemed to be prepared in advance, as if he knew beforehand I would attack him at this location.
Truly remarkable perception.
Meanwhile, after a hard clash with Roger, Xu Lingjun had fiercely hit back to the ground, exhaling deeply, and could clearly sense a paralyzing sensation of True Qi pouring into his body through his fingertips.
Xu Lingjun shook his arm, letting the True Qi enter his body, swiftly devoured by the Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique.
The numbness in his hand instantly dissipated.
With a flick of his right hand, the invisible Sword of Oath and Victory was already in his grasp.
Having undergone that exchange, Xu Lingjun faintly gauged that the opponent's strength was far above his, even with the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation + Reckless and Irresponsible, increasing his power by many folds, still he was no match for the opponent.
But he had pretty much figured it out now.
With just that ability, do you think you can break my defense?
You're probably dreaming…
With the Sword of Oath and Victory, holding out for a while shouldn't be a problem; if luck permits, a counterattack isn't impossible either.
Moreover…
He looked back.
Sure enough, at some point unknown to him, Wu Hongzhou had quietly appeared, standing on the other side.
They had already completely surrounded Xu Lingjun front and back.
"Hahaha, a bait? Foolish boy, you probably never expected two fish to come for your bait at once, did you?"
Roger laughed heartily, "Indeed, your strength has vastly improved compared to Xiaomu. No wonder Xiaomu feared and envied you so much, wanting to kill you for it."
Xu Lingjun's eyes lit up, thinking this person is quite perceptive… as if he had witnessed the truth back then.
He asked, "So, are you here to kill me?"
"No, we are here to kill you."
Roger's eyes flashed with ferocity, sneering, "I know you must have a signal device to contact the Divine Soldier Guard, but unfortunately, too late now. The three-day pact has driven Zhu Zhengdao nearly insane, he's beyond trying to capture us now. All he thinks about is how to prevent the Inspectorate from catching us, and you are left unattended. Even if reinforcements arrive, the fastest would be in five minutes, and five minutes are enough for me to kill you eight times!"
"You can try."
Xu Lingjun said coldly.
"You want to wait for Han Yun City? Too bad, by the time he arrives, he'd only see your corpse. Vice Sect Leader Wu, don't waste words with him, let's kill him together!"
Saying this, Roger already charged towards Xu Lingjun again, with thunder rumbling wrapped around his arm.
Clearly going all out.
After experiencing that previous strike, this kid's strength was still beyond his imagination.
If he were alone, trying to kill Xu Lingjun would require significant effort, but fortunately, he had Wu Hongzhou, whose strength was no less than his, assisting him, making it unlikely for Xu Lingjun to escape.
Immediately…
A massive sense of danger surged to his heart.
Roger instinctively dodged, but keenly sensed an invisible current slicing past his front… his chest audibly cut, leaving a gash deep enough to show his bones.
Roger was dumbfounded, staring in shock at Xu Lingjun holding the invisible sword, exclaiming, "He has a sword! Damn, why can't I see it?"
Wu Hongzhou explained, "It's probably a high-tech weapon, he has a girlfriend who's a researcher at Zhanzheng Academy."
"I see, don't worry. Once I've killed you, I'll reunite you with your girlfriend."
As the words fell.
Xu Lingjun silently rushed straight at Roger.
Utilizing the Sword of Oath and Victory, the time to unleash the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation was reduced to one second. Although he knew no swordsmanship, the sharpness of the Sword of Oath and Victory required none, treating it as an extension of his arm, everything in its path was obliterated.
Its unparalleled sharpness left Roger unable to counter, forced to retreat under the assault of the invisible sword…
He shouted, "Help me kill Xu Lingjun already; hasn't he been someone you wanted dead as fast as possible? Don't you wish to avenge Marquis Xia Wu?"
Hearing this, Wu Hongzhou sighed, "Sorry, kid, but blame yourself for killing someone you shouldn't have."
With that, he rushed towards Xu Lingjun.
His speed swift like the wind, compared to Roger's brashness and thunderous force, Wu Hongzhou's approach seemed effortless, yet his attack was even more sinister!
In the blink of an eye, he closed in on Xu Lingjun's side.
While Roger suddenly altered his move, unable to discern the weapon's length, but since it's only a sword, he thought, what if I regard it as the longest…
He wielded thunder.
Switching from defense to attack, he brought down roaring lightning.
The two Profound Realm experts teamed up, in mere moments, Xu Lingjun had nowhere to evade.
Especially with Roger striking swiftly, accompanying two severed fingers flying into the air.
Thunder gathering all his power slammed onto the Sword of Oath and Victory, the conductive weapon paralyzing Xu Lingjun's arm, losing his ability to move under Roger's strike.
And Roger laughed heartily, realizing at that moment he had previously overestimated this boy.
Xu Lingjun must have used a move akin to All Burn Together, hence his surprise… in terms of true strength, although above Xiaomu, the gap wasn't beyond his imagination.
This time, the advantage was greater!
Roger roared, "Kill him!!!"
"Understood!"
Wu Hongzhou shouted back, a dagger emitting a faint blue glow already in his right hand.
Charging towards Xu Lingjun, then bypassing him, deeply stabbing into Roger's chest.
