Chapter 377: God’s Descent, Heavenly Spirit, Lu Junyi!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“You’re a famous hero yourself. Don’t you feel overqualified to work as a mere commander here?
“Please make way for me. Once I find what I want, I’ll make you the generalissimo of Chu! You’ll be of equal status as the prime minister!”
Wang Qing didn’t attack Lu Junyi immediately.
Instead, he tried to cozy up to Lu Junyi by promising him a position equal to that of Li Zhu!
“How can a common fellow read the mind of a great man? Enough with the small talk! Bring it on!”
Of course, Lu Junyi wouldn’t accept his terms.
He had memories of his fate and knew that, originally, he was almost defeated by Li Zhu, Mr. Golden Sword.
Therefore, he cut Wang Qing off and pointed his wooden stick at his forehead.
“Hmph! How ungrateful!
“I appreciate your talent, which is why I want to give you a chance. Do you really think you’re invincible?!”
Wang Qing was infuriated.
The golden dragon rod shone brightly as it struck down at Lu Junyi. The ear-splitting dragon roar contained Extraordinary Rank-9 power.
As the head of the villain, Wang Qing was an Extraordinary Rank-9, just like Fang La. But unlike Fang La, who was more like a mage, Wang Qing was also a stick wielder, which was why he said those words.
Unlike Gongsun Sheng, who had successfully made a breakthrough, Lu Junyi had yet to become a real Extraordinary Rank-9 fighter. Compared with Wang Qing, he was on the inferior side.
However, Lu Junyi wasn’t going to give way.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With a twist of his wrist, images of the purple stick seemed to fill the air, all containing Lu Junyi’s impressive power.
“Ha!”
Lu Junyi then hummed, and the images converged until there was only the stick left.
The power of the purple Qilin Stick immediately exceeded Extraordinary Rank-8, and it became an Extraordinary Rank-9 weapon. Even compared with other Extraordinary Rank-9 weapons, it was still an impressive one!
The strike was similar to that used by Zhao Yun when Ji Ye fought all nine heroes. Technically speaking, Lu Junyi’s strike was the original version.
Being one of the most capable Heavenly Spirits, Lu Junyi also had his talent ability. He could accurately control his own power and could even accumulate his strength before exerting it all at once.
In fact, Zhao Yun had studied this talent ability before he created his own stance with the Snow Spear.
Because of its low popularity, this talent wasn’t as powerful as Song Jiang’s leadership talent, but it was still more powerful than that of Wang Qing.
After all, most people of Chidragon had never even heard of Wang Qing’s name.
Pa!
The purple Qilin Stick with the accumulated power collided with the golden rod, which was still giving off the deafening dragon roar.
Boom!
The impact created a shockwave as powerful as a hurricane centered around the two sticks. Even the mountain walls hundreds of meters above them cracked, and stones the size of basins showered down.
But neither of them moved because the falling stone was destroyed by the ferocious energy before they could fall to the ground.
Wrapped around by the Dragon Aura, Wang Qing was unscratched by the strike.
Crack!
Lu Junyi’s Qilin arm protector cracked. With his talent, he was able to raise the strength of his attack to Extraordinary Rank-9, but it didn’t mean that he could withstand the counterattack of the same level of strength.
Luckily, the Qilin Stick built from the core of the Purple Wood could absorb enough shockwave, and he was able to withstand the remaining power.
But in terms of defensive ability, Lu Junyi was inferior to Wang Qing, who was already an Extraordinary Rank-9 and was protected by his Dragon Aura, which was much more powerful than the Tiger Leopard Aura.
“Come again!”
But Lu Junyi had no intention to back off. With the purple Qilin Stick, he charged at Wang Qing again.
Boom, boom, boom!
The purple stick met the golden rod, and the Qilin smashed into the dragon. The continuous impact completely destroyed what was left of the fortifications.
Wang Qing was good with his rod and was at least as capable as a Superior hero. With his Dragon Aura, he could make attacks without having to worry about defending himself. He was gaining ground even when he was fighting against Lu Junyi, the best stick wielder.
Knowing the difference between their strength and defense power, Lu Junyi fought with all he could and tried to skillfully defeat his enemy.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
He blocked the golden dragon rod by hitting it on the side with the Qilin Stick so that the rod would land on empty air. The purple Qilin glowed and walked on the collapsed fortification as if it was flat ground.
“Go!”
After exchanging over a dozen strikes, Lu Junyi found an opportunity and struck Wang Qing’s golden rod away. He aimed the tip of the wooden stick at Wang Qing’s throat.
He was moving at his top speed. Although he didn’t have time to activate his other talents, he had activated the energy that he had been accumulating in the stick. The sudden burst of energy had exceeded that of the first strike. It was as powerful as a peak Extraordinary Rank-9 strike!
“You!”
Even Wang Qing paled a little, even though Lu Junyi was using a stick, not a spear. With that Extraordinary Rank-9 power, even a drop of water could be lethal.
However, at the critical moment, the dragon roared fiercely, and the Dragon Aura suddenly bit down on the tip of the Qilin Stick.
Moreover, it waved its tail and smacked the purple Qilin that Lu Junyi was riding.
Pa!
The purple Qilin immediately fell into pieces and turned into a pile of plastic-looking bits. After all, it wasn’t a real Qilin. It was a simulated Qilin mobile armor, which Lu Junyi had traded in the City of Humans.
Although it contained Transcendent power, it was more of a transformed type rather than a solid armor. Naturally, it couldn’t withstand the direct strike of the formidable Dragon Aura.
Crack!
Even the Qilin Stick that could absorb energy couldn’t withstand the Dragon Aura and lost a chunk in the dragon’s mouth.
Boom!
The dragon also smacked Lu Junyi on the chest with one of its claws.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The Perfect Extraordinary Rank-8 Qilin armor shattered like the purple Qilin did. For the first time, Lu Junyi stumbled back. It took him twelve steps, which all left deep footprints on the ground, to offset the impact.
“Roar!”
However, after forcing Lu Junyi away, Wang Qing didn’t press on. Instead, he leaped up at the Eagle Peak, with the dragon roaring beside him.
It wasn’t that he had deliberately spared Lu Junyi for future use after he conquered the Twin Dragon Island. He had flown away because he couldn’t actually control the rampaging power of the Dragon Aura. It would actively protect him, but it wouldn’t take his order.
Moreover, the livestream in the clouds had become rather urgent by then. The troops of Liao and Tian Hu had scattered his troops and were charging at his central column.
Although Lu Junyi had lost his ground, he was still very tough, and it would take quite some time to kill him.
In comparison, he found the task of killing the “mage” up on the Eagle Peak his top priority.
“Let’s go!”
Shielded by his Dragon Aura, Wang Qing waved his golden dragon rod around and broke the line of defense. No one could stop him.
Although Lu Junyi had lost a chunk of his Qilin Stick, he wasn’t severely injured and could still fight. He was able to block the strike at the cost of his Qilin armor. However, with his purple Qilin gone, he wouldn’t be able to catch up with Wang Qing, who was flying with the dragon!
“Commander Lin, now!”
Watching Wang Qing, who had hurt hundreds of people on his way up, Lu Junyi spoke in a serious tone.
“No problem... I hereby invite the Heavenly Spirits. Divine soldier, please come quickly at my command!”
Ninth Uncle’s deep voice filled the air.
“Huh?”
Wang Qing was already halfway up the mountain. Thanks to his Dragon Aura, he could ignore the blue wind.
Suddenly, a purple star lit up above the Eagle Peak. The two beams of light it gave off were so bright that it overpowered the setting sun.
One beam of light transformed into a divine soldier looking exactly like Lu Junyi, who took shape in front of Wang Qing and was also wearing a purple Qilin armor. The other beam of light turned into a purple Qilin, who lifted the real Lu Junyi onto its back and carried him up the mountain.
In the end, the two Lu Junyi fused into one.
Whoosh!
Immediately, his power broke the bottleneck. Thanks to the “God Invitation” power Lu Junyi had activated in the battle, he was able to make a breakthrough into Extraordinary Rank-9!
The shiny Qilin armor the divine soldier was wearing was wrapped around Lu Junyi’s body. As he charged forward on the back of the purple Qilin that was transformed from the purple star, he shouted in his confident voice.
“Come again!”
...
“It seems that he won’t be needing me,” Ji Ye said quietly.
He was actually on the Dragon Peak rather than the Eagle Peak.
“Are the Souls of Civilization and offerings ready?”
He asked Su Nongying through the walkie-talkie as he worked on the livestream.
“They’re already in the Temple of Providence.”
“Good. We’ll start the sacrificial ritual right away!”
