Fried Salted Fish
Chapter 15 Luckily, My Skills Were Superior!
"Song Wuji, show yourself!"
The words were shouted out, carrying a mystical and immense power in the dark. Song Wuji felt as if his head had been struck by something, staggering backward eight or nine steps. After a stumble, the flames on his body suddenly receded, revealing a vermilion robe.
However, he wasn't beaten back into his original fireball form.
At this moment, Song Wuji's head was splitting with pain. He suddenly felt that the power of the righteous god he had obtained from the imperial decree had abruptly decreased by thirty percent after Ji Xiang's shout! This change shocked him!
Song Wuji was filled with suspicion and uncertainty, and his expression was slightly discolored. He thought to himself: I became a righteous god by borrowing the power of the state, existing together with the nation. Moreover, I have already become a righteous god. Although I don't have a divine name, my past name as a divine monster should no longer have any effect on me.
In that instant, Ji Xiang's abilities suddenly became profound in Song Wuji's eyes.
But how profound could they be?
In the end, he was just a Daoist who had only established his foundation for a hundred days!
Song Wuji's face was gloomy. He simply assumed that Ji Xiang had used some kind of suppression technique to break thirty percent of his divine power. But he estimated that with the remaining seventy percent, he could still easily kill Ji Xiang.
"To be able to use such a powerful suppression technique at the hundred-day foundation building stage... It's true that I suffered a small loss, but so what!"
Song Wuji's heart was filled with fierce killing intent!
Ji Xiang mobilized his mana, and his eyes became exceptionally clear. Using the Qi Observation technique, he saw that Song Wuji's aura as a fire god had declined, and his divine light was much dimmer. He immediately spoke, without hesitation, and taunted with a provocative gesture:
"Come, come, Song Wuji, didn't you want to kill this poor Daoist? Why are you so frightened by a single word from me that you retreated eight or nine steps? Could it be that you're so afraid of having your true nature exposed?"
"Come, come, this poor Daoist will just stand here. If you can make me move even one step, then I'll admit you have the ability!"
Ji Xiang opened fire with his taunts. Song Wuji had just suffered a loss, so of course, he couldn't endure such humiliation. Without another word, he rushed towards the main gate of the Longde Hall, a monstrous blaze rising beneath his feet.
"I'll see how long you can keep talking tough!"
Song Wuji approached, and Ji Xiang stood against the wind and fire, but only for a moment. He immediately turned and entered the hall. This action stunned Luo Sigong. Seeing that Song Wuji was about to enter the hall, he couldn't help but be shocked:
"This thing is just coming in like that? Daoist! Didn't you say you wouldn't move a step!"
Ji Xiang responded, "I really didn't move a step... because I've already started running!"
By this time, Ji Xiang had retreated all the way to the Sanqing statues, grabbed the incense burner, and swung it around to smash it at Song Wuji at the door. The incense burner broke through the wind, spinning in the air as it was thrown towards the door. Song Wuji waved his torch, and with a loud bang, the incense burner was directly knocked away and hit the wall!
But just as he swung the torch to strike the incense burner, Ji Xiang suddenly waved his sleeve, and countless yellow talismans on the surrounding walls were blown up by a gust of wind, flying towards Song Wuji!
You Sheng Curse! Seal him!
The power of the talismans was linked to the cultivation level of the person who drew them, but Ji Xiang knew that if his strength wasn't enough, he could make up for it with quantity. If a fire god transformed from a mere fire spirit wasn't afraid of the True Martial Great Emperor's spells, then that would be absurd!
If the opponent was really that powerful, Ji Xiang thought that he might as well let him kill him once, then resurrect after death and continue to run away.
Of course, although his true body was immortal, he would avoid damage to his physical body if possible.
Talismans that ward off water and fire, talismans of the True Martial Great Emperor, could resolve disasters of water and fire. Song Wuji was shocked to see the yellow talismans flying towards him:
"How could a mere foundation-building Daoist have so much mana to draw so many You Sheng Curses!"
But despite his surprise, Song Wuji was extremely wary of these yellow talismans. The You Sheng Curse was a divine curse that warded off water and fire. Someone like him, an assistant god, although he had received a lot of incense, didn't have a divine name and was only equivalent to the fifth realm of cultivators, "Manifesting Divinity."
Talismans were treasures used to defeat the strong with the weak, especially against gods, ghosts, and strange creatures. Song Wuji thought to himself, if he was entangled by the You Sheng Curse at this time, he would probably have most of his fire energy sealed!
He quickly circulated his divine skill, avoiding these yellow talismans, attempting to kill Ji Xiang with one move, so that the talismans would fall in all directions without anyone to control them.
"Gan Fan!" (Chasing and beating)
Gan Fan meant chasing and hitting. The so-called Five Manifestations Gods holding onto the fire gourd, Song Wuji chasing the red mule, referred to the fire god's quick feet, describing the rapid expansion of the fire in a short period of time!
Suddenly, a monstrous fire appeared, and Song Wuji himself instantly flashed to Ji Xiang's front, firelight rising from his feet, each step like a gust of wind. He stretched out his hand to capture Ji Xiang!
In that instant, it seemed that the situation was set! Ji Xiang was doomed to die!
But at this moment, as Ji Xiang approached the brink of death, he shouted loudly, and the Eastern Thunder Tablet among the five directional thunder tablets on the wall suddenly shook!
Boom!
A clap of thunder startled the Sanqing clay statues. Song Wuji felt as if he had been struck by lightning all over his body and was immediately sent flying!
"One thunder command resounds, startling ghosts and gods for ten thousand miles!"
Ji Xiang spoke again, shouting three more times in a row! Each shout consumed a large amount of vital energy from his body! When Daoist masters used the Five Thunder Command, they had to mix external vital energy with internal vital energy to unleash its power.
Of course, there was an even stronger "Three Strikes Command" in the Five Thunder Command, which guided one's own vital energy out of the body, transforming it into the heavenly power of the Thunder Citadel, capable of unleashing three heavenly powers. This usage was too advanced, consumed a great deal of energy, and the Five Thunder Command required was not an ordinary one, so Ji Xiang couldn't use it now.
At this moment, the sound of thunder echoed!
Two thunder commands, all ghosts turn to dust! Three commands follow the order, heavenly generals protect my body! Four commands are issued, all generals reveal their true forms!
Thus, the Western Thunder Tablet, the Southern Thunder Tablet, and the Northern Thunder Tablet all shook together!
Several consecutive loud sounds echoed in the Longde Hall, shaking Song Wuji's head and scattering his fire energy. For a moment, he even held his head in one hand, while the other hand wildly waved his torch. The sound of whipping came from around him, as if a dozen invisible heavenly generals were wielding golden whips, ganging up on the evil god!
At the same time, Ji Xiang chased after him, shouting a fifth time!
Switching from defense to offense!
The surrounding yellow talismans all fell down at the same time. Song Wuji took a beating from the Five Thunder Tablets. As he wildly waved his torch, the surrounding You Sheng yellow talismans fell one after another, sticking to his whole body and sealing his divine fire energy!
As soon as Song Wuji circulated his fire energy, it was completely dissolved by the You Sheng yellow talismans. The yellow talismans targeted flames, not mana, so he could still use his mana, but as a fire spirit, mana was fire energy, so at this time, he gradually couldn't maintain his human form!
Ji Xiang arrived in front of him, wielding the Taiyi Three Prime Sword with both hands!
Yue Bo Curse!
Mighty Comet God, shatter the nine heavens!
Divine sword strikes, ghosts annihilated in the nine springs!
The advantage is with me!
The yellow talismans on the Taiyi Three Prime Sword suddenly burned up, incense transformed into sword energy, and with one sword strike, Song Wuji was knocked over, directly sending him flying to the front of the hall door!
Song Wuji was injured by this sword strike and rolled on the ground, forcefully tearing at the You Sheng yellow talismans that warded off water and fire. Seeing his actions, Ji Xiang snorted coldly:
"It's not so easy for you to tear them off! Twelve Thunder Gates, suppress!"
After saying that, he took off the twelve prayer beads from his wrist and threw them forward. He waved the long sword in his hand, and the twelve beads dispersed and flew out!
"The Thunder Citadel has twelve gates, following the direction of the Dipper stars. The Dipper star points to Chou, its body is in Wei, what it points to is auspicious, what it's in is ominous!"
Boom boom boom boom boom boom...!
Twelve consecutive thunderclaps echoed within the Longde Hall. Even Luo Sigong, who was far away, covered his ears and was almost stunned, not to mention Song Wuji, who was surrounded by the Twelve Thunder Gates. At this time, the twelve thunderclaps shook him senseless!
Ji Xiang went over and waved the Taiyi Three Prime Sword, expanding his advantage. Song Wuji raised his torch to resist, but fell into a disadvantage!
That sword had great power, and even Song Wuji showed a look of fear!
"How can this kid's power be so great! His vital energy is so旺盛! This is definitely not the foundation-building realm!"
Barely fighting for less than two rounds, Ji Xiang sold a flaw. Song Wuji, eager to win, was indeed fooled, raised his torch, and the long blade in the torch was sharp, stabbing Ji Xiang in the kidneys with one slash!
"Ha...!?"
The tone changed from surprise to fright. Ji Xiang was stabbed, and instead of blood spurting from his waist and abdomen, a faint scent of incense qi flowed out. Moreover, Ji Xiang's movements were not affected at all. A wooden board had already been taken out of his pocket and smashed down on the dazed Song Wuji!
Under the altar-鎮压木, all gods listen!
A brick hit the center of his forehead, making Song Wuji see stars. Immediately following, Ji Xiang struck again with a sword, actually劈 sending Song Wuji tumbling in the air!
Song Wuji had nowhere to vent his anger. He was extremely uncomfortable being sealed by those yellow talismans. At this time, he was seriously injured by the previous sword strike, and most of his fire energy dissipated, so he couldn't help but be shocked and angry:
"What kind of thing are you, you don't even have blood?!"
However, Ji Xiang adhered to the principle of killing the enemy once he attacked, and did not answer. He suddenly threw out a small bell with three sharp prongs!
Ding-a-ling!
Three Purity Bell!
Holding the imperial bell in hand, streamers and bells in all directions, throw fire for ten thousand miles!
The Three Purity Bell was thrown out. This item had the power to descend gods and eliminate demons in the Daoist sect!
The three prongs on the bell directly pierced Song Wuji's chest, carrying a great force,叉 sending him out of the hall door!
Song Wuji rushed into the Longde Hall, coming quickly.
Song Wuji flew out of the Longde Hall, leaving hurriedly.
Ji Xiang also threw the Tianpeng Ruler flying. The wooden ruler was wrapped with talismans and incense, spinning and flying, hitting Song Wuji hard on the forehead, giving him a red stamp!
Luo Sigong was still dizzy in the hall, only to come back to his senses. Ji Xiang had already strode out of the hall door, holding the Taiyi Three Prime Sword, wildly slashing at Song Wuji, who was lying on the ground unable to get up!
Until the fire energy was scattered on the spot by the乱砍 wild slashing, Song Wuji finally revealed his true form, turning into a ball of fire, and extinguished in this way under the burial of those You Sheng Curses.
After砍完 slashing完完, Ji Xiang was still not at ease. He continuously stamped his feet on that pile of符纸 talismans paper,踩踩踩 stepping down dozens of times. Seeing that nothing钻出来 crawled out, he finally relieved a sigh of relief:
"I was almost killed by this fire god. Fortunately, my skills are superior!"
