Chapter 1090: The Battle Of Golden Tang (II)
Situ Mo had already regained his composure. Drawing his blade, he said coldly, “Seize them at once!”
The six Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, led by Situ Biao, immediately surrounded Ding Weizeng while one split off to block An Siwei. Situ Biao even took out a golden command token that radiated brilliant light that formed a net of energy over Ding Weizeng.
Though Ding Weizeng was skilled in combat, he was only in the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm and could not possibly withstand the combined assault of six opponents, especially with Situ Biao, whose cultivation was on par with his own, among them. He was quickly forced onto the defensive, gritting his teeth as he struggled to hold his ground.
While Ding Weizeng was caught in a perilous struggle, Li Minggong fared no better against Situ Mo. His blade techniques had overwhelmed her from the beginning, and the golden qi he unleashed spread like a chilling mist that bit into her skin.
Li Minggong had only been in the Foundation Establishment Realm for a few years and was no match for Situ Mo. Fortunately, True Fire refined metal, and her fire barely managed to hold back the golden qi with the aid of the Six-Cornered Scarlet Flame Lamp. Situ Mo’s blade qi could only be blocked by her dharma artifact directly. Resounding dong-dong impacts rang out.
The Six-Cornered Scarlet Flame Lamp is a gift from the Golden Feather Sect... it’s sturdy enough... it shouldn’t fail immediately...
Li Minggong no longer had the luxury of worrying whether her dharma artifact had sustained damage. The golden blade in midair had already curved back and was now thrusting straight at her back.
A chill spread across Li Minggong’s back before the golden blade even reached her. She spat out a stream of flame from her crimson lips, barely forcing back the blade before her, then turned her lamp to block the incoming strike.
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out as sparks exploded in midair. The golden light retreated swiftly. Li Minggong let out a muffled groan, a deep gash now carved into her arm, revealing bone.
Though the Golden Tang Gate had declined in talent, their spell arts remained formidable. This Golden Blaze Saber strike was blindingly fast. Even though she had used her dharma artifact to block in time, she had only managed to catch the edge of it with the artifact’s body. The golden blade had been deflected but still slashed her arm.
The chilling poison of metal immediately sought to invade her body, but her True Fire Dao foundation surged and effortlessly dissolved it. Lifting her gaze, she saw Situ Mo forming seals once more, brilliant golden light shining in his palm.
