CHAPTER 1054: CHAPTER 1054: DUELING ZIWEI AGAIN

"That’s right, it’s done!" Long Eyebrow, pale and with traces of blood on the corner of his mouth, looked at the appearing Emperor Ziwei, nodding secretly in his heart.

His goal had been achieved; Emperor Ziwei had been lured out, and the existence of the Cash-Dropping Coin indeed caught his attention.

For the Cash-Dropping Coin, he even ignored the Great Luo Realm demon, showing his greed for it.

In this case, all I need to do is to lead him away.

Remembering the plan made with Master Xuanzang, and seeing Emperor Ziwei’s determined stance, holding a purple long sword swinging at him, Long Eyebrow had no intention of clashing directly with Emperor Ziwei. He directly turned and fled quickly into the distance.

Even in my prime, I was not a match for this Great Luo Peak Emperor Ziwei. Now, being injured, it’s impossible for me to be his opponent.

Therefore, turning to escape in front of Emperor Ziwei is a very reasonable action.

"Trying to escape!?" Watching Long Eyebrow turn and flee, Emperor Ziwei thought it was normal. His eyes narrowed slightly and instinctively chased in Long Eyebrow’s direction.

In an instant pursuit and escape, they quickly distanced themselves, even the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals beside them couldn’t catch up.

How could they catch up with two Great Luo Golden Immortal level experts flying at full speed?

"This guy, although seriously injured, isn’t slow at all!" Emperor Ziwei was secretly surprised in his heart, having chased Long Eyebrow for a while but not catching up.

Immortals can soar through clouds and command fog, traveling the mountains and seas in a day. Great Luo Golden Immortals fly even faster at full speed.

In just a quarter of an hour, Long Eyebrow and Emperor Ziwei crossed tens of thousands of miles, directly reaching the deepest part of the North Sea.

Though there is a saying not to chase a cornered enemy, Emperor Ziwei, as one of the Four Royals of the Heavenly Court, was naturally very confident in his strength.

Moreover, with the temptation of the Cash-Dropping Coin, Emperor Ziwei was relentless, persistently chasing Long Eyebrow with no intention to give up.

When Long Eyebrow and Emperor Ziwei arrived in the North Sea one after the other, the relatively weaker Long Eyebrow was finally caught by Emperor Ziwei.

Emperor Ziwei, holding a purple long sword, emanated dazzling purple light from his body, blocking Long Eyebrow’s path: "What? Have you chosen this North Sea as your final resting place? If so, I must say, your choice isn’t bad!"

"Looking at your demeanor, you seem to have me all figured out?" Emperor Ziwei’s words made Long Eyebrow squint slightly, speaking coldly.

"What?"

Hearing Long Eyebrow’s words, Emperor Ziwei’s face revealed a trace of sarcasm: "Even in your prime, you weren’t my opponent. Do you think, in your injured state, you can defeat me now?"

"No, no, no. I didn’t say I would defeat you. But, have you not considered? Maybe I intentionally led you here?" Long Eyebrow shook his head and said to Emperor Ziwei.

Long Eyebrow’s words made Emperor Ziwei’s heart skip a beat, reflexively feeling a bit uneasy.

Intentionally led here? If that’s true, then things could get troublesome!

"Hmph, you don’t need to pretend anymore. Do you think such words can scare me?" Although feeling some anxiety, Emperor Ziwei remained outwardly calm, speaking to Long Eyebrow.

Speaking as if he wasn’t intimidated in the slightest.

"Hey, Holy Monk, if you don’t come out now, when will you?" Long Eyebrow didn’t argue with Emperor Ziwei and instead called out.

"Holy Monk!?" Hearing Long Eyebrow’s words, Emperor Ziwei’s heart tightened slightly.

In the Three Realms and Six Paths, who now could be called a Holy Monk? It seems Long Eyebrow has joined forces with Xuanzang now?

"Cough, cough. Sorry, do you believe me if I say I just happened to pass by?" At this moment, as Long Eyebrow finished speaking, Jiang Liu naturally emerged from the shadows, speaking to Emperor Ziwei.

Watching Jiang Liu emerge from the shadows, Emperor Ziwei’s brows furrowed slightly.

It seems Long Eyebrow’s words weren’t wrong. He really did team up with Xuanzang to lure me here?

A trap?

"Xuanzang, we have faced each other before. Your strength is indeed impressive, but have you forgotten? Last time you returned empty-handed. Do you think that adding Long Eyebrow increases your chances against me?" Emperor Ziwei’s gaze fixed on Jiang Liu as he spoke.

"Who knows until we try?" Jiang Liu shrugged, showing an unconcerned demeanor, in response to Emperor Ziwei’s words.

Seeing Jiang Liu’s demeanor, Emperor Ziwei’s expression remained calm, but internally he felt a sinking feeling.

The last time facing Xuanzang, I revealed the Kongdong Seal, which halted Xuanzang from proceeding. Yet this time, he’s teamed up with Long Eyebrow?

If they had no way to counter the Kongdong Seal, they wouldn’t proceed, would they?

As for Long Eyebrow alone, could he really handle the Kongdong Seal?

Things have come to this point, saying more pointless words is meaningless. Afraid that delays would bring trouble, Jiang Liu did not speak much, and raised his hand, lifting the Thunder Spear.

Then, he pointed the Thunder Spear towards Emperor Ziwei, casting the Weakness Talisman skill.

Grayish-white aura gathered in mid-air, forming a talisman full of ominous and evil aura, dropping directly.

Having fought alongside Jiang Liu before, Emperor Ziwei was well aware of Jiang Liu’s methods. Seeing the Weakness Talisman skill about to fall, Emperor Ziwei raised his hand, trying to block the descending talisman.

However, as the Weakness Talisman descended, it felt like a shadow without substance, directly merging into Emperor Ziwei’s body.

With the Weakness Talisman entering his body, Emperor Ziwei felt as if he had contracted a serious illness, with all his attributes dropping a level.

"Attack!"

There wasn’t much combat tacit understanding between him and Long Eyebrow. Thus, as the Weakness Talisman skill took effect, Jiang Liu spoke, reminding Long Eyebrow.

At the same time, the Thunder Spear was raised and directly smashed towards Emperor Ziwei’s direction.

In terms of level, he was naturally much weaker than Emperor Ziwei, but after the Weakness Talisman reduced the opponent’s overall attributes, both were at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.

So, the original gap naturally became much smaller.

Hearing Jiang Liu’s reminder, Long Eyebrow’s reaction was not slow. He raised his hand, and a horsetail whisk transformed into thousands of threads, entangling towards Emperor Ziwei.

"Get away from me!" Seeing the threads coming to entangle him, Emperor Ziwei wielded the long sword in his hand, sending waves of Sword Qi towards those threads.

The thousands of threads transformed into a white wave-like shape, but the Sword Qi in Emperor Ziwei’s hand had the power to cut through the waves.

These dense threads pressing down were severed by the Sword Qi.

Holding the Thunder Spear in hand, Jiang Liu brandished and slashed, the spear shrouded in a layer of fine lightning.

However, waves of Sword Qi came head-on, similarly making it difficult for Jiang Liu to get close to Emperor Ziwei.

In fact, this rebounding force even pushed Jiang Liu’s form, retreating significantly.

"Indeed, it’s the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Even with the skills of the Weakness Talisman reducing all his attributes, he’s still this formidable!" Being pressured and retreating by the Sword Qi, Jiang Liu looked at Emperor Ziwei, secretly amazed.

Although he had fought with Emperor Ziwei before and deeply understood Emperor Ziwei’s strength, Jiang Liu was still amazed at Emperor Ziwei’s power when fighting again.

The peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, just a step away from stepping into the Quasi-Saint level, such power is indeed unparalleled by ordinary people.

Holding the purple long sword, waves of Sword Qi were slashed out, pressing Xuanzang and Long Eyebrow, making them unable to even approach him.

On the surface, it seemed his strength had the upper hand, but Emperor Ziwei clearly understood that this was merely superficial.

Last time, having fought against Xuanzang, Emperor Ziwei deeply understood Xuanzang’s terror.

His strength did not lie in his cultivation level, but in his ability to comprehend Law-type abilities even before reaching the Quasi-Saint level.

Therefore, Emperor Ziwei was well aware that once Xuanzang used these Law-type abilities, the situation would be unfavorable.

However, similarly, he hadn’t taken out his Kongdong Seal, and he wondered, what method does Xuanzang have this time? To fend against his Kongdong Seal?

The battle between Great Luo Golden Immortal level powerhouses seemed indeed very intense, each move possessing apocalyptic might.

The battle of these three Great Luo Golden Immortal level powerhouses made all creatures within hundreds of miles around the North Sea flee in all directions.

After all, the aftermath of their battle alone carried terrifying power.

After fighting for a while, seeing no substantial progress, Jiang Liu pointed the Thunder Spear, retreated many steps, and his expression became much more solemn.

Should he use the All-or-Nothing skill?

But to deal with Emperor Ziwei, should he risk injury and pain to cause him harm? There’s completely no need for it!

With a thought, Jiang Liu raised his hand, casting the Silencing Zen skill directly onto Emperor Ziwei.

It’s here!

Feeling the power in his body becoming like a dead pool of water, unable to mobilize, Emperor Ziwei’s heart tightened.

Directly taking out the Kongdong Seal...
