Li Chengfeng's discovery was like a shot in the arm. There was nothing more exciting than giving someone a taste of their own medicine!
However, Li Chengfeng did not act rashly. Instead, he observed this unprecedentedly powerful opponent more cautiously, observing his every move.
At this moment, Jue Wuji was controlling countless insectoids to charge towards Zhao Feiyue. If someone looked down from above, they would see countless insectoids flying out from the dark grey ground behind Jue Wuji. They gathered together like a raging black current, howling as they charged towards Zhao Feiyue.
Individually, these insectoids looked insignificant and could not cause any harm or threat to any cultivator.
However, when the countless insect puppets converged into a torrent and exploded upon contact, it became an extremely terrifying force!
Moreover, just the momentum alone was enough to frighten people!
Zhao Feiyue looked at the black tide that blotted out the sky, and the light in front of her dimmed. All the sounds in the world disappeared, and only the buzzing sound of the insects' wings could be heard in her ears.
The buzzing got closer and closer. When it got closer, it was so loud that it could shake the ground. Even the roof tiles on the houses were clanking.
Even Li Chengfeng, who was watching from the side, could not help but be alarmed by the sound!
He had controlled insectoids to attack before but compared to Jue Wuji's, the difference was like a raging wave in a river and a tsunami!
Zhao Feiyue immediately released her aura. It was as if there was an invisible castle surrounding her within a ten meter radius. The moment the countless centipedes collided with it, they immediately exploded, forming a violent and explosive force that distorted the air and shook the ground. Li Chengfeng almost fell to the ground.
The rumbling explosions made Li Chengfeng feel like he was in the middle of a battlefield. The densely packed explosions made his body sway and his eardrums hurt!
Li Chengfeng could not help but open his mouth. If not, his eardrums would have been ruptured by the explosions. His brain was in pain and his brain was numb!
Zhao Feiyue was in the middle of the torrent, and her figure could no longer be seen. Her surroundings were constantly being attacked by the endless exploding bug puppets. At first, she did not think much of it, but as time passed, she quickly discovered to her horror that the accumulation of quantity had led to a qualitative change!
As the explosions continued to consume her magic power and true essence, Zhao Feiyue realized that if the bombardment of the other party's insect puppets was truly endless, and she didn't have any countermeasure, then she would be exhausted to death here!
Just as Zhao Feiyue was about to mobilize the Sky River Divine Sword to counterattack, she was shocked to find that she had lost contact with the Sky River Divine Sword!
She could no longer sense the existence of the Sky River Divine Sword!
It was as if the Milky Way Divine Sword had been seized by the opponent!
This was no small matter, and Zhao Feiyue was horrified!
The might of the Sky River Divine Sword was self-evident. Without it, Zhao Feiyue's strength would fall by more than one level!
Most importantly, the Sky River Divine Sword was brought down by Zhao Feiyue from the Ninth Heaven. It was the symbol of her identity and where she belonged.
Without the Sky River Divine Sword, Zhao Feiyue instantly felt like she was alone in the world. She did not know who she was or where she was going.
This was also the terrifying thing about Jue Wuji!
He could use a large number of bug puppets to create a qualitative change, and eventually produce an overwhelming advantage. At the same time, the explosion of a large number of bug puppets would instantly create a barrier around the opponent, blocking the resonance between the magical weapon and its owner.
Because the violent explosion distorted space, no magic could be transmitted or mobilized in this explosive space. It was equivalent to a cultivator being cut off from the outside world, trapped on an isolated island.
No matter how powerful a cultivator was, they would be slowly ground to death, and in the end, they would just sit and wait for death!
At this moment, the Sky River Divine Sword was like a giant beast trapped by countless bug puppets. Although it was extremely powerful, the endless bug puppets and explosions made it feel like it was stuck in a quagmire. Even if it had the power to transcend the heavens, it could not use it. It charged left and right, up and down, but there were endless explosions everywhere, causing the sword to tremble. Its struggle became weaker and weaker.
Li Chengfeng saw this and secretly sighed at Jue Wuji's way of fighting.
This was a unique way of thinking in a battle of magical powers!
Absolute Disease was a master of controlling germs and puppets. First, he released the plague to kill people. After killing them, the large amount of corroded corpses would become a source of energy for the puppets to evolve and reproduce. At this time, countless puppets would be released, and with his own mana and spells, each puppet would be covered with mana and would explode with mana.
Although this kind of explosion could not even hurt a hair on a cultivator's body.
It was like the opponent in a game could not break his defense at all and could only cause a little damage in the end.
However, Jue Wuji's way of thinking was: Yes, I can't cause great damage to you, but what about accumulating sand into a tower?
What about a thousand, ten thousand, a hundred thousand, a million, or even … a terrifying hundred million?
How much damage would be caused by the accumulation of these countless points of damage?
At the same time, he took advantage of the characteristics of the cultivator's magical power conduction, and used the endless explosions to separate the opponent's magical power and thoughts from the artifact, thus forming a situation where he had the advantage of numbers against the opponent.
This way, the magical weapon could only fight alone. The result of this was that the magical weapon did not understand the principle of killing the leader first. It would only choose to attack the nearest enemy and the enemy who was attacking it.
This way, the battlefield was completely divided by Jue Wuji. He could stand in an invincible position and slowly exhaust his opponent!
Zhao Feiyue also noticed Jue Wuji's fighting strategy. She quickly made a hand seal and created an extremely fierce pillar of fire within a ten-meter radius!
This pillar of fire shot into the sky and quickly spread outwards. It was at least twenty to thirty meters wide. Li Chengfeng could feel the heat wave from afar. He instinctively raised his hand to block it and his hair was immediately burnt and curled.
However, Jue Wuji's reaction was even faster. He seemed to have already expected Zhao Feiyue's response. At this moment, countless Insect Centipedes whizzed up, surrounding the pillar of flames as they soared into the sky, exploding densely along the way.
Zhao Feiyue suddenly realised that the pillar of fire she released was … instantly extinguished after the violent explosion!
Zhao Feiyue's jaw dropped!
What was going on?
Li Chengfeng saw this and looked at Jue Wuji in shock. 'Did he discover the secret of not being able to burn without air?'
Li Chengfeng did not know if Jue Wuji knew this scientific principle but it was obvious that Jue Wuji's reaction was very correct.
The dense explosions instantly sucked away the air around the pillar of fire, forming a temporary vacuum. The pillar of fire instantly burned away all the air inside and naturally extinguished!
Zhao Feiyue's actions were like pulling firewood from the bottom of a pot. Not only did she not escape, the place she was in became severely oxygen-deprived and even breathing became difficult.
The dense explosion of the surrounding insect puppets sealed off Zhao Feiyue's escape route. Zhao Feiyue's expression changed drastically. She realised that she had to face an even more terrifying situation. She could either sit here and wait for her death, or she could take the risk and charge out despite the danger of being bombed.
However, her opponent was a famous demon. If he could predict her reaction in an instant, how could he not predict her attempt to charge out?
Zhao Feiyue's heart sank. She turned to look at Li Chengfeng, wanting him to run away. However, all she could see were dense explosions and flames. She could not see anything outside at all.
Zhao Feiyue felt extremely bitter. Could it be that her fate with the Palace Lord was going to end here?
What she did not know was that Li Chengfeng was no longer watching from the sidelines. He knew he had to step up or Zhao Feiyue would die here today!
As Zhao Feiyue wasn't familiar with Jue Wuji's combat style, she fell into his battle rhythm and trap from the very beginning. She was like an insect that had fallen into a spider's web, and it was naturally extremely difficult for her to escape.
There was no such thing as an invincible cultivator in this world. No matter how strong a cultivator was, they all had their natural enemies.
