Guan Qianqiu had fought against Lu Li before so he knew what Lu Li was capable of. Therefore, Guan Qianqiu chose the same tactic. He gathered wind and released beast shadows to attack Lu Li.
Guan Qianqiu had passed the sixth Heaven's Tribulation and his soul had improved a lot. Even so, he didn't allow Lu Li to get close to him. Guan Qianqiu knew that Lu Li's soul attacks were powerful.
What was more, Guan Qianqiu had the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda. If he were sucked in again, he would be humiliated. Not only would he not be able to avenge himself, but he might not be able to move up again.
This time, there were 10 registered disciples. Guan Qianqiu didn't worry about the other eight. He only wanted to subdue Lu Li and take the bodies of the beasts in the void.
Not only could he avenge himself, but he could also make sure that Lu Li could not move up. Guan Qianqiu would have one less competitor, killing two birds with one stone.
Phantoms of beasts whooshed toward Guan Qianqiu. This skill was several times more powerful than before.
The same skill would be different when released by a warrior of the fifth tribulation and a warrior of the sixth tribulation.
Guan Qianqiu's skill was more powerful while Lu Li had passed the fifth Heaven's Tribulation. He had improved in all aspects. His defense was much stronger. Therefore, the two of them were equal in this aspect.
Of course, Guan Qianqiu's skill could hurt Lu Li before. If Lu Li had to fight back, he would be injured again.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
While Lu Li was using the Voidless Talismans, he also used divine energy to destroy the beasts coming at him. The Voidless Talismans and divine energy smashed into the shadows of the beasts, resulting in horrifying explosions.
At the same time, Lu Li used the Wind Soul Skill. Surges of soul energy floated over and reached Guan Qianqiu. Then, the soul energy pierced into Guan Qianqiu's soul.
"Soul attack!"
Guan Qianqiu's expressions changed. Last time, he was hit by such soul attacks and then was burned by Lu Li's Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda's flames.
If he were hit again, Lu Li's Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda could suck him in and suppress him even if there were no flames in it.
Therefore, Guan Qianqiu stepped back without any hesitation. At the same time, he took a black pellet which strengthened his soul.
He had it ready. He had someone of the Guan Family deliver it in secret to deal with Lu Li's soul attack.
As soon as he took the pellet, Guan Qianqiu's soul became 10 times stronger. He could withstand Lu Li's soul attacks with ease.
After he was sure that soul attacks could not harm him, he spun around Lu Li and released more phantoms of beasts at the same time.
"Isn't Young Master Guan being a little too cautious?"
"That's right. Let's just charge forward and heavily injure him in one move. Why waste time here?"
The two warriors at the peak of the Fifth Tribulation Realm murmured. Lu Li's Spirit of Wind was so subtle that there was no fluctuation. They could not detect it.
Senior Brother Ruan was also puzzled, but he didn't say anything. He just stared at the battle in the field.
"Boom boom boom!"
There were so many of them that Lu Li could not fend them all off. He was hit by one of them and was smashed away. His back was covered in blood, but it was only a superficial wound, not a serious one.
"His power has increased so much?"
Lu Li was speechless. He rolled his eyes, trying to figure out a way out.
Although Guan Qianqiu was infuriated, he was no fool. He did not give him a chance to get close.
Guan Qianqiu's soul seemed to have become stronger. Spirit of Wind could not affect him, so Lu Li could not use the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda to attack.
Guan Qianqiu was dozens of miles away and he had been staring at Lu Li. As long as Lu Li used the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda, Guan Qianqiu would run away faster than a rabbit.
The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda was fast, but it would be impossible for Lu Li to control it as if it was his own arm.
Therefore, it was almost impossible for Lu Li to burn Guan Qianqiu with the flames inside.
"Charge!"
After some thoughts, Lu Li made up his mind and rushed toward Guan Qianqiu. He kept generating Innocent Talismans to disperse the beasts coming at him.
Against the strong shockwaves, Lu Li approached Guan Qianqiu quickly.
"Ha, ha!"
Guan Qianqiu grinned. Lu Li was losing patience. He had no other choice but to try his best to get closer to Guan Qianqiu.
Guan Qianqiu moved around quickly, maintaining the distance between him and Lu Li. At the same time, he kept generating beast phantoms to attack Lu Li.
Lu Li's defense was strong, but how long could he last?
As Lu Li's wounds got worse, he might not be able to move at all, just like last time.
Last time, Guan Qianqiu destroyed Lu Li's elixir, but in the end, he was hit by Lu Li's soul attack.
But this time, he was prepared. Lu Li's soul attack could not hurt him. Guan Qianqiu was confident that he could defeat Lu Li this time.
"Brother Guan, don't play with him. Just cripple him!"
Brother Liu shouted impatiently, seeing that Lu Li was chasing and Guan Qianqiu was just dodging and attacking with the beast phantoms made of wind.
As far as he was concerned, Guan Qianqiu could hurt Lu Li with his wind-related Fundamental Principle. If Guan Qianqiu released more powerful moves, wouldn't he be able to injure Lu Li badly?
Brother Ruan and the other man were confused as well. Was Guan Qianqiu trying to play a game of cat and mouse?
But this was the sect's assessment. The fight had been dragged on for a long time and the commotion here was not small. What if some senior warriors of the sect were attracted here?
"Brothers, please wait a moment!"
Guan Qianqiu said with a bitter smile, "Lu Li has some tricks up his sleeves. I cannot let him get close so I need some time to wear him down. Brothers, please wait."
"Alright!"
Brother Ruan and the other two men were not in a hurry. After all, they were not the ones fighting Lu Li. Even if senior warriors of the sect were to come, it was none of their business. If someone was to be punished, it should be Guan Qianqiu and Lu Li.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Lu Li was chasing Guan Qianqiu but he could not shorten the distance between them.
Guan Qianqiu was at the Sixth Tribulation and he was a bit faster than Lu Li. On top of that, there were so many beast phantoms attacking Lu Li. How could Lu Li get closer?
Being attacked by the beast phantoms constantly, Lu Li's injuries were serious. If this went on, he would be seriously injured or even killed.
"There is a big gap between their abilities!"
Inside the castle, Emperor Jun shook his head and sighed. The other two Emperor Realm warriors nodded as well.
They could tell that both of them were holding back. They could tell that Lu Li had released soul attacks. Anyways, it was an undeniable fact that Lu Li's injuries were getting worse.
If Lu Li had a move that could win, he would have used it long ago. He wouldn't be chasing after Guan Qianqiu.
"Lu Li won't be at a disadvantage?"
Patriarch Lu looked at Rui Emperor with a smile and said, "This punk is at a disadvantage now. If this goes on, he will be at a greater disadvantage. Little Rui, you are going to lose this time, right?"
Rui Emperor and Patriarch Lu were betting that Lu Li would not be at a disadvantage. Judging by the current situation, Lu Li was at a disadvantage. Therefore, Patriarch Lu had won.
Rui Emperor frowned. Last time, Lu Li defeated Guan Qianqiu with soul attacks and the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda. It seemed that soul attacks were not going to work this time.
Could Lu Li turn the tables?
