Upon unleashing this strike, Ji Haoyuan clearly felt that half of the Magical Power within him was instantly depleted.
Yet undeniably, the power of the current Red Sky Thunder was far stronger than before.
A resounding boom was heard.
A fiercely sharp Sword Qi abruptly dispersed the boundless flames and thunder.
Although its potency still lingered, it had weakened significantly compared to just before.
A chime suddenly exploded.
The second-tier mid-grade Spiritual Artifact, Dharma Sound Bell, in front of Ji Haoyuan, instantly dimmed and spun back into Ji Haoyuan’s hand.
Immediately after, a yellow halo spread out.
Having been re-refined by him, the grade had fully reached second-tier high-grade Defensive Spiritual Artifact, Kunluo Spirit Umbrella, enveloping Ji Haoyuan all at once.
The remaining trace of sharp black Sword Gang descended straight upon the Kunluo Spirit Umbrella.
The yellow halo formed by the Kunluo Spirit Umbrella was seen being cut down layer by layer.
Until it cut to the body of the Kunluo Spirit Umbrella.
Only then did the remaining Sword Gang scatter into a multitude of Spiritual Qi and vanish without a trace.
But, at that moment, a cracking sound suddenly emanated from the Talisman Treasure engraved with the black small knife.
Immediately, Yu Changkong’s face was twisted in agony.
Almost half of the Magical Power within him surged into the Talisman Treasure at that instant, causing it to shine brightly again.
And this time, the aura emitted from the Talisman Treasure was even more terrifying than the previous two times.
Yu Changkong roared angrily.
In an instant, a looming black Sword Gang, ten zhang long, roared out from the Talisman Treasure.
Wherever it passed, everything turned to dust.
Even the ground beneath it was torn open leaving a long fissure by its aftermath.
The ferocity and strength of this strike were enough to slaughter any cultivator below the Golden Core Realm.
In the distance, Feng Wanqing and Liu Hongyu felt their eyes pierce with pain, and their whole bodies were pricked with a stinging sensation.
And this was merely the Qi Mechanism leaked by the Sword Gang.
They truly could not imagine the immense pressure Ji Haoyuan, the target of that Sword Gang, was enduring at this moment.
Ji Haoyuan clearly hadn’t anticipated that Yu Changkong could still activate the power of the Talisman Treasure for a third time.
It’s worth noting that a Talisman Treasure surpassing Foundation Establishment Stage requires a substantial amount of Magical Power each time it’s activated.
Under normal circumstances, a typical Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would be nearly drained of Magical Power upon triggering even once the power of a Talisman Treasure.
Even for late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, twice would be their utmost limit.
Yet the scene before him, with Yu Changkong...
Ji Haoyuan couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Feeling the remaining half of Magical Power within him, he finally discarded any hesitation.
His eyes suddenly flashed with endless starlight.
Followed by the appearance of a star seeming to fall from the sky.
A vague star shadow quickly merged into Ji Haoyuan’s body.
In an instant, endless starlight rose around Ji Haoyuan.
His entire aura heightened abruptly.
Ji Haoyuan suddenly clenched his fists, strands of starlight swiftly coalescing on them, and then unleashed them directly.
In mid-air, a large star seemed to drift closer.
The black Sword Gang collided with it.
Immediately exploding like a meteor. Follow current novᴇls on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥
A massive blaze ascended skyward.
Two deep bone-revealing knife scars abruptly appeared on Ji Haoyuan’s fists.
Following that, the starlight around him violently shattered, and he staggered backward several steps.
But after this clash, the trace of black Sword Gang seemed to have exhausted its last bit of power.
With a whoosh, it scattered into the air, disappearing in waves.
Witnessing the scene, Yu Changkong, his Magical Power nearly drained, stared wildly.
His face was filled with disbelief.
He truly couldn’t imagine what kind of monster the person before him was.
It was already impressive enough for him to withstand consecutive attacks from the Talisman Treasure.
Yet this last time, he had clearly exerted all his strength.
Even overusing the treasure’s power, causing it to shatter directly.
But still, unable to kill the person.
Before he could think further, a chilling Sword Qi had already swept across his neck.
Under his shocked gaze, it cleanly decapitated him.
Swords shone in the air.
The remaining Netherworld Sect cultivators who hadn’t escaped earlier were all slain by those sword rays.
Thus, all Netherworld Sect cultivators above Foundation Establishment Stage perished.
Ji Haoyuan glanced at Feng Wanqing, Liu Hongyu, and a few others who were equally stunned, signaling them to handle the subsequent matters.
As for himself, he sat cross-legged, took out several pills, and began to recover slowly.
Although the injuries from the battle weren’t severe, his Magical Power was nearly depleted.
No doubt, Talisman Treasure, bearing the power of Golden Core Magical Treasure, is indeed extremely formidable.
If he hadn’t mastered the Star Battle Body, this battle might have been somewhat risky.
Yet likewise, this battle gave him a clearer understanding of the Star Battle Body’s power.
At least for now, confronting the Talisman Treasure head-on seems manageable.
And this is just the current power of the Star Battle Body.
If he continues cultivating and enhances it, could it possibly withstand a direct strike from a Golden Core True Man?
Ji Haoyuan no longer pondered these issues.
Now, as he operated the Profound Fire and Earth Technique, drawing power from the Earth Vein below, he quickly absorbed the pill’s medicinal power within and converted it into his Magical Power.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Ji Haoyuan finally stood up.
At this moment, his Magical Power was almost completely recovered.
Even the injuries on his hands were no longer visible.
Concurrently, Feng Wanqing, Liu Hongyu, Ji Qingfei, and Ji Yunshan, having cleaned up the area, approached Ji Haoyuan.
After confirming Ji Haoyuan was unharmed, they handed him the Storage Bags they had sorted.
Then, Liu Hongyu and Feng Wanqing briefed Ji Haoyuan on the Golden Essence Stone mine they had just inspected here.
Including the Golden Essence Stones previously mined by those people, along with two pieces of Golden Essence Spirit Marrow, all placed in the Storage Bags they handed to Ji Haoyuan.
