Chapter 769: Chapter 416: Self-Destruct_2 Chapter 769: Chapter 416: Self-Destruct_2 And he was at the Mid Stage Golden Core himself, with an aptitude for escaping that was still quite remarkable. Recall the ti after the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm ended; he had faced the pursuit of Mid Stage Golden Core cultivator Song Hanchun and the two brothers of the Jin Family.
Under such circumstances, he had also managed to escape.
Although the current situation was even worse, with opponents that were clearly a notch stronger, if Ding Yongjin desperately blocked them for a mont, once he broke out of the encirclent, there was still a chance to evade the pursuit of Han Hu and the others.
It could be said that he was still at the peak of his strength, and he still harbored a sliver of hope for escape.
Besides, anyone who managed to cultivate to his realm at the age of over four hundred years could not possibly claim to be unafraid of death.
Given even a slight hope of survival, he would not give up the opportunity.
Thus, Luo Anzhong didn’t speak to persuade; he rely responded with a ssage assuring Ding Yongjin that if he was lucky enough to survive, he would certainly take care of his descendants and disciples and would not let him die in vain.
...
Hearing Luo Anzhong’s reply, Ding Yongjin’s resolve to fight back grew even firr without any worries left behind.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The rampant sound of Sword Qi pulled Luo Anzhong and company back to reality.
At that mont, after exchanging a glance, Luo Anzhong leaped into the air and shot towards the direction of Jin Weishan at an unbelievably fast speed.
At the sa ti, the Magical Treasure in his hand flashed with light, and the Dalian Attack soared over from above his head.
Not feeling assured after doing all this, he spontaneously activated several Third Order Defense Talismans, transforming them into a skyful of sword rain pouring down toward Jin Weishan.
Clearly, Luo Anzhong was giving his all at this mont, sparing no expense in using every treasure he could to consu a major part of them.
He knew very well that Jin Weishan had once joined forces with Song Hanchun to pursue him, so he was quite familiar with Jin Weishan’s strength.
Although they both were at the Mid Stage Golden Core realm, as a cultivator from the Wei Kingdom who had reached the Mid Stage Golden Core Realm over a hundred years ago, his strength was considerable.
If he fought with all his might, breaking through Jin Weishan’s interception was not an impossibility.
Therefore, he chose his target at the first opportunity and imdiately put his plan into action.
Such an action caught Jin Weishan completely off guard.
But Jin Weishan was also aware that it wasn’t just him here; Zhao Hongsheng and Han Hu had cultivation at the Late Stage Golden Core realm, and Yang Jun from the Golden Sword Sect, though at the Mid Stage Golden Core realm, was not weak either.
He didn’t need to risk his life; he just needed to delay slightly for a mont.
As soon as any one of them caught up, Luo Anzhong, no matter how strong, would definitely be unable to escape.
Realizing this, Jin Weishan wore an expression of indifference and also erupted with a large amount of attacks, colliding head-on with Luo Anzhong’s attacks.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The sky bellowed with explosions, lighting up the whole area with bright flashes, and the fire engulfed the entire landscape.
In that brief mont, for so unknown reason, Luo Anzhong’s speed suddenly increased dramatically, unexpectedly appearing right above Jin Weishan’s head.
By the ti Jin Weishan reacted, Luo Anzhong’s Magical Treasure had already descended upon his head, the distance between them no more than a few zhang.
For a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, such a distance could be covered in the span of a breath.
But now, he was too late to defend and could only brace himself for the impact.
If he was lucky, he might survive.
But if he was unlucky, it was highly likely he would et his end here.
In a state of panic, Jin Weishan rushed to punch out, the powerful force of his physical strength bursting from his fist, clashing directly with Luo Anzhong’s Magical Treasure.
“Bang…”
Following the explosion, a scream was heard soon after.
Looking towards the source of the scream, Jin Weishan was seen falling from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Even while still in midair, it was evident that his entire arm had been torn off, a gaping hole at his shoulder where white bones were faintly visible, and blood had already spilled on the ground, staining a large area red.
In the surprise attack by Luo Anzhong, Jin Weishan could only hastily defend.
This passive counterattack also cost him dearly, causing one of his arms to be completely shattered by the Magical Treasure and severing his ridians.
With one arm completely disabled, his ridians cut off, and being severely injured by the blow, his strength was greatly diminished.
With such a severe injury, even as a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, there was no chance of recovery without the aid of heaven-defying treasures.
The elixirs capable of regenerating an amputated arm were all at least of the Fourth Order, and naturally occurring treasures that could heal upon consumption were equally valuable, ranking as Fourth Tier items.
Even with the resources of the Blood Red Alliance, obtaining Fourth Order Elixirs or Fourth Order Spiritual dicines and Fruits was not an easy task.
Even if obtained, such treasures would inevitably be in the hands of Nascent Soul Cultivators, reserved for extrely severe injuries before one would be willing to use them.
And even though Jin Weishan ca from the Blood Red Alliance and they happened to possess such treasures, with his cultivation and status, it would be difficult to obtain such sacred dicine for healing without so extraordinary rit.
Under these circumstances, Jin Weishan’s arm was likely irrecoverable.
Without this arm, even if he managed to save his life and heal his other wounds, his strength would probably be hard-pressed to reach 80% of its peak.
One could say that Luo Anzhong’s strike had directly knocked him down a level in both realm and strength, leaving him not much stronger than an ordinary Early Stage Golden Core Cultivator.
However, at the mont, Jin Weishan was heavily injured and unconscious, far from considering these matters.
Once Luo Anzhong achieved his goal, he shot out towards the exterior the mont Jin Weishan scread, his speed fast like lightning.
In fact, he had the chance to strike again, to seize the opportunity to take Jin Weishan’s life.
But he didn’t do that; instead, he flew forward without hesitation, seeking a sliver of chance for himself.
In his eyes, even if he killed Jin Weishan, he would inevitably be delayed.
By the ti Zhao Hongsheng and the others reacted, the hope of escaping would be utterly gone.
His own life was far more valuable than Jin Weishan’s, so why would he trade life for life?
Recognizing this, Luo Anzhong had no intention of lingering and was solely focused on escaping the pursuit.
Luo Anzhong’s action of fleeing thoroughly infuriated Zhao Hongsheng.
At that mont, Zhao Hongsheng was so distance away from Luo Anzhong and was also attacking Ding Yongjin.
Along with him, Han Hu and Yang Jun of the Golden Sword Sect were likewise positioned, being only dozens of feet away from Ding Yongjin.
At such a close distance, Ding Yongjin had no chance of escape and no possibility of survival.
At this mont, Zhao Hongsheng ceased his attack on Ding Yongjin and instead turned to chase in the direction of Luo Anzhong.
In his eyes, Luo Anzhong had severely injured a mber of the Blood Red Alliance right under his nose, dealing a heavy blow to Zhao Hongsheng’s face.
As a result, Zhao Hongsheng was completely enraged and disregarded the weaker Ding Yongjin.
This action of his was entirely within Ding Yongjin’s expectations.
At this ti, Ding Yongjin suddenly burst into laughter, appearing quite eerie.
His deanor caused Zhao Hongsheng and the others to frown deeply, as if they had thought of sothing terrifying.
“This bastard is going to self-detonate his Golden Core, retreat quickly!”
In an instant, Zhao Hongsheng exclaid in shock and imdiately retreated.
The other two, Han Hu included, being even closer to Ding Yongjin, at less than a hundred feet away, could have taken his life at any mont.
But they as well halted their advancent and quickly retreated.
They were well aware that a Golden Core self-detonation was a Golden Core Cultivator’s ultimate card, with extrely formidable killing power. Even the self-detonation of an Early Stage Golden Core Cultivator was stronger than the attacks of a Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, and even Late Stage Golden Core Cultivators would have to be cautious in dealing with it.
Yet, such a terrifying move was a one-ti opportunity for every Golden Core Cultivator.
Under normal circumstances, a Golden Core Cultivator would never resort to such a retaliatory asure unless it was absolutely necessary.
Han Hu and the other person dared not take the situation lightly, nor take risks, but could only retreat as fast as possible to save their lives.
Ding Yongjin obviously understood his predicant and was very decisive, knowing resistance was unlikely to be effective. It was better to aid Luo Anzhong, delay the three of them for a while, and allow Luo Anzhong to get as far away as possible.
With this goal in mind, Ding Yongjin did not hesitate.
At this mont, his face was extrely red, and spiritual energy surged madly into his Sky Spirit Cover.
After one breath, the energy inside his Golden Core seed to reach a limit, unable to accumulate any more energy.
At this point, Ding Yongjin, with a face full of madness, detonated his Golden Core without any hesitation.
