Chapter 673 Shattering the Treasure to Escape (1)
A black shadow flashed past.
The sharp, broken-winged spear instantly pierced through the heart of the statue.
Then, Jiang Li followed closely behind. His fingers turned black as he grabbed the shoulders of the statue.
However, it was not enough. His shoulder wriggled and two more arms grew out. His fingers were also black, and sharp mosquito mouthpieces reached out from his nails.
!!
As he exerted strength, four hands and twenty mouthpieces slowly stabbed into the shoulders of the statue and the pair of angry eyes.
The other experts who rushed up probably did not dare to face the City God statue head-on. They flashed behind the statue and used their methods to hit it.
Jiang Li could sense that the statue close by was using some destructive method to extract all the remaining power in the hall.
The energy on the palms also became more and more terrifying.
However, he did not retreat. His mouth tilted as he bit the broken wing spear that was stabbed into the heart of the City God’s statue. Then, he circulated his talent skill, Spirit Essence Absorption!
This was a terrifying talent that originated from the Primordial Beast. It was ruthless when used on people, and when used on artifacts, the effect was even more outstanding.
As Jiang Li exerted strength, the energy reaction on the statue that was originally accumulating strength did not increase but decreased.
The two golden palms that seemed to be about to take someone’s life began to weaken.
However, they still could not stop the attack.
The City God’s left hand suddenly left the statue’s main body and attacked suicidally.
Jiang Li’s entire body tensed up as he prepared to receive the attack. In the end, the pain he imagined did not come. The terrifying palm flew past Jiang Li and smashed into the crowd on the left.
The three Earth-rank defensive artifacts placed at the front were directly destroyed. The Earth Immortals who formed an array behind were sent flying far away. More than half of them suffered heavy injuries that could not be healed in a hundred years.
More than ten Earth Immortals at the front were killed by this!
Concubine Yun, who was presiding over the defense in this direction, retreated more than a hundred feet and collided with the wall, the corners of her mouth turning red.
The experts from the other direction hurriedly dispersed and helped set up defenses.
Otherwise, if they did not have any defense and were directly attacked at that level, the number of casualties would probably increase by ten times.
Fortunately, the right hand of the statue did not pursue and attack. Instead, it slowly turned… towards Jiang Li who was crazily plundering the spiritual qi in front of the statue!
That palm strike earlier had directly shattered several Earth-rank artifacts, killed more than ten Earth Immortals, and injured Concubine Yun!
If such a powerful attack was only targeted at one person, what effect would it have? It was simply unimaginable!
However, Jiang Li still did not retreat. Instead, he worked even harder to seize the spiritual qi of the priceless artifact.
In any case, the current him had an undying body. Those heavy injuries that could not be healed in a hundred years could only last five seconds on him.
Even if he was slapped, at most, it would only hurt for a short period of time. Jiang Li, who was used to cheating, only felt a little flustered.
However, the opportunity to absorb the spiritual qi of a Heaven-rank artifact was hard to come by. He did not plan to let it go!
One breath, two breaths, three breaths…
As he circulated the Spirit Essence Absorption to the limit, his eyes turned to the other side and stared at the glowing hand.
A drop of cold sweat rolled down Jiang Li’s forehead and smashed onto the ground.
Alright, although he knew that he would not die, he was still very nervous.
After all, he had seen the power of this hand. It was enough to crush him into a pancake.
However, as time passed, the palm did not fall. The light on it flickered continuously and gradually extinguished.
This was because he had absorbed too much power and could not unleash it?
Right when Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief, the crack on the statue in front of him finally cracked to the bottom.
In the next moment, endless energy suddenly blossomed in front of him.
The City God statue in front of him actually exploded in front of him!
How gorgeous would it be if the remaining power of a Heaven-rank artifact erupted in an instant?
Perhaps most people in the cultivation world would not have the chance to see such a scene.
However, Jiang Li saw it in the nearest VIP spot.
He pressed his face against it and enjoyed the unique force.
If others asked him how he felt, Jiang Li would recall carefully and say very responsibly that he actually did not feel any obvious pain. His entire body was only enveloped by a wave of heat, and then his entire body felt light and lost all senses.
That was because the skin on Jiang Li’s entire body had evaporated completely at the first moment.
Fortunately, the strength of the dark red muscles and the bones filled with wooden patterns were also extremely exaggerated. Even under such a vile impact, they could still remain intact.
Jiang Li was blasted flying, and the entire City God’s Hall collapsed at the same time, exploding into pieces that filled the sky.
Hundreds of streaks of light flew out and smashed in all directions.
The blood of the top experts of the cultivation world of the Eastern Region had just spat out when it evaporated into nothingness.
They were not as close to the core of the explosion as Jiang Li and had even made defensive preparations in advance.
However, no matter what, it was an explosion inside the City God’s Hall. The distance was not far.
Even if they did not endure 100% of it, they would definitely not be able to escape.
