Chapter 724: Star-shattering Finger
In the mirror images of the Five Command Centers, although the specific scene couldn't be made out clearly, the starry brightness was quite strong, so the outlines of the relevant personnel were still visible.
Seeing a group of people's rapid flight suddenly disrupted and stopped, they all widened their eyes to take a close look, and soon saw the interceptor who abruptly appeared in the image.
The features weren't clear, but that style—without battle armor, a black cloak wrapped around white clothes—made it instantly obvious who it was.
"Su Jikuan!" Manxi was shocked and furious, shouting, "This scoundrel didn't go to the other side, he used an eye-blocking skill."
Mulan Jin's face also changed drastically, fearing what they had anticipated. He was very worried about his daughter's safety now; with Su Jikuan daring to come directly, he wasn't sure if Li Hongjiu could stop him. He quickly pulled out a Mother-child Talisman, unsure who he was trying to contact.
Nanshan Commander, recognizing the uninvited guest in the mirror image, also gritted his teeth, muttering, "Su Jikuan is deceiving!"
There's concern whether the younger disciple can hold him off, as well as worrying about whether those Tokens would fall into the wrong hands.
He now hoped Luo Que would appear promptly. Thinking of this, he quickly transmitted to Pu Gong, "Give Luo Que their current precise location; she must see the message, intentionally feigning ignorance."
"Alright." Pu Gong quickly responded and acted accordingly.
Beiju Team Commander Lan She smiled without further hiding it. Given the location of other top cards on the Mountain River Map, it was already too late to seize them now.
Of course, he also worried whether Su Jikuan could be a match for Li Hongjiu.
And there's the concern of deception since carrying Feng Yin's Token and running around was suspicious, at least inconsistent with Shi Chun's cunning. Hopefully, it was indeed due to Li Hongjiu's confidence, being bold because of his superior skills.
The East Victory and West Niu Commanders felt complex emotions seeing this scene, hoping for Li Hongjiu's defeat, yet not wanting Su Jikuan to gain the advantage, nor wishing to see Su Jikuan stronger than Feng Yin and Yan Zhili.
Suddenly unplanned changes, Wu Jinliang and others, if possessing Magical Treasures, also showed their trump card treasures defensively.
Upon hearing Li Hongjiu's suggestion to leave first, Wu Jinliang nodded repeatedly; naturally, they should leave first, already trembling at the mention of Su Jikuan's name.
No choice, resonant with the notorious Divine Sect, his dazzling brilliance alike the sun, added to Su Jikuan's reputation as the top under Heavenly Immortal, according to the information provided from Mulan Jin's side, stating he had already practiced the Divine Sect's 'Star-shattering Finger.'
This Divine Skill, as the name suggests, legendary in Cultivation to the 'Divine Finger' realm, could shatter stars with a flick, hence named 'Star-shattering Finger,' an Ancient Divine Power.
Rumored that this skill couldn't be cultivated by some Heavenly Immortal Cultivators within Divine Sect, and throughout history, those who mastered it under the Heavenly Immortal Cultivation were scarce, with Su Jikuan being the only one nowadays.
Thus, with Su Jikuan's personal arrival, the previous strike wasn't really a sneak attack; though he hadn't cultivated the skill to the 'Divine Finger' realm, killing with a flick was effortless, so his earlier action was at most greeting, rather gentlemanly.
"Be careful then." Wu Jinliang left the words and called out to the group behind him, "Let's go."
He was the first to run, the group from Mingshan Sect immediately followed, including Tong Mingshan's Earth Immortal Level experts.
Their coordinated responses were so uniform and quick, leaving Chai Wenwu and Mulan Qingqing taken aback. Once they processed this, they quickly turned around and gave chase.
Mulan Qingqing's response was slower, as a disciple of Su Yuan Sect, fleeing wasn't habitual.
However, she was faster in flight than Old Chai, quickly catching up.
Seeing Chai Wenwu turning nervously, fearful of being last while escaping, he immediately cracked open his mouth and wailed, "Help me!"
Mulan Qingqing furrowed her brows, not knowing why the old man was shouting nonsense, yelling 'help' without anything happening yet.
Fortunately, her heart was kind, she released the Wind Scale and swept him away together.
Chai Wenwu wiped his forehead, quickly flattering, "The lady is kind-hearted, definitely will erect a longevity plaque for you in the future."
Meanwhile, continually turning back to look.
Confronting Li Hongjiu, Su Jikuan snorted coldly, "Now that I've arrived, do you think you can escape?"
He didn't just come to fight; how could he not seize those Tokens in the Battle of Great Pardon?
Li Hongjiu promptly said, "The Tokens are all on me, they're irrelevant to them."
In reply, Su Jikuan indeed expressed no doubt, considering the other's talents as a generation's elite, having straightforward character and noble quality, he shouldn't lie blatantly with open eyes.
Thus no longer concerned with the escaping people, he turned into a shadow shooting directly at Li Hongjiu, having the momentum of divine massacre, demon destruction.
Li Hongjiu, already raising fingers ready before himself, didn't dodge or avoid, slightly moving his brows, swiftly looking back at Mulan Qingqing's departing figure.
Simultaneously, Su Jikuan's eyes flickered, his whole person quickly flipping horizontally to dodge.
A stream of light flashed in an instant, a hazy Silver Radiance Knight appeared from nowhere, a swift sword strike nearly severing Su Jikuan's neck.
Fortunately Su Jikuan reacted fast, but the passing sword edge still left a blood mark on his neck.
The Silver Radiance Knight vanished rapidly after appearing, yet its radiant figure was exceptionally conspicuous in the night, clearly visible in the mirror image of the Five Command Centers.
Beiju Commander Lan She slightly clenched his fist, speaking in a deep voice, "The Magic Soldier of Su Yuan Sect's 'Soldier Resolution Technique'!"
Heavenly Court Team Commander Manxi turned to look at Mulan Jin, knowing this person should be familiar with the move.
