Chapter 1223 - What’s Going on?!

Chapter 1223 What’s Going on?!

“Rumble, rumble, rumble…”

Above the Qinghai grassland, thunder roared across the sky.

“Whizz, whizz…”

Five figures flew over through the sky.

The whistling sounds they made as they flashed by were not as deafening as the thunderous claps in the distance.

“What violent collisions of internal Qi.”

Staring at the dark area, Master Numinous said with a dignified look, “It’s that guy surnamed Lu!”

“Is Qingshan fighting fiercely with the other party?”

Xi Fengling whispered her question.

“It’s John Doe!”

Suddenly, Diwu Mingchuan pointed forward.

Everyone gazed into the distance.

Over there…

Qingshan was standing by the battlefield.

Amid the thunderstorm, a battle raged between these four figures.

Unexpectedly, one of the figures was John Doe!

After all, the five of them were all gurus. They could see the three people fighting fiercely against John Doe were subordinates who were with Seventh Venerable in the ancient ruin.

They looked at the man behind the four figures.

There…

The man wrapped in a black fog emitted terrifying energy ripples continuously. They were shocked when they discovered that he was Seventh Venerable!

“One against four?”

Patriarch Qian stared in mute amazement.

What he saw was jaw-dropping — John Doe was fighting alone against Seventh Venerable and his three followers from Nirvana Organization.

“What the hell is going on?”

The other four also stood there, aghast at the sight.

“This brat’s aura… He is a guru!”

Suddenly, Master Numinous cried out in alarm.

Hearing his words…

One after another, the other four probed and found the aura John Doe emitted was really that of a guru!

“How is this possible?”

“Didn’t this kid just break through and become a Half-step Guru? How could he suddenly become a guru in the blink of an eye?”

“John Doe is a guru? And he is not at a disadvantage even when fighting against four opponents simultaneously!”

“The two dead bodies on the ground were gurus from Nirvana Organization.”

Everyone looked intently at them.

The two men were indeed two gurus under Seventh Venerable’s command.

But the two gurus had already turned into corpses!

That was to say…

Before they arrived, John Doe had already finished off two gurus.

The moment they realized this…

The four patriarchs and Master Numinous were stunned.

They were all gurus, so they knew very well how challenging it was to kill a guru. Under normal circumstances, as long as gurus had no intention of bringing about their destruction, others could hardly take their lives.

What was more horrifying was that each of the corpses had a large hole in the chest!

Obviously, John Doe did it.

To their astonishment, John Doe’s punch could go through a guru’s chest!

The more they looked at the appalling scene, the more amazed they became.

While still in a state of astonishment, they all sped up and rushed forward to see what was going on with John Doe.

The five of them approached him.

“Pop!”

Another crisp sound of something breaking could be heard.

They whirled around to see what was happening.

Under the storm of thunderclouds and lightning, John Doe quickly dodged the fierce attacks of the three gurus and delivered a punch, which went through another guru’s heart!

In the distance, Seventh Venerable instantly tensed up.

He didn’t expect that at all.

While he fended off a blow with one palm strike, John Doe found an opportunity to hit someone else.

“Damn it!”

There came an angry shout.

Seeing the four patriarchs and Master Numinous coming, Seventh Venerable narrowed his eyes as he simmered with rage. Disregarding the thunderclouds and dark clouds, he rushed madly at John Doe, trying to seize the last chance to slay John Doe on the spot.

But right at this moment…

“Lu, let’s see how you can escape today!”

Master Numinous’s voice sounded.

The five gurus rushed into the battlefield at full speed.

Seventh Venerable’s face darkened. He ignored them as he focused totally on John Doe.

Fang Qiu was not stupid.

He immediately flew backward and approached the four patriarchs.

After exerting the strength of a guru, he annihilated three gurus in the previous fierce battle. But this time, it was different.

Fang Qiu had consumed a large amount of internal Qi.

Moreover…

The sparkling black ball that burst forth from Seventh Venerable appeared particularly frightening. In an emergency, with his strength at the guru level, Fang Qiu instantly took in the Qi of Heaven and Earth within a kilometer around him, plus part of the Qi of Heaven and Earth in his body. Otherwise, he might not have been able to withstand his opponent’s mighty force.

Given this reality…

Fang Qiu knew perfectly well that if he went on consuming his power like this, the other party would find a chance to attack. Since his helpers had arrived, he didn’t need to go all out.

There was no doubt about it.

When Fang Qiu retreated toward the four patriarchs, Seventh Venerable’s face grew darker.

“Go and deal with his subordinates. Leave this guy surnamed Lu to me!”

After calling out his arrangements, Master Numinous rushed before the others to attack Seventh Venerable.

Here…

The four patriarchs didn’t hesitate.

They immediately surrounded the two gurus who closely pursued John Doe.

In the next moment…

A bunch of top fighters was locked in fierce combat!

Undoubtedly…

Once the battle started, John Doe’s side showed overwhelming superiority.

In the case of five against one, John Doe wiped out three. How could the remaining two people make any difference?

The group oppressed John Doe and Qingshan. However, with the arrival of the four patriarchs, this group was outnumbered by the enemy. In the crazy siege, one of them had no time to react, and Fang Qiu’s strike immediately pierced through his chest.

On the other side…

The last person turned around and tried to run for his life.

As a result, a whip lashed against him and directly wrapped around his ankles. When he was pulled back, the four patriarchs pounced on him at the same time, each contributing a strike.

When he was bombarded by four blows, the man hadn’t yet decided how to defend himself. His eyes rolled back, and he lost his life!

So far…

Of the six gurus, five were eliminated.

The only one left was Seventh Venerable, who was in a battle with Master Numinous!

At this moment…

Seventh Venerable’s face suddenly clouded over with a dark expression.

Originally…

He was ready to take some people to complete the plan in Africo. Everything had been arranged, but Qingshan abruptly appeared in Wulin. After that, he postponed the Africo plan for a while because he wanted to mess Wulin up by using this unforeseen incident.

Against all his expectations…

In the end, he had to face such a nasty outcome.

His men were all dead.

Even he was completely surrounded and escape was impossible.

“Attack together and kill him!”

Seeing that Seventh Venerable was the only one left, Diwu Mingchuan shouted and charged headlong toward him with everyone else. Even Qingshan, who had been recovering nearby, also rushed up to fight.

“You want to kill me?”

Seventh Venerable roared furiously when he saw himself surrounded by seven of them. An enormous amount of energy suddenly erupted from him.

“Does he still have internal Qi?”

All of them were surprised.

His previous move required a large amount of internal Qi.

Everyone was surprised that Seventh Venerable could exert such vigorous Qi power even after that formidable move.

The stream of Qi power surged up…

A terrifying wave of internal Qi exploded from Seventh Venerable, which forced his seven enemies who were tightening the net around him to take a step back.

When Seventh Venerable made them back off…

Once again, he produced an electrifying burst of speed and charged toward Fang Qiu.

In the past, Seventh Venerable had held John Doe in contempt.

Even though he had heard many times that John Doe killed members of the organization, Seventh Venerable didn’t take him seriously at all. One reason was that those who had died at John Doe’s hands were all below the level of a guru. To put it bluntly, they were just subordinates in Nirvana Organization.

For another reason, he was a guru, but John Doe wasn’t.

Therefore, he looked down on John Doe.

But today, when he saw John Doe’s tremendous power erupting and how he slaughtered four gurus in a row, he finally awoke to the fact.

“This young man in Huaxia Wulin was not as simple as he appeared.

“He was an overwhelming expert who had fathomless power.

“Even as a Venerable, he couldn’t slay a guru with such ease. But John Doe butchered the gurus at will as if they were straw dogs!

“His strength was terrifying!

“For the sake of Nirvana…

“Even if he had to die, he must drag John Doe down with him.”

With this in mind, Seventh Venerable raced toward John Doe.

But right at this moment…

“Great Hand of Destruction!”

Fang Qiu seemed to have expected this. Before the storm of thunderclouds ceased, he raised his right hand, gathered the Qi of Heaven and Earth within a kilometer before him, and slammed his palm toward Seventh Venerable who was dashing toward him.

There…

“Golden Light Spell!”

Master Numinous let out a rock-splitting shout. Like a calm elder monk without worldly worries, he put his palms together devoutly and unleashed his palm attack with a jerk.

A minimal golden character, ‘Wan’ immediately erupted from his palm, which shot up to Seventh Venerable like a bullet.

On the other side…

The four patriarchs made their moves at the same time.

Qingshan brandished his long stick and solidified a stick shadow, which smashed down immediately.

Seeing this…

Seventh Venerable gritted his teeth as he found himself under attack from all sides. If he dodged his enemy from one side, he would get hit by his enemies from other directions. So, he could only meet the challenge head-on.

“Boom!”

The black fog around him suddenly turned into black flames, which engulfed him. At the same time, a powerful aura emerged and crashed against John Doe’s Great Hand of Destruction.

“Pow!”

There was a crisp sound.

Unexpectedly, Seventh Venerable shattered the Great Hand of Destruction.

Fang Qiu was not surprised.

After all, this time around, his Great Hand of Destruction didn’t have much power.

He had absorbed the Qi of Heaven and Earth within a thousand meters once. This time, the Qi of Heaven and Earth had only flowed back a little. Therefore, the Great Hand of Destruction that he accumulated at this moment wasn’t in its most potent state. In contrast, Seventh Venerable ran at him with all his might.

Unexpectedly…

When Seventh Venerable blocked the Great Hand of Destruction, Fang Qiu’s right hand moved again.

“Great Hand of Formlessness!”

With a bellow, Fang Qiu waved his hand to deliver another blow.

But right at this moment…

“Hide!”

Seven Venerables, who had found an opening in their attacks from all directions, immediately turned into a cloud of black mist and fled quickly into the distance.

He wanted to fight to the death and drag John Doe down with him.

However, he didn’t expect that he would be able to block John Doe’s attack with such ease. Since he had a way out, why should he continue risking his life?

Seventh Venerable fled all of a sudden, which surprised everyone.

“Trying to escape?”

Fang Qiu snorted coldly, got ready, and immediately chased after him at full speed.

Here…

Master Numinous, the four patriarchs, and Qingshan also followed him in close pursuit.

However, John Doe’s speed far exceeded theirs, and everyone was stunned again!
