Chapter 294 Battle (1)
[A health pill has been consumed]
[Health has been restored]
[A Qi replenishment pill has been consumed]
[QP has been restored]
Wei Jun didn't waste a second and jumped on the Brigadier who had turned his back to him. Wei Jun grabbed him from behind, locking his arms around his neck and choking him.
The Brigadier tired his best to release himself from Wei Jun's hold but no matter what he did, no matter how much he elbowed Wei Jun in his ribs or tried techniques to make Wei Jun let go, but Wei Jun was holding onto his neck like he was holding on to his dear like.
It wasn't long before the Brigadier realized there was no getting out of this. He finally relented to his fate and reached down to his core.
His body began to heat up and vibrate.
[Uhh… Host]
'What?!' Wei Jun asked.
[He's overloading his core]
[He's gonna blow up]
'Shit!' Wei Jun, however, didn't let go. For some reason, he knew he wouldn't be able to make it away in time so he resorted to another method. A surefire one.
Kill the Brigadier before he could kill himself.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
[Death Qi has been used]
[All stats +90%]
Wei Jun's strength almost doubled in an instant and he applied all the more pressure, blocking the oxygen to the Brigadier's brain. And as anticipated, it worked. The Brigadier soon died, before his body could blow up.
"Haa… Haa… Haa…" Wei Jun roughly panted as he let go of the dead Brigadier who was still very hot. In a literal sense. Wei Jun panted and panted, looking at the new notifications with a smile.
[Strength +12]
[Agility +5]
[Stamina +15]
[Qi +37]
The Brigadier was inherently strong from the looks of it. Wei Jun had killed the people on the same level as him before but he never gained that much. At least not at his current level. He had to kill someone higher ranked than him for such a gain but the Brigadier was indeed very strong.
Suddenly, as Wei Jun was resting, his senses tingled greatly, as if his death was inches away. Wei Jun didn't hesitate for even a second and rolled away from his spot. Just as he did, something landed on his spot, blowing everything in the vicinity, even him, away.
As Wei Jun crashed into the trees, he saw a notification that widened his eyes to the limit.
[HP -193]
Wei Jun's health was in the 200s and with just that one hit, he lost almost all of his health. And it wasn't even a direct hit.
[Dragon's tear will be activated as an emergency measure]
[Health will be restored at the expense of Qi]
Wei Jun's Qi went down and his health went up. Having the dragon's tear was the greatest blessing to him so far. Especially with his defense so low. Wei Jun looked at his assailant as his health went up in the blink of an eye. The Commander, who was fighting the wyvern was…
"You heretic!!!" was now looking at him with nothing but murder in his eyes.
Wei Jun moved, as hurriedly as he could. However, even he was a bit too late when he saw the foot of the Commander just in front of his face, faster than he could even finish his thought of moving.
He knew one thing for sure in that shot, very slow, time. His head would burst open like a piñata if he was hit by that and he doubted Death Qi would be able to save him from that.
Just as death was in front of his eyes…
Slam!!!
From the other side, the wyvern was as fast as well and kicked the commander away, the shockwave from their collision pushing Wei Jun away once again.
[HP -109]
The amount of health he lost from just their collision was enough to tell him he wouldn't be able to survive even for a full minute against these monsters. Even if he prepared as well as he did for all of his fights before, he still wouldn't be able to last more than a minute.
Only one word came to mind as he saw the two of them fight…
[Strong]
[Once one enters the realm of a grandmaster, they learn the truth of Qi]
[Not all of it]
[But the comprehension rate between a grandmaster and a master becomes incomprehensible]
[So even if a grandmaster has ten more points in stats than you]
[Don't attempt to fight]
[You will lose nine out of ten]
And Wei Jun had a feeling that one chance wouldn't be much different than death either. He couldn't wait to enter the realm of the grandmaster. After all, even if he survived this fight with the current quest protagonist, another strong man was coming to Yuan Yin City soon.
Someone from his past.
"You still haven't killed him yet? I killed mine long ago!" Wei Jun yelled as he stood up, his body still aching even though he was fully healed.
"Your opponent was a joke," The wyvern replied, while blocking a hit from the commander and said, "While this guy is strong. He knows how to defend against mana."
"What?" Wei Jun was confused. Wasn't mana a natural enemy of Qi?
[At a higher level a cultivator can develop barriers that can greatly resist mana]
'What?! Why didn't you tell me that before?'
[Because you're not strong yet]
[No reason to]
Wei Jun couldn't even argue with the obvious insult. He remained quiet and took cover as the shockwaves from the ongoing fight were too much for him at such a close distance. Even now, his health was chipping away slowly.
All he could do was hold on and get away from them as much as he could. Just as the wyverns were getting away from the ongoing fight, he decided to get as far away from them as he could.
But, just as he thought he was far enough, something blurred past him. As he turned his head slowly, he could see the wyvern on the ground, all bloodied and heaving a difficulty to stand up.
'Didn't you say it would be hard for a grandmaster to defeat him as well?' Wei Jun asked.
[I said it would be difficult]
[Look at his state]
Wei Jun turned to look at the commander. He was panting roughly, bloodied just like the wyvern. But at least he was standing. And not only standing, but he was also manipulating his Qi like Wei Jun to form something like spikes of Qi that were killing the nearby wyverns who were trying to support their leader.
Each wyvern was dying at a fast rate and soon enough, there were almost no wyverns left. However, that was enough of a timeframe for Wei Jun to run over to the wyvern.
He was bleeding badly and Wei Jun could see that his health was very low through the system.
[Feed him your blood]
'What?' Wei Jun asked.
[Also will the power of the dragons infuse with the blood]
'Why not just feed him a health pill?' Wei Jun asked.
[It won't help him]
Wei Jun didn't know what to do. So far, he wasn't able to do anything about the power of the dragons in his heart but this time, he just decided to go with the feeling as before. He slit his hand and opened the wyvern's mouth.
He also thought of healing himself with the dragon's power which worked and it instantly healed his hand. But in that short time frame, just a little, a smudge of the green dragon's power was added to the blood that entered the wyvern's mouth.
As soon as it did, the wyvern's eyes snapped open and he hurriedly moved, as if hitting Wei Jun, he placed his hand next to Wei Jun's head and stopped the strike that was heading for Wei Jun's head.
Wei Jun's eyes could not widen anymore when he saw death so close. Luckily, he was able to get through this one without harm. As for the wyvern, now as if full power he never had before, grabbed hold of the commander's hand and pulled him to himself.
Without hesitation, he punched the commander straight to his face which the commander couldn't defend against.
Thaa!!!
As if a balloon had just exploded, the commander's head shattered the same way. Only it was way, way messier.
"Haaa… Haaa… Haaa…" Relief washed over him, and Wei Jun settled down on the ground, breathing harder than before.
"Haha… Hahahahaha…" He soon began to laugh at the comical situation. He couldn't believe he made it out alive. And the worst part was…
"Now why don't we get out now? You need to come up with a good excuse as well." The wyvern said. Wei Jun noticed in return. Now that he had managed to survive, dying almost ten times, he still had to get past the situation on the outside.
He just hoped the sect master did everything according to the plan.
"Let's go." Wei Jun stood up and stored everybody in his inventory. After that, he extended his hand to the wyvern. The wyvern grabbed Wei Jun's hand and he began to glow. Soon enough, when the glow resided, the wyvern was nowhere to be seen. Instead, there was a mark on Wei Jun's hand.
A sort of tattoo of a red wyvern.
