My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death
Chapter 729 - 702: Spoils of WarThe Mahayana Esteemed One was thoroughly panicked; the worst possible situation had occurred.
He had initially planned to suppress these three at the Integration Stage, secure the Immortal Instrument, and immediately teleport back to their Chamber of Commerce Headquarters, where several Mahayana Esteemed Ones were stationed.
As long as he could return, regardless of whether the Immortal Instrument was for his own use, the benefits he would gain would undoubtedly be significant.
What he never expected was how challenging it would be to suppress these three at the Integration Stage, to the point where there was even a chance they could counter-attack.
"Don't be so disheartened, since we can't escape, let's fight with all we have. At least you still have a glimmer of hope."
Xiong Li once again brandished the Sounding Gold Giant Hammer and charged towards the Mahayana Esteemed One.
The battle continued, and a hint of determination appeared in the eyes of the Mahayana Esteemed One.
However, as the battle progressed, the look on the face of the Mahayana Esteemed One gradually descended into despair.
Exhaustive pulling and defending left him only able to strike at Xiong Li using his Divine Abilities and Dao Tools, but they seemed to have no effect whatsoever.
The deadly attacks from Shadow Sting, combined with the occasional sword array from Han Feiyu, truly put the Mahayana Esteemed One in physical and mental fatigue.
Many years had passed, and even in battles against the Demon Clan he had never felt so suffocated. He felt a surge of blood rush to his chest, but he couldn't spit it out nor swallow it down.
At this moment, the three of them became even more cautious. They knew that they were in a desperate struggle against a cornered beast.
The danger usually intensifies towards the end of such situations, so all three of them were extremely careful. The few minor flaws deliberately exposed by the Mahayana Esteemed One were disregarded by all three of them.
The Giant Hammer in the hands of Xiong Li was once again swung towards the Mahayana Esteemed One.
A cracking sound was heard as the defensive Dao device protecting the Mahayana Esteemed One reached its limit, and the protective shield shattered.
The Giant Hammer was smashed fiercely into the chest of the Mahayana Esteemed One.
The Mahayana Esteemed One turned into a falling star, gliding into the distance.
At the moment the Esteemed One was hit away, the three men began to argue violently.
"Good opportunity, do we attack!" Shadow Sting asked.
"Play it safe, we just received information on the Mahayana Esteemed One, he still has a defensive Dao Tool." Han Feiyu responded.
"I feel like there's a catch, play it safe!" Xiong Li finally decided.
The body of the Mahayana Esteemed One smashed directly into a small broken pavilion, then lay there looking at the sky, his eyes full of disappointment.
"Are they all thousand-year-old foxes? They're so patient!"
Watching his enticing battle strategy fail, the despair of the Mahayana Esteemed One increased.
"Interesting, their combat experience and strategy are really top-notch." Xu Fan praised.
"What a brilliant fight." Xu Gang remarked from the sideline, a gleam of fighting spirit flashing in his eyes. Having guarded the Sect for many years, he hadn't fought in a long time.
"If you're itching for a fight, let them bring back the True Spirit of the Esteemed One, construct a simulated battlefield, and you can go in to fight, to see if you alone can suppress the Esteemed One." Xu Fan suggested.
"I am just envious that they get to fight with all of their might. As for the Esteemed One, he wouldn't last long under my hands." Xu Gang confidently replied. His current cultivation level was at the pinnacle of the Integration Stage, and his understanding of the Five-Element Path was close to reaching the realm of natural Dao.
In previous years, Xu Fan was always in a deep sleep and Xu Gang stayed by his side cultivating, barely making any moves in the eyes of Hidden Spirit Sect disciples.
"Why don't we have a sparring match?" Xu Fan suggested, seeing his senior disciple itching for a fight.
Xu Gang instinctively shook his head, he understood the difference between fighting and being tortured.
"Every time Master makes a move, it affects my Dao Heart, it's better not to spar." Xu Gang refused, shaking his head.
The other disciples also began to laugh.
"Well, that Esteemed One is panicked, the fight should hbe over soon~" Xu Fan glanced at the light curtain and said.
Sure enough, with a minor coordination between the trio, the Mahayana Esteemed One was directly shot into the sky by Xiong Li's heavy hammer.
The Shadow Sting, which was already in the air to catch the attack, easily thrust the short sword into the Esteemed One at the Mahayana level's dantian.
The short sword of the Shadow Sting directly destroyed the Esteemed One's dantian, forcing out the True Spirit hidden within.
Seeing this, the three of them simultaneously took a deep breath, knowing that they had won the battle.
The True Spirit of the Esteemed One, seeing that the trio had no intention of capturing him, immediately attempted to break through the void and escape.
You should know, True Spirit can navigate spaces much better than the physical body.
But the Esteemed One, now in the form of a True Spirit, failed again.
"Ah!!!"
"You didn't even leave me a chance to survive. Then, die with me!!"
The normally greenish True Spirit suddenly swelled up, turning red and looking like it would explode at any moment.
All Xiong Li and the others did was casually observe him without showing much reaction.
Because cleaning up the battlefield was Pu Tao's job, and it was done quickly and effectively.
At that moment, a net appeared in the void, capturing the True Spirit of the Esteemed One and making it disappear.
All the Space Rings and Magical Treasures on the Esteemed One then materialized in front of the trio.
"Time to collect the spoils~" Shadow Sting said with a smile as he looked at the Space Rings floating before them, feeling that he was one step closer to the Immortal Instruments.
"Senior Brother, how much more do you need to exchange your information?" Shadow Sting asked.
"After collecting for so many years, I've only managed to get about 30%. Including these items, I should be barely at 40%." Xiong Li also laughed. The technique he was cultivating was extremely resource-consuming. Having saved up this much after so many years was already quite an achievement.
The two of them automatically ignored Han Feiyu, as it was rumored within the Sect.
It was said that Han Feiyu had presented the Sect with a heavenly treasure and was greatly rewarded by the Great Master. He had piles of Dao Tools and several Immortal Instruments, so he was automatically excluded from such conversations.
"Junior Fellow, shouldn't you give me the Immortal Instrument that you got from the Space Ring blind box?" Shadow Sting said cheerfully.
"Give it to you, my ass!" Han Feiyu glared at Shadow Sting.
"You forgot our agreement just now, from now on, you have to call me Brother Han."
"But isn't it just that no good items have been opened yet? Or did you deliberately put those things into the Space Rings, didn't you?" said Shadow Sting with a smile.
"How could you get so many things if I didn't put them in there?" Han Feiyu said and opened all the Space Rings of the Esteemed One one by one.
All kinds of Spiritual Treasures, medicines, mines, Magical Treasures and Exotic Treasures piled up like a small hill in no time.
"Just based on these items, you should call me Brother Han now," Han Feiyu said, looking at the few Dao Tools.
"What are you talking about? Hurry up and divide the spoils."
"According to the old rules, the Senior Brother takes forty percent, and the rest is shared equally between us," said Shadow Sting, changing the topic.
"Let's split it evenly. This battle was really exhilarating." Xiong Li glanced at the loot and didn't pay much attention to it.
What really concerned him were the flaws he had exposed in battle and the completion rate of the Sect task.
"The main attacker gets forty percent, the rules can't be changed," said Han Feiyu. He wasn't too concerned about these things either. The total value might not even be as much as half an Immortal Instrument.
"Alright, let's go with this."
"Pu Tao, convert my share of the spoils into Points," said Xiong Li.
"Same for me~"
"And me too~"
A teleportation array appeared beneath the pile of spoils, which were finally all teleported into the treasury of the Hidden Spirit Sect.
