I Can Use Myriad Divine Abilities-Chapter 299: Admitting Defeat

Crack!

The palms of Li Wanlong’s drooping hands simultaneously split open, revealing deep bone-visible wounds.

These wounds quickly spread up his arms, crisscrossing densely, yet not a drop of blood flowed out.

The Invincible Golden Body of this Tier Five powerhouse was indeed extremely formidable, but it still suffered some damage during the recent clash with Zhang Yuan, though it didn’t manifest at the time.

If Li Wanlong were still alive, the hidden injuries from the Sword Aura penetrating his flesh wouldn’t matter much and would quickly recover.

But he had already fallen, and the hidden injuries erupted immediately!

Zhang Yuan leapt up from the ground, spitting out another mouthful of blood.

Looking at the powerful enemy, as tough as a tiger even in death, he felt a genuine sense of admiration.

Li Wanlong fought empty-handed, yet faced Zhang Yuan, who wielded the General-Slaying Saber and had augmented his strength, agility, and Intermediate Sword Technique Profound Communication more than tenfold, with ease.

His defensive abilities were terrifyingly strong!

If not for Zhang Yuan deliberately showing a flaw at the crucial moment, leading Li Wanlong to mistakenly believe he could no longer fight, he might not have managed to kill him with the Red Blood Divine Soldiers.

The intuition of a Tier Five powerhouse is extremely sharp; success in ambushing them is not easily achieved!

But regardless, in the end, it was still Zhang Yuan who won the victory.

"Hurry up!"

"Over here!"

At this moment, Zhang Yuan’s peripheral vision caught sight of the elite forces of the Li Family rushing out from the woods not far away.

This included Li Changxing and Li Changgeng, two Tier Four experts!

He gave a cold smile, quickly retrieved the Iron-Clad Bow previously dropped on the ground, and with a few bounds, disappeared into the nearby forest, vanishing without a trace.

Flap-flap-flap! 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Just as Zhang Yuan was slipping into the woods, the Red-eyed Crow suddenly descended from the sky, breaking through the canopy, and dropped the Red Blood Saber clutched in its talons.

Zhang Yuan raised his head and mouth, swallowing the divine weapon that had just fallen into his stomach.

Even though he had already mastered the Divine Control Technique,

to ensure the Red Blood Saber’s maximum killing power, he had used the same method he once employed against Yan Wushuang when he killed Li Wanlong just now.

Additionally, this was to prevent the divine weapon from being exposed!

After the Red Blood Saber returned to the Dantian, Zhang Yuan took out a White Jade Pill Bottle from his bosom.

He swallowed one Ginseng Pill and one Healing Pill.

In the battle with Li Wanlong, he had exerted all his strength and exhausted all the techniques he had mastered.

With full firepower, both his Qi Blood and True Qi were greatly depleted.

Especially the final strike to kill the formidable enemy nearly drained his Sea of Qi.

Now, he was extremely weak.

The situation was still very dangerous!

As the elixirs entered his stomach, they quickly dissolved, and the pure medicinal power spread rapidly throughout Zhang Yuan’s body.

His pale face immediately regained a bit of color.

Looking back at the direction he came from, Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and then fled into the depths of the forest.

This was an area he had specifically chosen, so he was naturally familiar with the surrounding environment.

At this time, Li Changxing and Li Changgeng quickly arrived beside Li Wanlong, one after the other.

They were utterly astounded at the sight of the immobile figure of the clan elder with his head bowed.

How is this possible!?

But the terrifying wound on Li Wanlong’s throat clearly explained everything.

"Uncle, Uncle Five."

Li Changxing’s lips trembled, as he fearfully reached out to check under Li Wanlong’s nose.

With his Tier Four cultivation, he really didn’t need to do this to determine if someone was alive or dead.

But this Li Family expert simply couldn’t or wouldn’t believe it.

His uncle had died!

Although Li Wanlong’s status in the Li Family was not as high as Li Shenong’s, his combat experience was far richer, having defeated countless enemies over the years and earning a great reputation.

Though impeded by his talent, Li Wanlong had no hope of Refining Yuan into Gang in his lifetime.

But within Tier Five, there weren’t many who could match his Invincible Golden Body and Gold-breaking Hand.

Such an exceptional powerhouse died here.

Right in front of him!

Li Changxing felt as if the sky was falling, his vision darkening, almost fainting on the spot.

In contrast, Li Changgeng was somewhat more composed.

Although he was also deeply shocked and saddened, he did not lose his composure and said solemnly, "Seventeenth Brother, let’s take Uncle Five away from here; we’ll deal with everything else once we’re home."

"Home?"

Li Changxing’s bloodshot eyes stared as he growled, "Uncle Five is dead, and if we don’t catch the killer, how can we face going back to Ruins City and how can we explain to the Patriarch?"

Li Wanlong was one of only two Tier Five powerhouses in the Li Family and was also an elder to both of them.

Now, this clan elder had died in battle here, and returning with his corpse in disgrace was unimaginable.

Ten Li Changxings plus ten Li Changgengs wouldn’t compare to the importance of Li Wanlong!

"I don’t want to die."

Li Changgeng responded expressionlessly, "Even Uncle Five wasn’t his match; how could we possibly contend with him? And with him gone, where would we even start looking?"

"This is Taiwu Mountain!"

Despite their Tier Four power, along with over a hundred elite samurai, appearing intimidating with their strong force,

venturing into the depths of Taiwu Mountain, they might not even be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the treacherous entities!

The deep mountains are full of great dangers.

Encountering a powerful danger could easily lead to complete annihilation.

Li Changgeng didn’t wish to concede either, but what else could he do?

And Li Changxing, not a hot-blooded youth, understood that Li Changgeng’s words made a lot of sense.

The current situation was not something he could resolve with mere willfulness.

He said dejectedly, "Forget it!"

This Tier Four expert gripped his fists tightly in grief, his knuckles making clear cracking sounds.

Li Changgeng immediately summoned several samurai over, instructing them to cut down nearby trees and make a stretcher.

They then placed Li Wanlong’s body on it to carry away.

Though Li Wanlong had died, his body remained as hard as iron, with the skin still showing a metallic sheen.

It was very heavy.

As they prepared to leave, Li Changxing looked longingly at the distant forest with deep unwillingness.

His intuition told him that the killer was hidden in that forest.

And he was most likely seriously injured!

There have been instances of Tier Four successfully challenging Tier Five.

But Li Changxing didn’t believe Zhang Yuan was unharmed.

Yet, this was only a conjecture.

If Zhang Yuan was lightly injured, the two of them would be in great danger.

If a Tier Five couldn’t defeat him, would it be hard for him to kill a Tier Four?

"Let’s go!"

The Tier Four expert squeezed out the words through gritted teeth, heading back toward Ruins City with an intensely sorrowful heart.

They had come with high spirits.

But now, in retreat, each one had their heads hung low.

Aside from Li Changxing and Li Changgeng, whose spirits had been heavily battered,

the Li Family Warriors had also lost their edge and confidence after Li Wanlong’s death.

Like defeated dogs!
