Chapter 2318: On the Brink of Death_1

Cai Yue'er sighed secretly as she observed the scene, "As expected of Elder Long, his strength has not only not declined after so long but has even become stronger!"

She had only ever felt this kind of oppressive force from the former Pavilion Master Yun Ming!

All of a sudden, she felt an intense sense of danger at her back...

Without a moment's hesitation, she flashed to the side, dodging the incoming attack...

When she looked back at her former position, it was now blasted into a huge pit!

Cai Yue'er's cold gaze fell upon the Abyssal Emperor that had ambushed her, and she spoke with an icy voice, "Are even abyssal creatures so despicable?"

These Abyssal Emperors showed no shame, but instead spoke with a vicious tone, "Cut the chatter, human, prepare to die. Let's all go at once and twist off her head!"

But before they could act, one of Cai Yue'er's Soul Rings lit up first...

The second soul skill, Silver Moon Wheel!

She stretched out her arms, and behind her gathered dozens of huge Soul Power discs, each shimmering with cold light and spinning wildly...

"Go!!!"

At her command, the wheels burst forth, slicing towards the Abyssal Emperors...

But their physical defenses were not so easily breached, and even as the wheels dimmed and shattered, they failed to inflict any real damage!

Seeing this, the Abyssal Emperors naturally became even more frenzied...

"Human, your strength is somewhat too weak, you can't even break through our defenses!"

"To think I was wary of this human, only to find she's just this much. I alone could tear her apart!"

"Enough talk, finish her off quickly, then break through the human defenses!"

Immediately, the Abyssal Emperors swarmed over her, utterly suppressing Cai Yue'er...

And in a moment of carelessness, she took a powerful blow to the abdomen...

As Cai Yue'er staggered back more than a dozen steps, she wiped the blood from her mouth, "Cough, cough..."

It seems I can't handle this as easily as Elder Long does!

After all, her strength wasn't at the forefront among the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion!

With that thought, she called out again, "The fifth soul skill, Silver Moon Protection!"

The silver moon in the sky scattered down its brilliance, bathing her entire being within it, and after a few seconds, it was as if she had been sublimated...

But the Abyssal Emperors didn't care about that and charged again with howls...

However, as their attack was about to hit her, it was as if an invisible force kept it at bay...

And then, "Bang!"

Using herself as the focal point, she reflected back all the absorbed attacks in the form of a shock wave...

Even though the Abyssal Emperors were repulsed, they charged at her again, undaunted...

At the same time, "Condensing Frost!"

A huge Ice Wall appeared out of nowhere, blocking the Abyssal Emperors in front of her...

But after the Ice Wall was destroyed, Wu Changkong's figure had already appeared beside Cai Yue'er...

Cai Yue'er exclaimed with surprise, "Changkong!"

Wu Changkong nodded in acknowledgment, "Elder Cai, I'm here to help you!"

As an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, he was well aware that Cai Yue'er's strength alone wasn't enough to combat so many Abyssal Emperors!

Cai Yue'er didn't play coy, and said seriously, "Good!!"

Changkong's arrival was timely, significantly relieving her pressure!

Seeing Wu Changkong join in, the Abyssal Emperors licked their lips with murderous intent and said, "Another one has arrived? No matter, you all will die here today!"

Wu Changkong raised the Frost Sword calmly and said, "Anyone can talk big. Perhaps, it will be the heads of you Abyssal Emperors that will be severed!"

As he spoke, the Four-Word Battle Armor—Skyfrost Loong Ice covered his entire body!

Cai Yue'er was astounded, "Four-Word Battle Armor? Changkong, when did you acquire armor of this level!"

Even the Battle Armor she was using was Three-Word!

Wu Changkong seemed to recall some unpleasant memories and bit his thin lips, "Elder Cai, this matter… is a long story."

Cai Yue'er did not continue to press and said solemnly, "I understand. Let's join hands to fend off these creatures!"

The fact that Changkong possessed Four-Word Battle Armor was a good thing, and his current strength should be stronger than her own, which gave them a better chance at dealing with these Abyssal Emperors!

...

Looking at the Abyssal Emperor that had fallen to the ground, Jiang July breathed heavily with relief, "Phew… It's finally over!"

Just as Long Yeyue was about to say something, she suddenly noticed that the Abyssal Emperor, who should have been dead, opened its eyes…

She immediately cried out, "July, get away quickly, that Abyssal Emperor is feigning death!"

Jiang July exclaimed, "What?"

But by then, the Abyssal Emperor had already approached her and revealed a cold smile…

The next second, its sharp claws pierced directly through Jiang July's chest…

Her face suddenly stiffened as she looked down at the claws that had pierced her chest, smeared with warm blood…

Long Yuxue roared, "July!!"

A Soul Ring beneath her feet lit up, directly conjuring an Ice Crystal Giant Hand behind the Abyssal Emperor and grabbing it tightly before forcefully throwing it backward…

And Jiang July, losing her support, softened and half-knelt on the ground…

Long Yuxue hurried over to support her, anxiously calling, "July! July!!"

Jiang July struggled to spit out a few words, "Yuxue… I…"

In a moment, tears streamed down from the corner of her eyes, "July, you must not die!!"

Jiang July suddenly let out a foolish smile, "Yuxue, why are you… cough cough, cursing me to die?"

The already anxious Long Yuxue scolded, "You're still able to laugh when you have a hole through your chest, July, you're about to..."

Jiang July pursed her pale lips, "Don't worry… I won't die!!"

She had released her ninth soul skill when the former had called out…

It allowed her recovery ability to reach a terrifying level for a period of time!

Even with three holes pierced through her chest, she was not dead yet!

Long Yuxue was stunned, but seeing the Abyssal Emperor charging at them again, she immediately held Jiang July and retreated backward…

Then she frowned, "July, what did you mean just now!"

Jiang July shook her head, "It's nothing now! Let me down!"

Although somewhat puzzled, Long Yuxue did as instructed…

But upon setting her down, she noticed that in Jiang July's chest wound, countless little flesh buds were beginning to grow…

Before long, it had healed to the point where it was virtually invisible to the naked eye!

Long Yuxue swallowed and asked, "July, this… what is this…"

Jiang July took a deep breath and stood up on her own, "This is my ninth soul skill! It's the Spirit Soul specially selected by my brother for me…"

Even the Abyssal Emperor across from them was dumbfounded, unbelievingly saying, "This person, she didn't die from such severe injuries!"

It somewhat regretted not immediately chopping off her head!!

Long Yuxue nodded, "Can you continue to fight then?"

Jiang July released her Martial Soul again, ready to fight, "Of course, I haven't taken that creature down yet, how can I fall now!!"

She became even more vigilant in her heart—if it weren't for the ninth soul skill, she was afraid she might have already been dead!
