Chapter 568: Seizing the Treasure
While Sogo, Ji Sheng, and Xiao Weiqing were engaged in a fierce battle.
The others tried to take advantage of the situation and seize the treasure, but were easily driven away by the three.
The treasure trove darted back and forth in mid-air, and no one could catch it.
"Ji Sheng, Xiao Weiqing, if we continue fighting, the treasure will only benefit others. Stop."
Although it was a chaotic battle, Sogo was under tremendous pressure. Ji Sheng was only slightly weaker than him, and with Xiao Weiqing also involved, he was unable to defeat the two of them for the time being.
Especially Xiao Weiqing, every time his blade struck him, it shook him to his core.
Ji Sheng cursed inwardly, but he was cursing Gart. His original plan was for Gart to hold off Sogo while he went to seize the treasure.
As a result, he is now tied up by Sogo, and Gart himself is also in a tough fight.
Garth, standing to the side, cried out that he was wronged, claiming that he was simply not fast enough to catch up with Sogo.
of course.
Even if he catches up, Garth won't force his way in. Although it will be a tough battle, it's better than a fight to the death.
"Xiao Weiqing, let's join forces and split the treasure equally."
Xiao Weiqing frowned upon hearing this, but did not reply.
"Ji Sheng is just a newcomer. We've known each other for years. If you want to collaborate, you should collaborate with me."
"We can't fight anymore, or someone else will really benefit from it."
Sogo advised, "Let's cooperate, eliminate Xiao Weiqing first, and drive him out of the Purple Sea."
His idea was simple: if he and Ji Sheng went all out, as long as Xiao Weiqing suffered an irresistible injury, he would be teleported out of the Purple Sea, leaving only Ji Sheng, who would not be his opponent. In the end, the treasure would only be his.
Ji Sheng noticed that the other six people were getting closer and closer to the treasure, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Rather than letting others take advantage of the situation, it's better to go all out with Sogo one last time. He has his own trump cards, so he's not without a chance.
"it is good."
Ji Sheng nodded in agreement with Sogo.
"It should have been done a long time ago."
Sogo was overjoyed.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Weiqing."
Ji Sheng said in a low voice.
The two then united and attacked Xiao Weiqing.
Even with Xiao Weiqing's superb swordsmanship, he was still no match for the four opponents and was forced to retreat steadily.
"Go to hell!"
Sogo's face was contorted with rage, and his enormous fist, imbued with incredibly sharp internal energy, slammed towards Xiao Weiqing.
"We succeeded!"
Just then.
Xiao Weiqing's cold eyes were filled with gold, and he silently thought to himself:
"The Dharma Image!"
Boom~
A powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body, forming a terrifying storm.
"Clang!!"
A soft sound.
The enormous golden hand easily blocked Sogo's full-force attack.
"What?!"
Sogo was horrified.
The sight of a fifty-meter-tall golden giant before him made his heart skip a beat. The terrifying pressure reminded him of the first time he had witnessed a battle between experts at the Dominator Realm many years ago.
"How is that possible?"
Ji Shengtong's eyes widened in horror. "What kind of celestial technique is this?"
The tall and majestic golden giant unleashed its aura without restraint, startling even the burly man above them.
"The soul manifests outside the body?"
The burly man asked in surprise, for he had never seen such martial arts before. He had seen many soul attacks, but none like this.
"His soul is indeed powerful; no wonder old man Dekar thinks highly of Xiao Weiqing."
"etc..."
The burly man's pupils constricted sharply, his expression turning grave as he looked at Xiao Weiqing again. "No way, impossible... impossible... he's only at the Star Lord realm."
"Let's ask old man Dekar later. If it's true, then we've really seen something amazing."
below.
Xiao Weiqing punched Sogo with a backhand punch. Sogo's four-meter body was already a small giant, but in front of Xiao Weiqing, he was no different from an infant.
Just one strike.
Sogo flew away.
"cut!"
A single, sweeping strike.
The treasure forced everyone around it back. Some people were grazed by the blade's energy and immediately lost their ability to resist. Their figures disappeared and were sent out of the Purple Sea by the Undying Realm expert.
Ji Sheng suppressed his inner fear.
With a fierce determination, he charged straight for the treasure.
Everything was under Xiao Weiqing's perception.
The massive figure turned and slashed Ji Sheng with a precise strike.
"Bang!"
Ji Sheng suffered internal injuries, his aura weakened, and he flew out like a ball. However, he was not teleported away. Xiao Weiqing had ultimately held back; otherwise, that attack would have either killed or severely injured Ji Sheng.
"Damn it!"
"I don't believe it!"
Sogo stepped into the void, his body expanding with each step, his aura rising a level, and in the blink of an eye he arrived in front of Xiao Weiqing.
"Azure Sky Shakes the Heavens!"
His right fist, imbued with terrifying power, created a vacuum area within the Purple Sea.
"Boom~~"
A powerful energy wave shot directly at Xiao Weiqing.
"court death!"
Xiao Weiqing's eyes narrowed, his mind stirred, and he silently said:
"Infinite Slash!"
The massive blade aura, arriving after the initial strike, cleaved the energy beam in two, heading straight for Sogo.
The fear of death gripped Sogo, his pupils contracted sharply as he watched the overwhelming blade slash towards him.
"It's over!"
The moment the blade's energy touched Sogo, the terrifying power of his soul had already shattered him.
Sudden.
A burly man appeared in front of Sogo, extending two fingers and easily pinching the blade.
With his other hand, he held Sogo as if he were a chick.
"Alright, that's enough. The treasure is yours," the burly man said. "You're really ruthless, kid. You didn't actually intend to kill him, did you?"
"Senior, you're joking."
Xiao Weiqing lowered his head slightly, his smile forced and insincere.
He then grabbed the treasure and, without even looking at it, quickly put it away.
"Senior, then this junior will take his leave."
"Okay, go ahead."
Xiao Weiqing bowed respectfully, then turned and drove the Soul-Repelling Raft away, flying towards the Purple Sea without any intention of lingering.
Only a few shaken veteran members remained.
"Greetings, Lord Quinn."
As a law enforcer of the Purple Sea, the burly man was clearly recognized by several veteran members.
"Let's call it a day. Purple Ocean will be closing down soon too."
After saying that, the burly man disappeared with Sogo in his arms.
"Cough~ cough~~"
Ji Sheng rubbed his chest and coughed a few times.
"Hey, are you alright?" Gart asked.
"It's alright, Xiao Weiqing showed mercy. I'll be fine after a rest," Ji Sheng said, still shaken.
He nodded, of course he could tell that Xiao Weiqing had shown mercy. Didn't he see what happened to Sogo?
If Lord Quinn hadn't intervened, Sogo would definitely have been killed.
"Seriously, are new recruits these days really this terrifying?"
"He's a monster."
Ji Sheng patted Gart on the shoulder, "Let's go, there's no comparison."
"Xiao Weiqing will probably enter the seventh heaven soon."
"Yes, he definitely has that potential," he added, giving a thumbs-up in agreement.
The group dispersed.
Xiao Weiqing, who had gone ahead, had already left Zihai and arrived at Zihai Town.
I sent Ji Sheng my location and then waited quietly.
"Have you been waiting long?"
Ji Sheng's voice came from behind.
Xiao Weiqing turned around. "No, it's only been a few minutes."
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Weiqing said again, "Ji Sheng, I apologize for what happened earlier."
"Haha~~~" Ji Sheng laughed loudly, "What are you apologizing for? I'm not as skilled as you, so I should thank you for going easy on me."
"Besides, I didn't lose anything, but Sogo is in a terrible state. He won't recover for at least ten days to two weeks."
Xiao Weiqing nodded; he had indeed not held back against Sogo.
"Let's not talk about him anymore."
"Let's go to the trading market."
