Chapter 249 The Power of Water [2]
Seeing that Wu Shenling was defeated, the ninth-tier Xingchen did not react and seemed unwilling to participate in the battle; the seventh-tier Bafeng was busy checking on Wu Shenling's condition; while the eighth-tier Wei Churuo and the sixth-tier Sa Rui stood together whispering to each other, not interested in anything other than gossip.
However, these individuals' reluctance to participate in the battle was not due to a willingness to be subordinate to others. They were well aware of the gap between themselves and Shui Qingli, and were not belligerent, so it was reasonable for them not to engage in the competition.
With a leap, Wudeng Zhen arrived not far in front of Shui Qingli. He gathered his immortal power in his fist and unleashed it at Shui Qingli without hesitation: "Wudeng Zhen, please enlighten me!"
"Water droplets condense, water dragon!" Shui Qingli nimbly dodged Zhen's attack by sidestepping, and at the same time condensed a water dragon to attack Zhen who had passed by him.
Although she had been asleep for hundreds of years, this time was but a moment to Shui Qingli. She still remembered the experience she had gained from sparring with Yue Yuanming, so she was now able to handle Zhen's straightforward attacks with ease.
After all, Yue Yuanming's attacks are not like those of ordinary people; if you can't dodge them even slightly, you'll have to pay a price.
"Zhen!" Zhen turned around and punched the water dragon, shattering it into scattered streams of water. He landed steadily on the ground and pounded his fists on the ground.
Cracks quickly appeared in the ground, and sharp soil spikes emerged, rapidly spreading to Shui Qingli's feet.
Seeing the attack coming towards him, Shui Qingli turned into flowing water and disappeared. Two water dragons appeared where he had been standing and rushed towards Zhen.
Zhen raised his hands to block the water dragon, and a yellow aura emanated from his body: "Zhen!"
The water dragon was once again scattered by the immortal power, but Shui Qingli's figure could not be seen. Zhen could only look around warily to prevent being ambushed like Wu Shenling.
"Do you dare to face me head-on?!" Zhen's patience ran out quickly. He looked around and said with a hint of provocation.
Then he saw water blades flying towards him from all directions.
Zhen used his immortal power to create a shield around himself, easily blocking the water blade that didn't use much immortal power.
However, he forgot that the most dangerous person for him was Shui Qingli, who had just disappeared.
"As you wish." Shui Qingli appeared behind Zhen at some point, holding his magic weapon, the Water Shadow Sword, in her hand.
The moment Zhen saw Shui Qingli, he reacted immediately, disregarding the consumption of his immortal power, and used an area-of-effect spell: "Earth overturns, heaven and earth shatter!"
However, it was all too late. Shui Qingli stabbed Zhen in the shoulder with her sword.
"Water droplets condense, water tornado!" Seeing that Zhen was injured, Shui Qingli immediately conjured a water tornado to repel him.
The Water Shadow Sword only broke through Zhen's defense, causing a minor superficial injury. However, if Shui Qingli had reacted any slower, Zhen might not have been simply knocked away.
Without a doubt, Zhen lost. Seeing that Shui Qingli had shown mercy, he had no choice but to admit defeat.
Yue Yuanming sat on the throne, watching Shui Qingli with great interest—
As expected, the gentle and mild-mannered ruler still developed the same domineering nature inherited from him, with each move ruthless yet stopping short of being too sharp, which was no different from before.
Yue Yuanming's thoughts drifted far away, while Shui Qingli had already begun fighting against the fourth-tier You Fuyun.
However, as soon as they started fighting, You Fuyun discovered the problem—her abilities were actually limited by Shui Qingli in some aspects.
After all, Shui Qingli is the master of water, in charge of all water, and fog is no exception.
You Fuyun's magic not only didn't affect Shui Qingli, but often even enhanced the power of Shui Qingli's magic, which gave her a great headache.
However, since she was able to become a fourth-tier, she naturally had some skills. The smog once again enveloped the Mutian Pavilion, blocking everyone's view.
However, during Shui Qingli's investigation, she unexpectedly discovered five identical Youfuyun. Even their immortal power fluctuations were exactly the same, and they could not be distinguished by immortal power alone.
Five ghostly clouds surrounded Shui Qingli. Each of them had a different appearance, but they all held the same magic staff and attacked Shui Qingli directly.
Shui Qingli chose to conceal himself once more. He always felt that a clone created with immortal power could never be exactly the same as the original body, unless…
The true entity is not included!
A light blue glow emanated from Shui Qingli's body as he sensed everything around him. Then, he suddenly flew to a certain spot, placed the Water Shadow Sword directly against You Fuyun's neck, and said calmly, "You lost."
As the smog dissipated, the assembled Dharma beings saw Shui Qingli standing behind You Fuyun, the tip of the Water Shadow Sword pointing directly at her neck.
"How did you know I was here?" This time it was You Fuyun's turn to be stunned. It was expected that she could see through the clone, but it was not an easy thing to find her real body in the smog.
"Because I am the master of water, the water within the fairy's body is also under my control." Shui Qingli said calmly, revealing something that shocked all the Dharma Aspects.
