Chapter 602 - Corpse Transformation
Unlike the first duel, the second duel was a rollercoaster of emotions. Mo Xiaolang had quickly ended the fight, while the second duel was much more crucial because it would decide the result of the bet and also the fate of countless people!
Everyone watched anxiously as they fought. Jiang Wuya’s Ancient Demon Punch was an intermediate King-tier technique, which was slightly better than what Jiang Kun had, so it directly sent Jiang Kun flying. After bearing the immense force of the attack, blood sprayed out of Jiang Kun’s mouth and he crashed, tumbling several times!
Had Jiang Wuya won just like that?
The Battle clan and the Dragon clan were stunned, though that sentiment quickly turned to joy. Didn’t this mean that they no longer had to go to war?
Hadn’t victory come just a bit too early?
Long Chen did not believe that it had ended so easily. While everyone was prepared to cheer, his eyes were fixed on Jiang Kun. To prevent any unexpected accidents, Jiang Wuya was prepared to strike Jiang Kun again. Suddenly, Jiang Kun leaped up to his feet.
Blood continued to flow down the corner of his mouth, but it was as if Jiang Kun was completely unaware of it. An animalistic glint shone in his eyes, as if he had turned into a fierce wild beast!
He was injured, so how was he able to jump up so quickly?
The excitement in their hearts died down when he leaped up. Jiang Kun’s features twisted in a menacing manner, and he looked strange. Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what was happening.
“I don’t want to die, but I must not lose! You’ve forced me to do this!” Jiang Kun suddenly said with an evil sneer. He then lowered his head.
Long Chen’s team did not know what he meant, but everyone’s chest tightened, especially Jiang Wuya’s. Victory was within his grasp, and he did not dare let his guard down at such a critical moment!
Jiang Wuya charged at Jiang Kun as if nothing had happened. The image of his fist turned into layers of images as they flew towards Jiang Lun!
Swallowing Heaven and Earth had successfully hurt Jiang Kun once, so Jiang Wuya believed that he could beat him twice or thrice if needed!
However, when Jiang Wuya was about to attack, Jiang Kun let out a furious roar. Everyone saw him transform right before their eyes!
His body was withering!
He was thin to begin with, but his flesh quickly withered until he was like a skin-wrapped skeleton. Green smoke rose from his body, and the smell of rot filled the air!
Whoosh!
Jiang Kun looked up. There was not a hint of flesh on his face, and his eyeballs rolled within their sockets, making him look like a skeleton with just a layer of skin! When he bared his teeth, he looked terrifying!
“What just happened?!” Everyone on the Battle clan’s side was shocked by Jiang Kun’s transformation, including Long Chen. All he knew was that since Yang Ningfeng had sent Jiang Kun, he would be a difficult opponent to beat!
As expected, when Jiang Kun was about to lose, this transformation happened!
“Corpse Transformation!” Lan Ling’er suddenly cried out. She was more well-traveled than the other people after all.
Everyone quickly looked at her and asked, “Corpse Transformation? What does it do?”
There was panic and worry in her eyes when she said, “Corpse Transformation is a divine combat technique that has long gone extinct in the Divine Martial Empire. It is an evil technique that burns up the user’s blood, flesh, internal organs, and all their essence, turning them into fuel for his final fight. Corpse Transformation multiplies the user’s combat abilities by five times, but he will die!”
Increase by five times?
Jiang Kun was only slightly weaker than Jiang Wuya, so if he became five times stronger, how would Jiang Wuya hold him off?
Jiang Wuya, however, did not back down. Although he had heard Lan Ling’er’s explanation, the future of the Battle clan was in his hands, so how could he back down now?
“Five times ...” Jiang Wuya clenched his teeth. Five times is enough for Jiang Kun to kill me. I will just have to do my best! Even if I die, I must not lose!
He knew the consequences of failure. If he lost, tens of thousands of lives would be taken because of him. There was a huge weight on his shoulders!
I cannot lose! I absolutely cannot! He clenched his fist and warned himself. He had just been a step away from victory. He must not back down now!
“Second Brother, yield!” When Lei Zhen heard Lan Ling’er, he knew what to do. He could sense the power radiating from Jiang Kun. That man was as strong as a Third Earthly Martial Stage cultivator—how could Jiang Wuya hold up against him?
Lei Zhen had prepared himself to fight to the end of his life.
He had been prepared since ten days ago!
“I’ll keep going,” Jiang Wuya said in a flat voice.
Whoosh!
He disappeared, then he reappeared. He brought with him the power of the heavens and earth with his Swallowing Heaven and Earth technique as he flew at Jiang Kun. A black whirlpool turned into a Fist Seal and flew at Jiang Kun!
Roar!
The withered Jiang Kun let out a beast-like roar. He opened his mouth to reveal a rotten tongue and green slime.
When he exhausted his power, he would die!
It now depended on whether Jiang Wuya could survive until then!
Jiang Kun punched and collided with Jiang Wuya’s fist!
Crack, crack!
Jiang Wuya cried out in pain and was thrown into the air.
Not only was Jiang Kun fast, his strength had reached a level that was difficult for Jiang Wuya to deal with. His immense strength had directly shattered most of the bones in Jiang Wuya’s arm. He would have to rely on spiritual medicine to heal.
After this attack, Jiang Wuya had already lost all use of one arm!
“Second Brother, yield!” This time, Lei Zhen was not the only one. Everyone else’s faces changed too and quickly begged Jiang Wuya to yield.
Jiang Wuya was no match for Jiang Kun in this form!
“No! He cannot go on for long in that state! I only have to hold on a little longer, and we’ll win!” Jiang Wuya stabilized himself. Although he felt pain in his arm, he did not even furrow his brows!
He had to hold it in!
Blood dripped from his arm.
He hung his head, glaring coldly at Jiang Kun, who was looking at him with contempt.
“When you have to rely on a method like that, what’s there to be smug about even if you beat me?” Jiang Wuya gave a mocking smirk.
Jiang Kun did not speak, but Yang Ningfeng spoke on his behalf with a smile. “You guys used a loophole to send a beast to fight, so why can’t I let Jiang Kun use his Corpse Transformation? Haha, we all only care about the results. And the result is: the Martial Alliance wins!”
“It’s too early to talk about such things!” Jiang Wuya said coldly.
As he spoke, Jiang Kun was already charging at him. Jiang Wuya knew that he was no match in terms of strength, so all he could do was drag out the fight!
But how much time could he buy?
Not only was Jiang Kun stronger, he was also very fast! When he gave chase, Jiang Wuya fled for his life, but Jiang Kun immediately caught up to him due to the large gap in speed!
“Haha! Die!” A simple punch landed on Jiang Wuya’s back!
Jiang Wuya gasped and could only turn to block with his arms. Jiang Kun was just too strong, so the punch threw Jiang Wuya into the air.
Crack, crack!
The sound of breaking bones rang out as Jiang Wuya tumbled on the ground. His arms were bloody, clearly crippled momentarily.
“Second Brother!” Everyone gasped and quickly rushed forward to completely surround Jiang Wuya. His face was pale, but he still managed to prop himself up. He struggled to stand and roared, “Everyone, get out! The fight has not ...”
Although he was severely injured, he did not give up
Slam!
Long Chen struck the back of his neck. Jiang Wuya’s eyes widened and he fainted, falling into Long Chen’s arms. Long Chen gave everyone a look, and they quickly backed away, bringing Jiang Wuya with them.
“Roar!” Jiang Kun roared furiously and charged towards Jiang Wuya among the crowd.
“What is going on? Are you guys breaking the rules?” cried Yang Ningfeng.
Long Chen stepped forward and said, “We admit defeat for the second round. There was no condition in the bet that stated we must fight to the death, right? So if Jiang Kun moves, don’t blame us for what we do to him!”
“What do you mean?” The Battle clan had killed their previous candidate, the Yellow River Sword King, so Yang Ningfeng would never get to vent his anger if they did not kill Jiang Wuya. Since Jiang Kun had gone mad and was difficult to control, Yang Ningfeng did not command him to stop, using this as an opportunity to kill Jiang Wuya!
“Damn it! Xiaolang!” Long Chen’s brows were furrowed. Xiaolang was ready and immediately spat out his Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, forming a gigantic fireball that wrapped around the group!
Jiang Kun would have to pass through the fireball to attack Jiang Wuya!
Poof!
Their world went dark and they were plunged into the cold. At the same time, they heard a sizzling sound. Jiang Kun, who was covered in patches of the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, had rushed in!
