Chapter 1484: Ingenious Strategy
"You're calling me a b*stard again? I've said already, you two are the b*stards. Haven't you understood this yet?"
Xu Que's gaze swept over and stared coldly at the two Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect.
He had used the metal parts of the System as armor for the replicas and taken advantage of their strength in numbers to improve his overall power. It had all come to him in a flash of inspiration.
This was a scheme that the System hadn't devised, but, because it approved of Xu Que's thinking, the System had complied with his plans.
If this had been in the past, his trick might not have been very useful. After all, the replicas that he had summoned in the past had been extremely weak. They had all been mainly a good smokescreen to fool people about the strength of an attack, but not so good for fighting. They'd been just like paper tigers that could be destroyed with one attack.
However, after the System had categorized and merged all the Magic Arts, the Replica Art and the Shadow Meld of 3,000 Thunders had been fused together. So now when the replicas were summoned, it used up a large majority of Xu Que's existence strength.
Other than the fact that the replicas could only be summoned for one hour, there was no other problem with them.
So Xu Que had distributed the metal blocks on his body onto each replica, greatly increasing their strength. This would help to turn the scene of tens of Xu Ques attacking the two Celestial Kings into reality.
Although dealing with the two Celestial Kings alone would not have been a big problem, just relying on the calculations of the System had a slightly higher risk.
Now, if there were tens of his self at the scene, each of them with the strength similar to his own, then this battle would become particularly boring.
Why would it be boring?
Obviously, because this would be such a crushing battle.
BOOM!
With a terrible sound piercing the silence, Xu Que stepped into the void, wielded the square halberd, and pointed at the two Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect.
"Kill!"
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, dozens of metal-clad replicas, who looked just like tens of metal robots holding metal-wrapped halberds in their hands, swept across the sky.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
With a series of dull metal sounds, all the halberds of the replicas changed their shapes. The metal at the tip of the halberd unfolded and turned into an umbrella, and rushed into the sky, directly facing the huge Yin and Yang image.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The dozens of umbrellas collided with the Yin Yang Blocking Evil image, and a loud noise erupted.
Sparks flew everywhere, and the void was distorted. The entire Yin and Yang Blocking Evil image was torn to pieces, bursting apart into bright and dazzling light that filled the sky.
"Scoundrel!" The old female Celestial King from the Sage Sect roared. She pinched her fingers together and brought them towards her brows.
BOOM!
A drop of blood instantly dripped out from her brow, and a ray of solid gray essence poured out.
At the moment when the grey essence appeared, the surrounding air suddenly stiffened, condensing into frost. With the old woman at the center, white snow started to drift all over the area surrounding her.
"This is...the true essence of the Yin blood!" Zixia Fairy's expression was shocked.
"Sh*t, isn't this old lady cultivating yang essence? Why is there a Yin essence?" Buttface was extremely confused.
Yin and Yang. Black is yin and white is yang.
The greyish-white essence from the old woman was supposed to be the essence of yang, but now it was actually the yin essence, which made many people feel extremely confused.
"Hey, I know, similar to the yin and yang theory that the little fellow has explained in the past, there is yang in the yin, and yin in the yang. Only with yin is there yang, and only with yang is there yin. However, there is still a little yin in yang, and the yin that can exist in yang only shows how powerful it is." Duan Jiude was the first to explain what was going on with a proud look.
"Well, you can indeed interpret it this way." Zixia Fairy nodded, her face solemn, as she said, "In other words, this yin blood essence is from the roots of her yang, and its power cannot be underestimated."
"Is it that awesome?" Buttface opened his mouth wide.
At the same time, the white-haired old man Celestial King from the Sage Sect also had a shocked expression. "Old woman, are you crazy? You've actually used this essence?"
"At this stage, do you think we have any other way out? If we don't use it to produce a real Blocking Evil image, we might die here today!" The old female Celestial King answered coldly.
The white-haired old man frowned suddenly and said in a deep voice, "You should know that if there is an accident with our essence, the cultivation of our lives will be lost..."
"There is no other choice, why are you are still hesitating?" The old female Celestial King said angrily.
The white-haired old man hesitated a little more, then looking at the dozens of metal figures approaching them, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Let's fight!"
WHOOSH!
He pinched his fingers together and touched them to his eyebrows. A drop of blood popped up instantly, and a stream of black essence burst out right away.
With the appearance of this black yang true blood essence, cold air surrounded the old man instantly, and the snowflakes in the air were reduced by half.
The two essences were floating all around and chasing each other. Then they turned into a circle, exactly like the previous Yin Yang Blocking Evil image, but the essence emitted after the two intertwined was far more powerful than it had been before.
BOOM!
The fusion of yin and yang expanded again in the air, continuously spinning. The void around it was shaken and started to rotate, creating a loud noise, which resembled the pain of the void being crushed,
Almost at the same time, dozens of Xu Que's replicas moved to kill. Dozens of Tough-Acting King's Purple-Gold Umbrellas faced the Yin Yang Blocking Evil image and rushed toward it again.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Suddenly, there was a series of loud sounds in the air.
But this time, the Yin and Yang Blocking Evil image with the true blood essence of the yin and yang was not damaged at all. Instead, the dozens of replicas of Xu Que were swept away by the Blocking Evil image and crushed by the void into pieces. Even the metal fragments from the System were distorted and scattered.
"Sh*t, so violent?"
Even Xu Que was startled.
Although he also knew that the blood sacrifice of the true yin and yang essence from these two Celestial Kings was extraordinary, he hadn't expected the power to be so potent.
"Sure enough, the replicas are a little worse for wear, but even if I had gone over there to personally kill them, I'm afraid I would've suffered quite a bit." Xu Que frowned.
Tens of replicas had been crushed in the blink of an eye, and only four replicas had barely escaped, landing well outside where they could be attacked by the Celestial Kings.
The advantage of the strength in numbers had suddenly decreased dramatically.
"This is troublesome." Zixia Fairy knitted her brows and frowned as if in deep thought, hesitant to make any decision.
"There is no need to worry, it is not entirely hopeless yet." A gentle, elegant voice suddenly sounded in her ears. It was Jiang Hongyan who had spoken.
Zixia Fairy frowned again and glanced at Jiang Hongyan, but she didn't answer her. She nodded slightly. This woman was rather pretty and was good enough to be her competitor.
"Ha, ha, ha, Xu Que, your death is near!" At this moment, the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus, Ming Yixuan, laughed again and said, "All the helpers you have called here are almost dead. Your Exploding Heavens Faction isn't up to much. How can you ants even comprehend the strength of the two ancestors from my sect?"
"Oh, why are you so noisy? It turns out that you are just an idiot who likes to talk big. Please be quiet, and watch how I will turn the two ancestors of your sect into beasts. After that, I will teach you how to properly be a man." Xu Que shook his head and sneered, glancing at Ming Yixuan tauntingly, and he lifted his Tough-Acting King's Purple-Gold Halberd suddenly.
"You're on the brink of dying, and you're still so stubborn. Let me tell you, Jiang Hongyan only deserves me, you are far from qualified." Ming Yixuan screamed like a crazed madman.
"You stupid idiot!"
Xu Que shook his head and completely lost interest in Ming Yixuan.
The moment he raised his halberd, the four remaining replicas also raised their halberds.
CLANG! CLANG!
Immediately after, the halberds in the hands of Xu Que and the replicas started changing, and the metal blocks assembled together quickly just like building blocks.
In just a few seconds, the halberds had turned into metal spell flags of different colors. A magnificent Celestial Core Power surged into the spell flags, making them overflow with brilliance.
"This is...the Five Elements Spell Flag?" Buttface was startled, and, then recognizing the role of these flags, he laughed abruptly. "Ha, ha, ha, I understand. This little fellow wants to use the power of the five elements to break the essence of yin and yang. Sh*t, this is such an ingenious strategy."
"Fall!"
Almost simultaneously, Xu Que called out and threw the metal spell flag in his hand and quickly pulled out his Taoist seal. Celestial Core Power shone from between his fingers.
The four replicas followed behind and threw the metal spell flags at the same time, and the sky was instantly enveloped by a colorful light!
The White Cloud Flag!
The Green Lotus Flag!
The Controlling Water Flag!
The Flames Off-the-Ground Flag!
The Yellow Apricot Flag!
Five pole metal flags suddenly flew up into the air. The four replicas were located all around the two Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect, with Xu Que's metal flag suspended above them.
BOOM!
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, the five elements with five different attributes instantly swept out from the metal Five Elements Spell Flag.
