The battle of the Heavenly Chosen is a fight for every inch.

The moment she saw the purplish-black handprint, a circle of fierce light burst from Jiang Limeng’s right leg, just below the knee.

Her entire lower leg was severed by the light, falling from the high sky.

The halo of light flowed through her body, expelling the hidden, dark power within.

At the same time, a translucent figure of a water ghost emerged from the section of her lower leg that had been severed, and was drenched in the fresh blood that gushed from the wound.

“Heh heh heh heh.”

The fresh blood flowed over the water ghost without clinging to it in the slightest.

And it laughed strangely.

Jiang Limeng instinctively condensed a blazing ball of light, wanting to destroy it, but suddenly found that her Dao Yuan was difficult to replenish!

Her vast reservoir of Dao Yuan, which was as boundless as a flowing river, had somehow already reached its limit!

This water ghost that was laughing strangely was not an ordinary water ghost, but a Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost!

At the very beginning of the battle, Lin Zhenren had already used it to lay a trap, using the “feigned death” of the water ghost to make Jiang Limeng relax her guard. In reality, it had already invaded her body and was constantly accelerating the consumption of her Dao Yuan.

Lin Zhenren twisted and turned in the battle, constantly luring Jiang Limeng to use more powerful techniques, all for this moment when her Dao Yuan was depleted!

It is easy to be cruel to others, but difficult to be cruel to oneself.

Jiang Limeng severed her lower leg at the first possible moment, demonstrating the decisive nature of a Heavenly Chosen when faced with unexpected changes.

But it seemed, it was still too late.

She successfully found the dark power that had invaded her body and expelled it, but the battle had already gone on for a long time…

In the previous few “difficult” battles, Lin Zhenren had been constantly reinforcing one piece of information – his ghost-raising divine ability was very weak, and his ghosts were easily destroyed by the most yang techniques.

And then he used this point to make many maneuvers!

Jiang Limeng dissipated the Dao spell in her hand and retracted the flowing light shield, allowing the spell to wrap around her fingertips in the form of flowing light again.

She flew back, landing on the ground, at the edge of the martial arts arena, facing Lin Zhenren.

Although she only had one leg left, she stood tall and proud.

The remaining Dao Yuan was no longer enough to support her extravagance, but, she could still fight!

Being forced to this point was something she had never expected.

The sincere Lin Zhenren she had met in the Yellow Millet Secret Realm, with such deep scheming, had given her a very profound lesson.

She admitted that she had misjudged, admitted that she had made a foolish, arrogant mistake.

But she refused to accept defeat just like that!

There was still a chance, still a chance.

Wait for him to come over… the outcome had not yet been decided!

Jiang Limeng’s fighting spirit was boiling, yet she forced herself to calm down, waiting for the right moment.

She was not dead yet, so she had not lost yet.

She stared intently at Lin Zhenren. The anger that was useless in battle had been temporarily erased by her.

And on the other side of the martial arts arena…

Lin Zhenren, with his eyes tightly closed, tilted his ears again, seemingly judging Jiang Limeng’s position.

But his hands did not stop, and he was still quickly forming hand seals.

“Xiao Li?” he asked.

The Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost let out a sharp scream.

Lin Zhenren then extended his hand and released the Dao spell.

The scene repeated as it had in the beginning, a wall of water pushing horizontally.

Jiang Limeng accurately controlled the power of the Dao spell, which was not difficult with the help of Si Yao’s divine ability.

A ray of fierce light precisely cut through the wall of water. Not a single speck of Dao Yuan was wasted.

The blood from her severed leg had stopped, but Jiang Limeng’s heart was sinking.

Because another wall of water was pushing horizontally.

This Lin Zhenren… was too steady.

At the moment when her Dao Yuan was almost exhausted, at the moment when the outcome could already be decided, he still did not launch a decisive strike, but chose to continue consuming her with Dao spells like water walls.

Jiang Limeng swiped with a single finger, accurately cutting through the water wall again, and silently drifted to the right.

That hateful Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost suddenly let out another sharp scream, providing Lin Zhenren with the direction.

Lin Zhenren followed suit, and without hesitation, pushed another water wall.

Initially, she thought this Dao spell was clumsy, but Lin Zhenren’s use of it at this moment was so exquisite – the hand seals were simple, the coverage area was large, and it did not require precise release, forcing her to react.

Jiang Limeng gritted her teeth, and from her already limited Dao Yuan reserve, she separated a portion and grasped it with one hand!

Around the Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost, the light suddenly twisted, solidifying and repeatedly intertwining, binding it.

*Splatter!*

The Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost softened just like that, shattering into a pool of water.

“Heh heh heh heh!”

It emerged from another pool of water not far away, laughing strangely at Jiang Limeng.

This Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost was truly not simple!

It could not be simply killed, nor could it be bound.

Jiang Limeng thought to herself silently.

Killing moves definitely could not be used on this water ghost, but simple Dao spells were ineffective, and… she could not afford to waste any more time.

The Dao Yuan reserve in the Tongtian Palace was already depleted.

And that damned Lin Zhenren, another water wall pushed over.

Water wall, water wall, another water wall!

Lin Zhenren was now relying on his advantage in Dao Yuan, unwilling to take any risks. He was focused on this one advantage, maximizing its effectiveness.

But she, Jiang Limeng, how could she be a Heavenly Chosen who was consumed to death by a water wall?

She had to win!

Jiang Limeng no longer hesitated, because this opponent would only be more cautious than her, and would never make a careless mistake.

Today’s battle had made it clear to her that when fighting against this person, one could not wait for an opportunity; one could only seize it oneself.

So she no longer held back, stomping on the ground with a single foot, springing up, and once again launched a charge towards Lin Zhenren!

Compared to the previous imposing, goddess-like stance with overwhelming power.

This time, she carried the lone courage of a warrior, the unwillingness of a Heavenly Chosen.

How could I, Jiang Limeng, stop here?!

She raised both hands high, and endless brilliance gathered in her hands, forming a huge, extremely radiant and exaggerated curved Guan Dao. It chopped down towards Lin Zhenren’s head!

This single strike, just the light that burst forth, had already completely annihilated all the Dao spell barriers between her and Lin Zhenren.

And Jiang Limeng raised this blade high and chopped down, carrying myriad lights, majestic like a valkyrie.

Everyone knew that Jiang Limeng could not possibly have that much Dao Yuan left; her Dao Yuan reserve was definitely not enough to support a Dao spell of this level.

So at this moment, she was not hesitating to use the Dao Yuan that supported the Heavenly and Earthly Isolated Island, risking the sinking of the Heavenly and Earthly Isolated Island into the Five Palaces Sea, to launch this attack!

This was staking her Dao path!

“Screech!”

The Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost suddenly appeared in front, but was easily cut into two by this radiant blade.

With this delay, Lin Zhenren received the water ghost’s reminder again, and retreated three steps.

Three emerald green trees rose from the ground.

It was the Three Life Jade Tree again!

Jiang Limeng had arrived.

Even a Dao spell as powerful as the Three Life Jade Tree…

It was simply not enough!

The three emerald green trees were completely unable to withstand such a heavy blow, collapsing one after another, exploding into countless fragments of light.

It was… the Guan Dao chopping down and the glazed tiles shattering!

It seemed as though Jiang Limeng was making a comeback from a desperate situation, crushing all sinister schemes with astonishing courage and unparalleled killing power.

But within the dazzling, shattered flowing light.

Jiang Limeng, looking down from above, saw…

Lin Zhenren’s eyes suddenly wide open!

He wasn’t blind from the beginning! This was Jiang Limeng’s first thought.

And the blood that meandered down from the corners of Lin Zhenren’s eyes suddenly “came alive” at this moment, like a long snake, springing up and gathering into a ball in the air, expanding into a blood ghost with a hideous appearance. It shot over at terrifying speed, sticking to her cheek!

That’s right, the ghosts Lin Zhenren raised did not have those weaknesses, so if the cage of the Blazing Light Suppressing Prison was opened, his blood ghost did not have to die. This was Jiang Limeng’s second thought.

What else did this person hide? This was her last thought.

The blood ghost covered her face and knocked her down.

The Dao Essence Devouring Water Ghost behind her, which had been cut open, also gathered again and pounced over.

And Lin Zhenren himself…

The radiant light of the Guan Dao dissipated in front of him.

The powerful opponent fell in front of him.

Within the shattered, dazzling flowing light…

He retreated backwards!

At such a moment when victory was certain, he still did not take any risks!

The green tree ghost that had remained behind him the entire time leaped up and pounced forward, joining in the “gnawing” of Jiang Limeng.
