NOVPUBChapter 714: Chapter 389 Annihilation_1 Chapter 714: Chapter 389 Annihilation_1 However, Lin Tianming practiced Dual Cultivation of Body and Law, and although the strike was powerful, his stronger physique meant that the injury he sustained was not severe, and his strength was hardly affected.
Chen Jianbin’s condition at the moment, however, was much worse.
After all, he had been embroiled in life-and-death battles all day, his strength extremely depleted, and he was already injured beforehand, which somewhat affected his prowess.
Yet Lin Tianming’s strength truly was formidable, as he managed to gain a slight upper hand in a head-on clash.
However, at this point, Chen Jianbin had no time to concern himself with that.
In his eyes, the completion of this exchange without achieving his goal meant that his plans had utterly failed.
With Lin Tianming present, he saw no possibility of killing Yang Chen.
...
In such a situation, what he should be concerned about was how to make a full retreat.
Realizing this, Chen Jianbin consecutively triggered more than a dozen Second Order Attack Talismans, creating a sky full of Sword Qi that bombarded Lin Tianming, who was closest to him.
Immediately after, his figure twisted as he hastily began a tactical retreat.
At the same time, his booming voice echoed across the entire battlefield.
“All Golden Sword Sect disciples, prepare to retreat!”
As soon as his words fell, Chen Jianbin had already retreated over a hundred zhang.
And other Golden Sword Sect disciples, upon hearing his words, all shot toward the direction Chen Jianbin was retreating to.
Seeing this action, Yang Chen, who had just recovered a bit, was both shocked and enraged, and quickly shouted out loud.
“They’re trying to escape, we must stop them!”
As Yang Chen spoke, He Xin on the other side was equally anxious, yelling from afar.
“All Zhenyang Sect disciples, at all costs, prevent them from escaping!”
In fact, even if Yang Chen and the others didn’t say anything, disciples from both sects would not let them escape easily.
At this moment, aside from the badly injured Yang Chen, everyone was shocked and enraged, following the Golden Sword Sect disciples’ footsteps as they retreated.
They had been guarding against the Golden Sword Sect’s possible escape all along.
And now, as expected, Chen Jianbin, seeing that he couldn’t win, intended to retreat and save himself.
This situation was not easily come by.
Keep in mind, after failing to capture the Jiuli Star Fruit, as they retreated, they were closely chased down, almost losing their lives at the hands of Chen Jianbin and his men.
Recalling that dire situation, it was equally difficult, with many fellow disciples falling at the hands of Golden Sword Sect disciples.
And after being caught up to, they were essentially forced into a desperate last stand.
If it weren’t for Lin Tianming and Hu Yuan joining their ranks, boosting their strength considerably, especially Lin Tianming’s dominance in battle, single-handedly breaking the balance between the two sides,
it would’ve been hard to say whether they could’ve achieved victory relying only on themselves.
Understanding this, the current situation, which had finally turned around, meant that the disciples from both sects naturally wouldn’t pass up the chance to beat the enemy while they were down.
Such a committed approach had plenty of motive behind it, not only to vent their frustrations but also to reclaim what they had lost.
After all, Chen Jianbin had nine Jiuli Star Fruits and an intact Fire Scale Beast corpse in his possession.
Besides, the Golden Sword Sect disciples’ year of adventuring and treasure hunting must have yielded many gains, not to mention the treasures collected from the cultivators they had killed.
So much treasure was now within reach.
Once obtained, they could not only recoup their losses but also far exceed what they had before.
With such interests at stake, it is likely that no one would forsake such an excellent opportunity to turn the tables.
For this reason, the disciples of Myriad Medicine Valley and the Zhenyang Sect were clear on what to do and acted promptly.
And Lin Tianming was even quicker, charging towards Chen Jianbin as soon as he made his move.
At this moment, facing the obstruction of these Second Order Attack Talismans, Lin Tianming opened the Eye of Five Colors. No matter how numerous or dense the attacks were, he could easily find the best path to evade them, allowing him to respond most effectively in the shortest time.
His speed was very fast, and he quickly closed the gap by dozens of zhang.
Seeing Lin Tianming react so swiftly, faster even than himself, Chen Jianbin’s face turned extremely grim.
This way, he feared he wouldn’t get far before being caught by Lin Tianming.
By then, he would yet again be trapped in dire straits.
Even knowing this, Chen Jianbin had no means to counter the situation.
He had long exhausted his high-powered treasures, and his Spiritual Power was nearly depleted, leaving him unable to engage in prolonged combat.
Only he understood his current state.
At this moment, Chen Jianbin was in a panic, his face looking exceptionally grim, no longer possessing the confidence he had at the beginning of the fight.
It wasn’t just him, at this time, the disciples of the Golden Sword Sect were all pale and bloodless, ignoring the pursuit behind them, and quickly converging in Chen Jianbin’s direction.
Meanwhile, the disciples of Myriad Medicine Valley and the Zhenyang Sect appeared fierce and relentless, closely pursuing the Golden Sword Sect’s disciples.
Quickly, Lin Tianming broke through the blockade and arrived behind Chen Jianbin.
At this time, they were merely a hundred zhang apart, fully within attacking range. 𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Watching the fleeing Chen Jianbin, Lin Tianming waved his hand and released several streaks of Sword Qi, blocking Chen Jianbin’s escape paths from several directions.
