Chapter 278 Those who cover the rear must be prepared to do so.
Two different bolts of lightning abruptly split into several branches, each branch interspersed with silver light.
His empty pupils reflected two bolts of lightning that were gradually merging, and his expression finally thawed.
Such a sharp attack was completely unlike that of two Golden Core cultivators. For some reason, Kong Ji felt that his opponents were on the same level as him.
His expression turned serious, and the prayer beads in his hand continued to spin, showing no intention of removing the cage.
Long Aotian's sword tip pointed towards the emptiness, and his tousled hair seemed to have turned slightly white in the light of the lightning.
"Lieque and Pili—"
Hills and mountains collapsed!
The sword technique followed, and the two intersecting purple-gold snakes merged into a silver rope.
Two completely different streams of spiritual energy shone with a silvery light in Long Aotian's hands.
The silver light seemed to pierce through the sky and the earth, rushing straight into the emptiness.
The lightning was accompanied by a strong wind, which blew up the corner of his empty clothes. He had not put down the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand until he was struck.
Kong Ji received Long Aotian's sword strike, and his body was slammed heavily against a tree. Lightning passed through his body, and even the tree behind him seemed to be struck by lightning.
"Emptiness!"
This was the first time Ban Su had seen Kong Ji in such a disheveled state. He was about to slip away to help when Kong Ji wiped the blood from his mouth, his dark eyes growing even darker.
"It's alright, you take the others and go first."
In fact, after Kong Ji gave the order to retreat, the Ling Qing cultivators on the field were already trying to find a way to escape the battlefield.
They didn't linger in the fight at all and ran straight back.
But the Wanjue Academy cultivators who bit Ling Qing were like dogs seeing meat; once they had their bite, they never let go.
Whether the cultivators from Lingqing Academy continue attacking or flee, they will all be struck by a blade.
As the infection progresses, the poison seeps into the wound and quickly causes infection.
Those with pills can survive by taking them, but those without are in a state of total depletion. They are surrounded by dozens of other cultivators and can only wait to die.
Jiang He's actions resulted in the deaths of most of the cultivators at Lingqing Academy.
Ban Su was furious. Hearing Kong Ji's repeated calls for retreat, he nodded helplessly.
With ample firepower, Ban Su led his troops and finally fought their way out.
After leading the people out of the encirclement of several academies, only a dozen or so cultivators from Lingqing Academy remained, more than half of them had died.
If Kongji hadn't made the correct judgment and insisted that they leave no matter what, their entire team might have perished here.
The viewers didn't dare blink even once in front of the live stream.
Upon suddenly seeing the combined attack of Jiang He and Long Aotian, everyone became excited.
[Is this a combo skill? Isn't that something you learn in the third year of university? I remember that the success of a combo skill depends on the perfect teamwork between two cultivators during combat.]
Wow, that's quite a combination move! Wanjue Academy, how many more surprises do you have in store for us netizens to discover?
Both of them have lightning spiritual roots, and their spells work together so well. Are they really just freshmen? I've seen many cultivators start coordinating from their freshman year, and by their junior year, it's already quite impressive to be able to use their combined skills. Anyway, most of them start practicing early. Jiang He...
The chemistry between these two is amazing, they're like old partners, it's so satisfying to watch!
I'm a bit confused. I remember these two were still in the Golden Core stage, how come they suddenly joined forces and were able to exchange a couple of blows with Kongji?
Jiang He is still trapped in the golden cage. Despite being injured, she insists on fighting. She really is amazing! I'm so sad!
This is what a sword cultivator is all about! No matter how much they are attacked, they always have endless strength to fight back! Ahhh, I've decided I'm going to major in sword cultivation next year!
Think it over! I remember the sword-cultivation profession is dirt poor.
But poverty is temporary, but handsomeness lasts a lifetime.
Wake up! Being handsome lasts a lifetime, and being poor lasts a lifetime too...

Kong Ji was responsible for covering the rear. After taking a hit from Long Aotian, he stood up again, as if nothing had happened.
He glanced slightly at Jiang He.
He knew that as long as the prayer beads in his hand kept moving, everything was still under his control.
At least until Jiang He broke through the golden cage, Kong Ji maintained a rather indifferent expression.
But when the female cultivator in the golden cage was willing to pay any price, even if it meant shedding a layer of skin on her back, to break free of the cage, Kong Ji panicked a little.
Jiang He's determination made him pause, and he even tightened his grip on the beads in his hand.
Jiang He's attempts to attack failed, so she decided to fight with her bare hands. She squeezed out of the golden cage by turning sideways. The cage's pillars were very narrow, and the moment Jiang He returned to her original form, she gave the golden cage no chance to close again.
She leaned against the cage pillar, her skin rubbing against the pillar. In order to get out of the cage, Jiang He tried her best to shrink her body until she forced herself out of the cage.
Large areas of flesh fell off as the cage was forcefully broken, leaving a bloody mess of injured skin on his back.
After the cultivators from Lingqing Academy retreated, Shangguan Linghu was free to take out a numbing pill and put it into Jiang He's mouth.
She looked at the person kneeling on the ground with heartache.
Jiang He was released from the cage, but the pain in her body made it difficult for her to stand. She took only one step before kneeling on the ground.
A muffled thud was heard, and Jiang He stared at Kong Ji, who was standing there.
Only now did Kong Ji get a clear look at Jiang He's face.
Upon seeing Jiang He's face, Kong Ji recognized him as the commander of the Wan Jue Academy. He had analyzed the cultivators participating in the academy's competition, and his impression of Jiang He deepened after learning that she had killed several people of higher levels.
Before he could even think for a few seconds, one spell after another was launched at him.
Kong Ji was surprised by Jiang He's skillful magic and also somewhat astonished by her adaptability.
This doesn't seem like a spell that a Golden Core cultivator could cast. If he remembers correctly, Jiang He is still a freshman in college.
Faced with Jiang He's attack, coupled with the concentrated fire of the cultivators present, even though Kong Ji was a Nascent Soul cultivator, he had no choice but to leave.
But Jiang He wasn't about to let Kong Ji go so easily.
Those who cut off the rear must be prepared to do so.
Jiang He and Long Aotian joined forces again, unleashing the same purple light serpent formed by the fusion of two thunderbolts.
This time, the lightning was even more intense.
The essence of lightning spirit energy lies in its speed and power.
Lightning speed.
In less than a second, Kongji was knocked down again by the two's combined attack.
The string of prayer beads he was holding snapped instantly, and the smooth beads rolled all over the ground.
