Chapter 1685 An a.s.sisted Win And Lin Mu’s Choice For Bets

"AHHHHHH!!! NO!!!" Yu Heng let out an unwilling cry mixed with pain as the three fire bolts tore through his body.

One went through his right arm, another went through his left leg while the final one pierced through his left lung.

~COUGH~

The man coughed out a mouthful of blood before stumbling and falling to the ground.

~THUD~

~HISS~HISS~HISS~

But it didn"t seem like that was the end of Yu Heng"s agony as the wounds continued to burn. The fire elemental immortal Qi had seeped into his body from the wounds, and was now spreading.

They continued to burn the wound while a.s.saulting his flesh and meridians. The man tried to use his own immortal Qi to expel the fiery energy but couldn"t do so with the pain a.s.saulting him. It had broken his focus and his foe was still alive.

~CLANG~ CLANG~

The net made out of the metal beads was broken and fell to the ground. It freed Mo Zhenzui who continued to aim towards Yu Heng. The man realized that he was now on the losing side and was greatly injured. He knew if he needed to return from this, he needed to a.s.sess his injuries.

But when the man checked his body he realized that he was in even greater trouble than he had thought.

"You! YOU BROKE MY MERIDIANS!" He shouted.

A few of the man"s meridians that were in his chest had been broken and burned. This happened due to the fire bolt that had pierced through his left lung. This now led to his immortal Qi leaking out of the meridians.

This greatly hindered his ability to expel the fire energy and also led to his injury worsening by the minute. If he didn"t address it soon enough, there was a great chance he would have a permanent internal injury.

~SHUA~

But Mo Zhenzui gave it no heed and simply pushed forward sending out a few more streaks of wind.

The wind was highly controlled and turned into thin whips that tore into Yu Heng"s body.

~THWACK~ THWACK~

~RIP~

"AHH! AHHHHHHH!" No longer was Yu Heng a calm and composed elderly man.

Instead, he looked like a sniveling pig that had been beaten and bloodied.

"Admit defeat." Mo Zhenzui stated, returning the words of Yu Heng back to him.

"Sssss~ How fierce!" Some of the people in the audience felt gooseb.u.mps seeing the scene and hearing Mo Zhenzui.

She continued to whip Yu Heng, until finally, the man pa.s.sed out.

"Mo Zhenzui is the winner!" The referee declared.

~Huu~

Mo Zhenzui let out a breath of relief as her expression finally changed.

"What happened to me?" Mo Zhenzui couldn"t tell.

Her cold and clear mind was no more, and the mixed thoughts reappeared. Her emotions also returned like a flood, making her feel a bit anxious. But then she took a glance at her defeated opponent and calmed herself down.

"That"s right… I defeated him. It"s already done." She muttered to herself.

This gave a rise to her confidence and Mo Zhenzui felt like she could do this again and again. Her proficiency with the Great Savannah fans had also risen and she realized that she had indeed gotten indented.

"How did this happen though?" Mo Zhenzui wondered.

To her, it was as if the enlightenment had come at the right time. It was almost like a helot from the heavens that had been waiting for her to act.

Unknown to her though, the help had not come from the heavens but rather from a person who had done so on a whim.

"The effects of the Severing Heart Sutra were really impressive this time. But it can also be attributed to the person it was used on." Lin Mu reckoned. "If Mo Zhenzui didn"t already have the apt.i.tude to do this, she wouldn"t have benefited this much. Even without my help, she would have achieved the same, albeit at a later time." He understood.

Mo Zhenzui wasn"t the only one to gain from this battle though. Even Lin Mu had learned quite a bit, that too from different aspects.

The first was the way Yu Heng used the Eighteen Mala Mystic art and controlled the metal beads. His control of multiple projectiles for both offense and defense was commendable even if it was declared to be a mere imitation by Senior Xukong.

Mo Zhenzui was the one who taught Lin Mu the most though.

She showed him how an immortal weapon could be utilized in different ways, as long as one had better control and understanding of it. She had converted her mid grade immortal fans into a crossbow form that held the might of a high grade immortal weapon.

That too a high grade immortal weapon that had a low consumption of immortal Qi.

Lin Mu had seen the difference in Qi consumption as well as the rise in its power.

"If it were me, I would have been able to improve it even more. The use of bolts in that crossbow was similar to the second form of the Boulder Collapsing fist." Lin Mu reckoned.

Mo Zhenzui had used the Wind Elemental Immoral Qi to compress and condense the fire elemental immortal Qi into crossbow bolts. This had increased the piercing power and strength of the attack that had allowed her to effortlessly pierce through the defenses of Yu Heng.

Snapping out of his thoughts, Lin Mu looked around the ring seeing the audience cheer. They all talked about how they would be betting on Mo Zhenzui from now on. Lin Mu"s immortal sense also picked up on bookies raising the odds of Mo Zhenzui.

Hearing all this gave an idea to Lin Mu.

"Can"t I just… Change the course of the tournament this way? Then I bet on the ones I"ve been supporting!" Lin Mu had an idea to make a lot of money.

He thought about it more and realized that he wouldn"t be able to do this alone.

"Hmm, I"ll need a few more people."
