584: C584 Despair

C584 Despair

Because the other party was a stranger, when he said such a name, he subconsciously felt that he was just a nobody.

The reason why his expression changed so greatly was because, when he subconsciously muttered the three words "An Zijin", a powerful existence immediately flashed past his mind.

It was said that he was a genius that was rarely seen in several hundred years. Four or five years ago, when he was only sixteen, his strength had already reached the second level of the Martial Lord Realm.

He already had such strength four or five years ago, so it was not surprising that his strength had reached the late stage of the Martial Lord Realm.

This was nothing. He had been planning to enter a mystic realm for several years last year, and yet he was able to obtain the Spirit Fire Hidden Lightning Flame that was ranked in the top eight of the Southern Domain's Spirit Fire Ranking.

I've heard that even if the Hidden Lightning Flame were to encounter the Spirit Flames ranked in front of it, it would not be at a disadvantage.

It didn't matter that he was in a higher realm, but to obtain such a spiritual flame was like adding wings to a tiger. It could be said that when the young talents of the Southern Domain heard his name, their hearts trembled.

However, because this An Zijin was extremely low-profile and had never appeared in front of anyone since he was sixteen, the people of the Southern region basically did not know what he looked like.

I heard that even those disciples who have lived in the Cloud Piercing Sect for five or six years have never seen his true face.

It was precisely because of this that Zhou Peng, after being shocked, hurriedly asked, "You're An Zijin from the Cloud Piercing Sect?"

"That's right!" The other party said arrogantly.

"Impossible, right?" Zhou Peng looked at him in disbelief.

Because he heard that An Zijin was not a woman's beauty, the people who were close to him since he was young had never seen him having contact with any woman before, so it was impossible for him to participate in the Groom Search Competition.

The other reason was that the relationship between the Cloud Piercing Sect and the Song Family was not good. If An Zijin really came to participate in the Groom Search Competition, Song Ze would definitely not allow it.

The most important reason was that the opponent's strength looked at most at the peak of the Martial Master Realm. How could it be the peerless genius An Zijin?

"Nothing is impossible." The other side lightly said this sentence.

With that, the opponent suddenly moved, and directly struck towards Zhou Peng with his palm.

However, this was not a place that Zhou Peng was afraid of. What made Zhou Peng afraid was that when the other party's force came, there was actually an indistinct sound of thunder in the air.

Several lightning bolts immediately attached themselves to the other party's force.

"You really are An Zijin!" Zhou Peng said in shock.

Thinking about how An Zijin possessed the Hidden Lightning Flame, Zhou Peng didn't doubt the other party's words anymore.

At this moment, he naturally understood that he had not been able to see through the other party's strength at all.

Shocked, how could he dare to be careless? Instead, he used all of his strength.

In the next moment, a rune sword appeared in front of him and welcomed the palm attack.

With a burst of explosive sounds, the two forces collided together.

Soon after, Zhou Peng retreated seven or eight steps, but An Zijin remained still.

Although there was such a difference in strength, Zhou Peng was relieved in his heart. This was because the other party did not seem to have the ability to immediately deal with him, and once he could hold on for a while, once the people who were searching for Ganoderma lucidum rushed over, he would have the chance to escape from their pursuit.

"An Zijin, I have no enmity with you, why did you attack me?" At this time, Zhou Peng frowned and asked.

He was baffled by the other party's actions.

"Of course it's for that Ganoderma lucidum." The other party said indifferently.

"Even if you kill me, you might not even be able to find that Ganoderma lucidum." Zhou Peng said gloomily.

"If I kill you, killing the people near here will naturally result in me obtaining that Lingzhi." An Zijin said.

There was a high chance that An Zijin had a way to search for the Ganoderma lucidum. Seeing how confident he was, Zhou Peng couldn't help but think in his heart.

However, even if the other party had some clever method, Zhou Peng did not dare have any thoughts on fighting the Ganoderma lucidum.

Only, at this point, he could not help but ask, "Qi Yuanming and Guo Shaoqing have already been harmed by you?"

"That's right." An Zijin said without hesitation.

Seeing An Zijin's straightforward answer, and thinking of the voice he had just heard, Zhou Peng's heart immediately sank.

If the opponent could take care of the two of them so quickly, there was a high chance that he still had some trump card he hadn't used yet.

He didn't dare to stay where he was. With a stomp, he immediately turned around and fled backwards.

Unexpectedly, An Zijin's movements were extremely fast, and before he even moved, An Zijin had already sent another palm strike over.

Helpless, Zhou Peng could only brace himself and swing his sword at his opponent.

What made Zhou Peng sigh in relief was that the opponent's strength seemed to be incomparably weaker than before. If that was the case, he would naturally be able to withstand this attack.

But after the Qi-Storing, his expression immediately changed greatly.

Because at this moment, the surrounding space suddenly resonated with an even denser sound of thunder, following that, an even more obvious amount of white colored lightning suddenly appeared in the air and shot towards Zhou Peng.

How could Zhou Peng withstand the endless power of the lightning? Before he could even regain his senses, all of his sword Qi had been destroyed by the lightning.

Just as Zhou Peng was about to be struck by the lightning, countless runes suddenly appeared on his body, in the blink of an eye these runes formed a set of armor to protect his body.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

With the sound, the lightning struck the armour.

With a stuffy groan, Zhou Peng was directly struck and sent flying several tens of meters away.

Puff.

After colliding with a large tree, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

An Zijin's attack was countless times stronger than Guo Shaoqing, so such a strike caused him to be severely injured.

"Hmm?"

Surprise flashed across An Zijin's eyes, but how would he give Zhou Peng the chance to catch his breath?

The moment Zhou Peng landed on the ground, his figure had already moved.

Seeing An Zijin rushing over, Zhou Peng's face became even uglier.

Although his Fu Wenjia could block the opponent's attack, but this Fu Wenjia was still a consumable. Every time he used it, his defensive power would drop a notch.

Which meant that he wouldn't be able to withstand An Zijin's next attack.

But what could he do now?

He could only grit his teeth, stimulate the mystical Qi in his body again, and swing his sword towards his opponent.

Even if he knew that he would lose, he still couldn't give up.1

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The lightning from before appeared once more in the void.

An Zijin's energy brought along the lightning bolts as he rushed towards Zhou Peng who was in front of him.

An Zijin could obviously tell that Zhou Peng was using Fu Wenjia, so right now, in his eyes, Zhou Peng was basically just like a dead person.
