Chapter 56 Jade Talisman
Chapter 56 Jade Talisman
Meijiang Wharf.
Normally, this place is extremely lively, with people coming and going.
Today, the place is extremely lively, and the noise is even louder. Ordinary people would stay away as soon as they hear the noise.
The sound of gunfire was incessant, and blood stained the entire dock, making it too dangerous to approach.
Jiang Lang and his men originally intended to launch a strong attack to take over the dock area, but under the influence of the strange drumbeats, they could only adjust their breathing while defending, which slowed down their offensive pace.
On the contrary, the members of the Divine Symbol Society, who were originally on the defensive, took the opportunity to launch an offensive and gained the upper hand.
The current situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for Jiang Lang and his group.
If this situation cannot be changed, defeat is only a matter of time.
"You must risk your lives to stop that spear."
"Red Talisman Girl Yu Yi shouted loudly."
She dared not stop her movements, continuing to maintain that eerie drumbeat, unable to intervene.
Upon hearing this, several men dressed in red on the boat quickly grabbed their weapons and blocked the drum, using their weapons and bodies to obstruct it without hesitation.
"boom!"
The silver spear, like a silver dragon, cleaved through the sky, carrying Yang Jian's immense power far exceeding the peak of inner cultivation, and containing a powerful killing intent, as it shot straight toward the drum.
Those who stepped forward to block him were powerless to stop him with their weapons. They were either knocked away or passed right through. The spear slowed down when it landed on the strange red mist that appeared in front of Yu Yi, but it still landed on the drum with a loud boom.
"puff!"
The red mist on Yu Yi's body dissipated, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood. However, the drum in front of her was not destroyed; instead, it emitted a red light.
She protected the drum with the red mist surrounding her, and she was injured in the process.
Even so, Yu Yi's hands did not stop moving; she continued to strike the drum, maintaining that eerie sound.
The person looked even more insane.
"Bang!"
The rifle bullet fell silently, passing directly through the drumhead without any obstruction.
The loud noise from the silver spear concealed the rifle bullet.
Yang Jian's habit of finishing off enemies has worked!
The eerie drumbeats stopped abruptly. Even though Yu Yi was still striking the drum, the sound had changed and no longer had the same effect. The sound was much quieter and its penetrating power was greatly reduced.
Yang Jian could sense that the drumbeats had little effect on him; they were basically ineffective!
"No!!!"
Upon seeing this, Yu Yi's expression changed drastically.
A powerful backlash struck, and she collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood and turning pale.
In the distance, Yang Jian had already loaded his bullets and was aiming at the woman in red.
"Bang!"
Gunshots rang out again.
Rifle bullets flew rapidly toward the woman in red.
"puff!"
The bullet hit!
Yang Jian was not pleased to see this; instead, he frowned slightly.
He never expected that the people of the Red Talisman Society would be willing to exchange their own lives for the lives of others.
The man who had just been shot away by the silver spear suddenly lunged in front of the woman in red, blocking the fatal bullet.
At this moment, the other members of the Divine Talisman Society also noticed Yang Jian and fired their guns in his direction.
Seeing this, Yang Jian stopped firing and immediately turned to hide behind cover.
Once the goal is achieved, we can retreat as we go; there's no need to stay any longer.
The instant he dodged, a bullet landed in the spot where he had just been.
Seeing this, Yang Jian quickened his pace!
We are just mortals; we shouldn't confront bullets head-on.
"Brothers, launch a full-scale attack and take the dock area."
When the drumming stopped, Jiang Lang's face lit up with joy, and he immediately shouted.
He saw Yang Jian approaching the ship and guessed that it was Yang Jian who had resolved the strange drumbeat.
Under these circumstances, he naturally had to seize the opportunity to take over the Meijiang Wharf and eliminate these members of the Divine Talisman Society.
Upon hearing this, the other attackers decisively followed suit.
These people also knew that they couldn't give the strange drumbeats a chance to start, otherwise they would be in danger.
That feeling of my heart pounding uncontrollably was really uncomfortable.
"Yang Jian, you deserve to die."
After Yu Yi, the woman with the red talisman, swallowed a blood-red pill, her complexion improved somewhat, and her physical condition was not so bad. However, at this moment, Yu Yi's eyes were frighteningly cold.
When she called out the name "Yang Jian," she looked like she wanted to devour someone.
Everything was going according to her plan, but Yang Jian ruined it!
Yu Yi held a red jade talisman in her hand, and under her cold gaze, she crushed the red jade talisman in her hand!
Instantly, streaks of red light emerged from the red jade talisman, enveloping Yu Yi and forming special red runes. Yu Yi's internal injuries healed in a short time, and her aura grew stronger and stronger.
The eerie red mist she had encountered earlier was the result of her using the power within the red jade talisman to create a sound on the drum that affected people's heartbeats.
But now the drum is broken, and she has also suffered a backlash. The power in the jade talisman is almost gone, and she can no longer use that strange red mist. She can only completely destroy the red jade talisman and use the remaining power in it.
This also means that she has to fight with all her might!
The power she has gained now is only temporary. Once this power dissipates, she will fall into a state of weakness. She doesn't have much time left.
Yu Yi's gaze was fixed on Yang Jian's location. She leaped across the boat and decisively gave chase.
The battle at Meijiang Wharf is unlikely to be changed by her alone, but if she can capture Yang Jian alive, there might still be a chance to delay the inevitable.
As for whether it will work, she can only try it first and see.
This was the best solution Yu Yi could think of at that moment.
"Don't leave!"
Yu Yi is very fast.
She had already cultivated a lightness technique and was agile. Now that her strength had temporarily increased, her speed became even faster. In a few leaps, she had already reached the shore and appeared where Yang Jian had been.
She had already seen Yang Jian ahead.
He reached into his robes and pulled out five flying needles, which he then shot towards Yang Jian's back and thighs.
Hearing the noise, Yang Jian dodged to the side, using the cover to avoid the flying needles.
He then noticed that the woman in red had actually chased after him.
At this moment, the other party looked very strange. His whole body was covered with dense red runes, and his eyes were flashing red light. He looked as if he was possessed by a strange spirit.
However, when Yang Jian saw the top of the other person's head, a glint flashed in his eyes.
Because he saw a white ball of light above the woman in red's head.
This was the first time he had ever seen a white orb of light above people's heads.
Previously, neither Zheng Bo nor the martial arts master from the Divine Talisman Society had seen a white orb above their heads.
"Could it be possession by a strange entity?"
Yang Jian made his guess, but he did not stop walking.
After dodging the flying needles, they continued to flee forward.
Because he was still within the trajectory of the Divine Symbol Society's projectiles, he was not safe.
As for the person chasing him, it depends on whether she continues to pursue him. If the position is right, he can directly counterattack and take down the white ball of light.
