After he lost his right arm, Guozhi who was already weaker than the other Genesis Realm Cultivators who didn't use a special herb like him to breakthrough was no longer capable of even holding back against Jian Shen.
Whizzing around Guozhi in his lightning and wind clad body, Jian Shen continuously slashes towards him using a different technique every time.
How the hell is he using so many elements?
Other than desperately evading the attacks launched by Jian Shen, this was the thought which had filled Guozhi's head with.
Wind, Lightning, Fire, Ice, Darkness?, and Destruction?
How in god's name was someone so young using so many elements in succession?
And what were those two weird elements?
One of them made him feel as if there was nothing worth living anymore. And the other one was something which scared him to his core.
After all, Guozhi felt that even if he was barely scratched by that scarlet coloured attack he would end up being completely destroyed.
Therefore, in a matter of few minutes Jian Shen had riddled the man's entire body with sword slashes and even cut off one of his legs turning the situation more dire for Guozhi.
Panting loudly, Guozhi was now too weak to even notice that Jian Shen's boost was slowly reducing. Instead, he was only thinking about what to do so that he'd manage to escape with his life intact.
Realizing that he didn't have much time to live, Jian Shen went ahead and used the highest possible speed for the current him by using the Wings of Kun Peng to the max and closed in in Guozhi who hastily used the spear he was holding with one hand to defend against the two swords.
Regardless of how strong Guozhi was at his full strength, by holding the spear with only one of his hands he couldn't even completely block one of Jian Shen's boosted attacks.
Thus, after the first attack of his which actually cut through half of the spear due to using Sword Qi in his attack, Jian Shen's next attack left a huge ugly gash in the man's chest while the spear which was a Nine Array Qi Weapon was turned into two separate pieces.
"Ughh... "
Coughing large amounts of blood while the wound if his chest was showing the bones as well, Guozhi knew that this was his moment of life or death.
If he could escape, he'd live. If not, he'd die.
A quick look at all of his surroundings helped Guozhi know that the situation wasn't looking good for the Taiyang Empire in the slightest.
Also, it wouldn't be much of a surprise if the Taiyang Empire ended up losing the war before the sun even set.
Therefore, as long as he could escape now Guozhi wouldn't even have to worry about the Taiyang Empire or anyone else hunting him.
With such thoughts, Guozhi didn't hesitate for a single second as he turned around and began flying away at the fastest speed possible for him.
And luckily enough, he had chosen the best moment to do so because Jian Shen's boost had reduced and reached a level where it was impossible for him to chase after a Genesis Realm Cultivator.
Still, that didn't mean that he couldn't kill someone who was escaping.
Pulling out a spear and throwing it while using the Intents of Wind and Lightning to cover it with, Jian Shen this times used a Nine Array Qi Spear instead of an ordinary one like he used on that day.
Due to this, even though Guozhi saw the spear flying towards him and tried his best to use all the remaining strength inside him to deflect it, he ended up with a spear that pierced through his hand and heart before coming out of his back.
'Fuckk... '
Seems like this was the end of the line for Guozhi because he then fell down to the ground to never walk out of the crater ever again.
On the other hand, once Jian Shen took down Guozhi, the Genesis Realm experts on the Yueliang Empire's side began bursting forward with even more strength to completely pressure the other side.
Retreating while not saying anything, Qi Li and Mo Ying who knew that the fight was over chose to not interfere allowing the other Sect Leaders and Li Qiao to form a circle around Wan Han.
"This is it, Wan Han. I'll end the years of rivalry between our two kingdoms with this."
"Humph! I hope you're proud of achieving this by using the help of a little boy."
"Tsk. All is fair in love and war, Wan Han. And I love the idea of being the only Emperor of the entire Wu Yun Continent."
Laughing loudly without the slightest shame, Li Qiao proceeded to say, "I already gave him one of my daughters so as his father in law, why should I be ashamed of taking his help?"
"Don't get too excited Li Qiao, I'm still not DEAD!!"
Burning his own vitality to increase temporarily increase his strength, Wan Han decided to go out with a huge bang. And even if his death was guaranteed, he wanted to critically injure Li Qiao so that he wouldn't be able to rule his newly formed Kingdom for long.
Unfortunately, no matter how much Wan Han ignored the ever-increasing injuries in his body as he fought off four Genesis Realm Cultivators at the same time and tried to harm Li Qiao, he wasn't even able to land a proper attack on the man's body.
Therefore he quickly turned weak and ended up losing his life when Jian Shen appeared behind him out of nowhere and used his sword to completely destroy his heart while piercing through it.
"Consider my revenge completed with this."
Liks this, the war which should've lasted for at least three months was finished in less than a week with Li Qiao becoming the only Emperor to exist on the Wu Yan Continent.
