Just one clone was enough to consume more than 20% of his vitality, two clones would consume about 50% of his vitality, plus a more powerful main body. The main body didn't need to last three or four times longer than the clones, it only needed to last twice as long, and his vitality wouldn't be able to hold on!
"We must hold on, we must hold on!"
At this point, the mysterious man already knew the killing moves of Yang Qi and the other two. The other party had long found a way to restrain the Source of Life Pearl, and was even certain to kill him, so he came here instead of coming here to die!
Under the influence of time stagnation, the mysterious man can only hope that his vitality can hold on.
The shadow clone appeared and immediately took over the task of maintaining the time stop from the main body, while Yang Qi himself quickly took the elixir to restore his energy and quickly refined it to restore the energy consumed by the previous time stop.
Dao's clone was responsible for maintaining the stagnation of time, while Chen Jie and Yuan Jiu were crazy attackers. Every moment seemed extremely long, because both sides in the fight knew that that moment could be the key to determining the outcome of the battle.
The energy of the clone of Tao was quickly exhausted, and the source of Tao burned again and dissipated. Yang Qi immediately took over, leaving the mysterious man no chance to resist.
When Yang Qi used the Time Stop technique for a moment, and no more clones of the Sword Dao appeared, the mysterious man couldn't help but secretly said in his heart, "Although the vitality loss is more than 50%, there is still hope!"
If Yang Qi could still use his Dao clone, the mysterious man would definitely die, but with only his original body left, he might not be unable to resist!
Seeing that Yang Qi had already used his true power, Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie became more and more crazy, and attacked the mysterious man with all kinds of attacks.
40% vitality...
30% vitality...
20% vitality...
The mysterious man felt his remaining vitality dwindling away, and he couldn't help but panic because he found that Yang Qi did not seem to be exhausted yet.
"There is not much energy left. If we still cannot kill the mysterious man, we have no choice but to retreat!"
Seeing that the mysterious man could still withstand the attacks of Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie, Yang Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Although his original body could be maintained longer than Dao's clone, the consumption was also extremely huge. Now the Yuanli in his body has been almost consumed.
"Less than half of my vitality is left!"
The mysterious man felt his remaining vitality, and his heart was suddenly filled with despair. With less than half of his vitality, could he hold on
"My energy is almost gone, let's get ready to retreat!" Yang Qi said in a voice transmission.
"Still not working?"
Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie smiled bitterly in their hearts. After wasting such a long time, Yang Qi even figured out the method of stopping time, but he still couldn't kill the mysterious man!
Boom! Boom!
Although they were ready to evacuate, Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie did not stop their attacks and continued to hit the mysterious man.
"withdraw!"
Feeling that there was only a trace of energy left in his body, Yang Qi immediately transmitted the message that this trace of energy was used to save his life, and that he had already tried his best in the battle to this point!
Following Yang Qi's voice transmission, Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie had no choice but to retreat. They flashed and retreated violently.
"No!"
As the effect of time stagnation disappeared, the mysterious man recovered. However, the moment he recovered, a roar of unwillingness came out of his mouth.
Boom!
Several attacks before the evacuation fell on the mysterious man, and the mysterious man's life breath completely dissipated, and he died on the spot!
"this… "
Looking at the mysterious man without any breath of life, Yang Qi and the other two were stunned. They were all preparing to evacuate, but they didn't expect that the last attack before evacuation would actually successfully kill the mysterious man
This was definitely something that Yang Qi and the other two had not expected. The mysterious man actually died at the last moment.
Yuan Jiu's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "It takes time for the Life Source Pearl to recover its vitality. His vitality must be very low, and he was hit by our attack before he could recover."
The speed at which Yuan Jiu and Chen Jie destroy vitality is definitely not as fast as the speed at which the Life Source Pearl restores vitality, but in the end the mysterious man was killed by the attacks of the two. The only explanation is that the Life Source Pearl had no time to restore the vitality of the mysterious man before the last few attacks killed the little vitality left of the mysterious man!
This was actually a time difference. If Yang Qi had stopped using the time stop a little earlier, perhaps the Life Source Pearl would have had time to restore the mysterious man's consumed vitality. However, it was this certain time difference that resulted in the mysterious man's death!
"No matter what the reason is, at least we can leave this strong man's cave alive!" Chen Jie said with a chuckle.
After hearing this, Yang Qi and Yuan Jiu were stunned at first, then nodded. They almost failed this time. No matter what the reason was in the end, their success meant that they could leave the cave alive!
Wow~Wow~
Just as Yang Qi and the other two were talking, a wave suddenly surged from the mysterious man's body, and then a silver gem floated out of the mysterious man's body.
"A treasure that defends against soul attacks!"
The moment the silver orb appeared, Yang Qi and Yuan Jiu felt the fluctuation in the orb. This orb was the treasure that the mysterious man had mentioned before, which could defend against soul attacks.
"Almost at the three-star Martial Emperor level?" Feeling the fluctuations in the silver orb, Yang Qi and the others couldn't help but feel fortunate. Fortunately, they had not thought of trying soul methods before, otherwise, in front of this treasure that could defend against soul attacks, their soul attacks would be completely useless against the mysterious man.
Buzz~
As the silver bead appeared, the mysterious man's body suddenly began to shrivel rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a mummy.
The mysterious man was a cultivator at the Martial Emperor level. Even after his death, it was very common for his body to remain immortal for tens of thousands of years. But now he turned into a mummy in an instant. This was too strange!
"The source of life is about to come out!" Yuan Jiu fixed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
Whoosh~
As Yuan Jiu's voice fell, a turquoise bead flew out from the mysterious man's chest and hovered in the air. This was the Source of Life Bead, the mysterious man's greatest reliance!
The Life Source Pearl appeared, and three treasures appeared in front of Yang Qi and the other two. One was the mysterious man's personal weapon, a mid-grade Taoist sword of the best level. The second was the pearl that defended against soul attacks, and the third was the most precious Life Source Pearl.
Chen Jie looked at the long sword and immediately said, "This long sword is good, Brother Yang, don't fight with me for it!"
Who wouldn't want a precious treasure? But Chen Jie knew his own limitations. He had contributed the least on this journey, so when there was a treasure, he would choose the worst one. The middle-grade Taoist weapon was undoubtedly the least valuable of the three treasures. Chen Jie decided on it first. In fact, with his status, a middle-grade Taoist weapon was not worth mentioning to him at all. (To be continued)
