At this moment, the spiritual energy within Fang Lin Kong was indeed vast and abundant, recovering to normal in just a few short breaths. An impulsive act could be forgiven, but he was at a loss for how to deal with the consequences that followed.
Lin Yu paused slightly, letting out a soft "uh!" as she raised one hand. A brilliant spark, like fireworks, shot from her hand, transforming into an Azure Light that streaked northwest.
"I'll send a distress signal to my fellow disciples and hope they arrive quickly!"
"Why not just call the police? Your fellow disciples are too slow; are they still booking tickets? Surely they aren't taking the train from Kunlun Mountain?"
Lin Yu felt a surge of frustration. The distress signal she had just sent was a call for help indicating a crisis level within the Kunlun Sect. Each disciple was only allowed to send three signals in their lifetime, and such a precious resource was not something she would waste lightly. Yet here she was, being dismissed by Fang Lin Kong as if it were worthless.
Fuming, Lin Yu replied, "The signal fire from my sect can reach the main hall of Kunlun in ten breaths. An elder on duty will receive it and teleport over immediately. I sent that signal because I was worried that the nearby brothers wouldn't be able to handle Ganesha. Do you have any idea how valuable that thing is?"
Fang Lin Kong was about to argue, but unfortunately for him, Lin Yu's words rang true. Help would arrive within ten breaths, but there was no time left. Suddenly, the building beneath them trembled violently as a crack appeared in the concrete foundation, sending countless fissures racing up to the rooftop.
"Damn it! This building is going to collapse!"
Fang Lin Kong couldn't fly and lacked Lin Yu's agility to leap and run between skyscrapers. In desperation, he unleashed all the magical artifacts he could use, forming a massive protective barrier around himself and Lin Yu.
"Roar!"
Ganesha, who had been sent flying into the sky earlier, had somehow burrowed into the ground. It surged upward from below. Unlike Lin Yu's graceful movements, every step Ganesha took caused the building's walls to crack and crumble; concrete shattered, bricks splintered, and even the steel-reinforced structure began to show signs of collapse.
Just moments ago, Fang Lin Kong had been humiliated in front of everyone by Ganesha, who was now seething with rage. Restoring his true form as a member of the Elephant God Clan, Ganesha stood over three meters tall, his massive physique resembling that of a human with an elephant's head, complete with a giant trunk and tusks, looking fierce and menacing.
Fang Lin Kong had a singular approach to combat. Faced with the imposing presence of Ganesha, he pointed a finger, unleashing the Liexie Twin Hooks in a swift strike, followed closely by the Solar Fire Orbs, aimed directly at Ganesha's body.
However, Ganesha, now prepared, was not so easily dealt with.
"Childish tricks! Do you think that China's Flying Sword makes you invincible? Witness my Blazing Fire Wheel!"
Chinese cultivators favored the use of Flying Sword, and similarly styled weapons such as flying daggers, forks, axes, and scissors were also common. Any type of cold weapon that had ever existed in Chinese history had its flying attack version. This included flying hairpins and bracelets, among other ornamental weapons. Thus, when Ganesha saw that Fang Lin Kong's Solar Pearl and Liexie Twin Hooks shared similar properties, he summoned his own Blazing Fire Wheel.
In terms of ranged attack power, Western monsters and cultivators were left in awe of the various magical treasures from China. They envied them greatly and thus developed some similar weapons on their own. The essence of these Chinese ranged magical treasures lay in their spiritual nature; the closer they resonated with their owner's mental waves, the greater their power.
Most Chinese cultivators began training with weapons like the Flying Sword from the moment they entered the path, often dedicating hundreds of years to their mastery. In contrast, Western races struggled to grasp this technique, relying instead on half-baked understandings and modern chip technology combined with missile principles to create a series of bizarrely powerful devices.
For instance, the Blazing Fire Wheel, while capable of flying and automatically attacking enemies, lacked spiritual essence. It operated based on a designed magical circuit that followed commands set by modern AI programming. It required an additional activation password held by the user to execute command-based attacks using demonic energy. To prevent enemies from taking control of it, this password was based on international SHA-1 algorithms and utilized fluctuations in demonic energy as its activation method.
The advantage of such devices was their inherent energy source. Once commands like attack, defend, or follow were issued, there was no need for further mental focus; they could operate alongside the user's attacks without requiring additional concentration.
Moreover, while Chinese Flying Sword type treasures possessed significant spiritual essence, there was always a risk that if another individual resonated better with them, they could turn against their owner. With years of combat experience accumulated over time, China developed various techniques to alter spiritual frequencies to confuse or even forcibly suppress a treasure's spiritual essence for retrieval. This was far more reliable than modern treasures that required secrets for operation—though "reliable" here referred to a Microsoft-style reliability.
The Blazing Fire Wheel, glowing with intense golden-red light, held its ground against the Liexie Twin Hooks. In terms of design, both weapons were capable of entangling each other's blades easily; they twisted and rolled in mid-air, advancing and retreating in a tug-of-war fashion.
Following closely behind were six Solar Fire Orbs. Confident in his thick protective energy, Ganesha did not evade; he allowed the Solar Pearls to strike his body directly. Each time Fang Lin Kong unleashed a Solar Pearl, it only caused Ganesha to stagger slightly without preventing him from closing in on his opponent.
Lin Yu was feeling increasingly anxious. In a moment of desperation, Fang Lin Kong had included her in his protective barrier, which left Lin Yu unable to unleash her combat abilities.
She scolded, "You idiot, what kind of fighting style is this? Let me out!"
Fang Lin Kong dared not heed Lin Yu's words. Seeing Ganesha pull out an enormous caliber rifle with a bore diameter of four to five centimeters from who knows where, Fang Lin Kong hurriedly tightened the protective barrier formed by over ten magical artifacts.
Fang Lin Kong himself wielded a Psycho Weapon, Vampire's Kiss. He was well aware of the power of weapons that combined modern technology with ancient magic. The Psychic Bullets used by the Demon Hunting Team were designed to target and eliminate evil spirits, and while their power was significant, it wasn't excessive. However, the arms factory of the International Demon Alliance had always pursued destruction and devastation. This was the first time Fang Lin Kong had seen such a large-caliber firearm, and he feared being blown apart by a single shot.
Ganesha did not favor using weapons; his formidable physique was his proudest combat tool. However, after being struck and sent flying by Fang Lin Kong's attack, this warrior from the Elephant God Clan felt a sense of caution and fear. Thus, he decided to test his shooting skills with the Blazing Fire Wheel and the heavy assault rifle.
The heavy assault rifle in his hands was designed and manufactured by Vani Xuan International Arms Company, funded by the International Demon Alliance. Its design borrowed heavily from original American models but featured entirely new internal structures. It was internally referred to as the Sun-Gun and commonly known as the Break Day Cannon—an improved model XII. This weapon did not support ammunition-less firing and could only use specially designed rounds. The market price for the firearm itself was seven hundred fifty thousand dollars, while each bullet cost one hundred twenty dollars.
The Break Day Cannon boasted immense power but had a slow firing rate as a drawback. It took an average of 0.67 seconds to fire a shot, with a bullet exit speed of only six hundred meters per second. It relied on the ammunition's rearward propulsion to accelerate, gradually increasing to six thousand meters per second within four-tenths of a second. This made it suitable for long-range assassination but not ideal for high-speed combat.
However, since Fang Lin Kong had clearly chosen to rely on defense to withstand the attack, Ganesha saw no reason not to practice his poor shooting skills on such an excellent target.
