Chapter 992 -286: Corpse Bone Protector Meets Hook Chen
Blade wielders are mostly known for their strong offense and weak defense, but Fan Yong was an anomaly among them, transitioning between attack and defense with a balance akin to that of yin and yang, and he even managed to block the assault of more than a dozen Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads.
Tang Luo felt a sense of admiration, “Beimang indeed has many strong individuals, and it’s somewhat reasonable. A random blade wielder from Fierce Realm actually possesses such a level of offensive and defensive skills, which is quite interesting indeed.”
Fan Yong, shrouded in dark clouds, had no idea what Tang Luo was thinking. In fact, he hadn’t even seen Tang Luo’s face before he was trapped in the clouds.
It was as if countless fierce beasts were lurking in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to strike, and every Fallen Imperial Magnetic Bead attack was like the full-force strike of a physical expert. The violent arcs of electricity channeled down the blade into his body with every collision, consuming his Spiritual Power, and the strength of the beads themselves left him bitterly exhausted.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!”
After blocking another three Fallen Imperial Magnetic Beads, Fan Yong’s right arm, which held the saber, was trembling uncontrollably, and even the Spiritual Power within his body was depleted by almost half. Knowing that a prolonged defense was bound to fail, if this continued until his Spiritual Power was largely exhausted, he would no longer have a chance to break through.
With a resolute heart, seizing the gap between the bead attacks, he switched from defense to offense, transforming into a long blade cutting through the azure sky, and indeed, he broke out of the dark cloud.
As Fan Yong emerged back into daylight, before he could feel a rush of excitement, he saw a warrior standing above the clouds. He was wearing a Gou Chen Mask and a black Star Robe, seeming thin and waiting, as if specifically for him.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the figure flash above him, a long fist turning into a longbow drawn to full crescent, with the roar of dragons and tigers overshadowing the tumultuous thunder beneath him.
He couldn’t block this punch. Just by witnessing the preparation of this punch, Fan Yong was certain that he could not escape unscathed. At this critical juncture between life and death, his only choice was to fight for survival!
Casting aside the Wuyi Sect tome that he had not abandoned even in the dark cloud, Fan Yong gripped his blade with both hands and with undivided focus, slashed the strongest strike of his life.
The greenest of greens is blue, and thus this blade, vast like the sea!
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
At this life-or-death moment, this dedicated slash brought Fan Yong to a higher realm. He seemed to feel the breath of the long blade in his hand, the inhale and exhale of the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth, the swallowing glow of the azure blade light, and a brand new world of martial arts was nearly within reach.
Fan Yong laughed because he realized that the insights from this realm were all granted by the Southern Heavenly Emperor, enabling him to slay the invading powerful enemy!
Tang Luo also laughed. He had heard plenty of stories about breakthroughs in the midst of battle, but the one he witnessed with his own eyes was this, and yet, the opponent who became complacent and distracted immediately after the breakthrough, even if they had broken through, were they not still a foolish donkey?
Didn’t this fool consider, were only the punches threatening him?
Confronting the azure blade light, Tang Luo neither dodged nor retreated, only redirecting the iron fist originally aimed at Fan Yong’s face to meet his slashing attack.
The collision of fist wind and blade light caused a blast that tore open the dark clouds in the sky, the thunder ceased, and sunlight cascaded down. The warriors from the Wuyi Sect in the camp finally saw clearly that their Cloud Commander had already reached the man in the mask, with the surging azure blade light seeming to split the sky open.
With such a mighty slash, how could the man in black resist it!?
“Cloud Commander is mighty!”
A few of the Sixth-Rank Flame Leopard Colonels, who followed Fan Yong, thought this and were about to shout in support when they saw that after the dark clouds dispersed, dozens of blue lights trailed by electrical tails struck Fan Yong’s back and exploded into a large cloud of blood mist in front of him.
The Imperial Magnetic Beads passed through the body, and Fan Yong looked down at the large hole in his chest, his eyes filled with disbelief. As he was about to speak, several more blue lights pierced his body.
“Ding ding ding ding!”
“Thud thud thud thud!”
This was the sound of hard bones being crushed by Imperial Magnetic Beads and organs and blood being blasted into a mist.
Blood rained down with organs, and a spirit blade riddled with nicks and cracks fell from the sky, embedding itself in the center of the practice field.
“Bang!”
A piece of rotten flesh fell on the ground of the practice field, sending shivers down everyone’s spines.
A deathly silence spread through the camp, and at this moment, the fierce beliefs of the Wuyi Sect couldn’t give them any courage or strength to face the black-clothed man who descended from the sky.
Tang Luo, landing in the center of the camp, looked at the Wuyi Sect disciples trembling on their knees but was surprised to find a familiar face.
Next to a charred Corpse Refiner was the young man he had seen at Lian Pass. Shifting his gaze inadvertently, Tang Luo surveyed a few martial artists who looked like leaders, and with a hoarse voice full of an indescribable cruelty, said, “I don’t like the living. In half an hour, anyone who stays within the boundaries of Snake Fang Mountain, dies!”
Having said that, he didn’t pay any more attention to the kneeling leaders and walked into the commander’s tent.
Meanwhile, the Wuyi Sect warriors, heeding Tang Luo’s warning, fled Snake Fang Mountain like refugees. In just a short while, the mountain that was once bustling with noise became eerily silent, astonishingly fast.
Inside the tent, Tang Luo cursed inwardly as the camp quickly quieted down, “When it’s time to reason they don’t take it seriously, only after a few are killed do they know fear, lunatics!”
He casually flipped through a Wuyi Sect scripture placed on the desk, but threw it aside after just a few glances.
The Xiehe Human Race was once food for the monsters, earning a chance to breathe only through the selfless and bloody battles fought by countless sages and saints. Even the ancient saints dared not call themselves deities, Tang Luo wondered where the courage of this Southern Emperor came from.
As for the so-called demons from beyond, other than frightening the ignorant and unintelligent populace, Tang Luo couldn’t understand who else would believe such a thing.
Initially, he didn’t want to have any entanglements with the Wuyi Sect, but since they had come looking for trouble, it seemed he needed to teach them a lesson.
Tang Luo’s identity might not be sufficient, but the identity of Gou Chen was most certainly applicable. He had come to the tent to await the arrival of two unwelcome guests.
When Thunderstorm enveloped Snake Fang Mountain, he had clearly seen that besides Fan Yong, there were two top-tier powerhouses of the Fierce Realm on the mountain. One of them was the Bone Taoist, Feng You, whom he had encountered in the Wilderness.
The reason he had driven everyone away was to create a favorable atmosphere for negotiation.
Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour, a daoist priest wearing a white bone mask suddenly emerged from the ground inside the tent and politely greeted Tang Luo, “Gou Chen, a pleasure to see you in good health!”
“Please, take a seat, Daoist Priest Feng You. It’s been months, yet your elegance remains unchanged,” Tang Luo replied indifferently. “But why is it that only you have arrived when the Blood Tower’s Corpse Bone Protector is supposed to join us too?”
“Gou Chen not only has divine martial arts but also such acute spiritual power perception, I am in awe,” said Feng You as he performed a daoist salute to Tang Luo and then smiled, “Master Gu Han indeed accompanied me, but just as you arrived at Snake Fang Mountain, he discovered something odd and went to take a look. He will return shortly. Please, Gou Chen, wait a moment.”
