Chapter 942: The Canary Behind the Mantis Preying on Cicada
“Boom!“
Amidst the loud explosion, there was a puncture on the weapons torrent. A figure jumped out directly, opened its hand, and grabbed towards the demonic saber.
It was the agile Crown Prince Crocodile. He caught up immediately with the demonic saber that traveled in a light streamer. He was determined to acquire it, and he would never allow it to slip out of his hands.
It was of paramount priority to obtain a splendid martial art instrument. Even the Supreme Elder of Law Manifestation realm in the clan lacked Earth Level martial art instruments. One could imagine how precious these Earth Level martial art instruments were. It was something that could only be acquired through fate.
If he could have a handful of Earth Level martial art instruments, he would surely be able to dominate many young experts. During the last time Ye Xiwen had escaped from him, he had failed to s.n.a.t.c.h the Emergence Immortal Exterminating Saber away. For him, it was a humiliation.
If Crown Prince Crocodile got his hands on Emergence Immortal Exterminating Saber, he would even dare challenge the top Transcendent Realm Ninth Level experts. At that time, he would be the number one among Flourished Cloud Sea Region’s younger generation.
It was useless for Crown Prince Crocodile to regret now. Though, he managed to let it go easily.
He had only one creed. Since he did not s.n.a.t.c.h it that time, he would grab it the next time. There was a scary burning corpse previously. He thought Ye Xiwen would suffer terribly at the subsequent encounter.
He probably did not expect that the ant he could previously kill quickly also grew little by little.
“Huala!“
With a shriek sonic boom, a sound arrow pierced the vast sky and shot towards the Crown Prince Crocodile. It was Si Konghao who had been waiting on the side to attack.
“Crown Prince Crocodile, don’t think about it!”
“d.a.m.n it!” Crown Prince Crocodile felt an alarming wind rus.h.i.+ng behind him. He turned around instinctively, reaching out his hand, and burst the sound arrow with a grasp. This sound arrow, which could quickly nail a Transcendent Realm expert to death, was not a threat to him at all.
Though, this attack also achieved the purpose of stopping Crown Prince Crocodile. He became farther away from the demonic saber. The demonic saber possessing some intelligence could sense the terrifying strength within Crown Prince Crocodile. It decided to flee immediately, knowing that it was outmatched.
“d.a.m.n, Si Konghao, do you want to die?” Crown Prince Crocodile roared and speeded up. He was determined to acquire the demonic saber, and yet Si Konghao stopped him multiple times. What happened agitated Crown Prince Crocodile deeply. He found it unbearable.
Of course, it would never come across Crown Prince Crocodile’s mind that Si Konghao was here first, and he was the one seizing it later. For him, as long as he found it, it was his.
“Haha, Crown Prince Crocodile. Since I can’t get it, you can’t get it either!” Si Konghao laughed aloud. He directly fanned out a terrifying hurricane, pus.h.i.+ng back the attacking Yi s.h.i.+.
Si Konghao’s anger in his heart already soared to the sky. It was evident that he found it first, but Crown Prince Crocodile was now s.n.a.t.c.hing it away from him. He would not stay silent about it.
On the other side, Yi s.h.i.+ and E Xing pounced together to halt Si Konghao. They would not allow this human to have the opportunity to deal with Crown Prince Crocodile. It had already brought shame to them when the human managed to deliver an attack on their master.
Although Si Konghao was among the Top 10 in the list, they did not expect to be so strong.
None of the duos were on the Top 100 List. Naturally, they disdained the Top 100 List completely. Except for Crown Prince Crocodile, they would not bat an eye on anyone else. Even those in the Top 10 were only at Transcendent Realm Eighth Level.
In their actual encounter, they realized that those ranked at the bottom of the Top 100 List were nothing in their eyes. However, the Top 10 were veritable existences. Having Transcendent Realm Eighth Level Peak, they forced the human into constant retreat. However, the human was suppressing them. With their joint efforts, they still had no openings to defeat and kill the human. Si Konghao’s combat strength was powerful. Without Crown Prince Crocodile, they would not be able to defeat him.
Soon, Crown Prince Crocodile approached the demonic saber again.
“Chang!” An astonis.h.i.+ng saber aura imbued with boundless demon aura slashed towards the Crown Prince Crocodile as if it would kill him alive.
Crown Prince Crocodile quickly avoided this saber aura. He slanted his figure and continued his pursuit again. He clutched countless water-attributed powers in his hands and grabbed the demonic saber.
Immediately, he felt countless resentful spirits and wild ghosts above the demonic saber; all of them surged into his mind, making him feel restless. It was a demonic saber that harvested the lives of many beings, after all. After cultivating in a place full of demon aura like the sealed site, it had become a saber occupied with demon aura.
The average warriors would not be able to utilize this weapon. The demon aura would erode their mind quickly, turning them into a madman only capable of killing. If Crown Prince Crocodile were willing to accept the transformation coming from the demon aura, this demonic saber would not mind controlling a puppet.
But, Crown Prince Crocodile refused to become a puppet. He screamed coldly. Robust qi sweeping out from his body in ripples. It directly suppressed those demon auras.
Crown Prince Crocodile was a prominent figure. He would not bat most people in his eyes. The long saber in his hand fluctuated violently in an instant. The countless demon auras had all faintly turned into a demon. With the long saber as the medium, the demon swallowed Crown Prince Crocodile.
The demon slammed his punches on Crown Prince Crocodile’s face, not intending to give him any chance to fight back.
Crown Prince Crocodile had to let go of the long saber and turned around to avoid the fatal blow. The Human Level martial art instruments could exert Transcendent Realm attacks, let alone the Earth Level martial art instruments. Although Crown Prince Crocodile was ambitious and confident in himself, he dared not underestimate the Earth Level martial art instruments.
Since there was no one controlling the demonic saber, the power it exerted was limited. Though, being pushed to the edge, it delivered mighty damage.
As soon as Crown Prince Crocodile released the demonic saber, the demonic saber accelerated again and broke free from the Crown Prince Crocodile. His fundamental goal was to escape from the Crown Prince Crocodile.
“Come back here!” Crown Prince Crocodile spread out his hands, and countless qi began to sweep out in circles. A compelling attraction force enveloped the demonic saber. Sure enough, the demonic saber that was flying away fast just now was fixed on the spot. It could not move even an inch, floating in the air.
“Haha, sure enough, only I’m worthy of this demonic saber!” Crown Prince Crocodile grinned. Although he was used to spear, there was no pressure on him to major in saber technique. With his talent and martial art realm, he could cultivate the saber technique to a very high level in a short period.
With the mighty saber, he was confident to be the champion in the Top 100 Compet.i.tion.
In the Vanis.h.i.+ng Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan, there were not only the secret spear techniques but also the saber technique of Elite Human Level.
With the Elite Human Level saber technique and the Earth Level demonic saber, he had high confidence in eliminating the young experts.
He flew towards the demonic saber slowly. As he held the demonic saber still, it brought tremendous pressure on him. He was unable to fly freely as he outputted vast amounts of qi at all times. As such, he had to be extra careful and not as unscrupulous as before.
“Chang!“
“Chang!“
“Chang!“
The demonic saber continuously releases a series of threatening saber auras, trying to cut off the qi cage. However, all its effort was futile. Crown Prince Crocodile’s qi was endless, like continuous sea waves. As the demonic saber slashed off a wave of qi, the next wave would surge forward immediately.
“Roar!“
There was a faint horrible roar coming from the saber. It should be the slightly souled martial art instrument roaring. He could feel the danger lay within Crown Prince Crocodile; it was an instinctive perception. In the context of a souled martial art instrument, most warriors would erase the intelligence that lay within it. The exception would be warriors who had absolute control, such as Ye Xiwen or beast soul sword. Otherwise, when the souled martial art instrument ambushed at the critical moment, it would be a bitter regret.
What’s more? For a figure like Crown Prince Crocodile, a majestic character, how could he allow this to happen? He would kill the hidden dangers while it was in the cradle. That was his style.
The souled martial art instrument also seemed to know that once Crown Prince Crocodile caught it, it would not be able to escape the fate of being wiped out. Hence, it struggled violently, absolutely not letting itself fall into the Crown Prince Crocodile’s hands.
Not far away at this time, Si Konghao also started to be anxious. If Crown Prince Crocodile s.n.a.t.c.hed it, then all his effort would be futile. He would rather have the saber escaped with both him and Crown Prince Crocodile left with empty hands.
But at this time, Yi s.h.i.+ and E Xing seemed to realize that it was the most critical moment. They reinforced their effort in entangling him tightly, preventing him from having any chance to make a move.
So, he could only watch the Crown Prince Crocodile getting closer and closer to the demonic saber.
Immediately, there was a cheer coming from the Vanis.h.i.+ng Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan’s group.
“Prince, behind you!”
Crown Prince Crocodile heard the warning. He did not have time to react, but he could only feel a swift figure flying past him and directly grabbed the demonic saber stopped in the air.
“Boom!” The figure grabbed the demonic saber that was struggling frantically in mid-air, cut off all the prince’s qi, and flew away into the void.
Looking at the familiar figure and that pair of wings behind the figure…
Crown Prince Crocodile’s eyes turned bloodshot immediately; he roared.
“Ye Xiwen!!!”
