Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The awakened Li clan Forefather and Li Xuefei found themselves in a pinch at Heavenly Snow Mountain as they were surrounded by the a.s.sa.s.sins.
“Four Mystical Art Solar Shot, Scarlet Phoenix!”
The Li clan Forefather released an arrow from his bow.
The divine beast, Scarlet Phoenix, appeared as the arrow flew out. However, that technique was a fire-attribute technique, so it did not match the Frost Dao that he cultivated.
Although he could cast it out of force, the power was a lot weaker than his other arrow techniques.
Even so, the fiery arrow was more than enough to deal with the a.s.sa.s.sins as blazing feathers spread across all directions.
He was trying to carve a path for Li Xuefei to escape.
The Black Blood Tower Master saw through his intention as well. Hence, he swung the saber in his hand and unleashed another saber ray that stirred up a raging wind, which grew in a matter of seconds and blocked all the fiery arrows.
“Blood Carnage Slas.h.!.+”
Once again, he made a move, and this time, he finally used his cultivation technique. The technique was an Immortal Technique that he had cultivated.
A dark red saber ray was unleashed with a single swing from his saber.
The look on Li clan Forefather’s face turned bitter, and he quickly pulled the string of his bow again.
“Four Mystical Art Solar Shot, Azure Dragon!”
The qi from the unleashed arrow formed the avatar of a furious Azure Dragon.
Unfortunately, the furious Azure Dragon was no match against the bloodthirsty carnage qi from that terrifying saber ray. Just like that, it was shattered into pieces.
On top of that, the saber ray managed to hit Li clan Forefather, sending him flying backward.
“The Four Mystical Art Solar Shot is nothing impressive.” Black Blood Tower Master scoffed.
“Oh really? How about giving mine a try?”
A cold voice echoed in the sky all of a sudden, followed by two arrows drawing an arch across the horizon.
One of the arrows transformed into the Scarlet Phoenix.
The Scarlet Phoenix expanded its wings, and its feathers turned into tens of thousands of mystifying fiery arrows. When the arrows struck the a.s.sa.s.sins, they burnt more than half of them alive.
In the meantime, the other arrow transformed into the White Tiger.
The White Tiger’s roar was as loud as rumbling thunder that shook heaven and earth.
The Black Blood Tower Master’s pupils shrank all of a sudden as he swiftly unleashed the dark red saber ray at the incoming White Tiger. The vast Emperor qi and Daoist pattern crashed at the arrow, like the torrential tide.
When the two powerful forces clashed in the air, a tremendous explosion erupted and spread throughout the whole of Heavenly Snow Mountain.
Black Blood Tower Master was pushed back more than a hundred yards. Then, he stared at the s.p.a.ce in front of him.
Ahead of him was a figure in white robes, traversing through the air. The look on the figure’s face was cold, his gaze was calm, and he was armed with a purple bow. The energy around him was otherworldly.
The figure was none other than Chu Kuangren, and behind him were the members from the Li clan.
“Elder sister!”
The moment Li Xueying saw Li Xuefei, she dashed over instantly.
Li clan Forefather looked at Chu Kuangren in awe and disbelief. The Four Mystical Art Solar Shot that Chu Kuangren cast was a lot stronger than his own.
On top of that, the purple bow was definitely something powerful. It might be even stronger than his own Frost G.o.dly Bow.
‘Wait a minute.’
‘He has a sword at his waist?’
‘Does it mean he is skilled at Sword Dao as well? Since when did the Li clan have such an archer?’
“Sword Poet Immortal, Chu Kuangren, you are finally here.”
The look on the Black Blood Tower Master looked a little different upon Chu Kuangren’s arrival.
However, his words left the Li clan Foremaster baffled and confused.
‘His family name is Chu?’
‘In that case, he’s not one of the Li clan. He’s really an audacious one to bear the t.i.tle of Immortal.’
Chu Kuangren looked at the Black Blood Tower Master. Two entirely different yet powerful qi clashed in an instant.
“It seems like you are expecting me.”
“Indeed I am,” Black Blood Tower Master said with a grin. “I am waiting to… kill you!”
As soon as he said that, the aura he emanated got stronger. With a cold killing intent mixed in the blizzard around him, the temperature plummeted further.
The members of the Li clan who arrived were shocked to see the Black Blood Tower Master’s presence. All there was in their eyes was fear.
“Kill me? Many have said the same, but now every one of them is having a party in the other world,” Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle. The disdain in his eyes was obvious.
At the same time, Lil Ai, the Omniscient Spirit, was activated.
He was able to a.n.a.lyze the Black Blood Tower Master thoroughly from top to bottom, and to his surprise, the Black Blood Tower Master before him was just a clone.
Not only that, but he seemed to have the Heavenly Dao energy within him.
He was a Planet Ruler!
Intrigued, Chu Kuangren said, “A clone with the Heavenly Dao energy? You have given me quite the surprise.”
Black Blood Tower Master’s pupils shrank upon hearing his words. “How? How do you know?!”
One thing worth noting was that the clone was a very powerful one. It was even the exact copy of his true form. He had spent countless effort and ingredients to forge this clone. He practically forged another exact copy of himself.
No one had ever found out that he was a clone, yet Chu Kuangren was able to do it with a single glance.
Chu Kuangren’s sharp insight deterred him a little.
“Rumor has it that the Sword Poet Immortal possesses unusual methods and has a countless number of ace cards. It seems like the powerful perception is one of them,” Black Blood Tower Master said after he calmed himself down.
“There is more to me than meets the eye,” Chu Kuangren said calmly.
He raised the Violet Immortal Bow, pulled the string, and the arrow formed above his hand. In a single breath, the Four Mystical Art Solar Shot was unleashed.
All four apparitions of the divine beasts manifested and went after the Black Blood Tower Master.
Unparalleled power tore even the void around the man together with the a.s.sa.s.sins beside him.
The power of the arrows caused the members of the Li clan to gulp in awe, including Li clan Forefather.
“To think an outsider can cast such a strong Li clan Immortal Technique! He’s stronger than any of us!”
“This is unbelievable!”
Amidst the awes, a b.l.o.o.d.y saber ray was unleashed.
“Blood Carnage Slas.h.!.+” Black Blood Tower Master swung his saber, and the vast saber ray shattered every single one of the divine beasts into pieces.
Then, his figure flashed with an inconceivable speed, so fast that no one present was able to capture his movement with their eyes.
In the next second, he appeared in front of Chu Kuangren.
“No!” Li clan Forefather cried in shock.
Melee combat was dangerous for an archer.
“Die!” Black Blood Tower Master struck out with his saber.
It was at that moment, the Descendant Self Sword at Chu Kuangren’s waist unsheathed itself. The sword ray shone, and the energy waves of the Imperial Monarch Sword Art burst instantly.
The sword and saber collided.
The Black Blood Tower Master was blasted off a few hundred yards backward before cras.h.i.+ng into the mountain range of the Heavenly Snow Mountain.
A loud bang later, the mountain range crumbled, and a huge crater formed. The Black Blood Tower Master was found on his knee in the center of the crater with a serious expression.
“Say, did I give you the wrong impression? Other than my bow, I still have my Descendant Self Sword here,” Chu Kuangren said plainly.
An archer who could not fight up close would not be a good archer.
Compared to his newly learned archery, Chu Kuangren’s sword technique and melee combat were a lot more powerful.
“Sword Poet Immortal, Chu Kuangren, I wouldn’t miss out on your sword,” Black Blood Tower Master said with a scoff.
Then, a layer of armor appeared around him. As the Emperor qi around him surged, countless ghouls in his company wailed.
However, at the next moment, his surroundings were transformed into purgatory h.e.l.l.
Terrifying carnage qi wreaked havoc across the realm. Even Li clan Forefather had a serious look on his face.
“What a terrifying Carnage Dao! The King of a.s.sa.s.sins, the Black Blood Tower Master, he sure lives up to his name!”
With the ghouls around him, Black Blood Tower Master gripped his blood saber and stared at Chu Kuangren. He scoffed and said, “Chu Kuangren, I shall show you the power of my Immortal Technique, Carnage Vision!”
