Chapter 1064 - Counterattack (1/2)

The Sorcerer Soul Warhammer was a well-known Primordial Soul secret technique of the Sorcerer Clan. Many cultivators from the Sorcerer Clan could cultivate this technique. Still, while its use was widespread within the clan, there were only a few who could wholly and successfully cultivate the technique. The cultivation was difficult because only those with deep cultivation of their Primordial Soul could succeed.

It was why the crowd at Yingyun City had been gripped in shock and apprehension when they saw that the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer summoned. They were all very aware of the power of the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer. Had it been a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator, perhaps he might have been able to resist it, but this was merely a Tide Changing Realm cultivator. And a Tide Changing Realm cultivator would find it extremely challenging to face the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer!

And now anyone could see that the glowing golden light streaking in swift flight, though extraordinary, was not one from a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator. Its aura was far from it, and he was, at best, a Tide Changing Realm later stage cultivator. This level of cultivation meant that his Primordial Soul might not have achieved a level that was powerful enough to resist the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer.

This particular Primordial Soul secret technique was a difficult one to evade. Although that golden flowing light was miraculously quick, it would not be able to avoid the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer even if twice as fast.

The Muhong City Mayor’s lips twisted into a cruel smirk. For a mere Tide Changing Realm cultivator to attempt to charge right through him was folly, he was only overestimating himself.

Huai Hongxiu’s eyes glinted with fierce determination from where she stood on the Yingyun City watchtower. She took a step out and, in an instant, soared beyond the perimeter of the city walls, heading towards the direction of the golden light. The golden light streaking towards Muhong City would plunge to a horrific crash the moment the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer hit it, so she would have to catch it in time before it hit the ground. The golden streak of light was now less than 100 miles out of Yingyun City, so she was likely to reach Mo Wen before the Muhong City Mayor could smite with his Warhammer.

“First young mistress…”

“First young mistress, you can’t…”

The crowd in Yingyun City did not expect their first young mistress to leave instantly, even before they could respond. They wanted to hold her back, but it had already been too late.

Beyond the walls of Yingyun City, a fell presence emerged from the nine heavens and descended ominously from the sky. The Sorcerer Soul Warhammer had arrived, and it emanated a foul and profoundly evil aura. It was a massive weapon, entirely black and engraved with mysterious carvings of the Sorcerer Clan’s divine creatures.

WHOOSH!

The Warhammer seemed to exceed the restraints of space and time, and in an instant, it appeared before the golden light and smashed right into it.

Lo and behold! Upon colliding into the brilliant streak of golden light, the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer was no more!

It plunged into the vast sea like a falling rock, vanishing upon contact with not a ripple.

The golden streak of light carried on with its flight, unhindered nor thrown off its course. It flew true to its trajectory and appeared right in front of Yingyun City in a flash. It sped toward the first young mistress who had soared out of Yingyun City, and the two beams of flowing lights almost collided.

The first young mistress blanched. She had initially expected the young man and her little sister to both fall way beyond the city, but how did they appear right in front of her in just the blink of an eye? Did the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer not strike their Primordial Souls?

It was not just the first young mistress who was astonished. Still, every single person in the city was in a stupor as well, including, and even the Muhong City cultivators, who had witnessed the scene from below, were astounded.

“How could this be!” the Muhong City Mayor asked again, staggered.

To think his Sorcerer Soul Warhammer had utterly no effect on Mo Wen! Ever since he started cultivating the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer, it had always served as his trump card. It had always provided him with about the desired effect, even in his battles against Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators.

Mo Wen glanced at the first young mistress who greeted them, then spoke calmly, “Return to the city. Not even ten Muhong City Mayors will be able to stop me, let alone the one outside.”

It was quite the audacious claim. Ten Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators could not stop him, a mere Tide Changing Realm cultivator? The crowd would have just treated that as a joke had it been any other time, but in the present circumstances, everyone turned to look at one another. No one said anything, because that scene they had all just witnessed had been too unbelievable. That was the Muhong City Mayor, and yet his hands were, undeniably, tied by a mere youth.

The Huai Clan first young mistress had by now recovered from her initial shock, and seeing her sister was right there in the hands of a strange young man, she hurriedly pulled her close over.

“Older sister!” Tears filled the Huai Clan second young mistress’ eyes. She had thought that she would never see her older sister again.

“Let’s go into the city. This is no place to be chatting.”

The Huai Clan first young mistress appeared unusually stern as she looked at her younger sister—her sister was just too willful, but she said nothing at that moment. She pulled her younger sister close to her, then flew into Yingyun City. They were right outside the city, and no one was stopping them now.

Mo Wen, on the other hand, did not fly into Yingyun City immediately. He turned to look at the Muhong City Mayor, who was still reeling from what he had just seen, unable to fathom why his Sorcerer Soul Warhammer did not have any effect whatsoever on Mo Wen.

“It’d be rude not to return the favor. I think you should take a blow from me as a courtesy, Muhong City Mayor,” Mo Wen remarked mockingly.

Without another word, the space around him swirled strangely, and as he summoned his Sword Qi, it emitted beams of brilliant, white light, forming into what appeared to be a ring of silver light. The brilliance eddied magically around the white Sword Qi—this was the light of the Sea of Spiritual Flowers.

The Divine Sword of the Primordial Soul was one of the three great techniques of the Divine Soul Trillion Layers. Although he had only managed to cultivate the first level, its power was still something to marvel. It was the strongest of Primordial Soul-type secret techniques.

“Primordial Soul type secret technique!”

The Muhong City Mayor’s face twitched as he focused his gaze on the white Sword Qi. From the white Sword Qi, he could feel an aura that made his soul tremble. A Primordial Soul-type secret technique! The sword Qi was a secret technique and was rare even amongst immortal cultivators. And only those select few could successfully cultivate Primordial Soul-type secret techniques.

Everyone in Yingyun City was shocked as well, and they could not believe that an unknown Tide Changing Realm cultivator had grasped such a terrifying Primordial Soul-type secret technique. The Sword Qi was giving off an aura that made their very souls shiver, and it seemed to even more terrifying than the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer.

Mo Wen pointed his weapon in front of himself and a surge of energy from the Sword Qi instantly blasted from its tip. Tens of thousands of white-hot blades of light shot forth, and the force of it all was overpowering.

Like the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer, it exceeded the restraints of time and space, and in a fiery wake, appeared right in front of the Muhong City Mayor, all in the blink of an eye. The Muhong City Mayor did not deal with the attack with the ease Mo Wen had when he comfortably knocked down the Sorcerer Soul Warhammer. At this point, the Muhong City Mayor’s face was extremely grim as he felt the terrifying force, one capable of altering his soul, coming from that Sword Qi.
