Chapter 896 – The Hopeless Situation After Three Sword Techniques

Chen Changsheng knew that even if he used all his moves, it was impossible for him to block these cold waves of silent extinction.

He had only one choice: retreat.

The problem was that an expert of the Divine Domain could freely travel through the world, their speed greater than could be imagined by a normal person. Only extremely talented people like Nanke, Xu Yourong, or Jin Yulu might be able to barely maintain such a speed for a period, but who could be faster?

Wuqiong Bi flew up in front of the platform, her horsetail whisk on the verge of descending.

Chen Changsheng suddenly vanished and appeared several dozen zhang away in front of the mountain path, Stainless Sword in hand.

Wuqiong Bi's intimidating pressure continued forward, the aura of silent extinction enveloping the world as it pressed forward. The mountain path suddenly crumbled, countless cracks spreading across the stone steps.

One could see a vivid sword glow over the plateau. Chen Changsheng appeared at one end of this sword glow, already two-hundred-some zhang away.

The Qi of silent extinction pursued him like a harrying rain cloud.

When he was just about to be struck by this Qi, Chen Changsheng disappeared once more. Carrying an awe-inspiring sword intent that could tear through the air, he arrived at a stone outcrop on the edge of the plateau.

Wuqiong Bi's horsetail whisk had still not been able to descend, as it had failed to lock onto his body.

He did not have the speed of Nanke or Xu Yourong. He was able to move so quickly because he was not using a movement technique, but something that he was most skilled at: sword techniques.

At the moment that South Stream Temple's sword array fell into disorder and Wuqiong Bi flew through the sky, he had unsheathed the Stainless Sword.

And then, he had unhesitantly used three sword techniques. There was no pause in this process, not even a thought required.

These three techniques were the True Sword of the Orthodoxy, the final move of the Mount Li Sword Style, and Hanging Sunset of the Three Forms of Wenshui.

These were the three most resolute sword techniques he had mastery over. Of course, he also added the Yeshi Step into the mix.

Everyone who saw this was deeply shocked.

Many people knew that Chen Changsheng was talented in the sword, with some people even willing to call him a grandmaster of the sword, despite his age.

However, not many people had personally seen him use a sword. Only today did they realize that the Pope's cultivation in the path of the sword was truly unfathomable. In the face of a full-force attack from an expert of the Divine Domain, he could use his sword energy to move around, his response seemingly natural and unrestrained.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Changsheng was several li away, at the edge of a cliff. He had succeeded in avoiding Wuqiong Bi's most furious killing move.

But his sword energy was exhausted, and even worse, he had been pushed by Wuqiong Bi into a geographical dead end. How could he continue to retreat?

Wuqiong Bi flew to the sky above him. Her pressure was a little weaker than before, but her killing intent was even greater!

The world resonated with her, dark clouds enveloping the mountain, causing the light to dim.

A harsh and spiteful howl tore through the dark clouds, resounding through the world.

”Die!”

She waved the horsetail whisk down towards Chen Changsheng.

The threads of the horsetail whisk crackled with tiny arcs of lightning as they madly beat against the air.

These arcs of lightning illuminated her pale cheeks, stained through and through with loathing. She seemed like a ferocious ghost, striking fear in the hearts of onlookers.

Right when the horsetail whisk was about to hit Chen Changsheng, a sword glow once more swept across the gloomy sky.

This sword glow was not particularly bright, and actually seemed rather dim, but it gave off a rather reliable feeling.

The Stainless Sword had already been joined with the Vault Sheath, turning into a long sword.

This was the strongest form of the Stainless Sword, and it was also the form Chen Changsheng would choose whenever he was in a hopeless situation.
