Chapter 1338: Indestructible Diamond Physique (2/2)
Xiong Qianbei was scared out of his mind and stepped back. Luckily, he had incomparable experts with him, or else he wouldn’t dare to come here even with nine lives.
“Squeak—” A human skeleton took out its saber and slowly walked towards the daoist.
“Clank!” Once it got close enough, it slashed downward with a celestial slash that flew across the sky. This was a slash that wouldn’t disperse for a long period of time.
Just how terrifying was this? This saber had signs of rust and withering spirituality. Even though it was once an invincible blade, time had turned it into a piece of sc.r.a.p metal.
Nevertheless, this saber scar in the sky was indicative of the skeleton’s power, not the blade. But how could such a creature unleash this terrifying slash? Where was its power coming from?
The blade struck the daoist’s body, causing sparks to fly everywhere. The daoist’s metallic body was completely unhurt, not even a little mark was left behind.
It wasn’t because the skeleton was weak. A paragon would die instantly if they were struck by such an attack, but not Daoist Puresun and his unbelievably powerful physique.
“Clank! Clank! Clank!” The skeleton unleashed a storm-like barrage on the daoist. Each slash could sever the void. Sparks went flying, but the daoist remained unharmed.
“Screech!” The phoenix skeleton also flew up with a cry. It opened its mouth and spewed true sunfire on the daoist. However, this all-burning flame just seemed like water flowing through him.
“Rawrr!” The giant beast roared and bolted for the daoist. Its huge claws slammed into him. His body seemed to be a fly stuck under its might.
Its sharpness could destroy a mountain range, but the daoist was once again untouched by the attack. The rest of the skeletons noticed this anomaly and all crazily unleashed their onslaught on him.
The daoist hands joined together to form a cross. He let the skeletons attack as they pleased with their sharp claws, blades, spears, and poisons… All of these weapons found it difficult to leave a mark on him. Only a wondrous sword left behind a shallow mark.
The strongest blow struck his shoulder. One could hear the snap of breaking bones; his shoulder actually caved in. However, the wound suddenly melted like water and regained its original form.
Not only was this physique invulnerable, even if a mighty attack managed to harm it, it would recover instantly. This meant that it was impossible to leave behind an injury, let alone kill the user.
Xiong Qianbei was a fan to see the daoist withstanding all of these powerful attacks. Others wouldn’t be able to do so. Ruyan and Jians.h.i.+, on the other hand, weren’t too surprised to see this physique being so untouchable. They were more curious about the skeletons.
Jians.h.i.+ commented: “They have been dead for so long now, just a bunch of dried bones without any divinity, so why are they still so strong?”
Li Qiye insipidly replied: “Because this is the Bonesea. They were very powerful when they were alive. Even as bones, their old power, flesh, and blood were left for this land. Their stubbornness is also eternal, allowing them to be strong. Leaving the Bonesea would make them lose many things.”
“Young n.o.ble, can you control these skeletons?” Ruyan chuckled with a charming wink.
Back at the War Cliff, Li Qiye controlled many skeletal corpses, so she became curious to see if his ability could affect these skeletons as well.
Li Qiye looked at them and replied: “It’s possible, but due to this being the Bonesea, it would be very problematic. It would require many steps as well as certain necessary items.”
