Chapter 38 (1/2)
Chapter 38: Battle Royale (Three)
Gao Ye was a tall youth and moreover extremely robust. He was nearly as tall as Chu Zhaonan, approximately around 1.9 meters tall, as well. His head was bald, and his muscles were bulging like that of a st.u.r.dy ox. With eyes as big copper bells, he looked at Chu Zhaonan overbearingly.
Chu Zhaonan couldn't even be bothered to give him a glance. From leg wrappings, he coolly took out a gun. It was a small handgun, exceptionally small, one the size of a palm. So small that the brand couldn't be seen clearly, and it was without any runes.
”Hehe… Gao Ye's laugh was raspy, and his voice was like a rusty blade. Atop the arena stage, he didn't make a first move, but rather crossed his arms across his chest and looked at Chu Zhaonan with full interest as the latter leisurely loaded his pistol. He had only filled it with a single bullet, one that was dark green in color.
”Are you r.e.t.a.r.ded?” After waiting no less than a minute, Chu Zhaonan callously blew on the muzzle of the pistol, and Gao Ye sneered.
”Firearms basically can't hit cultivators nor can they kill them. Didn't learn that at the Tianfeng City branch?”
Chu Zhaonan's gaze flit across him, looking down at Xu Yangyi below the stage and suddenly laughed.
”Your show wasn't bad. However, I've got a part here, as well. Although the time was a bit long, it will still be a triumph in style.”
Xu Yangyi laughed. He cross his arms and leaned back against the stone wall, not speaking. Gao Ye had lost… He knew that Chu Zhaonan didn't need a gun. However, he was still a newcomer that didn't understand much regard the cultivation world, so he simply didn't understand what having a gun represented. But while he didn't know, he could perceive that the pistol on Chu Zhaonan's waist was very dangerous… extremely dangerous.
His five senses had already strengthened by third in comparison to ordinary cultivators. Every time his spirit sense congealed over that gun, he kept on feeling a stabbing pain between his eyebrows. This was the manifestation of a danger signal. When had originally kicked Chu Zhaonan on the airplane, he had understood that Chu Zhaonan's body was absolutely unlikely to be much weaker than his. Their realms were similar, and as Chu Zhaonan took out the small pistol, while he hadn't felt a p.r.i.c.k between his brows, he had still felt extremely uncomfortable.
”Since you have such self-confidence…” He whistled a tune: ”Lemme see if you're worth anything.”
Chu Zhaonan could see these words were lip service, and the corner of his mouth faintly turned upwards. In the next second… he had vanished! Gao Ye's vision suddenly intensified, and Xu Yangyi's eyes flashed. The gazes of everyone in the arena were trembling! Moments ago, Xu Yangyi had also been a shadow, but this time, Chu Zhaonan had truly disappeared!
Xu Yangyi sucked in deeply, and his spirit sense rushed forth like a tide. Short of 0.3 seconds later, he raised his head with a jolt! All the middle-stage Qi Condensation cultivators, late-stage ones, and Foundation Establishment cultivators raised their heads without exception. Twenty meters high in the air, Chu Zhaonan's figure astonis.h.i.+ngly appeared!
”Gun Kata…” Chu Zhaonan had at some unknown point taken out two guns in his hand at this moment, a pair of identical silver pistols. He breathed in deeply, and his gaze suddenly sharpened explosively: ”Heartseeker!”
”Swooooosshhh!” In an instant, he revolved into a spinning top from head to toe! However… as he spun, all that could be seen at the center of this camouflaged gra.s.sy-green tornado were the tongues of flames! From ten, they counted to a hundred, a hundred turned into a thousand, and a thousand transformed into over ten thousand! At nearly the same moment, they furiously churned outwards!
”Bang Bang Bang!” in midair, the roar of the hand guns formed a symphony of slaughter! Simultaneously, Shadowslay surprisingly stood up and slightly flicked out with forefinger.
”Buzz!” A gigantic curtain of green light surrounded the arena stage to the innermost sides on all four directions!
”This is…” An old man said slightly surprised: ”Senior Shadowslay used spiritual force to construct a defensive cover? He…” He glanced at Chu Zhaonan in shock: ”Does Senior Shadowslay believe this student can injure the same graduating juniors! Is the distance between them so far?”
”Gun kata!” But at the same time, there were many people that had already recognized Chu Zhaonan's moves and gasped coldly. They immediately defended the juniors of their own family within their spiritual energies!
”Great Grandfather… What's going on?” A young boy looked bewilderedly at the cautious face of his great grandfather in front of him who was also an ancestor of their Song Family and asked incredulously.
”This is a gun kata.” The old man's expression was focused: ”This is an arcane effort, a secret technique he brought himself. The demand for it on the market is at least a few billion! Furthermore, it is uncertain to say its price is without market! It looks stylish and has a reputation of being equally a sure killer… I took a look at this compet.i.tion in advance, and that student's surname is Chu. I'm afraid he has a backer within China's government whose greatness cannot be imagined...”
Gao Ye was already stunned. What Chu Zhaonan had said wasn't of the Hundred Solutions? What was this?
He couldn't see it clearly, but he could distinctly sense it. A countless number of bullets were racing towards his entire body in attack! They seemed to flutter about like honey bees and b.u.t.terflies, but the fact of the matter was that every single bullet's final destination was his heart!
”ARRRGHHHH!” He suddenly roared, and the muscles of his entire body sharply swelled. The camouflage clothing on his body burst apart without warning, and all the veins on his upper body were like rus.h.i.+ng dragons and serpents converging together into the image of a qilin on his chest!
Life Sacrification!
Xu Yangyi's gaze turned a shade grave upon seeing this. A student capable of using life Life Sacrification was absolutely deserving his reputation as a rank one.
”Turtle Burdens!” With his second roar, Gao Ye cross his arms over in front of himself and leaned his body forward. Adding Life Sacrification and Turtle Burdens together, he didn't believe he wouldn't be able to block this confrontation of mere firearms!
Even if he couldn't block it… he didn't have any other move afterwards to use!
”Bang Bang Bang!” Endless tongues of fire spewed out resplendent fireworks up in the sky like a fountain of flames. As all the bullets were on the verge of making contact with Gao Ye, countless tiny ripples suddenly appeared before him at the same time.
