Chapter 246: Eternal Melody (III)
Two bolts of ardent blade intertwined, and spiritual energy was released all around. As the swords carrying Shining Sunlight Strike were intertwined, forming a cross-cut, they welcomed that bone sword.
A distant boom followed along, with the appearance of fireworks of bright light, illuminating the surroundings in an area of a hundred meters square meters.
Long Haochen shot up, carrying Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light in hand and issuing a dragon cry-like buzzing sound as his whole body glinted gold, and the Soul Linking Shackles’ vitality was brought out. At this time, his companions on the side of the mountain were more than willing to receive a part of this blow’s damage.
The skeleton’s blow had truly a terrifying offensive power, and in fact, Long Hachen’s attack contained the four abilities Ripples of Light, Shining Sunlight Strike, Sunlight Fire and Instant Blast Cross Cut, consuming a massive amount of spiritual energy, along with the utility of Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light. And yet, such a terrifying blow had been forcibly broken, and this was under the premise that this skeleton’s blow was far from being as well prepared as his.
Now, Long Haochen could be completely sure that if not for the fact that it was Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light that faced this skeleton and that its weapon wasn’t good, he would probably already be finished! The two blades were snapped, but if it was the Holy Spirit Sword that faced it instead, it would probably have been broken to naught.
His two hands’ thumbs having just been fractured, his arms felt limp and painful.
This skeleton is harder to handle than I expected. It looks like not only its spiritual energy that reached the sixth step: it’s the same for its abilities. Besides not being able to fly, this skeleton is exactly like a Radiant Knight of the sixth step.
However, the skeleton wasn’t any better off from the exchange than Long Haochen. Its bone blade of mediocre quality was already broken to chips, and Long Haochen’s Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light, left a deep trace on its chest. With the blazing sunlight fire that was burning its body, this skeleton could at last be considered to be heavily wounded.
This was just one of the two, but what about the other one? Long Haochen barely stood up, transferring the spiritual energy in his body to his eyes, sweeping a glance at Haoyue’s direction.
Then, his previous unhurried look immediately became completely dull.
With a bang, that skeleton was sent flying by Haoyue’s tail, sweeping at its waist. Being sent flying, it struck the skeleton that suffered from the sunlight fire’s burning power, and these two simultaneously turned into charcoal.
How can Haoyue’s physical combat ability be so powerful? This was the first thought he had when seeing Haoyue use his body to launch an attack. Immediately following, the next thing he saw was a repeated bombardment of spells. Low ranked spells of the light element, fire element, wind element were launched against these two skeletons like wind and rains, and although it wasn’t sufficient to destroy them, its might was enough to suppress them, making them unable to move for the moment.
Long Haochen took a deep breath, thinking to himself that by now, Haoyue should at least be a magical beast at the peak of the sixth step, in cultivation level, and these were spells of the third step! Without consideration for the equipment and in terms of strength, he wouldn’t necessarily be a match for Haoyue! From his look, his external spiritual energy ought to be formidable, at least surpassing him by miles.
At that moment, Long Haochen felt a warmth rapidly spreading throughout his body, leading the uncomfortable feeling he had from the skeleton’s blow to disappear. All the bones in his whole body were overflowing with warmth, and the pain coming from his arms also lessened a lot. Even the wound on his thumb stopped bleeding.
It was without a doubt the Pendant of Eternal Melody that gave Long Haochen such a powerful ability of self-recovery.
Without any hesitation, Long Haochen grasped Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light that twinkled in his hand as that skeleton’s body was suddenly illuminated. As a dragon cry could lightly be heard, Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light turned into a blue and yellow dual-color, shooting up its brilliance in a conical trajectory.
It was Bright Rain, Thrusting Hibiscus.
As he launched the attack, Long Haochen carefully surveyed the surroundings as well as the consumption he had from using this skill. To his pleasant surprise, he discovered that with Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light’s evolution, the consumption of spiritual energy from the attack was greatly lowered, and although it still consumed 2,000 units, it wasn’t an attack that would make him lose all his fighting strength after launching it a single time.
But instead of being reduced along with the consumption of spiritual energy, the might of the Bright Rain, Thrusting Hibiscus had become even more tyrannical.
Originally, this attack combined the two elemental radiances to produce a formidable penetrative power, but this time it wasn’t same. Soaring in the air, the blue radiance disappeared gradually, completely blending into the golden radiance, aiming at the target at once. That skeleton’s whole body suddenly turned icy white, surprisingly froze.
Bang!
That skeleton that was having a hard time trying to extinguish the fire was immediately turned to ashes, and Bright Rain, Thrusting Hibiscus, spread a blue ring around, even delaying its companion and enhancing the bombardment of spells launched by Haoyue.
At long last, they had gotten rid of one.
Long Haochen finally loosened his breath, and at that time, an eerie scene happened. A white glow appeared in front of Long Haochen, appearing like a bolt of lightning, and Long Haochen used the Holy Spirit Sword to block it unconsciously, but upon collision, this white glow seemed not to be stopped in the slightest, blending into Long Haochen’s body in the next instant. Immediately, a cozy warm feeling filled his chest.
Long Haochen hastened to survey his own body, finding out to his astonishment that on the side of the Saint Spiritual Stove floated a white liquid, that was particularly pure.
