Chapter 160: Gap
Xiao Chen’s expression did not change as he opened his fingers. The huge, black fist imitated the actions and turned into a palm with outstretched fingers.
“How can this be? Without the inherited Martial Spirit of the Yan Clan, it would be impossible to execute the Dragon Seizing Hand. How could he have learned it?”
Under Yan Tianzheng’s disbelieving gaze, the huge hand smashed down on him, crus.h.i.+ng him violently to the ground. He vomited a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Chen looked back, and the Azure Dragon in his body roared angrily. A boundless Essence flowed into his right hand, and he struck out with the Lunar Shadow Saber. There was a strong wind as he flung the three people in the air away.
A bolt of lightning descended from the sky; the Lunar Shadow Saber lit up with a resplendent light. Xiao Chen quickly executed Drawing the Saber. This was the Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Saber Technique that was almost at the Great Perfection.
This strike was as fast as lightning. It carried a chilled wind as it chopped the person preparing to sneak attack from behind him in half.
When the three Biyun Peak disciples saw their companion being chopped in half at the waist by Xiao Chen, they felt a chill in their hearts at the shocking scene.
They were stunned for a moment before they grasped their sabers tightly once again and rushed over. Xiao Chen smiled faintly and took a step forward. Another bolt of lightning flashed in the sky as Xiao Chen’s momentum slowly built up.
Facing the three Biyun Peak disciples rus.h.i.+ng forward, Xiao Chen grasped his saber handle tightly. He casually swung it, and a resplendent arclight appeared; it was flickering with electricity.
“Bang!” Xiao Chen shouted, and the arclight vibrated violently.
It gave off a loud sound and generated an intense shock wave as it exploded. The three cultivators were immediately blasted back.
There were footsteps coming from behind them; the remaining three cultivators were coming at him from behind. Xiao Chen ignored them, and he soared into the air, accompanied by a crackle of thunder.
Xiao Chen had already perfected this Rus.h.i.+ng Heaven Chop. His body seemed to tear through s.p.a.ce, creating a rainbow-colored light.
The rainbow-colored light disappeared in an instant. After a long silence, there was a loud boom. It pierced through a cultivator and blasted him to smithereens.
Xiao Chen paused strangely in midair, standing on nothing. Crackles of thunder kept blooming behind him. The sound waves reverberated within the surroundings, causing the leaves of the trees in the dense forest to fall.
Because he did not want to be distracted, Song Qianhe had not been paying attention to the fight on the other side. Now that Xiao Chen created such a commotion, he could not help but take a look even if he did not want to.
In the end, after he took a look, Song Qianhe turned pale. He originally thought he could deal with Xiao Chen easily. However, Xiao Chen had already killed three Biyun Disciples and even had the upper hand.
Liu Suifeng and Chu Xinyun were also astonished at Xiao Chen’s strength. They quickly obstructed Song Qianhe, preventing him from going over to help. The fight between the three of them became even more intense.
Song Qianhe became even more anxious; his blows became heavier, causing the two of them to retreat. However, after the Chu Xinyun revealed her true strength, there was no problem in dealing with Song Qianhe’s attacks.
“Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Chop!”
Xiao Chen shouted faintly, and the saber exploded in light. He was like a bolt of lightning, descending from the sky and landing on a Biyun Peak disciple’s head. The Lunar Shadow Saber chopped down, creating a ‘ka ca’ sound.
The Spirit Weapon that cultivator used to block with immediately broke into two pieces. The Lunar Shadow Saber did not stop after that, splitting this cultivator into two halves, vertically down the middle.
Seeing the two people beside, Xiao Chen did not stop to rest. Connecting his moves smoothly like flowing water, he executed the Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Second Chain Chop.
Xiao Chen’s momentum now raised to its peak. The feeling he gave off was like that of a thunder G.o.d.
With the momentum carried forward from the previous four moves, the saber now carried an extremely huge force behind it. It was also extremely fast; it was unblockable.
“Shua!” The two cultivators to the side were cleanly chopped into halves. The resplendent energy electrocuted them until they were charred black.
“Three more to go,” Xiao Chen withdrew his saber and stood upright, the momentum he acc.u.mulated slowly disappeared.
The remaining three cultivators were now completely terrified; they wanted to run but were unable to do so. They were afraid Song Qianhe would cause trouble for them if they did. If that happened, they would be in for a terrible time in Biyun Peak.
“His Essence should be almost exhausted; there is no need to be afraid!”
The three of them consoled each other as they rushed at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen smiled faintly as he suddenly became a blur. The Lunar Shadow Saber turned into three, and his speed immediately doubled.
“This is the Three Flowing Cloud Images; how did he learn it?!”
This was a Secret Technique only the true inheritor of Biyun Peak could learn. After it reached the Great Perfection, it would be equivalent to an Earth Ranked Martial Technique. The three of them could not understand how Xiao Chen executed it.
The three of them were caught off guard as Xiao Chen moved past them smoothly, leaving behind horrifying wounds on them; blood gushed incessantly.
“Interesting,” Xiao Chen murmured to himself. He did not expect the Three Flowing Cloud Images to be so mighty the first time he executed it using the Battle Sage Origin’s Changing Character Formula.
It was as gentle and quiet as flowing water, yet it had the might of a surging river; gus.h.i.+ng incessantly but moving as it was willed, resulting one to be unable to follow it with their eyes; this was the Essence of Three Flowing Cloud Images.
After he executed the Three Flowing Cloud Images, Xiao Chen experienced a sudden comprehension. This was a miraculous state; it was something that could be found but not sought.
