Chapter 511: Holy-Attributed Witch Fiend

A dim light sparkled in the dark sea; this was Xiao Chen’s Lunar Shadow Saber.

Xiao Chen’s face lit up in joy as he revealed a wide smile. He stretched his hand out and the Lunar Shadow Saber quickly swam back to him.

“Xiu!”

The Lunar Shadow Saber increased its speed until it arrived before Xiao Chen. Then, he grabbed its hilt and returned the saber to its scabbard.

“Lunar Shadow, Lunar Shadow, no matter where you go, even if it’s to the ends of the world, I will always find you and retrieve you.”

Xiao Chen grasped the saber tightly and promised resolutely. The stifling feeling the saber gave off when he held it immediately lessened.

[TL note: I am guessing the stifling feeling is a result of the Lunar Shadow Saber not accepting him yet. Do remember that there are two Weapon Spirits in the Lunar Shadow Saber and one of them has not accepted him yet.]

“Wu! Wu!”

Suddenly, a strange sound rang out in the surroundings. Xiao Chen frowned and raised his guard. He extended his Spiritual Sense and discovered that there were many sets of skeletons around him.

These skeletons were different from the ones in the shallower waters. They did not drift on the current. Instead, they seemed to be deliberately moving towards Xiao Chen.

There were even two dim lights in the eye sockets, like they were alive.

“Quick! Leave! These are Witch Fiends, which are formed by the resentment of Demons and humans. Don’t get trapped by them.”

Leng Yue’s anxious voice came from the Spirit Blood Jade on Xiao Chen’s chest.

Even without Leng Yue’s warning, Xiao Chen also felt something strange about these skeletons. So he quickly swam upwards.

However, it was already too late. There were too many Witch Fiends. They had surrounded Xiao Chen for some time now.

Five or six skeletons descended from above. They held b.a.l.l.s of fluorescent light in their hands.

When the skeletons were only five to six meters away from Xiao Chen, they threw the b.a.l.l.s of fluorescent light at Xiao Chen. These penetrated Xiao Chen’s Essence s.h.i.+eld and entered his forehead.

Immediately, wailings of ghosts and wolves resounded in Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness. The b.a.l.l.s of fluorescent light turned into malicious spirits that sapped Xiao Chen’s Mental Energy.

“Oh no! It is a mental attack.”

Xiao Chen focused himself and quickly gathered his Spiritual Sense in his sea of consciousness, turning it into a dazzling golden deity.

The golden deity held a sharp sword, which gave off a dazzling sword light. Then, it killed the malicious spirits in the sea of consciousness one by one.

When all the malicious spirits disappeared, the sapped Mental Energy returned to Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness. It even seemed that the Mental Energy in the sea of consciousness became stronger than before.

“Ka ca! Ka ca!”

When the malicious spirits in Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness died, the Witch Fiends blocking him shattered. Then, they quickly shriveled into nothing in the dark depths of the sea.

Leng Yue, who was within the Spirit Blood Jade, was greatly startled at the sight.

Although these were the weakest type of Witch Fiends, even a Martial Monarch would not find it easy to deal with such mental attacks.

Xiao Chen was merely a Medial Grade Martial King, yet his Mental Energy was so ridiculously strong. No wonder he could wake from from her charms with just a thought.

Xiao Chen understood what happened. He smiled faintly, making up his mind to stay here longer.

The mental attacks of these Witch Fiends were completely useless against him. Instead, he ended up swallowing their Mental Energy as well. Mental Energy was not easy to cultivate. It would be too wasteful to allow this opportunity to slip by.

After one hour, all the Witch Fiends blocking Xiao Chen fled in every direction. They avoided him like he was the plague.

Xiao Chen laughed rambunctiously as he chased after the Witch Fiends. If they had only mental attacks, he would not be afraid of them.

“Boom!”

While Xiao Chen chased the Witch Fields happily, a bright light burst out in the darkness, illuminating the bottom of the sea, clearing the eternal darkness.

A bright glowing skeleton walked out of the light. Every single bone on this skeleton was like jade, looking like a very exquisite piece of art.

There were two bright lights in the skeleton’s eye sockets, giving off an unexpected sense of holiness.

“Pu ci!”

When the jade Witch Fiend saw Xiao Chen, it swung its skeletal hand forward. A beam of light turned into a sharp knife and headed for Xiao Chen, slicing the water apart as it did so.

“This is an Advanced Witch Fiend—and a rarely seen holy-attributed Witch Fiend at that. You do not stand a chance. Leave quickly!”

This Witch Fiend could make its Mental Energy solid and achieve such a level of might. Xiao Chen agreed that he was no match for it. The instant the light appeared, he immediately swam upwards.

“Hu! Hu!”

The Advanced Witch Fiend swung its hands several times and light knives made of Mental Energy quickly headed towards Xiao Chen.

The light knives sliced the scarlet sea like tofu, separating the water into pieces that drifted apart.

How is that slicing water? It is slicing s.p.a.ce apart!

Understanding what happened, Xiao Chen felt dread in his heart. It looked like he had kicked an iron board this time. He should not have been too greedy for Mental Energy.

Friend, since you are here already, why leave? Suddenly, a solemn voice rang in Xiao Chen’s mind.

The Advanced Witch Fiend pointed at Xiao Chen’s head and sent out nine beams of light. Then, the beams of light turned into a cage, heading for him.

When the cage dropped towards him, the s.p.a.ce in its way seemed to shrink, trapping him within it.
