Chapter 192 - Certain Death in One Slash! (2/2)
Dongmen Yingyang had read through the information and knew that Little Wingsy had sent Nie Qingyun packing in one blow. Although Dongmen Yingyang was vicious, he had crawled out from a pile of dead bodies after all. He knew that underestimating the enemy was akin to suicide. After evading Little Wingsy’s attack, he swung a fist into Little Wingsy’s body.
There was a loud “bang”. Dongmen Yingyang felt his fist go numb from the impact, yet Little Wingsy was completely fine and was throwing another punch at him. Dongmen Yingyang thought to himself, this kid was just like what the information stated – his body was matchlessly sturdy. Dongmen Yingyang immediately dodged Little Wingsy’s attacks a few times and roared furiously. A Heavenly Venerable fighter’s roar rumbled over long distances like thunder.
After Dongmen Yingyang’s roar had reverberated throughout the forest, a few distant energies quickly dashed toward this direction.
Ye Chen’s Astral Body followed the sound and saw that Little Wingsy had already clashed against Dongmen Yingyang. Nonetheless, he did not have to worry about Little Wingsy at all.
Qi Diao and the other five had heard Dongmen Yingyang’s roar and changed their expressions.
“General Dongmen has found them!” Qi Diao exclaimed in excitement.
“Let’s go!” The six of them were about to take off when a white figure flashed from a nearby thicket. They suddenly became absent-minded.
“Now’s the time!” Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. A Celestial Chi Flying Dagger had condensed in the air and he waved his right hand.
With a swoosh, a streak of light bolted out between the gaps of the leaves, shooting straight toward the Earthly Venerable fighter named Qi Diao.
That streak of light was swift and graceful, arriving in a flash!
Within this light, there was a decisive killing force. It was like the cold gaze of the Grim Reaper.
At this moment, a burst of terror bubbled up from deep within all six of their hearts.
It was the terrifying sensation of their Spirits being collected!
Pftt – a torrent of blood blossomed on the brow of the Earthly Venerable fighter named Qi Diao as glorious and dazzling as a red spider lily. The flame of his life was abruptly extinguished.
A hundred shots, a hundred hits – certain death in one slash!
Hidden within the thicket was Ye Chen, his body slightly arched as if he was a mighty hunter watching his prey closely. Ye Chen knew that the Celestial Chi Flying Dagger was not fast enough. An Earthly Venerable expert could still dodge it easily, but when Ye Chen had coordinated with Little Tanuki, an Earthly Venerable Rank fighter could forget about escaping his attack!
The remaining Earthly Venerable fighter and the four top Tenth Level fighters were so shocked by Qi Diao’s death that their hearts skipped a few beats and they broke out from the hold of Little Tanuki’s Illusion.
“An enemy’s attack!” the Earthly Venerable Rank fighter yelled in rage and lunged in the direction where the Flying Dagger had come from.
The four top Tenth Level masked experts raised their hands, aiming the black holes of their sleeves right at where Ye Chen was hiding.
Swish swish swish!
Swish swish swish!
A dense mass of needles glinted icily in the air, piercing down upon Ye Chen’s hiding place like a rainstorm. The tips of the needles had a faint green luster. Clearly, they were dipped in poison.
Ye Chen was shocked by this secret weapon and quickly responded. Like a cheetah, he leaped away and evaded the needles, then formed another Celestial Chi Flying Dagger in his hand out of thin air. The Flying Dagger left his hand and shot toward the Earthly Venerable Rank fighter.
The Earthly Venerable fighter harrumphed in fury. He was about to dodge to one side to evade the Flying Dagger when his heart suddenly clenched. The scene before his eyes changed at once. A few gigantic mystical beasts were racing toward him. A thought flashed in his mind – it was an Illusion again!
Little Tanuki was mentally linked to Ye Chen and her timing of wielding her Illusion had reached its peak. An Earthly Venerable expert would be able to break free from Little Tanuki’s Illusion in a few short seconds if they were prepared. However, their train of thought would be involuntarily affected by Little Tanuki.
After being caught in the Illusion, the movements of the Earthly Venerable fighter would be slightly delayed.
A moment of delay like this was the difference between life and death to a fighter.
There was a hissing sound and blood spurted out. Ye Chen’s Celestial Chi Flying Dagger had pierced through the Earthly Venerable expert’s temple. The Earthly Venerable expert’s formidable Pure Yang Construct was like paper-mâché against the penetrating Celestial Chi Flying Dagger. It had shattered upon contact!
Another Earthly Venerable fighter had fallen.
Standing at the end of a tree branch, Little Tanuki breathed in and huffed out a few times. The surroundings were immediately shrouded in a thick fog.
The four top Tenth Level experts could only sense a figure flitting past in the fog. However, in the next moment, they could not seem to sense anything.
The literal translation here would be “the flower of death”, which refers to the red spider lily associated with or acts as symbolic of death in certain cultures.
