Chapter 88: Blade

When Chu Huailiang was alive, he had a nickname — White and Black

“White” referred to his white Sky-Rending Blade, while “Black” referred to the blade that Cloud Leopard ielding at the moment

This blade’s naed with theas a base and was supplemented with Chaos Gold mined from the Northern Sky Mountain As a result, it contained the boundless hatred of the Dark Shark King within it

If a person was struck by this blade, the Dark Shark King’s killing intent would surface and begin devouring the victim’s life force Because this intent was invisible and difficult to detect, the blade had been aptly named Darkness Extermination The blade’s corrosive properties were alainst, even if one possessed Heart Walls

However, there was one critical flaith the blade — because the hatred within it was too great, anybody with a powerful consciousness could easily sense it Su Chen could clearly sense it, and that Seventh-Ring Arcana Master could sense it as well The obvious response, then, was to not let the opponent touch you no matter what

But Cloud Leopard was incredibly swift His blade flowed like the wind as it slashed towards his opponent repeatedly, its rown up on the street, where a person’s status was deter ability He had never learned any orthodox co style was naturally verythrough the sky and controlling his y, histo deal with as always

In co Arcana Master was obviously raised differently

There was no way he was a real Hunting Wind Bandit; rather, he was h status Even in coraceful

He wielded a jade green staff inlaid with rubies With each wave of his staff, a siht would envelop his body Shortly afterwards, countless vines would snake out from his body, blossom, and cause flower petals to rain down fro; even if each petal was infused with a dense killing intent, anyone who saw them would feel no threat

Cloud Leopard, however, was like a wild boar that was tearing up this flower garden He ra many of them However, there were so enerated after being destroyed, the wild boar couldn’t eliminate all of them no matter how hard it thrashed about

Even so, Cloud Leopard continued to dart around violently, Darkness Exterht

In response, the Seventh-Ring Harpy continued to su a strange quality with it Under normal circumstances, this storm of petals would drastically reduce an opponent’s speed, but Cloud Leopard’s Arcana Reversal Technique allowed hi any speed As he continued to agilely leap through the air, the Seventh-Ring Arcana Master was forced to divert more and more attention to his retreat

In that sense, Arcana Masters were quite skilled Their teleportation skills and evasion techniques were quite incredible Any Fifth-Ring Arcana Master or above would have one or two such teleportation techniques in their arsenal, which was very different from most humans Su Chen’s Whitetower Teleportation would definitely be considered a rare skill ast the human race But to the Arcanists and their heirs, these kinds of escaping Arcana Techniques were relatively coh Taking advantage of the space created by evading attacks and then counterattacking was their key to victory

Arcanists were used to fighting on the e of petals, and his staff continued to call down illusory beasts that snarled and snapped at Cloud Leopard These beasts were mostly projections of real beasts that had been repeatedly suh the stor Arcana Master’s use of the storm of petals to obstruct Cloud Leopard’shim with the beast projections was quite beautiful, but the co intent

However, Cloud Leopard still continued to charge forward!

Charge!

Charge!

Charge!

No matter what technique his opponent threw at hi through everything in his path His movements were incredibly simple, sharp, and effective

The petals were ripped to shreds, and beast blood spilled everywhere

Even as the flowers in the sky bloomed and withered, Cloud Leopard continued to advance relentlessly

The Seventh-Ring Arcana Master soon realized that, no matter what kind of technique he used, he was cohtest

He constantly advanced, the gap between hi moment

This was because the Harpy needed to do too s — he needed to attack, defend, delay, and retreat all at the same time On the other hand, Cloud Leopard only needed to attack Even if the opponent was a Seventh-Ring Harpy as incredibly agile and could deftly activate all his skills, such an opponent could not coht was to advance

The Harpy was thus forced to change tactics and give up on attacking

The shooting stars flying through the air were the first to disappear

However, he quickly discovered that that was not enough His speed was still inferior to that of his opponent, so the next thing he gave up on was obstructing Cloud Leopard’s movements After all, his opponent had the Arcana Reversal Technique anyways, so no amount of obstruction would be effective

The storrind to a stop as well

This allowed hi away, so the distance between hi much more slowly

However, he soon discovered that that was still not enough Cloud Leopard’s attacks only grew fiercer once the storone up, Cloud Leopard seeap between the two of them continued to slowly close — just not as quickly as before

Finally, the Harpy was forced to give up on even the beast projections

This was finally enough to stop the gap between the any further, but then he discovered that, because he had co, the situation had devolved into Cloud Leopard chasing after and hacking at him while he continually tried to escape It basically looked like a Light Shaking Real him to run around like a little squirrel

This was sily!

What kind of Harpy was he?

A Seventh-Ring Arcana Master!

That was already superior to a Light Shaking Real Real chased around like this by a Light Shaking Realed to wound him yet, and had actually been quite badly wounded by the attacks he had suffered while trying to close the gap Strictly speaking, he was at a disadvantage However, outsiders would only see the great Seventh-Ring Harpy, Thousand Heavens, being one-sidedly chased around by a hu Realm cultivator The shame he felt was blatant for anyone to see

Harpies were arrogant by nature, and Harpy nobility even more so

Thousand Heavens was no exception It was impossible for hier in his heart surged, his body began to glow a lareen light, all the living organisan to rapidly wither and decay

Withered World!

That was the na it a “world” was a bit of an exaggeration, especially since its area of influence was only a thousand feet However, it was h to deal with any opponent as foolish enough to try and engage in close-quarters combat with him

Harpies hated close-quarters combat, and they hadthemselves
