Chapter 496 - Twelve Shadows Final Kill (2/2)

More than a dozen people of the Pure Mind Sect in the distance were all shocked. Senior Brother Liu had the highest cultivation in the sect, so how could he be attacked so easily from behind? At this moment, everyone looked at Chu Qi. She took the Full Moon Blade that flew back and was about to attack Liu Qing. The man in purple exclaimed, “Senior Brother Liu, be careful!”

Liu Qing landed on the ground. His hair was scattered all over his shoulders and his eyes were bloodshot. He had never been in such a sorry state before. He had never been kicked away in front of so many Junior Brothers and Sisters. Furthermore, her cultivation was so much lower than his!

In a flash, Chu Qi came up again, but this time, Liu Qing did not dodge. His eyes were red, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of faint golden light in an instant. Xiao Chen was shocked and shouted, “Chu Qi, be careful!”

However, Chu Qi had already come to the front of Liu Qing. All of a sudden, the True Energy in Liu Qing’s entire body shook. A monstrous force instantly erupted from him, directly shattering the stone and wood within the 100 feet radius.

Chu Qi was also sent flying by this sudden and ferocious force. In terms of strength alone, she was ultimately inferior to Liu Qing, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.

“Argh!” Liu Qing’s long hair fluttered in the air. With a deep roar, he raised his palm. Suddenly, a gigantic golden handprint appeared in midair and slammed down on Chu Qi. This time, he had truly used the power of a peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. The wind howled all around him, and even the distant crowd could feel the terrifying power.

“Chu Qi, watch out!”

Xiao Chen was worried that the continuous consumption of energy for Chu Qi would be too much, and would not be able to resist the violent Liu Qing. He was about to take action, but the moment he moved, he suddenly felt a great pressure. This pressure came from the top of a mountain in the distance, which made him faintly unable to breathe.

It was a strength that was at least at the peak of the Apotheosis Realm!

Xiao Chen’s heart sank. He had been spied on by this person using mystic arts earlier. He did not doubt that the latter would attack him the moment he made a move. A cultivator at the peak of Apotheosis Realm who did not rely on pills could almost instantly kill him. Even Guifeng would not have a complete chance of victory.

“Boom! Boom!” The sound was like thunder, and the whole forest trembled. Liu Qing slammed one palm after another, and the nearby woods were destroyed in an instant, and countless handprints that were several feet deep appeared on the ground.

Chu Qi was calm and avoided these deadly attacks again and again, but it was not easy for her to get close to Liu Qing. Suddenly, she stretched out her body and shouted, “Twelve Shadow—Final Kill!”

The Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon focused on assassinations. It was rare that before an attack, they would use their shouts to run their True Energy. As her shouts came to an end, she suddenly split into twelve and instantly transformed into twelve shadows that charged at Liu Qing from all directions.

Everyone was shocked. They had only seen twelve shadows, but what Liu Qing had seen were twelve figures with different appearances. They were very real people, and each of them had the same attack power.

It was the Ultimate Skill of the Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon. To perform this, the other eleven people must be absent. Even if one of them was present, one could not use it. The other eleven people who were transformed by this technique had almost the same attack power as the original one. That was to say, this attack was comparable to the joint attack of the twelve people of the Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon.

The wind howled and rocks flew in all directions. The twelve figures arrived in a flash, causing Liu Qing’s expression to change drastically. When he was about to dodge, he realized that all directions had been sealed off. There was no breakthrough point.

“Swoosh!” With a sharp sound, a bloody wound appeared on Liu Qing’s arm. Immediately, fresh blood sprayed out, followed by his chest and back. In an instant, his entire body had already been cut open by over ten bloody wounds. Immediately, his body was covered in fresh blood.

The expressions of the remaining ten or so people in the distance changed drastically. “Senior Brother Liu!”

However, without waiting for Liu Qing’s counterattack, the twelve figures suddenly merged into one again and slashed towards his neck. This strike was extremely ferocious. It was obviously a deadly blow, and Liu Qing was certain to die!

At this moment, Xiao Chen felt a strong aura approaching. He shouted, “Be careful, Chu Qi!” Before he finished his words, he had already moved to the back of Chu Qi.

“Poom!” A loud noise shook heaven and earth, and everything within the 100 feet radius was turned into powder. Chu Qi and Liu Qing were also pushed away by a powerful force at this moment. The crowd was shocked. It was Xiao Chen and a gray-robed old man who had suddenly teleported had their palms against each other.

The remaining force spread out, but it still made people suffocate. In the distance, more than a dozen disciples of Pure Mind Sect exclaimed in unison, “Elder Xu!”

This was the competition between Pure Mind Sect and the Heaven Heart Pavilion, but with the protection of an Elder of each sect, so that the disciples would not be attacked by high-tier Demonic Beast. Generally speaking, Elders would not easily show up until the last moment.

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s long hair was fluttering, and he was still in the palm-to-palm position with the old man in the gray robe. He did not even take a step back. It was not until then that those dozen disciples of the Pure Mind Sect in the distance realized that he could fight with Elder Xu without being hurt at all. “Could this unassuming young man have even higher cultivation than the girl? Has he already reached the middle stage of the Nirvana Realm?”

All of them gasped in disbelief. It was beyond their wildest imagination that a man of the same age as them had reached the middle stage of Nirvana Realm!
