AST 1744 - Blocking the arrow, life-or-death? The unusual change that took place to the Yin-yang Image (2/2)

Like a pair of scissors, Qing Shui charged forward with the Golden Battle Halberd in hand.

Mighty Elephant Stomp!

At this moment, the Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant abruptly stomped on the ground. The Golden Scaled Dragon Elephant’s stomp had already instilled fear in the Ocean Demons as earlier, it was precisely this battle technique that instantly killed one of the most powerful men among them. This was precisely the outcome Qing Shui wanted. Despite his anger, he still wouldn’t try to go toe-to-toe against multiple opponents at once, even more so when the opponents’ formation was still in effect.

Nine Palace Steps! Great Reversal!

Qing Shui instantly switched position with one of the Ocean Demons and immediately struck out his Golden Battle Halberd. His strike was as fast as lightning. It was one of the techniques from the Basic Sword Technique, but compared to before, its strength was at a whole different level.

The Ocean Demon couldn’t figure out how Qing Shui appeared right in front of him and why his comrades be so far away all of a sudden, and it quickly fled. This was a serious mistake.

Since Qing Shui was considerably faster, had the Ocean Demon attempted to block the strike and had his allies aid him in time, he might have a chance to survive. But now, there was no way he would get through this alive.

Pu!

He immediately was pierced through by Qing Shui. After that, Qing Shui once again made his move.

Nine Palace Evasion!

By now, the Dragon Slaying Beast was already fighting beside Qing Shui. Despite his anger, he could see everything around him very clearly. Even the slightest movement in the surroundings couldn’t escape his eyes. It felt as though everything was in slow motion.

Yes… This was the effect brought forth by the Yin-Yang Image…...

With his eyes closed, Qing Shui was able to precisely grasp the movements of his opponents. Just like having a third eye which could detect activity in slow motion, he was able to see the people around him clearly.

Just like now, even though a sword shadow was approaching him from the side silently, Qing Shui still remained calm and didn’t move. As the Sword Qi had a very domineering aura, Qing Shui had long felt the chilliness emitted from it and dodged with an unbelievably agile movement. He then abruptly unleashed the Golden Battle Halberd in his hand.

The battle between elites was quite similar to when two ordinary people fought against each other, but the strength and speed were far more exaggerated. When strength reached a certain stage, it would begin to generate Qi waves: Sword Qi, Origin Qi, Origin Energy Wave or even causing the Origin Qi itself to start to take a form of its own. When a person cultivated his Five Elements Technique up to a certain stage, the elements would begin shaping their own forms. When a fire-attributed power became powerful to a certain extent, it would condense into fire and as it power increased, the fire would also become more intense.

At this moment, Qing Shui was able to advance and retreat as he pleased in between his opponents, which still caused him to be quite agitated. Could this be an unusual change in the Yin-yang Image?

But whenever he thought of the Sunset Palace Mistress, he was unable to feel happy.

The Ocean Demon from before immediately was swept off by Qing Shui. Even though he had used his weapons to block against Qing Shui’s attacks, he still suffered quite a heavy injury.

Nine Palace Step!

It was only now that Qing Shui realized what it felt exactly like to be a duck in water. Standing in front of him, all of his opponents were totally helpless.

This was a kind of Great Perfection Stage and it also represented an unusual change in his Yin-Yang Image. This had triggered a change in his Nine Palace Step, while the Nine Continents Mountain was still the same and only changed when its ability was used together with the Yin-Yang Image.

It’s just like driving a car, but driving on a wide and flat road instead of a bumpy one. This would result in a significant change in the car’s efficiency.

The car, in this case, was the Nine Palace Step and the change in the Yin-Yang Image on the other hand, was the bumpy road turning into a highway. This was how it had its current efficiency and speed. Without the car, whether there was a bumpy road or a highway, there would be no difference.

For now, Qing Shui was able to advance and retreat as he pleased and the Golden Battle Halberd in his hand was like a golden dragon. Time after time, it was able to disrupt the opponent's teamwork. Soon after, yet another Ocean Demon died by Qing Shui’s halberd.
