28 A Treasure Appearing (1/2)
What fine archery.” Wang Xue praised after seeing three simultaneous arrows pierce the body of the boulder sect disciple, ”Three shots all in the vitals.”
The three arrows were deeply ingrained on the boulder's sect body, he was struck on the left shoulder, left knee, and on the middle of his abdomen, however, even with this kind of injuries the boulder sect disciple had yet to die and even with the violent foreign energy invading his body he still struggled to stand on his feet.
”HA!” with a loud shout his golden hands glowed with resplendent golden light, his spirit energy became vigorous and full of life and then, he tried catching the arrow that was heading his way.
Bang!
Another explosion occurred, red and golden light shout out everywhere, the debris' flew everywhere and crash to the giant white trees that stood in the White Scales Forest, the snow turned to steam as the ground cave in.
”Show yourself, coward!! All this time you have been hiding in the shadow disgracefully trying to kill me with these petty tricks!!” Blood was oozing out of his body, but he was still as energetic as if the damage on his body was nothing to him.
His loud voice was heard all over the place, however, no one answered back to him and not one arrow flew at him it was as if the assailant who had been chasing and picking him off from before had finally given up on him, he should have been happy but he knew the reason why the attacks stop.
'What a sly fellow.' Watching the bloody image of the boulder sect disciple Wang Xue had an idea why the attacks suddenly stop, 'He's waiting for him to die, huh' he mused.
The attacker did not stop his salvo of attacks because of pity rather it was because the amount of damage given was enough and Wang Xue was clearly able to see this point. The Boulder Sect disciple may have high vitality but he will die soon after his body calms down.
'The raging spirit energy inside him is the only thing that's keeping him alive, his intestine was pierced by the arrow and---and that is not normal at all.'
Thud!
Like what Wang Xue had thought the Boulder Sect disciple fell to on the ground, he kneeled on the ground with both of his knees and felt his meridians being corroded by foreign energy, he tried using his spirit energy to suppress it down but alas he failed in the end.
Feeling his body his meridians were filled with raging spirit energy and no matter what he did to make it calm down something was keeping him from doing so, blood climbed up his urethra his body didn't have much strength anymore and by now he had completely lost control over his spirit energy making him incapable of holding back the blood coming out of his mouth.
”Argh...” Black colored blood burst out of his mouth accompanied by some internal organs that had been corroded by the foreign energy, ”Poison!? Sh*t this is bad.”
Seeing the black blood the Boulder Sect disciple finally realized that the arrow that it was not normal at all and his body was already corroded, nonetheless he didn't want to die so with a flip of his right hand he took out a red talisman with some runes written on it.
He didn't waste any more time and was about to crash it with his bare hands but the sound of arrows tearing the air sounded out once again after it had stayed silent.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two pierced both of his hands, and his right hand that clutched the talisman was also pieced by the arrow destroying it in the process. With the arrows nailing him on the ground the boulder sect disciple was put in an awkward position with his posture looking like he was prostrating.
”Argh, damn it you coward, how low can you get?” he bellowed to his surrounding using all of his remaining strength, he knew his life was going to end and he could not do anything about this impending death no matter what he does the fact that his body was poisoned was not going to change and now that his last hope of escaping was lost the only thing that he can do now was to wait for his death.
His heart was filled with hate from the fact that his enemy used poison to kill him, but the fact that he was not even able to see the person who killed nor did he see his shadow made the Boulder Sect disciple feel horrible, and in the time of his death, his vision started turning dark and after a couple of seconds his last breath was gone.
No sound was heard all was silent, even the wind didn't blow, the silence was so prevalent that if a needle was to be dropped at this time even Wang Xue who hid above the trees will be able to hear it, then the sound of the wind being torn broke this silence.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two arrows flew, the arrow didn't carry any color nor was it coated with spirit energy it was just an ordinary arrow fired by ordinary means. The arrow turned a beautiful arc on the air as it gracefully descended from above to the back of boulder sect disciples head.
Thud! Thud!
Two clear sounds of the arrow piercing the skull and hitting the brain were clearly heard… now it was clear that the boulder sect disciple was truly dead without any doubt.
