Chapter 49: Great Whitejade Palm (2/2)

“Great Astral Thunder Sword technique!” Bai Ziyan suddenly whispered and the sword that was in the middle of the sky immediately unleashed astral swords, hundreds of metres in length, one after another. At the same time, all of them contained powerful traces of the power of thunder and lightning. The astral swords cleaved while thunder and lightning tore all to pieces. The Divine Goldenlight Net became like icy snow that had encountered a raging fire, melting immediately. It did not take long before the astral swords tore a large hole on the net.

“Not good! You actually managed to condense out Sky Lightning? Raging Dragon Takes a Detour!”

Sage Goldenlight shouted and sprayed out essence energy from his mouth. The badly damaged golden net, seemingly having come in contact with celestial dew, began growing at a maddening rate. Its threads became as thick as arms, akin to the muscle fibres of a dragon, indestructible in quality and capable of entangling all. It evaded the sword and flew towards Bai Ziyan, moving to envelop her.

Sage Goldenlight had used Innate Gold Essence, melding it with Flaming Silk and various other yao beast hides and muscles to create the Divine Goldenlight Net. It had also accompanied him as he overcame Lightning Tribulation to be upgraded to a Prized artefact. Normally, he could easily capture enemies and yao beasts using this net.

As the net was about to envelop Bai Ziyan, her jade-like hand rapidly shot out, slapping out at the net while still floating in the sky. A 10-metre long handprint silhouette appeared in the middle of the sky. Although it was just a silhouette, the lines on the palm of the silhouette appeared vivid. The knuckles on the palm could be clearly seen, even the blood vessels and meridians underneath the skin and flesh was clear for all to see. It appeared like a real palm.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

The Divine Goldenlight Net instantly released sounds of explosions. Every inch of the net exploded. This time, the net was not simply broken. Rather, it exploded, transforming into ashes. Every time the Divine Goldenlight Net exploded, Sage Goldenlight’s expression would turn even more distorted.

That was his lifebound magic treasure, which was connected to his own state of mind. The destruction of the magic treasure meant damage to his own divine sense.

“Great Whitejade Palm! How unexpected. You have not only condensed out Sky Lightning but also successfully learned the Great Whitejade Palm. Consider today an unlucky day for me. Since things have come to this, I will take my leave first,” shouted Sage Goldenlight. With a wave of his hand, he collected the Divine Goldenlight Net and turned, wanting to flee.

“Trying to leave now? Too late!” After saying that, Bai Ziyan took one step and her figure flashed through space. Gripping her sword, she then slashed out at Sage Goldenlight. Beam after beam of golden light appeared to form a curtain up in the sky, which then shot towards Sage Goldenlight, enveloping him.

Bang!

The clothes on Sage Goldenlight were smashed to pieces and blood scattered all over the place. Although he looked to be in a miserable state, it was not life-threatening. At the same time, blazing flames ignited from his body, turning him into a flaming human. Then, he increased his speed and continued to flee into the distance.

“Combusting the Soulflame to improve your strength to escape?” Bai Ziyan furrowed her brows and was about to give chase when a large, golden-coloured toad suddenly appeared. The toad charged at Bai Ziyan. It was none other than the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad that Sage Goldenlight had captured back in the pool. It was unknown just what methods Sage Goldenlight had utilized to control it. Now that he was in danger, he threw the yao beast out to serve as a shield.

The Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad opened its mouth against Bai Ziyan and a powerful ripple spread out. It was none other than the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad’s magic skill, the Golden Toad Ripple, a move capable of breaking rocks and shattering high-quality steel.

“Get lost!”

Bai Ziyan waved her hand to unleash another Great Whitejade Palm, striking the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad like striking a ball, causing it to smash heavily onto the ground to create a deep crater.

However, the one moment of delay allowed Sage Goldenlight to completely escape.

“Forget it. He has already suffered from one Great Astral Thunder Sword blow and even combusted his own Soulflame. After escaping, he will need to enter cultivation retreat for quite some time,” said Bai Ziyan coolly.

By then, Chen Feng had already made his way out from the cave. He came out just in time to see Sage Goldenlight getting beaten until he was forced to retreat. Chen Feng’s heart was secretly shocked.

What powerful sword energy! And then there is that great palm. It could so easily send the big toad flying. It probably has enough power to shatter a small mountain. Chen Feng thought to himself.

“That person was probably tracking you. Now that he has been wounded by me, it will not be easy for him to recover within a short period of time. And now, I need to leave as well. You take good care of yourself. I will tell you this though. Black Origin City is too small. If you want to gain some achievements, you should go out and take risks,” said Bai Ziyan as she looked at Chen Feng. Then, her figure swayed as she made to leave.

“Please wait!” Chen Feng hastily called out.

“Is there anything else?” Bai Ziyan asked coolly.

“Thank you, Miss Bai. Be it the matter of telling me about the world or chasing my enemy away for me, when I have the strength, I will definitely repay this favour,” said Chen Feng with a serious tone.

“We’ll talk about it when you have the strength,” said Bai Ziyan with a smile.

After that, Bai Ziyan no longer said anything. Her figure flew through the sky as her white clothes fluttered and she quickly disappeared into the distance.

Chen Feng watched absent-mindedly as Bai Ziyan disappeared. Only after some noise rang out did he recollect himself.

The battle earlier had attracted the attention of some cultivators from Black Origin City.

“Hurry, look there! There is a big ass toad there!” A cultivator at the astral energy (6th) layer exclaimed as he looked on in amazement at the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad, which was the size of a small mountain.

“Hurry, run for it! This is a yao beast, the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad! Not even Concealed stage experts could kill it,” an old and highly experienced cultivator quickly shouted.

“What is there to fear? It seems someone has struck this yao beast senseless.”

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Several cultivators emboldened themselves and rushed before the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad. Pulling out their weapons, they struck the surface of the Greenjade-eyed Gold Toad’s dark golden skin, causing sparks to fly out.
