This sudden rain of Flying Needle Hidden Weapons was undoubtedly a huge threat. Even a strong realm practitioner in the Sky Apex Fourth Layer, who was two realms higher than Bai Shaochuan, would not fare well against it. Without paying so price, it was impossible to pass unscathed.
Unfortunately for the attacker, Ling Chen was no ordinary Top Sky Apex Strong. He was Ling Chen. Compared to experts of the sa level, he possessed no weaknesses. Faced with the sudden onslaught of flying needles, his Sword Intent surged, breaking free from the shackles of the Will of Heaven and Earth, and he t the attack head-on with his sword.
TING TING TING TING TING!
All the needles raining down like a storm struck Ling Chen's Red Sky Sword. Even if so managed to pierce his body, his overwhelming Sword Montum forced them out, sending them flying back.
Having cleared the storm of Hidden Weapons, Ling Chen flickered and abruptly launched himself towards Bai Shaochuan. Clearly, Ling Chen had no intention of entangling with the Puppet any longer and aid to capture the king first, directly attacking Bai Shaochuan himself.
The sword qi slashed through mid-air, fast as a swift wind, like a fleeting shadow, going straight for Bai Shaochuan's throat.
"Well planned!"
Bai Shaochuan pulled out a Shield to protect himself. The Shield, forged from an unknown material, emitted a faint, condensed glow and seed indestructible.
CLANG!
The Sword Light suddenly struck the Shield, sending sparks flying like moths consud by iridescent flas. Although the Shield stopped the Sword Light, Bai Shaochuan was flung away uncontrollably, finally stumbling to the ground, his back against the inn wall, which now showed fine cracks from the impact.
*COUGH COUGH!*
The strength of the Sword Light was neutralized by the Shield, and Bai Shaochuan wasn't truly injured. However, he felt extrely uncomfortable, a heaviness spreading in his chest.
Squinting, his eyes revealed an icy glint. Bai Shaochuan said grimly, "It seems I underestimated you. I can't believe you managed to hurt ."
Ling Chen stopped and did not continue his attack. He said indifferently, "Doesn't this an you'll retreat in the face of difficulty?"
" retreat in the face of difficulty? You aren't qualified enough for that."
Bai Shaochuan sneered, showing no intention of retreating. Ling Chen should have pressed his advantage just now and severely injured in one fell swoop to secure victory. But he paused, and that montary hesitation gave ti to catch my breath and regroup.
There's no way I'll lose to such a foolish opponent.
As the Capture God's most favored Disciple, my formidable strength is just one aspect. What the Capture God values more is my control over Puppet chanisms and... my superior analytical skills. In other words, I'm smarter than others, capable of exploiting any condition to capture my opponent.
This is indeed the most important trait for a top Capture Officer.
Seeming to have grasped what Bai Shaochuan was thinking, Ling Chen shook his head a little helplessly. It seems that sotis, making concessions isn't a good thing; it can make opponents think you're easier to bully.
In my view, the reason I'm so calm and unhurried is because I'm certain of victory.
WHOOSH!
Bai Shaochuan suddenly activated the Puppet. Runes flowed on the Puppet's body, and from its fingertips, ten golden rays shot out from different angles towards Ling Chen's back.
"Heaven's Net!"
At the sa ti, Bai Shaochuan also made his move. He used the sa tactic as the Puppet. Dense golden rays ford a web, rapidly encasing Ling Chen.
Twenty golden rays ripped through the Void, piercing towards Ling Chen from both front and back.
Reacting swiftly, Ling Chen spun at high speed, transforming into a Wind Dragon vortex. The twenty rays all struck Ling Chen's Sword Light and were blocked.
With a cold snort, Bai Shaochuan flipped his palm, taking out another Puppet chanism box. After activating it, a dense rain of poison arrows shot out, following the golden rays and aiming for Ling Chen.
Halting his spin, Ling Chen suddenly gripped the Red Sky Sword and then spun it into a Sword Flower in his hand.
The barrage of poison arrows failed to harm Ling Chen in the slightest.
But the corners of Bai Shaochuan's mouth curled into an eerie smile. At this exact mont, the Puppet suddenly moved. As it drew closer to Ling Chen, it abruptly opened its mouth, spitting out a black bomb.
As if he had eyes in the back of his head, Ling Chen spun around and flicked out a finger beam, accurately striking the bomb.
BANG! The bomb exploded violently. Simultaneously, a cloud of black smoke spread out. The mont the bomb detonated, several poison needles shot out from within it, piercing Ling Chen's body.
"Now that you've been hit by my poison needles, you have no chance of turning things around! Surrender now, and I'll give you the antidote. Otherwise, you'll certainly die."
Bai Shaochuan smirked, looking as if he held Ling Chen's Life and Death in his hands.
Ling Chen replied, "Having played with you for so long, it's about ti to end this."
Completely unbothered by the poison needle, Ling Chen's eyes filled with chilling killing intent. His Invincible Sword Intent shifted from absolute tranquility to a violent surge, sweeping through his Soul Sea. The overwhelming Sword Intent erupted, annihilating everything in its path.
With a flicker, Ling Chen slashed out. His overwhelming True Qi condensed into four Fire Dragons from four directions. The montum of this strike was imnse, and the entire inn was instantly engulfed in Flas.
After unleashing this strike, Ling Chen confidently sheathed his sword without looking back.
After I refined this move, not even Shentu Yan could block it, let alone a re Bai Shaochuan.
PSCHT!
As the Sword Light faded, Bai Shaochuan's figure was sent flying backward. He was charred black all over and vomited fresh blood, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Ling Chen was clearly hit by my poison needle, yet he could still counterattack! This was beyond my expectations.
"You're dead at, brat! You dare to circulate your energy after being hit by my poison needle? Soon, the Poison will spread throughout your body, and you'll die a horrible death!" Bai Shaochuan's face twisted into a savage smile as he bellowed.
"I'll be perfectly fine. The one in trouble will be you."
Ling Chen moved suddenly. He swung the Red Sky Sword, and just as the blade seed poised to kill Bai Shaochuan, he turned it at the last mont, striking Bai Shaochuan squarely in the chest with the sword scabbard.
THUMP!
Vomiting another mouthful of blood, Bai Shaochuan's injuries worsened; the impact had damaged his internal organs. He was sent flying, smashing a table, and his aura imdiately weakened.
"Considering you're a Disciple of the Capture God, I won't kill you. Get lost," Ling Chen said indifferently.
I've already offended the Tang Sect. If I kill Bai Shaochuan and make an enemy of the Capture God as well, my future days will likely be very difficult.
In these Nine Provinces, I have no influential backing. Neither the Ling nor the Liu families will support . The only one I can rely on is myself.
