Martial Cultivator Chapter 247: The Resistance of Ants

A vast and terrifying aura erged within this cetery, pressing outward in all directions, raging wildly.

Even the unbelievably huge and seemingly incomparably sturdy stone monunts began to shake. After being struck by these terrifying auras, they could no longer hold on.

When the cultivators saw this scene, they began to feel ecstatic.

The stone monunts had blocked their way. Now that they were collapsing, it ant they could finally leave this place.

However, no one could predict exactly when the stone monunts would fall and shatter.

……

……

Chen Chao, being closest to the battlefield, naturally endured imnse pain. Thankfully, the sheet of paper in front of him had already blocked the frenzied sword qi. Otherwise, he would likely have been torn apart by the frenzied and irascible sword qi, suffering an excruciating death.

However, those skeletons were not as fortunate. In the midst of the clash between the two powerhouses, they beca the first victims. The horrifying aura descended upon them and easily shredded their bodies.

Several skeletons raised their war swords in an attempt to resist, but they could not put up a fight when facing the terrifying auras. Their war swords quickly snapped, and their entire bodies were turned into dust within the terrifying vortex.

Chen Chao's complexion turned deathly pale as he sensed the auras between heaven and earth. He could not help but think that if this was the true clash of two powerhouses, it would likely tear through this cetery in an instant.

He had witnessed Nepenthe Realm powerhouses before.

But compared to such existences, they were really not on the sa level.

There was really an even more powerful realm above Nepenthe Realm!

Were such existences extrely rare during ancient tis, like the feather of a phoenix and horn of a Qilin, or were they actually as plentiful as oxen fur?

Chen Chao beca sowhat absentminded.

However, the battle was already nearing its end.

The white skeleton in front of him might have been a remarkable great sword immortal, or even surpassed the Nepenthe Realm, becoming an even more formidable existence. Nevertheless, when facing the aura emanating from this page of paper, it was still at a disadvantage.

The corroded sword failed to pierce the seemingly ordinary paper. The sword aura at its tip gradually weakened, and the sword light's brilliance faded, becoming exceedingly dim.

Amidst the faint green glow in the white skeleton's eyes, various emotions surfaced—so astonishnt, so confusion, but more than anything, a sense of relief.

When he was alive, he was a sword cultivator, and naturally proud. Regardless of who he faced, he would always desire to engage in a battle. However, could one guarantee victory every ti?

Since that was not possible, it was only natural that he would lose.

The white skeleton shook its head. Even so, it did not want to admit defeat like this!

The scattered sword qi between heaven and earth converged at this very mont, all gathering at the sword's tip.

This was its final struggle.

The sheet of paper also sensed its opponent's thoughts, so an even more powerful aura surged from it.

This scene left Chen Chao flabbergasted.

If the previous evenly matched confrontation had made him feel that the owner of the paper and the white skeleton had similar cultivation realms, the aura surging out now proved that the owner of the page had not exerted their full power and that there was no such thing as being overpowered.

It had yet to unleash its full power.

By the ti Chen Chao grasped this truth, the white skeleton understood it as well.

This ti, it truly understood.

It understood that there was still a considerable gap between itself and the owner of that page.

That pair of eerie green eyes seed to turn lax as if it rembered sothing.

It had already unleashed its final strike. The outco was actually not important.

Two terrifying auras collided here, then scattered in all directions. The towering stone monunts that were already on the verge of collapse, were finally shattered by these terrifying auras. One after another, the stone monunts fell, sending clouds of dust everywhere.

"Run!"

The cultivators had been waiting for this opportunity all along, building up montum to release it. Seeing the opportunity at this mont, they wasted no ti.

They ran for their lives desperately, not caring about anything else.

Soon, the cultivators entered the dust clouds. If there were no accidents, most of them would reach the exit of the ruins. They had no desire to explore further.

A victor was also finally determined in the battle here.

The sword qi that had gathered at the sword's tip was completely torn apart. The corroded sword shattered abruptly at this mont.

First, the tip of the sword shattered, followed by the blade, and finally, the hilt.

The white skeleton was sent flying towards the distance.

The terrifying aura remained the sa as before, only determining the victor, not life and death!

The white skeleton flew backward far away, and the terrifying aura that filled the sky gradually dissipated.

However, Chen Chao gripped his broken saber once again and ran forward in large strides.

The white skeleton's sword qi had dispersed, and it had no strength left to continue the fight. However, it would not die because the owner of that page had no intention of killing.

Whether was it the initial encounter with Yu Xiyi, or with Daoist Master Ironcloud after that, they could not trigger this piece of paper's killing intent. Regardless of their provocations, the page only responded but did not have any other intentions.

But Chen Chao needed the white skeleton to die.

It had nothing to do with grudges, it was just for his mind to be at ease.

That said, there was a grudge too.

The white skeleton had once tried to kill him, so he had to eliminate this hidden danger when the opportunity arose. That was the most important thing to do.

The broken saber swung down towards the skull. This ti, the white skeleton was sowhat angry. As a sword cultivator, losing to soone in a battle was not sothing to be angry about. However, after this battle, there was an ant that dared to attack him. That was what made him angry.

So he raised his hand, wanting to block this strike.

That bony claw was deathly white, looking very scary.

But, the broken saber sliced through its bony claw and continued its descent.

There was so puzzlent in that white skeleton's eyes, then it quickly turned self-deprecating. After all the sword qi it had temporarily accumulated by relying on the blood was shattered by the page.

How could he have any power left to fight with the young man in front of him?

So the ant before his eyes was truly capable of biting him to death.

He felt so vicissitudes of emotion, but mostly, he found it absurd.

"Don't think that this is absurd. There are many things in this world that you can't imagine!"

Chen Chao inexplicably said a sentence, perhaps having understood the aning within those two clusters of eerie green.

In the past, killing was just killing, and Chen Chao would not say a word more than necessary. But this ti was different.

"Even if you've died once already, I'll make you die again!"

As his words fell, a clear saber light imdiately appeared.

The broken saber slashed onto the skull, producing a resounding and intense clashing sound!

Crack-

The white skeleton's body was of a different level of toughness compared to other skeletons. This strike did not manage to split the skull open.

The violent collision even made Chen Chao's arm ache, and he almost lost his grip on the broken saber.

The healed gash between his thumb and index finger ruptured once more.

Those eerie green lights stared at him, conveying a ssage.

"An ant is an ant. Before flying to the sky, it's always an ant."

Chen Chao paid no attention to it and just looked at him coldly. Then, he suddenly opened his mouth, inhaling a large amount of white mist. Between his mouth and nose, so other white mist seeped out. The white mist even carried golden threads.

Seeing this scene, the white skeleton froze, feeling sowhat dazed and mostly puzzled.

Chen Chao who temporarily acquired a trace of cultivation took a deep death.

He swung his saber once more!

Crack...

A crack appeared on the skull.

"How did you..."

The white skeleton's eyes displayed an extrely confused look.

However, soon enough, the crack spread from the top of the skull, and then the entire skull split apart.

With a loud bang, the skull shattered.

The two eerie green lights rolled away in opposite directions and fell to the ground.

Its emotions gradually faded, leaving nothing behind.

The white skeleton also scattered on the ground, turning into individual bones.

White bones that littered the ground.

Chen Chao collapsed.

He looked around sowhat absent-mindedly at the white mist.

The paper with countless golden words on it was blown by the wind and slowly drifted down, landing precisely on Chen Chao's chest.

Like an autumn leaf, appearing sowhat lonely.

Chen Chao could not speak, he just felt rather tired. Then, he closed his eyes.

But he still tightly gripped the broken saber in his hand.
