1221: Chapter 1221: Houyi Bow, Essence Blood Arrow, Origin Qi Cauldron 1221: Chapter 1221: Houyi Bow, Essence Blood Arrow, Origin Qi Cauldron The blood arrow was so fast that, although Madam Linghu reacted swiftly and did her utmost to dodge to one side from atop the Snow Swine, avoiding vital hits, her left arm was not spared.
“Whistle!”
Accompanied by a piercing whistling through the air, the blood arrow brushed past the edge of Madam Linghu’s left arm and shot into the sea behind her.
“Boom!”
The astonishing energy carried by the blood arrow, along with the scorching Fire Primordial Qi, made contact with the seawater, causing the water to explode and whip up several large waves.
Madam Linghu groaned, lowering her head to look at her left arm, only to see a large chunk of flesh on the outside of her arm carved away by the blood arrow, exposing the stark white bones beneath the dripping blood.
At the sa ti, a burning sll spread, indicating that her dress and her raven-black hair were scorched by the high temperature carried by the blood arrow, either charred or twisted into clumps, leaving her appearance utterly disheveled.
At this mont, Madam Linghu, from head to toe, was in tatters, completely disheveled with a mix of the sll of blood and scorch on her, her face twisted and ferocious.
Where was there any trace of her previous noble and beautiful deanor?
Fang Bai’s arrow, although it had not critically wounded Madam Linghu, still dealt a significant psychological blow to her, even bringing forth a thought to turn around and flee.
“Sigh…”
Fang Bai, having not critically wounded Madam Linghu with his arrow, couldn’t help but feel greatly disappointed and let out a sigh of resignation.
First, he forcibly called upon the purest Wind Essence Qi from the turmoil of Chaos Origin Energy in his Qi Sea, ford a pair of Wind Wings, and then condensed an arrow from a drop of his blood, shooting it from the Houyi Bow, essentially using his body’s potential to attack Madam Linghu.
Fang Bai had placed all his hopes of escape on that arrow.
After the arrow was shot, his entire being was nearly drained of spirit, and his form involuntarily swayed in the air.
Seeing that the arrow, in which he had placed all his hopes, did not critically wound Madam Linghu, Fang Bai sighed, and his spirits instantly deflated.
The wings made of Wind Essence Qi on his back vanished instantly, and he plumted headfirst into the sea.
Just before crashing into the sea, Fang Bai stored the Houyi Bow into his Spatial Ring, to prevent any loss.
“So this lad suddenly burst out with strength, hoping to turn the tables on , but it appears he’s already at the end of his rope!
Let’s see how you can still be arrogant!”
Madam Linghu watched Fang Bai splash into the sea with imnse satisfaction and imdiately leaped back onto the Snow Swine, urging it towards Fang Bai.
At the mont Fang Bai shot the blood arrow using his Houyi Bow, pushing with all his might, the Essence Energy in his body was nearly depleted.
After plunging into the sea, he felt extrely weak and wanted to imdiately sit cross-legged to cultivate and recover his Essence Energy, but he knew that Madam Linghu would not give him that chance.
Seeing Madam Linghu urge the Snow Swine rapidly towards him, Fang Bai refused to resign himself to fate, and feebly circulated Water Elent Qi, diving like a fish deep into the sea.
Fang Bai knew that with his current state, diving deep into the sea was just a temporary asure.
He could not swim too far and would have to surface soon to breathe, thus he simply could not hide from Madam Linghu’s search.
After diving about ten ters under the sea, Fang Bai’s sensory abilities, which were several tis more acute than those of an ordinary Martial Artist, allowed him to detect unusual slight movents in the water ahead.
“There’s sothing sneaking up this way…”
Fang Bai’s heart skipped a beat.
In this vast ocean, anything that could approach him silently had to be a sea Spirit Beast of unimaginable strength.
With the last of his strength, Fang Bai gathered his Divine Sense and probed towards the source of the unusual water movents.
Soon, Divine Sense provided feedback that surprised Fang Bai greatly, leaving his face filled with shock.
In the deep sea a kiloter away, a Swordtooth Shark around fifteen ters in length, like a ghost from the abyss, was swiftly approaching Fang Bai and Madam Linghu.
The Swordtooth Shark ranks among the top dominators of the ocean, having not just thick skin and strong resistance to blows, but also rows of teeth, like sharp swords, easily tearing and chewing up almost any hard substance that enters its mouth, leaving virtually no chance of survival.
Feeding primarily on flesh, the Swordtooth Shark possesses exceptionally keen senses of sll.
The one approaching must have detected the blood scent shed by Fang Bai and Madam Linghu earlier, which led it to silently draw near.
The power of the Swordtooth Shark’s attacks was comparable to a Universe Level cultivator at perfection, and with its formidable defense, even Madam Linghu at her peak would have to evade it.
Now, Fang Bai was extrely weakened and Madam Linghu was far from her peak condition; if the Swordtooth Shark were to close in and attack, both of them would be in grave danger.
Madam Linghu’s sensory abilities were much weaker than Fang Bai’s.
While Fang Bai could sense the Swordtooth Shark approaching, she remained utterly unaware that death was stealthily creeping up on them.
After Fang Bai detected the Swordtooth Shark, he felt terror followed by excitent, realizing this was an excellent opportunity to escape.
The Swordtooth Shark swam at an astonishing speed in the ocean.
No sooner had Fang Bai’s Divine Sense noticed its presence than it closed the distance from about a kiloter to just three or four hundred ters.
Fang Bai estimated that in at most ten breaths’ ti, the Swordtooth Shark could reach his side and launch an attack.
There was no ti to think more; Fang Bai imdiately took out the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron from his Spatial Ring.
The Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron, also acquired by Fang Bai in the secular world, stood around six feet tall and was crafted from five different materials—tal, wood, water, fire, earth—making it the ideal Furnace Cauldron for crafting elixirs.
Although Fang Bai did not know the origins of the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron or determine its exact rank as a Spiritual Artifact, he knew this cauldron surpassed any Immortal Rank Spiritual Artifact he had used in his previous life by at least a notch.
This ant that this more than human-sized cauldron might possibly be a Divine Artifact.
And in the Immortal Realm, Divine Artifacts are the stuff of legends, coveted treasures pursued by cultivators.
The sturdiness of the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron exceeded Fang Bai’s imagination, so his potential escape entirely depended on it.
After retrieving the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron, Fang Bai quickly opened its lid and climbed inside.
The Swordtooth Shark approached incredibly fast; just as Fang Bai sealed the lid, the shark had already dashed toward the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron, opening its abyss-like gaping mouth and swallowing the entire cauldron.
Fang Bai only felt darkness around him, unable to see any light.
When he expanded his Divine Sense, he realized that he, along with the cauldron, had beco prey within the Swordtooth Shark’s mouth.
The Swordtooth Shark, evidently very confident in its rows of sharp teeth, bit down imdiately after swallowing the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron, not caring what the object was.
In the past, even hard stone and fine steel could not withstand the chewing and tearing of the Swordtooth Shark’s rows of teeth and would have shattered imdiately.
But this ti, it left the Swordtooth Shark with an unforgettable trauma.
“Crack!”
Several crisp sounds almost rang out simultaneously.
After the Swordtooth Shark’s teeth bit into the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron, they actually snapped off a few, while the Five Elents Origin Qi Cauldron remained undamaged, not even leaving a trace.
