Chapter 460: Savage Battle
The Allheaven Stellar Array flew from his back and the three felt it’s pressure. There it is, the other’s savage assault!
Leng Xue began, “Don’t hold anything back. Any hesitation from us will end with our deaths!”
Xu San’er said, “Yes, this is the proper way to show respect to a strong opponent!”
Chen Ming pierced the sky with Nine Year Cicada. Starlight fell on it, adding to it 3,000 Daos over the Hegemonic Immortal Sword.
This was an overwhelming attack.
Chen Ming stood there unmoving, yet the three crept back one step at a time.
Chen Ming killed Ninth in three attacks, and by the looks of it, it might not be one time either.
Ninth died out of carelessness, while they tried to avoid this at all cost.
Chen Ming’s killing intent grew colder, noticing there wasn’t much strength gap between them, “Tell me, who should I kill first? Guess I’ll just point. One two three four five, Going uphill to kill the tiger, With the tiger gone from home, The one to die is you.”(1)
Chen Ming’s blade was closing in on Xu San’er, when the later shouted, “Lava Sword Art’s final attack, Sky-burning and Sea-Boiling!”
Xu San’er’s blade had intense flame rippling on it, as if of rolling lava. Tongues of fire rose from himself and covered him in lava until he grew to thirty feet tall lava giant.
Hardship cultivators had a flame something or ice something they could use. But that wasn’t the point, what mattered was that they could increase their power in this form. This sword art, in particular, focused one’s all into one strike and unleash a destructive attack many times over.
His sword trembled, his sword soul shivered!
Chen Ming attacked with Hegemonic Immortal Sword and fourfold speed.
When they made contact, Leng Xue and Ming Qidian took advantage of this and were using their own best moves on Chen Ming. When Leng Xue wielded his saber, all around him a snowstorm rose, “Snow Beheading’s final attack, Saber Cutting the Snow!”
The cyan blade glinted with coldness as if it wanted to freeze everything!
Ming Qidian grew into a hundred zhang giant along with his damaged halberd.
This was Law Phenomenon(2), and art that could make one big, uh, huge. Of course, doing so in a duel was a death wish. If the enemy poked a hole in you, the damage would be tremendous.
Though one thing was certain, the halberd art would get a large boost.
“Cleaving Halberd Art’s final move, Crushing Mountains!”
Nine Year Cicada and the huge lava greatsword clashed!
The boom left Xu San’er coughing blood and flinging the fire sword way down yonder.
Thanks to Chen Ming’s speed, he unleashed a second strike. As for getting in the zone to do it, he had 3,000 Dao Palaces keeping him in top shape for any eventuality.
Chen Ming used Hegemonic Immortal Sword on Leng Xue’s ice saber with his right, and his right reached for Dao Empyrean Bamboo, Uh, I’m a spiritual cultivator, you know.
With Dao Empyrean Bamboo out, trails of energy gathered around him, covering every weakness.
Leng Xue felt his hands bleeding from the hit, his body letting out cracking sound and then got blown away like a punching bag.
The humongous halberd landed at this point, against the thousand streams of energy.
The clash spread a cloud of dust that covered Chen Ming. But the three knew he was alive and kicking. Just that his energy was sometimes weaker or strong.
Chen Ming stepped from the sandstorm, bloodied and wiping his mouth, “Ah, it just won’t stop flowing.”
Chen Ming survived thanks to the energy streams.
His body was filled with wounds. They were in the same realm and used moves that could end even him.
If not for Dao Empyrean Bamboo, he’d be lying dead in the mud.
His target wasn’t the wounded Xu San’er and Leng Xue. Since they needed time to recover, they wouldn’t interfere for a while.
Chen Ming used Eight Dragon-ascending Steps and rushed at the giant Ming Qidian. The later wanted to release Law Phenomenon, but Chen Ming wasn’t about to let him.
Ming Qidian smashed his weapon on Chen Ming. Its strength was obvious, so was its weakness. His speed was so slow, it almost didn’t even register to Chen Ming.
He wielded his saber, not to kill, but to use its speed to get closer and faster. Slipping past the halberd, he gripped the saber with two hands and hacked Ming Qidian’s head!
The force behind it could split anything.
The huge saber wave bisected Ming Qidian down the middle.
The mountain of flesh collapsed and ignited, the two sides of the skeleton knit together. His halberd rusted, aging under the naked eye.
The huge skeleton swayed as it stood, engulfed in undead fire. His voice was unrecognizable, “You stripped my flesh! What a powerful Hegemonic Immortal Sword!”
It was so strong it robbed him of his fleshly body, yet he was still alive, “A pity since I cultivate the bones!”
Chen Ming laughed at the bony Ming Qidian, “Oops, I didn’t consider what I was killing just now. Why would I care anyway? If I killed you once, I can kill you twice.”
A flame inside the skull looked quite eye-catching, reflected in Chen Ming’s eyes.
Is that his weak point? Alright then.
Ming Qidian hammered with his halberd but when Chen Ming was about to strike, he ran!
You wanna run and come back to bite me when I’m busy?
How could our dear Immortal Master Chen let anyone escape from him?
He used Eight Dragon-ascending Steps and relied on Void’s stele to reduce the cost of spiritual power.
