Chapter 364: Sneaky
Chapter 364: Sneaky
Liao Wu gave a roaring battle cry as he too discharged a Phoenix Break from the tip of his blade. His essence Phoenix grew at an even larger height than the Huo siblings. It also had a far greater heat that made it seem like a burning star had arrived from the regions of space.
Their combined fiery aura crashed upon Cain. But it couldn’t even make him flinch.
Cain didn’t put their joint attacks in his eyes. His arm flashed out at naked speeds, his Spiral Sword swiping out a dazzling blue ray of sword light.
When this sword light traveled, space visibly distorted all around it!
Within a moment, the Spiral Sword light already sliced through the essence Phoenixes, dwarfing their power and vaporizing the joint attacks into particles of fiery light.
This was the power of the Master Grade True Spirit Spiral Sword. Within its Spirit insignia symbols contained an abundance of Space Law essence.
By stimulating the power within the blade, Cain could unleash a sword light completely infused with Space Law properties.
No attacks can feasibly stop it. It’ll slice through the space within any energy attack, completely destroying it from the inside.
Cain had called this attack Spatial Slash!
Neither Huo Lei nor Lian could react to the speed of Spatial Slash. The giant blue sword light already neared meters from their faces.
But right at the last second, Liao Wu poured Divine qi into his left palm and crushed the purple talisman.
Spirit energy instantly pulsated.
A bright purple Spirit barrier covered the Phoenix trio right before the Spatial Slash struck. A defense like this could even tank attacks from powerful 5thfall experts.
However, Cain’s prowess already surpassed anything a 5thfall could discharge.
‘Ka-Cha!’
The Spatial Slash shattered the purple Spirit barrier into tiny energy particles. The remnant energy force of the sword light soared at blinding speeds, penetrating right into the Phoenix trio’s internal body.
Liao Wu, Hou Lei, and Lian all had to stifle blood from pouring out of their mouths. That Spatial Slash bypassed all defenses and sliced numerous organs and bones, causing several considerable injuries.
But just this wasn’t enough to stop the Phoenix trio.
Liao Wu gave an unwilling roar as he erupted the strength in his Inner World to the point it frantically trembled. He overdrew on his Qi and Law essence Marks, drawing out every last fiber of the power within them.
Horrible pain flared within Liao Wu, but he still ignored it. The madden Phoenix then viciously glared at Cain, deciding to bet it all on this one attack.
Even in a furious state, Liao Wu clearly knew that Cain had no intentions to let them go. In fact, he was the one who attacked them first!
With his strange space abilities, wanting to runaway would most likely be more miserable than fighting head-on.
Liao Wu never lacked any courage. Even under Cain’s might, he didn’t dare back down one.
Viciously stomping the ground and causing a ten-meter hole in it, Liao Wu shot towards the skies while bathing in a gleaming crimson light.
His True Spirit Sword thrust forward as he frantically revolved the Fire Law Marks within his bloodline.
“Dancing Phoenix!”
A phantom of a massive Phoenix shrouded Liao Wu’s entire body. The glory of a Phoenix exploded out all out at once!
At the same time, Huo Lei and Lian fearlessly rushed into their skies, swords thrust forward as their crimson flaming aura intensely burned.
“Severing Strike!” The siblings simultaneously roared.
Their prowess rose to levels even Mid-tier 6thfall genius wouldn’t be able to resist. This superimposed on top of Liao Wu’s Dancing Phoenix.
The combined might of three Phoenixes seemed unstoppable. All Upper-tier 6thfalls geniuses would have no choice but to run far away.
If not, their bodies and even souls would be burned to utter ashes!
Their combined might gush out powerful airwaves for dozens of miles.
Cain’s long black hair and luxurious Dragon robes chaotically flapped against the frantic airwaves. On his face, a brilliant smile curled his lips, enhancing the charming image of his handsome face.
In the face of the Phoenixes’ combined might, Cain revolved his Dracnoinc Lightning Arts. His Qi and Marks violently pulsated massive waves of unstoppable energy.
Within a single moment, a Draconic Lightning stream shot out from the tip of the Spiral Sword.
The Draconic Lightning stream instantly converged into the shape of a Draconic Lightning Claw over 100 feet long and wide!
Thunderous booms continually reverberated in the area. It was as if a god of lightning had unleashed its full divine might!
When the Phoenix trio was merely 50 meters apart from Cain, he cruelly smirked and swung his Spiral Sword straight down.
The massive Draconinc Lightning Claw blasted off with a deafening sonic boom. The power released from it locked the space around the Phoenix trio and directly suppressed their combined might.
Liao Wu, Huo Lei, and Lian could only look horrified at the incoming massive Draconinc Lightning Claw. Their bodies were tightly bound, their Divine auras were slightly suppressed, and fear shot through their souls.
They had no other options but to tank this huge attack head-on!
‘Bang!’
A deafening explosion sounded out, and powerful energy shock waves crazily discharged for dozens of miles.
Out of the energy shock waves, three crimson lights smashed to the ground. Three dust clouds flew up as Liao Wu, Huo Lei and Lian penetrated meters deep into the ground.
The Huo siblings could no longer hold it in. They both puked copious amounts of blood as their organs violently tumbled and numerous bones cracked to pieces. Draconic Lightning essence had also invaded their Inner World, suppressing a small region within it. This caused their prowess to take a small dive and caused their self-healing to slow down.
Liao Wu had also coughed up large botches of blood. His natural defenses were greater than the Liao Wu’s siblings, allowing him to at least sit up after that massive attack.
But even so, his body was in agony. His Inner World was in a chaotic state from overdrawing his energies and now there was a small portion of Draconic Lightning essence running amok!
Liao Wu never felt more astounded than he did now. This was the only fight he had that ever injured him to such a severe degree.
Moreover, this was a three versus one situation!
Three top-tier geniuses were beaten to such a miserable state within only a few attacks.
Liao Wu didn’t know whether to feel awe, terrified, humiliated, or rage over getting so causally dominated.
Up in the skies, the excitement on Cain’s grew to unparallel levels. This was a fantastic battle!
Even though he appeared to be effortlessly dominating, the truth was that he needed to use every ounce of his full strength. A single mishap and he could be the one miserably smashed into the ground.
After all, Liao Wu’s group weren’t top-tier geniuses for no reason. The amount of strength they can draw out grew to levels that Cain felt considerably threatened a few times.
‘But now-hm?’ Cain was just about to end this battle when his attention snapped to his right.
He narrowed his eyes before a zealous smile reappeared on his face.
Taking an invisible step forward, Cain teleported a hundred meters, instantly reappearing right above two young geniuses!
These two wore silver moon robes and exuded powerful 6thfall Divine auras. Indeed, these were the top-tier geniuses of the Silver Moon Sect!
And the Zhun siblings were in a state of absolute shock. Their Inner World’s strength burst open in the form of a faint Divine barrier.
At the same time, Cain swung his Spiral Sword with his absolute strength.
‘Bang!’
Zhun Kie and Le felt as if a mountain violently slammed into their bodies. Their Divine barriers shattered and their protective Divine aura collapsed as the remaining energy from Cain’s strike blasted them out of the skies.
The Zhun siblings couldn’t stop spurting out botches of blood. Their bodies were wracked with great pain.
They both soared through the air, smashing right down to the same island, arriving near the Phoenix trio in the form of human shape craters.
The Phoenix trio had already sat up by this point. And each of them was befuddled at this sudden entrance.
Just where the hell did these guys come from?
And did they really got thrown from a single hit?!
“Fuck! Damnit!” Zhun Kie and Le shot out of their craters, attempting to stand on their feet.
Upon getting up, the Zhun siblings slightly wobbled as if they were going to collapse right back to the ground. The Zhun siblings surged their soul energy, focusing their bodies from falling backward.
“How did he even sense us? I know he is strong, but his Spirit Sense can surpass a Divine Sense?!” Zhun Le muttered in horrified disbelief.
Zhun Kie didn’t speak, deeply reflecting on the past actions. He and Zhun Le silently threw two poisonous water needles naked to the eyes.
Furthermore, the needles were infused with a talisman charm to mask its presence from even 4thfall expert’s Divine Sense.
But Cain had instantly sensed their intentions and even unleashed a powerful counter-attack.
Zhun Kie didn’t hesitate. He fished out a purple Spirit talisman and crushed it, releasing a massive wave of Spirit energy.
The purple Spirit energy extended at instantaneous speeds, engulfing the surrounding for hundreds of meters.
Cain, who was just about to dash over to the Zhun’s, paused. Purple Spirit energy attempted to penetrate inside his body.
Thankfully, because Cain was at full power, the purple Spirit energy greatly stalled at his protective Sacred Sage aura. But it only stalled and didn’t instantly disperse.
Cain made a quick guess. ‘This…is this one of those battlefield talismans? If so, I can only destroy it with far greater strength. But that will only distract me and waste even my huge energy reserves. The other way is to kill the one who activated it. But even with this method, I have to be careful to not slip up and let this Spirit energy inside.’
Contrary to his previous actions, Cain didn’t domineeringly rush in. He only narrowed his sights directly at the purple Spirit energy coating Zhun Kie’s palm.
A plan gradually brewed within his mind.
Getting stared at by Cain caused goosebumps to rise on Zhun Kie’s arm. He felt slightly creeped out. It was like he was prey on a chopping block for a king predator.
Zhun Kie forced through Cain’s intent stare and took out three True Spirit rank healing pills.
He flung them towards the Phoenix trio, saying, “There’s no time to talk. Help us capture him down and the Silver Moon Sect will graciously reward you and your entire Holy Land.”
Liao Wuo and the Huo siblings were silent. They caressed the pills in their hands, their gazes seemingly in deep contemplation.
But internally, they all were cursing. ‘We barely survived at our peak. What kind of difference are you expecting now?!’
