Chapter 376: Chapter 351: Ingenious Use of the Avatar_1
Chu Long and the others showed no fear, bursting with energy in defiance.
Both sides’ energy clashed in the void, causing a swell of undercurrents.
"Fortunately, we arrived in time, else all the treasures here would be monopolized by the Mansion of King Ming."
A youth from the Tianjian Sect spoke up.
This person was handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, exuding the sharpness of a divine sword.
Within the Tianjian Sect, he was widely considered the strongest, undeniably a top-notch expert.
Whether there was a second top-notch expert within the Tianjian Sect remained to be seen.
"Sword Brother, shall we first deal with the men from the Mansion of King Ming before taking the treasures?"
The Supreme Elder of Tianque Sect transmitted a message to the young man from the Tianjian Sect.
"There’s no hurry, let’s claim the treasures first. I feel that the war swords these men are carrying are all extraordinary, top-grade spiritual treasures. If we could get our hands on them, our swordsmanship would greatly improve, bolstering our strength when dealing with the Mansion of King Ming, reducing unnecessary casualties."
The young man from the Tianjian Sect responded.
Whoosh!
Someone from the Tianjian Sect could not hold back anymore and dashed towards one of the corpses like an arrow leaving the bow. The power of heaven and earth surged, transforming into an invisible giant hand, reaching for the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag and the Spiritual Treasure War Sword at the corpse’s waist.
But the moment he approached, a sound like a sword humming resonated, followed by an immensely sharp Sword Light slashing towards him.
This Tianjian Sect’s expert was at the third transformation of the Primordial Spirit realm, he was shocked and hastily unsheathed his sword, using all his strength to block the attack.
With a loud clang, he was violently pushed back hundreds of meters, his arms shaking, and blood spouting from his mouth.
"Overwatch! These bodies were part of a Sword Array when they were alive. After death, the Sword Array still exists. Those with lower cultivation levels shouldn’t approach!"
The youth leading the Tianjian Sect shouted out loud.
Although this person looked young, he was actually a Supreme Elder of the Tianjian Sect. His name was Jian Wuxin, a person of the same generation as Jian Wuji.
"Supreme Elder, let me give it a try."
An old man in the Tianjian Sect, with white hair fluttering and an immortal bearing, stepped forward with the Spiritual Treasure War Sword in his hand. Sword Qi surged around him, forming a Sword Qi River encircling him as he approached a corpse.
Clang!
As soon as he neared the corpse, the war sword in the corpse’s hand moved again, shooting out an incomparably fierce Sword Qi, slashing towards the old man.
The elderly man immediately counterattacked, thrusting his War Sword forward, its radiance equally as dazzling.
Boom!
The two Sword Lights clashed in the air, causing countless tiny Sword Qi that swept in all directions.
"Retreat!"
Chu Long swung his spear, blocking the incoming Sword Qi, and took the men from the Mansion of King Ming to the edge of the square, away from the seven corpses.
Stumbling slightly, the elderly man from the Tianjian Sect rallied a counterattack, landing three sword strikes, breaking the Sword Light released by the corpse. He then moved forward again, getting closer to the corpse.
But at that moment, the War Swords in the hands of the seven corpses hummed together, radiating dazzling Sword Light. The corpse closest to the old man even began to glow. Then, these rays of light congealed into a figure.
A blurry figure, holding a sword of light, with a soaring sword intent.
Whoosh!
With the sword of light in its hand, the figure slashed at the old man.
It was a kind of divine level Swordsmanship, its power was incomparable.
The old man was shocked, releasing thirteen sword strikes and setting up a screen of sword shadows to shield himself.
Splash!
A crisp sound echoed, the sword shadow screen was easily pierced through, the Sword Light did not stop, and it slashed directly at the old man.
The old man, filled with horror, quickly retreated, but it was too late. He was swept by the Sword Light, a bloody sword wound appearing across his chest, he was almost split in two.
Thankfully, at the critical moment, Jian Wuxin made a move to block the Sword Light for him. Otherwise, under this sword, the old man would have perished.
"This strong?"
Everyone’s hearts went cold as they looked at the sword-wielding figure, their faces solemn.
That white-haired elder from the Tianjian Sect had reached the fourth transformation of the Primordial Spirit realm and was a master adept at cultivating primordial Spirits.
Even such a person was nearly killed by a single sword stroke from the light figure, the power of the Sword Array was truly astonishing.
For a while, no one dared to approach.
Crash!
Jian Wuxin stepped forward, a war sword floating above him, its imposing manner as heavy as a mountain, pressing upon the light figure.
Whoosh!
As soon as Jian Wuxin approached, the light figure made the first move, Jian Wuxin waved his sword to block.
The two Sword Lights collided, causing a heaven-shaking explosion.
Both the figure and Jian Wuxin trembled, retreating simultaneously.
Then they fought again, their fierce exchanges truly akin to a battle between two swordsmanship experts.
"Jian Brother, let me assist you."
The Supreme Elder of the Tianque Sect leaped into the air, moving towards the corpse that Jian Wuxin was aiming for.
But he did not assist Jian Wuxin. Instead, he activated the Heavenly Earth Power to formation a giant hand that seized the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag on the corpse’s waist.
He intended to take the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag while Jian Wuxin was entangled with the light figure.
However, the War Sword in the corpse’s hand hummed, slashing out a Sword Light that split the Heavenly Earth Power poised by the Supreme Elder of Tianque Sect, and slashed at him.
The Supreme Elder of Tianque Sect blocked with his sword and kept advancing, getting closer to the corpse.
Just then, another corpse nearby started to glow and condensed a second sword-weilding light figure that attacked the Supreme Elder of Tianque Sect, blocking him.
Jian Wuxin let out a cold hum, clearly dissatisfied with the Supreme Elder of Tianque Sect’s attempt to seize the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag.
"This Sword Array works in harmony. It brings forth the same effect whether attacking one person or several."
Zuo Yun explained softly.
"We might as well try too."
Chu Long held his spear, taking steps forward, heading towards one of the corpses.
The greatest treasure on this island, might be within the Sumi Mustard Seed Bags these seven individuals carried.
The formations these seven laid down after their deaths are so powerful, they must have been remarkable figures while they were alive.
The things they left behind, must surely be extraordinary.
Lian Chengchao also stepped forward, side by side with Chu Long, obviously intending to join forces with him.
Seeing Chu Long and Lian Chengchao take action, the Supreme Elder of the Tianque Sect heaved a sigh of relief, but still didn’t make a move, just watched Lu Yan.
He was afraid that Lu Yan would suddenly attack them.
"Zuo Yun, is there a way to break this sword array?"
Lu Yan asked Zuo Yun through a secret voice transmission.
"No method, you can only rely on absolute strength to break through."
Zuo Yun responded.
Lu Yan nodded, then stepped towards one of the corpses.
Seeing Lu Yan take action, the Supreme Elder of the Tianque Sect exhaled in relief, moving forward, fixating on a single corpse.
The battle erupts in an instant.
Chu Long and Lian Chengchao joined forces, but there were still two figures attacking them. In the end, the two simply split up, each attacking a corpse, looking for a way to break through.
The Supreme Elder of the Tianque Sect also separated from Jian Wuxin, dealing with a body on his own.
Meanwhile, Lu Yan and the Supreme Elder of the Tianque Sect took on a body each.
Six masters were clashing intensively with six light figures.
Lu Yan was covered in scale, pushing his True Dragon War Body to its limit, and exchanged dozens of moves continuously with the light figure.
"It’s only a light figure, it hasn’t even pulled out the Spiritual Treasure war sword, yet it’s so sharp..."
Lu Yan looked at the white marks on his palm and his heart filled with awe.
He glanced at the others, nobody could break through the defense of the light figures, nobody could successfully get the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag.
"By now, there’s no need to hide some techniques."
Lu Yan was deep in thought. After exchanging eights moves with the light figure, two figures suddenly burst out from his body.
They were the two Martial Arts Avatars.
Lu Yan himself fully engaged the light figure, while the two Martial Arts Avatars bypassed the light figure, rushing towards the corpse from the left and right.
At the moment the two avatars burst out, a shadow flashed on Lu Yan’s body, and another Martial Arts Avatar burst out, this time, there were four.
Then, another four.
Lu Yan dispatched a total of ten Martial Arts Avatars in a row.
Of course, all of them were top-notch Martial Arts Avatars. Lu Yan had hundreds of such Martial Arts Avatars.
The two leading Martial Arts Avatars quickly approached the corpse. The war sword in the corpse’s hand hummed, shooting out two Sword Qi.
With two ’plop’ sounds, the top-notch Martial Arts Avatars were split in half without any resistance, disappearing into energy.
But immediately after, the four Martial Arts Avatars behind them charged over, reaching out to grab the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag at the corpse’s waist.
The war sword in the hand of the corpse hummed again, another Sword Qi erupted, aiming at the front avatar that was trying to grab the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag.
But an avatar from behind took a step forward, landing in front, using its own body to block the two Sword Qi.
Hum!
The war sword seemed to rage, the hum becoming more intense. Between the flickering lights, several more Sword Qi swept out.
But the two Martial Arts Avatars following behind rushed up, blocking all the Sword Qi that swept out.
And the Martial Arts Avatar that was hit naturally disintegrated into ashes.
But after blocking two waves consecutively, the previous Martial Arts Avatar finally succeeded. It grabbed the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag at the corpse’s waist and yanked it off.
"Got it."
Lu Yan was excited.
Losing five Martial Arts Avatars, he finally succeeded.
The Martial Arts Avatar that got the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag immediately retreated quickly, but it was still a step late. A Sword Qi flashed by, cutting it in half at the waist.
But the moment this Martial Arts Avatar was cut, it threw the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag out, which was caught by another Martial Arts Avatar following behind, then it quickly rushed towards Lu Yan.
The war sword in the hand of the corpse shook again, erupting terrifying Sword Qi, attacking the Martial Arts Avatar from behind.
But fortunately, Lu Yan sent out enough Martial Arts Avatars, the other three fell behind, blocking the one in front.
Plop! Plop!
Then another two Martial Arts Avatars were cut, but after such a delay, the Martial Arts Avatar holding the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag finally rushed to Lu Yan’s side.
Lu Yan reached out to grab the Sumi Mustard Seed Bag, then deployed the Star Leg technique, kicking out with both legs, blocking the attack of the light figure.
The remaining two Martial Arts Avatars rushed into Lu Yan’s body and disappeared.
Lu Yan retreated quickly, breaking free from the light figure.
Seeing that Lu Yan successfully got a Sumi Mustard Seed Bag, the masters of the Tianque Sect and the Tianjian Sect couldn’t help but envy him.
But they can’t replicate Lu Yan’s method.
They don’t know what technique Lu Yan is using, to be able to send out ten figures exactly like him.
They speculated that this might be a special effect of Lu Yan’s Organ Miracle.
Each figure, at least has the strength of the Primordial Spirit Realm, they would have their Sect’s Primordial Spirit Realm disciples exchange their lives?
This is impossible.
