King of Creation
Chapter 493: Chapter 487: The Secret of Turning the Impossible into Possible
"Impossible?!"
"How is this possible?"
The first exclamation of shock was Ye Zhen’s incredulous outcry, and the second was Ye Zhen having accepted the current situation yet finding it incomprehensible!
Impossible!
Once, when he had teamed up with Lul Xiao, it was these Soul Chasing Three Arrows that had caused a Martial Artist of the Vein Forging Realm to suffer greatly; the Protective Spirit Force was directly shattered by these three arrows, which then allowed Lul Xiao to strike successfully amidst the chaos.
But the issue now was that the same three arrows, when used on Ye Zhen, a Spirit Transformation Realm Fifth Stage Warrior, had the same effect as they had when used against the strong warrior of the Vein Forging Realm....
Ye Zhen had taken his three arrows head-on, and aside from shattering the Protective Spirit Force, he was completely unharmed, with no sign of damage to his Divine Soul.
For a moment, Ye Zhen felt as if he were in a dream.
Even Luo Yingzi and Lul Xiao, who were locked in fierce combat, were both startled by this scene, paused at the same time. Fortunately, both were equally shocked, otherwise one of them would have been in a sorry state.
As for the other three Profound Yin Sect disciples, who had not yet taken action, they were still reeling from Ye Zhen’s previous shocking feat of killing Ling Baiyi in a single move and were astonished by this turn of events, finding themselves completely dumbfounded.
With a slight shrug of his shoulders, the Red Jade Spirit Armor that had just been shattered began to cover Ye Zhen’s body once more.
"How did you do it?" After confirming that Ye Zhen was completely unharmed once more, an utterly baffled Guz Bufan foolishly asked Ye Zhen.
"How did I do it? You’ll find out soon enough!"
A cold smile appeared on the corner of Ye Zhen’s mouth as he moved and charged toward Guz Bufan. Ye Zhen had been forced to take a risk and catch those three Soul Chasing Spirit Arrows head-on due to Guz Bufan’s sneak attack while he was focused on killing Ling Baiyi. Now, it was out of Guz Bufan’s hands.
Seeing Ye Zhen attacking, Guz Bufan’s fingers tightened, and he once again gripped the Giant Bow, but no one noticed the flicker of Thunder Light in Ye Zhen’s palm.
Speaking of which, Ye Zhen had indeed taken a huge risk by being forced to catch those three Spirit Arrows. He had nearly used up all of his hidden techniques, something unknown to others.
The three arrows were aimed at Ye Zhen’s brow, throat, and heart — three vital spots. A hit on any of them could have ended Ye Zhen’s life.
Ye Zhen was formerly an expert user of Spirit Arrows, and from the whistling sounds and the whirlwinds raised during their flight, he was able to gauge the power of the arrows.
If he had taken them head-on, his Red Jade Spirit Armor could, at best, withstand only one arrow. The other two were bound to hit him.
There was no dodging them, leaving only a risky move as an option.
What risky move?
The risky move that Ye Zhen had used to catch the three arrows was actually an inspiration he had had earlier.
Back in the Black Dragon Domain, Ye Zhen once chased a Blood Demon Guardian of the Blood God Sect. The chase led to Wanji Peak, where he encountered the Guardian Blood Spirit. During battle, he was almost overwhelmed by the Blood River Suppression of the Blood Demon Guardian Blood Spirit and nearly perished.
At the brink of life and death, Ye Zhen had a spark of inspiration and channeled all the Blood River from the Blood Demon Guardian’s Blood Spirit into the Mirage Dragon Pearl, averting that crisis.
This time was essentially the same.
At the critical moment, Ye Zhen’s body twisted like a snake, positioning the Mirage Dragon Pearl at Danzhong Acupoint on his chest to face the third Spirit Arrow targeting his heart.
The moment the arrow’s light touched his body, the Mirage Dragon Pearl slightly activated, exerting a massive suction force; the third Spirit Arrow silently disappeared inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl, contributing a bit of effort to unlocking the third seal of the Pearl.
The most lethal threat was the second Spirit Arrow aimed at Ye Zhen’s throat, which would have been nearly impossible to dodge before, leaving Ye Zhen no choice but to grit his teeth and take the hit, relying on luck.
But now, Ye Zhen possessed another powerful tool—the Demon Soul Hall!
Although Ye Zhen had only just obtained the Demon Soul Hall and was not yet very familiar with the usage of this war fortress, he still knew the basics.
With a thought, Ye Zhen only had to slightly activate the Demon Soul Hall hanging on his chest, enlarging it slightly. A wave of Spiritual Power surged out, and the Demon Soul Hall abruptly lifted, perfectly intercepting the second Spirit Arrow shooting towards Ye Zhen’s throat.
The instant the Spirit Arrow struck the Demon Soul Hall, the door facing the arrow—better described as a small gate—abruptly swung open. Then, the second extremely powerful Soul Chasing Spirit Arrow from Soul Chasing Arrow Valley disappeared into the abyss, vanishing straight down the passageway of the Demon Soul Hall.
In this way, two of the troublesome three Spirit Arrows directly vanished.
The terror of these three Spirit Arrows was in their number; a single Spirit Arrow was not much, but three together were extremely frightening.
Now that two Spirit Arrows had disappeared, the remaining one was no longer a problem for Ye Zhen. He toughed it out with the Red Jade Spirit Armor!
It must be said, the power of the Spirit Arrows from Soul Chasing Arrow Valley was indeed horrifying. In a blink, Ye Zhen’s Red Jade Spirit Armor was riddled with over a thousand cracks and crumbled instantly.
A shard of the residual arrow brutally struck Ye Zhen’s forehead, causing a slight pain and a faint sway in his Divine Soul, suggesting that the Soul Chasing Spirit Arrow must have contained Divine Soul Power, which is why it’s called Soul Chasing.
However, Ye Zhen’s Divine Soul Cultivation was no trifling matter, and his Divine Soul was unharmed. There was only a faint red mark left between his eyebrows.
This was the secret technique that allowed Ye Zhen to astonish Luo Yingzi, Lul Xiao, Guz Bufan, and others, yet remain unscathed after withstanding the Soul Chasing Three Arrows.
Others had no knowledge, nor could they possibly imagine, that Ye Zhen possessed wonders such as the Mirage Dragon Pearl and the Demon Soul Hall. Ye Zhen made the impossible possible, naturally causing utter astonishment!
As for the instant defeat of Ling Baiyi with a flick of his finger, that was entirely by Ye Zhen’s own skill, without relying on any external objects.
The Vital Vein Forging Divine Ability was considered a Martial Arts Divine Power precisely because of its power; even though it was a supportive Divine Ability, its strength was substantial!
With the realm achieved by integrating the Sword Manual of Extinction into Sword Heart Enlightenment, Ling Baiyi’s moves, in Ye Zhen’s eyes, were as predictable as straight lines.
The reason Ye Zhen’s fingertip could trail Ling Baiyi like a shadow was simple: Ye Zhen’s Sword Heart Enlightenment had been perfected over a year, and the Heart Sword Killing Move from Sword Heart Enlightenment had been honed to perfection by Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen was not one to adhere too rigidly to convention. While contemplating the Heart Sword, he considered integrating it into other techniques.
To accomplish this, Ye Zhen had made many attempts, integrating Sword Technique, Red Jade Seal, and Black Dragon Tyrant of Heaven Style, but was unable to combine them with the mental method of the Heart Sword.
Only this Floating Cloud Finger could be combined with the mental method of Heart Sword, resulting in a tremendous increase in power!
However, purely in terms of attack power, the Floating Cloud Finger still fell short when compared to the Heart Sword driven by Sword Heart Enlightenment, but the unique function of the Floating Cloud Finger to break through opponent’s momentum and shatter their Protective Spirit Force wasn’t something the Heart Sword could replace.
This combination of factors led to Ye Zhen’s victory over Ling Baiyi with a single strike, a testament to Ye Zhen’s accumulated strength over the years, and not a matter of luck.
Boom!
A thunderous noise suddenly erupted in the gloomy darkness of the Secret Realm, and everyone only felt their vision brighten and then darken as a burnt smell wafted abruptly to their noses.
At the same time, Guz Bufan’s trembling screams of terror filled the air, and when everyone turned in shock, they saw Gu Bufan’s body emitting black smoke, and even his giant bow, which he never parted with, had fallen to the ground!
"Go!"
"Save him!"
Watching Ye Zhen rush to the aid, Lul Xiao roared in anger. At that moment, the remaining three Martial Artists from the Profound Moon Sect, who were still in a state of stunned confusion, moved simultaneously to intercept Ye Zhen.
Seeing these three confronting him, Ye Zhen naturally showed no mercy. The Thunder Light in his palm flashed continuously, and the thunderous rumbling echoed incessantly.
Sizzle!
The fastest rushing Martial Artist from the Profound Moon Sect at the Fourth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm was the first to suffer, struck by the Heavenly Thunder of Fright, trembling uncontrollably, clearly heavily injured.
Seeing this, despite their fear, the other two Martial Artists from the Profound Moon Sect launched their killing moves, attacking Ye Zhen with lightning speed, hoping to save their comrade!
Roar!
An intimidating tiger roar suddenly filled the air.
A flash of white light burst forth from Ye Zhen’s chest, and in just a moment, the head of the Martial Artist from the Profound Moon Sect at the Fourth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm was sent flying.
"Yi Liang!"
Lul Xiao bellowed furiously, his eyes nearly bursting as he watched his junior brother’s head fly into the air!
In a mere hundred breaths, he had already lost two disciples, such a rate of casualties was unprecedented in the history of the Profound Moon Sect.
But even as Lul Xiao roared in fury, he was too preoccupied to intervene, entangled as he was with the demoness Luo Yingzi, and he dared not be distracted.
The demoness Luo Yingzi was naturally alluring, with exceptional charming skills. Even the slightest carelessness in battle could give her charming skills an advantage, weakening an opponent’s full strength by sixty to seventy percent. The outcome was predictable.
This was the origin of Luo Yingzi’s title as a demoness; many young talents had been ruined at her hands.
At this moment, Luo Yingzi, who was tightly entangled with Lul Xiao, had her eyes flashing with surprise.
She truly hadn’t expected much from Ye Zhen, who had seemingly appeared out of nowhere, and while his cultivation was only at the Fifth Stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, his combat power was terrifying!
But reflecting on how she had been outperformed by Ye Zhen several times before, she felt at ease.
Boom!
In a rapid succession of confrontations, Ye Zhen’s Thunder Light of Fright struck again, and like before, another Martial Artist from the Profound Moon Sect at the Fourth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm was directly hit.
"Yi Shan, be careful!"
Seeing the giant Cloud Winged Tiger King pounce on the stricken Yi Shan, Lul Xiao roared with rage.
However, what Lul Xiao didn’t know was that no matter how loudly he warned, his junior brother Yi Shan was powerless to dodge at this moment. Afflicted by the formidable Heavenly Thunder Power within his body, he couldn’t even control his fingers, let alone conjure Spiritual Power, and he could only watch helplessly as the Cloud Winged Tiger King’s massive claw headed for his head!
Whiz!
A sharply pointed arrowhead blade, whistling with the sound of slicing through the air, rushed in fiercely, aiming for the Cloud Winged Tiger King’s eyes.
It was Guz Bufan, who had taken a hit from Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Thunder of Fright earlier, managing to recover in time to save Yi Shan’s life with his intervention.
Boom boom boom!
As Guz Bufan saved Yi Shan in that moment, the Heavenly Thunder of Fright roared continuously. The last of the Profound Moon Sect’s Martial Artists at the Third Stage of the Soul Sea Realm facing Ye Zhen perished under three Heavenly Thunders of Fright, silently turning into charred remains without even letting out a scream!
The sound of a bowstring vibrating suddenly rang out as Guz Bufan attacked Ye Zhen frenziedly. At most, with one bow, nine arrows, his Spirit Arrows densely packed like rain assailed Ye Zhen, putting him on the defensive and throwing him into disarray for a while!
"Get ready!"
Suddenly, a shrill cry bellowed from Lul Xiao’s mouth, and Guz Bufan’s expression turned solemn as he relentlessly pressed the attack on Ye Zhen.
The bow drawn full circle, five Spirit Arrows quickly formed, as Guz Bufan’s figure swiftly retreated.
This scene startled Ye Zhen, knowing that if these five arrows were of the same caliber as the ones fired before, whether he could catch them was known only to the heavens.
Therefore, at this moment, Ye Zhen absolutely couldn’t let Guz Bufan fire that arrow.
His figure turned like lightning, and the Thunder Light suddenly emerged from the palm of Ye Zhen’s hand.
"Ye Zhen, die for me!"
Suddenly, Lul Xiao shot toward Ye Zhen with the speed of lightning, swooping down like a gray eagle. (To be continued.
