“Fatty, shoot another arrow with that exact same arc!” Luo Tian shouted.
Kailin and the others were all experts of the Holy Spirit realm, yet before their attacks could even get close, they were dispersed by a blade of telepathic energy from the Ancient King. And most of them had suffered significant injuries!
Only Fatty’s attack had managed to hit the Ancient King.
Although it showed a miss and dealt zero damage...
Could this be a coincidence?
Was it a lapse in the Ancient King’s defense?
Luo Tian wasn’t certain. However, he firmly believed in one thing: since this was a quest, there had to be a way to crack it. This was just like the development of a game: No matter how powerful a boss was, there would always be a specific strategy to defeat it!
Liu Zhan immediately replied, “Got it!”
Following the exact same pattern, Liu Zhan unleashed another freezing arrow with all his might, copying his previous shot.
“Swoosh~!”
Luo Tian stared at the arrow, tracking its arc without missing a single frame.
The arrow soared into the sky, then plummeted vertically!
It dropped down right past the edge of the sealing stone.
“Boom~!”
The freezing attribute exploded on the Ancient King’s body!
It was a flawless strike!
This...
Luo Tian felt a surge of excitement and immediately sent a voice transmission to Kailin: “Retreat quickly! I think I’ve found a way to deal with the Ancient King. Get back here now!”
Kailin and her paladins were organizing a new round of attacks.
If they did not retreat now, they would not be able to withstand the Ancient King’s attacks much longer. The Ancient King’s telepathic damage was simply too terrifying. It was only because of the paladins’ heaven-defying defense that they survived. If it had been Fatty Liu, he would have been hacked to pieces long ago!
Without hesitation, Kailin immediately ordered, “Retreat!”
“Boom, boom, boom~!”
The paladins quickly fell back.
Kailin looked at Luo Tian and asked, “What’s the plan?”
Luo Tian looked at Liu Zhan and said, “Fatty, fire another ordinary arrow using the same strength and arc as before, but change it slightly. Try to shift the arrow’s trajectory one meter away from that stone hovering in midair.”
“Got it!”
With his Bow and Arrow bloodline, let alone one meter, he wouldn’t deviate by even a single centimeter as long as there was no external interference!
“Swoosh~!”
The arrow soared into the air before coming down.
“Swish~!”
It still landed with absolute precision right on top of the Ancient King’s head.
The Ancient King sneered, “Is that the best you can do? This attack didn’t even have enough strength to tickle me. Luo Tian, you think a bunch of trash like you people can kill me? I think you must be tired of living.”
“Being arrogant?!”
The corner of Luo Tian’s mouth curled up slightly as he said, “Let’s see how much longer you can stay arrogant.”
“Fatty!”
“Try shifting it by two meters!” Luo Tian asked once again.
Everyone stared at Luo Tian, completely unable to figure out what he was trying to do.
What difference would a shift of one or two meters make?
The damage caused by Fatty’s cultivation was completely useless against the Ancient King. Even shifting it by a hundred meters would not make the slightest difference. They did not understand, and Liu Zhan did not know either, but they knew one thing: Trust Luo Tian!
“Swoosh~!”
The arrow shot down.
The Ancient King looked up, and a blast of demonic flame surged upward.
“Fwoosh~!”
“Boom~!”
The arrow disintegrated into dust.
The Ancient King burst into crazy laughter once again before saying, “I told you, this kind of attack is completely useless against me. Even if you gathered all the experts of the entire world, you couldn’t harm a single hair on my head. Hahaha... Luo Tian, you had better obediently listen to me and remove that stone. I can make every single one of you the strongest in this world.”
“You have no choice!”
“None of you have a path for retreat, either. The Beast Tamer of the Guardian Race has already sealed the exit with runic thorns. You cannot get out at all. Only I can lead you out.” The Ancient King spoke as if he had seen through everything.
He was absolutely sure he had Luo Tian cornered!
Looking at the stone hovering in midair, Luo Tian’s mind went into overdrive calculating.
Seeing Luo Tian staring at the stone, the Ancient King smiled and said, “A wise man submits to circumstances, Luo Tian. One thought leads to heaven, one thought leads to hell. Whether you want heaven or hell depends entirely on your choice.”
“Everyone back up!” Luo Tian suddenly shouted.
His body sank down slightly before he suddenly flew off. Following the arc and trajectory of the arrow Liu Zhan had just shot, he came to a halt half a meter away from the stone, hovering in midair.
Everyone was shocked by his actions!
The Ancient King’s eyes flashed with excitement.
They all thought Luo Tian was about to grab that stone.
The Saintess’s expression tightened. Staring at Luo Tian, her white sword began to hum with a ringing sound.
She could not allow the Ancient King to break free from the stone’s control.
She wanted to make a move!
But upon looking at Luo Tian, her heart was filled with inner conflict.
Liu Zhan commented, “Boss must have figured out a way to deal with this guy.”
The Saintess clenched her fingers, suppressing the humming sword intent from her white blade while her brow furrowed tightly.
At this moment, no one’s heart was more conflicted than hers.
Nor was anyone more tense.
Her sole purpose in coming to the Pangu Mountains was to prevent the Ancient King from breaking free.
If he were to be released, blood would flow like rivers across the entire continent, leading to eternal damnation. And the entire Ancient World would be plunged into a massive crisis!
She was capable of striking Luo Tian down.
But in the end, she chose to trust him. She did not even understand why she was making such an irrational decision. Those of the Phoenix Sky Mountain were never supposed to be bound by emotions.
Meanwhile, Luo Tian had a smile on his face. Looking down from above, he stared at the Ancient King and said, “Do you really think I’m going to remove this stone?”
The stone was just an arm’s reach from Luo Tian.
He could grab it just by stretching out his hand.
Luo Tian carefully examined the ordinary stone and discovered that it was covered in tiny, hair-thin inscriptions. All of them were mysterious runes, and he couldn’t understand a single word. He then said to himself, “Just how much power does this thing have to be able to suppress even the Ancient King?”
The Ancient King was momentarily stunned before saying, “Remove it at once, or else...”
“Still acting arrogant in front of this daddy?!”
“Master, oh Master, this spot must be your Achilles’ heel, right?”
Luo Tian suddenly swung his longsword, “Buddha’s Fury!”
“Crush him!”
“Boom~!”
A Vajra glaring with rage loomed from above and struck downward.
The Ancient King’s expression became incredibly ugly. Facing the crushing force of the Vajra, he had no reaction at all!
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to react!
It was that he simply couldn’t!
It was all because of the suppression stone above his head, a divine artifact from beyond this world.
According to legend, it was the Heaven-Upheaval Seal, something even gods feared!
It could instantaneously obliterate the power of the Heavenly Dao. In a minor plane like this, there was nothing more perverted than it. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to suppress the Ancient King for tens of thousands of years, let alone pinning him down to the point where he couldn’t even move an inch!
This was where its terrifying power lay.
“Boom~!”
“-1.”
A bright red number floated above the Ancient King’s head.
His health bar was finally revealed!
Luo Tian grew excited as he shouted to himself, “I found the bug!”
