Chapter 189: Demon Ape vs Xuan Hao!
Ching~
Grabbing hold of his sword, Xuan Hao executed the Sword Shadow Move from the Untold Swords Mantra for the second time since learning it.
Whoosh~
A calm wind blew through the barren landscape created by the demon ape's earlier attack and an almost invisible shadow suddenly appeared in front of the demon ape.
"Roar?" Letting out a confused roar upon seeing the small sword shadow suddenly appear in front of it, the demon ape instinctively knew that the sword shadow was far more dangerous than anything that it had ever encountered before!
Boom!
Surging with energy, the demon ape put up both its hands to block the incoming attack. It's qi erupting from its body as it formed black barrier in front of its two arms, small electric currents running over the surface of the barrier making it look even more intimidating.
Only a split second passed from when the demon ape set up its defensive barrier and the Sword Shadow by Xuan Hao finally hit the defensive barrier of the demon ape.
Compared to the last time where the sword energy erupted out into a giant vortex made of sword qi covering the skies and sweeping through the surroundings, this time was different.
Psh!
The sword shadow easily pierced a tiny hole through the barrier and pierced into the demon ape as the sword vortex hidden inside of the sword shadow erupted out.
The gentle wind blowing through the ancient forest soon turned into a furious storm that swept through the surroundings as a small vortex made of sword qi formed around the demon ape.
"Looks like I still failed…" Trying his best to keep the sword vortex under control, Xuan Hao had a disappointed look on his face as he observed the demon ape being covered in a dark aura that protected it against the sword vortex's constant barrage of attacks.
The demon ape had a way easier time defending against the sword vortex as the attack was not as concentrated as the earlier sword shadow where the vortex had concentrated into the tiny sword shadow and easily penetrated through its defences.
Roar!
Letting out a heaven shaking roar, the demon ape forcefully dispelled the sword vortex surrounding it as the dark aura defending it dispersed.
Xuan Hao did not really stop this and had already given up on wasting his energy to keep the sword vortex up and running. Allowing for the demon ape to dispel it uncontested.
At this point, Xuan Hao had not really wasted too much of his qi reserves as he decided to not keep the sword vortex up, while the demon ape had already used a large majority of its energy.
"Guess I should end this quickly…" Glancing over in the direction of the gorge where the demonic aura from the other demon beast awakening could be felt growing stronger and stronger with each passing second, Xuan Hao did not waste any time as he attack the demon ape without any special sword moves or techniques.
Just simple sword attacks strengthened by both his qi and his pseudo sword domain. Making even a simple attack from Xuan Hao deadly to the demon ape without wasting too much of his own energy in the process.
ROAR!
The demon ape roared loudly as it saw Xuan Hao suddenly come over to attack himself and prepared to launch an attack itself, but upon reaching the distance of a dozen or so meters from Xuan Hao, it suddenly felt its movement being restricted as it felt something all around it constantly trying to cut into it.
Psh~
Blood splattered out from the demon apes back as it felt the unseen force successfully cutting through its skin.
It did not take long before the demon ape realized that it had to keep up a constant barrier around its body to defend against the unseen force constantly trying to cut into it from all directions, while also having to block Xuan Hao's constant barrage of attacks.
This was one of the most useful abilities of Xuan Hao's pseudo sword domain when dealing with opponents that could not just be outright killed by it and best of all, Xuan Hao did not even have to use any of his qi to constantly keep up his domain!
The only demerit was that he would begin growing exhausted after an extensive use of his pseudo sword domain, but this did not matter much as he did not plan for the current fight to continue for much longer.
Like this, Xuan Hao kept on a constant offensive against the demon ape as it tried its best to defend, but this was not meant to last as the demon ape's defence grew weaker and weaker with each passing second.
Swish~
A sword slash by Xuan Hao soon managed to break through the defences of the demon ape as the sword directly cut into the left arm of the demon ape, cleaning cutting it off.
ROAR!
The demon ape let out a roar filled with pain as it tried its best to retreat, but it was too late as Xuan Hao used the opening created by the demon ape.
"Cloudburst!"
Xuan Hao channelled his qi as he used the final move of the Rain Sword, Cloudburst.
Sword qi rapidly formed around the edge of the sword and merged together with Xuan Hao's Sword Intent as a streak of sword light exploded out from the sword and headed straight for the retreating demon ape.
Together with the sword light, the demon ape faintly heard the sound of rain as it turned around only to see the sword light already appear directly in front of it.
A terrifying rainstorm engulfed it briefly as the illusion ended the sword qi gathered inside of the sword light exploded outwards a few meters away from the demon ape, raining down on the demon ape in the shape of countless tiny raindrops.
Roa-
The demon ape did not even manage to let out one last roar as the raindrops formed from the sword qi hit it and created countless small holes in its giant furry body. Killing it in an instant.
