Chapter 988: 542 Chapter 988: 542 There was another reason, after all, that Chen Mobai became silent after his graduation. Whether it was studying at the Repairing Heaven Institute or returning to Red Sandstone City to research farming and talismans, the talent he displayed was only of an upper-middle level.
Subsequently, Master Huakai confidently entered secluded cultivation in preparation for the advancement of the Azure Jadeite Sycamore Tree. However, when she emerged, she was shocked by the news she heard.
Chen Mobai had comprehended the path and formed his golden core!
What furrowed her brows even more was that after forming his core, he had unexpectedly chosen neighboring Yu Wood City!
At this time, Master Huakai had already sensed some ominous signs.
So when Yu Tianguang was apprehended by the Immortal Gate, she remained unmoved, allowing Lan Haitian and his companions to take the man away.
Regrettably, she had still underestimated the Immortal Gate’s resolve.
And even more, she had underestimated that fellow’s talent!
Watching the dark purple, fan-shaped sword radiance slashing down from the sky, Master Huakai gritted her teeth and fed it another drop of her own essence blood, which wasn’t much to begin with, and stimulated the mighty power of the sacred tree.
The dark purple sword radiance collided with the sea of flowers, erupting into a thunderous roar that shook heaven and earth!
Petals shattered one by one, yet inch by inch they whittled down the power of the Purple Lightning Sword!
“Although this guy can achieve unity of man and sword, he has only just formed his core. The power of the Purple Lightning Sword he can wield is less than one-tenth, maybe even weaker than the Aurora Starfall Talisman!”
After laboriously erasing the last wisp of the Purple Lightning Sword’s thunderous light, Master Huakai’s eyes flickered with a cold gleam, and petals fell one after another, transforming into several flower clones!
“In one fell swoop, turn those two into cocoons as well, make them nutrients for the sacred tree. That way, the connection with the Azure Jadeite Sycamore can be sped up…”
Countless pitch-black Flying Needles shot down from the sky, piercing the six flower clones full of holes.
Lan Haitian utilized his Six Dominions Scripture. Once the Star Concentrating Stone had absorbed enough spiritual power, it resembled a black sun emerging mid-air, continually extracting specially crafted Flying Needles from within the domain using the resources of the Immortal Gate. He formed an impenetrable Yuan Magnet Domain array, launching piercing assaults from all directions toward Master Huakai, merged as one with the sacred tree.
But Master Huakai simply sneered and waved the branches of the sacred tree, instantly brightening tens of thousands of differently colored petals to block every Flying Needle.
This precise control of divine sense showcased Master Huakai’s superior essence.
“Indeed worthy of being a powerhouse of the Evil Path. As things stand, I can only take a risk. I can probably draw her attention for half a minute. Go try to release Vice Minister Gongsun from the flower cocoon seal. If she can act, the three of us should be able to hold out until the arrival of Narcissus Elder!”
As Lan Haitian spoke, a withered yellow branch shot out from the palm of a green flower clone far away, exploiting the gap when he was channeling spiritual power, and pierced through his Yuan Magnet Domain.
If it weren’t for the Yuan Magnetic Force moving Lan Haitian’s body half a step at the crucial moment, he would have likely been impaled through the heart.
Even so, Lan Haitian still ended up with a hole in his side from the branch.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he gritted his teeth, took out a black flying knife, and cut off the branch in his side.
“Why aren’t you going…”
After doing all this, Lan Haitian realized Chen Mobai hadn’t moved an inch and became extremely anxious, thinking that his lack of experience in magic duels had left him petrified by the gruesome battle!
Boom!
But just then, a thunderous rumble, which had sounded earlier, once again spread to his ears, and the dim Purple Lightning Sword blade lit up with a stunning brilliance once more.
“Sorry, I was fully preparing for the second sword just now, so I couldn’t divert my attention to respond to you,”
said Chen Mobai’s calm voice in Lan Haitian’s ear. He raised his right hand, once again aiming the Purple Lightning Sword at Master Huakai, and brought it down heavily.
The observant Lan Haitian even noticed that the tips of Chen Mobai’s fingers, holding the sword in his right hand, lit up with the colors of the Five Elements, seemingly forming a powerful array that perfectly synchronized with the sword radiance of the Purple Lightning Sword.
The sky lit up with a crescent of dark purple light, which, wherever it passed, turned all the flower clones derived from the sacred tree into a shower of wooden chips and shattered petals without any resistance!
Master Huakai’s face changed dramatically as she threw the Stone Flower Artifact she had refined in her lifetime towards the arc of the Purple Lightning Sword, hoping to detonate the artifact and vent the energy of the sword strike in advance.
But her plan was seen through by Lan Haitian, who had been closely watching the battlefield. He immediately used the Yuan Magnetic Force to move the Star Concentrating Stone along with the remaining thousand or so Flying Needles around the Purple Lightning Sword, hitting the Stone Flower beforehand.
In the midst of the roaring thunder, Lan Haitian’s face suddenly turned pale, and fresh blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
This meant his Lifespan Artifact was severely damaged and could even be destroyed!
But his action allowed Chen Mobai’s arc of Purple Lightning Sword light to slash unimpeded onto the sacred tree.
“`
Amid the harsh grating noise, the Purple Electric Sword deeply sliced into the deepest part of the treasure tree.
On the left side of Master Huakai’s shoulder, waist, and legs, a deep sword mark that reached the bone became visible, with fresh blood spraying out incessantly.
Amid violent coughing!
Master Huakai clasped his hands in a seal, resorting to a forbidden technique that he had thought he would never use again!
At this moment, high above in the sky, a dark purple arc of light once again lit up!
Chen Mobai’s face was pale, but he held the Purple Electric Sword with a resolute expression, slashing down the third sword strike of the day!
Master Huakai’s eyes widened, staring fixedly at the handsome young man in the sky who was swinging the sword down, as if to etch his visage deeply in his memory.
Following that, the dark-purple fan-shaped arc of light descended, and along the sword mark that had already split the treasure tree, it cut Master Huakai into two.
Blood spread all over the sea, and the treasure tree lost its brilliance entirely.
A withered and broken Stone Flower also fell from mid-air, landing right on the top of Master Huakai’s head, whose eyes were still wide open in death.
“Is it over?”
Lan Haitian asked with some disbelief.
He had thought that this time things looked grim and that they might lose one or two.
To his surprise, Chen Mobai had made three successive strikes, slicing the illustrious Master Huakai of the Ascension Sect down!
“The power of my single sword strike might not match your Aurora Starfall Talisman, but it also possesses Rank-4 might. With three strikes, I think he should be dead!”
Chen Mobai was also unsure, as his opponent was no minor character.
Moreover, he had few experiences using the Purple Electric Sword to kill Golden Core Masters. Those powers from the Ancient Evil Path Union might have some deception or escape techniques!
“You burn her with true fire,” said Lan Haitian hesitantly to Chen Mobai.
Chen Mobai immediately took out the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror and activated the Pure Yang Fire, directing it onto both halves of Master Huakai’s corpse and the treasure tree.
However, this Pure Yang Fire was too balanced and peaceful and couldn’t ignite the corpse and the treasure tree.
“Chen brother, have you not cultivated the ‘Great Sun Qianyang Fire’ from the Pure Yang Scroll?” asked Lan Haitian, somewhat surprised seeing this.
“I’ve only formed my core recently; when would I have had the time?” replied Chen Mobai truthfully. The Pure Yang Scroll’s core formation section contained many spells, and the Great Sun Qianyang Fire was a signature of the Pure Yang cultivators from the Immortal Gate, one of the six great precious flames. It’s created by combining Pure Yang Fire, Great Sun Fire, and one’s own pill fire. When cultivated to the extreme, even the void could be burned to nothingness.
However, he was always uninterested in techniques that couldn’t rely on resources for cultivation.
“Hey, you kid did quite well, didn’t you?”
Just at that moment, the void opened, and the Jade Narcissus, with her white hair, white eyebrows, and skin like jade, walked in. Seeing Master Huakai’s body with eyes wide open in death upon the ocean, she looked at Chen Mobai with some surprise.
With her realm, she could instantly see the Purple Lightning Sword Power lingering on Master Huakai’s corpse.
“Deputy Division Chief Gongsun and Deputy Head Lan first depleted most of her spiritual power and essence blood, which allowed me the chance to strike her down. I dare not take all the credit,” Chen Mobai said humbly.
The Jade Narcissus listened and then sized him up again, nodding her head in satisfaction.
Afterward, she snapped her fingers, and amidst the whirling of heaven and earth, they had left the Beiming Domain and returned to the Danxia Mountain Range.
“I gave you some face, and left him a breath of life,” the Jade Narcissus pointed toward Yu Tianguang, who was unconscious and trapped within a huge water sphere.
“Thank you, Elder!”
Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
