Yuan's Ascension

Chapter 194: Kill! The Terrifying Wu Yuan (2)

Clang! Clang! Clang! Blade rays and sword lights clashed, sending shockwaves through the ground. The collision between these two top-tier martial artists wrecked the ground.

This spectacle caused the onlookers' faces to contort in shock.

How is this possible? Zhong Jun and Dong Jiu couldn't believe their eyes. The grand elder is actually being pushed back and forced to retreat in a direct confrontation? Just how strong is this Shadow Blade?

On their journey here, they had witnessed Jin Qing sweep through all opposition. From the redsoil assassins to the tree demons, and even the spirit fruit guardians, he had been unstoppable.

This was the first time Jin Qing voluntarily retreated after encountering an adversary. The meaning of this required no explanation.

Wu Yuan overpowers Jin Qing in combat? Bu Yu watched this astonishing scene, her astonishment mingled with excitement.

She vividly remembered the moment the Fourth Eldritch Realm was first unlocked, when Wu Yuan could barely hold his own against Jin Qing, constantly at a disadvantage. In the end, it was Song Guang that stopped the battle.

Back then, Jin Qing had the advantage of spirit battle armor. But objectively speaking, even without armor, Wu Yuan was no match for Jin Qing. But now? The tables had turned.

Die! I refuse to believe it! How did he become so strong? Jin Qing roared with fury, his desperation evident as he put up a desperate resistance against Wu Yuan.

Sword lights flashed, resplendent in their brilliance! However, the exquisite sword lights were repeatedly shattered by crimson rays, their volatile hue akin to an erupting volcano, emanating an unstoppable, raging might.

Bang! One saber strike after another landed on the sword. Wu Yuan stood firm and unwavering, while Jin Qing was forced to retreat time and time again. The sheer power behind each saber strike reverberated through his divine sword, the pressure like a mighty mountain threatening to crush him. It was beyond anything Jin Qing had ever experienced.

The impact of each strike contains at least one million catties of force! Jin Qings mind struggled to comprehend what was going on. Just days ago, Wu Yuan had been no match for him, but now, in the blink of an eye, he found himself overpowered. The rate of Wu Yuan's improvement was nothing short of terrifying.

His physical constitution and martial skill are both superior to mine. I am no match for him. Though it was hard to swallow, Jin Qing had faced countless life-and-death battles. When defeat was imminent, he knew he had to make a swift decision.

Run! Blocking Wu Yuan's saber strike with his sword, he leveraged the momentum to dart several hundred meters away.

In less than one breath, both parties exchanged more than a hundred blows, and Jin Qing decided to make his escape.

Wu Yuan's gaze turned icy cold as he watched Jin Qing flee. "Where do you think you can escape to?"

With Threefold Power Surge, his legs pushed off the ground with one million catties of force, propelling him at a mind-boggling speed of nearly 800 meters per second. Wu Yuan pursued his fleeing opponent, unwilling to let him slip away.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! In the midst of their pursuit, Wu Yuan flicked his wrist and a trio of streaking lights hurtled towards Zhong Jun and Dong Jiu, who were engaged in a fierce clash with Bu Yu.

One million catties of force, combined with Unity with the environment, made for an instantaneous and surreptitious assault. The three throwing knives sailed toward their targets at a bone-chilling velocity, surpassing the speed of sound by five to six times. In the blink of an eye, the throwing knives arrived before the two Great Grandmasters.

Not good! Zhong Juns face paled. With astoundingly swift reflexes, he evaded the throwing knife. The brawny Dong Jiu, however, was just a fraction slower.

The trajectory of the throwing knives was simply too strange, rendering it nearly imperceptible unless one maintained constant vigilance, even for a Grandmaster.

Nonetheless, on the precipice of life and death, Dong Jiu managed to dodge the throwing knife, subsequently launching a forceful swing of his hammer toward the final throwing knife.

Bang! The moment the two weapons clashed, the hammer flew from his grip. At the same time, Dong Jiu's body soared like a meteor, hurtling backward at a tremendous velocity.

Whoosh! A pale green afterimage flashed by, and a beam of sword light cleaved through the sky. A head soared high, spattering the surroundings with crimson.

Dong Jiu, a Great Grandmaster of Great Jin, was dead!

The perpetrator behind this act was none other than Bu Yu herself. Her strength was tied with the combined power of the two Grandmasters, until Wu Yuan's triple throwing knives broke the stalemate, creating an opening for her.

"Youre the last one," Bu Yu declared coolly, stashing away Dong Jiu's countless treasures as she fixed her gaze on Zhong Jun.

Run! Without a moment's hesitation, Zhong Jun fled. Previously when Dong Jiu was still alive, they fought two against one, giving them the courage to put up a fight against Bu Yu. Alone? Theoretically, there was a glimmer of hope for victory. However, the odds of actually winning were no more than ten percent.

Whoosh! Bu Yu pursued him immediately. With Wu Yuan handling Jin Qing, she was not afraid of any other expert from Great Jins team. Even if she met Yue Shanzhong, she had a decent chance of coming out on top.

Dong Jiu is dead, only Zhong Jun remains, and he ran off! Wu Yuan caught a glimpse of the fleeing figure out of the corner of his eye. A weight on his shoulders was now lifted.

As powerful as Wu Yuan was, killing a Grandmaster who had reached the level of Perception with throwing knives from 2 li away was almost impossible. Perhaps if he was only tens or hundreds of meters away from his target, it was still doable. But for a long-range attack, Grandmasters had ample time to react, a slight shift to the side would be enough to evade it.

After all, no matter how strong Wu Yuan's Soul Force was, he couldn't alter the trajectory of a throwing knife launched from two li away.

However, Wu Yuan's purpose was to create an opportunity for Bu Yu. And Bu Yu did not disappoint, seizing the moment to kill Dong Jiu.

Once I become an eldritch warrior, I must acquire several powerful spirit throwing knives and cultivate some techniques. Then, Ill be able to freely eliminate my enemies via telekinesis. A thought flickered across Wu Yuan's mind.

Telekinesis was typically an ability of qi refiners, but if an eldritch warrior possessed a strong enough soul, they could also achieve it, albeit with weaker power compared to a qi refiner.

Wu Yuan suppressed the thoughts running through his mind.

Now, only Jin Qing remains. Considering The Rain Hierarchs strength, we should be capable of handling him.

As Wu Yuans gaze settled on the figure clad in black armor, waves of killing intent emanated from his heart. "Jin Qing!"

With Chang Dong's demise, Yuanhu Villa was fated to descend into disarray. Tie Tuo? Wu Yuan had taken a liking to that robust man from the plains.

Great Jin is responsible for Grandmaster Xia Heng's death. Wu Yuan's eyes turned icy. And they also killed my father. This time, Great Jin dispatched a quasi-Heavenly Ranker, intent on annihilating us all from the very beginning.

Great Jin was fated to be his archnemesis. If the Great Jin did not fall, Wu Yuan's heart would never find peace.

"Jin Qing, today I will utilize every ounce of my strength to end you," Wu Yuan declared, swooping downwards like a gargantuan roc in pursuit of Jin Qing.

Clang! Clang! Clang! The rapid clashes stirred up a cloud of dust. Ultimately, Jin Qing was sent soaring through the air, immediately leveraging the momentum to flee.

"Shadow Blade, you may be stronger than me, but it is not an insurmountable difference," Jin Qing brandished his divine sword, bellowing, "You should know that my spirit battle armor renders it impossible for you to kill me."

Their speeds surpassed the threshold of sound, but with Wu Yuan chasing after Jin Qing, his words landed clearly in Wu Yuans ears.

Kill! Wu Yuan kept silent, his gaze unwaveringly locked onto Jin Qing as he left afterimages in his wake. There was no need to reply. Even if he yelled back, Jin Qing wouldnt be able to hear him. As for communicating via Soul Force telepathy? Wu Yuan didn't want Jin Qing to know how powerful his soul was.

Whoosh! Whoosh! The two collided once more, one unleashing nearly 900,000 catties of force, the other approaching one million catties!

Boom~ Jin Qing utilized the force to leap away once again, appearing completely unaffected.

His sword is a first-grade divine weapon, his battle armor is at least ninth-grade spirit armor. Wu Yuan's eyes were icy, not too surprised by how long it was taking to kill Jin Qing. Now that he had his own spirit battle armor, Wu Yuan was well aware of its defensive might.

But, I am faster than you, you cannot escape. Wu Yuan exuded confidence. My battle armor is sturdier, with better impact-dampening capabilities. My physical constitution is more robust, and my resistance to blows is my greatest strength!

I still have ample blood-red mist to relieve my fatigue time and time again! If 100 blows are not enough to kill you, then Ill deal 1000, 10,000,100,000! Wu Yuan's killing intent raged.

If two Grandmasters possessed spirit battle armor and had no weaknesses, then it would ultimately boil down to endurance! The loser was the one who surrendered first!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Wu Yuan and Jin Qing embarked on an intense pursuit across the vast desert, cutting through 100 li in the blink of an eye.

Shadow Blade is trying to deplete my stamina, and then kill me! A chilling realization dawned on Jin Qing.
