“Swish!”
Snake Two’s body, as if it had turned into a white serpentine shadow, was quite illusory, and not only was she not pierced through the head by the Dragon Marked Aqua Sword, but instead, her slender and delicate body, wrapped around the Dragon Marked Aqua Sword’s hilt, quickly approached Zhang Ruochen.
Even the powerful sword qi emanating from the Dragon Marked Aqua Sword, which continued to gush out, surprisingly couldn’t injure her for a single moment.
“Dragon Snake Ghost Shadow.”
This was a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Body Martial Skill, most suitable for close combat, once it was performed, it was like a dragon, like a snake, ghostly and pervasive, making it impossible for people to defend against it.
For a cultivator of the Fish Dragon Realm to be able to cultivate a Ghost Grade Upper Grade martial skill to its great completion was an extremely impressive talent.
One must know that even a First Order Half-Saint could become a powerhouse amongst First Order Half-Saints if they were able to cultivate a Ghost Grade Upper Grade martial skill.
A Saint Body of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon would be able to take on a weaker First Order Half-Saint for a few moves if they were able to cultivate into a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Martial Skill.
What’s more, the Dragon Snake Ghost Shadow that Snake Two had cultivated into was still a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Body Martial Skill. Body martial skills were already more difficult to cultivate than normal martial skills. Moreover, in battle, a highly skilled Body Technique Martial Skill was also more capable of exerting an overwhelming advantage.
It could be said that just by relying on the Dragon Snake Ghost Shadow’s body martial skill, Snake Two was able to gain a foothold among the top experts of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon.
Snake Two let out a petulant laugh and condensed her Saint Qi towards her snake-shaped Saint Sword, stabbing it towards Zhang Ruochen’s heart!
In the face of such a brilliant, bizarre, and subtle stance, even Zhang Ruochen was unable to avoid it, and seeing Snake Two’s Saint Sword getting closer and closer, he could only pour his entire body’s Saint Qi into the Meteor Stealth Clothes in a steady stream.
“Boom!”
The serpentine Saint Sword struck Zhang Ruochen’s heart position, colliding with the Saint Light on the surface of the Meteor Invisibility Clothes, and immediately, a circle of Saint Qi ripples were scattered.
The Meteor Invisibility Vest dissolved 90% of the power of the Serpentine Holy Sword, but there was still 10% of the power that passed through the vest and struck Zhang Ruochen’s heart.
Zhang Ruochen only felt a pain in his heart, his whole body tingling, and his body was about to be torn apart, his feet slid backward ten feet in a row, and his body sank sharply downwards before he could stabilise his footsteps.
For a moment, the area around the battle platform became incredibly silent, many of them saw Snake Two stabbing his sword at Lin Yue’s heart.
The heart was the most vulnerable position of a cultivator.
Lin Yue’s heart, suffered from the full force of an expert of Snake Two’s level, where was the possibility of surviving?
“No…… it’s possible……”
Mu Lingshi’s eyes were slightly reddened, very worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety, her ten fingers tightly pinched together, and disregarding her status as the Holy Daughter of the Demon Sect, she immediately rushed towards the battle stage.
“Swish!”
Seeing Mu Lingshi who was close to the battle stage, the chief rat let out a soft eep from his mouth and immediately performed his body technique, like a stream of light, rushing over and stopping in front of Mu Lingshi’s body.
He heatedly smiled, “Little Saintess of the Wood Family, where are you going?”
The chief rat’s gaze was fixed on the top of Mu Lingxi’s overwhelmingly beautiful face, his fingers stroking the beard on his chin, his eyes revealing a lustful light.
Mu Lingshi’s beauty was indeed quite outstanding, it was not too much to call her the first beauty of the Eastern Region, and with the Chief Rat’s lustful character, he was naturally salivating over her.
“You can’t control me.”
Mu Lingshi snorted coldly, a look of contempt in her eyes.
Although Mu Lingshi was not afraid of the Head Rat, she had to admit that with her current cultivation, she was indeed far from being a match for the Head Rat.
With the first rat in the way, Mu Lingshi was simply unable to approach the battle platform.
Not far away, Ouyang Huan naturally also discovered Mu Lingshi’s abnormal behaviour, his pair of wise eyes looked over towards Lin Yue on the battle stage, revealing a thoughtful expression.
The relationship between the Wood Family’s Little Holy Maiden, and Lin Yue, seemed to be somewhat unusual.
On the battle stage.
“Wow!”
Snake Two’s illusory forms overlapped and coalesced into her real body, her gaze staring over towards Zhang Ruochen as she laughed, “To actually force me to perform the Dragon Snake Ghost Shadow, even if you die, it would still be quite an honourable thing to do.”
With that, she walked towards Zhang Ruochen, wanting to retrieve the Divine Dragon Bone.
“Wanting me to die, I’m afraid it’s not that easy.”
Zhang Ruochen, who was half-squatting on the ground, suddenly raised his head and slowly stood up, his palm rubbing the location of his heart.
After which, his gaze then stared towards Snake Two once more, his Saint Qi surging out like a wave of water, releasing an unprecedentedly strong battle intent.
A shocked expression appeared on Snake Two’s face as he immediately took two steps backward, saying, “After enduring one of my swords, you’re actually still able to stand up?”
If it was another person who was struck in the heart by Snake Two’s sword, he would definitely die for sure.
However, Zhang Ruochen had the Golden Dragon’s Dragon Pearl in his heart, which resisted the sword qi, thus, he was not injured, merely the blood and holy qi in his body were rather unhealthy.
After a short period of recuperation just now, he had fully recovered.
Luckily, Snake Two had struck Zhang Ruochen’s heart, which had the strongest defence, if it had struck anywhere else, I’m afraid it would have been enough for him to drink a pot of water.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen stand up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
“Snake Two is indeed very strong, but Lin Yue also seems to have no means of exerting himself, it’s really powerful.”
“This battle is becoming more and more interesting!”
……
“Swoosh!”
With a wave of his arm, Zhang Ruochen cast the Dragon Marked Aqua Sword out and returned it to Ao Xinyan.
Although the Dragon Marked Aqua Sword was a powerful Saint Sword, it was no match for the one from Snake Two. Moreover, it wasn’t Zhang Ruochen’s own sword, and it didn’t have that feeling of flesh and blood, and it wasn’t so handy when it was cast.
It could be used against ordinary experts, but, using it against a strong person like Snake Two, Zhang Ruochen would surely lose.
Snake Two’s eyes blinked, pouted her red lips, and laughed, “Are you going to admit defeat?”
“Of course not. It’s just that using someone else’s sword doesn’t bring out your true strength after all.”Zhang Ruochen said indifferently.
Snake Two said, “Wouldn’t it be that you still have a bottom card that you haven’t used.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes became quite cold and sharp, inspired by his battle intent, the blood in his entire body flowed rapidly as he said in a deep voice, “If you can perform a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Martial Skill, I naturally can as well.”
Hearing these words, the gazes of countless people revealed a strange lustre, it was hard to imagine that Lin Yue, who had only been famous for a few months, had actually cultivated a Ghost Grade Upper Grade martial skill as well.
Was this even possible?
Right in front of everyone’s eyes, Zhang Ruochen inspired the invisibility power of the Meteor Invisibility Suit and instantly disappeared from his original spot, becoming invisible.
Snake Two’s eyes narrowed as she unleashed her powerful spiritual power, and soon noticed the fluctuation of holy qi in the air.
Then, the corner of her mouth, revealed a sneer, ”What’s the use of being invisible? As long as there are power fluctuations in your body, I’ll be able to spot your location in the first place …… er …… this is ……”
Suddenly, Snake Two’s face, became quite grave.
Where Zhang Ruochen had just stood, there was actually a powerful force emanating from him, causing her to feel an invisible pressure.
