Chapter 336 - 311: Another Battle with Wu Hao_1
Seven arrows rushed forward like meteor chasing after the moon, aimed at the vital points of Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo, their power shockingly immense.
Judging from the True Vigor contained in the arrows, the perpetrator was likely of the King’s True Body, with a Cultivation Level that had reached the True Body Seventh Refinement, utilizing an exceptional archery technique, most likely having achieved the Unity of Man and Martial Arts.
Thoughts reeling, Lu Yan made a rough judgement, not daring to be careless.
"Dragon Leading Hand."
Lu Yan applied a move from the True Dragon Nine Strikes, his hands motioning as if grasping and releasing mid-air, releasing a surge of powerful vigor, covering the seven arrows. The seven arrows quivered fiercely, and following a flick of Lu Yan’s hands, veered off its path, and flew to the side, striking the ground and creating seven huge pits.
Instantly, his body was covered with scales and rose, he exchanged a blow with Wu Hao.
Boom!
It was as if a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, Wu Hao’s body trembled, he flew backward and retreated for more than ten steps.
Following that, Lu Yan issued three more moves in succession, repelling a young man and two older men, resulting in them coughing up blood continuously.
At the same time, Shen Yinuo called out to her Great Sun Melting Furnace, blocking the attacks of the other six people entirely.
"It’s you two..."
Wu Hao roared in fury. Recognizing Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo from the moment he attacked, his rage and murderous intent intensified.
"These two, they’re exceptionally strong. The nine of you, join forces and go all out against the woman, kill her first, then back me up."
"Junior Brother Liu, assist me with your archery to handle this guy."
Wu Hao quickly issued orders, his last words were directed towards the young man in the sky.
That young man was already drawing his bow, launching several arrows consecutively, all aimed at Lu Yan.
Admittedly, this man’s archery skills were superior. The arrows traced an eerie arc in the sky, attacking Lu Yan’s vital points from all directions, targeting his eyes, lower body, and other critical areas.
Wu Hao himself went all out, invoking the Armor Miracle that shielded his body, utilizing the Martial God’s Secret to its utmost extent. He lunged at Lu Yan, his palms striking out, compressing the air violently, resulting in a terrifying shriek.
Before his palm reached, the palm strength bore down on Lu Yan like a colossal mountain.
If a common cultivator at the True Body Seventh Refinement had to face such an attack, they would undoubtedly be crushed to death.
Lu Yan directly activated the seventh level of True Dragon War Body, briefly veering to avoid a few arrows. He then reached out and caught the remaining arrows, throwing them violently at the young man in the sky.
Simultaneously, he struck out with his left hand, exchanging a move with Wu Hao.
Even with only his left hand, he succeeded in forcing Wu Hao into a hasty retreat.
Then, pushing off with both legs as if a divine dragon taking flight, he rushed towards Wu Hao, unleashing one killing move after another.
Wu Hao fought back with all his might, but he was forced back after just one exchange. His hands stung painfully, as if his bones were on the verge of breaking.
Normally unbeatable techniques of Martial God’s Secret and Armor Miracle seemed to lose their power.
His mind shook with shock as he realised, during his previous confrontation with Lu Yan, Lu Yan wasn’t even using his full strength.
Lu Yan held the advantage, launching an unrestrained attack against Wu Hao.
He went all out from the very beginning, intending to kill Wu Hao with the force of a thunderbolt.
However, at this moment, a few more arrows flew down from the sky, once again aimed at Lu Yan’s vital points.
It was that young man again, having avoided Lu Yan’s counterattack, shooting out three consecutive arrows, each more powerful than the previous.
"An archer, how annoying."
Fury surged in Lu Yan’s heart.
Without a question, archery has the strongest offensive capabilities among all Martial Arts. Given the young man’s strength, his full strength attack posed a significant threat, which was something Lu Yan couldn’t ignore.
The constant annoyance from the archer made it challenging for him to concentrate his full strength to kill Wu Hao.
"I need to deal with that archer first."
Lu Yan moved, blocking the three arrows, exchanged another move with Wu Hao, and then soared up into the sky towards the young man.
While Lu Yan was engaged with Wu Hao, the other nine men attacked Shen Yinuo simultaneously.
Among them, seven elders, all clad in black battle armor, looked identical. Simultaneously, the armors adorned by these seven men, were etched with thick layers of Wish Patterns.
Using this kind of armor as a medium, their auras seemed to be interconnected, their auras and True Vigor linked together, forming one entity. They manifested a giant figure in front of them, ten meters tall and with wide leaping steps, it launched a punch at the Great Sun Melting Furnace.
Buzz!
The Great Sun Melting Furnace shook violently, seemingly unable to resist, and was knocked backward.
"Joint Striking Method."
Shen Yinuo’s face turned grim.
At the same time, two other young men attacked Shen Yinuo from both sides.
With the Great Sun God Fist, Shen Yinuo repelled the two young men. She was about to finish one of them off when the giant figure attacked again, its fist aiming for her.
Boom!
Shen Yinuo punched back, vigor overflowing. She retreated slightly, while the giant figure staggered back as well.
Considering Shen Yinuo’s ability, she was only able to break even with the giant figure.
"The Joint Striking Method is indeed powerful."
After a round of exchange, Shen Yinuo roughly got the measure of her opponents.
The two young men, undoubtedly, were both top-notch geniuses, possessing the King’s True Body with True Body Seventh Refinement Cultivation Level.
While the seven older men also had True Body Seventh Refinement Cultivation Level, they should all be of the Upper True Body.
What was truly terrifying was the Joint Striking Method unleashed by the seven Upper True Bodies using their armors as a medium.
This Joint Striking Method was rare even among top feudal princes, demonstrating a unique usage of Wish Patterns.
This made the combined power of the seven Upper True Bodies far surpass the two genius cultivators of the King’s True Body, enough to contend with Shen Yinuo. Adding the two young men, Shen Yinuo was slightly at a disadvantage.
She summoned back the Great Sun Melting Furnace, mainly for defense, intensely fighting the nine experts. In a short time, no winner emerged.
Lu Yan soared up into the sky, and the young man who shot arrows made a hasty retreat.
If they fought head-on and even Wu Hao wasn’t his match, he certainly didn’t dare to confront him.
"Want to run?"
Lu Yan’s eyes grew cold, he displayed the Star Leg, his foot stepping on thin air, his speed suddenly increased, and he rapidly approached the youth.
The youth was terrified and retreated frantically, but in the next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his ankle, which Lu Yan had grabbed.
"You sneak attcker, get lost," he growled.
With a forceful swing of his arm, Lu Yan flung the youth away like a shooting star, crashing him into a nearby mountain peak.
Boom!
The mountain collapsed, boulders rolled down, and the youth was buried under the rubble.
With this strike, even if the opponent survived, he was severely injured.
Continuing to use the Star Leg, he treaded in the air and lunged down, and made consecutive claw attacks. The sound of dragons echoed, and an invisible dragon-shaped energy engulfed Wu Hao.
Wu Hao’s face tightened as he pushed the Martial God’s Secret to the extreme, and his muscles bulged. His palms turned Xuan iron color and launched a thunderous attack.
However, it was useless. After a few clashes, Wu Hao retreated continuously, and his hands twisted and contorted, breaking his bones.
Puff!
Lu Yan’s claw landed on Wu Hao’s chest, breaking his armor and piercing his flesh.
Wu Hao roared, and a ray of light rushed from his forehead towards Lu Yan’s.
Feeling the danger, Lu Yan had to give up continuing to attack Wu Hao, and quickly retreated, launching a series of attacks on the incoming light ray.
Boom!
With a dull roar, the light ray was repelled by Lu Yan, but Lu Yan also felt his fingers stinging as if he was striking against a mountain.
Only then did Lu Yan get a clear look at what the ray of light was exactly.
It was a golden metal stele, rapidly expanding to a height of three meters, floating above Wu Hao’s head.
"A Spiritual Treasure."
A thought arose in Lu Yan’s mind.
This must be a Spiritual Treasure. It does not belong to Wu Hao. It must be given to him by a Primordial Spirit Expert of the Shengwu Sect to protect his life.
Wu Hao held his hands out, continually infusing True Vigor into the metal stele.
The stele trembled slightly, releasing dazzling light.
However, Wu Hao did not use the stele to initiate an attack but cautiously watched Lu Yan, ready to defend.
He had really been frightened by Lu Yan’s previous two moves.
"Hmph, if you think that a Spiritual Treasure will protect you, I will break it today."
With a cold snort, Lu Yan’s True Vigor circulated throughout his body as a war knife appeared in his hand—it was the Five-Colored Battle Knife he acquired from the treasure trove of the Dagu Dynasty in Xuan Zhou.
After obtaining the Five-Colored Battle Knife, Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo had conducted many studies but gained nothing, and could not control it, nor could they unleash the power it should possess.
However, there was no doubt about the material of this war knife—it was invincible, incredibly sharp, and could slash through iron like it was mud.
Wielding the Five-Colored Battle Knife, he swung a blow at Wu Hao.
Wu Hao waved his hands, and the metal stele was already standing in front of him.
Dang!
The Five-Colored Battle Knife slashed onto the metal stele, causing a violent explosion. Under the impact, cracks appeared on the ground around them.
The metal stele shook violently and retreated, colliding with Wu Hao. Wu Hao pushed with both hands and was able to stop the stele.
Swish!
Lu Yan sprinted, in a flash, he was behind Wu Hao and slashed at Wu Hao’s neck.
However, the metal stele followed closely and was in front of Wu Hao again, blocking Lu Yan’s attack.
Dang Dang Dang...
Lu Yan used his footwork and swung his knife around Wu Hao, in just a few breaths, he launched dozens of attacks.
But the metal stele moved as fast as lightning, each time accurately blocking Lu Yan’s path, and withstood all of Lu Yan’s attacks.
Although Wu Hao also suffered from the impact, with his cultivation level, such an impact was nothing, and he easily blocked it.
"I don’t believe it."
Lu Yan simply put away the Five-Colored Battle Knife, charged forward, and grabbed the metal stele.
"You..."
Wu Hao’s face changed, and he exerted all his power to control the stele.
The stele trembled violently, trying to break free from Lu Yan’s hand.
"Get away from me."
Lu Yan roared, the True Dragon War Body and True Dragon Nine Strikes were simultaneously displayed to the extreme, and he swung with all his might.
The metal stele was as heavy as a mountain, but it was swung away by Lu Yan and crashed into a mountain peak, which exploded and collapsed under the impact.
Wu Hao was also a decisive person, he seized the opportunity when Lu Yan swung the stele away and launched his strongest attack.
It had to be said that the timing of this strike was perfect. Lu Yan had just forcefully swung away the metal stele, and his strength had yet to recover, leaving him no time to counter-attack.
Bang!
This attack hit Lu Yan squarely in the chest.
Lu Yan was knocked backwards, sliding tens of meters across the ground.
Having gained the upper hand with one move, Wu Hao couldn’t miss such an opportunity. He stomped his feet and charged towards Lu Yan. His palms were like a knife cleaving down at Lu Yan.
But at this time, the roar of a dragon echoed. Lu Yan twisted his body, sprung up from the ground like a dragon. His claws tore through the air and reached for Wu Hao.
Crack!
Wu Hao’s arm was in excruciating pain and he retreated. Lu Yan launched five attacks consecutively. Wu Hao barely blocked four, but on the fifth, was struck in the chest by Lu Yan. His armor shattered, he coughed up blood and retreated.
