Chapter 733 - 6: The Power of a Single Slash (Part 2)
A trail of bright red blood was left behind, already gasped to death!
The faces of everyone present changed!
Second Grade Innate Realm Celestial Concealment was actually collided to death?
Who is the visitor, and what is their cultivation?
Ah Li looked at the figure at the door that was incredibly familiar to her, the emptiness and indifference in her eyes gradually dissipated, a slight mist rising.
"I heard someone bullied you."
Chen Tang grinned and said, "I’ve come to back you up."
"It’s him, Chen Tang!"
Someone in the crowd recognized Chen Tang and exclaimed in surprise.
After all, Chen Tang once stirred up a month-long bloody storm in Qianzhu City, to the point where no one dared to assassinate him.
"Is it you?"
The Shadow Tower Master squinted slightly and said, "You dare come back?"
As he spoke, he gestured to his followers to quickly relay the news to Shadow Castle.
That’s the Hidden Sect’s cultivation residence.
He had just finished gesturing when he glimpsed a flash of sword light.
Too fast!
In his entire cultivation, he had never seen such a fast sword.
Puff!
A mist of blood erupted.
The Shadow Tower Master’s head flew high.
The remaining two Tower Masters were shocked, quickly deploying the Five Elements Escape Technique, using the surrounding terrain and light, instantly concealing their tracks, disappearing without a trace.
"Trivial trickery."
Chen Tang chuckled lightly and waved his hand.
The sword light arose again!
Puff puff!
Two streams of blood suddenly erupted.
In the next moment, where there was nothing, two bloody heads rolled out, precisely the corpses of Fan Meng and Nianyun Tower Masters!
If Chen Tang’s Divine Soul had not healed, these Five Elements Escape Techniques might have confused his vision.
But now, his Divine Soul was powerful, comparable to a Grandmaster of Transformation Realm.
Several Celestial Concealment’s Stealth Techniques could not fool him!
"Let’s go."
Chen Tang stepped forward, held Ah Li’s wrist, and left the Shadow Tower.
Ah Li followed Chen Tang very obediently.
At this moment, she felt an unprecedented peace of mind.
As long as she stayed by Chen Tang’s side, she no longer needed to worry about anything.
This commotion undoubtedly alarmed many hermits in Shadow City.
For a moment, there were sounds of clothing cutting through the air from all directions.
Silhouettes dashed across rooftops and alleys, swarming towards this place.
As Chen Tang and Ah Li stepped out of the Shadow Tower, many hermits had already gathered around.
Each gaze was icy, staring at Chen Tang, ready to move, eager to act.
Ah Li suddenly felt a chill, a shiver ran through her, she returned to her senses, and reminded, "Be careful, the city is full of alleys, intricate and complex, hiding many corners, each is a favorable terrain for assassination."
"Although I’ve been to Shadow City a few times, every time I walk in it, I must be extremely cautious."
"No matter."
Chen Tang smiled slightly, looked around at the increasingly numerous hermits, and said, "Won’t you let us pass?"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
From within the crowd, projectiles of various kinds and colors were shot, dense and overwhelming, coming from all directions!
Chen Tang snorted coldly, suddenly releasing a purplish-gold divine light from within!
This divine light also enveloped Ah Li.
Hundreds of projectiles struck but only barely touched the purplish-gold divine radiance and quickly fell down, unable to harm Chen Tang and Ah Li at all.
Don’t mention the projectiles released by these hermits. Even the Nascent Soul True Monarch’s Flying Sword finds it difficult to penetrate Chen Tang’s Body Radiance!
Seeing the surrounding formation, Ah Li still felt some unease.
After all, this is the old lair of Hermit Continent.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the strongest hermits of the Dongyi Race are all in this city.
More and more hermits were gathering, seemingly thousands and thousands!
The Four Great Elders of Wind, Fire, Mountain, and Forest might even be hiding among the crowd!
While Ah Li was indulging in wild thoughts, Chen Tang struck again.
He held the Eternal at his waist, spun around, and unleashed the Sweeping the Six Directions sword skill.
Slash!
A twenty-zhang purplish-gold sword aura surged from the blade of Eternal, tearing through the crowd instantly!
In the next moment, this terrifying sword aura rotated and swept around Chen Tang.
The blood mist spreads.
In an instant, within a radius of twenty yards, all the hermits were cut in half by Chen Tang with one slash!
Rumble!
The buildings within twenty yards were also cut off by Chen Tang’s slash, unable to withstand it, and collapsed with a crash.
With just one slash, the area within twenty yards became a wasteland!
This is the power of Sweeping the Six Directions!
The hermits standing in the distance, lucky to have escaped disaster, saw this scene, their faces turning pale with fright, their souls nearly leaving their bodies.
The power of that slash was terrifying to such an extent!
Normally, after stepping into First Grade, a Grandmaster can release martial arts techniques like sword aura or blade aura.
However, even a Peak Grandmaster can release sword or blade aura that is no longer than ten yards.
Chen Tang refined both body and qi, and in the Innate Realm, he had already cultivated sword aura.
After his Divine Soul recovered and he stepped into Grandmaster, his Innate True Qi became even stronger.
Even without merging with qi and blood, he could unleash blade aura.
If he further merges with qi and blood, the released purple-gold blade aura can reach a terrifying range of twenty yards!
With this one slash, it was almost a sweeping assault against thousands of troops!
Even someone with Ah Li’s temperament was left stunned.
She had only cultivated techniques of assassination and stealth, never having witnessed such martial arts.
Even Ming Yue Wanderer, being a Grandmaster, had not cultivated to this extent.
No matter the complex terrain, dark corners, or narrow alleys, with one slash, everything was leveled!
Besides those hermits exposed outside, many who were hiding in the dark or in corners didn’t even know what happened before they died on the spot!
"Let’s go."
Chen Tang, holding Ah Li’s hand, headed towards Shadow Castle.
Rustle!
Accompanied by a flurry of chaotic footsteps, the originally dense group of hermits suddenly opened a path, hurriedly avoiding, staying at least twenty yards away.
-----------------
Shadow Castle.
Inside the council hall.
The Four Great Elders—Feng, Huo, Shan, Lin—sat on both sides of the hall. Ming Yue Wanderer, face pale, knelt in the center, looking up ahead.
The central position above was shrouded in shadows, seemingly empty.
But Ming Yue Wanderer kept looking there.
Ming Yue Wanderer said in a deep voice, "Spare the mother and child, and I’ll give you my life."
"Hehe."
A strange light laugh came from the empty seat above, "What use do I have for your life?"
"I want to keep you together, let you lose your minds, allow Shangguan to birth this child. I intend to groom this child into the most formidable hermit of the Dongyi Race!"
"From a young age, I will instill hatred in this child, waiting for the day your child will personally kill you, as this is my punishment for you!"
The voice from the empty seat was elusive, yet every word was extremely venomous.
Ming Yue Wanderer’s face was grim, body slightly trembling.
He dared not imagine the torment this child would endure in the hands of the Hidden Sect.
"Report—"
An urgent voice came from outside.
The Hidden Sect furrowed his brows.
He was pressuring Ming Yue Wanderer, about to break this person’s psyche, but was interrupted and felt displeased.
"What is it?"
The Hidden Sect asked slowly.
Unless it was a matter significant enough to require his intervention, that attendant was as good as dead!
"Chen Tang is coming!"
The attendant said breathlessly, "Originally, the four towers’ masters had Ghost Concealment trapped in the Shadow Tower, ready to capture it. But Chen Tang suddenly appeared, killing the four masters with just a few strikes!"
"Shadow Tower Master, before dying, ordered me to report without delay."
"Such a minor issue..."
The Hidden Sect’s voice carried a hint of murderous intent.
The next moment, the attendant’s body suddenly split from the middle, blood and viscera spilling everywhere, dying instantly!
No one saw how the Hidden Sect made the move.
Even the four elders—Feng, Huo, Shan, Lin—in the hall didn’t notice.
"Report—"
Just then, another voice came from outside, more anxious than before.
"Again?"
The Hidden Sect grew a bit impatient.
Inside the hall, the murderous aura surged!
"What’s happening?"
Elder Feng slightly frowned, stood up, and asked loudly.
