Chapter 796  : Galaxy Descends Nine Heavens

A Mountain Sea Realm beginner died instantly with one arrow.

Even though Gu Yande was fully armed and raised his defense to the utmost as soon as he sensed something wrong, it was still futile.

In the face of absolute power, many things are as fragile as paper.

Just as Chen Fei had previously estimated, even a Fourth-Tier beginner monster was brought to the brink of death by a single arrow. Martial artists, whose self-healing and defense were obviously weaker, couldn’t even withstand a single arrow.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. At this moment, Xiao Qiping and the other three were a little over a mile away from Chen Fei.

This distance was not much, easily bridged in a few steps, but for an archer, this distance meant they could still continue to attack.

Thinking of this, Liao Zhongqing and Huo Yuyin, both at the Mountain Sea Realm early-stage, couldn’t help but shiver. Their strength was comparable to Gu Yande’s.

If they were to really engage in combat, Gu Yande’s tactics might be even more abundant, and there was a good chance they would lose.

And now, if Gu Yande couldn’t even block a single arrow attack, what could they use to defend themselves?

Suddenly, a sense of deathly silence enveloped Liao Zhongqing’s soul, as if someone were holding a sword to his eyeballs at that very moment.

In the next moment, that sword would pierce directly into his head.

Since breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm, Liao Zhongqing hadn’t felt this icy chill for many years.

“Save me!”

Liao Zhongqing, thinking of Gu Yande’s fate just now, screamed in terror. Then, the blade in his hand gleamed with dazzling brilliance, completely obscuring his figure.

“Bang!”

The bowstring vibrated through the air, emitting a dull sound. But before the sound reached, an arrow had already arrived in front of Liao Zhongqing.

Xiao Qiping left behind a trail of afterimages in place, his real body standing in front of Liao Zhongqing, the Night Demon Blade in his hand transforming into an abyss, devouring the arrow.

Jing Chaodong dashed towards Chen Fei at the fastest speed.

With such powerful archery, they could only engage in close combat at this moment. Otherwise, if they let the opponent shoot freely, even Jing Chaodong wouldn’t be able to withstand the power displayed by the arrow just now.

“Boom!”

An explosion resounded from behind, accompanied by a muffled grunt from Xiao Qiping.

Jing Chaodong instinctively glanced back and saw that after Xiao Qiping took an arrow, his whole body involuntarily took several steps back.

With each step on the ground, a dull sound echoed, forming a deep pit.

Giant cracks extended in all directions from the edges of the deep pits.

Xiao Qiping’s right arm trembled slightly, and as he looked towards Chen Fei in the distance, his gaze carried a hint of horror.

With such forceful attacks, it’s no wonder Gu Yande was obliterated by a single arrow. If Xiao Qiping hadn’t responded with all his strength, he would have been injured by that arrow just now.

Even without being injured, Xiao Qiping’s body felt slightly stiff at the moment.

The advantage of such terrifying archery skills within this Black Divine Barrier was immense.

Xiao Qiping felt some regret in his heart, but regrets were useless now. Since they were already adversaries, the only option was to completely snuff out the opponent here and eliminate any future threats!

Chen Fei, seeing Xiao Qiping block the arrow with a single blade, wasn’t particularly surprised.

The Shadow Lock Bow technique was just an ordinary inheritance. It’s just that Chen Fei, currently in the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm and possessing tremendous strength, greatly enhanced the power of the arrows.

The Shadow Lock Bow was nowamiddle-grade spiritual treasure. If it were elevated to the level of a high-grade spiritual treasure, perhaps it could perfectly showcase Chen Fei’s formidable strength.

By then, the power of that single arrow would reach a terrifying level.

However, with Chen Fei’s current wealth, he couldn’t afford the expenditure involved in upgrading the spiritual treasure to a high-grade one.

Having those elemental stones to buy cultivation pills or spiritual materials for cultivation would be a better choice.

Chen Fei adjusted the Shadow Lock Bow and aimed it at the charging Jing Chaodong.

As Jing Chaodong was locked on by Chen Fei, a chill involuntarily rose in his heart.

The closer the distance, the stronger the arrow’s power, and at such proximity, there was almost no possibility of evasion.

“Bang!”

Before the sound even arrived, the arrow was already in front. Jing Chaodong roared, and the water-source blade in his hand instantly slashed out.

Like a surging river appearing around Jing Chaodong, everything that came before him slowed down, thanks to the power of the water source.

As the arrow approached within five steps of Jing Chaodong, its speed also slowed down involuntarily.

But immediately, the explosive force contained in the arrow pierced straight through the water source in front of Jing Chaodong. The arrow’s speed recovered instantly and arrived at Jing Chaodong’s face in an instant.

“Boom!”

Jing Chaodong’s forward momentum suddenly halted, then, like Xiao Qiping earlier, he involuntarily took several steps back before dissipating the force of the arrow.

Jing Chaodong squinted at Chen Fei, realizing only when truly facing the attack how terrifying these arrows of such force were.

But like Xiao Qiping, Jing Chaodong’s resolve to kill Chen Fei only grew stronger. Because someone like him as an enemy was too frightening; he had to be eliminated for peace of mind.

As Chen Fei attacked Jing Chaodong, Xiao Qiping and the other two seized the opportunity to charge forward.

Chen Fei remained expressionless, locking onto Jing Chaodong with the Shadow Lock Bow and releasing another arrow.

With a dull sound, after forcing Jing Chaodong back a distance, Chen Fei aimed the Shadow Lock Bow at Xiao Qiping and the others.

Liao Zhongqing and Huo Yuyin were terrified, quickly hiding behind Xiao Qiping. These arrows were simply outrageous, causing injury upon impact and death upon contact, completely unreasonable.

Liao Zhongqing and Huo Yuyin dared not show themselves in front of Chen Fei’s arrows at all, relying on Xiao Qiping to shield them.

Xiao Qiping’s expression turned solemn, his eyes turning pitch black as he directly began to burn his soul.

In an instant, Xiao Qiping’s perception heightened, and his combat power began to soar.

Xiao Qiping raised his head, watching as Chen Fei drew the bowstring and fired another arrow.

The arrow pierced through the black mist, as if tearing through the space it passed, countless ripples spreading out in front of the arrowhead.

In minute detail, Xiao Qiping could better discern the terror of Chen Fei’s arrows. Yet, in this scrutiny, Xiao Qiping also noticed the weakness of these arrows.

While not exactly a flaw, every technique had its strong and weak points. The more sophisticated the technique, the fewer weaknesses it had.

Xiao Qiping drew his blade and slashed the arrow that had flown before him.

The Night Demon Blade was shaken by a tremendous force, flipping into the air, but this time, Xiao Qiping did not retreat.

If it were a one-on-one situation, Xiao Qiping would already be considering escape. Despite burning his soul, he was still halted in place, unable to close the distance, which would inevitably make him an easy target.

But now, with Jing Chaodong present, they had two mid-stage Mountain Sea Realm practitioners. With Chen Fei’s divided attention, the advantage was on their side!

Sure enough, as Chen Fei attacked Xiao Qiping, Jing Chaodong seized the opportunity to ignite his own soul, then took several steps forward, closing the distance to Chen Fei in less than a mile.

Xiao Qiping lifted the Night Demon Blade, roaring angrily as his figure turned into a black streak, madly charging towards Chen Fei.

Regardless of whom Chen Fei chose to attack next, the other could continue to advance.

Chen Fei stood on the mountain slope, watching Xiao Qiping and his group. Arrows continued to fly out from his hand, accompanied by incessant explosions.

“Ah!”

Liao Zhongqing suddenly screamed in agony, his entire right arm instantly exploding into a mist of blood, even his right shoulder disappearing without a trace, and the weapon in his hand dropping to the ground.

Arrows weren’t just straightforward projectiles. After a long standoff, even Xiao Qiping had moments of interception delay. Moreover, in Xiao Qiping’s mind, the most important thing at the moment was to reach Chen Fei.

Currently, Xiao Qiping was in a state of burning his soul. With every passing moment, his soul would be depleted, and if too much time passed, even the Mountain Sea Realm would be rendered useless.

Huo Yuyin shuddered beside him. She was tempted to abandon Liao Zhongqing, but in such a battle, every bit of strength was precious.

At this moment, Liao Zhongqing hadn’t completely lost his combat power. As long as Xiao Qiping and Jing Chaodong could get close, he and Liao Zhongqing could assist.

Realizing this, Huo Yuyin grabbed Liao Zhongqing and pulled him in front of her, closely following behind Xiao Qiping.

The continuous collision of arrows and blades echoed without end. Jing Chaodong was now only tens of steps away from Chen Fei, completely entering the optimal distance for his attack.

“Unravel!”

Jing Chaodong’s eyes gleamed coldly as he manipulated the seals with his left hand hidden in his sleeve. Suddenly, he disappeared from his original position and reappeared at Chen Fei’s side.

The Water Source Heaven Unraveling Technique was the main cultivation method Jing Chaodong practiced. Legend has it that this technique was created tens of thousands of years ago by a top inheritance from a now-extinct sect.

When this inheritance was cultivated to its peak, anywhere with water could directly enhance the power of the practitioner’s techniques.

Although there was no water here, the air contained moisture.

Jing Chaodong instantly moved dozens of steps, directly condensing a water source body beside Chen Fei, swapping places with his real body.

Within the Black Divine Barrier, where the suppression of combat power was severe, if it were outside, Jing Chaodong could teleport more than thirty miles using this method.

Although it couldn’t be used continuously, it was enough to unleash unexpected effects in battle.

“Yes!”

Seeing Jing Chaodong finally closing in, Xiao Qiping’s eyes lit up, and the expressions on Liao Zhongqing and Huo Yuyin’s faces couldn’t help but relax slightly.

Practitioners who used bows and arrows as their weapons generally possessed impressive close combat abilities.

However, this close combat was mostly just a precautionary measure.

It wasn’t weak, but it was generally weaker than archery.

After all, a person’s energy is limited, even in the Mountain Sea Realm.

If one had the talent, they could cultivate an inheritance to its peak, which undoubtedly required deep study, as it was the best and easiest way to improve one’s realm and combat power.

Learning a little of this and a little of that wouldn’t get ordinary martial artists very far, and the same applied to those in the Mountain Sea Realm.

“Die!”

Jing Chaodong wielded the water-source blade, and behind him appeared the phenomenon of the Galaxy Descends Nine Heavens. In the next moment, the blade was already swinging towards Chen Fei’s neck.

Chen Fei lifted his eyelids slightly, and the Shadow Lock Bow slipped from his hand, flying automatically towards his back.

“Hiss!”

Amidst the sound of thunder, the Qianyuan Sword unsheathed, and Chen Fei slashed towards Jing Chaodong with a sword.
