Free Web NovelChapter 909: Chapter 157: Splendid
The Sea Clan would not lightly resort to their true sea master form because, despite its power, the cost of using it was enormous.
Displaying the true form of a sea master even once required a long recovery. Therefore, it was not used unless absolutely necessary.
But faced with such a ferocious human cultivator, they could no longer afford to hold back. If this wasn’t the necessary moment, what was?
In this world, there are thousands of people, thousands of fates, thousands of cruelties, and thousands of bravenesses! freēwēbηovel.c૦m
It wasn’t just the human race that produced warriors. It wasn’t just Jiang Wang who was known for his valor.
Jiang Wang had killed several members of the Sea Clan, but instead of scaring them away, it ignited their ferocity.
The moment the true form of the sea master was revealed, its prowess skyrocketed instantly.
The huge clawed shark’s eyes rapidly spun within a vortex, almost bleeding from the strain, fixating its gaze on Jiang Wang!
Jiang Wang only felt as if countless tiny hands were frantically pulling at him, firmly fixing him in place.
Fire rose from all around him.
The Flame Sparrows screeched, and Eight-Sound Fire burst forth.
Jiang Wang used himself as the center to release an Eight-Sound Fire, to carve out a space for himself to fight.
But that emaciated true form of the sea master merely shook its body, and hundreds of dark bone spurs turned crimson, shooting out like spears, pinning everything around.
Jiang Wang could clearly sense that within this area, all the fire elements were being expelled.
These bone spurs had the power to inhibit elements, and their effects were far stronger than the water-banishing talisman he used!
Thus, the sea of flames was extinguished, thus, the tide of sound was quelled.
Simultaneously, the female Sea Clan with fingers like daggers lightly uttered an abstruse syllable. Bluish vines twisted around her like serpents, swiftly cutting through the Body-Binding Chain, and then she charged at Jiang Wang.
The double-dagger-wielding Sea Clan with a striped face had already swept away Jiang Wang’s unmanageable sword style. With a cross slash of his twin daggers, he aimed straight for Jiang Wang’s vital midsection.
The Sea Clan were exceptionally strong fighters, often battling in teams over the years, with exceptionally coordinated efforts.
Jiang Wang’s response was nearly perfect, having already pushed his combat potential to the limit, leaving no gaps. Yet, through sheer power and coordination, they forcibly created vulnerabilities!
With Jiang Wang unable to move, unable to return his sword for defense, and even unable to burst forth with another Eight-Sound Fire since the fire element had been drained, the Samadhi True Fire too could not last indefinitely. After killing two members of the Sea Clan, he was nearly depleted.
In this instantly formed dire situation, he only had time to consecutively tear open a few charms.
Stone Armor Charm! Golden Body Charm! Ice Cage Charm! Iron Wall Charm!
The six-winged true form of the sea master, incredibly fast, fluttered its six wings, and with eighty movements, it was already lunging toward Jiang Wang; its beak like that of a hawk, yet filled with densely packed fearsome white teeth, bit at Jiang Wang!
Indeed, among the remaining members of the Sea Clan, it was the strongest.
Such a sharp beak, with just one bite.
The Iron Wall broke open, the Ice Cage exploded, the golden light shattered, the Stone Armor crumbled!
Jiang Wang was about to die right there!
Suddenly, there was the sound of singing!
The song went— "Wang, oh Wang, slow your pace, beyond the ends of the earth, there lies another. The seas are stormy, I yearn for your early return home!"
Each word and sound emerged from Jiang Wang’s clothing.
It was Xu Xiangqian’s farewell limerick!
Divine Skills, Embroidery!
Regarding his own divine skills, Xu Gaoe had always been incredibly secretive.
Because some divine skills should not be known to others, just like Jiang Wang’s Astray Path. Therefore, Xu Xiangqian said nothing, and no one asked.
This was a sincere prayer, possessing the power of fantasies becoming reality.
Yet it could not be entirely equated to prayer divine skills. The vast majority of prayer divine skills involve the response of some powerful entity. Some others deal with cause and effect.
Embroidery was not about cause and effect, embroidery was about preparing early for a certain result.
With his mouth, he uttered a splendid verse, but every word and phrase was as earnest as weaving embroidery.
"The seas are stormy, I yearn for your early return home!" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
That was Xu Xiangqian’s heartfelt wish for Jiang Wang, the "embroidery" he wove for him.
To ensure this result became reality, he would, during the process, pay different prices depending on the various difficulties.
And this time, it blocked a nearly fatal blow for Jiang Wang!
On the End of the World Platform, how could Xu Xiangqian not have given a gift? Although he was embarrassed by his empty pockets, he had offered his most sincere friendship!
The six-winged true form of the sea master, having bitten through several layers of protective charms and about to strike Jiang Wang, bit into nothing!
Jiang Wang tapped his foot, a flash of blue clouds appeared and dispersed beneath him, escaping the entangling strikes, and he came face to face with the female Sea Clan resembling a dagger.
He gripped the Longsword as if it were a dagger and thrust it directly forward!
The green vines entangling the body of the Female Sea Clan member intertwined like armor, blocking the blade.
But Jiang Wang’s left hand pressed directly onto the vine armor.
The ashen light flowed around his hand, Decayed Wood Decision!
Though only a medium-grade Decayed Wood Decision, it corroded and penetrated the vine armor instantly by capitalizing on its innate opposing force.
Longing slid in smoothly without any hindrance.
With a push of his left hand, the Female Sea Clan member, whose fingertips resembled daggers, was already collapsing powerlessly backward.
In that instant, the burst of Sword Qi from Longing had shredded all her internal organs, making her deader than dead.
All this may sound slow in description, but it all happened in the blink of an eye.
It appeared as if Jiang Wang had charged forward, gripped his sword like a dagger, and stabbed her to death with a single thrust!
As Jiang Wang withdrew his sword, he looked emotionlessly at the remaining Sea Clan members.
The frost light flowed within the second Inner Mansion, Deviant Path Technique!
His target was the Sea Clan member with a head like an eagle’s, boasting eighty feet and six wings on his spine.
When the strongest of the battle team, Yu Wangu, was instantly killed, was he afraid? Of course. But he would not flee.
When Yu Runqiu died in the next moment, was he tense? Of course he was, but he still dared to fight on.
When the two comrades in the front fell dead in an encounter, wouldn’t he be panicked? But he was also filled with anger and hatred, and wished to bravely seek revenge.
When an organized attack from his allies was about to kill that detestable Human Race cultivator but ultimately failed,
He couldn’t deny that he was indeed panicking uncontrollably.
The next moment, another comrade was killed, almost without any resistance!
He saw with his own eyes, his comrades falling one by one, seemingly without causing the enemy any trouble.
That Human Race cultivator, didn’t resemble an ordinary master of God’s Inner Mansion but seemed like a legendary powerhouse from Tianfu. He killed those formidable comrades he knew so well as if he were slaughtering chickens — swiftly and neatly.
At that moment, fear... finally reached a critical point.
He let out an inexplicable roar, turned around, wings flapping, feet moving, and disappeared without a trace.
He ran!
Astray Path influenced his decision at that moment!
As the second strongest in the battle team next to Yu Wangu, his flight directly shattered their morale.
The two sea lords, showing their true forms as giant clawed sharks and bone-spiked giant fish, one closed its eyes while the other abandoned its spikes altogether and fled in opposite directions, each in a panic.
The handsome Sea Clan with stripes across his face also immediately sheathed his sword at his side and took to swift flight.
Snap!
A dull, lightless rope, hidden somehow before him, captured him perfectly within its coils as he panicked!
"Save me! Save me!" he screamed in terror.
But this scene only intensified the fear of those fleeing, almost desperately speeding them up. That terrifying Human Race cultivator seemed utterly determined not to spare any of them!
"Huff, huff."
Jiang Wang took deep breaths, allowing his exhausted body to draw a slight power from the breaths.
He slowly flew to the last remaining Sea Clan member at the scene.
"Don’t... don’t..." this Sea Clan member desperately shouted, "Let’s negotiate, we can negotiate, I’ll ransom myself..."
Jiang Wang didn’t listen to what he was saying, holding the Longsword with both hands, he made a horizontal cut from left to right!
"Ah!" the Sea Clan member screamed, but did not die.
Because Longing only cut halfway through his neck.
Not because his neck was particularly tough, nor because Longing wasn’t sharp enough.
It was because Jiang Wang, hadn’t much strength left.
That battle had drained him of everything, all his cunning, methods, and tools, not sparing even a bit.
"Huff..."
Jiang Wang took a long breath.
A flash of cold light from the thumb ring on his big thumb, and Longing finally made a clean sweep to the finish.
The head with Sea Clan features, still handsome, wobbled on the neck before silently rolling off.
