SFS Chapter 181 The Leader of the Sea Shark Gang
Chapter 181 The Leader of the Sea Shark Gang
His two companions also instantly unleashed their magical weapons: a blood-red harpoon and a pair of water spikes gleaming with dark light, locking onto Chen Xu with murderous intent.
"The ones who sent you on your way." Chen Xu's voice was calm and even, as if stating a fact.
"Arrogant! A mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator dares to spout such nonsense! Kill him!"
The scarred-faced cultivator grinned maliciously and took the lead in activating the blood-red harpoon, which transformed into a dazzling blood rainbow and pierced straight into Chen Xu's heart.
The other two also attacked simultaneously, their dark, watery spikes snaking towards Chen Xu's lower body and back. Their coordinated attacks were clearly the result of their experience in murder and robbery.
Instead of retreating, Chen Xu advanced, activating the "Mysterious Water Dragon Awakening Technique," and a layer of condensed mysterious water spiritual light covered his body.
He gripped a fine iron longsword and slashed forward with all his might.
The sounds of metal clashing and energy colliding exploded instantly.
Chen Xu moved like a ghost, weaving and dodging amidst the three's fierce and relentless attacks.
The longsword in his hand precisely parried every attack.
He wasn't going all out; it was more like he was toying with the game while silently counting down the time in his mind.
Five seconds... ten seconds... twelve seconds...
The three Sea Shark Gang cultivators grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.
The gray-haired cultivator in front of him had a somewhat weak aura, even though he had only recently broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
But the strange water-based defense was terrifyingly tough, and the seemingly ordinary sword moves were also ridiculously powerful, causing their blood and qi to churn.
What made them even more uneasy was that the other party seemed to be waiting for something.
"This is a tough one, don't hold back, use a combined attack!" Scarface roared, a ruthless glint in his eyes.
The three people's spiritual power instantly connected, and the blood-red harpoon and the dark water spikes shone brightly.
Their auras subtly merged into one, carrying a heart-palpitating force of restraint and tearing, and struck Chen Xu head-on!
Fourteen seconds... fifteen seconds!
Just then, an indescribable terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Chen Xu's body without warning.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth instantly surged violently, frantically converging towards him to form a massive vortex.
The liquid spiritual energy in his dantian, which was originally as vast as a lake, suddenly underwent a qualitative change at this moment.
As if breaking through some invisible boundary, it instantly transformed into a spinning, illusory image of a Core Formation cultivator, radiating dazzling four-colored light.
Early stage of Core Formation! The core power of the [Ultimate Ascension] rune is perfectly displayed at this moment.
"break!"
Chen Xu uttered a soft rebuke, his voice not loud, yet it contained the overwhelming pressure of a Core Formation cultivator, like a thunderclap exploding deep within the souls of the three.
Instantly, the blood rainbow shattered, and the dark light vanished.
Before the violent energy turbulence could fully spread, it was suppressed by the natural aura emanating from Chen Xu.
"puff!!"
The three scarred cultivators were struck as if by a heavy hammer. The backlash from their magical artifacts, combined with the irresistible mental pressure, caused them to cough up mouthfuls of blood.
Their eyes were filled with horror and disbelief, as if they were witnessing the most absurd sight in the world.
"A Core Formation cultivator?! No! Impossible!!" Scarface struggled to surface, his voice distorted with fear.
"You're clearly in the late Foundation Establishment stage!!"
Chen Xu hovered in mid-air, carefully feeling the surging, boundless power within his body.
It's a powerful feeling of controlling a region, with power moving at will.
The effects of the [Ultimate Ascension] far exceeded expectations.
Not only did it temporarily raise his cultivation level by a small margin, but the 30% damage bonus also directly impacted his current cultivation foundation at the early stage of Core Formation.
This allows his every burst of spiritual energy and every attack to contain destructive power far exceeding that of an ordinary early-stage Core Formation cultivator.
"Nothing is impossible," Chen Xu said indifferently.
With a slight thought, he merely flicked his finger.
A condensed stream of Xuan Shui sword energy shot out with a piercing sound and a speed far beyond the comprehension of the Foundation Establishment stage.
The target was the scarred monk who had just tried to crush the communication talisman.
"No!!" Scarface only managed to let out a desperate roar.
laugh!
The Xuan Shui sword energy pierced precisely between his eyebrows, leaving a small hole that was clear from front to back.
Scarface's pupils instantly lost focus, his body went limp and collapsed, rolling off the rocks and sinking into the sea.
The remaining power of the Xuan Shui even shattered the communication talisman he was trying to crush.
The other two Sea Shark Gang cultivators, witnessing this scene, were terrified and had no will to resist whatsoever.
They scrambled to get on the wrecked shuttles and fled for their lives, scrambling and stumbling.
Chen Xu's cold gaze swept over the two fleeing figures.
He casually raised his hand and flicked his fingers twice in the direction the two men had fled.
call out!call out!
Two streams of Xuan Shui sword energy, still moving with lightning speed, shot out from the sky.
The two cultivators felt a chill run down their spines and couldn't even let out a scream as their protective spiritual light was pierced through like thin paper.
Their bodies stiffened abruptly, and then, along with the fragments of the flying shuttle beneath their feet, they fell helplessly into the surging waves.
Having achieved his experimental objective, Chen Xu withdrew his gaze and continued to savor the mysteries of this temporary Core Formation realm.
As the battle ended, Chen Xu's cultivation level quickly dropped back to the late Foundation Establishment stage.
As the battle ended, Chen Xu's cultivation level quickly dropped back to the late Foundation Establishment stage.
"Next..." Chen Xu's gaze turned to the distant horizon, a slight smile curving his lips.
"It's time to try Qingling..."
With a thought, he summoned Qingling from the Beast Taming Space.
The next moment, Qingling's aloof figure appeared silently on the sea beside Chen Xu.
Her appearance instantly made the temperature of this sea area seem to drop a few degrees.
"Senior brother." Qingling looked at Chen Xu, her eyes lighting up.
Just as Chen Xu was about to speak, his eyebrows suddenly shot up.
A spiritual pressure dozens of times stronger than that of the three Foundation Establishment cultivators before surged in from the distant sea without warning.
"Late stage of Core Formation...?" Chen Xu's pupils contracted slightly as he judged the newcomer's cultivation level.
"Heh heh heh... How dare you! You actually slaughter my Sea Shark Gang disciples!"
A hoarse voice pierced through the raging sea wind and clearly reached Chen Xu and Qing Ling's ears.
A streak of blood-red light tore through the sea and sky at an astonishing speed, and in the blink of an eye, it approached the area above the reefs.
The light dissipated, revealing an exceptionally burly, bald man.
He had dark skin and wore only a vest made of unknown sea monster skin.
His chest and arms were covered with hideous scars and eerie dark red tattoos, resembling a deep-sea shark.
He stood on a grotesque bone boat, exuding a strong stench of blood and a menacing aura.
A pair of fierce eyes, like copper bells, were fixed on Qing Ling. It was none other than Wu Huan, the leader of the Sea Shark Gang, a late-stage Core Formation cultivator known for his ruthlessness and cruelty!
"Heh heh heh... Where did this ignorant little beast come from! Daring to slaughter my Sea Shark Gang's men on my turf?!"
"Late stage of Core Formation..." His gaze swept over Qingling, carrying a hint of apprehension, but more so a fierce intent.
"Your aura is indeed sinister, but trying to play tricks on me will only get you killed!"
