novelFierce Battle with the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group
| ← Ch.1783 | Ch.1785 → |
The wolf pack raged. The pirates' auras spread out and encased the entire sky, the murderous intent firmly locking down on Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and looked. Saber lights and sword images layered over each other filled his eyes. The mysterious phenomena of the various Martial Techniques appeared very chaotic.
However, in reality, they were all very orderly.
The ten thousand-odd crew members of the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group divided into ten groups. Each group contained about a hundred people.
One hundred happened to be the limit of the number of attacks that could target a single body. Any more would just be a waste.
Each round of attacks only had one hundred attacks—the most that could reach Xiao Chen.
This was because all the targetable locations on Xiao Chen's body were already covered. Any more would not have a target to attack.
Adding any more attacks would only mess up the rhythm, throwing the entire wolf pack into chaos.
Xiao Chen did not have much time to think. The attacks of the first hundred people arrived in the blink of an eye.
To onlookers, boundless waves seemed to swallow Xiao Chen, his figure entirely occluded.
The endless clangor of weapons clashing resounded from the chaotic mysterious phenomena of the many Martial Techniques.
A flash of saber light looked like the most dazzling star in a sky full of stars.
That saber light was exceptionally eye-catching amidst the various mysterious phenomena.
That saber light flashed, so quick that only afterimages could be seen.
As the afterimages flickered by the bladesman's face, they revealed cold and stern features with black and white hair fluttering in the wind.
Then, the saber light vanished in a flash. There was simply not enough time for a careful look.
"It's that white-clad bladesman!"
"He blocked the first round of attacks. What a quick saber strike!"
Everyone was startled into paling. Then, they suddenly discovered that Xiao Chen, who appeared to have drowned in the flood of attacks, had not collapsed. Instead, he resiliently blocked all the attacks, hacking apart every single Martial Technique that flew at him.
Brandishing the saber in his hand, that bladesman raised a watertight screen of sabers at lightning speed.
The pirates of the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group work in groups of hundreds. After the first wave, the next wave would soon arrive.
Soon, ten waves of attacks passed.
Strong winds blew in every direction; the skies and the clouds changed color. Shock waves surged out.
Clouds churned above the tall pavilion as a strong wind stirred.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared amidst the strong winds, and saber lights scintillated endlessly.
The white-clad Xiao Chen held up the Tyrant Saber in the center of the storm. His defense was so tight that even wind and water could not penetrate it.
No matter how furiously this wolf pack howled, shouted, or unleashed killing Qi, Xiao Chen remained on the tall pavilion without budging, appearing very relaxed. The wind could not blow him over, and the rain did not fluster him.
The expression of Wolf King Jiang Hengchuan, who was watching from a distance, slowly changed from the initial disdain to gravity.
"This youth has already gone very far with his saber skills, much further than the crewmembers of the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group. Such an encirclement is not much of a threat to him at all, " a captain with rather sharp eyes among the guests said.
"However, there are still the eight generals under the Wolf King. Those are all existences that rival early-stage Star Venerates!"
"That's right. Even if such an encirclement cannot injure this white-clad bladesman, he will still have enormous difficulty breaking out of this situation."
"In the end, this is still too much for this youth, " someone sighed softly. However, the situation before them was truly surprising.
Even an early-stage Star Venerate would face miserable defeat when besieged by one thousand Wolf Smoke Pirate Group crewmembers.
However, not only did Xiao Chen defend himself, but his defense was also so tight that he was utterly unscathed.
This was simply shocking, startling, and awe-inspiring.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Just at this moment, eight strong auras appeared in the courtyard, flying towards the Wolf King Jiang Hengchuan.
"The Wolf King's eight generals are here!"
"The show is over. This youth will definitely die."
The ones who came were the eight generals, who had been guarding the ships outside the Pirate Hall.
Someone would always be left to guard the pirate ships to prevent unexpected incidents. When these eight learned that something happened at the birthday banquet, they did not act rashly.
Incredibly, the commotion escalated. Left without a choice, the Wolf King called over all his eight generals.
"Greetings, Captain!" The eight landed behind the Wolf King and greeted him respectfully.
"What exactly happened that you have to mobilize even us?"
Jiang Hengchuan did not say anything. He merely extended his hand and pointed at the top of the pavilion. The eight generals immediately showed startled expressions, stunned on the spot.
"This..."
The Wolf Smoke Pirate Group crewmembers had turned out in full force. To think that there was someone in the Grave Sea that they could not take down.
Where exactly did this youth come from?
"Captain, don't worry. We will go and kill this fellow now."
The eight generals exchanged looks. Not wanting to let this commotion continue, they prepared to attack together to kill Xiao Chen and instantly resolve this problem, allowing the birthday banquet to resume.
However, while this line of thought was good...
Atop the tall pavilion, Xiao Chen sensed the arrival of the eight generals. He slightly raised his eyebrows. They finally arrived.
From the information that Ding Yuan provided, Xiao Chen already knew about these eight people. He also knew that they posed the greatest danger to him.
How could Xiao Chen not be prepared?
As Xiao Chen looked at the one hundred pirates charging at him in yet another round of attacks, he suddenly shifted his saber and stood upright on the tall pavilion.
He is insane!
When the many guests below saw this, they were stunned. This was simply too crazy.
Xiao Chen held two fingers on his right hand together and tapped his forehead. His will of soul spread out and merged with the saber intent around.
In the next moment, a saber hum rang out in the surroundings of the tall pavilion.
The sound was not loud, but it clearly reached the depths of everyone's soul as if a powerful treasure saber was humming in everyone's mind.
"That's impossible..."
Such a scene immediately drew exclamations from many Star Venerates. Xiao Chen was just a Major Primal Core Venerate, yet he could merge his saber intent and will of soul.
This was a technique that many early-stage Star Venerate experts failed to grasp.
Xiao Chen was just a peak Major Primal Core existence. How did he do it?
However, facts were facts. It did indeed happen.
"Whoosh!"
Then, Xiao Chen suddenly swiped down with the two fingers he tapped his forehead with. The boundless saber intent and the will of soul gathered into one resplendent saber light.
Only the colors black and white remained in the world, but that saber light still appeared resplendent and dazzling and very moving.
Bearing the brunt of the force, the one hundred attacking Wolf Smoke Pirate Group crewmembers got bisected at the waist.
The saber light did not stop, continuing to radiate. It slowly vanished only after killing a total of five hundred pirates.
The remaining pirates were long startled pallid as they fled.
If these pirates did not flee, only death awaited them.
When the saber light vanished, color returned to the world. A cool and steady breeze blew around the tall pavilion.
The various mysterious phenomena and the shock waves all disappeared. The previously noisy, surflike spectacle immediately turned quiet.
Only the white-clad bladesman remained, holding his saber and standing on the tall pavilion, like before.
The eight generals that came to help were all stupefied.
Such a scene was entirely beyond their expectations.
Earlier, the eight generals were still thinking of making use of lightning-quick attacks to kill Xiao Chen while he was occupied by the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group crew.
The generals had already discussed various plans with each other through voice projections.
However, just one saber strike from Xiao Chen—one saber light—disrupted all their plans.
He simply caught everyone off guard, stupefying them and putting them in a daze.
When the guests below saw this scene, they all had similar expressions. Their mouths gaped wide in wordless shock.
Only Jiang Hengchuan burst out angrily, "Why are you still not attacking?! How long are you going to wait? All of you are as strong as Star Venerates. With the eight of you working together, no matter how he resists, he will die!"
These words immediately jolted the eight generals out of their daze.
That's right!
Why were they hesitating so much? They suddenly recalled that even without the crewmembers' help, they could easily kill Xiao Chen.
Clearly, that earlier saber strike could not be executed on demand, at any moment.
"Kill!" The eight generals shouted coldly and unleashed their berserk aura, which was merged with their wills of soul, as they charged over.
Clouds churned in the sky as the eight descended on Xiao Chen.
At this moment, it was like the sky above Xiao Chen's head was forced down.
With these eight experts working together, they were truly extraordinary. The aura they showed was even stronger than that of the one thousand crewmembers combined.
Many people sighed in their hearts, This is the accumulation of the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group.
Who else aside from the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group could have eight Major Primal Core experts that were as strong as Star Venerates?
No matter how heaven-defying this white-clad bladesman was, he was destined to die. This would only serve to boost the Wolf Smoke Pirate Group's reputation.
Upon seeing the eight generals attack, Xiao Chen quickly formed a hand seal with his right hand, instantly executing the Life Bestowal Spell.
In the next second, the winds and clouds changed.
The sky suddenly darkened, and a flash of scarlet light soared into the sky from behind Xiao Chen. The sky that was pushed down towards Xiao Chen's head immediately got lifted back up.
What Xiao Chen carved that day was the strongest and most terrifying existence in the history of the Azure Dragon bloodline—the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor!
