Chapter 284: What a fast sword!

Chapter 284: Chapter 284: What a fast sword!

"What a fast sword!"

Lu Chen’s complexion changed; if it had come at him from the front, he could have precisely seen its trajectory using the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, thus evading it.

However, coming from behind, he could only sense the Sword Qi, with no way to gather more information.

"First, dodge it before anything else!"

Without hesitation, Lu Chen threw himself forward!

In the next moment, the Blood Sword swept over his head, severing a few strands of his hair!

But the speed of the sword exceeded Lu Chen’s imagination!

After disappearing into the darkness, even before Lu Chen could get up, the Blood Sword was already flying back at him!

The sword tip glowed with a sinister red light, aiming straight for Lu Chen’s brow!

If it struck, he would be severely wounded if not dead!

Lu Chen dared not even breathe; he rolled over again!

Fortunately, the Blood Sword’s returning speed, albeit fast, was within his line of sight!

This allowed the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique to be of use!

"If only my Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique had opened the ’Heart’s Eye’!"

The Pure Jade Vase had told him that the Heart’s Eye was equivalent to the Spiritual Sense of the Core Formation Stage.

With his current combat ability, if he could have an ability similar to Spiritual Sense, he would be virtually invincible among his peers!

Who could still ambush him?

Lu Chen accurately gauged the Blood Sword’s trajectory, slightly tilting his head to let the Blood Sword skim past his cheek!

The Sword Cultivator was immensely frustrated, unable to believe that Lu Chen had managed to evade two consecutive strikes!

His sword was already fast, and with the added power of his essence blood, this Blood Sword was no different from a high-quality Magic Artifact!

But how could an early Foundation Establishment cultivator like Lu Chen evade it, was it just blind luck?

"Next, you won’t be so lucky in dodging!"

The Sword Cultivator’s eyes showed a hint of venomous spite as he gripped the returning Blood Sword, then fiercely slammed the hilt against his chest!

Pfft—

He spat out another mouthful of essence blood!

But this time, he spat it onto the hilt!

Instantly, a crimson glow shone on his palm gripping the hilt, emitting traces of demonic energy!

"You might dodge a flying sword, but let’s see if you can dodge my sword moves!"

The Sword Cultivator growled, and his eyes gradually turned blood-red as he took profound steps towards Lu Chen!

Meanwhile, Lu Chen was not one to just sit waiting for death; it was either the Sword Cultivator’s life or his own!

As he tilted his head to dodge the sword, Lu Chen also swiftly retracted his spear, using the butt to spring from the ground, and leapt into the air!

"Great Roc Spreads Its Wings!"

With only one enemy left, Lu Chen no longer needed to hold back. As he executed the spear technique, he was already converting the Earth Spirit Power in his body into Five Elements Spiritual Power!

As he shouted out, a tremendous power surged from his body!

The dark spear shaft transformed into shades of grey and white; Lu Chen wielded the spear in his hands like a mighty pillar, smashing it down towards the oncoming Sword Cultivator!

In this moment, no matter how exquisite the Sword Cultivator’s steps were, Lu Chen’s spear left him nowhere to hide!

"How can there be such a spear technique?"

He paled as Lu Chen rose into the air, out of reach of his flying sword!

Before, he could have commanded the flying sword to strike at Lu Chen.

But after spitting out essence blood, the flying sword was tightly connected to his hand.

This should have been an advantage as the flying sword was like an extension of his body.

However, at this moment, his sword had lost its agility!

Sensing the formidable power emanating from Lu Chen, the Sword Cultivator didn’t dare to clash head-on and hastily retreated, tucking and rolling awkwardly to the side, barely managing to avoid the attack!

Boom!

Lu Chen’s spear heavily slammed into the ground, producing a thunderous noise that echoed continuously within the confined palace!

Dust rose from the ground and sand kept shaking down from the palace ceiling.

It was like a sandstorm was occurring!

"What an opportunity!"

Seeing Lu Chen seemingly blinded by the sandstorm and just getting up with his spear, the Sword Cultivator’s gaze sharpened, thinking it was the perfect chance to kill Lu Chen!

Immediately, he flicked his wrist and stepped forward again!

In the martial world, speed reigns supreme!

He trusted in the swiftness of his sword and in the Blood Sword technique, which temporarily made the flying sword part of his body, allowing him to strike wherever he pointed!

This strike, again emanating a sinister blood-light, aimed at Lu Chen’s brow!

"Again?"

This time, Lu Chen did not dodge.

He had anticipated his opponent’s move.

To know the enemy and know yourself ensures victory in every battle!

I know what you will do, but do you know how I will respond?

A mocking smile flickered across Lu Chen’s lips!
