Chapter 497: Chapter 497: Within Seven Steps, the Spear is Both Accurate and Fast!

"Strike him when he is ill, and kill him!"

Lu Chen didn’t care where Kong Wu’s fear came from, just do it!

With regards to the Hateful Heaven Spear Technique, Lu Chen had been cultivating it to perfection since he was a martial artist, skillfully connecting various spear techniques into combinations.

Thus, in one go, he could suppress his opponent so they couldn’t even lift their head.

And then, deliver a lethal blow in the end!

Facing Kong Wu now, his thoughts were the same!

He had anticipated that "Sweeping Thousands of Armies" wouldn’t be able to achieve absolute lethal effects.

The pride of the Haotian Sect, with the strongest of the Innate Daoist Bodies, the Immaculate Dao Body.

The firepower of Spiritual Fire might, to him, be no different than ordinary spiritual power.

Lu Chen guessed right, Kong Wu did feel the aura of Spiritual Fire from this firepower, and within this aura...

There was faintly an Earth Fire’s qi!

For a Foundation Establishment Stage practitioner, possessing even a single flame of Spiritual Fire would be incredibly astonishing.

And the presence of Earth Fire’s qi...

Could only mean that Lu Chen was also an extraordinary existence within the Casting Gear Pavilion!

"Kid, you think with Spiritual Fire, you can make me back off?"

Kong Wu was indeed an unparalleled genius, reacting in just a moment, switching to a different countermeasure!

It was a palm, but completely different!

"Catching Fire Palm!"

Though called a palm, it turned into a claw as soon as he reached out!

And just by the name of this cultivation technique, one could tell it was out of the ordinary!

This time, Kong Wu’s palm precisely caught the shaft of the spear!

Spiritual Fire boosted Lu Chen’s offensive, but it also lit up the cave, allowing Kong Wu to see!

And Lu Chen tensed up, realizing he had been too hasty, wanting to kill such a prodigy in one go?

Complacent!

Feeling the immense strength transmitted from the spear, Lu Chen resisted while swiftly withdrawing the Spiritual Fire, switching to Five Elements Spiritual Power instead.

The cave darkened once more, and Lu Chen switched to another spear technique!

"Great Roc Spreads Its Wings!"

Taking advantage of the force Kong Wu used to try and wrestle the spear away, Lu Chen stepped forward, slightly depressing the spearshaft before suddenly coiling his strength and, like a spring, leaped up with the spear!

Kong Wu, caught off guard by the sudden change in force direction, wanted to let go but it was too late, and the upward momentum lifted him off his feet!

Kong Wu panicked, hurrying to let go. His Catching Fire Palm had one utility: to be impervious to harm from Spiritual Fire, meant for capturing Spiritual Fire and not for contending with the power of Lu Chen’s spear technique!

But midair without a Spiritual Artifact in hand, it was obviously too late to take out his Magic Artifact to control it for flight, so he immediately took out his own Magic Artifact, a silver hook, and directly hooked onto the shaft of Lu Chen’s spear to stabilize his figure!

Moreover, this way even if Lu Chen wanted to injure him with the spear, he could use it to create distance between them!

It wasn’t Lu Chen’s first time seeing Kong Wu’s Magic Artifact, yet he couldn’t help but inwardly praise Kong Wu for being able to counter with it.

His mind raced, and the second half of the "Great Roc Spreads Its Wings" quickly transitioned into a different spear technique!

"Strength that Pulls Rivers and Mountains!"

This technique was meant to be defensive, focusing spiritual power in the lower body.

But Lu Chen’s goal was to use the moment Kong Wu’s silver hook was still on the spear to yank him down from the air!

Kong Wu sneered, "Kid, beyond seven steps, your spear is fast, but within seven steps..."

In his eyes, all of Lu Chen’s skills resided in the Heavenly Inquiry Spear.

And when he hooked it, he had already thought through his next spell!

Amid a grim laugh, he flicked his silver hook upward, disengaging from the spear, and slashed toward Lu Chen’s neck!

If he was further away, his silver hook wouldn’t reach.

But at such close proximity, Lu Chen’s spear instead played to his disadvantage!

Let’s see how you block this!

Kong Wu’s hook was fast.

In the darkness, a streak of silver light flashed by.

But he didn’t know.

No matter how fast you are, in Lu Chen’s eyes, it would slow down by several times!

The next moment, his smile froze, his face showing incredible shock, his brow twitching, signifying he was enduring great pain!

Drip drop!

Blood flowed, Lu Chen’s long spear had already pierced through his body!

Then, Lu Chen’s voice followed!

"Within seven steps, my spear is both accurate and fast!"
