Chapter 560: Chapter 560: Hiding in the Valley, Trapping the Shadowless Sword!
"Shall we go over and investigate?"
Li Mo was undecided, thinking that the treasure wouldn’t run away from here, and it was better to deal with potential problems first.
Chu Zhongtian hesitated briefly and said, "I can’t tell from the Shadowless Sword whether it’s Nian Ciyun from Xuanji Sect, or that kid who took the Earth Fire Magic Artifact!"
If it were Lu Chen, that would be one thing.
What worried him were Ao Yu and Nian Ciyun together!
"No matter what, let’s go take a look. Even if it’s Ao Yu, he consumed a lot of his moral strength at the time, so he probably can’t confront us with his full power! We just need to stay alert!"
Hearing Li Mo’s words, Chu Zhongtian felt it made sense, so he sheathed his Shadowless Sword.
Li Mo also withdrew the Li Fire Curse, conjuring a ball of flames in his hand.
They walked side by side, maintaining a distance of several steps, and slowly headed towards the peak.
The mountain seemed to split the space into two, with Lu Chen unable to sense the spiritual power fluctuations from the other side, and likewise, the two men couldn’t sense that the other side of the valley was a field of ice.
However, Chu Zhongtian still had some advantage. As he neared the valley, the sensation grew stronger, confirming his suspicion that it was either Lu Chen or Nian Ciyun inside!
"Just in case, I’ll use the Shadowless Sword to probe the situation first," Chu Zhongtian said. "Li friend, you cover from the side. If someone shows up, hit them with the Li Fire Curse!"
"Understood!"
Li Mo was also fully prepared.
As they approached the summit, they both stopped simultaneously. Chu Zhongtian, wielding the Shadowless Sword, sent it whistling over the mountaintop!
Lu Chen also worried they might pursue him, and hadn’t dared to show himself, not because he was wary of these two.
Rather, in the icy terrain, he held the advantage.
While pondering how to lure the two into the ice field to confront them, he suddenly spotted a subtle sword shadow piercing through the snowstorm within his mind’s eye!
"They’re here!"
Lu Chen immediately recognized it as Chu Zhongtian’s Shadowless Sword, his heart skipped a beat, and he thought of a plan!
"I’ll keep your Shadowless Sword here, and let’s see if you don’t come looking for it!"
As the Shadowless Sword flew over his head, Lu Chen didn’t hesitate to concentrate Ice Spiritual Power and thrust his Hateful Heaven Spear skyward!
"Whoosh—"
The overwhelming Ice Spiritual Power swiftly engulfed the Shadowless Sword, and then the Ice Spiritual Power quickly solidified into ice!
The Shadowless Sword became a sculpture of ice in an instant!
"Let’s see where you can run to now!"
Lu Chen was pleased; the thick layer of ice severed the connection between the Shadowless Sword and Chu Zhongtian, and it fell straight down, crashing on the slope of the valley and then rolling down toward the ice field.
Lu Chen didn’t intend to take the Shadowless Sword; he just needed to let Chu Zhongtian know that his sword had been left behind.
And as he expected, Chu Zhongtian stuttered when he discovered the loss of the Shadowless Sword’s presence, showing an incredulous expression.
The Shadowless Sword was his Lifebound Magic Weapon, and unless he died, such a situation was impossible!
"Chu friend, what do you make of this?"
Li Mo also paid close attention to Chu Zhongtian and quickly noticed the change in his expression.
"The Shadowless Sword... it’s gone!"
Chu Zhongtian’s face turned very grim, and he continuously manipulated his exclusive Sword Control Technique, but no response came.
"Could there be an ambush over there?"
Li Mo furrowed his brow; this was not good news.
"Here’s what we’ll do," Chu Zhongtian certainly didn’t want to end up worse off in his attempt to gain the upper hand, and he said to Li Mo, "I’ll go to the mountaintop to check the situation. Li friend, do as you did before, and if someone appears, attack with the Li Fire Curse!"
"Rest assured, Chu friend!"
Li Mo lifted the Li Fire in his palm, signaling he understood.
Chu Zhongtian raised his head, looking straight at the mountaintop, and then began to walk slowly and cautiously upwards!
He was eager to see what lay beneath the valley, to cause his Shadowless Sword to disappear without a trace!
He was certain the Shadowless Sword had not been damaged.
It had been nurtured with his blood essence for over ten years and was connected to his very life. If the Shadowless Sword took even the slightest hit, he would feel it.
But the sword had just vanished, like it had gone missing, which was intolerable for Chu Zhongtian!
The movements of the two did not escape the notice of Li Yanran and Qin Yaotiao, although they were too far away to understand what had happened.
But one thing was certain.
Now the two men had separated, and if they struck Li Mo together, they might achieve a surprising effect!
"Sister Li, shall we..."
Qin Yaotiao saw the opportunity as well and looked to Li Yanran!
Li Yanran narrowed her eyes, glanced at Li Mo, and then at Chu Zhongtian.
"If you’re confident you can withstand his strange fire, then we might take the chance to kill him!"
Qin Yaotiao pondered thoughtfully, feeling the condition of her body, where the absorbed Li Fire showed no abnormalities.
So, she nodded firmly.
Li Yanran said resolutely, "Then... kill!"
