Chapter 1323 - 1323 1309 Falling into a Trap

Chapter 1323: Chapter 1309: Falling into a Trap Chapter 1323: Chapter 1309: Falling into a Trap A massive Green Dragon burst out from the Sacred Spirit Stone, swooping down at Su Zhanze like an eagle spreading its wings. Su Zhanze brought down his sword, instantly releasing over a dozen bolts of lightning. With a loud boom, an energy wave from the clash burst forth between the two of them.

Su Zhanze was greatly startled; the power of Longhun had increased so much. However, he quickly realized that Longhun was holding a glowing object that resembled a piece of jade, casting brilliant multicolored light, dazzling to the extreme.

That must be the Sacred Spirit Stone, Su Zhanze conjectured. Very good, as long as the Sacred Spirit Stone was in his hands, killing him would mean the stone would be his.

He couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement, this opportunity was indeed rare.

Longhun continued to attack, sending several waves of energy hurtling towards Su Zhanze; he couldn’t afford to be careless.

Su Zhanze recalled something he had heard, that Ye Chen had spent an entire month studying when contending with Qiandu Xiang, and in the end, the Sacred Spirit Stone still went out of control. He didn’t believe that Longhun could have understood much within just a few days, even though he knew Longhun was incredibly intelligent, time was limited.

The Dragon Slayer Sword, with its unchallenged might, like an edict, continuously absorbed energy. Under Su Zhanze’s repeated enraged roars, it released lightning like threads of rain.

Longhun wanted to test how effective his research over the past days had been. Of course, he knew that compared to the unrivaled Su Zhanze, there was still a gap. It was not possible, in just a few days, to use the Sacred Spirit Stone to defeat the Dragon Slayer Sword which Su Zhanze had studied for a good half a year.

But it wouldn’t be easy for Su Zhanze to defeat him either. He also wanted to take this chance to properly test Su Zhanze’s martial arts and see how much he had improved, as he was in no hurry to escape now.

Lightning bolts, one after another, came pressing down, indeed somewhat suffocating. Without the Sacred Spirit Stone, Longhun was convinced he would not be able to withstand even three rounds, much like the Tianye Demon.

This guy wearing half a mask must hate him to death, he heard Ren Haotian say that this fellow was particularly vain, to the point of narcissism. His face was said to have been ruined during the capture of Shi Xueqin.

Longhun kept pressing out the power of the Sacred Spirit Stone, attempting to counter the attacks.

Su Zhanze seemed completely infuriated, always so easily enraged to the skies, almost like a madman. Some said it was his ruined looks that made him so, and it seemed these stories were true.

“Ugly Freak, your martial arts have really improved quite a bit. You should be thankful to me, without me, how could you have been forced to excel?”

“Damn it, asking for death.” Regardless of whether it was for the Sacred Spirit Stone, he had to tear this guy apart to vent the hatred in his heart. Su Zhanze could confirm, although Longhun possessed the Sacred Spirit Stone, there must be a limit. As long as he surpassed this peak and defeated the opponent, it would be effortless.

“Come on, guy with the mask, stop getting angry over every little thing. Don’t act like a little woman; if you want people to respect you, show some real skill.” Longhun was testing the Sacred Spirit Stone, no mistake about it. The stone in his hand for a few days was completely different from the time it spent in the hands of some local bully. That local bully’s martial arts and intelligence couldn’t compare to his own. Although the bully played them once, in the end, he killed the bully.

Su Zhanze muttered to himself, thinking you won’t be happy for long. He decided to awaken the Dark Beast, which had been dormant for several days. The awakening of the Dark Beast instantly multiplied his power.

Longhun only then remembered about the Dark Beast, which was originally his secret weapon carried on him. If not for the Dark Beast giving him more time to live, Su Zhanze would’ve buried him alive long ago, instead of waiting for Shi Xueqin to come to his rescue.

As the powerful energy strengthened, Longhun quickly felt it; that fellow really hated him, his eyes nearly popping out with the desire to devour him alive. It was heart-wrenching hate, something he could fully sense.

Zun Yu and Ming Bei, along with Teng Yun’e, had arrived, each overseeing a ship; one of the ships was under the charge of the three of them, while they entrusted the other to Ace Killer.

Zun Yu looked at the fierce battle not far ahead, where above them, fireballs were exploding one after another like fireworks, some Winged Dragons fell into the sea from the blasts, some burned while still in the air, continuing to fly for a while, and some ships had started to smoke, with two colliding into one.

Zun Yu, watching the two ships fiercely clashing with sparks flying, asked, “Those two must be experts, right? The one with the sword, is that Su Zhanze?”

Ming Bei glanced over and replied, “Yes, that’s him. Who else could display such godlike prowess? He has been quite formidable recently.”

Zun Yu said, “I heard he killed the Tianye Demon in just three rounds.”

“Yes, very quickly, he didn’t give the Tianye Demon any chance at all.”

Teng Yun’e sneered and said, “In the end, wasn’t he defeated by a little brat? Fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding, otherwise he would’ve been chopped up on Paper Kite Island.” He looked disdainful.

“Indeed, but the little brat defeated him not because of his own martial arts, but because he lured the Evil Spirit to consume Su Zhanze’s energy for several hours, only then finding the opportunity to defeat him.”

“Don’t blame the creature for being lured, didn’t he also rely on the Dragon Slayer Sword to defeat the Tianye Demon? Without the Dragon Slayer Sword, I don’t think he would be of much note.”

“That’s true, the Dragon Slayer Sword really did help him a lot, but his martial arts have indeed improved greatly.”

Zun Yu, looking ahead, asked, “Who is the guy exchanging blows with Su Zhanze?”

Ming Bei said, “It must be the Dragon Soul. With Su Zhanze’s current martial arts abilities and the sword he holds, there are very few people who dare to cross swords with him. Even if there were any with such courage, they wouldn’t last more than a few rounds before being defeated—that’s for sure.”

“But from what I see, that Dragon Soul seems to have fought him for over a dozen rounds.”

Teng Yun’e squinted fiercely, surveying intently, and said, “He’s holding something colorful in his hand, what is that?”

Ming Bei glanced over and said, “It’s neither an Immortal Pearl nor a Heavenly Pearl, so I am certain that it must be the Sacred Spirit Stone; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to withstand several moves.”

Shocked by the revelation, Teng Yun’e said, “Could it be that Dragon Soul has successfully researched it?”

Ming Bei watched intently for a moment and, shaking his head, said, “No, look, the one with the sword is clearly gaining the upper hand. If Dragon Soul had successfully researched it and the Sacred Spirit Stone were that powerful, he should at least be able to fight to a draw with Su Zhanze.” Although they were somewhat far away, it was still quite clear that the person wielding the sword had the advantage.

Excited, Teng Yun’e said, “That is to say, both the Sacred Spirit Stone and the Dragon Slayer Sword are present, which is truly great.” Obviously, the opportunity had increased—a single grab would be quite remarkable, and who could ensure that one would not end up seizing both?

Ming Bei said, “This is the perfect time for us to wait; once they’ve worn each other down nearly enough, we can swoop in and surely catch them off guard.”

“Of course. When the time comes, we will first snatch the Dragon Slayer Sword and the Sacred Spirit Stone, and we won’t have to fear the Demon Domain anymore.” Teng Yun’e utterly despised those guys from the Demon Domain; they had already fled from the Central Plains to the one hundred and eight islands, yet their enemies still refused to relent, which was despicable. He had long harbored the desire to avenge himself with a sword.

Zun Yu asked, “How ready are our preparations?”

In high spirits, Teng Yun’e shouted, “We are all ready, just awaiting your command. If we strike now, we can certainly make it.”

Zun Yu said, “No, we must wait until they have nearly killed each other off before we attack. Everyone, go and prepare. Wait for my signal.”

After Su Zhanze summoned the Dark Beast, Dragon Soul became more and more passive. The fiend became like a mad dog, every kind of energy converging toward him, causing explosions that left him struggling to distinguish north from south, east from west.

Even though Dragon Soul could barely hold on, the lightning bolts unleashed from all directions were too much for the ship, which began to show variously sized cracks on the deck and cabin.

This wasn’t going to work—if he continued fighting this mad dog and the ship started to leak, retreating back to the island would be out of the question, and he definitely didn’t want to go mad alongside that lunatic.

Dragon Soul remained quite calm; it seemed he had thoroughly enraged Su Zhanze. He had reached the limit of controlling the Sacred Spirit Stone and there was no need to risk any further.

He believed Su Zhanze must be extremely excited now.

Drawing out hundreds of streams of energy, a surge suddenly gushed out from the Sacred Spirit Stone and charged toward Su Zhanze.

With a cold sneer, Su Zhanze murmured in his heart, wondering how much longer this opponent could last. If it were not for the fact that his injuries from Paper Kite Island hadn’t fully healed, he would have killed his opponent long ago. There would certainly not have been a chance for more than a dozen rounds.

Like an unconquerable giant swift as the wind, he roared, unleashing an even more formidable energy.

Having released that energy, Dragon Soul quickly retreated. Mo Ku flew over and said, “Zun Yu’s ships have already arrived; they are on the periphery.”

So it turned out they were constantly monitoring the perimeter, waiting for their moment while engaging the Immortal City Sect in a slaughter.

“How many people?”

“Two ships’ worth.”

“Excellent. That guy really is much more formidable. Let him be arrogant for a bit longer. In one hour, we will signal with smoke to prepare for our retreat back to the Island of the Wicked.” Dragon Soul added, “We must look sufficiently wretched.”

“Don’t worry. Acting is what I do best; I can absolutely guarantee that they will fall for our ploy,” said Mo Ku with confidence.

“Alright then, get ready. Wait for my signal,” Dragon Soul murmured, “Here comes that mad dog again. We must ensure they don’t destroy our ship; otherwise, we really will have to swim back. I don’t want to end up like a drowned rat.”

Indeed, like a divine being in the wind, the opponent brandishing the Dragon Slayer Sword charged over.

The lightning, like a fishing net, enveloped the space while Su Zhanze moved as if he had suddenly grown wings, everything appearing to be under his control.

Dragon Soul felt almost suffocated; he had reached the limit of the Sacred Spirit Stone’s power. Pushing any further, he feared, might truly lead to a loss of control.
