“The three heroes fought the Giant Sturgeon. Today, we must shatter you into ashes.”
Gui Gu smiled coldly. A black long blade appeared in his hands, carrying boundless radiance. It slashed through the void, its target was the Giant Sturgeon.
As soon as Gui Gu took action, Donghuang Tai`a took action as well, casting the Eastern Emperor Limitless Art. He joined hands with Gui Gu to fight the Giant Sturgeon.
When they came towards the Giant Sturgeon, dreadful aura flooded over the void and even the water from the river sprung up. The Giant Sturgeon roared when the radiance of the strike fell on it. It managed to withstand Gui Gu’s and Donghuang Taia’s strikes with its body, neither had not left any mark on its body. Their palm strike could kill an ordinary Mid Divine King Realm expert but failed to harm the Giant Sturgeon.
“You seem quite capable.”
Xuan Shenji smiled coldly while his eyes blinked with essence. His Silver Light Sword swept across all the enemies. The sword shadows left dazzling radiances around the place. The Giant Sturgeon sent out a blow on the river bank, sweeping across Xuan Shenji with its long fin. Without fear, Xuan Shenji took a step back as a way of attacking. The Silver Light Sword slashed on the Giant Sturgeon’s body and gave off bright golden rays of light. Despite their continuous attacks, they still could not gain the upper hand in the battle against the Giant Sturgeon.
“What a terrifying beast.”
Mo Sanpao took a cold breath in and said solemnly. This beast might be able to eliminate him anytime, and only experts like Donghuang Taia could fight it.
“Yea, Leaving the battlefield might be the best decision we have made.”
Luo Ping said deeply. He could not help but think of Luo Ning`er who was killed by Gui Gu and his eyes were still glaring. He must kill Gui Gu to take revenge. Luo Ping was filled with hatred but knew that he was not Gui Gu’s match. Even Jiang Chen had not joined the battle yet to shatter Gui Gu, that’s why he was even more depressed now.
“Don’t worry. I will help you take revenge. Gui Gu will die, without a doubt.”
Jiang Chen knew that depression, anger and helplessness in Luo Ping. Luo Ping’s beloved was killed and he could only watch that scene. That was a one of a kind helplessness and suffering. Jiang Chen knew the pride in Luo Ping’s heart and how he was feeling.
“Brother Jiang….”
Luo Ping said in a low voice and sighed. He could only put his hope on Jiang Chen now as he could not do anything.
“I think this Giant Sturgeon would not be taken down in such a short period of time. Even though three of them are powerful experts, it won’t be easy for them.”
Yan Qingcheng said in a deep voice. She had been beside Jiang Chen all this time. Since Jiang Chen had not taken any action yet, she had been staying beside him quietly.
“That’s not my business, then. We will only take action by the time they are too busy fighting. Being the most powerful experts in Qi Lian Boundary, they should know about this.”
Jiang Chen stood there and watched the battle. The Giant Sturgeon was not as simple as they imagined. Jiang Chen could sense the breath of a Hierarch Realm expert. But of course, its strength had not reached the Hierarch Realm yet, that was without a doubt. Otherwise, Xuan Shenji and the other two experts would have sensed that already and they would not court their own deaths. The difference between Hierarch Realm and Divine King Realm was huge. They might still have their chance of survival in front of a Half-step Hierarch expert but they would definitely die in front of a Hierarch expert.
“Eastern Emperor Limitless Art, Eastern Emperor Sword Rain!”
Donghuang Tai`a’s speed was as quick as lightning as he spun in the void. Sword rain poured down from the sky with horrifying aura. The Giant Sturgeon kept roaring and soaring up from the void, smashing against its opponents. The people there could not help withdrawing themselves.
As soon as the sword rain caused bloody injuries on the Giant Sturgeon’s body, Gui Gu seized his chance, attacking the Giant Sturgeon with an even more terrifying strike.
“Ghost Gate Blood Devil Blade!”
Blade shadows suddenly enlarged and swept across the river bank. The Giant Sturgeon’s eyes kept turning around in the face of their attacks. Donghuang Taia, Gui Gu and Xuan Shenji’s attacks had become more and more dreadful, and even the Giant Sturgeon dared not to withstand those attacks with its own body.
“Roar..….”
A deafening roar came out at this moment as the Giant Sturgeon was struggling. In front of the radiance of the devastating devil blade, it took a step backwards while its eyes looked sharp and cold, looking solemn.
“Profound Heavenly Sword Seal, seven swords slashes the sky!”
Xuan Shenji’s sword shadows were everywhere and were filled with seven different colours. The sword shadows fell down from the heavens and made the Giant Sturgeon soar from the ground as it wanted to dodge the dreadful seven swords. However, Xuan Shenji’s sword qi was terrifyingly fast. Even Jiang Chen was surprised. This guy’s sword realm might not be as strong as Fang Bi, but the mightiness of his sword seal was still quite terrifying. It would be extremely difficult to withstand his sword strike.
As soon as the seven swords fell, the Giant Sturgeon moved quickly and managed to dodged three sword shadows. However, it still suffered injury from the four sword shadows. The three of them then joined hands to attack the Giant Sturgeon once again and left it no chance to survive at all. Their formidable attacks had almost defeated the Giant Sturgeon.
“Bastard! A bunch of despicable humans. I am going to kill you.”
The Giant Sturgeon cursed. It leapt and snuck into the river and then disappeared.
“Hahaha. Weak. This Giant Sturgeon probably knew that he was not our match So it ran away.”
Gui Gu smiled coldly and said. As their attacks became stronger and stronger, the Giant Sturgeon had already fallen into a passive position and it might’ve been killed if the battle continued. Then its hundred and thousands of years of cultivation would’ve evaporated. Of course, the Giant Sturgeon was unwilling to be killed. These beasts normally were more cunning than humans.
“This guy is severely injured, hope that it won’t come back again.”
Donghuang Tai`a said deeply, looking serious. He had not let his guard off yet. The Giant Sturgeon had gone back to the river with fear lingering in its heart. However, it’s hard to say whether it would appear again for the Silver Dragon Fruit
“Senior Donghuang, the water can dissolve a Divine King Realm expert’s body. Don’t be reckless.”
Jiang Chen said.
Donghuang Tai`a gave Jiang Chen a glance and nodded in understanding. Since Jiang Chen was also part of the Eastern Emperor Sect, he would not harm Donghuang Tai`a. Although he and Jiang Chen did not have much contact, one could clearly see that Donghuang Taiji trusted Jiang Chen very much.
Others might not know this but he understood his own brother very much. Donghuang Taiji was a very arrogant man and he would not treat others politely or even submit to others easily. But now Donghuang Taiji showed great respect to Jiang Chen. This made Donghuang Tai`a trust Jiang Chen as well.
“The Giant Sturgeon must be afraid of defeat. It’s okay to safeguard the Silver Dragon Fruit, but it better understands its own strength.”
Xuan Shenji smiled faintly. At that moment, suddenly a silver light shone out and everyone was gazing at the Maidenhair tree. A silver fruit appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. Hidden in the Maidenhair tree, the fruit was releasing a profound spiritual qi.
