Chapter 461, Despicable Tactics

Translator: Silavin

 

That sharp sword light shot out from the sword tip like a blood-coloured raging Dragon. Wherever the sword light passed, the ground was cut into a deep trench.

 

“Such powerful Sword Qi!”

 

Looking at that impressive sword strike, the Martial Kings all narrowed their eyes. This sword light was something that even Mid Stage Martial Kings would not dare to receive head-on!

 

The sword light approached like a raging Dragon, rapidly expanding in Qin Yichen’s pupils. Yet, surprisingly, even at this moment, he had not retreated a single step. Instead, he transferred his Spirit Sword to his left hand, slightly bent his right arm. From his posture, it seemed he intended to receive this sword light head-on!

 

“Arrogant!”

 

“You are seeking death!”

 

Seeing this, the Martial Kings all sneered. On Elder Yun’s face, a sinister smile also appeared.

 

*Swoosh!*

 

The sword light flashed, and in just a single breath, it crossed the distance between the two. Just as it was about to strike Qin Yichen’s body, the Taotie Martial Soul behind him trembled. His arm shook, and he fiercely struck out!

 

*Clang!*

 

Unexpectedly, this sword light did not tear Qin Yichen into pieces. Instead, it suddenly paused, stopping in an extremely strange manner!

 

On Qin Yichen’s right fist, silver light of the Lightning Attribute frantically flashed, continuously resisting the sharp energy from the sword light.

 

“He actually blocked it with his physical body!?”

 

The Northern Depths Sect disciples cried out in shock. He had managed to block the full-force attack of Elder Yun with pure physical strength!

 

“Hmph, even if he temporarily blocked it, so what? Can he hold out?”

 

The other two Elders snorted coldly and mocked.

 

However, at this moment, Elder Yun was extremely shocked. He was very clear about the power of his attack. Even he himself would only dodge when facing this move! Yet, this young man not only blocked it but was also resisting it!

 

*Crack! Crack!*

 

Amidst the shocked gazes, suddenly, there were subtle sounds. In this quiet forest, these sounds seemed extremely loud.

 

Everyone looked closely and saw that on the crimson sword light, cracks were beginning to appear, eventually spreading like a spider web.

 

*Bang!*

 

Finally, under the shocked gazes of everyone, the sword light suddenly exploded! The Yuan Energy waves violently spread out, and wood splinters and dust filled the air!

 

“Seems like the Elders of the Northern Depths Sect are nothing special!” While everyone was still shocked, a calm voice rang out from within the dust.

 

Looking at the tall figure that was faintly visible in the dust, everyone’s eyes were filled with shock. Even Elder Yun’s full-force attack could not injure him. In fact, in that terrible explosion, the young man’s figure had only retreated two steps!

 

How old was this young man?

 

Not even twenty years old, yet he already possesses such terrifying strength. This inadvertently made the ten Early Stage Martial Kings, who had thought themselves superior after breaking through to the Martial King Realm, feel inferior.

 

“Boss!” At this moment, Lu Xiaoguan’s voice came from behind Qin Yichen.

 

Qin Yichen looked to the side and saw that Lu Xiaoguan had been pushed back nearly ten meters. The remnant waves of that terrible attack, even after being blocked by him, was something the latter was unable to withstand!

 

“Damn it!” Qin Yichen cursed inwardly, frowning as he looked around. At this moment, except for the Evil Ravine behind him, all escape routes have been completely blocked.

 

Even if he quickly killed his way out, with Lu Xiaoguan and Gongshu Zhiyi in tow, it would still be difficult to escape the Northern Depths Sect’s pursuit.

 

*Swoosh! Swoosh!* Seeing Elder Yun’s failure, the other two Elders moved, darting in to stand with Elder Yun.

 

If it were known that three Northern Depths Sect Elders were joining forces against a young man, they would certainly be ridiculed. But at this moment, they no longer cared about status or face.

 

Qin Yichen was too great a threat. Today, no matter what, they had to eliminate this huge threat and absolutely could not allow him to grow, Else, he would one day become a great enemy of their Northern Depths Sect!

 

“Young man, today you can’t escape even with wings. You might as well surrender, and we’ll grant you a quick death!”

 

Elder Yun’s face was grim as he viciously said to Qin Yichen. He had also noticed that this young man seemed to care deeply about the two behind him. If the fight continued, even if he could withstand it, the two behind him would definitely not be able to endure the aftermath of a battle of this level!

 

“When I killed Qiu Jizhuo that day, it was only because he was aggressive and wanted me dead…” Qin Yichen took a deep breath and slowly said. “Today, Elders from the same Sect are forcing me to repeat my actions…”

 

“Forcing you? Hmph, so what if we are!”

 

Elder Yun sneered coldly. In this region, no matter how extraordinary one was, if they dare to offend the Northern Depths Sect, there was absolutely no second choice but death!

 

“This is what your Northern Depths Sect has brought upon itself…”

 

After fleeing all this way, at this moment, Qin Yichen finally began to no longer suppress the anger in his heart.

 

*Hmph!* Elder Yun snorted coldly, then gave a look to the two Elders beside him. The two Elders darted out, and as Yuan Energy surged, two powerful attacks shot out.

 

However, these two attacks did not even touch a hair on Qin Yichen’s body. It did not even come close to him – as though the attacks missed. But how could Two Mid Stage Martial Kings make such a simple mistake?

 

The two Elders’ eyes flashed with a sinister light. This was not because they could not hit Qin Yichen, but because their targets were Lu Xiaoguan and Gongshu Zhiyi behind him!

 

“Die!”

 

At the same time, a shout filled with killing intent rang out. Elder Yun stepped forward, holding the Blood Crimson Sword, which carried a sharp and powerful Sword Qi, as he shot towards Qin Yichen.

 

The previous attacks from the two Elders were deliberately done to distract Qin Yichen.

 

“Despicable!” Gongshu Zhiyi cursed, her beautiful face gradually turning ice-cold.

 

Facing the charging Elder Yun, Qin Yichen lowered his head, neither paying attention to the attacks aimed at Lu Xiaoguan and Gongshu Zhiyi, nor showing any signs of wanting to resist Elder Yun.

 

“Since you insist on seeking death…”

 

Just as Elder Yun had charged in front of Qin Yichen, his sword having already torn through Qin Yichen’s clothes, the latter’s whispered words suddenly turned into thunderclaps, exploding in Elder Yun’s ear. “Then I shall grant you a swift end!”

 

*Swoosh!*

 

A white light flashed from Qin Yichen’s hand, entering Elder Yun’s chest, then emerging from his back.
