Chapter 405 Concentrated Learning for One Hundred Years
The imposing and majestic armor, the smooth movements, were so handsome that the blood vessels in the minds of the cultivators present almost burst.
“Who is this person?”
At the same time, a question arose in everyone’s mind!
Even the doubts about Su Hao’s mysterious appearance were temporarily suppressed.
Yuan Ze’s smile disappeared, he retracted his Twelve Spirit Sword, and asked with confusion, “Fellow Feng Dan, have you ever heard of someone wearing crystal armor?”
Feng Dan’s shields were already full, and he shook his head in response, “Never.”
Yuan Ze snorted coldly, “Playing tricks, enemy not friend. Please, fellow Feng Dan, watch over things for me. I’ll go and investigate.”
Feng Dan replied, “Go ahead.”
Yuan Ze formed hand seals and approached, waving his hand casually, and a dark purple light shone towards Su Hao.
“Violet Light Body Barrier!”
The violet light was extremely fast. By the time Su Hao noticed it, it had already shone on him, forming a faint purple light curtain around him. Although it couldn’t break through his absolute defense, it immobilized him.
After successfully restraining Su Hao, Yuan Ze then shot out a piercing armor-breaking artifact.
“Is this a restraint technique? Not bad.”
Su Hao struggled slightly and found that this restraining technique was extremely firm; all his joints were fixed, making it difficult for him to exert force. To break free, he needed to decipher the structure of the technique. Seeing another artifact coming towards him, he didn’t panic and directly activated “Blink”.
Su Hao’s figure blurred and appeared beside him, ignoring the attacks of the Nascent Soul realm cultivator, flying towards the summit of Qianfeng Assembly.
With so many enemies, rushing up to fight them directly would be too inefficient, so Su Hao needed to create more artifacts first.
Yuan Ze’s armor-breaking artifact missed its target, and he frowned, “How did he break my Violet Light Body Barrier?”
He looked back, perhaps hoping Feng Dan could see something.
Disappointingly, Feng Dan also shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”
Yuan Ze said, “This person is strange. Let’s join forces to fight him.”
Feng Dan agreed, “Agreed.”
With Feng Dan’s approval, Yuan Ze swept his gaze across the field and saw a group of Golden Core cultivators behind him, their faces serious, hesitating to approach. He then said loudly, “Fellow cultivators, let’s join forces to confront him.”
After that, he chased towards Su Hao’s direction, with Feng Dan following behind. Seeing this, the Golden Core cultivators hesitated but eventually followed suit.
The Nascent Soul realm cultivators couldn’t help but be cautious. The bodies of the seven Golden Core cultivators who had died just now were still lying at the foot of the mountain.
Ever since that mysterious Foundation Establishment realm cultivator appeared, this place has been filled with strangeness. And now, out of nowhere, emerged a figure clad in a majestic crystal armor, who actually managed to retreat unscathed under the attacks of Nascent Soul cultivators. Judging by his calm demeanor, his strength must be formidable.
If one were too impulsive and rushed forward, they might end up in trouble.
Su Hao completely ignored the cultivators behind him. They might look intimidating in numbers, but they posed little threat to him, or rather, they posed no threat at all. The reason he blocked the attacks of the Nascent Soul cultivators was to divert their attention to him, ensuring relative safety for Feng Ling.
He wasn’t afraid of these cultivators, but Feng Ling might not feel the same way. If his master accidentally died, Su Hao wouldn’t be able to find another master like her.
Su Hao’s speed was astonishing. In the blink of an eye, he landed on the mountaintop. The ground beneath his feet transformed into adamantium armor, spreading out to a radius of a hundred meters, turning into translucent steel.
“Rise!”
Within the adamantium armor domain, forty-eight crystal flying swords slowly ascended.
This scene stunned both Yuan Ze and Feng Dan, the two Nascent Soul cultivators. It was simply surreal. The Golden Core cultivators widened their eyes, staring at this bizarre sight.
What kind of technique was this? It was so strange.
However, everyone present was shrewd. They simply needed to find a way to counter the enemy’s actions. Yuan Ze shouted, “Fellow cultivators, why hesitate? Attack now!”
For a moment, more than twenty cultivators emitted various colored lights around them and launched their attacks at Su Hao.
Su Hao knew that it would take time for his flying swords to form, so he had prepared in advance. He covered each flying sword with a “Counter-Space Shield” as protection. No attack could interrupt the formation of the flying swords.
Once the forty-eight flying swords took shape, Su Hao would become a reaper of cultivators, with no one able to stop him.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
A large number of various colored artifacts flew towards Su Hao, densely packed together. Some aimed at Su Hao himself, while others targeted the forming flying swords.
If anyone were in Su Hao’s position, seeing so many attacks would undoubtedly make their scalp numb.
“Puff, puff, puff~”
Countless attacks bombarded Su Hao, but the scene of the crystal armored figure being shattered did not appear as expected. These seemingly sharp and unparalleled artifact attacks effortlessly pierced through Su Hao, hitting the adamantium armor on the ground behind him and shattering the crystal armor on the ground, leaving behind countless densely packed holes in an instant.
Not only was the crystal armored figure like this, but the forty-eight flying swords being formed were also the same.
The scene where the stubborn shields resisted attacks did not happen.
“Is it resolved?”
Someone asked the question that was on everyone’s mind, but most present were cultivators of Golden Core or higher realms, with exceptionally keen spiritual senses. They quickly concluded: it was not resolved.
“Is it an illusion? All our attacks went right through!”
“Very likely, but our spiritual senses still perceive him there.”
“Spiritual senses can be deceived!”
“Oh right, why does the spiritual power of this crystal-armored figure match that of the Foundation Establishment junior with the top-tier artifact?”
As soon as they heard this, everyone immediately realized, “Indeed!”
“I understand now. The top-tier defensive artifact of that Foundation Establishment junior is this set of armor on him!”
For a moment, greed flashed in everyone’s eyes. Strong defense was a given, but it was also incredibly stylish.
Yuan Ze and Feng Dan exchanged a glance, both noticing the puzzlement in each other’s eyes, which made them more vigilant. Having lived for many years and reached the Nascent Soul realm, they had experienced countless hardships and knew that the world was far from simple. Everywhere was a crisis, and if they weren’t careful, they could become someone else’s nourishment, their centuries of cultivation turned into someone else’s stepping stone.
Yuan Ze swept his spiritual sense and sensed that in the distant sky, three of their Nascent Soul cultivators were besieging Elder Wu Shen of the Yunzhong Valley.
Elder Wu Shen was incredibly proficient in the “Mist in the Mountains” technique, so it might take a while to deal with him.
“If the situation isn’t right, immediately seek help from other Nascent Soul cultivators. This siege might not end well. Where did this Foundation Establishment junior come from after all!”
After making the decision in his heart, Yuan Ze made a hand seal, hiding himself in a purple mist and disappearing. The purple mist thickened and spread, blocking the spiritual senses of the others.
Suddenly, twelve mist serpents burst out of the purple mist, coiling and advancing, opening their large mouths, silently roaring, and pouncing towards Su Hao.
At this moment of uncertainty and doubt among the cultivators, Su Hao’s forty-eight flying swords had already been completed. In an instant, a green light radiated from them, floating in the air.
It was at this moment that the cultivators present all felt a sense of danger enveloping them.
“What is that? Flying swords?”
“How can he control so many?”
At this moment of doubt, Su Hao turned his head and glanced at the group of cultivators flying outside the mountain for the first time.
Then, he calmly spoke, “Let’s clear the way with the flying swords I’ve just learned recently! Let me pursue my goal of studying in peace for a hundred years!”
Su Hao’s determination to pursue longevity was no joke!
To digest the knowledge of this world, a hundred years might not be enough!
Su Hao extended a finger and gently flicked it.
“Go!”
In an instant, the floating long swords around Su Hao moved, emitting a faint green light, drawing graceful arcs and shooting towards the cultivators outside the mountain.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—”
A unique sound of breaking through the air echoed, and forty-eight streams of green light, each choosing its target, flew towards the cultivators.
“Not good! They’re green light artifacts, we can’t block them, quick, dodge!”
The cultivators activated their techniques and artifacts, some wrapping themselves tightly, others using spatial displacement techniques to dodge, or shooting out their own artifacts to meet Su Hao’s green light flying swords.
“Clang, clang, clang—”
For a moment, dazzling lights and shadows filled the air, chaos reigning supreme.
