Chapter 282 – Blazing Ancient Sword

The next time the soldier appeared, he was thirty meters away from Yang Tian. The Night Emissary did not have a high defense and was not in good shape after taking several attacks from Yang Tian. The soldier felt the blood within his body was boiling severely and needed to focus on suppressing the condition.

The observers were all shocked by Yang Tian’s display of Dragon-Claw Hand, it looked as though Yang Tian’s hands had transformed into a real dragon claw when he pulled out the Night Emissary from invisibility. The observers knew that they could not have done what Yang Tian did; they were not even able to detect the Night Emissary in the first place.

“Step back, I will handle it.”

Jiang Lie spoke out, the Night Emissary was undoubtedly not Yang Tian’s match. Moreover, Jiang Lie could sense pressure from Yang Tian’s display of power, but Yang Tian had nearly injured Ji Hou Tao, so Jiang Li needs to do something. Jiang Lie feels that even if he could not win Yang Tian, he should have no problems protecting himself against Yang Tian. Most importantly, this might earn Ji Tian Luo’s favor.

“Okay.”

When the Night Emissary saw that it was Jiang Lie, he immediately let him take over the stage. On the surface, Jiang Lie was also the number one expert of C City in public. The Night Emissary was glad to allow Jiang Lie to takeover.

Jiang Lie slowly withdrew the Blazing Ancient Sword on his back as he replaced the Night Emissary. Energy welled up from his body and slowly covered Yang Tian.

Yang Tian saw that the weapon Jiang Lie used was an Epic Rank Weapon; fortunately, it was in a sealed state, else Yang Tian would either die or be severely injured with a single sword strike.

Jiang Lie was killed by Luo Zhan in his previous life, that was why Jiang Lie did not appear on the Top Ten Experts Ranking, but being the master of Blazing Lava City meant that Jiang Lie’s fighting power should not be underestimated.

Jiang Le was an Inner Art Martialist as well as a Sword Martialist. When the Blazing Ancient Sword in Jiang Lie’s hand was pointed towards Yang Tian, he sensed lethal danger, the sharpness of the energy from a Sword Martialist also caused Yang Tian to feel faint stabbing pains.

“Allow me to exchange pointers with you!”

Jiang Lie did not hold any good feelings towards Yang Tian and would naturally not hold back. Blazing Ancient Sword began to emit fiery red sword energy and sent ten consecutive sword energy slashes towards Yang Tian.

Even though it was a sealed weapon, the passive effect of an Epic Rank Weapon was still active, the fiery red energy imbued within the sword energy slashes possessed a burning effect.

Yang Tian used Dragon-Claw Hand and created two huge illusionary dragon claws that attacked the incoming sword energy.

Bang Bang

The ten sword energy attacks that were meant to test the opponent was destroyed by the dragon claws. Jiang Lie tightly gripped the Blazing Ancient Sword before jumping up and hacking the sword at Yang Tian’s head.

The sharp energy emitted by Blazing Ancient Sword was applying huge pressure on Yang Tian, he changed his mind to block the sword with his hands because the Golden Silkworm Gloves would likely not be able to handle the sharpness of the sword.

Windwalk

Yang Tian used Windwalk to quickly move away, using the skill to move to Jiang Lie’s back at the same time. Dragon-Claw Hand struck at Jiang Lie from behind; Liang Jie was able to sense danger coming from his back and made a quick turn, facing Yang Tian directly.

However, Yang Tian’s Dragon-Claw Hand has already reached Jiang Lie, who was only able to use the body of his weapon to defend against Yang Tian’s attack.

Ding Ding

Yang Tian used all seven forms of Dragon-Claw Hand consecutively, all the attacks landed on Blazing Ancient Sword and were blocked by the sword, but the force behind each attack needs to be absorbed by Jiang Lie instead. Jiang Lie took a total of seventeen steps back, the last strike from Yang Tian even nearly forced Jiang Lie to lose his grip on Blazing Ancient Sword, but Jiang Lie managed to hold onto it till the end.

However, Jiang Lie’s arms were lightly trembling after receiving Yang Tian’s attack.

Jiang Lie was slightly shocked at Yang Tian’s attack power, he rejoiced that the powerful Blazing Ancient Sword has a tough enough body to take Yang Tian’s attack, else he would not be able to withstand Yang Tian’s barrage.

Yang Tian was also sighed inwardly at the might of an Epic Rank Weapon, it was able to block his strongest set of attacks. Moreover, Jiang Lie did not seem to be badly affected, as well.

“My turn.”

Jiang Lie released his attack after taking Yang Tian’s attacks.

An Inner Arts Martialist’s advantage lies in its ability to control Inner Energy.

Blazing Ancient Sword floated and flew above Jiang Lie’s head, his energy also surged in an instant at the same time.

Nine Layer Sword Split

The single Blazing Ancient Sword suddenly turned into nine swords. The nine Blazing Ancient Swords turned into nine steaks that attacked Yang Tian from nine different directions.

Lei Xing wanted to use his Magic Energy Equipment to help Yang Tian whose situation was amiss. However, the Night Emissary appeared in front of Lei Xing and obstructed Lei Xing from providing support.

Lei Xing was a Rank 3 Gunmaster, it was going to be tough for him when he was being targeted by a Night Emissary at close-range.

Yang Tian noticed Lei Xing’s situation, but the former knew that the Dark Emissary was injured by him. Even if Lei Xing was not a match for the Dark Emissary, he should have no problems facing the latter for a short period.

Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh

Nine Blazing Ancient Swords shot towards Yang Tian. Each of the swords possessed an unrivaled destructiveness that prevented Yang Tian from facing them directly.

Yang Tian moved extremely quickly but was still injured by three of the Blazing Ancient Swords. Fortunately, Yang Tian’s Vajra Divine Art help his body quickly heal the three injuries caused by the Blazing Ancient Swords.

The nine Blazing Ancient Swords gathered in the sky, this time, the swords did not split up to attack but launched a focus attack at Yang Tian.

The nine Blazing Ancient Swords were locked onto Yang Tian; no matter how Yang Tian moved, the nine swords would chase after him closely.

Mental Disruption

Although Yang Tian was chased by the Blazing Ancient Swords, he was able to maintain enough space to launch a Mental Disruption at Jiang Lie.

Jiang Lie’s lock on Yang Tian was disrupted, causing the Blazing Ancient Swords under his control to attack the metahumans nearby instead.

The observers were shocked when they saw the nine Ancient Blazing Swords charging at them suddenly. Many of them were only Rank 3, it would mean certain death if the swords reached them.

“F***, why did it fly over!”

“Run, quick!”

Mental Disruption only worked for two seconds on Jiang Lie, the latter noticed the problem the moment he woke up and quickly tried to change the direction of the swords, but it was too late.

Boom Boom

The Blazing Ancient Swords struck the ground, the shockwave produced by the swords sent the nearby metahumans around it flying away. The sharp sword energy tore through their body, causing the ground around the swords to be painted red.

Jiang Lie’s face turned pale, he will not be able to avoid taking a heavy responsibility now that so many metahumans were killed. Yang Tian grabbed on to the opportunity and appeared in front of Jiang Lie.

The Blazing Ancient Sword has yet to be summoned back, causing Jiang Lie to lose half his fighting will when facing against Yang Tian’s attack.
