Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword Chapter 908 - 884: Escape and Another Encounter with the Ene
When the Star King retreated several miles, Zhou Heng said to Liu Hu and the seven others, "You leave first!"
"Senior Brother Zhou, let’s leave together!" The seven were very loyal, expressing their desire to advance and retreat together with Zhou Heng.
"Staying here will only drag down!" Zhou Heng spoke the truth; loyalty and righteousness, although positive, can sotis lead to harm.
Liu Hu and the seven showed dejected expressions; indeed, without Zhou Heng’s intervention, they would either be beaten half to death, or they would only be left to kneel and lick soone else’s boots.
Strength, this is strength!
"Still not leaving? Do you really want to see dead?" Zhou Heng coldly said.
"Senior Brother Zhou, you must return safely!" Liu Hu and the seven gritted their teeth and ran towards the mountain. Once they were far enough, they changed direction back to Freshwater Town.
After such an incident, they naturally needed to return to the Academy to lie low. Otherwise, if they encountered that green-clothed youth’s group again in the deep mountains, they would have no place to be buried.
Zhou Heng stood proudly without moving, only staring at that Star King at the foot of the mountain. The opponent’s gaze was also fixed on him.
"Boy, you’re dead! I will definitely kill you!" The green-clothed youth said in a hoarse voice, his gaze towards Zhou Heng filled with resentnt and anger.
Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "Has anyone ever told you that you’re actually an idiot?"
"I’m an idiot?"
"Of course, otherwise, you should know to save such words of threat for after you’ve escaped!" Zhou Heng looked at him with a pitying gaze, "You’ve said so, if I let you go, wouldn’t I be the real fool?"
He smiled broadly, "Do you think I’m a fool?"
The green-clothed youth felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet, spreading instantly throughout his body. It was a fear of death. He had overestimated the deterrence of the Star King or underestimated Zhou Heng’s decisive nature!
"No, don’t kill ! I can forget everything that happened today! I swear! I swear!" He struggled agitatedly, shouting, "Uncle Jianchun, save ! Help!"
Whoosh, the Star King at the foot of the mountain also sensed sothing was wrong and imdiately flashed towards the mountain, flying swiftly.
"I don’t believe you!"
A flash of cold light, and the Black Sword was already out. In the cross of sword qi, the green-clothed youth’s head was sliced off. Zhou Heng kicked the youth’s headless body to the ground. The remaining three unconscious n and won died with their hearts ruptured amidst the violent aura!
He swiftly turned and dashed towards the north.
"You damn brat, hand over your life!" The Star King roared in anger, flying through the air in relentless pursuit.
Zhou Heng showed no emotion, his speed reaching its peak instantly. With the Swift Cloud Radiant Step unfolded, he was as fast as lightning.
He was still a Bright Immortal, and this movent technique could still exert powerful effects. During his dash, he resonated with the earth using the Earth Rune of the Five Elents Rune, boosting his speed to a new level.
The Star King pursued, but although he could fly, this was a forested region with complex terrain, towering trees of hundreds of feet tall, dense foliage that obstructed vision.
So trees even hindered divine sense, increasing the difficulty of pursuit.
The Star King pursued until he fell farther behind. After half an hour, he lost Zhou Heng’s trail completely, letting out an angry roar to the sky, the sound waves rolling like thunder in the air.
But in Qiyun Mountain, there was no shortage of fierce Demon Beasts, and this roar sounded like a provocation to them. Imdiately, a wolf’s howl rang out, piercing stone and splitting tal, the pressure released even more terrifying than that of the Star King.
The middle-aged Star King ultimately dared not engage, firstly because there was no need, and secondly because the chances of losing in a fight were higher. Why fight?
He didn’t leave but continued to follow clues, otherwise, he would face death by the Zhang Family’s chaotic blades if he returned with the green-clothed youth’s corpse.
Zhou Heng pressed forward, and another half-hour later, he finally rid himself of the pursuers completely.
He arrived at a stream, scooped so clear stream water and splashed it beside him, the cool sensation seemingly washing away his fatigue instantly. But at that mont, the feeling of unease ca again.
Like a lingering ghost!
Zhou Heng slowly stood up and said, "How long are you going to hide sneakily? Co out!"
"Ha ha ha, boy, I didn’t expect your sense to be so keen!" With a strange laugh, an elder hunched over appeared slowly from a bush, looking aged and about to fall at any mont, unable to get up again.
This was a Star King!
The elder no longer concealed his aura, with its fluctuations as vast as tides, the power of the stars echoed, and the aura seed almost tangible, capable of crushing a corner of the sky.
Zhou Heng was rely alert in his heart, he pretended with a sentence, not expecting the other party would truly reveal himself!
Yes, now they’ve reached the deep mountains where they can act recklessly!
Moreover, after the incident at Qingyang Academy, even if Liu Hu and the others ran back to report, they could pin Zhou Heng’s death on Qingyang Academy and the Zhang Family.
This old man, despite his stooped back, was unmistakably a solid human, probably not invited by Niu Gang—considering it’s more likely the other side would act on their own. As for Jin Huancheng, his father is rely a Star King; even if he could invite a Star King to make a move, the cost is too high, probably sothing Jin Huancheng can’t afford!
Thus, only one possibility remained!
"You are from the Pang Family, aren’t you?" Zhou Heng said calmly.
The old man paused slightly, then laughed grotesquely, "Young man guessed correctly, this old man Peng Ao, is the enshrined of the Pang Family! Since you already know this old man’s identity, why not surrender obediently?"
Zhou Heng laughed heartily, "Old geezer, you’ve been hiding in the dark, haven’t you? Since that’s the case, you should know that this young master doesn’t easily give up, if you want to accomplish your mission, then bring it on for a fight!"
"Truly won’t shed tears without seeing the coffin, re Bright Immortal, what worth is eighty-nine Divine Aspects, without entering the Stellar Realm, you’re just an ant!" Peng Ao said disdainfully, in his view, this task was extrely simple!
Of course, Zhou Heng’s previous actions slightly startled him, but just slightly, he simply needs to take him more seriously. Besides, he was alone, without any hostages for Zhou Heng to capture.
Zhou Heng’s face was solemn, but with no major fluctuations, he had fought for a long ti with a Stellar Realm Demon Tiger when first ascending to the Bright Realm with the Golden Dragon Empress, although Little Fire helped then, undeniably, he was the main force in the confrontation!
Now his cultivation level had soared, possessing the power of eighty-nine Divine Aspects, although defeating a Star King was as hard as climbing to the heavens, escaping wasn’t impossible!
He had several trump cards—the Chaos Heavenly Scripture, Sky-soaring Nine Forms, and the Purple Jade Dagger!
Chaos Heavenly Scripture combined with Five Elents Rune could barely withstand the bombardnt of a Star King, as for the Purple Jade Dagger... it could burst forth with the limit power of a Star King, the mighty force of ninety-nine stars!
Nine is the extre number, ninety-nine is the extre of extres, surpassing this to one hundred stars would transform into a qualitative change, transitioning beyond the Star King into the Star Sovereign!
Finally, his current power reached eighty-nine Divine Aspects, if he unleashed all the spiritual power within his body in an instant... there was at least a fifty percent chance of breaking the Star King’s defense!
With the Black Sword’s sharpness and murderous aura, if this strike was on a vital point, what worth is a Star King?
"Old geezer, all talk and no action is empty bravado, co over for a battle!" Zhou Heng’s fighting spirit soared to the clouds, he wasn’t inexperienced fighting a Star King, he had even personally slain one before.
"Caw caw, ignorant brat, the old man will show you what a difference in strength truly ans!" Although Peng Ao spoke extrely dismissively, he dared not have the slightest negligence, his whole body surged with spiritual power, his strength completely unleashed.
Buzz buzz buzz, forty-seven stars erged from his body, each star seed no larger than a house, all crimson-red, like blood-colored stars.
Powerful pressure spread, ordinary Bright Immortals upon contact would prostrate in submission!
Zhou Heng clenched his fists tightly, the Black Sword, Sky-soaring Nine Forms were his deadly attacks, clearly this was not the ti to reveal them, but Chaos Heavenly Scripture had already opened above his head, shedding five-colored brilliance, protecting him within.
"What treasure is this!" Peng Ao couldn’t help showing a surprised expression, he could sense a supre aura from this treasure, even though he was completely unqualified to delve into it, prolonged exposure might aid him in understanding profound heavenly mysteries!
"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand, better not to shatter your delusions!" Zhou Heng said with a faint smile, Chaos Heavenly Scripture gently trembled, its multicolored radiance increasingly divine and noble.
That statent was indeed truthful, as the secrets of the Heavenly Scripture are only circulated in the highest stratum of a realm, even if this old geezer is a Star King, traveling to the Immortal Realm, he could claim kingship, but it couldn’t change the fact that he belonged to the lower echelon in the Bright Realm.
—Traversing between realms is far too costly, what qualification does he have to descend? Since he cannot enter the Lower Realm, limited to this re Duyang Star of four elental stars, further being a minion of so no-account faction, what right does he have to know the Heavenly Scripture’s secrets?
But clearly, Peng Ao did not think so, a re Bright Immortal actually dared to mock him, this truly was unbearable!
Get rid of this brat, seize the treasure!
Otherwise if following the order, taking Zhou Heng back alive, the secret of this treasure absolutely could not be kept.
"Brat, you are unworthy to possess such a treasure, better hand it over to the old man!" Peng Ao finally made his move, his body flashed, forty-seven stars simultaneously blossod with dazzling starlight.
Zhou Heng’s entire body sank towards the ground, the opponent’s power was too strong, the attack hadn’t even truly landed yet, and it was already terrifying!
Fists clenched, he unyieldingly launched a counterattack!
Let him slaughter a Star King in the Bright Realm once more! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to vote for it with recomndation tickets and monthly tickets on Qidian, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian to read.)
