The sharp light was cold and dazzling, swiftly and fiercely, in the blink of an eye, it was right in front of him.
"It's an arrow!"
Qing Yu's figure suddenly transford into a shadow, the sharp arrow passing through the phantom, letting out a sharp hiss in the sky behind.
'In the Southern Border, is there still an expert in archery?'
In the worldly society, those who use bows and arrows are few and far between, let alone an archery Divine Communication Expert, which is unheard of. But today, Qing Yu has witnessed this unparalleled skill in archery.
"Bang—"
Another bang resounded, several sharp beams broke through the air, this ti it was multiple arrows.
Four sharp arrows, either curved or direct hits, combined in a strategic array, attacking from all eight directions.
Qing Yu's figure continually changed, moving left and right to avoid three of the arrow shadows, but the fourth arrow was unavoidable.
Ultimately, it wasn't his own body, his power was limited. Even though Qing Yu's Primordial Spirit could detect the arrow's path, the limitations of the body were a cracking weakness.
"Splitting Universe Majesty."
The Unforeseen Blade swept up the mysterious light, poised in a critical mont, it counterattacked with composure, the Sky-splitting Force rotating to strike the sharp arrow. Qing Yu extended his hand, grasping the arrow deprived of Qi Force, halting his steps.
The previously sharp arrow, after having its Qi Force dissipate, was rely an ordinary stone arrow. On the plain, undecorated stone arrow, three unfamiliar characters were engraved, which must be the na of the arrow's master.
"To think the Southern Border has such an archer, it truly surprises ." Qing Yu laughed lightly, looking towards the direction from which the sharp arrows ca.
Although he did not recognize these strange characters, Qing Yu knew they were the unique Witch's Text from the Southern Border. With this, there was no doubt where the archer ca from.
No response ca from the shadows in the distance, but a sharp aura capable of shattering mountains and stones was amassing, the Qi chanism tightly locking onto Qing Yu.
That archer was already drawing the bow, the next arrow promising to have the force of 'shocking the heavens'.
"This feeling like a thorn in one's back, is truly the Arrow Intent of a fine arrow." Sensing the sharp intent that seed to pierce the body at any mont, even Qing Yu couldn't help but praise.
The archer's Arrow Intent tightly locked onto Qing Yu, no matter how he dodged, he couldn't avoid the next arrow.
Even though Qing Yu's power was greatly limited due to possession, being able to lock onto him still made the archer comndable.
Given the current situation, communicating was not an option. The archer had no intention of revealing himself, trying to extract information from him was out of the question.
With that being the case...
Qing Yu took a step forward, approaching the three pinned to the ground by Xuanyin Sword Energy.
He couldn't let the opponent continue amassing power like this, otherwise even the Sword Maiden's body might not be preserved. Her body was already gravely injured, though Qing Yu had stabilized the injuries after possession, if the archer amassed power to the extre, he couldn't guarantee the Sword Maiden's body would remain unhard.
Therefore, he had to force the opponent to release the arrow early.
"Bang—"
As soon as Qing Yu took a step, the opponent released an arrow.
The sharp arrow pierced through space, possessing the power to shatter mountains and stones, and carved a long crack through the earth as the sharp Qi leaked out.
As the main target of the sharp arrow, Qing Yu felt an intense sense of threat.
"The Wave of Splitting Universe."
The Unreal Demon Sword soared and spiraled, the Qi Force surging like tides, continuously, possessing the power to split the sky, shocking and awe-inspiring.
The stone arrow piercing through the air struck the Qi tide, the arrow energy capable of cutting through rivers was heavily bombarded and split. But the amassed force still allowed the stone arrow to stubbornly pierce through the Qi tide, reaching the sword edge Qing Yu held in front of him.
"Ding—"
The arrowhead contacted the blade of the Unforeseen, producing a crisp sound. Afterwards, the stone arrow turned into a pile of dust, scattered by the gusts of wind.
Despite the arrow energy being exceptional, the quality of the arrow was too poor, unable to withstand the fierce impact, and prematurely shattered.
Qing Yu had intercepted this arrow. However, the opponent's goal was also achieved.
The three pinned to the ground by sword Qi now lay lifeless, their wide eyes devoid of any spirit.
They died, just now, killed by the triggered restriction.
The archer's goal was to rescue these three, but if he found he couldn't save them, then to kill them. When the archer realized this arrow couldn't harm Qing Yu, he triggered the restriction inside the three, sealing their fate.
"Such decisiveness, to abandon three True Pill Realm Peak experts without hesitation, the ambitions of Southern Border must be significant." Qing Yu declared.
Abandoning a benefit for a bigger one.
These three had the potential to break through to Divine Communication, among them likely erging one or even multiple Divine Communication powerhouses. Abandoning martial artists with such potential indicates that the Southern Border's plot far exceeds these three.
[Sword Maiden, how did you co across these three?] Qing Yu asked the Sword Maiden through Thought.
[Reporting to Mirror Master, they ca to us proactively, seeming to aim at our forces for interception.]
[Interception?] Qing Yu questioned in surprise.
[Indeed, though I am of the Southern Border, I grew up in the Central Plains, holding a position in the Southern Border but not being trusted. This is evident from the fact that they never sought after I was captured.
The three of them, after recognizing , had the intent of capturing . It seems they intended to inquire about Mirror Master or other matters from .]
As the Sword Maiden spoke, mories flashed through her mind, being read by Qing Yu.
Just as she said, these three appeared to aim for interception and eradication, and after recognizing the Sword Maiden, developed the intent of capturing her alive.
'If that's the case, then the others responsible for this area might also be in grave danger. The Southern Border is involved, and on the opposing side.'
If so, the losses incurred by the Taoist sect could be far greater than anticipated. Originally, Qing Yu planned to use this opportunity to counter-encircle the Buddhists, but now it seems, at best, it would be a pyrrhic victory or a stalemate.
In the final monts of the plan, an unexpected variable arose. It must be noted, the Southern Border's timing is excellent, significantly weakening the Taoist sect's advantage.
After a mont's thought, Qing Yu instructed the Sword Maiden: [Sword Maiden, order a retreat. Also, spread the word about the collusion between the Buddhists and the Southern Border Witch Clan, letting the whole world know that the people of Southern Border have entered the Central Plains.]
[Understood.]
No matter whether the Buddhists truly colluded with the Southern Border Witch Clan, the fact remains that the Southern Border aided the Buddhists. Regardless, throwing bla is never wrong.
When dealing with enemies, you must utilize everything you can, attacking from all angles. Buddhist temples are widespread with nurous followers, and a significant reputation, making this an opportune mont to strike at their image.
Moreover, if the people of Southern Border wish to play mysterious, Qing Yu will reveal their movents. Whatever the enemy wants to do, is what we must stop. Whatever the enemy doesn't want, is what we must do.
Since the people of Southern Border have shown themselves, eventually they will be fully exposed. Aliens in the Central Plains, do not hide easily.
