Chapter 271: Sword Pellet
Wang Chen had spent more than half a month underground in Thunderstorm Valley, mastering the Five Suns Thunder to the level of perfect mastery.
The Five Suns Thunder was a high-level Qi Training spell, and among the higher levels, it was particularly challenging to cultivate. He had expended over a thousand points of Virtue to achieve this mastery.
Its power was naturally immense.
This spell could be applied to artifacts or used independently to strike one or multiple targets.
When Wang Chen unleashed it, he did so with full force!
A barrage of destructive lightning ruthlessly struck the unprepared Wei Hall cultivators.
Those without protective artifacts, and those who failed to activate their Spirit Light Shield in time, were the first to suffer. Some were instantly reduced to charred remains, while others fell from the sky, screaming in agony.
Wang Chen snapped his fingers and reaped a wave of Heavenly Merit!
However, the Perfected Level Five Suns Thunder consumed a vast amount of mana, and this single strike drained one-third of his mana reserves, allowing him to cast it at most two more times.
But the results were remarkable.
With the Five Suns Thunder crashing down, more than half of the Wei Hall cultivators were either dead or injured, significantly diminishing their combat ability.
The cultivator suspected to be Lord Jin Snake Jun managed to summon a golden bell Dharma image above his head just as the lightning struck, absorbing the deadly blow.
He let out a strange cry, suddenly raised his wrist to slap his forehead, and spat out a gleaming silver pellet.
Sword Pellet!
Wang Chen instantly recognized the origin of this silver pellet.
His heart was filled with astonishment.
The Sword Pellet was formed from sword energy or sword intent and differed from ordinary artifacts; it was a unique item.
Essentially, a Sword Pellet was also a flying sword. Once activated, it would unfold into a blade of pure energy, capable of inflicting damage equal to that of an actual flying ship, and it was even faster.
The Sword Pellet could merge with refined gold energy and could be nurtured within one’s body, making it extremely precious and rare.
Lord Jin Snake Jun, with a cultivation level of the ninth level of Qi Training, unexpectedly possessed a Sword Pellet, indicating his extraordinary status!
But to Wang Chen, he held only one identity.
That was the enemy!
Swish!
Wang Chen decisively thrust out his sword fingers. A sharp Metal Finger energy instantly dashed ten zhang, accurately hitting the Sword Pellet just released by Lord Jin Snake Jun.
Clang!
Accompanied by a crisp sound of collision, the still-closed Sword Pellet was knocked away.
The greatest strength of Wang Chen’s strike lay in its precision; hitting the Sword Pellet, which was merely the size of a longan, with his Metal Finger Technique from a distance was something most cultivators could not achieve unless by sheer luck.
The Sword Pellet, being a unique item, suffered minimal damage even when struck by Wang Chen’s Perfected Level Metal Finger Technique.
However, Lord Jin Snake Jun lost control of it in that instant.
What Wang Chen wanted was that very opportunity.
He swiftly waved his robe sleeve, and the Wind and Thunder Sword shot out, accompanied by a booming thunder sound, charging towards the surviving Wei Hall cultivators.
These cultivators were quite valiant; despite losing over half of their companions, they not only remained composed but even launched a counterattack against Wang Chen.
However, when the Wind and Thunder Sword effortlessly pierced through a cultivator protected by a Spirit Light Shield, creating a bloody large hole in their heart, the other cultivators instinctively chose to flee.
Although Wang Chen wanted to keep them all, he knew very well who his true opponent was.
The Wind and Thunder Sword flew back, its blade aiming directly at Lord Jin Snake Jun!
At this moment, Lord Jin Snake Jun had regained control over his Sword Pellet. The continuous attacks had made his eyes bloodshot. He exerted his full force to command the severed blade of energy and clashed with Wang Chen.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Wind and Thunder Sword and the Sword Pellet collided three times, producing sparkles of golden light.
The Sword Pellet of Lord Jin Snake Jun proved to be just as formidable as the second-grade Wind and Thunder Sword, with both sides evenly matched!
"Lightning come!"
Wang Chen shouted loudly, unleashing a Five Suns Thunder upon Lord Jin Snake Jun’s head.
The golden bell Dharma image above Lord Jin Snake Jun’s head shattered instantaneously. He wobbled, blood spilling from his mouth and nose.
Clang!
The Sword Pellet was knocked away by the Wind and Thunder Sword!
This cold-hearted young cultivator finally panicked.
He quickly flew backward, creating distance between himself and Wang Chen, and pulled out two talismans from his storage bag.
He intended to escape.
But Wang Chen would never allow him to flee right under his nose!
The Wind and Thunder Sword traced a long Taoist arc in the air, its blade surrounded by lightning, swiftly catching up to Lord Jin Snake Jun.
The sword tip aimed at his heart!
Lord Jin Snake Jun was suddenly horrified and screamed, "I am…"
Pfft!
The Wind and Thunder Sword broke through Lord Jin Snake Jun’s Protection, severing his left arm.
This strike should have pierced Lord Jin Snake Jun’s heart, but at the last moment, he turned his body and used his left arm to block Wang Chen’s fatal blow.
Under Wang Chen’s relentless assault, Lord Jin Snake Jun could hardly control his flying artifact, and he began to plummet helplessly.
The returning Wind and Thunder Sword circled around Wang Chen, its dim lightning swelling once more.
Then it shot toward the plummeting Lord Jin Snake Jun!
At that moment, Lord Jin Snake Jun was utterly panicked, unable to recall his Sword Pellet, forced to watch the Wind and Thunder Sword charge toward him, his mind clouded by the shadow of death.
"Spare him!"
Just then, a soft and charming voice reached Wang Chen’s ears, filled with strong allure.
However, Wang Chen remained unfazed, his dark eyes flashing with intensity.
Pfft!
Lord Jin Snake Jun’s head soared up into the sky.
【Heavenly Merit +9】
Wang Chen reached out to seize the storage bag tied to the fallen enemy’s waist, his left hand grabbing the returning Wind and Thunder Sword.
He turned around, composed, to face a female cultivator who had just arrived.
She appeared to be only eighteen or nineteen, stunningly beautiful with graceful features. Her slender figure was concealed beneath a flowing dress, and she gracefully stepped like a Cloud Lotus.
Xin Han’s new warm bed servant, a female cultivator from the Harmony Sect and the secret controller of Dongwu Town…
Wang Chen immediately guessed her identity without need for introduction.
Hu Meiniang!
For some reason, although Hu Meiniang looked delicate and soft, she emanated a strong sense of threat to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen did not rush to attack; instead, he began to draw the pure spiritual energy contained within the Heavenly Net for Exorcising Evil.
He quickly restored his mana!
And surprisingly, Hu Meiniang did not make a move either. She looked at the headless corpse on the ground and sighed, saying, "Why are you always so disobedient?"
She raised her head, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Wang Chen, "Wang Chen, my younger brother is rude, please forgive any offense."
Wang Chen felt speechless.
He had just severed Lord Jin Snake Jun’s head, yet Hu Meiniang was not only unaffected but also placed the blame on her younger brother.
What did this female cultivator from the Harmony Sect want?
As his mindset raced, Wang Chen calmly asked, "Do you know me?"
Hu Meiniang smiled slightly, "I have long heard your name."
Her smile truly was captivating and enchanting!
