I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 243 - 227 Reverse Slash Reach Profound
Chapter 243: Chapter 227 Reverse Slash Reach Profound!
Chapter 243: Chapter 227 Reverse Slash Reach Profound!
The black-robed man was momentarily unable to keep up, not understanding why Chen Yuan suddenly shifted the conversation to something about ‘Dragon Roar’.
Seeing the man before him apparently bewildered, Chen Yuan did not answer, but instead moved his hand to the hilt of his saber. In fact, since entering the inn where Nie Qi Yun was staying,
Chen Yuan had anticipated a certain possibility. He had numerous enemies; perhaps this was a fishing operation targeting him, yet he still followed behind Nie Qi Yun.
Firstly, his strength had grown several times over. In his view, he already possessed the power to battle higher-level adversaries. Secondly, he considered that it might only be speculation.
It was impossible for there to be no warning at all, he wouldn’t let Nie Qi Yun go just because of speculation.
When that Breaking Gang Arrow was shot out, Chen Yuan finally confirmed his earlier guess, this was indeed a premeditated fishing operation to assassinate him,
and he was the fish!
Suddenly feeling a powerful sense of danger, the danger brought with it opportunity as well. Following the previous patterns, Chen Yuan now should have met the Child of Qi Fortune that belonged to him.
The greatly needed Dragon Qi should also have a lead by now.
Therefore, when Chen Yuan took cover on the ground, he intended to launch a surprise attack.
Unexpectedly, the other party had already guessed that he was unharmed and learned some information from his words. Even if he sensed danger and chose not to leave Nanling Prefecture,
he would still be ambushed.
Because the only person he feared was Tao Qingyuan. As long as he wasn’t around, there would be no problem dealing with him.
Of course, the Seven Killings Hall indeed possessed such audacity, for the imperial court couldn’t locate where its Mountain Gate was, at most they could only eliminate a few assassins, which wouldn’t cause much loss to the Seven Killings Hall.
There were many past examples. The assassins from the Seven Killings Hall acted unpredictably, some disliked assassination and preferred to fight openly, while others would massacre an entire family when they killed.
Compared to those, the assassin Chen Yuan encountered was quite normal.
He first investigated, then step by step used other means to draw either him or Tao Qingyuan out, then planned to use a Breaking Gang Arrow to cripple half their capacity, making the rest much easier.
Unfortunately for them, Chen Yuan was no ordinary person. Though the Breaking Gang Arrow was powerful, it failed to penetrate the Heart Protecting Dragon Scale.
There really wasn’t much to be said between Chen Yuan and the assassin before him. He completed his mission using Chen Yuan’s head and obtained guidance through his Qi Fortune.
From the moment the other appeared, he had speculated, and when the man admitted to knowing about his attempt to ambush, Chen Yuan naturally opened his Heavenly Eye.
Uh-huh…
Just as expected, the other party indeed possessed Qi Fortune.
And Chen Yuan needed that Qi Fortune!
Indeed, even if he did not seek out actively, those with Qi Fortune would meet him in various ways. These were all old experiences…
These thoughts only occupied a very short moment. After Chen Yuan finished saying, “Have you ever heard the Dragon Roar?” before the black-robed man could react.
The next moment.
A loud Dragon Roar filled the sky, soaring into the clouds.
The terrifying Xuanyuan Gang Qi spanned over ten zhang, instantly slashing towards the black-robed man. Once he took action, it was his most thorough killing move.
Confronting a Reach Profound expert, Chen Yuan believed he could fight one, but he had never let go of any vigilance. Compared to Gang Condensing Martial Artists, Reach Profound Martial Artists were much stronger after all.
The Gang Qi exuded endless killing intent, locking directly onto the position of the man in black.
It was as if in the world, that strand of Gang Qi was all that existed.
“Hmph.”
Seeing that Chen Yuan did not hesitate to make a move, the man in black was not overly surprised or puzzled, but he was curious as to how bold Chen Yuan was, not thinking of escaping, but wanting to battle instead.
Although he had only recently reached the Reach Profound realm, he certainly wasn’t comparable to a Heavenly Gang Martial Artist.
His figure retreated in a flash, creating a distance of several dozen zhang, then, lifting his black robe, he revealed a jet-black bow on his back.
The bow, dark as ink, was engraved with various runes, which were the Killing Arrays condensed by an Array Master from the Jianghu, with the most powerful being the Breaking Gang Array.
Before his breakthrough to Reach Profound, he was already one of the Seven Killings Hall’s top Copper Token assassins, claiming the lives of countless Gang Condensing Martial Artists, including some within the top hundred of the Hidden Dragon List.
Upon breaking through to the Reach Profound, he was automatically promoted to a Silver Token assassin of the Seven Killings Hall, and Chen Yuan was his first Silver Token mission.
It must be said that the Seven Killings Hall’s assassin tailor-made for Chen Yuan was indeed powerful, with a Reach Profound Cultivation that was unmatched by Gang Condensing Martial Artists.
Nonetheless, considering Chen Yuan’s strength and his frequent surges in power, the Seven Killings Hall determined that Chen Yuan had plenty of hidden strength, and Copper Token assassins would have no advantage at all.
Only a Silver Token assassin could eliminate Chen Yuan without any mishaps.
As the man in black drew his bow, a blood-red arrow controlled by Gang Qi landed in his hand, and then, the bow was drawn and ready to fire.
“Break!”
The man in black roared lowly, and immediately released his fingers. A blood arrow, much like the one shot towards Chen Yuan before, violently collided with the Xuanyuan Gang Qi.
“Boom!”
A muffled sound echoed between heaven and earth. The arrow exploded, the Gang Qi dissipated, waves of heat swept out, and dust on the ground billowed. Chen Yuan’s full-powered slash,
and the arrow of the man in black, both dissipated.
At this moment, the confrontation between the two had surpassed the bounds of Gang Condensation and reached the Reach Profound level.
Chen Yuan, facing this situation, did not show any surprise or doubt. His ‘Dragon Roar’ was strong, but he was dealing with a Silver Token assassin from the Seven Killings Hall.
The mutual annihilation was the best outcome.
However, this did not mean Chen Yuan was frightened, but on the contrary, the sudden appearance of a Reach Profound mighty warrior brought Chen Yuan tremendous pressure, at the same time, his fighting spirit soared higher and higher.

His blood surged within him like rolling rivers, with the Vajra Glaze Body Technique fully activated, a flash of dark golden light covered his entire body in an instant.
Even the drifting strands of his hair seemed to undergo some mysterious changes.
‘Endless Killing Path’ unleashed, a rich killing intent filled Chen Yuan’s spirit, his eyes gleaming with a red light; from a distance, Chen Yuan, standing in the void, resembled a devil incarnate.
“Indeed, it’s the Buddhist body refinement!”
The man in the black robe was not surprised; these things were already understood by the Seven Killings Hall, and even they shared the same speculation with Fa Nan of Gold Mountain Monastery: this Body Refining Technique could very well be the famous Vajra Glaze Body from Jianghu.
“However, no matter how strong the body, it cannot withstand my Blood Arrow!”
The corners of the black-robed man’s mouth curled up in a cruel smile beneath his shadow. Known as Blood Arrow within the Seven Killings Hall, his archery skills were divine, having received the true teachings of a certain Core Realm expert within the hall.
His archery skill certainly ranked among the top. What followed would be to reach the Transformation Realm, understand the Conception, for his power to truly skyrocket.
“The second arrow!”
The black-robed man drew his bow and notched an arrow, focusing intently, his entire spirit zeroed in on Chen Yuan as if there was a strange connection between them.
And this sensation, Chen Yuan could also perceive it, as if being intently watched by a soaring eagle with sharp eyes, hunted as prey.
Yan Qing below knew that the situation was not within his capabilities to interfere, and he hurriedly retreated far away to observe the battle.
“Die!”
Chen Yuan pointed his long saber forward, the protective Gang Qi around his body expanded, and beneath his feet seemed to be an invisible barrier; with a fierce stomp, he leapt even higher, from above he aimed to cleave the man in black in two.
The massive sword light, dozens of meters huge, blocked the man in black’s entire field of vision.
But he was not the slightest bit panicked; following his own rhythm, he suddenly shot out an arrow, as if the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy was stirred and then wrapped around the shaft of the arrow.
With a ‘boom,’ the sword light that Chen Yuan had slashed out shattered just like before. Then, the second arrow was fired with even greater might.
This time, Chen Yuan’s sword light didn’t mutually annihilate with it; the arrow directly shattered the Gang Qi. Chen Yuan’s eyebrows lifted as he held the saber horizontally before him with both hands.
“Bang!”
A terrifyingly powerful force acted upon the blade; at the moment of impact, Chen Yuan felt as if his Yan Ling Saber could hardly bear the burden.
“Cling!”
The saber rang out, Chen Yuan deflected the Blood Arrow but was also knocked back several meters.
Looking at the shallow marks on the blade of the Yan Ling Saber, Chen Yuan’s eyebrows furrowed. This was a treasured saber gifted by Zhang Xuan, mixed with several rare materials and highly precious.
He hadn’t expected that it would show signs of failing to support his use at just this stage.
‘Continue!’
Chen Yuan silently resolved that in the instant he was knocked back, he quickly reacted. The opponent’s archery was exceptional, and coupled with the strengthening from that bow, truly formidable,
but he must not let himself get too close, otherwise, Chen Yuan would definitely hammer him to death.
The enemy also seemed to realize this and didn’t allow Chen Yuan to get close, just kept shooting out the Blood Arrows, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy pulsating, and the arrows seemed to be inscribed with formations, getting enhanced by the Primordial Energy.
It has to be said, this was probably the biggest trouble Chen Yuan had encountered. His past opponents were at most only slightly stronger than him, defeating them was no problem.
But this time, the Seven Killings Hall assassin facing Chen Yuan was an entire major realm stronger than him.
And there was the divine archery skill.
Big trouble!
This was a thought in Chen Yuan’s mind.
No matter where he attacked from, the opponent’s Blood Arrows seemed to be equipped with radar, even capable of predicting his next move.
One step ahead!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Three consecutive blasts of terrifying noise exploded, a heatwave disheveled Chen Yuan’s originally tied-up hair, leaving it flowing freely.
“Roar!”
With another Dragon Roar, Chen Yuan poured in all his power, the Blood Evil Saber continuously surged with Extreme Yin Blood Evil, and the Xuan Yang Divine Crystal replenished Chen Yuan’s consumption at an extremely fast pace.
Following a bitter battle, Chen Yuan even gained some control over the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy.
“Kill!”
Chen Yuan, his eyes bloodshot with killing intent, after several head-on clashes, was now less than eighty meters away from the man in black, close at hand.
And the Seven Killings Hall assassin also seemed to panic slightly, constantly retreating, his hand frenetically drawing the bow, with arrows becoming a bit urgent.
Amid the tremors of the Dragon Roar between heaven and earth, the Blood Arrow shattered, Chen Yuan successfully deflected the Blood Arrow racing towards his chest, took a step forward, and held the saber with both hands.
‘Endless Killing Path!’
Gathering all the strength from his killing aura and Evil Qi, surpassing the Dragon Roar in might, Chen Yuan successfully delivered the strike.
What of Reach Profound? At that moment, Chen Yuan’s thoughts became clear, his intent set on cutting down the foe before him!
