A Blind Swordsman's Sword Coffin-Chapter 366 – Nine Heavens Protects Its Master

Xuan Luo poured his golden vital force into the bow. With a flash of light in his right hand, a white bone arrow appeared. Countless strange and complicated blue patterns were carved on it. After injecting his vital force into it, the whole bone burst into flames.

He mounted the arrow onto the bow in one swift motion.

Li Guanqi became uneasy the instant the bow and arrow showed up.

Xuan Luo released the bowstring, and the white bone arrow shot toward Li Guanqi with a shrill whistle.

“Die!”

A bolt of lightning had descended from the sky, and Li Guanqi’s sword was already moving toward the lightning. With his body mid-swing, he had no way to dodge the arrow. Li Guanqi could already see joy and excitement in Xuan Luo’s eyes.

Suddenly, a dragon’s cry shook the skies.

Roar!

With a furious roar, Nine Heavens appeared in front of Li Guanqi. Its eyes flashed with golden light as it glared furiously at Xuan Luo. Then, it swung its tail at the white bone arrow with such force that dense spatial tears appeared around it.

When Xuan Luo saw the dragon, he cried in shock, “It’s a real dragon! How could there be a dragon in the Lower World? I see now... Mo Yanshan...”

Boom! Boom! Pfft!

Li Guanqi expected Nine Heavens’ tail to shatter the bone arrow, but it didn’t. Instead, the strange arrow pierced through its scales, burying itself halfway into the dragon’s flesh.

Roar!

Nine Heavens roared in pain, but no matter how it twisted, it could not fling the arrow out. The arrow even twisted, screwing itself deeper into its flesh.

Li Guanqi cut the lightning to pieces, then immediately rushed to Nine Heavens’ side, ignoring the shattered lightning that ripped through his flesh.

Xuan Luo snorted. “If the Divine Destruction Bone were so easy to remove, I would not have brought it with me.”

The arrow was a weapon forged by the Dark Raven Order using a special technique. The moment it pierced through a person’s body, it would burrow into their flesh and pierce through their heart, only stopping once it destroyed their divine soul.

Li Guanqi rushed to Nine Heavens’ side and supported the dragon with his left hand, gripping the Divine Destruction Bone with his right hand.

Sizzle sizzle!

A weird energy surged in his palm, making it sizzle. It was a peculiar sensation, not like fire, but icy cold. Seeing this, Nine Heavens recoiled. It didn’t want Li Guanqi to be harmed by whatever was happening.

But Li Guanqi cried sternly, “Do not move!”

Boom!

Vital force surged through him, and the Lightning Dragon Flame burned on his palm. His palm had turned into a bloody mess, but he did not let go. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

“Ahhhhh!”

Li Guanqi cried out, and as his blood surged through his body, it roared like dragons and elephants.

Terrifying power erupted from him, and the flames on his hand burned off the strange patterns carved on the bone.

Li Guanqi’s jugular bulged from his neck. He ignored the heavenly tribulation clouds above. Even though it looked like another bolt of lightning would descend in the next moment, he did not stop.

Li Guanqi pulled with all his might. His palm began to melt and stick to the bone arrow. Each time his grip slipped, bloody streaks appeared on the arrow.

Bit by bit, he pulled out the white bone arrow.

Li Guanqi’s reflection could be seen in Nine Heavens’ golden, reptilian eyes. Its eyes moistened, and it turned to glare at Xuan Luo, making no attempt to hide its killing intent.

Rumble‌!

Six consecutive bolts of lightning struck Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi could not protect himself. The layers of lightning he had wrapped around his skin as barriers tore like thin paper.

Li Guanqi gritted his teeth, letting the lightning strike his body. His skin immediately split open, spraying blood and flesh in all directions.

He could not let go. The moment he did, the white bone would burrow into Nine Heavens’ body.

Li Guanqi was trembling after being struck by six lightning bolts in a row. A green vein throbbed on his forehead, and his skin was charred black.

For unknown reasons, Nine Heavens did not attract the heavenly tribulation’s attention, so the lightning struck only Li Guanqi.

Pfft!

The white bone arrow was out.

Li Guanqi swayed, then his vision went dark. Even with his resilient body, six heavenly tribulation lightning strikes were more than he could withstand.

Nine Heavens gazed at Xuan Luo but decided against attacking.

In a flash, it went to catch Li Guanqi.

Far away, Xuan Luo squinted.

What a frightening guy... He pulled out the Divine Destruction Bone with his bare hands! And I think... He’s the first to have ever done it. But, with his current condition, I don’t think he’ll survive the heavenly tribulation.

The nascent soul within Li Guanqi had stopped its transformation. His soul, which had begun merging with his nascent soul, trembled violently and even started to disperse.

The nascent soul’s glow dimmed. If Li Guanqi did not wake up, everything would be for nothing, and he would die from the Divine Transformation Realm heavenly tribulation.

The storm clouds in the sky above rolled vigorously as an even more powerful attack brewed.

Nine Heavens looked at the unconscious Li Guanqi on its back and let out a low roar, trying to wake him up. Since Li Guanqi did not respond, it looked up at the clouds with a determined look.

Xuan Luo was astonished. That dragon isn’t thinking of helping him pass the heavenly tribulation, is it?! Is it going to endure a double heavenly tribulation just to help him finish the metamorphosis of his nascent soul?

With that thought, Xuan Luo immediately mounted another arrow.

He drew the bowstring back as far as it would go, targeting Li Guanqi with his last Divine Destruction Bone.

When Nine Heavens sensed the odd energy, it turned to face toward Xuan Luo and shielded Li Guanqi with its body. Rising slowly into the air, it glared at Xuan Luo and roared.

Xuan Luo laughed. This time, he drew the bow with enough force to pierce clean through the dragon’s body.

Buzz! Whoosh!

The arrow was bathed in golden light. As it flew, it sliced through space like a blade, leaving a long, pitch-black tear in its wake.

Nine Heavens’ eyes flashed coldly as countless tendrils of lightning gathered on its claw. Then it slammed its claw against the arrow.

The moment the arrow collided with Nine Dragons’ claw, the arrow shattered inch by inch.

Nine Heavens clamped its claw around the bone, crushing it into dust.

Xuan Luo’s eyes widened in shock. His Adam’s apple trembled as he muttered to himself, “Is that the strength of a dragon... No! I need to report this! This tier-five dragon is enough of a reason for them to send Earth-tier people!”

He tried to contact the Dark Raven Order, but the surrounding space had been sealed, preventing any jade slip messages from being sent out.

Rumble!

The clouds above sensed that Nine Heavens planned to intervene. The thick lightning bolts grew even more violent.

Nine Heavens charged up toward the descending lightning.

Just as Xuan Luo expected, the heavenly tribulation doubled in might. But the roaring dragon did not hesitate at all.

Multiple lightning bolts struck Nine Heavens. Countless purple dragon scales fell.

Golden blood splattered. Nine Heavens frantically grabbed the lightning bolts and swallowed them.

Then it fell from the sky.

Boom!

Nine Heavens slammed into a towering mountain. Its eyes were glazed over, and its form wobbled, but it slowly began to rise. Wrapping itself around the mountain peak, it roared at the heavens.

Then Li Guanqi, lying on its back, twitched as the scattered electrical arcs touched him.

His eyes opened slowly.
