I Can Use Myriad Divine Abilities-Chapter 285: Consecutive Slashes

Clang!

The longsword suddenly unsheathed, the dazzling sword light instantly illuminated Dong Peng’s eyes.

In his eyes, there was an excited ferocity!

The direction of the sword wielded by this Tier Four Martial Artist was straight at Zhang Yuan’s right shoulder.

As long as the scapula was pierced, then even with his innate divine power, Zhang Yuan couldn’t wield even a tiny bit.

He would be completely crippled.

In fact, what Dong Peng really wanted to pierce was Zhang Yuan’s throat!

He had long been displeased with Zhang Yuan.

Although Dong Peng was a direct descendant of the Dong Clan, the Dong Family wasn’t a noble family in Xia Ruins. Therefore, to rise to Tier Four and become an Outer Hall Guardian of the Celestial King Hall, he put in countless hardships and efforts.

Dong Peng deeply understood the benefits of having someone cover you, of having a reliable backer.

So when Xuan Xin asked Dong Peng to deal with Zhang Yuan, he agreed without hesitation.

Zhang Yuan, without any background and all alone, was already, at a young age, on par in achievements with him.

Moreover, he had gained the favor of both Xuan Cheng and Xun Lingling.

The former didn’t matter much, but the latter really made Dong Peng discontent.

How was he worse than Zhang Yuan? Why couldn’t he win Lingling’s favor?

Dong Peng dreamed of climbing into Xun Lingling’s bed, becoming her intimate guest, and then enjoying the Xun Family’s connections and resources.

Tier Five would no longer be a dream!

What he hated most was pouring his efforts in vain while Zhang Yuan obtained it effortlessly and discarded it like a worn shoe.

Thinking of this, Dong Peng infused the longsword with even more True Qi.

The sword tip spat out half a foot of qi aura!

Meanwhile, Chen Zian, who lunged at Zhang Yuan alongside Dong Peng, was half a step behind, clearly seeing his colleague’s crazy killing intent.

He couldn’t help but shake his head secretly.

"Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun, who did you provoke that you shouldn’t have, why did you offend Xuan Xin?"

Chen Zian thought to himself, as his right hand, clawed, fiercely grabbed at Zhang Yuan’s left shoulder.

Though Zhang Yuan was hit by the Sealing Talisman, unable to harness the Dantian True Qi, a martial artist’s Qi Blood Strength wouldn’t be affected and he still possessed basic combat abilities.

Despite always walking alone and rarely interacting with other Outer Hall Guardians, Zhang Yuan was actually quite renowned within the Celestial King Hall.

His combat records were verifiable!

Therefore, even though Chen Zian felt he had certain victory, he dared not show any slack.

He attacked with full force!

He didn’t think that in such a situation, Zhang Yuan had any chance of a comeback.

But what Chen Zian never expected was, just as Zhang Yuan seemed to have fallen into the trap, incapable of struggling, Zhang Yuan suddenly lifted his head.

He had just leapt high into the air, meeting Zhang Yuan’s gaze across the distance.

Chen Zian was startled in horror, the hair on his body standing on end, his Tier Four Martial Artist’s keen instincts screamed a frantic warning.

There Zhang Yuan stood on a rock by the riverside, not showing the slightest fear or retreat, but instead, a hint of disdain and sarcasm in his eyes.

This was definitely not the expression of someone facing a desperate situation!

Chen Zian realized something wasn’t right, but like an arrow already on the bowstring, he couldn’t not release, and at this point, there was no retreat.

Then, a scorching sword aura suddenly flashed in front of Chen Zian.

Zhang Yuan made his move.

Time seemed to freeze at that instant.

Chen Zian’s vision was occupied by intense scarlet, making even breathing extremely difficult.

The Qi Blood rushing within his body froze!

The Sealing Talisman is ineffective!!

At this moment, Chen Zian could only wish to curse out loud.

When Xuan Xin asked him to help deal with Zhang Yuan, he praised Master Hui Neng to the skies.

Claiming that as soon as his martial uncle made a move, Zhang Yuan would have no choice but to obediently surrender. Even if he could struggle a bit, he would still be easily subdued by his Tier Four prowess.

Chen Zian knew the power of the Sealing Talisman and was very aware of who Master Hui Neng was.

But he never imagined that Xuan Xin’s guarantee of utmost certainty would fail at the critical moment.

Zhang Yuan’s recent strike wasn’t something that someone with a sealed dantian could unleash!

Though separated by four or five steps of distance, Chen Zian felt as if he suddenly fell into a chasm of death, fear within growing wildly like weeds after rain.

A soul-reaping strike!

His fighting spirit was completely extinguished by Zhang Yuan’s saber momentum, instinctively retracting his claw, and exhaustively trying to sink downwards.

Hoping he could dodge this deadly strike!

The next moment, Chen Zian’s feet landed on the ground.

His vision returned to normal.

Unharmed?

Chen Zian was a bit dazed at being completely intact.

Bang!

At that moment, a corpse fell heavily before him, blood gushing from the snapped neck.

Witnessing this scene, Chen Zian’s pupils immediately contracted.

Then he saw a familiar head roll to his feet!

The face as pale as paper, eyes wide open in death, it was none other than Dong Peng!

Dong Peng was dead.

Chen Zian could hardly believe his own eyes.

A dignified Outer Hall Guardian of the Celestial King Hall, a Tier Four True Qi Martial Artist, a member of Xia Ruins’ Dong Family, Dong Peng was dead just like that?

Chen Zian finally understood.

The reason he was unharmed was that Zhang Yuan’s counterattack targeted Dong Peng.

And Dong Peng couldn’t withstand Zhang Yuan’s single strike.

Just one strike, huh!

When did Tier Four Martial Artists become like lambs to the slaughter, to be so easily killed?

Chen Zian suddenly looked up, seeing above him a blazing sun-like sword aura wrapped in scorching true wind, enveloping him entirely.

"Ah~"

Chen Zian let out a beast-like howl, exhaustingly swinging his fists to meet the sword aura that slashed towards him.

Most of his martial arts were on his hands, with a record of having killed two Tier Four Martial Artists consecutively with just his fists, he had long trained his fists to withstand weapons without damage.

At the moment of life and death, this Tier Four Martial Artist unleashed his full power, Innate True Qi congealed in both hands, Power vibrating and filling his arms, his clenched fists shining with a metallic gleam!

Yet when Chen Zian’s fists collided with the sword aura, they were like mere paper, instantly torn to shreds.

Failing to stop it even for a breath’s time.

Not just that, the scorching sword aura smoothly proceeded downwards, shredding both arms before slashing into his chest.

Plop!

Chen Zian’s whole body trembled, opening his mouth to say something but failing to produce any sound.

He lowered his head, a faint, grim smile appearing on his face.

His eyes showed utter despair.

Shouldn’t have come!

With engulfing regret, this Tier Four Martial Artist’s consciousness fell into an endless abyss.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan, after consecutively killing two Outer Hall Guardians, landed steadily on the ground.

Facing Xuan Xin and Master Hui Neng, the uncle and nephew pair.

The General-Slaying Saber in his hand still vibrated, conveying its thirst and excitement for slaughter!

Xuan Xin’s expression drastically changed, retreating in terror involuntarily.

Master Hui Neng’s white brows twitched, his expression extremely sullen.

The look in his eyes towards Zhang Yuan was no longer indifferent, but filled with unprecedented gravity!
