Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1494: Chapter 1493: The Battle King Plays the Zither!

A duel between powerhouses often results in a victory in the blink of an eye, even determining life and death in one move.

Qin Kongdao was plotted against by the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes, mistakenly entering the ”Ancient Killing Saint Array,” and was swallowed by the powerful dark vortex within. Despite Qin Kongdao using ancient mysterious runes to resist the power of the dark vortex, he was still injured. This highlights the terrifying nature of the Ancient Killing Saint Array, and with the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes being demons within the formation, they inherently stand invincible, already powerful and terrifying, now presenting an unshakable feeling!

They made their move. The Immortal Island’s Twin Princes took advantage of the innate favorable conditions and unleashed their brothers’ supreme divine power, called the ”Double Bird Hunting Skill.” This divine skill originated from the Ancient Times, boundlessly terrifying, using one’s life-bound essence blood to nurture a ferocious bird in a cave. This ferocious bird grows stronger than its master. People in ancient times once cultivated such divine arts, but unfortunately, when the ferocious bird became stronger than its master, it was a dangerous time for the master, who might be countered by the nurtured ferocious bird.

Once the Double Bird Hunting Skill was unleashed, not only did the ferocious birds nurtured by the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes roar towards Qin Kongdao, but also the dark vortex within the ”Ancient Killing Saint Array” simultaneously crushed towards Qin Kongdao, aiming to eliminate him with one deadly blow!

Facing such strong pressure, everyone present felt that if this force rushed out of the ”Ancient Killing Saint Array,” not only the Ancient Dojo but the entire Penglai Fairy Island, indeed the whole Earth, would vanish. It was truly astonishing. These demon-like Immortal Island’s Twin Princes were incredibly powerful, no wonder in their era of fame, any mentioning of them brought fear to all legacies.

War King Seal!

Qin Kongdao chose to form his War King Seal, merely the word ”War” flew from Qin Kongdao’s hand. It wasn’t overwhelming in momentum, nor did it show signs of sweeping everything. It simply opened a path for Qin Kongdao, directly shock-killing towards the demon-like Immortal Island’s Twin Princes.

Lights shone brilliantly, blinding visibility, even releasing divine thought yielded nothing, leaving everyone dumbfounded. Despite the invisibility, they watched the skies intently, not knowing who won the ultimate showdown within the ”Ancient Killing Saint Array,” between Qin Kongdao and the Twin Princes.

Poof!

A spurt of blood sprayed out, and Qin Kongdao’s entire body flew backwards. At this moment, two ferocious birds, like prehistoric beasts, continued to devour him. The Immortal Island’s Twin Princes showed a hint of a cold, triumphant smile. They won, taking advantage of favorable conditions to plot against Qin Kongdao. Even if Qin Kongdao were stronger, he had lost the innate chance of battle, no match for the brothers.

Boom!

Boom!

Two earth-shattering roars. At a crucial moment, the War King Mace appears, seemingly sensing the War King’s danger, and protecting its master immediately unleashes two earth-shattering powers, shock-killing the two ferocious birds, leaving the demon-like Immortal Island’s Twin Princes gnashing their teeth.

”Just block those two swords!” Qin Kongdao looked at the War King Mace and said.

Whoosh!

The War King Mace didn’t stop, facing two divine swords outside, also treasures of the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes, defending against two without defeat, even able to lend aid to Qin Kongdao, proving truly remarkable.

At this moment, Qin Kongdao seemed seriously injured, sitting cross-legged, covered in blood; the strength of the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes far exceeded his imagination. Especially when he forcefully tried to break the ”Ancient Killing Saint Array,” he was injured and consumed too much Martial Arts True Power, indeed feeling powerless!

”Defeated? The War King is defeated...”

”How is that possible, this...”

”That’s it, all of us here will die, all three Ancient Martial Worlds and even entire Earth will face devastation!”

”The Immortal Island’s Twin Princes are too despicable and shameless, tricking Qin Kongdao into the Ancient Killing Saint Array, consuming too much power, then battling these demons in a life-death struggle, already losing fairness!”

”The victor becomes king, the defeated becomes a captive, survival of the fittest. In the Martial Arts World, this is the basic survival law, there’s no despicable or not, just blame the War King for being careless!”

Present Martial Artists couldn’t help but discuss and became worried. Everyone understood that War King Qin Kongdao was the protector, wouldn’t indiscriminately kill innocents over personal grudges. However, the demon-like Immortal Island’s Twin Princes are entirely different, killing without hesitation, finding joy in murder. Regardless of feud or not, they would kill, as that was their perceived pleasure and excitement. Once the War King falls, if Qin Kongdao is killed, would anyone here survive? Would the three Ancient Martial Worlds see peace? On Earth, both Ancient Martial World and Mortal World may be blood-washed by these demons!

The Immortal Island’s Twin Princes looked at Qin Kongdao, wearing triumphant cold smiles, stepping towards Qin Kongdao, as they saw Qin Kongdao severely injured, sitting cross-legged in the air, seemingly unable to resist. Wasn’t this awaiting their slaughter?

Ring!

Dong!

Unknown when, a long piano appeared before Qin Kongdao, notes began to emerge one by one, causing everyone to frown. At the final hour, War King Qin Kongdao wasn’t thinking about how to use Absolute Skill Divine Power to kill the Immortal Island’s Twin Princes, but had leisure for piano playing? Had he given up hope, even abandoned resistance?

”It seems you’ve already accepted your fate, play a tune to see yourself off!” said the eldest Immortal Island prince with a smile.

”How brave the War King was back in the day, and now he only knows how to play the zither; I really feel sorry for you!” the second Immortal Island prince mocked as well.

”What’s wrong with the War King? Why is he playing the zither at a time like this?”

”Has he truly fallen from his former glory, not even having the will to fight to the death?”

”The might of the Immortal Island’s twin princes is evident to all. Besides the War King, who among us could contend with them in battle? Stepping up means certain death. Now that the War King has been plotted against and severely injured by these two demons, it’s likely very difficult for him to fight again!”

”There doesn’t seem to be anything special about this zither melody. Is the War King really playing to see himself off?”

Yet the twin princes of Immortal Island remained cautious. Although they didn’t sense anything unusual, they still stopped, exchanged a glance, and simultaneously made a move to force back the War King Mace. Each gripped a sword, still wary and not daring to underestimate Qin Kongdao’s authority and power. Despite seeing that Qin Kongdao appeared to lack the strength to fight, they dared not charge directly at him!

”When I fought against you back then, I didn’t play the zither. Today, let me end your lives with this melody!” Qin Kongdao said indifferently.

”Facing death, you speak so arrogantly!”

”Are you trying to scare us? War King, you’ve truly weakened!”

Whoosh!

Suddenly, just as the twin princes of Immortal Island couldn’t stop sneering, believing Qin Kongdao was trying to intimidate them, a beam of moonlight descended from the sky, slashing towards them with unparalleled force, as if it could cleave through space!

”It’s just a minor trick!”

”Didn’t expect you still had the power to fight!”

The twin princes of Immortal Island were shocked, yet disdainful, thinking this was Qin Kongdao’s last, desperate struggle, already at the end of his strength. Simultaneously, they swung their Divine Swords to destroy the descending moonlight!

Bang! Boom!

Unexpectedly, when the Divine Swords of the twin princes touched the moonlight, they were shattered by it. Their Divine Swords, companions for thousands of years, were thus destroyed, leaving the twin princes of Immortal Island dumbfounded, disbelieving. Could it be that Qin Kongdao’s War King power was only being displayed now? How could that be possible!

”Qin Kongdao, you...” The eldest Immortal Island prince, looking at his blood-covered hands, was so shocked that he could hardly speak.

”You...only now exerted full power...” The second Immortal Island prince, also with blood-covered hands, looked at Qin Kongdao playing the zither with disbelief.

The twin princes of Immortal Island had blood-stained hands, injured when they swung the Divine Swords at the moonlight, Qin Kongdao’s zither-playing force terrifying them. They suddenly realized they were fighting with full strength, whereas Qin Kongdao seemed to have only just begun. Was this the gap between them? Was this the might of the War King?

Clang! Clang!

Qin Kongdao remained silent, continuing to play the zither. The sound was melodious and pleasant, a heavenly tune to outsiders, but to the twin princes of Immortal Island, it was overwhelming pressure meant to crush them.

The zither music echoed throughout the Ancient Dojo. After that beam of moonlight descended and destroyed the twin princes’ Divine Swords, in the Ancient Killing Saint Array, streams of Water Divine Runes appeared, filling the entire formation. Even the dark whirlpools were absorbed into it, and the zither sound, like ripples, spread towards the twin princes. As it reached them, these streams transformed into fierce waterfalls, crashing towards them.

Boom!

The twin princes of Immortal Island were blasted away, their bodies covered in blood, seemingly powerless against the strength of the zither music. The martial artists present were all stunned, unable to believe the War King Qin Kongdao was so mighty. It seemed only now was he truly making a move, while earlier he was merely toying with them. If so, with Qin Kongdao’s power, wouldn’t it have been a walk in the park to destroy the twin princes of Immortal Island? (To be continued.
