Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 408 - Battling Gu Yao

The blood dome that was created by Gu Yao had become a blood sphere sometime during the explosion. Lin Mu and the other two elders couldnʼt tell what was happening inside it, but it was obvious that Gu Yao was planning something.

”We need to kill Gu Yao or there will be a lot of problems.” Lin Mu stated.

”Yes, we cannot let him escape. Just the blood sacrifices are worthy for him to be executed.” Supreme elder replied with anger in his eyes.

The peak master Yi Deng flicked his hand and the fan shaped spirit tool appeared in his hand.

”Why are we waiting then? KILL!” Yi Deng shouted before flying forward.

He waved the fan and blades of wind formed in the air, before attacking the blood sphere.

~clink~

~clink~

~Clink~

It was as if metal was hitting metal and no damage could be seen on the blood sphere.

”Dammit! Itʼs much more tougher than I expected.” Yi Deng said before attacking again.

The supreme elder summoned his spear and made a gesture with his free hand, lighting a flame onto the spear tip.

”True flame extermination spear!” The supreme elder canted before throwing the spear with all his might.

~Shua~

The spear streaked through the air, leaving behind a trail of orange flames.

~Weng~

But just as it was about to hit the blood sphere, it suddenly expanded and turned into the shape of a shield.

”You think you can defeat me like this? Humph!” Gu Yao who had been hidden in the blood sphere all this time revealed himself.

The blood shield blocked the True Flame extermination spear, but not before being damaged by half. There were cracks on the shield and the spear was flickering with flames.

”Return!” The supreme elder ordered, and the spear flew back into his hands.

”Gu Yao, hear your crimes! You have sacrificed countless humans both commoners and cultivators. You dared to scheme against the empire and the sects. Just by the virtue of your bloodline, you belong to the traitorous Gu Clan.

Thus, in the name of the Supreme Elder of the Tri cauldron peony sect, I hereby condemn you to… DEATH!” The supreme elder declared.

The aura of the supreme elder skyrocketed as intense waves of spirit qi emanated from him. Lin Mu could feel the full impact of the spirit qi and finally understood how strong a Nascent Soul realm cultivator, that too one that is in the Adult Stage is like.

”HAHAHA! How many times have I heard the same words in the past, but I am still here, arenʼt I?” Gu Yao taunted as he created blades made of blood.

Raising both his hands to the front, Gu Yao started flicking them towards the three enemies of him.

~Zoom~

~zoom~

~zoom~

The blades of blood flew through the air at great speed, with two of them coming at Lin Mu.

”Flicker!” Lin Mu muttered just a moment before the blade touched him.

~cut~

Lin Muʼs eyes went wide as he looked down at his abdomen. His robes had been cut clean from where the blade of blood had passed, and a faint cut could be seen on his skin as well.

”How?” Lin Mu questioned with shock.

This was the first time his skill Flicker, had failed to protect him from an attack.

”His attacks are too powerful for you to ignore them. They contain a higher amount of spirit qi in them and thus can bypass the effect of the first skill Flicker. Itʼs better that you dodge them instead.” Xukong hurriedly spoke.

Lin Mu was a bit thankful that he learned of this right now. If he did not know of the limitations of the flicker, he may have very well committed a grave mistake in the future. But he at least now knew that the limit for the skill flicker was the Nascent Soul realm.

But there was still the fact that Lin Mu didnʼt know if only Adult stage Nascent soul realm cultivators could affect him or if it was all cultivators in the Nascent Soul realm.

~shua~

Now that Lin Mu had been injured, the ward that was placed on Lin Mus started activating.

”Senior, stop the ward!” Lin Mu urged.

”You sure? Do you have some other idea?” Xukong inquired.

He knew that the ward was a defensive spell and would at most allow him to escape from here. But looking at Lin Mu Xukong could tell that Lin Mu perhaps had some other idea.

”I want to see if the two elders can defeat him and I also want to test out the full potential of the third form of the Boulder collapsing fist.” Lin Mu said.

Lin Mu had never used the boulder collapsing fist beyond the limit of twenty percent. He knew that the skill was quite powerful and if the Bloodline crystal explosion could hurt Gu Yao, then it was likely that the third form of the Boulder Collapsing fist could do the same.

Lin Mu was betting on the fourth skill Fade as his final gambit along with the ward if he wanted to escape.

He trained his eyes on Gu Yao, who was now fighting both the Peak Master Yi Deng and Supreme elder together. The peak master flapped his fan and created blades of winds, while the supreme elder rained punches and kicks on the man while the spear flew around on its own, controlled by his spirit sense.

”Iʼll give you two an offer, join hands with me and Iʼll make you the top sect of the empire.” Gu Yao said.

”HAH! As if we are fools to accept your offer.” Yi Deng scoffed while creating a vortex that spun at great speed, sputtering the blood around.

”Your loss if you do not want to accept it. But know that my Gu Clan shall rule this continent and the Great Zhou Empire will be exterminated, just like they did to my clan!” Gu Yao proclaimed.
