Chapter 329: Chapter 238 Break Formation, The Terrifying Arrow Skill of Lu Qing_2
 

“Agh! Who dares ambush me!”

The figure in the black robe flipped in the air, taking advantage of the momentum to retreat and directly entered a grey light screen, furious and shocked.

His appearance now was indeed miserable.

Between his chest and abdomen, a ghastly wound that slanted across, deep enough to see the bone, and even internal organs were faintly visible, nearly splitting him in two.

On his forehead, chest, and abdomen, three long arrows were stuck as well, though they had not penetrated deeply and failed to pin him completely.

“He’s still not dead?”

Lu Qing was surprised.

The three arrows he had just shot, although hurried and not full strength, were not easily deflected by someone of ordinary Innate Body.

He didn’t expect them to be blocked so effortlessly.

Moreover, even his master’s Sword Qi had not been able to finish him off, indicating that the Array’s power was stronger than he had imagined.

This sudden turn of events also greatly surprised the swordsman.

But upon seeing the miserable state of the figure in the black robe, he couldn’t help but feel joy, “Which fellow Daoist has extended their righteous hand?”

“Is it you! Who are you?”

Lu Qing and the elder doctor had taken action, naturally revealing themselves, and were immediately discovered by the figure in the black robe and the swordsman.

Upon seeing this, both were shocked once again.

They never expected that those who struck would be a young man and an elder.

More importantly, they could not see through the Cultivation Realm of Lu Qing and the elder doctor.

“Who are we? Just passersby who could not stand idly by,” Lu Qing spoke out loud, “Flowing Cloud Sect set up a Demon Formation, wreaking havoc on Yunzhou’s righteous path. This act incurs the wrath of heaven and the people, and all should be condemned.”

“Well said, young friend!” the swordsman exclaimed loudly, “Both of you, please join hands with me to break this Demon Formation and rescue the colleagues from Yunzhou inside.”

“Want to save people? Pure delusion, let’s see how you save them!”

The figure in the black robe sneered coldly, pulled out the three arrows nailed to his body, and threw them to the ground.

Immediately, black energy emerged from within his body and the wounds on his body began to slowly wriggle and heal.

The power of the Array even had healing effects.

However, even though his wounds were healing slowly, the figure in the black robe dared not step out of the grey light screen.

The previous attack by Lu Qing and the elder doctor was an ambush, yet incredibly powerful.

Especially the white Sword Qi, which was so sharp it almost cleaved him in two. If not for the Array’s power protecting his body, he would have almost died on the spot.

He had come to know that the elder, whose Cultivation Realm he could not fathom, was far above him.

If he were to step out, even with the power of the Array to support him, he probably wouldn’t be a match for him.

“When did such a terrifying powerhouse come to Yunzhou?”

The figure in the black robe thought, feeling the situation slipping out of control.

“Master, take action!”

Lu Qing didn’t waste any more words, giving the command directly.

The elder doctor nodded, silent and wordless. The long sword in his hand trembled, and the next moment, dozens of streams of Sword Qi shot forward like a school of fish.

“How is this possible!”

As he watched the onslaught of Innate Sword Energy coming at him like a torrential downpour, dread filled the figure in the black robe. Suddenly, an Array Flag appeared in his hand, into which he fiercely poured his Divine Soul Power.

With the Array Flag activated, a massive amount of black energy quickly gathered in front of the figure in the black robe. The originally grey light screen instantly turned shiny black.

A series of muffled sounds erupted.

The elder doctor’s Sword Qi, simple and unadorned, all bombarded onto the light screen.

The light screen vibrated continuously, creating waves and scattering the black energy.

Regrettably, by the time the last trace of Sword Qi vanished, the black energy on the light screen, although dispersed by a great deal, held firm and was not broken through.

“I’ve finally blocked it.”

The figure in the black robe sighed with relief, cold sweat forming on his forehead.

However, he felt no ease in his heart.

Just from that one exchange, one-fifth of his Divine Soul Power had been depleted. If the elder could continue to unleash such ferocious Sword Qi, he feared that his Divine Soul Power would be exhausted before the Array could be breached.

Having no choice, he began to transmit his voice secretly, “Senior brother, are you done on your end? A thorn in our side has appeared, I can’t hold on much longer!”

“It’ll be ready soon, just hold out for half a quarter-hour more!” a voice responded in his mind.

“Half a quarter-hour?”

A heaviness settled in the heart of the figure in the black robe.

But he also knew that things had reached a point of no return.

If their plan failed this time, he and his fellow disciples would probably have no choice but to flee for their lives.

“Forget it, let’s give it our all. That old man is so old, the attack he just launched might not be able to be sustained several times!” thought the figure in the black robe, gritting his teeth.

“The darkness in this light screen was actually able to neutralize my Sword Qi.”

The elder doctor was slightly startled.

He could feel that even though his Sword Qi had scattered the black mist, it had also been greatly depleted, allowing the light screen to withstand the attack.

Indeed, the ways of the Array were mysteriously powerful.

“Master, continue. He is using the Array Flag to manipulate the Array’s power, concentrating it in one spot to fend off your attack. This way, the defensive power of the light screen in other areas will be greatly reduced.”

Lu Qing’s eyes were closed as his powerful Divine Soul Sensing Ability enveloped the entire Liuyun Town, minutely scanning the operation of the entire Array.

“This kid knows about Arrays too?”

The black-robed figure was shocked, but he no longer had time for surprise, as the elder doctor launched another barrage of Sword Qi that was as relentless as a storm.

“Elder, I shall assist you!”

The swordsman standing by, although also shocked by the elder doctor’s terrifying Sword Qi, knew that what mattered most was destroying the Array.

He immediately swung his sword, sending several Sword Qi blasts toward the light screen.

The black-robed figure waved the Array Flag, gathering the black mist again.

Boom!

The loud sound of a violent collision echoed as the light screen shook once more.

“It’s right there!”

At that moment, Lu Qing’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened. With a swift movement, he drew an arrow from the quiver on his back, notched it against the string of the Longbow, and, pulling the bowstring taut like a full moon, he fired diagonally into the sky.

Ever since Lu Qing had revealed the secret of manipulating the Array’s power, the black-robed figure had been keeping an eye on him.

When he saw Lu Qing draw the bow, his guard went up, preparing for another sneak attack.

Unexpectedly, Lu Qing shot the arrow into the sky, which caused the black-robed figure to breathe a sigh of relief and even scoff, “Kid, your Arrow Technique is really quite poor, you should go back and practice some more…”

However, before the black-robed figure could finish ridiculing him, a loud boom rose from behind him in Liuyun Town.

He jolted violently and immediately felt the speed of his Array manipulation slow by a fraction.

His Heart and Spirit plunged into the Array Flag to investigate and he immediately realized the reason.

Disbelieving, he looked toward Lu Qing, “You can actually sense the formation nodes of the Demon Formation?”

Lu Qing waved the Longbow in his hand and grinned, “While you were using the Array’s power to resist the attacks of my master and that elder, the other Array Formation Light Screens couldn’t stop my arrows.”

As it turned out, Lu Qing’s action of shooting an arrow into the sky had been a deliberate one, using a Throwing Skill to destroy one of the Array’s nodes in Liuyun Town.

“Master, elder, continue the attack. After I destroy eight more nodes, the Array will break!”

Lu Qing drew another long arrow from his Arrow Quiver.

Upon hearing this, both the elder doctor and the swordsman immediately reactivated their Sword Qi.

Especially the swordsman, seeing that Lu Qing actually had a way to Break Formation, fought more vigorously, unleashing his full might and executing more than a dozen Sword Qi strikes.

“Damn it!”

As the black-robed figure fumed with anger, he was rendered completely helpless against the attacks of the elder doctor; he could only continue to manipulate the Array’s power in defense.

As the black mist gathered again, Lu Qing fired another arrow, and without fail, another resounding blast followed as yet another Array node was destroyed by him.

“Why is this kid’s Arrow Skill so formidable!”

The black-robed figure was filled with astonishment and anger, realizing that Lu Qing’s success wasn’t just a fluke but a true ability to destroy the Array.

He was also amazed by Lu Qing’s Arrow Skill.

Liuyun Town was not exactly small, and the second node that had just been destroyed was a full distance away from where they stood.

To be able to precisely hit an Array node a mile away, through the influence of the Array’s power and the obstructions created by numerous buildings, was truly astounding.

Even the black-robed figure had never heard of such Arrow Skill.

“We’re in trouble!”

He understood that they were truly doomed now!
