Chapter 141: Chapter 141

Am I... have I fallen into some preconceived notion that was set up in advance?

Seeing the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow plunge into the thundercloud, I instinctively thought it would charge out from it.

But its speed was already extremely fast, and its presence was almost masked by the lightning released by the thundercloud.

if it changed its position!

The moment this thought emerged, Fan Wubing sprang into action. Almost driven by an instinctive survival crisis, he twisted his body subconsciously!

Lightning was supposed to strike from the sky to the ground.

But at this moment, in such an eerie way, it was blasting from the ground to the sky!

The Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow had its feathers tightly pressed against its body. It had transformed itself entirely into a spear-like bolt of lightning, shooting from the electric grid on the ground towards Fan Wubing in the sky, aiming to pierce him through.

Just as it was about to crush him with its lightning might.

He suddenly twisted his body slightly.

Thus, the long-prepared assault by the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow skewed a little. And while it passed through Fan Wubing, it merely grazed past his side. Even though the impact was extremely strong, instantly shattering half of Fan Wubing's body, almost rendering him completely incapacitated for combat.

But, an eerie and terrifying sensation cast a shadow over the heart of the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow.

Just as it didn't know how Fan Wubing could fight more bravely with each battle, nor how he came up with such a dodging maneuver in the air.

At this moment, it also couldn't understand why Fan Wubing, having half his body blown apart, still remained... vibrant.

The thundercloud had reached its limit and slowly dissipated.

The moon appeared once again.

The moonlight shone simultaneously on both the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow and Fan Wubing. The former was still beautiful but slightly ruffled its feathers now, with a pair of eerie eyes filled with shock and puzzlement.

The latter, a bloody mess, his body incomplete. Yet his gaze was terrifyingly calm, making one feel that even if he were to die completely the next moment, such a gaze would not change in the slightest.

The continuous high-intensity exertion exposed the fatigue of the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow. It barely kept it hidden, but soon enough, it saw Fan Wubing's shattered body was recovering at a visibly rapid speed.

In no time, he would be fully restored!

Its eyes finally revealed terror, with fatigue presenting itself alongside fear.

Fan Wubing noticed and said with a smile,

"You're tired. You're scared, too."

He didn't ridicule, yet his tone was even more humiliating to the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow than mockery.

As a Nascent Soul-level monster, having gone through so much trouble, even employing a "feint to the east and strike to the west" strategy, yet still unable to deal with a feeble human at most of the Late Stage of Golden Core strength!

No, he couldn't give him any more recovery time! His recovery ability is simply more terrifying than those Great Demons!

Now's the time, while he's lost half his body and cannot move, to crush him completely!

The Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow spread its wings and soared.

It was a bolt of thunder!

Swiftly piercing through Fan Wubing's body.

At the moment of piercing, it felt the "pleasure" of flesh being shredded and will being crushed.

It let out a long breath, turned around joyfully, and walked towards what had become a puddle of mush that was Fan Wubing, continuously being drained of life force by the thunder.

It wanted to stand on this mushy mass of flesh, sing a victory song, and display its full splendor in praise of victory.

Upon reaching the presence of Fan Wubing.

The mush on the ground instantly filled out, returning to its original form.

The vibrant life aura made the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow's eyes show unprecedented fear.

Why is he still alive, why!

Of course, it wouldn't know that, as the possessor of a makeshift rootless body, Fan Wubing's body constantly stored rootless qi.

It also wouldn't know that this rootless qi was Fan Wubing's blood bank, his "second life".

Even less did it know that Fan Wubing was waiting for it to come closer.

An ominous glint appeared in Fan Wubing's eyes,

"What I feared most was you refusing to approach me! Now, you have come, you have come!"

Fan Wubing's soul trembled from utilizing the Divine Power Soul Suppressing Skill. Without reservation, he unleashed all his power!

A Ninth-Layer Golden Core soul attack, could it intimidate a Nascent Soul-level monster?

Yes, but only for a fleeting moment.

The Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow possessed human intelligence, yet it also had human emotions. It felt shame, felt fear like a human.

When it sensed an irresistible force enshroud its spirit, it finally put away its anger and came to its senses. It realized it truly might die!

It instinctively wanted more, yet its body, despite being commanded, froze in place for a moment.

And in that fleeting moment, it had no escape.

A thin line of blood suddenly appeared before its eyes, pulsating as if connected to a heart.

No, it was not merely a line of blood, but a slender flying sword reflecting a cold intent under the moonlight!

Flying Sword Peach Blossom pierced its brow.

Then within its body, it unleashed the blood-drenched startling Sword Intent of Awakening Thunder.

The blood-colored thunder instantly shredded everything within it.

The eerie brilliance in the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow's eyes swiftly faded. It had never expected that, with a body full of thunder demon techniques, it would ultimately perish under the Thunder Sword Qi.

The Sword Intent of Peach Blossom, known as,

Fan Wubing still remembers the endless thunder when he first encountered it.

The body of the Celestial Splendor Xuan Sparrow disintegrated into mingled dark and light energies.

Seeing these energies, Fan Wubing sensed something was amiss. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novᴇlfire.net

Darn it, he had been so engrossed in the battle that he forgot to set up the Blood and Qi Cage in advance to trap the energies!

In haste, he tried to pull out some blood to contain those energies, but suddenly realized that most of his remaining blood was used to let Peach Blossom release the Sword Intent of Awakening Thunder.

At this moment, only a thin layer of blood remained, making it impossible to erect a Blood and Qi Cage.

Could it be, it wasn't destined?

But right then he saw Peach Blossom, carrying the mingled dark and light energies, flying towards him.

The energy had no intention of escaping.

The doubt barely surfaced when his soul suddenly plunged into a mystical realm.

Soon after, he once again heard the voice of will from the innate magic treasure, Cangxuan Tower,

The mingled dark and light energies actively invaded Fan Wubing's body.

The Swallowing Stars Chewing Moon spun wildly, "Tongue desires" a great movement!

His shattered body instantly became whole. Moreover, the strength of his physique received a qualitative boost—a clear sensation emanated from every inch of his skin. His skin seemed to become crystalline, and his entire aura surged to a peak, then rapidly seeped into the shadows.

He decisively used the Blood Burning Skill to get a sense,
