NETS – Chapter 240 – How Is This Possible?
“[Divine Smite]!”
As Lu Ping cried out, one of the Primordial Stars shot towards Enlightened Master Jin.
“[Armor Transmutation]!”
Enlightened Master Jin Li shouted. His golden aegis energy shrank back and merged with a top-grade defensive mystic instrument, shifting into a scarlet armor over him.
The Primordial Star struck the scarlet armor, knocking him back a step!
Then, two more Primordial Stars shot out from the sides and struck him in quick succession.
Enlightened Master Jin remained undaunted—he slashed out nine sword lights that attacked Lu Ping from different angles. He’d calculated every possible move Lu Ping could take to dodge the attacks, leaving the latter no choice but to take the brunt of the sword lights.
Lu Ping’s expression turned solemn, he cast the Verdant Dawn Sword into the Sword Jiao, which lunged forward to stop the incoming assault.
After a series of clashes, Verdant Dawn Sword eliminated two of the nine sword lights, then shattered into hundreds of tiny pieces that sank into the sea.
The Verdant Dawn Sword was Lu Ping’s most frequently used mystic instrument, and now it was broken!
Lu Ping didn’t have time to mourn—he calmly reached out to cast up the sword fragments, using them to eliminate the third sword light.
With that, the Verdant Dawn Sword’s fragments were completely ground into metal dust, disappearing in the wind.
Lu Ping cast up the pestle mystic instrument again, crushing four of the remaining six sword lights at once!
The last two sword lights eventually hit Umbra, Million Poisons Aegis Energy, and the talisman treasure’s last protective light circle.
The Umbra turned into a puff of smoke that looked like it would dissipate at any moment. The Million Poisons Aegis Energy shattered like a broken eggshell; and the protective light circle was also crushed apart.
Fortunately, they still managed to block the last two sword lights.
Lu Ping’s face turned pale underneath his red-faced disguise mask.
He hurriedly activated his defensive talisman treasure and three more light circles appeared around him again. With that, the talisman was used up, and it turned into a pile of dust that poured away from between Lu Ping’s fingers.
At this moment, Enlightened Master Jin had just blocked the attacks of three more Primordial Stars, and his scarlet armor was beginning to show cracks.
Suddenly, the Enlightened Master’s ghastly white face flushed crimson, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
His injuries were worsening!
Lu Ping quickly seized this chance to cast all twelve Primordial Stars to attack. They moved unpredictably, making it impossible for Enlightened Master Jin to anticipate where they would hit him.
What kind of powerful and unpredictable array formation is this? What kind of array formation would need twelve top-grade mystic instruments?
The amount of arcane energy needed to cast all twelve together, and even use them in an array formation—even a First Layer Core Forging Enlightened Master wouldn’t last this long!
For the first time, Enlightened Master Jin Li’s confidence in killing Lu Ping was shaken.
How is this possible? It’s inconceivable!
Enlightened Master Jin Li’s hideous expression was a mixture of disbelief, anger, and frustration!
Suddenly, a cracking noise could be heard coming from his palm; a flurry of dust leaked out from between his fingers.
Then, a stream of gray smoke flowed out from his palm to outline a huge crocodile in the sky!
The Primal Giant Crocodile!
The monster beast’s maw took up a third of its body length. It let out a silent roar in the sky.
Lu Ping could clearly see its sharp teeth, and the overbearing aura in its eyes.
Six Primordial Stars shot out of nowhere at the giant Primal Giant Crocodile, but it swiftly dodged to the side with a speed disproportionate to its huge body.
It bit down fiercely on two Primordial Stars, scraping off bits of dust from the surface of the spirit pearls.
Lu Ping’s heart suddenly felt a twinge of pain—the nascent life mystic instruments were linked to his cultivation base, so any damage they took would also affect him.
Two of the Primordial Stars hit the Primal Giant Crocodile’s eyes—it opened its mouth in pain, and the two bitten Primordial Stars quickly flew away.
The damaged Primordial Stars regrouped with the others. They echoed with each other and shone brightly again.
Two more Primordial Stars set out to attack again.
The Primal Giant Crocodile tilted its body and slapped them away with its tail. Taking on the damage the blow caused, Lu Ping fell back several steps.
Enlightened Master Jin smiled viciously and controlled the Primal Giant Crocodile to lunge at Lu Ping!
Ever since he entered the Core Forging Realm, Enlightened Master Jin had never used any talisman treasures anymore.
This talisman treasure was given to him by his god-father, Golden Jiao Island Lord, back when he was still in the Blood Condensation Realm.
During that time, Enlightened Master Jin used the talisman treasure just twice to overcome the hurdles in his cultivation journey, before advancing into the Core Forging Realm.
He initially intended to keep the talisman treasure as a souvenir of his time in the Blood Condensation Realm.
Who knew he’d be in such dire straits that he’d use it to defend himself against a Blood Condensation cultivator? He was furious just thinking about it!
The Primal Giant Crocodile lunged fiercely towards Lu Ping, who shot out another spirit pearl. Enlightened Master Jin’s expression changed when he saw the spirit pearl—the pressure from the Primordial Stars was still fresh in his mind.
However, unlike the twelve Primordial Stars that emitted five colors of light, this one was scarlet in color and slightly larger in size, more like a bead.
The Scarlet Sunset Bead arced above the Primal Giant Crocodile, turned crystal-like and then suddenly burst out countless scarlet threads.
The scarlet threads wrapped around the Primal Giant Crocodile; it struggled desperately to tear them off, only for more threads to grow, and they eventually bound the monster tightly.
Then, a stamp seal flew up into the sky, enlarging into the size of a house, and slammed down onto the Primal Giant Crocodile.
In the first blow, Landslide broke the crocodile’s sharp teeth—the second snapped off its giant tail.
The Primal Giant Crocodile struggled hard and roared silently, but the threads only drew tighter, making its struggle a futile effort.
In the third blow, Landslide broke the monster’s spine and incapacitated the crocodile!
Enlightened Master Jin’s pupils widened, his eyes turned red and he bellowed angrily, “How dare you… How dare you force me to such a state?! You’ll pay with your life! I’ll show you what a divine ability is!”
Enlightened Master Jin Li shouted, “Come!”
His nascent flying sword flew up into the sky. It slashed through the empty air and made 1,296 sword lights in the sky, all of which hovered without moving.
Then, the flying sword slashed in each direction, one after another. Each time, there would be another 1,296 sword lights created in the sky.
The sword lights filled the heavens, spreading across one end to the other. Each one was lined up in an orderly manner, but they were all pointing at Lu Ping!
Lu Ping’s expression changed drastically.
Divine ability, this is a genuine divine ability! He’s only just comprehended Sword Unity yet can already awaken a divine ability with his Sword Intent?! That’s incredible!
Enlightened Master Jin spat out a mouthful of blood, but he didn’t seem to notice his injuries as he laughed happily and said, “This is the inherited divine ability of the Golden Carps. I’ve only glimpsed at it myself, so my comprehension isn’t complete, but this is more than enough to kill you. You truly are amazing, I’ll give you that—no one has ever forced me this far. You should be proud of yourself while you’re still alive!”
“Sword art divine ability, the True Spirit Heavenly Gate!”
The sky hummed with the sound of moving blades—more than 40,000 spiritual sword lights came together to form a huge sword array!
The sword array took on the form of a heavenly gate, emitting an ancient and mysterious aura as a torrent of silvery water flowed out from the gate!
This was the true sword array!
In comparison, Lu Ping’s Enneagon Sword Array was akin to a candle while the True Spirit Heavenly Gate was the sun.
As the silvery wave flowed down, the water cascaded down with the force of heaven and earth towards Lu Ping.
In fact, each drop of water was a spiritual sword light, and each wave of water was another sword array!
Lu Ping’s fate was to be annihilated in the face of heaven and earth’s might.
At this time, Enlightened Master Jin spurted out a mouthful of blood again.
It was an unbearable burden for him to perform this sword art divine ability that he had not yet fully mastered, not to mention that he was also suffering from heavy injuries.
The True Spirit Heavenly Gate was made up of 36 great sword arrays, and each great sword array consisted of 1,296 sword lights. It was definitely a huge burden, and the sword art already looked unstable and moving out of control!
However, Enlightened Master Jin couldn’t care about anything else. As a sword practitioner, he had been obsessed with swordsmanship all his life.
So, at this moment, he only wished to cherish the magnificent sword art divine ability that he had just cast. He was so obsessed to the point that he had forgotten to kill Lu Ping right away!
