Chapter 527: Chapter 527 Blood Soul Umbrella

The blood rain falling from the sky this time was different from the previous one, as the prior blood rain had been created by Li Chu through a secret technique of the Red Soul Hall.

However, the blood rain before their eyes was being produced by the blood-red umbrella in Li Chu’s hands.

The current blood rain carried only some corrosive power, and the army was able to fend it off by using spiritual power to form shields.

However, if this blood rain were to persist, it would inevitably deplete everyone’s strength, and over time, they would surely be left without any fighting power.

What was most crucial was that after the appearance of the blood-red umbrella, threads visible to the naked eye began to slowly wrap around the army.

"All retreat."

Lin Chen looked at those blood-colored threads, his instincts telling him they were nothing good, as he sensed a strange aura from them. Without the powerful cultivation techniques of his Second Soul Division, even Lin Chen showed a grave expression and immediately ordered the army to withdraw.

Xu Ma’an and the others nodded and began to retreat together with the army.

They could sense the eerie power contained within the blood-red umbrella in Li Chu’s hands.

If the army stayed, they would be of no help to Lin Chen.

After Lin Chen ordered Xu Ma’an and the others to lead the army in retreat, he immediately gripped the Gentle Breeze Sword in his hand and slashed out rays of sword light towards those blood-colored threads.

However, while the sword qi caused some ripples upon hitting the blood-colored threads, it failed to destroy them.

This took Lin Chen by surprise.

"Heh, don’t bother, just die in endless agony," Li Chu chuckled as he watched Lin Chen unsheathe his sword and slash out sword lights that could not harm him. He felt indescribably satisfied.

The Blood Soul Umbrella in front of him was a Superior Sky-level Magical Treasure, and its attacks were not something Lin Chen could break through.

After the Jade Cauldron Sect’s army had retreated, Lin Chen managed to hold off those blood-colored threads. However, on the other side, the threads spreading towards the martial artists of the Xuan Yin Sect left them utterly dumbfounded.

Wasn’t the young man in the blood robe supposed to be reinforcement? Why were the threads falling upon them?

Some martial artists of the Xuan Yin Sect realized something was amiss and immediately began to flee, but those who were too slow were wrapped by the blood-colored threads, screaming in agony as their life force and vital energy were drained.

In no time, the Xuan Yin Sect disciples wrapped by the threads all turned into skeletons.

Shi Xinghai watched the scene unfold before him, clenching his fists. These disciples were his subordinates, and Li Chu spared no one, not even his own men.

Shi Xinghai, though full of resentment and wrath towards Li Chu, dared not express it and could only suppress his feelings.

Xu Ma’an and the others, witnessing the plight of the Xuan Yin Sect martial artists from afar, felt a surge of fear in their hearts. They were relieved that Lin Chen had ordered them to retreat; otherwise, the Jade Cauldron Sect’s army might have also faced the fate of turning into skeletons.

At this moment, Lin Chen, seeing that his swordsmanship couldn’t break through the blood-colored threads, erupted with a will to fight. A powerful aura burst forth from him, and he unleashed more rays of sword light, this time infusing them with the Power of the Great Dao’s Realm.

With the aid of the True Intent of Thunder and the True Meaning of the Wind, the might of Lin Chen’s swordsmanship surged, and several of the threads were instantly destroyed.

"Destroying my exotic treasure, I’ll have you die for this," Li Chu raged upon seeing the damaged threads.

Whoosh, whoosh—

Under Li Chu’s control, countless blood-colored threads wrapped towards Lin Chen.

Humming—

Lin Chen immediately released the Blue Lotus Divine Flame, and dim lotuses of flame floated around him. He gestured grandly, attacking the approaching blood-colored threads with the flame lotuses.

Although the flame lotuses briefly held back the threads, as more and more wrapped around, even the Blue Lotus Divine Flame couldn’t stop them. Every lotus of fire was pierced and shattered by the blood-colored threads.

"This fellow’s Blood Soul Umbrella truly is an exceptional treasure," Lin Chen commented lightly as he watched the blood-colored umbrella spinning atop Li Chu’s head.

It was rare for anything to withstand Lin Chen’s Blue Lotus Divine Flame, but this blood-colored umbrella proved to be the first magic treasure to do so.

Skrrrt—

Having witnessed the power of the blood-colored threads, Lin Chen no longer held back his true strength. With a sweep of his arm, seven Flying Swords appeared around him.

The instant the seven Flying Swords emerged, they swirled around Lin Chen in the air and quickly assembled into the Seven Killings Sword Array.

Sword qi rose from the sharp blades, and having cultivated the Seven Killings Sword Array to the Second Layer, Lin Chen, despite still only manipulating ordinary attribute-less Flying Swords, had greatly surpassed his previous power.

The Sword Array launched, and a mighty Sword Intent formed a Giant Sword. Lin Chen pointed out, and the Flying Swords, merging with the light of the Giant Sword, slashed towards the blood-colored threads advancing upon him.

Boom—

The Seven Killings Sword Array released by Lin Chen, although it dissolved the blood-colored threads, resulted in the swords breaking apart as well.
