Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Desperate Situation_1

"Can you escape?"

Three or four li away, Ling Xiao finally caught up with the Green-eyed Clan elder, intercepting him mid-way.

This place was still in the desolate mountains, unseen by anyone.

Ling Xiao could finally fight without any hesitation.

During the previous encounters, he had been somewhat restrained, for fear that others might see his true capabilities.

But now, alone against the Green-eyed Clan elder, he must go all out to end the battle quickly.

"You little beast, do you really think you can stop me by yourself?"

The Green-eyed Clan elder said this out loud, but his heart was filled with inexplicable terror.

What was the background of this youngster? His speed was so fast, it was comparable to that of a Martial Vein Seventh Initial Stage, or even an Intermediate Stage Martial Master.

And those attacks, not only were there a variety of them, but they were also extremely terrifying.

Particularly that finger strike just now, it had almost destroyed his consciousness.

"Whether I can stop you or not, we’ll see if we try."

Ling Xiao smiled faintly, the Ice Glass Sword in hand, pointing towards the Green-eyed Clan elder.

"Heavy Shadow Sword Technique—One Sword, Four Shadows!"

Ling Xiao was very clear that although the Green-eyed Clan elder was already at the end of his rope, a centipede dies but never falls down.

Concerned that the elder might launch a desperate counterattack, using the Heavy Shadow Sword Technique to erode the elder’s will and consume his True Essence was the wisest course of action.

At the moment, he truly didn’t have a way to kill the elder in one move.

The success of the Terrifying Finger earlier was completely due to Ling Yixue’s Serpent-haired Woman Remnant Soul.

To succeed again would not be so easy.

With the Heavy Shadow Sword Technique employed, one person turned into four, surrounding and attacking the Green-eyed Clan elder.

The Green-eyed Clan elder hated this kind of attack the most because it was impossible to determine the opponent’s real body, and therefore, he couldn’t concentrate his True Essence at one point, only managing to cope in a rushed manner.

His hands swung the Thundering Hammer continuously, repelling the four shadows of Ling Xiao again and again.

But after being repelled, they attacked once more.

Over and over, the Green-eyed Clan elder’s escaping speed slowed down considerably.

In half a day, he had moved forward less than thirty feet.

"I can’t continue to drag this out; I must fight quickly and decisively!"

The Green-eyed Clan elder knew Ling Xiao’s intentions and could feel that more people were approaching him from behind.

If he continued to delay, he was truly going to capsize in the gutter today and die at the hands of this Martial Meridians Sixth Level Martial Artist.

Such a death would be utterly humiliating.

"Lei Bao Smash!"

Suddenly, the Green-eyed Clan elder roared furiously, his True Essence flaring wildly as the Thundering Hammer smashed towards his direct front.

Boom!

A loud crash sounded, and two figures directly in front of him were obliterated.

Then, seizing the momentum, the Green-eyed Clan elder sped off with a speed hard to discern with naked eyes.

"Is this your final desperate strike? Indeed formidable!"

Ling Xiao wasn’t scared by the attack; he had used the Heavy Shadow Sword Technique precisely to force the elder to use this move.

Now, in a state of insane True Essence burning, the Green-eyed Clan elder’s speed had reached its pinnacle.

But just like the fleeting bloom of the night-blooming cereus or the last flash of light before extinction, it couldn’t last for a long time.

Ling Xiao was waiting for this moment.

A phantom of the Ghost Ship appeared beneath his feet.

Combined with Xiang Yun Bu, his speed also increased by more than twice.

Even though it still wasn’t as fast as the Green-eyed Clan elder, he wouldn’t be left too far behind.

As long as the opponent’s breath weakened, it would be much easier to catch up.

In fact, the help of the Ghost Ship Remnant Soul in attack was not as significant as its help in speed.

It was said that in the Ancient Era, many of the Human Clan Martial Artists relied on their own Martial Souls for traveling.

Not to mention the Azure Dragon or White Tiger, Martial Souls like the Ghost Ship and Immortal Palace were also very suitable for traveling.

Of course, while rushing on his way, Ling Xiao did not forget to weaken the strength of the Green-eyed Clan boss.

Whoosh——

A streak of sword light shot out from behind him, chasing the Green-eyed Clan boss with a very strange trajectory, and then piercing through the Green-eyed Clan boss’s protective True Essence.

At this moment, the True Essence used by the Green-eyed Clan boss for defense was almost zero, most of it being expended on his Body Movement Technique. Therefore, the powerful Sword Control Technique could easily succeed.

"Ah!"

In mid-air, the Green-eyed Clan boss was pierced through the thigh by the sword light, and his originally swift speed came to an abrupt halt.

What was most terrifying was that the Flying Sword was actually entwined with Soul Power. Although it was not as fearsome as the Terrifying Finger, it still inflicted a huge burden on his soul.

At the critical moment, the Green-eyed Clan boss bit off the tip of his tongue, the pain of which made him come to his senses once again.

"You damned little beast, I will not let you go, I swear it!"

The Green-eyed Clan boss had only one belief now.

That was to flee!

If he could escape this time, he would inflict a thousandfold, ten thousandfold the pain and humiliation he suffered onto Ling Xiao.

Perhaps they were too focused on each other, neither Ling Xiao nor the Green-eyed Clan boss noticed that, in the woods parallel to them, a figure was moving at an incredibly fast pace.

"Using self-mutilation to stimulate your body’s potential, huh? I’m curious to see how long you can last!"

Ling Xiao stood atop the Ghost Ship, whizzing through the woods, giving off an almost ghostly vibe.

In the eyes of the Green-eyed Clan boss, he felt like he was being stalked by a ghost, unable to escape no matter what.

Finally, the speed of the Green-eyed Clan boss slowed down more and more.

Despair shone in his eyes.

But in an instant, that despair turned into a ruthless gleam.

He took out something from his Storage Ring.

The Green-eyed Clan was most famous among the Ten Thousand Clans for their mechanical devices.

Martial Artists of the Green-eyed Clan mostly understood mechanisms and puppets.

The thing in the hand of the Green-eyed Clan boss was known as the "Space-breaking Strike," a mysterious mechanical device.

This thing looked merely like a tube from the outside and did not seem anything special.

But those who were familiar with it would know that the interior of the Space-breaking Strike was incredibly complex, and it could gain attacking power by being filled with Spirit Stones.

The more Spirit Stones filled, the greater the power of the instantaneous attack would be.

Of course, the power also had a limit according to the quality of the device.

The Space-breaking Strike in the hands of the Green-eyed Clan boss was equivalent to a Fine Treasure, with a full load being one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.

The attacking power could reach the pinnacle strength of a Martial Vein Seventh Layer full strike.

He had not used it until now because Spirit Stones were extremely precious; he had less than two hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones on him, enough for only one use.

But at this moment, knowing that escape was hopeless, what use was there in keeping this thing? Thus, he unhesitatingly took it out.

While running away, he filled it with Spirit Stones.

When one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones were completely filled, the beautifully carved tube began to glow as if the characters on it were inscriptions.

He thought Ling Xiao couldn’t see any of this.

But little did he know that Ling Xiao had been maintaining Soul Entry state all along and saw all his little actions.

Even though Ling Xiao didn’t know what the tube in the hands of the Green-eyed Clan boss was or what it was used for, his instincts told him that something was off.

"Better to strike first then!"

Ling Xiao didn’t plan to avoid confrontation. As long as he could kill the Green-eyed Clan boss before he used the tube, whatever was in the opponent’s hand wouldn’t matter much anymore.
