Smiling at Yijian Jin, Qingfeng Li spoke, “I’ve always heard that Gold-Arrow Country’s archery was very powerful. They call it the Godly Arrow. Let me see it for myself today.”
Yijian Jin glared at Qingfeng Li with murder in his eyes. He was very displeased by this overly-cocky young man.
With tremendous force, Yijian Jin activated his vital essence and pulled back on the bowstring of his golden bow. From behind his back, he pulled out a golden arrow. This arrow was forged entirely from forth grade golden meteor stone. It was sharp enough to pierce anything in the world.
Yijian drew back the bowstring all the way, infusing the golden arrow with all his vital essence. Then, he let it loose. Like a beam of golden lightning, the arrow flew toward Qingfeng Li at speeds faster than light, appearing before him almost instantly.
Activating his vital essence, Qingfeng Li abruptly reached forward with his right hand. He was using the Strangle Hell Fist, except that, instead of his fist, he was using his open hand. And with that hand, he caught the golden arrow.
Zap, zap, crackle, crackle…
Caught in Qingfeng Li’s hand, the golden arrow gave out a series of thundering noises, it was the sound of grinding metal, but also like the sound of explosions. However, it could not harm Qingfeng Li’s hand at all.
Qingfeng Li’s body was essentially invulnerable at the moment. Only an attack from a master of the Seventh Level Supreme Realm or higher could damage his flesh, otherwise it couldn’t even scratch him.
Seeing this, Yijian Jin’s expression changed. “Catching my arrow with your bare hands,” he said. “How is it possible? How did you do that?”
“Your golden arrow is nice,” Qingfeng Li said with a smile. “Let me borrow it.”
Gripping the golden arrow in his own hand, Qingfeng Li drew his arm back before throwing it forward with all his strength. In a flash of golden light, the arrow flew toward Yijian Jin.
Yijian Jin’s expression changed. Kicking off the ground, he hurriedly dodged to the side.
But the golden arrow thrown from Qingfeng Li’s hand was far too fast. It slid past his face, slicing through the skin and leaving blood dripping from the wound.
The self-cultivators around them were all taken aback. Whether they were disciples of the Fire Emperor Sect or the group from the Gold-Arrow Country, their eyes were all filled with disbelief.
Yijian Jin was renowned across the five kingdoms across the southern side of the Crimson Fire Continent. He was extremely powerful; they would never have thought that his arrow would have been caught by Qingfeng Li with his bare hands.
A flicker of anger danced across Yijian Jin’s eyes as he drew three more arrows from behind him and shot them toward Qingfeng Li.
The three arrows came at Qingfeng Li from three different directions; they were aimed at his throat, heart, and leg respectively.
Qingfeng Li’s expression remained calm, completely absent of fear. He lifted his hand and drew an arc in the air with lightning speed, catching all three of the golden arrows in his hand.
With tremendous strength, he threw them forward. The three arrows flew toward Yijian Jin in three flashes of golden light, each taking a different path. They left three gashes on Yijian Jin’s body, spilling his blood again.
“Yijian Jin,” Qingfeng Li said, “the penetration of your arrows is too weak. You can’t beat me.”
Rage flashed across Yijian Jin’s eyes. He put his bow and arrow away, and raising his right fist, he threw a punch at Qingfeng Li from afar.
This punch from Yijian Jin was extremely powerful, instantly blowing the void apart. Golden light flashed across the world, as if it were about to envelop the heavens and earth.
Without hesitation, Qingfeng Li used the Seventh Fist of the Strangle Hell Fist. Swinging his fist, he released a wave of earth-shattering tadpole-shaped runes. Instantly, they collided with Yijian Jin’s fist, forcing him back two steps.
Yijian Jin’s expression changed. He knew that he had encountered a powerful foe. Neither the power of his bow and arrow nor the physical prowess of his fists could defeat this young man before him.
“Qingfeng Li. Although your physical strength is great, I’m going to let you have a taste of my spiritual attack.” Yijian Jin glared coldly at Qingfeng Li.
With a thought, Yijian Jin retrieved the Sonic Golden Drum from his interspatial ring.
The Sonic Golden Drum was about the size of an outstretched hand. Upon it flashed mysterious-looking golden talisman scriptures. The whole thing was sewn from a golden skin.
This was no ordinary skin, but the sin of a highly powerful supreme-level demonic beast, the Gold-Arrow Tiger.
As the Chief Advisor of the Gold-Arrow Country, Yijian Jin naturally had many spiritual treasures on his person. The Sonic Golden Drum he had just brought out was a powerful Supreme level Fourth Tier spiritual secret treasure.
The Sonic Golden Drum emitted a powerful spiritual attack. It was very difficult to defend against, and many self-cultivators had been killed by him using this spiritual secret treasure.
Standing his ground, Qingfeng Li sneered. He wasn’t at all worried about Yijian Jin’s Sonic Golden Drum. Quite the opposite, he felt a wave of contempt.
Qingfeng Li’s greatest strength was his spirit energy. It was even more powerful than his Mortal Purgatory Body.
Deep inside Qingfeng Li’s mind-space, there was the Black-White Millstone. This was an Ultimate Treasure of Chaos, indomitable by nature. Even a soul of a Saint couldn’t easily eradicate Qingfeng Li’s soul.
Raising his right hand, Yijian Jin struck the Sonic Golden Drum heavily, releasing a golden wave.
The golden wave was like a sharp blade. As it appeared, it tore a large gash in the air itself. It flew straight at Qingfeng Li’s mind-space.
Qingfeng Li opened his mouth. Activating the spirit energy deep in his mind-space, he poured his spiritual power out in the form of a black lightning lion.
The black thunder lion emitted a series of deafening crackles as it flew straight into the golden sonic. The golden wave was instantly shattered.
Yijian Jin’s expression changed. He hadn’t expected his spiritual attack to be easily broke by Qingfeng Li as well.
Not believing the situation, he reached out his hand again and struck at the Sonic Golden Drum. Countless golden waves erupted, flying toward Qingfeng Li from all directions.
Qingfeng Li didn’t mind at all. Using the power of the spirit energy in his mind-space, he continued to spit out sonic spiritual attacks of his own. The black lion emitted crackling waves of sonic thunder, blasting all of the golden waves into pieces, which turned to dust and disappeared.
As he fought Yijian Jin, Qingfeng Li’s spirit energy grew steadily.
In addition, seeing his opponent’s Sonic Golden Drum, he felt a vague sense of understanding. The sonic attacks emitted by the Golden Drum took the form of waves. Qingfeng Li’s spiritual attacks, however, were usually either in the form of a straight line or an arc.
Why can’t my spiritual attacks be in the shape of waves, Qingfeng Li thought to himself. If they took the form of waves, their attack power would definitely multiply.
Qingfeng Li began to create the Lion Roar’s Fifth Roar, he called it the Sonic Lion Roar.
The Sonic Lion Roar was capable of turning spirit energy into the shape of waves. The sonic lions could appear from the void with surprising speed, catching the enemy off guard.
Of course, to learn the Fifth Roar of the Lion Roar, one had to be able to merge their spirit energy with spatial talisman scriptures. Luckily, Qingfeng Li had studied spatial talisman scriptures before and was very familiar with them.
