Chapter 819: The Warm Palm
If a swordsman lost his saber, his strength would be reduced by more than half.
"Let's end it, kid. Your saber technique is not bad, but unfortunately, you're going to die young. Actually, as long as you give up and beg me for mercy now, maybe you're allowed to be my saber guard." The Black Mountain Demon Emperor licked his lips with his scarlet tongue. The upcoming slaughter greatly excited him.
"You are long-winded."
Zhang Fan always replied in this way.
Even though he lost the long saber, he still exuded an air of detachment and calm.
As Black Mountain Demon Emperor approached, Zhang Fan clenched his right hand in the air. With a glimmer of light, a strange purple longbow suddenly appeared in his hand, giving forth an odor of extraordinary brutality, as if a giant beast was held in his hand.
"Bow? How could a swordsman know how to use a bow? You're fighting like a trapped beast." The Black Mountain Demon Emperor sneered.
But the smile quickly froze on his face.
As Zhang Fan slowly drew the bow, the reddish beams turned into a bowstring. At the same time, a long arrow made of flame, like a Vermilion Bird that was about to fly, was being formed bit by bit. The long cry of the Vermilion Bird rang out in the air.
Swoosh!
The purple longbow was instantly pulled to the full extent, and the arrow shot out violently.
"So fast..." The Black Mountain Demon Emperor could only see the shadow of the arrow. In a hurry, he placed his two sabers in front of him.
Boom!
He was sent flying into the air.
As soon as his body was banged hard against the light barrier at the edge of the Life-and-Death Arena, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The power of this arrow was beyond his imagination.
Before he could react, he heard the roar of a tiger.
Zhang Fan shot the second arrow.
The arrow rushed out and crackled through the air, resembling a White Tiger.
Boom!
The arrow gave the Black Mountain Demon Emperor a violent thump once again.
In other people's eyes, it was like a giant White Tiger instantly opening its bloody mouth and swallowing the Black Mountain Demon Emperor.
Clang!
The sound of the bowstring vibrating rang out again.
At this time, a divine beast called Black Tortoise burst out from Zhang Fan's hand.
Without any suspense, the Black Mountain Demon Emperor was hit once again.
The colossal phantom of the Black Tortoise smote him like a mountain. The entire Life-and-Death Arena was shaking and flickering wildly, as if it was about to break into pieces.
Clang!
The bowstring trembled for the fourth time.
An Azure Dragon flew out of Zhang Fan's hand.
The dragon flew in the air and its roar resounded through the space. With destructive power, the azure shadow swallowed the whole body of the Black Mountain Demon Emperor.
Four attacks from four divine beasts.
The Divine Four Guardians Bow.
The longbow in Zhang Fan's hand was the Divine Four Guardians Bow that Ding Hao had taken from Zi Xiong's hand in the Bone-burying Forest. It was a powerful longbow at the Fake God Level. After being refined by Ding Hao, it had become completely ownerless. Besides his saber technique, Zhang Fan's arrow technique was also unsurpassed. So the longbow could be an ace in the hole for him.
As expected, Zhang Fan didn't fail to live up to the divine bow. He shot four times in a row, fully releasing the power of the four divine beasts.
As soon as the divine bow was drawn, the whole world was shocked.
The Human Clan camp was in an uproar. They thought that the battle was over after Zhang Fan's saber was broken, but they didn't expect this surprising ending. Such an amazingly powerful and challenging bow technique had exceeded the definition of any ordinary archery skill.
"He won?
"The Black Mountain Demon Emperor was hit four times in a row. How come he's not dead yet?"
Many impatient warriors of the Human Clan had begun to revel and shout excitedly. The sound of people shouting Zhang Fan's name resounded through the sky, tumbling and echoing between heaven and earth like spring thunder. Many ordinary warriors of the Human Clan had become fervent admirers of Zhang Fan at that time.
This battle of despair, which everyone had thought he would lose for sure, had miraculously snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. This extreme shock simply made the Human Clan thrilled.
"Haha, we won! We really won. Long live the Mad Saber!" In the excited crowd, Jin screamed at the top of his voice, and a flush lit up his face.
Ding Hao gently pressed his shoulder and said, "Let's wait and see. It's not over yet."
"Really?" Jin was startled.
On the arena, Zhang Fan held the bow and stood quietly at the same place, no longer shooting arrows.
The Divine Four Guardians Bow's supreme power just came from these four arrows. There were no advantages to shoot more arrows. On the contrary, it may do some damage to him. After all, every time he drew the bow, he had to expend an enormous amount of energy.
On the opposite side, the power of the four arrows was slowly dissipating.
From the very beginning, the Black Mountain Demon Emperor had almost been nailed to the light barrier of the arena when taking the blows from the four arrows. The genius from the Demon Clan was entirely engulfed in the red, silver, orange, and cyan flames. No one could see how he had been. Until now, there had been no sign of him living.
Clang!
A light sound was heard.
Pieces of black metal fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
They were twin sabers of the Black Mountain Demon Emperor.
They were his exclusive weapons.
But now they broke into pieces.
It was a great shock to many powerful warriors of the Demon Clan.
It also made many warriors of the Human Clan relieved. The exclusive weapons were broken, so it meant that the Black Mountain Demon Emperor must be dead.
"Haha... Haha... Hahahahaha..." Right at this moment, manic laughter suddenly came from the flames that had not yet dissipated. This voice sounded frenzied and powerful. The demonic horror suddenly lay around everyone. A black figure gradually came out of the flames.
It was the Black Mountain Demon Emperor!
He looked a little messy, and there were scars all over his body. But obviously, they were just skin trauma. His black armor was shining with a Saint-level gloomy air. His body swelled several times, and his whole head completely turned into the shape of an ox demon with a bloody mouth and scarlet pupils like burning flames. Now he simply looked like the most terrible nightmare.
He laughed wildly.
His black armor flickered in a dusky and lurid glow, erasing all his wounds in an instant and enable him to return to his peak state.
"Is this your ace in the hole?" The Black Mountain Demon Emperor stopped laughing, and his expression suddenly became fierce and violent. He stared at Zhang Fan with his scarlet pupils like a devil. He said disdainfully, "I knew that the Human Clan would give you something to help you fight to the death. If it's all you've got, then you're doomed for sure. Your pathetic bow couldn't even pierce my Heaven-deceiving Magic Armor."
Around the arena, the warriors of the Human Clan who had been cheering thunderously instantly quieted down.
In that instant, their ecstasy dropped to the bottom.
How would it happen?
It was impossible!
The Black Mountain Demon Emperor was actually fine?
After being attacked by the Divine Four Guardians Bow, he instantly recovered.
How could they continue to fight?
Obviously, Zhang Fan had put his body in a position for maximum power, but the Black Mountain Demon Emperor, just like an unreachable mountain, could not be defeated at all.
In the crowd, Ding Hao frowned tightly.
"How... how could that be?" Jin was stunned. He was unable to understand what he was seeing.
A lanky, young disciple in black from the Purple Spirit Sect sneered and said, "I've said that there wouldn't be a miracle. Don't pin any hope on an ordinary..." Before he could finish his words, Jin couldn't help but swing a punch at him. Then he roared, "Are you f*cking a human..."
The lanky, young disciple in black slowly raised his hand to fend off Jin's blow. There was a great disparity in their strength.
"How dare you attack me?" The lanky, young disciple in black sneered. "I've tolerated you for a long time. Do you think that people of the Purple Spirit Sect can be abused by losers like you? Today, I'll get you crippled so that you can know your place."
While he was speaking, he began exerting force with his palm and was about to crush Jin's fist.
Cold shivers instantly ran down Jin's forehead. The terrifying strength that was hard to withstand almost made his fist smashed.
Just as he felt that his fist was about to smash, a warm palm was placed on his shoulder and a stream of heat instantly spread from the palm to his whole body. Then the sharp pain from his fist decreased like a tidal stream. With a thud, the disciple of the Purple Spirit Sect screamed in horror.
Jin raised his head and had a look.
He saw that the disciple's palm had been crushed and mangled beyond recognition. The disciple was looking at him in shock and disbelief.
"What..." Jin looked down at his palm, having no clue what had just happened.
However, there was a kind of unprecedented power wandering through his body as if there were a seed sprouting in his body. It was the first time he had felt what "mightiness" was.
Yes, it must be from that warm palm just now...
Jin turned to look back. When he was about to see what was going on, there was a sudden shriek in the crowd. When he looked up at the arena, he felt that his heart was in his mouth and he forgot everything around him.
Zhang Fan frowned.
The Divine Four Guardians Bow had been blown off.
The Black Mountain Demon Emperor, who had turned into an ox-headed demon, had completely unleashed his strength at the peak. Once he made an attack, before Zhang Fan could draw his bow, the Divine Four Guardians Bow had been blown off.
"Do you understand how huge the gap is?" The Black Mountain Demon Emperor stepped on the Divine Four Guardians Bow and said with a cruel and teasing smile, "This is also true of the strength gap between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan. You have been struggling for tens of thousands of years on this land. Now it's time for you to disappear from the Land of Infinity and give it back to its real master. The Human Clan! You all must die."
Like a victor, he made a declaration.
Hearing what he said, people of the Human Clan swore at him angrily.
"Listen, these are the cries and dirges of the weak," the Black Mountain Demon Emperor pointed to the Human Clan and said contemptuously with a smile, "anger without power is meaningless."
Zhang Fan looked at the Human Clan nearby, lowered his head, and thought seriously for a moment. Then he said, "Your ignorant pride is also a kind of stupidity and wretchedness. The so-called genius of the Demon Clan in the Northern Region is average. Your vision determines your poor thinking, and your mindset decides that you will never be able to achieve success. Do you really think that you have everything under control?"
