Chapter 408: Ninefold Soul Piercing Arrow

When they saw this, everyone who had been worried about the Demon Abyss Realm’s invasion froze in place. They had never expected the Sect Master of the Eternal Prosperity Sect to be so bold as to challenge the dignity of a powerful expert from the Upper Realm.

At this rate, even if he was his biological grandfather, Xiao Shou would inevitably receive a good scolding.

Moreover, what was wrong with allowing him to leave the battlefield and go to the Spirit Realm, where resources were much richer and where he could directly ascend to the Immortal Realm? He could also leave the Heaven Origin Realm, which was about to become a battlefield.

Yet he had refused simply because of something his disciple had said.

Was this person an idiot?

If an elder were willing to take them away from the Heaven Origin Realm right now, they would definitely follow without hesitation.

Truly, some people did not know how fortunate they were.

Everyone secretly thought this to themselves while looking at Xiao Shou as though he were a fool.

"Hahaha..." Tushan Qing burst into hearty laughter after hearing this. "As expected of my precious baby. You have quite a lot of courage. I like you more and more. However, in the face of absolute strength, courage alone isn’t enough!"

"Hmph! You really don’t know your place. Just because I’ve shown you a little respect, you dare to become this arrogant!" Tushan Shanhe rolled his eyes at Tushan Qing and let out a cold snort.

The sound shook everyone’s ears until they nearly went deaf, causing many people to stagger.

A trace of the pressure belonging to a Tribulation Crossing expert truly leaked out and pressed directly toward Xiao Shou.

As the main target, Xiao Shou suddenly felt as though Mount Tai had been placed on his body. It became difficult even to breathe. His bones, muscles, meridians, and everything else trembled under the pressure.

Just as he was about to think of a way to resist, an arm that was not particularly thick reached out from behind him and wrapped around his slender waist.

A low voice sounded beside his ear. "All Laws Forbidden!"

With those words, Xiao Shou suddenly felt all the pressure disappear without a trace.

A reassuring aura surrounded him, while the solid chest behind him made him feel incredibly safe.

There was no need to think about it. He knew that this person was his beloved disciple, Fu Young.

But precisely because of this, Xiao Shou could not help crying out inwardly.

Young’er, don’t appear so handsome and reliable every single time!

What am I supposed to do when you keep making your Master’s heart flutter like this?

"No matter who you are, what status you possess, or what abilities you have, I absolutely will not allow you to offend my Master. If you do it once, I will repay it once. Ninefold Soul Piercing Arrow!" Fu Young had no idea that his protective embrace from behind at this critical moment had completely captivated his Master.

He was simply furious. How dare anyone bully and force his Master?

Even if that person was an elder, it was still unacceptable.

Fu Young’s aptitude, comprehension, and every other aspect were far superior to Xiao Shou’s. Xiao Shou had cultivated for so long within the Yao Guang Space and even created his own sword technique.

How could Fu Young have gained nothing while cultivating inside Yao Ming’s Space?

The moment Yao Ming heard him recite the incantation, it immediately flew far away in panic and cried out in disbelief.

"Master! You’re actually going to use that move? It’s too dangerous! The entire competition arena will be destroyed..." Yao Ming flew far too quickly, and its voice became intermittent, so no one clearly heard the rest of what it said.

They only heard that using this technique would cause the entire competition arena to suffer.

However, no one took those words seriously.

How could the entire competition arena possibly be destroyed?

The entire arena was covered with Tier 5 defensive formations and recovery formations. The Nine Dragons Platform itself was even protected by a Tier 6 defensive barrier.

With such powerful defenses, there was no way a Soul Transformation cultivator could destroy them, no matter how powerful he was.

Unless these two powerful experts from the Upper Realm personally took action.

Xiao Ran, who was standing beneath the Nine Dragons Platform and with the other contestants, also thought Yao Ming’s words were far too exaggerated.

Xiao Shou, however, felt that with his disciple’s aptitude, comprehension, and intelligence, if he had created some ultimate technique, its power truly could not be underestimated.

After all, the Ninety Nine Calamities Cycle Art cultivation techniques were no joke.

Especially the cultivation technique designed for someone with Five Element Spiritual Roots. Every time Xiao Shou saw it, he felt that it was truly heaven defying.

But as Fu Young’s Master, having his disciple protect him was too embarrassing.

If someone was going to resist, it should be him.

Yet when Xiao Shou tried to pull Fu Young’s protective arm away and resist on his own, Fu Young tightened his embrace and prevented him from moving at all.

At the same time, while everyone was lost in their own thoughts, the nine thousand meter long dragons formed from the nine elemental attributes behind him suddenly began rolling and spinning violently. They formed nine rapidly rotating elemental vortices, drawing large amounts of spiritual energy of all nine attributes into themselves.

Yet instead of expanding, the vortices became smaller and smaller as they spun faster and faster, while the aura they emitted grew increasingly powerful.

This transformation took less than a breath.

Everyone watched as the nine thousand meter long dragons transformed into nine elemental vortices. In the next instant, they simultaneously flew toward Tushan Shanhe.

As they shot forward, the metal, wood, water, fire, and earth elements rapidly fused according to profound principles of mutual generation and mutual restraint. The nine vortices became eight, then seven, six... Until they were less than three meters away from Tushan Shanhe, they had transformed into the shape of a one meter long pale golden arrow.
