Chapter 409: Golden Arrow’s Transformation

Interesting. That fellow Tushan Shanhe was getting overconfident. Looks like he is going to suffer a small loss.

Seeing this scene, Tushan Qing thought to himself with a chuckle.

At the same time, everyone else felt that the momentum from before had clearly been extraordinary. But now, with the methods of a Tribulation Crossing expert and nothing more than a one meter long golden arrow, even if it contained a massive amount of compressed spiritual energy, it could not possibly damage the competition arena at all.

It was not only the others who thought this. Tushan Shanhe thought the same.

With an arrogant and disdainful expression, he extended a single finger.

He intended to shatter the golden arrow with one finger and let that arrogant brat understand what cultivation suppression meant and what true absolute power was.

Just as he was thinking this, the spiritual energy projectile shot from his finger was about to strike the tip of the golden arrow when Fu Young’s thin lips moved slightly from across the arena.

"Hit."

At the same time, the tip of the golden arrow collided with the spiritual energy projectile shot from Tushan Shanhe’s finger.

To everyone’s surprise, the spiritual energy projectile did not block the golden arrow in the slightest. The golden arrow passed straight through it and shot toward Tushan Shanhe, who was only a little more than two meters away.

Seeing this, Tushan Shanhe’s silver brows furrowed slightly, revealing a trace of surprise, but he did not take it seriously. He simply struck out with a palm.

This palm strike contained no incantation or spell formula. It relied entirely on cultivation to condense and compress wind elemental spiritual energy. Although it looked unremarkable, the moment it left his hand, fierce winds erupted.

The Holy City guards and some contestants who were caught off guard were blown backward several steps by the violent wind before managing to steady themselves.

The old foxes from the various sects, however, remained completely calm, standing motionless with spiritual energy barriers protecting them from every direction.

"Young’er!"

Seeing that the palm was about to collide with the golden arrow, Xiao Shou nervously grabbed Fu Young’s sleeve and called out.

Fu Young smiled with an expression that suggested everything was under his control and said to Xiao Shou, "Master! Don’t worry. Look!"

Following Fu Young’s gaze, Xiao Shou saw that the golden arrow had once again pierced straight through the enormous palm formed from an immeasurable amount of wind elemental spiritual energy. It shot forward and struck the protective spiritual light in front of the astonished Tushan Shanhe.

The arrow pierced through the protective spiritual light and struck him directly in the chest.

At the tip of the arrow, a sea blue radiance suddenly emerged from Tushan Shanhe’s chest.

In that instant, his entire body was enveloped by a set of sea blue battle armor. The helmet, chest armor, arm guards, wrist guards, gauntlets, and battle boots formed a complete six piece set.

Each piece radiated the brilliance of a supreme grade spiritual treasure. Yet when the six pieces were combined, they emitted the might of a low grade immortal artifact.

The spectacle was dazzling and magnificent. Anyone could tell at a glance that it was extraordinary.

Yet the golden arrow was no less impressive.

After striking Tushan Shanhe’s battle armor, the part of the arrow’s tail that should have been covered in feathers suddenly split open, revealing a rotating nine colored vortex.

Every time the vortex completed one rotation, the shaft of the golden arrow advanced forward by an inch.

The penetrating power and pushing force of the arrow tip suddenly increased several times over, while the vortex at the tail expanded several times as well.

"Kid! Looks like you weren’t exaggerating. You can actually control the spiritual energy of all nine elements, using their mutual generation and restraint while turning their attributes into a physical attack to increase its penetrating and pushing power. The effect is indeed quite good."

Tushan Shanhe watched as his protective battle armor automatically appeared.

There was indeed a moment when he was startled, but when he saw that the golden arrow was completely incapable of even piercing his battle armor, he felt disappointed again.

He had talent and comprehension, yet he lacked sufficient insight. His personality was also far too short sighted and arrogant. Unless such a person possessed astonishing luck, most people like him would ultimately perish while pursuing the Great Dao.

Because he did not want such a talented person to die because of flaws in his personality and limited outlook, he rarely took the initiative to lecture someone in such an irritatingly arrogant tone.

At this moment, however, he had overlooked what Yao Ming had shouted before flying away.

"The entire Heaven Origin Grand Competition arena will suffer!"

From this sentence alone, he should have realized that this was a large scale offensive technique.

At least one person had realized this from the beginning.

Therefore, as soon as Tushan Shanhe finished speaking, he reminded him, whether out of kindness or mischief.

"Two hundred fifteen thousand four hundred forty five consecutive losses. I’ll kindly remind you that this is a large scale attack technique!"

"What?"

The sudden voice of Tushan Qing caused Tushan Shanhe to lose concentration for a brief moment.

Whether it was a coincidence or Tushan Qing had already seen through the timing of the technique’s explosion, during that instant when Tushan Shanhe became distracted, the golden arrow suddenly underwent a violent transformation from its tip, through its shaft, all the way to the rotating vortex at its tail.

Yet no one could even clearly see the process of the transformation.

They only saw that the golden arrow, which had originally been about one meter long, had become less than one meter after striking Tushan Shanhe’s battle armor, with a rotating nine colored vortex trailing behind it for more than a meter.

But before Tushan Shanhe could even blink after finishing his words, it transformed into a nearly ten thousand meter tall peacock with both form and spirit intact.
