Chapter 1500 - 1499: God of Ninjas

Chapter 1500: Chapter 1499: God of Ninjas

Sword Prison, seventeenth layer.

The space is pitch-black, the ground shows a dark hue, everywhere are cracks with no sign of life.

The sky is shrouded in thick gloom, enveloping the entire space in a depressing atmosphere, making one feel despair.

"The guardian of the seventeenth layer is said to be the legendary God of Ninjas."

Ling Chen scanned the surroundings with a heavy gaze. Regardless of who this God of Ninjas may be, the mere title and position as the guardian of the seventeenth layer in the Sword Prison suggest that this person must be more terrifying than Master Gongben!

If not, why would the other be called the God of Ninjas?

After advancing about three hundred steps, Ling Chen’s gaze landed on a mountain peak ahead, where a figure shrouded in black clothing sat cross-legged.

The dark figure’s aura was extremely obscure, and the entire body was enveloped in black mist, making it impossible to discern his true appearance.

Suddenly, the black mist on the mountain peak stirred, and the figure within the black mist suddenly dissipated.

"Gone!"

Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed. The figure previously seated on the mountain peak had silently vanished without a trace.

As if evaporating.

Ling Chen heightened his awareness to its peak, listening and observing every direction, not missing the slightest sound or movement.

But despite such vigilance, Ling Chen still failed to detect any movement. Instead, the sky was gathering cumulonimbus clouds, and the thunder was flashing, yet down came a gentle drizzle.

The raindrops hit the ground, making a popping sound; the sound of rain almost masked all other sounds, leaving only the sound of rain in the entire world.

"This is bad."

Ling Chen’s expression changed. This sudden rain is not a natural phenomenon but likely a man-made environment created by the Shinobi God, aiming to confuse his senses and deprive him of insight into his surroundings!

However, just as Ling Chen realized this, it was already too late. Unknowingly, the dark figure on the mountain peak had appeared behind him.

Ling Chen abruptly turned, in a flash drawing his sword to defend in front. Almost simultaneously, a handprint from the dark figure struck the sword body, sending Ling Chen and his sword flying!

Bang!

His body was sent flying backward, and Ling Chen’s eyes were suddenly filled with surprise. In his field of view, the dark figure’s body unexpectedly split into three, three dark figures attacked from different directions at a staggering speed.

But that’s not all; as the three dark figures burst out, they continued to form handprints, and after finishing the handprints, each had a talisman in hand. Then the three figures simultaneously took a deep breath, followed by a blazing fire sprayed from their mouths.

"Fire Escape · Pillar of Fire!"

The flames exploded upon touching the talisman, becoming a thick pillar of fire, charging toward Ling Chen with great force!

"Even shadows can perform ninjutsu?"

Seeing this, Ling Chen was shocked, an unbelievable look appearing in his eyes. In theory, shadows are merely manifestations of True Qi, fundamentally incapable of performing ninjutsu. Yet, in the hands of the Shinobi God, such an important limitation seemed to be directly ignored?

"No wonder he is called the Shinobi God!"

Ling Chen couldn’t help but silently marvel, quickly drawing the Red Sky Sword with his left hand. The Twin Swords spun into two sword wheels in front, as the three pillars of fire crashed fiercely into the sword wheels, exploding with deafening sound.

Ling Chen felt an extreme heat radiating from the twin swords. The terrifying high temperature couldn’t even be endured by Ling Chen’s Saint Body, with wisps of smoke rising between the hands holding the swords, burnt black.

Flying hundreds of meters through the air, Ling Chen finally landed on the ground, swiftly channeling True Qi to his hands, expelling the burning energy from his body.

The Shinobi God is indeed the ancestor of the current Yingzhou ninja world. Seemingly ordinary ninjutsu in his hands could unleash such astonishing power.

While the modern ninja world in Yingzhou has greatly progressed, moving toward complexity, the prototypes still exist. Every ninjutsu in vogue now was developed and created since the era of the Shinobi God.

"Water Escape · Technique of the Ground Spring!"

"Thunder Escape · Wind Thunder Kunai!"

"Earth Escape · Sand Dust!"

Just as Ling Chen was contemplating, the three figures of the Shinobi God in mid-air formed seals once more, this time, astonishingly, three different elemental ninjutsu were unleashed simultaneously by the three dark figures, attacking Ling Chen from three directions!

Boom!

The ground suddenly exploded, spurting springs shooting towards the sky. In another area, a vast sweep of dust suddenly rose, forming a world-destroying tornado. In mid-air, a kunai emitting immense wind and thunder fluctuations expanded to hundreds of feet in size, descending from the sky, pinching toward Ling Chen!

"An opponent truly unmatched..."

Facing such nearly apocalyptic drastic attacks, Ling Chen took a deep breath, his expression extremely solemn. If Master Gongben previously offered a glimpse of hope for victory, then he sees none from this Shinobi God.

Yet even so, Ling Chen’s fighting spirit was not defeated. He, Ling Chen, is not one to be easily crushed; whether it’s the Shinobi God or even a Supreme Expert here, none would make Ling Chen retreat!

"Since no hope is visible, I will carve out hope with the swords in my hands!"

Ling Chen glances at the twin swords in his hands, a burst of astonishing will erupts from him. As long as the sword remains in hand, everything impossible becomes hopeful!

As the three rapid attacks swept in, Ling Chen’s twin swords suddenly moved. From both swords surged domineering strands of lightning, which ultimately condensed two giant black thunderballs around Ling Chen, unleashing a heart-stopping destructive wave from the black thunderballs!

Chh! Chh!

Ling Chen simultaneously moved both swords, the two thunderballs intertwined, fiercely shooting towards one of the Shinobi God’s mid-air figures, forcibly creating a path of destruction forward, as Ling Chen’s body chased the two interwoven black thunderballs at full speed towards the sky!

The entire seventeenth layer was engulfed in the aura of destruction!
