Chapter 402

~8 min read 1,440 words

Su Ming was too fast; the sonic boom was deafening, mud and dust splashed wherever he passed, and with just one step, he arrived beside Jiang Tianchi.

Su Ming faced these three Sixth-Turn killing blows together with him!

It could be said he was risking his life!

Jiang Tianchi was shocked.

"Su Ming kid, are you crazy?!"

He supported himself with all his might, his hair disheveled.

"The opponent has three Sixth-Turns; you can't intervene in this level of battle."

Su Ming heard this, but had no intention of retreating.

"Back then, you protected me in the Moon Howl Ghost Mountain dungeon, disregarding the risks, and killed a group of Fifth-Turns from the Zhang family," Su Ming's face was firm.

"Today, I, Su Ming, will advance and retreat with you, fighting hard against the three Sixth-Turns!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Tianchi's gaze was shocked.

Even if he had left the Black Kill Guild, Su Ming was not on the opponent's must-kill list and could have easily fled.

But he was still willing to die with him?

What kind of pure heart was this!

He didn't expect Su Ming to value his kindness from back then so much.

His kindness, clearly, had been repaid when he won first place in the tournament.

At this moment, Jiang Tianchi felt immense admiration for Su Ming.

Jiang Tianchi asked himself, if he had such peerless talent, he would definitely cherish his life like gold and wouldn't fight to the death here.

If he could survive today, in the future, Su Ming would probably create achievements he wouldn't even dare to imagine!

Jiang Tianchi roared.

He tried his best, channeling his blades even harder, shaking the three killing blows, not wanting Su Ming to die.

But human power eventually has its limits.

Gan Xiushou and Zhuo Mo, the Evil-Punishing Duo, had cultivation levels as high as 65, higher than Jiang Tianchi.

Coupled with joining forces with Guo Xin, they were invincible.

Just the next instant, all seventeen of his long blades were shattered and flew away.

The three killing blows like waves came directly toward him.

This time, there was no more defense.

Facing this desperate scene.

Su Ming's hands trembled, pulling all the flying swords over, densely arraying them in the high sky in front, protecting himself, Jiang Tianchi, and all the Black Kill members behind him!

Even without Black Kill, Su Ming wanted to slaughter Profound Mirror.

For no other reason than that he and Shen Yixi were almost killed by Profound Mirror assassins in a dungeon back then.

Moreover, in the Newcomer Combat Tournament, Profound Mirror's Shi Liang had used cheating methods; if Su Ming hadn't killed him in seconds with one sword, Su Ming would have almost lost the championship reward.

How could these bloody feuds not be avenged!

Guo Xin saw this scene and laughed with sarcasm.

"Hahaha, daring to participate in the battle without even reaching the half-step Sixth-Turn; it's like throwing an egg against a rock."

"Moon-Slashing, you won't even leave a corpse behind," he said, very confident in his killing blow.

"It's a pity that Shi Liang kid has already been expelled from the guild by me, so he won't have a chance to see you being killed!"

As a Sixth-Turn, he also knew better the principle that below the Sixth-Turn, everyone is an ant!

To him, Fifth-Turns were just slightly larger ants.

Su Ming was expressionless, his hands formed sword fingers, and he pinched a seal.

Those sword blades trembled, flashing with moonlight in the air.

This move was exactly the [Moonlight Sword Array]!

Facing the enemy's mockery, all words were pale.

Only moves could decide the outcome!

Su Ming stepped out casually, moving forward without hesitation, flying into the sword array in person, holding a sword in one hand.

Subsequently, all the sword blades began to slash and interweave rapidly in the sword array.

He himself also constantly changed the sword blades in his hand, becoming part of the sword qi, turning into a storm in the sword array, slashing and cutting wildly, his afterimages dazzling.

Moonlight dust flashed, brilliant like silver.

This sword array was not meant to block the three killing blows outside.

But to open the door!

The sword qi gradually guided the killing skill fluctuations of the three Venerables, gathering them toward the center of the sword array, toward Su Ming himself!

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

Whether friend or foe, everyone was stunned.

Su Ming's sword array was like a whirlpool.

The pure moonlight sword qi, like a tornado, gathered all the killing skills of the three Venerables, Gan Xiushou, Zhuo Mo, and Guo Xin, into the center.

The light-dark ball sank into the sword qi.

The evil law sword qi merged into the sword array.

Su Ming's sword qi had no intention of clashing with the three killing blows at all, but completely turned into a tool to gather them.

"How is this possible!?" Zhuo Mo raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise surging in his eyes.

"A junior, actually able to gather our skills and change the release trajectory?!" Zhuo Mo held his sword in the air, his face somewhat surprised.

"This move of mine should be enough to kill dozens of him!"

"Heh, it doesn't matter; perhaps he has some high-tier one-time item that boosts combat power," Gan Xiushou was extremely calm.

"Even if he gathers them, it's useless; he can't neutralize them and will be buried within!" Guo Xin's smile was hard to hide, extremely confident.

"He's just dying in Jiang Tianchi's place!"

"The outcome of this battle will still not change!"

Yan Ze looked at this scene, his gaze calm to the extreme; his brain was running at overclocked speed at this moment, calculating the trajectory of all the skills.

Judging from the realm gap, Su Ming was almost certainly going to die!

"Su Ming... is he going to sacrifice himself to absorb the opponent's skills!?" Yan Ze was extremely shocked in his heart and felt a bit of desolation.

But so what if he blocks this wave of offensive?

Profound Mirror still had three Venerables, who could continue to take action and suppress them; Black Kill and his side would still be wiped out!

"It's impossible for Su Ming not to have thought of this step; he must have his own plan!"

In the end, Yan Ze gritted his teeth and chose to believe in Su Ming.

Boom, boom, boom, hum, hum!

Sword hums flashed.

In the sword array, Su Ming's gaze was sharp, calm to the extreme.

Even with the 50-fold power and speed boost of the Origin Sword Body, his sword moves couldn't possibly withstand the killing blows of three Sixth-Turn Venerables head-on.

He was very clear about this point.

After all, they were three Venerables!

Neutralizing, shattering, or defending against their skills was absolutely impossible.

But... changing the trajectory of these skills was barely possible!

As long as he used all his strength and slashed enough times, he could deflect their killing skills, gradually gathering them toward himself, protecting everyone behind him!

But this meant that Su Ming's own body would be completely ravaged by these three killing blows!

All skills gathered toward the center, and Su Ming himself was in the center!

It looked like a sacrifice of his own life.

But in reality, it was not!

Su Ming was not a reckless person; he couldn't easily sacrifice his own life.

In fact, all of this was in Su Ming's plan.

He had a backup plan!

A sword is a blade of heart and intent.

It can be used for killing, and it can also be used for protection.

While the epic-level Moonlight Sword Array is fully channeled, a curse affix effect takes effect.

[Curse: Dark Law Residual Flow]

[Negative Effect: When you use this sword array skill, you will be eroded by black magic over time; when the limit is exceeded, your body will be immediately disintegrated by black magic, and the black magic erosion will disappear after you stop casting]

This negative effect was not the most important.

The most important thing was the buff provided by this curse!

[Buff Effect: During the use of this sword array, you ignore magic effects cast by Sixth-Turn and lower units]

That's right, Su Ming didn't intend to use the Hidden God Step to ignore the opponent's killing blows.

Because the spiritual power consumption for that was too high, and he would find it difficult to face the subsequent battle.

So his choice was to use this curse affix to ignore the three magic-type killing blows!
