Chapter 316: Divine Sense Thorn

Zhang Nuo and Ye Yuemiao stood side by side, facing three demon cultivators. At this moment, blue light flashed violently on the Shui Jiao's fists; he could no longer suppress the impulse in his heart. He truly wanted to tear Zhang Nuo directly into two halves to vent the hatred in his heart!

"Three fellow Daoists of the Sea Flood Dragon Clan, Magic Treasures have no eyes. If you three get hurt, don't hold a grudge!"

Ye Yuemiao's nimble eyes flashed, revealing a hint of a mischievous smile; she said this to provoke the demon cultivators! Sure enough, the three demon cultivators all grinned from ear to ear, and the short one among them said:

"Hehe! Little girl, you look delicate and tender, I didn't expect you to be so arrogant! Let's see later who will be crawling on the ground looking for their teeth!"

Seeing the two engaging in a war of words, Zhang Nuo gave a cold snort, his figure retreated several zhang away, and at the same time, dozens of Flying Swords surged out from his body, pointing at the Shui Jiao, he said:

"Shui Jiao! This time I will make you lose and be convinced! Come on!"

Seeing Zhang Nuo calling him out by name, the Shui Jiao naturally would not play the coward. He kicked the ground hard with his soles, his body shot out like an arrow, and his rotating fists whistled with the wind as he smashed toward Zhang Nuo.

At this moment, Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense stirred, and a dozen Flying Swords flashed with spiritual light, turning into more than ten White Threads, drawing graceful arcs in mid-air and attacking the Shui Jiao from different directions!

Boom! Boom!

Two muffled sounds came; the Shui Jiao threw two punches in succession, knocking the leading Flying Swords far away. Then, his giant mouth opened slightly, his throat rolled, and with a strange 'Awoo' cry, waves of sound were emitted from his mouth. These sound waves were invisible and intangible, yet they sent ripples through the surrounding air!

The remaining Flying Swords, as soon as they were hit by the sound waves, lost their spiritual light and were frozen in mid-air! Seeing Zhang Nuo and the Shui Jiao start fighting, the tall and short demon cultivators looked at each other and smiled, then charged toward Ye Yuemiao!

"Fellow Daoist Ye, just keep them occupied! I will finish off the guy in front of me immediately!"

While his figure flickered, Zhang Nuo sent a voice transmission to Ye Yuemiao. If he were only dealing with the Shui Jiao, he would have full confidence in winning, but if another demon cultivator joined in, his chances of winning would decrease by a few points.

Having previously witnessed the girl's Instant Movement technique using the bronze mirror, Zhang Nuo believed that she would have absolutely no problem protecting herself between the two demon beasts!

Ye Yuemiao just nodded slightly and did not say anything more, because these two tall and short demon cultivators seemed to have undergone some special training; their coordination during battle was simply seamless! After a few exchanges, the girl felt a bit strained!

She flipped her palm lightly and revealed the bronze mirror, hanging it high above her head. As ten thousand rays of Golden Light descended, the girl's figure blurred and disappeared from where she stood, appearing the next moment several zhang away from the demon cultivators!

Seeing this, the two demon cultivators let out a long howl, their figures flashed, and they charged toward the girl again!

Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense sensed that Ye Yuemiao was temporarily out of danger, so he poured his entire heart and soul into the battle with the Shui Jiao.

At this time, the Shui Jiao had already manifested his true form. His massive body, three zhang long, was not affected in speed at all. With a wide open mouth, a blue beam of light as thick as a bowl surged toward Zhang Nuo.

"Well come!"

With a light whistle, Black Butterfly Wings suddenly appeared on Zhang Nuo's back. With a 'swish', he left an afterimage in place to dodge the beam attack. Immediately after, he formed hand seals, and the dozen or so Flying Swords were simultaneously spirit-transformed. The momentum was extremely terrifying; a dozen Silver Dragons, each a zhang long, circled and danced around Zhang Nuo.

Seeing this scene, even the Baijiaowang standing on a small hill not far away was secretly shocked! A young cultivator at the Golden Core Late Stage could actually spirit-transform so many Flying Swords at once; it was truly unimaginable! In fact, he did not understand Zhang Nuo's background; if he knew that there were five Divine Seas operating simultaneously inside the opponent's body, even this Flood Dragon King would have his jaw drop to the ground!

As the dozen Silver Dragons circled, two of them charged toward the Shui Jiao first! At the same time, wrapped within the numerous Silver Dragons, Zhang Nuo's Black Butterfly Wings suddenly enveloped him, the surrounding space fluctuated, and he disappeared from the spot!

Boom! Boom!

Having suffered once, the Shui Jiao would not let the Silver Dragons get close to him again. Immediately, two blue beams of light sprayed from his mouth, directly knocking the two giant dragons back to their original form! Then, he swung his tail, smashing heavily toward where the remaining dragons were! He thought Zhang Nuo was still under the protection of the giant dragons.

But just as the Shui Jiao's tail struck out, space fluctuated above his head, and a pitch-black object suddenly appeared. When the Butterfly Wings unfolded to reveal Zhang Nuo's body, the Shui Jiao was greatly shocked! He raised his head, just about to launch an attack toward the sky, but at this moment, a cold sneer appeared on the corner of Zhang Nuo's mouth. With his eyes slightly narrowed, a powerful force of Divine Sense, as if it had physical form, transformed into a wisp of white energy an inch in size at the center of his brow!

Almost without any sound, this white energy rushed toward the Shui Jiao's head! The lightning-fast white energy reached the Shui Jiao in the blink of an eye! Although he tried hard to sense the changes in the white energy, as soon as the Shui Jiao's Divine Sense scanned the white energy, it was like a clay ox entering the sea, with no response at all.

What was even more terrifying was that the Shui Jiao could not feel any killing intent in the white energy; it was as if it had been born out of thin air, unaffected by any external forces, and even attacking it with a Magic Treasure would not change its form!

Swish!

With a light flash, the inch-long white energy drilled directly into the Shui Jiao's skull. What happened the next moment made everyone gasp; the Shui Jiao, who had been full of vigor, suddenly transformed into human form, clutching his head with both hands, letting out shrill wails, and rolling back and forth on the ground! He looked extremely painful!

Zhang Nuo floated quietly in mid-air, watching everything below, feeling an indescribable joy in his heart. The move he had just used was learned from the 'Inner Scene Manual', and this move was called 'Divine Sense Thorn!', a technique that uses Divine Sense to attack.

Divine Sense is formless and intangible, and by itself does not possess any offensive capability, but through the cultivation of the 'Inner Scene Manual', Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense had become powerful to an incredible degree; among those of the same rank, his Divine Sense was almost twice that of others.

With a powerful Divine Sense as a foundation, Zhang Nuo could extract a portion of his Divine Sense for offensive use. 'Divine Sense Thorn' was one such method: strengthening and condensing Divine Sense into a form that looks harmless to humans and animals, but once it attacks into the opponent's body, the formless and imageless Divine Sense will instantly erupt with terrifying power, temporarily destroying the enemy's mind!

However, this attack is not permanent; it only lasts for a short period. As soon as the opponent's Divine Sense recovers, the Divine Sense Zhang Nuo injected into the opponent's body will be immediately expelled.

To make a 'Divine Sense Thorn' strike successful, one must seize the opportunity and not let the opponent have any precautions; otherwise, even if the attack hits, the effect will be greatly reduced!

With no time to think too much, Zhang Nuo took advantage of the moment the Shui Jiao was hit, his Divine Sense stirred slightly, and the remaining Silver Dragons swarmed up, directly wrapping the Shui Jiao within them!

"Awoo~~!"

A shrill sound like a ghost crying was emitted from the Shui Jiao's mouth. Even with his tough physical body, he had no way to resist the dozen spirit-transformed Flying Swords slashing at him! The wounds on his body were too numerous to count, and the blood instantly turned him into a bloody, mangled demon beast!

As soon as the effect of the 'Divine Sense Thorn' attack passed, a dazzling blue light erupted from the Shui Jiao's body, shaking away all the dozen spirit-transformed Flying Swords. The power of these Flying Swords had already been mostly consumed, and once subjected to a powerful attack, they immediately reverted to their original appearance.

The Shui Jiao, who had just stood up, with blood still dripping onto the ground, felt his inner anger burn to the peak. It looked like the loss he suffered this time was even greater than the last! Having lost great face in front of the many demon cultivators of the Sea Flood Dragon Clan, in his rage, he wanted to rush into the sky and fight Zhang Nuo to the death!

But just as his body stood straight, a silver light suddenly flashed before his eyes, and a long, narrow Silver Ruler extended rapidly from Zhang Nuo's palm, pressing directly against the Shui Jiao's throat!

"You lost! If you are not convinced, I will take your life now!"

Zhang Nuo's Butterfly Wings flapped gently behind him, his face extremely serious; it did not look like he was joking! The Shui Jiao indeed did not dare to act rashly, his eyes burning with rage, white energy constantly puffing from his nose, but no matter how unconvinced he was, he did not dare to launch an attack easily!

The Silver Ruler flashed with cold light, only two inches away from his throat; the Shui Jiao could even smell the metallic scent coming from the ruler!

Seeing that the opponent indeed did not dare to move, Zhang Nuo sneered, flipped the palm holding the 'Measuring Heaven Ruler' lightly, and with a 'slap' sound, the Shui Jiao was sent flying nearly a hundred zhang away by the ruler!

Rolling to his feet from the ground, the Shui Jiao still wanted to rush up and fight Zhang Nuo to the death, but at this moment, the voice of the Baijiaowang on the nearby small hill rang out.

"Come back! If he hadn't shown mercy, you would have perished long ago!"

Hearing his leader's words, the Shui Jiao puffed two streams of white energy from his nose, glared at Zhang Nuo with hatred, and then flew toward where the Baijiaowang was on the small hill!

In a short time, Zhang Nuo had subdued the Shui Jiao, which caused the crowd watching from the encampment to burst into a loud cheer! Even the composed Ye Bufan was stroking his white beard and nodding continuously!

It seems Ye Yuemiao's judgment is good; this green-robed cultivator may not be old, but his divine abilities are not small! His strikes are clean and neat, without any hesitation! Especially that strange white energy attack, what on earth is it? It looks light and airy, yet its power is immense; after being hit, it can make a Sixth-Rank demon beast suffer so much! It is truly mind-boggling!

The Baijiaowang glanced at the Shui Jiao who had returned to his side, let out a cold snort through his nose, and did not say anything more. Now, all his hopes were pinned on the two tall and short demon cultivators!

At this moment, these two demon cultivators had surrounded Ye Yuemiao; the tall demon cultivator held a water-splitting fork in his hand, while the short demon cultivator carried a strange little spear!

"Fellow Daoist Ye, no need to panic! Zhang is here!"

Following the words, Zhang Nuo rushed directly above the two demon cultivators!
