Chapter 113

After all, souls are stored within the Lord's crystal,

and death can be resurrected,

so what is the need for strength?

At this moment,

just the speed of Tian Xuannu's travel, the strength she displayed,

made all the new lords present feel a sense of pressure.

Close, nearing Su Yu's territory!

The last fog barrier.

Boom—!

The attacks from the eight arrow defense towers erupted forth.

It wasn't shooting arrows,

it was like cannon fire, like thunder shaking the nine heavens!

Eight dark shadows streaked past like flashes of lightning.

"Holy crap!"

"This... is an arrow defense tower?"

"Damn, how can it be so exaggerated?!"

"Scared me..."

Many lords who didn't understand Su Yu, and some alien lords who joined just to watch,

were dumbfounded.

The fierce arrows tore through the air, stirring up several gusts of wind shockwaves.

The ground, fragile like a water's surface,

layered and cracked because of the arrow surges,

lifting up several trenches.

However,

these arrows carrying an unstoppable momentum halted before Tian Xuannu's fair hand,

spinning weakly.

"This can even be blocked?! 960"

"Too exaggerated."

"Perhaps it has reached city-destroying level..."

"Probably not, maybe she used a specialized item to defend against arrows."

Below the arena, there was a clamor of voices.

Unexpectedly, as a lord, Tian Xuannu's strength could be so formidable.

Su Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Tian Xuannu.

To so easily withstand arrow defense towers with over a thousand attack power,

it seemed the opponent came prepared.

"Everyone sees you as arrogant."

"I see you, as laughable."

"Did you pour all your resources into these eight arrow defense towers?"

"Pretending to be leisurely and refined, yet actually already using your full power."

"And I, have only revealed a tip of the iceberg."

Tian Xuannu stretched out a hand, crushing the arrow in her grasp.

She coldly looked down upon Su Yu.

Mystic Armor Protection, reduces arrow damage by 60%.

Arrow Repulsion Aura, reduces arrow damage by 30%.

Having used these two abilities, she had no fear of Su Yu.

Her gaze carried a touch of frivolity, and nine parts mockery, watching Su Yu take the bow from behind him.

Territory buildings are arrow attacks, the weapon used is also a bow and arrows,

she had guessed long ago that Su Yu's talent belonged to the type that enhanced arrow attacks.

Although proud, she wasn't one to be conceited and self-important,

after all, it was an Epic-grade bow and arrows, after all, those extraordinary arrow defense towers,

deserved her attention.

To win against Su Yu steadily, and obtain the bow in his hand,

such preparations were necessary.

"I used my full power?"

Su Yu grasped the [Cloud Devil Flame Bow], calmly looking at Tian Xuannu.

Among the new lords,

no one was qualified, deserving his full power.

"Who do you think you are?" Xia Tianxuan Nu looked at Su Yu with disgust.

Su Yu's calmness made her somewhat irritated.

She saw no trace of worry, fear, alarm, or panic from him.

This was not how a minor figure should behave.

"Su Yu, from Blue Star, a newly appointed lord, human."

Su Yu introduced himself, his increasingly serene voice further irritating Xia Tianxuan Nu.

"Shut up!"

"Who allowed you to speak to me like this!"

"I am the Saintess of the human race; you are merely a minor figure!"

Xia Tianxuan Nu could no longer suppress the anger within her.

Her delicate eyebrows arched, filled with fury.

She wanted Su Yu to regret deeply, to panic and fall defeated before her.

To regret not willing to hand over the [Cloud Heaven Demon Flame Bow],

To regret daring to have Bai Bai Xiaowei refuse her.

Hearing Xia Tianxuan Nu's words,

Su Yu's lips curled into a trace of frivolity, seemingly not taking Xia Tianxuan Nu seriously at all.

This action further provoked Xia Tianxuan Nu's heart.

Over these years,

who upon seeing her did not respectfully address her as Saintess?

What kind of attitude is this?

A marginal product from the Seventh Universe,

truly thinks being a bit lucky makes you a significant figure?

"Su Yu, I dislike you very much."

Xia Tianxuan Nu forcefully suppressed the rising anger in her heart,

too many people were watching this confrontation,

she needed to control her facial expressions,

to display her own strength.

"Really coincidental, I dislike you too as well." Su Yu grinned.

As his words fell,

Xia Tianxuan Nu's chest, rising and falling, gradually calmed.

She looked at Su Yu playfully: "So, you intended to provoke me in this manner?"

"Knowing you'll surely lose, why bother?"

"The struggle of a nobody like you looks utterly ridiculous in my eyes."

"A nobody is always a nobody."

"Seeing even a tiny bit of profit, you'll struggle and scramble for it."

"Sold a bit of water, gained a lot of territory energy?"

"Have a legendary hero?"

"Possess an epic-grade bow?"

"You think that qualifies you to be compared to me on an equal footing?"

"When I invited you to battle, you probably were so excited you couldn't sleep in your bed last night, right?"

"Because you finally have the qualification to stand on the same stage as me."

Xia Tianxuan Nü looked at Su Yu and said seriously, "Su Yu, I tell you, no matter how much you strive to climb up, you'll never reach the level where I stand."

"The territory energy you lack is, for me, nearly infinite."

"Any treasure, any material, once discovered, is supplied to me first."

"Only you are an exception."

As she spoke, Xia Tianxuan Nü laughed mockingly, "I'm curious why you refused to give that epic-grade bow to me?"

"Because you don't deserve it," Su Yu said, drawing the bowstring of the [Cloud and Devil Flame Bow].

"I don't deserve it?"

Xia Tianxuan Nü was amused.

"Do you know that I represent the human race?"

"My participation in the Myriad Races Ranking Battle determines the human race's status among all worlds."

"It decides the human race's resource allocation for the next thousand years across the worlds!"

"If I don't deserve it, who does?"

Watching Su Yu draw the bowstring,

she sneered disdainfully, "Don't waste your effort."

"Just deploying arrow defense towers doomed your defeat."

"Who do you think you are? Not deploying troops or heroes, just imitating Lord Yue Luo won't elevate your level."

"Then even if I deploy nothing, I can still crush you."

"Crush me?" Su Yu drew the [Cloud and Devil Flame Bow] to full draw,

and curiously asked, "Are you above level 20?"

"Ha."

Xia Tianxuan Nü scoffed lightly, "Of course not, what of it?"

In the Myriad Worlds battlefield, typically one needs to develop for over a year to reach level 20,

mainly limited by the too little experience obtainable from wild monsters.

And the difficulty of cultivating experience trees.

"Let me tell you, broaden your horizons properly."

"Mysterious Armor Protection, reduces arrow damage by 60%."

"Arrow Resistance Aura, reduces arrows..."

Xia Tianxuan Nü didn't finish her words as Su Yu released the black arrow from his hand.

"Since you're not level 20, then go die."

A light, floating sentence rang beside Xia Tianxuan Nü's ear,

yet at this moment,

she simply had no time to pay attention to Su Yu's words.

Her entire focus was on that arrow leaving the string!

Every cell in her body told her,

death was approaching!

Impossible, this is clearly just an arrow!!

What kind of arrow, after reducing damage by 90%, could still pose a danger to her?!?

"[Heavenly Mysterious Nine Transformations]!!"

Xia Tianxuan Nü's figure instantly split from one into nine,

then rapidly retreated backward.

In an instant, she retreated dozens of miles.

However,

that arrow's flight speed was bizarre,

moreover it seemed like it had eyes, locking onto her.

Penetrating through layers of illusions, it rushed straight toward her true body!

No matter how she dodged, she couldn't avoid it,

any obstruction only made the arrow's speed pause slightly, impossible to stop it!

Xia Tianxuan Nü dared not turn again, could only retreat along a straight line.

Because she discovered, that black arrow's speed didn't change at all when turning!

Seeing the distance getting closer and closer.

Her clear, watery eyes suddenly narrowed slightly.

She kept throwing out items using her terminal.

【Temporary Armor Talisman】, reduces arrow damage received by 500 points, lasts 60 seconds.

【Special Arrow Protection Talisman】, reduces arrow damage received by 50 points, lasts 1 hour.

【Bow God's Hope】, reduces arrow damage received by 1000 points, lasts 60 seconds.

……

A pile of items targeting arrows kept being thrown out.

Layers of light brightened around Xia Tianxuan Nu's body,

protecting her like an eggshell.

Under the effects of 【Profound Armor Protection】 and 【Arrow Resistance Aura】,

her percentage reduction against arrow damage had already reached the limit — 90%,

now she could only keep stacking fixed value reductions.

Then, even after stacking so much, that sense of threat in her heart still hadn't dissipated.

What is going on?!

Why is stacking so much having no effect at all?!

Could it be that his one arrow surpasses even the nation-destroying level?

Unconsciously,

Xia Tianxuan Nu had retreated a thousand miles, back to where the territory crystal was located.

Suddenly, her eyes brightened,

deploy territory buildings!!!

Layers of walls rose,

(Ma Nuo)

A legendary hero, holding a greatsword, blocked in front of her,

the steel fortress of the lord crystal rose, protecting her and the lord crystal.

However,

when the black arrow touched the walls,

when the black arrow met the legendary hero's greatsword,

when the black arrow met the steel fortress,

everything could only be described with four words:

Crushing everything like withered grass!!!
