Chapter 117: Successful return
Assassination cultivation techniques had very strong explosive power, so it was often very life threatening!
Not showing oneself, only making a single move which would decide the fight!
Chu Tongwen was astonished, but he still gave a cold smile.
“You want to hide from my eyes with just this technique?”
“Not to mention a little brat like you, even if Wan Wuyi came at me with his large accomplishment Yin Wind Sword Art, wanting to assassinate a person like me is not as simple as you think! I’ll let you see just how strong my Seven Paged Golden Book Source Spirit is!”
Chu Tongwen seemed to have no fear.
The spirit energy glowing around his body increased in intensity.
Spirit energy began to pour into the Seven Paged Golden Book Source Spirit and countless runes began to spring forth. It once again flipped pages and an eye shaped ruin came from the book.
“Fantasy Shattering Golden Eye!”
Chu Tongwen gave an angry roar as runes appeared in his eyes, this was obviously the Golden Book Source Spirit’s ability. His pupils became long and thin as an intense glow came from them. Finally it covered his entire eyeball and his eyes turned into glowing lamps, releasing a strong aura.
This pair of eyes seemed to have a strong strength.
If an ordinary demon beast met his gaze, it would be destroyed right away.
Other than that, it also increased his investigative abilities. His abilities to break through illusions and stealth abilities, were all increased several times.
Chu Tongwen was a very versatile person. Fighting, defending, close combat, reconnaissance, or healing others, there was nothing he couldn’t do. Because of this, he could deal with any situation and any kind of opponent!
But when Chu Tongwen confidently used his ability, he was still surprised!
A vague gray shadow filled his surroundings, constantly changing and there was no way to track it. There was no way to find where it was or find the path it was moving in.
Damn!
What was happening?
Even if it was the Large Accomplishment Yin Wind Sword Art, he could at least track its path!
This fellow’s cultivation technique had clearly not reached the Large Accomplishment Realm, yet he could hide himself to this extent! Even Chu Tongwen could not pinpoint his location. Chu Tongwen had never experienced this kind of situation before!
The Netherworld Flickering Flame Sword was truly incomparably powerful!
Once it was displayed, the user would enter into the Netherworld, making it hard for people to track them!
At this moment, Chu Tian was just like a god of death hiding in the shadows. He could send out a fatal attack at any minute and no one would be able to notice it!
“This is bad!”
Chu Tongwen felt a strong restless feeling, so he activated the dragon cover.
He quickly cancelled out his previous cultivation technique and switched out for the golden cover, completely covering his body.
Under the golden glow of the barrier, a terrifying killing intent appeared from the Netherworld!
A ray of sword light combined with the Netherworld Ghost Flame turned into a small and fast light that ruthlessly slammed against the golden cover.
Dang!
A large crack appeared in the golden cover!
After this sword light was stopped, all that remained was the Netherworld Ghost Flames. It made the golden cover become dimmer by a bit.
Chu Tongwen broke out in a cold sweat as he let out a sigh of relief, “Humph, only so-so. Your sword art still can’t break through my defenses!”
Every assassination cultivation technique.
It take a while to gather one’s strength and then it would all be released in a single fatal blow!
If this strike had no way of breaking through an opponent’s defenses, then that would signify the one’s lose!
Chu Tian had the Demon God’s Sword Source Spirit and his sword art was also very strong, it was hard to imagine how strong this one slash was. However, his cultivation was still too low and he couldn’t break through Chu Tongwen’s strong defensive abilities.
If this brat was in the 2nd Awakened Soul Layer, he probably wouldn’t be his opponent!
Chu Tongwen wasn’t happy for long.
Sou!
Another burning sword light came across the floor. It was a long and quick sword glow that caused a trail of deep flame marks on the ground.
Dang!
Another slash fell on the golden cover!
Another sword mark was formed and the two sword marks overlapped, forming a large burning cross. The flames continued to burn, growing stronger and stronger, slowly weakening the defensive barrier.
The third slash.
The fourth slash!
The human could not be seen, only the continuous sword light!
Chu Tian had completely disappeared and only sword light continued to come from all directions. From all directions, falling upon the golden cover.
Three rays, four rays, five rays……
More and more cracks appeared on Chu Tongwen’s golden cover. Because the Netherworld Ghost Flame continued to burn on it, he could not repair it in time. Slowly he could not help revealing an amazed expression!
This was impossible!
This was clearly an assassination technique!
Just like the endless clouds or flowing water, it continued to grow, endlessly growing!
As more and more rays of sword light slammed against the golden cover, more and more cracks began to form.
“No!”
“No!”
The golden cover was shattered to pieces!
Chu Tongwen trembled as he spat out a mouthful of blood!
A sword light of death covered in blue and white flames turned into a single beam of light. This sharp as a needle beam of light shot right at Chu Tongwen’s forehead.
If this attack was to hit!
Chu Tongwen would gain a new hole in his head!
“Stay your sword!”
A deep sound rang out as General Xiong loudly shouted out. A terrifying aura filled the air, making Chu Tian appear from his hiding spot.
A single sword that was like a piece of ice was covered in blue and white flames.
The sword point was right in front of Chu Tongwen’s forehead, only thirty two centimeters away.
Chu Tongwen was so scared that his soul had almost left his body.
General Xiong walked over and said, “Since it’s come to this, you can now stop. Chu Tongwen, you should understand just how powerful this little friend is, is there anything else you want to say?”
Chu Tongwen’s face filled with anger, “Humph! Just wait and see!”
He was too embarrassed to stay here any longer, so he turned and left.
Chu Tian’s face was also very pale. He had freely used the «Netherworld Flame Sword»’s Netherworld Flickering Flame Sword, but the consumption was too high. Chu Tian had almost used up all the spirit energy in his body, even standing was hard for him.
Fighting a 3rd Layer Awakened Soul Cultivator right now was too draining.
Chu Tongwen had more spirit energy compared to Chu Tian, so if he decided to continue fighting it out, it would be hard to tell who would win. But, Chu Tian was very satisfied because his «Netherworld Flame Sword» was only in the small accomplishment realm. This ancient sword art, it was not the slightest bit inferior to the «Starlight Immortal Body».
This General Xiong was not simple, he was clearly stronger than Chu Tongwen!
Otherwise it would be impossible to force Chu Tian out of hiding with just a single roar!
General Xiong looked at Chu Tian with approving eyes, “Don’t blame me for stopping you, it would be bad for you to kill Chu Tongwen! The person backing him is Chu Xinghe!”
“Chu Xinghe?”
This was not the first time he heard this name.
“You might be very strong, but it’s still too early for you to fight Chu Xinghe!” General Xiong sized up Chu Tian, “You’re close to your limit, right?”
“So what?”
“In the past, Chu Xinghe suppressed his cultivation to the first layer and used only a single slash to defeat Chu Tongwen!”
Lin Mu and Fang Han were both amazed!
Brother Lu had defeated Chu Tongwen, but it had taken him six slices. This was already a heaven defying feat that already surpassed a normal person’s imagination, but no one would have thought that Chu Xinghe would surpass him!
“Of course, after Chu Tongwen has followed Chu Xinghe for a year now, his strength has increased by no small amount. One shouldn’t think he is at the same level as before. But even so, there is quite a large difference between you and Chu Xinghe. After all, Chu Xinghe is the head of the Central State Four Young Masters and he has obtained an ancient sword inheritance, making him the person with the strongest attacks in Central State!”
How powerful!
Truly worthy of being the most dazzling talent in Central State.
Lin Mu and Fang Han would have no way to resist.
“Chu Xinghe has a very overbearing manner, he does not accept any kind of lose. Even if it was a subordinate, he still would not allow it. Chu Tongwen losing to a trivial 1st Layer Awakened Soul Cultivator like you, he definitely wouldn’t dare report this back.”
General Xiong continued by saying.
“Of course, Chu Tongwen is also a very arrogant person, he definitely will not admit he lost to you,”
Alright!
It’s better that way!
Chu Tian wasn’t afraid of Chu Xinghe.
He had chopped of Ye Tianlang’s arm and provoked Ye Wudao, he wasn’t afraid of another Chu Xinghe.
Chu Tongwen’s strength was only so-so, Chu Tian believed that soon, he would be able to take care of him. A person that couldn’t threaten him, it didn’t matter if he was alive or dead!
He would have to fight with Chu Xinghe sooner or later, only his cultivation technique’s realms were too low, so now was not the time.
“Many thanks General Xiong!”
“No need to be courteous. You’ve achieved a large accomplishment by stopping the revival of the Heavenly Demon Cult. If there is anything you want, then just tell me. This General will do his best to satisfy you!”
Chu Tian did not have anything he need and he didn’t want to reveal his true status here, so he humbly said, “General Xiong’s good will, we will respectfully decline. We have already had a good harvest, so we do not need any other rewards.”
The little fox had eaten all the cultivation resources already.
The other things had all been moved away by Lin Mu and Fang Han.
General Xiong waved his large hand, “You must still be awarded, so come with me to Central State. How about I recommend you to become the Vanguard General of Central State? This is a position with real power, you can command a large army of fifty thousand people!”
Lin Mu and Fang Han were both scared silly.
Central State Vanguard General?
This person surnamed Xiong was truly too generous!
General Xiong saw that Chu Tian’s power was truly frightening, so he generously did not hesitate to offer him this kind of big position. He wanted Chu Tian to hold a position in Central State.
It had to be known, once a person became the Vanguard General, he would be one of the top characters in Central State!
Who would have thought that Chu Tian would just shrug, “I’m very sorry, but I’m used to being free and unrestrained, I’m not suited to the life of an officer. So I’ll can only decline General Xiong’s good intentions!”
General Xiong was worried!
How could he let this happen?
If he allowed this kind of talent to walk away, who knows which power would recruit him? Then it would truly be a tragedy!
Chu Tian continued, “General Xiong, we will meet again. Moreover, it will be very soon.”
General Xiong had no other ways, he could only say, “I’ll give you three the position of roaming cavalry general. This is a very relaxed position and won’t interfere with your personal work.”
A roaming cavalry general was a military position.
But it did not have any power in the army.
So, in most situations, it was only just a status. With this status, they would be considered a member of the military. In most cases, it would make things much easier.
General Xiong lead people to begin cleaning up.
Chu Tian did not have any plans to stay any longer, so he prepared to to bring Miracle Commerce’s merchandise back to South Sky City. So he prepared to bid farewell to Lin Mu and Fang Han.
Lin Mu looked at Chu Tian with a face of admiration, “Brother Lu, I have an issue that I don’t know how to ask. Since you’ve giving up the military position, I can see you’re a person that likes his freedom. Being a mercenary is a very free job, do you want to join our mercenary group?”
Become a mercenary?
Chu Tian smiled.
Lin Mu quickly said, “I believe you’re more suited to being the mercenary group’s leader than me. If you agree to join us, we are willing to be follow your lead!”
Chu Tian definitely did not have plans to become a mercenary.
But, Chu Tian began to think that with Miracle Commerce starting to grow bigger, they were indeed lacking an armed force. If a large company did not have its own armed forces, they would face a very difficult situation in the future.
Miracle Commerce did need to train a mercenary group.
“Being the leader, I’m not interested.” Chu Tian said this and suddenly paused for second, “But, if you’re interested, we can cooperate in the future. We can work together on a huge enterprise.”
Lin Mu and Fang Han were stunned, then they revealed excited expressions. If they could cooperate with this kind of person, it would truly be a large fortune for them, “What would we need to do?”
“Now is not the right time.” Chu Tian gave a mysterious smile, “Return to Central State first. After a while, we will meet again. At that time, you will learn who I really am. Naturally you’ll understand what I am talking about!”
The two of them looked at each other.
This was too mysterious. They couldn’t understand it at all!
Chu Tian had accomplished his mission.
Not only had he recovered the goods that Tianchen Commerce had lost, he had also gained quite a bit. Now he had no reason to stay here any longer.
He rushed on his way back.
Returning to South Sky City as fast as possible.
