Chapter 1627: Chapter 1623: The Thought of Snatching the Bow with Ease

In the midst of Shen Luo’s chant, a bright, unparalleled green light suddenly burst forth from his body, almost too dazzling to look at directly, as though a small green sun had emerged, ready to unleash some supernatural power.

However, at that moment, a dark cloud that could blot out the sun and sky appeared out of nowhere from the darkness ahead, sweeping toward him with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it neared, and a pitch-black dragon claw the size of a house descended from the sky, aiming to grab Shen Luo.

Nie Caizhu reacted extremely quickly, with a flash of golden light from the great bow in her hand, she fired a giant golden arrow a dozen feet long that pierced through the black dragon claw as if stabbing through paper.

Boom!

The golden giant arrow then exploded, tearing the dark dragon claw to shreds.

However, five pitch-black sharp claws shot out from the dragon claw, penetrating Nie Caizhu’s defenses and striking Shen Luo’s protective cover of the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet, producing a thunderous boom like a clap of thunder.

Shen Luo was sent flying backward, protected by the Thousand Cup Golden Goblet, unharmed, but his spellcasting was interrupted.

His expression darkened, and with a spread of his five fingers, he struck out into the void.

Three Chun Yang swords shot out from the tips of his fingers, transforming into three hundred-foot-long flaming Sword Rainbows, slashing at the dark cloud.

Within the Sword Rainbows, the phantom of a Golden Crow could be seen, each of the three flying swords carrying the spirit of a Golden Crow, as if three ancient Golden Crows were reborn, effortlessly tearing open the dark cloud and evaporating much of it.

A black flood dragon emerged from the torn cloud, over a hundred feet in length and wrapped in a strong aura of darkness, vastly superior to any of the previous dark beasts.

However, the black dragon’s body was somewhat damaged, clearly the work of the three Golden Crow Sword Rainbows.

A flash of golden light passed through Nie Caizhu’s eyes, and she once again pulled the golden great bow in her hands.

The golden light surged wildly on the bow, and another giant golden arrow condensed out, many times larger than the previous one, with many mysterious golden witch texts swirling around it, shooting out with an earth-shattering force and leaving a dark streak in the void.

Seeing the power of the golden arrow, the black flood dragon showed a look of shock in its eyes, quickly dodging to the side, and at the same time opening its mouth to spew out a stream of Black Qi, rolling towards the golden giant arrow.

But the golden arrow was too fast, flickering past the rolling black qi, slightly changing its direction and striking the black dragon’s head with unerring accuracy.

With a “boom”! The black dragon’s head exploded, turning into a golden sun over a dozen feet in size, forcing back all the surrounding darkness, and with golden lightning shooting out from within the sun, striking buildings below and easily destroying large sections of them.

The three adjacent Golden Crow Sword Rainbows also came slashing over, cutting the black dragon’s carcass into several pieces, killing it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Perhaps it was the sheer might of Nie Caizhu’s arrow, or perhaps it was the killing of the black dragon, but the surrounding dark beasts were all frightened away, not attacking immediately.

Shen Luo recalled the three Sword Rainbows, looking at the golden great bow in Nie Caizhu’s hands with a hint of surprise on his face.

He wasn’t surprised by the power of the golden light arrow, for Nie Caizhu had inherited Hou Yi’s Power, and though she could only exert a small part of it at the moment, killing the black dragon was to be expected. What astonished him was that the arrow was able to change direction mid-flight.

This place was under a prohibition that prevented the use of Divine Sense to guide the arrow’s trajectory. Controlling Magical Treasures was acceptable because they had been long cultivated with Soul Imprints within, which the prohibitions here could not isolate.

That golden arrow had formed in less than half a breath’s time, impossible to have formed a Soul Imprint so quickly, and Shen Luo was quite certain that the arrow did not carry any of Nie Caizhu’s divine sense power.

“Just now, that arrow was called Shoot the Sun Supernatural Power. As long as the target is locked by ‘Golden Eyes,’ the arrow I shoot will automatically lock onto them, not stopping until it hits,” Nie Caizhu seemed to understand Shen Luo’s surprise and explained calmly through a mental message.

“Hou Yi’s supernatural abilities are indeed extraordinary,” Shen Luo nodded slightly.

“It’s a pity that the Ruo Mu Divine Bow was taken by Wu Luo. The Shoot the Sun Supernatural Power combined with the Ruo Mu Divine Bow can unleash its greatest strength,” Nie Caizhu said calmly.

“No matter, Wu Luo is here. We will just have to find a way to retrieve that Ruo Mu Divine Bow later,” Shen Luo said with a slight smile, as if claiming the Ruo Mu Divine Bow would be as easy as lifting his hand.

Nie Caizhu, upon hearing these words, was momentarily startled out of her indifferent expression.

Just at this moment, the darkness around them grew deeper once again as hordes of dark beasts lunged towards them anew.

Shen Luo’s expression darkened slightly as he swept his sleeve with a flick.

Eight Chun Yang swords materialized and slashed outwards in all directions, each trembling before vanishing.

The next moment, countless red Sword Qi appeared out of thin air, shooting out like a tide all around them, blocking the incoming dark beasts from reaching the outside.

“Take these three golden arrows. Although the Golden Crow Souls inside them have been extracted, they still contain considerable power. Combined with your Hou Yi’s Power, they should be able to display tremendous might,” Shen Luo took out the three golden arrows and handed them to Nie Caizhu.

Earlier, the Fire Spirit Child had used a new method to extract the Golden Crow Souls while consecrating the sword spirits, preserving the three golden arrows.

Nie Caizhu’s indifferent face showed a hint of joy as she took the golden arrows.

With another flick of his sleeve, Shen Luo enveloped the remains of the pitch-black flood dragon in True Solar Fire. In the blink of an eye, it was turned entirely into ashes, leaving only a huge black dragon claw behind where Witchcraft Power surged, its might felt even from a great distance.

This pitch-black flood dragon was the most powerful dark beast they had encountered so far, its strength undoubtedly reaching the True Immortal Level. The Witchcraft Power within its claw was also extremely potent, enough to refine a high-grade Magical Treasure if judged by the standards of equivalent Spiritual Materials.

Shen Luo activated the Free and Easy Mirror, storing the dragon claw inside, as dazzling green light again radiated from his body.

The dark beasts around them roared angrily, doubling their fierce attacks. The surrounding red Sword Qi was struggling to hold them back.

Nie Caizhu let out a shout, the Golden Great Bow in her hands bursting with eye-blinding Golden Light. Numerous Golden Light Arrows whistled out, combining with the red Sword Qi to fend off the fierce onslaught of the dark beasts.

“Swift!”

Shen Luo quickly chanted Spells and performed hand seals, as flashes of green light began to flicker on his body, followed by the loud whooshing of nearly a hundred beams of green light shooting out in all directions, scattering across the dense cluster of buildings.

Within the depths of the buildings was a vast Square, completely submerged in dense dark clouds from which waves of Witch Clan’s Power surged. Many dark beasts crouched there, greedily sucking in the black mist of the land.

These dark beasts were numerous, totaling over a hundred, each with considerable strength, their emanations of dark power not inferior to those at the Great Mahayana Stage.

Out of them, three dark beasts were significantly larger than the others. One was a Two-Headed Dark Tiger, another a Dark Giant Lizard, and the last and most massive one, a Black Giant Spider sprawled on the ground.

The dark aura on these three beasts was exceptionally strong, reaching the True Immortal Level, not at all weaker than the pitch-black flood dragon.

In the Central Region of the square, a giant tomb-like dark building stood faintly visible, the dense dark mist gushing from within it.

Engulfed in a thick darkness, the building slowly rotated, as though possessing a life of its own.

Just at that moment, three balls of green light descended from the sky, landing on the square. Two were close to the Central Region, and another at the edge of the square.

“Roar…” From within the darkness of the tomb building came a low growl, suddenly glowing with two red light groups that appeared to be two enormous eyes filled with rage.

“Swoosh” “Swoosh” “Swoosh” Three sharp whistles!

Three streams of dark Tentacles shot out rapidly from inside the tomb building, coiling towards those three balls of green light.

The two balls of green light closer to the tomb were immediately wrapped by the tentacles and quickly dimmed into nothingness. The third ball of green light, being farther away, was caught by the fast-moving dark tentacles just an Instant too late, and as they were about to crush it too,

At that moment, the green light ball suddenly intensified and swiftly expanded, with two figures emerging from within the green light — it was Shen Luo and Nie Caizhu.
