Chapter 241: Chapter 157: The One Who Kills You Is Cao Wunian of the White Bone Sect

Cao Wunian could also attack from the side, creating an opening.

But to his surprise, Xiao Chen didn’t dodge or evade, nor did he make any move to defend himself.

Instead, he slapped his Storage Bag and took out three Flying Swords.

Cao Wunian was delighted at first. He didn’t know why his opponent dared to ignore his poisonous smoke.

But underestimating an enemy always came at a price.

’If the man thought this smoke was the same as the junk sold on the market, he was gravely mistaken.’

However, as Cao Wunian watched with anticipation, Xiao Chen remained completely unharmed. He then unleashed the three Flying Swords.

In an instant, wind, thunder, and ice intertwined, forming a Sword Array that completely trapped Cao Wunian.

"What’s going on?"

Stunned, Cao Wunian immediately tried to break out of the Sword Array.

But the next moment, the three top-grade Flying Swords simultaneously unleashed several streams of Sword Qi, converging to shred him.

Once its victim was trapped, a top-tier Small Three Talents Sword Formation was inescapable, even for a Great Perfection Foundation Establishment Cultivator, unless they also possessed three top-grade Magical Artifacts to mount a Defense.

Xiao Chen didn’t have to do a thing; he just had to watch from the sidelines.

"Three top-grade Magic Swords... Just who are you?"

"White Bone Devouring Technique, merge!"

"AAAH!"

A pained cry rang out. Unable to dodge in time, half of Cao Wunian’s left arm was sliced clean off, falling to the ground.

’This is strange,’ Xiao Chen thought. ’Judging by his performance, this guy isn’t even as strong as the Lv Brother and Sister.’

’Has the White Bone Sect gone mad, sending him here alone to die?’

He summoned his Muddy Water Round Shield and unfurled the Fringed Tassel Brocade Handkerchief, cautiously scanning his surroundings.

’Logically, his opponent must have another trick up his sleeve.’

"Death is not the end, but my rebirth!"

After the Sword Qi severed half of his left leg, Cao Wunian finally broke, pulling out the "Holy Medicine" and swallowing it whole.

From the stumps of his severed limbs, new white bones rapidly sprouted to replace what he had lost.

The surrounding Sword Qi continued to strike him, but its effect grew weaker and weaker.

The strikes could only leave shallow gashes on the white bone, which were quickly repaired as new bone grew over them. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Damn you! Damn you to hell!"

Cao Wunian’s eyes were bloodshot, his expression frenzied. "The Holy Medicine was supposed to be for those bastards from the Lingyuan Sect! It’s all your fault, you despicable worm!"

Immediately after, a phantom of the Yellow Springs True Monarch materialized in mid-air and fused directly into him.

He was already at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, yet his aura began to surge dramatically.

It surpassed the limits of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, even causing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to pour violently into his body.

Xiao Chen sucked in a sharp breath. ’What the hell did he just swallow?’

’Don’t tell me he’s about to break through to the Golden Core realm on the spot?’

This strange phenomenon lasted only for a few moments.

Infused with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, Cao Wunian, now standing over ten feet tall, let out a furious roar and charged directly at Xiao Chen like a mindless beast.

Stream after stream of Sword Qi slashed into him, but they only managed to shear away his flesh, leaving his bones completely unharmed.

"BAM!"

Cao Wunian slammed into the Muddy Water Round Shield. The immense force of the impact caused the shield’s Spiritual Light to flare wildly, leaving it on the verge of collapse.

Just three or four more attacks like that, and the Muddy Water Round Shield would either be sent flying or shatter on the spot.

"Is that all?"

Xiao Chen simply recalled his Magical Artifacts.

’And here I thought he had some incredible trick prepared,’ he mused. ’I didn’t expect this was all he had.’

Cao Wunian now possessed immense strength, and even top-grade Magic Swords could no longer harm him.

But it was also obvious he had lost his sanity and could only attack with brute force.

’But what good is all that strength if you can’t even land a hit?’

As Cao Wunian charged again, a golden light flashed around Xiao Chen, and in an instant, he reappeared a hundred and eighty yards away.

His Vertical Earth Golden Light had improved significantly since he had obtained the Purple Gold Spirit Sand.

While he hadn’t yet reached the Great Success stage with the technique, it was far beyond what an ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator could achieve, making it ridiculously easy to dodge.

And so, Xiao Chen began to play a game of cat and mouse with him, leading him around in circles.

This continued for a quarter of an hour.

Cao Wunian suddenly stopped in his tracks, the clarity returning to his eyes.

He stared at the unharmed Xiao Chen in the distance, frozen on the spot.

He couldn’t understand how he had used the Holy Medicine and still failed to kill his opponent.

But before he could voice his question, the bones throughout his body disintegrated into dust.
