Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 145 - Light Element Merits

Chapter 145: Chapter 145 Light Element Merits

Shi Hao’s situation was extremely dangerous.

He absolutely couldn’t slow down, because if Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei caught up, with his current combat power he definitely wouldn’t stand a chance against the two of them.

Falling into their hands, he was certain he wouldn’t escape death.

With this realization, Shi Hao naturally ran for his life.

Under the Cloud Piercing Step, his speed was at least three times his usual, but his energy consumption was also ten times the normal rate!

After half an hour, Shi Hao was drenched in sweat, his clothes completely soaked, and his hair sticking to his skin, looking extremely disheveled.

...

Yet his eyes remained bright, devoid of any hint of despair.

This forced even Chu Xiaotian to admire him, acknowledging that if it were him, knowing escape was impossible, he might have already chosen to kill himself or to surrender humbly, begging for his life.

Yet, this young man was only sixteen years old, but his will was incredibly firm.

This only firmed Chu Xiaotian’s resolve to kill Shi Hao.

How much trouble would such a young man cause him in the future if he were not eliminated early?

“Shi Hao, why persist in struggling in vain?” he said placidly, trying to erode Shi Hao’s will. “You are destined to a dead end, why not seek a release?”

“Old dog, stick your head out, this young master won’t mind helping you chop it off.” Shi Hao replied, returning the slight rudely.

Chu Xiaotian snorted, saying, “So, you insist on seeking death!”

He spoke no further, realizing that words could not shake the young man’s resolve.

However, as they continued the chase, he couldn’t help but show a look of surprise.

They had actually come to Nameless Mountain.

This place was the White Cloud Sect’s mining area.

What was this kid doing here?

With one thought, he inwardly cursed. Bad news.

—The kid was trying to sneak into the mine shafts, hoping to use the complex terrain of the tunnels to shake him and Shi Xingwei off.

“How ludicrous, even if you flee into the mineshafts, do you think you can shake me off? Naive!” he coldly said.

Shi Hao had already reached the entrance where Chu Lingkong and his companions had been poaching; Chu Lingkong’s body was still lying there, and the large stone that covered the entrance was not in place.

With one quick leap, Shi Hao kicked, sending Chu Lingkong’s body flying towards Chu Xiaotian.

Thud!

Chu Xiaotian struck with his palm, and Chu Lingkong’s body was immediately flung against the nearby mountain wall.

Being at the Other Shore Realm, how terrifying was his power?

The collision instantly tore Chu Lingkong’s body apart, yet no blood spilled.

—It had long evaporated.

“Lingkong!” Chu Xiaotian then realized, the person he had dismembered was his own grandson.

He was both angry and heartbroken.

Knowing that spirit root bearers are scarce, even though those who possessed spirit roots like them had a slightly higher chance to produce offspring with spirit roots, it was still rare, one in ten at most.

Thus, descendants like Chu Lingkong, who advanced six steps in Soul Nurturing, were his great hope.

Otherwise, he would not have assigned him to guard such an important secret.

Now, Chu Lingkong was dead, undoubtedly at Shi Hao’s hands.

“You little beast, I will tear you to pieces and grind your bones to dust!” Chu Xiaotian said hatefully, filled with fury.

“Catch up to me first,” said Shi Hao as he rushed into the cave.

Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei both charged in without hesitation.

By this time, even if Shi Hao had rushed into a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, they had to follow to ensure that Shi Hao was certainly dead.

One fled, two pursued, still biting closely at his heels.

However, as they delved deeper, the cave became darker and darker, to the extent that they couldn’t see their own hands.

This was a thief’s cave, of course, it wasn’t meant to be bright but as hidden as possible.

Huh?

An idea struck Shi Hao, and he drew on the Light Element, then—

The back of his head suddenly became like a small Sun, casting a blazingly bright beam of light behind him.

Although this was a dark space, it didn’t mean the Light Element didn’t exist, just that it was less prevalent than usual.

“Ah!”

Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei screamed simultaneously, their footing became chaotic, almost colliding with the cave walls.

But they didn’t dare move further, instead, they stopped and covered their eyes with their hands.

Damn, it’s too bright, almost blinding them.

Now, although their eyes were open, all they could see was a vast white expanse.

You should know, it was too dark here, and suddenly a ray of sunlight was enough to make one’s eyes ache, let alone Shi Hao’s concentration of the Light Element, which was a hundred times brighter than normal sunlight.

Could it not be dazzling?

Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei both teared up but still had to prepare to defend, as they had to be wary of Shi Hao suddenly launching a counterattack.

“Fun, isn’t it?” Shi Hao’s voice came from ahead.

“You damned evil child!” Chu Xiaotian roared, but his tears flowed uncontrollably, ruining his image completely.

Shi Hao had no intention of charging over to strike, as an Other Shore expert, he was extremely sensitive to power, and if he got too close, he would certainly be blown to bits.

“Keep chasing me!” Shi Hao laughed out loud and strode away.

Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei did not pursue, they needed to let their eyes recover first.

Fortunately, it was just intense light exposure, and though it really did damage their eyes, as Other Shore experts, they recovered quickly.

“Chase!” both of them said simultaneously, with faces full of anger.

Four Other Shore experts had taken action, and two had been killed by Shi Hao; they too were made extremely embarrassed. If they let Shi Hao escape, how could they face anyone in the future?

They, while Shi Hao ran, the thief’s cave soon showed a fork in the path, and after turning a few more times, Shi Hao completely lost Chu Xiaotian and his companion.

He stopped to rest, and upon sitting, he collapsed as if he were paralyzed.

Being hunted by Other Shore experts was no joking matter.

In just a short hour, Shi Hao had exhausted all his physical strength, and his Soul Power was also greatly consumed, as running the Cloud Piercing Step required using Elemental Energy, draining him in every aspect.

However, it wasn’t long before Chu Xiaotian and his companion caught up again.

Shi Hao continued to run, buzzing, another column of light burst forth, which Chu Xiaotian and his companion could not defend against even if they were prepared.

There was no way, the light came almost instantly, how could they dodge?

Therefore, Chu Xiaotian and Shi Xingwei could be described as utterly embarrassed, though they immediately closed their eyes when the light came, they still got scorched, and being hit by such an intense beam of light inevitably caused them to tear up.

If there were outsiders present, seeing this scene would certainly be both shocking and amusing.

—Two Other Shore Realm experts, tears streaming down their faces as they chased after Shi Hao, what on earth was this?

Shi Hao quickly shook off the two experts again, he walked and walked, only to find himself in a dead end. He was about to turn back, but then he sensed a faint elemental fluctuation behind the rock wall.

Huh?
