Dashing Student-Chapter 1260: A Single Arrow Breaks the Enemy
Chen Nan’s battle was about to end. Fresh blood stained the blade of Sword Chenyuan. With a slight shake, the blood beads scattered, and shockingly, the bald head he had sliced in half was still not dead.
"No!"
The bald man let out a scream, and a Golden Core flew out from his body. Shang Ming, already covered in cracks, quickly fled into the distance, clearly intending to escape.
The Golden Core was the culmination of a Great Cultivator’s lifetime cultivation. In a moment of crisis, they could split off a strand of Divine Thought into the Golden Core, offering a chance for survival.
If one possessed a certain Secret Technique, it was even possible to be reborn through the Golden Core. However, the conditions for rebirth were extremely harsh, and success was nearly impossible; but there was still a shred of hope.
Upon reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, the Nascent Soul could separate from the body. Even if the body was destroyed, as long as the Nascent Soul was intact, one could seize a body for rebirth and start anew.
Of course, such a heaven-defying act naturally had many restrictions, and excessive body-seizing would ultimately lead the Nascent Soul to become completely lost and eventually dissipate.
Therefore, even in the face of life and death, many in the Nascent Soul Realm were reluctant to do so.
The bald man unleashed his Golden Core to flee, perhaps possessing some Golden Core Secret Technique capable of relying on the remnant soul to resurrect. But no matter what, Chen Nan could not allow him to succeed.
A piece of metal appeared in his hand, which quickly unfolded and stretched, ultimately forming a longbow with a majestic and domineering shape, emanating powerful mana fluctuations.
He drew the bow and notched an arrow. Mana condensed into a golden arrow on the longbow, surrounded by the Heaven-Burning Flame. Chen Nan released his fingers, and the arrow shot out suddenly.
Just as the bald man’s Golden Core was about to disappear from sight, the arrow, though fired later, struck the Golden Core precisely. A scream from the bald man was heard as the Golden Core shattered, leading to his complete demise.
After completing all this, Chen Nan let out a slight sigh. Using Fatian Xiangdi was extremely exhausting for him, leaving him feeling waves of weakness throughout his body.
"It seems that in the future, unless the ’Demon Ape Form’ is perfect, I shouldn’t casually use Fatian Xiangdi. I wonder how Shi Zhongsheng is doing now."
The little monkey was left with Zhong Ling since he was heading to battle, which was fraught with danger, and it was more convenient to be alone.
At this moment, regardless of whether it was the Righteous Alliance Envoy or Zheng Yunzhou and the others, their gazes towards Chen Nan had changed. However, after dealing with the bald man, Chen Nan did not assist others.
He returned to the flying boat to close his eyes and rest, appearing indifferent to the situation.
A few Demon Cultivators had already developed thoughts of retreat, but seeing that Chen Nan seemed uninterested in intervening in the battles of others, they gritted their teeth and continued fighting.
With the bald man dead, if they didn’t manage to kill a few Righteous Cultivators and retreated in disgrace, they would still face a dead end, so they began to fight desperately.
Zheng Yunzhou and Ning Yu were in a better position, either having a cultivation advantage or being evenly matched. However, Deng Yunhe and Daoist Cui were in a miserable state, being beaten to the point of scrambling for cover by the Demon Cultivators.
The gap in cultivation made their defeat only a matter of time.
"Jue Mingzi, save me! We’re on the same team; you can’t just watch me die!"
Deng Yunhe shouted as he flew towards Chen Nan, while a Demon Cultivator chased him with a blade, the demonic qi-covered blade having already sliced numerous wounds on his back, like a drawn map.
Daoist Cui had conjured the turtle shell he used for fortune-telling, with a phantom of the turtle shell enveloping him, barely blocking the Demon Cultivators’ attacks. He also glanced at Chen Nan with hopeful eyes.
After all, the only variable on the battlefield now was Chen Nan. If he helped, the Demon Cultivators would have no chance of winning.
The Righteous Alliance Envoy hid on the flying boat, trembling all over. He was arrogant in front of Chen Nan and the others, but only felt fear in front of the Demon Cultivators.
Because the Demon Cultivators would really kill him!
As Deng Yunhe led a Demon Cultivator over, a hint of displeasure appeared on Chen Nan’s face. But the Demon Cultivator wasn’t foolish either, stopping ten feet away from the flying boat.
He was testing whether Chen Nan would intervene.
Deng Yunhe gritted his teeth in pain, his previous gentlemanly demeanor gone, now grimacing in pain, and he turned to the Demon Cultivator cursing, "You’re truly an animal! Ow, it hurts so much!"
Seeing the Demon Cultivator hesitate to pursue further, his courage grew, and he beckoned with a finger, "Come here!"
The Demon Cultivator was enraged, veins bulging on his forehead, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. Seeing no reaction from Chen Nan, he suddenly lunged forward, with demonic qi spreading around him like a giant black bat.
"Oh my god, Jue Mingzi save me! From now on, you’ll be like my own big brother!"
Seeing this, Deng Yunhe quickly flew onto the flying boat, cowardly hiding behind Chen Nan, even peeking out to give the Demon Cultivator a provocative look, borrowing someone else’s might to show off.
With such an annoying expression, even Chen Nan felt the urge to punch him, let alone the Demon Cultivator.
However, the display of power when Chen Nan killed the bald head was still enough to make the Demon Cultivator wary. After casting a deep look at Chen Nan, he turned back to join in dealing with Daoist Cui.
Among these people, Daoist Cui was the weakest, making him easier to resolve quickly.
Seeing both Demon Cultivators rushing towards him, Daoist Cui panicked, "Deng Yunhe, are you going to abandon me? At worst, I’ll return your Spirit Stones!"
Boom!
Massive demonic qi slammed into the turtle shell phantom, with the combined power of two Demon Cultivators making it several times stronger, causing the turtle shell phantom to tremble violently, as if it might dissipate at any moment.
Daoist Cui’s face turned pale with fright, and he too wanted to approach the flying boat but was blocked by a Demon Cultivator, leaving him in despair.
Luckily, Chen Nan on the flying boat finally moved. Although he was indifferent to the life and death of others, he couldn’t just stand by and watch the Demon Cultivators commit murder.
So he once again summoned the Sun-shooting Bow and simultaneously summoned two Jiao Long Arrows. The Bone Arrows carried a chilling aura, directly targeting the two Demon Cultivators besieging Daoist Cui.
The Demon Cultivators sensed something and looked back to see Chen Nan releasing the bowstring. Two arrows shot out, covered in vast mana, forming two phantom Jiao Longs.
The Jiao Longs roared menacingly, directly swallowing the Demon Cultivators, and the arrows then pierced through their bodies, the immense power nearly tearing them apart!
"Not good, retreat quickly!"
With one arrow from Chen Nan, the Demon Cultivators lost their will to fight and turned to flee. Even the two with arrows piercing their bodies ignored everything else and ran for their lives.
Now it was Deng Yunhe and Daoist Cui’s turn to feel triumphant, pursuing relentlessly from behind.
"Come on, weren’t you arrogant? Try hacking a couple more times? Young master here will stand right here for you to hack! Don’t run!"
Deng Yunhe kept shouting, and due to the severe injuries of the two Demon Cultivators, he and Daoist Cui managed to corner them in mid-air.
