I Can Merge Techniques-Chapter 118 - 101: All Bottom Cards Revealed

They didn’t fly straight at Tang Xiao. Instead, they traced three bizarre and unpredictable arcs in the air—one to the left, one to the right, and one curving slightly upward...

Like three deadly crescent moons suddenly appearing in the night sky, they intertwined, closing in on him from different angles!

It was as if three archers were shooting from three different directions at once, making it impossible to judge the true angle of attack!

The specially-made metal arrow shafts tore through the air, letting out a grating shriek that echoed through the valley. The arrows moved so fast they were nothing but blurry black lines, reaching Tang Xiao in an instant!

The moment after he fired his three arrows, the three Black Kite Arrows on Chu Fan’s Meteor Bow were loosed as well!

Like three black shooting stars, they aimed straight for Tang Xiao’s vitals!

Tang Xiao, who was rushing upward with his masterful Qinggong, felt his pupils suddenly contract, his eyes filled with astonishment!

He had never expected another person to be lying in ambush at the top of the cliff!

And that both of their archery skills were so fierce and bizarre!

In a flash, with no time to think, he violently grabbed a thick old vine with his left hand. His Qi Blood Power erupted, forcibly halting his upward momentum. At the same time, he swung his body sharply to the right, trying to dodge the arrows coming from both front and back!

SHH SHH SHH!

The three arrows Zhao Tianxing shot grazed the corner of his clothes, the wind from them stinging his skin.

One of the arrows struck the rock he had just used for leverage. With a BANG, the rock shattered, sending fragments flying. A few pieces even scraped his arm, leaving shallow cuts.

Another arrow severed several vines beside him. The snap of the breaking vines was crisp as the severed lengths fell downward like snakes.

The last arrow flew right past his face, the force of its fletching stinging his cheek and even rustling the hair on his forehead...

An incredibly close call!

However, just as his old momentum was spent and before he could generate new force, Chu Fan’s three faster, fiercer, and more cunning Black Kite Arrows had arrived!

The three arrows let out a faint hum in the air. Their arrowheads, as if alive, minutely adjusted their course, as if they had eyes, locking onto Tang Xiao’s slightly off-balance form as he dodged— 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

This was precisely the "Pursuit" Trait that Chu Fan had obtained after Breaking his Limit in the "Hundred-step Piercing Willow Arrow Skill" he had painstakingly cultivated!

After being fired, the arrows could minutely adjust their trajectory based on the target’s movements, making them even harder for an opponent to evade!

Suspended in mid-air with nothing to push off of, alarm bells screamed in Tang Xiao’s mind. A deathly chill shot up from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head!

He let out a furious roar as the Blood Saber at his waist was suddenly unsheathed. The blade glowed with an eerie red light. With a CLANG, he precisely struck the foremost arrow!

The Black Kite Arrow’s shaft snapped on impact, the arrowhead flying off and embedding itself in the cliff face.

At the same time, he forcefully twisted his waist. Relying on his superhuman body control, he tilted his body to the left, once again dodging the second arrow by a hair’s breadth!

The arrow flew past his side, tearing a long gash in his fitted clothes and revealing the solid muscle beneath.

But the third arrow—the Black Kite Arrow imbued with all of Chu Fan’s mental and physical energy, enhanced by the "Pursuit" Trait—had silently circled into his blind spot. Like a venomous snake that had lain in wait for a long time, it delivered the fatal blow!

PFFT!

Blood sprayed forth!

The heavy metal arrow instantly pierced through Tang Xiao’s left thigh. The arrowhead entered from the front and exited from the back, carrying with it a spray of warm, bloody mist that splattered against the cliff, staining a patch of moss red!

The terrifying force of the impact nearly fractured his femur!

"Argh—!"

Tang Xiao let out a suppressed roar of pain. Agony washed over him like a tide, his grip failed, and he began to fall.

But the tenacity and ferocity of an expert at the Entering the Realm of Strength were on full display in that moment!

After falling only a few feet, he shot out his left hand, his five fingers like hooks, and dug them deep into a narrow crevice in the rock face, arresting his fall!

Veins bulged on his forehead, and his face had gone deathly pale from the excruciating pain, but the savage light in his eyes only intensified.

"I’m going to slaughter you bastards!"

Tang Xiao roared. His right hand swung his curved saber in two quick slashes, severing both ends of the arrow piercing his left thigh—

The shaft was too long and would hinder his movement if left in his leg. Enduring the excruciating pain, he had actually snapped the shaft, leaving only a small section still embedded in his thigh!

Blood continuously poured from the severed ends of the broken arrow, soaking his pant leg before dripping onto the cliff face with a "drip... drop..." sound.

But Tang Xiao paid it no mind...

While dodging the arrows that Chu Fan and Zhao Tianxing continued to fire, he used the strength of his one arm and his right leg, supplemented by his surging Qi Blood Power, to frantically scramble up the vines with even more ferocity than before!

With every exertion, more blood would spurt from the wound in his left leg, splattering across the cliff face in a shocking display!

Yet his speed didn’t decrease in the slightest. Fueled by rage, he actually moved even faster, like a wounded beast filled with monstrous hatred. In the blink of an eye, he had climbed more than halfway and was less than sixty feet from the top!

Seeing this, Chu Fan gave a quick wave of his hand.

Zhao Tianxing received the signal and immediately began to retreat, ready to flee at a moment’s notice!

Chu Fan’s expression was grim as he watched the blood-soaked figure climbing from below, a chill in his heart.

’Our all-out combined Killing Move only managed to severely injure him, not kill him.’

’If we were on flat ground, without the advantage of the terrain, that brilliant "Eclipse: Crescent Arc Light" from just now probably wouldn’t have even grazed his clothes!’

’The Qi Blood Power of the Bone Marrow Forging realm is nowhere near a match for the Entering the Realm of Strength. And there’s the entire Bone Tempering Realm between them...’

’Just managing to injure his thigh was a stroke of incredible luck!’
