บท 100: The Sneak Attack of a Sovereign Realm Expert
Jiang Heng pondered for a moment.
After more than twenty days of hunting, the number of his talismans had reached 283, and in addition to protecting four fellow disciples, it was equivalent to securing dozens of points for the sect.
He had indeed made sufficient contributions to the sect.
"Since that's the case, let's take a few days to rest first! I need to go into seclusion, and as for the rest of you..."
Jiang Heng was smiling as he spoke to the others.
Suddenly, a mysterious and cryptic warning echoed in his mind, as if some kind of crisis was rapidly approaching.
With his keen dynamic vision, he noticed that the expressions of the people standing in front of him were gradually filled with fear.
"Be... careful!"
Tu Hao, who was closest to him, reached out and tried to push him away.
However, Jiang Heng's strength was simply too great. Even without any defense, he didn't budge when Tu Hao pushed him suddenly.
"Boom!"
A sharp pain radiated from the back of his head, as if some kind of weapon with tremendous explosive force had struck his occiput at lightning speed.
Jiang Heng staggered two steps forward involuntarily.
Caught off guard, this blow caused severe tremors in Jiang Heng's brain, leaving his consciousness dazed for a moment.
However, the mysterious object that had struck him didn't pause in the slightest.
It was an ancient-looking green longsword, enveloped in solid yellow true qi, flying through the air without anyone holding it.
It was agile and swift as lightning.
In the blink of an eye, the longsword struck Jiang Heng's body repeatedly, either slashing or stabbing.
Throat, eyes, temples, heart, dantian, and other potentially vulnerable spots were all subjected to multiple attacks.
"Boom!" "Boom!"...
The sound of relentless strikes filled the air.
This sudden turn of events left the four people beside him in shock.
"A Sovereign Realm!"
"A Sovereign Realm expert is attacking Jiang Heng?"
They were momentarily taken aback and didn't know what to do. Not to mention that they couldn't contend with a Sovereign Realm expert, they had no idea how to intervene in the opponent's attack.
The yellow sword radiance had completely enveloped Jiang Heng, making it easy for them to harm him when they attempted to act.
But in that moment of hesitation, Jiang Heng had fully regained his senses.
The instant he opened his eyes again, he felt the dull pain spreading all over his body, like the slight ache of stepping on a pebble underfoot, yet there were no signs of injury.
Even his eyes, which should have been vulnerable, instinctively closed when attacked during his moment of confusion, but he had suffered no harm.
This was the terrifying defense of the "Indestructible Heaven Technique" combined with the "Indestructible Golden Body."
Faced with a series of sneak attacks from a Sovereign Realm expert, he emerged unscathed.
In a nearby thicket, a mysterious figure hidden away had their pupils constricting dramatically and was engulfed in endless shock.
Even though they knew in advance that Jiang Heng's most fearsome aspect was his defense, they had never considered that the other party could directly ignore attacks from the Sovereign Realm.
This was completely beyond their comprehension.
"Dodge!"
Jiang Heng angrily shouted and, in an instant, his figure trembled as he reached out to grab the yellow light, which was as swift as lightning.
The four people on the side naturally understood that Jiang Heng's words were meant for them. Without hesitation, they quickly moved aside to avoid interfering with Jiang Heng's battle.
They also noticed that the mysterious assailant in the Sovereign Realm had launched a series of attacks that had caused no harm to Jiang Heng. Amid their shock, they breathed a sigh of relief.
While retreating, Tu Hao shouted, "Attack the bushes!"
The other three immediately grasped the situation.
Although they were far from reaching the Sovereign Realm themselves, they were top disciples of a prestigious sect and had access to numerous records about the Sovereign Realm. They knew that while a Sovereign Realm expert could attack from a distance using a sword, their control was typically limited to a few hundred meters due to their strength. To maintain flexibility and effectiveness, the attack range was usually around a hundred meters.
In other words, the assailant in the Sovereign Realm couldn't be hiding too far away and was likely concealed in the nearby bushes.
The four of them had no chance against a Sovereign Realm expert, but if they could force the opponent out of the bushes and find their location, it would be a contribution to the battle.
"Swish! Swish!"
They wildly slashed with their swords, sending sharp sword rays several meters long flying into the surrounding bushes.
Not far away, Jiang Heng was struggling to contend with the flying sword. It was a flying sword that didn't require manual control, completely free from the limitations of joints in the human body. It could change direction at will with a single thought, swift as lightning and incredibly agile, while still possessing explosive power no less than when controlled by the body.
Even with Jiang Heng's extraordinary reaction speed, he was completely on the defensive, helplessly enduring one attack after another.
At this moment, perhaps due to the need to deal with the incoming sword energy, the mysterious Sovereign Realm assailant in the bushes had a moment of distraction. The flying sword they controlled also showed a momentary hesitation.
Jiang Heng's eyes lit up, seizing this rare opportunity. His movements accelerated instantly, and he managed to grab onto the sword hilt.
However, as he barely held onto it, the flying sword wriggled out of his palm and swiftly flew in a particular direction.
"Hehe!"
Jiang Heng grinned savagely and pursued without hesitation. Since he knew the opponent couldn't harm him, there was nothing to worry about. Confrontation was the way to go!
At the same time, the four fellow disciples continued their random attacks, slicing the surrounding bushes into disarray. The mysterious Sovereign Realm expert had no choice but to reveal themselves in front of everyone.
It was a burly man dressed in dark clothing, with a veil covering his face. He casually swatted away the incoming sword energy with a single palm.
Perhaps realizing that their flying sword couldn't harm Jiang Heng, the assailant chose to give up and, in mid-air, landed directly on the returning longsword. Without delay, they flew away close to the ground.
"Wait for me around here!"
Jiang Heng left a message and turned into a streak of light, following closely.
"Don't run!"
As he chased, Jiang Heng roared. At the same time, he swung his right hand, unleashing enormous scarlet sword energy.
However, the opponent's speed was simply too fast and agile, and even with Jiang Heng's agility, they gradually distanced themselves.
The relentless pursuit, deafening roars, and broken trees created an astonishing spectacle, drawing the attention of one participant after another.
But when they saw Jiang Heng's figure from a distance, they quickly steered clear.
By now, the mysterious Sovereign Realm assailant had completely disappeared from view.
Jiang Heng had no choice but to stop and return with a serious expression.
"Why would a Sovereign Realm expert come to the trial grounds to attack me?"
"Is it from the Heaven Sword Sect? The Sacred Land? Or Elder Sun?"
"Or could it be the Sect Master? Elder Wen?"
Jiang Heng's thoughts raced, and names swirled through his mind one after another.
