Chapter 555 -518: The Butcher of Jinyun Valley

In an instant.

Chen Che was trapped between two Grand Arrays. Every possible escape route was immediately sealed by wind and lightning.

“Bring it on!”

However, Chen Che, inside the Array, made a move that sent the blood of the Jinyun Valley Cultivators boiling: instead of retreating, he advanced. Taking a single step forward, he bent his fingers, grasped a Flying Sword, and met the sky full of wind and lightning head-on!

No dodging, no maneuvering, not a single step back!

BOOM—

A series of tremendous roars erupted at once.

The sword in Chen Che’s hand slashed, hacked, parried, and sliced, creating a dazzling, intersecting web of light and shadow. Even the Golden Core Cultivators present could barely keep up with his movements!

It was like a handful of copper peas being scattered into an iron basin. Hundreds of continuous collisions rang out and ended in half a flick of a finger. The ground within the Grand Array now resembled a plateau weathered by a thousand years of wind, covered in deep ravines.

The Cultivators on the scene were all stunned. If it had been them, they would have been pulverized long ago.

But the two Grand Arrays had failed to break through Chen Che’s defense.

‘This kid…’

Even Jiang Shaotian’s expression couldn’t help but turn grim. He had thought that with the advantage of the Grand Arrays, he could easily crush his opponent.

An ordinary Golden Core Cultivator would have been reduced to dust in the first Array alone. Now, with two Arrays active, he was confident that even the three Chiefs of the Primordial Sect would be thrown into a panicked frenzy.

But in the end, he couldn’t take down Chen Che!

“Don’t you have a third Array for me to appreciate?”

The taunt from within the Grand Array nearly made Jiang Shaotian grit his teeth to dust…

Controlling a Grand Array was extremely draining on one’s mind and spirit.

His Divine Sense wasn’t strong enough to control a third Array of the same level. Without thirty years of meditation and cultivation to accumulate more Divine Sense, he couldn’t possibly set up another one.

But how could he willingly accept such mockery?

These two Arrays hadn’t been pushed to their limits yet, nor had they revealed their full power. He stretched out his hands and suddenly clapped them together.

“Two Arrays are more than enough to kill you!”

“Wind and Lightning, converge!”

BOOM!—

The sky-filling lightning and hurricanes instantly converged on Chen Che from all directions. Like a thousand rivers flowing into one, they merged in the blink of an eye, forming a colossal tornado composed entirely of thunderstorms.

And at the center of that tornado was none other than Chen Che!

At this moment, even the spectating Golden Core Cultivators’ expressions changed drastically. They subconsciously shot back several steps, terrified of being caught in the maelstrom of wind and lightning.

“Absorb!”

But just then, an even more unexpected scene unfolded.

To everyone’s disbelief, Chen Che flipped his hand, and a Gourd shot into the air. As he formed a Seal Technique, the Gourd began to glow. Like a ravenous taotie, it swallowed the wind and lightning in a single gulp.

Immediately after, with a series of BANGS, the nine Battle Spears and the Boundless Wind Travel Array Disc hanging in midair shattered in an instant.

STOMP! STOMP! STOMP!

Jiang Shaotian let out a muffled grunt, a trickle of blood escaping the corner of his mouth as he staggered back several steps.

Before he could regain his footing, Chen Che had already waved his hand.

WHOOSH!

A hurricane erupted. Countless Flying Swords, previously blasted away by the Grand Array, all levitated at once. After a brief pause in midair, they transformed into a hail of blades, storming forward with overwhelming force.

Then, with a flick of Chen Che’s wrist, the Flying Swords spun into a massive vortex that shot toward Jiang Shaotian.

“This is bad!”

The members of the Star-Picking Sect looked on in horror, but it all happened so suddenly they had no time to provide aid!

“Haste!”

Just then, a Water Sleeve seemed to traverse the void, shimmering with light as it rapidly materialized in front of Jiang Shaotian. Chen Che’s countless Flying Swords crashed against it, erupting in a shower of sparks.

At the same time, a second Water Sleeve flew out like a bolt of white silk.

If the first Water Sleeve was tempered steel, then this one was as supple as silk wrapped around a finger.

Chen Che immediately flicked a finger, and his Flying Swords formed a Sword Shield in front of him. But the Water Sleeve, which had approached with thunderous momentum, silently coiled around it. As nimble as a Flood Dragon Snake, it slipped behind him in the blink of an eye.

Then, to the astonishment of the onlookers, it suddenly constricted, forming a cyan sphere on the spot and trapping Chen Che inside.

“Break!”

But in just half a finger-flick, Chen Che forcibly shattered the Water Sleeve with his Flying Swords. The shattered sleeve immediately transformed into countless motes of cyan light, which regrouped in midair and shot back to its owner.

“The Second Master’s ‘Ten Thousand Laws Water Light Sleeve’ can be both hard and soft. Its reputation is well-deserved.”

Chen Che’s gaze shifted, landing on Zhang Miaqing.

Just now, it was she who had intervened to stop him from killing Jiang Shaotian.

“I heard that back when the Zhang Family ancestor was Forging this Magical Artifact, if it weren’t for a small mistake that caused it to split in two, it might have been promoted to Tier Four. A Water Sleeve like that would have been on a whole other level of power.”

“Valley Master Chen certainly knows a lot…”

Zhang Miaqing’s expression was cold.

Chen Che was right. These two ‘Ten Thousand Laws Water Light Sleeves,’ while her ultimate treasures, were also the greatest source of pain for her clan.

Two hundred years ago, in order to contend with the Ping Race for control over Mist Rain Tower, they had gathered all their clan’s resources to forge a Tier Four Magical Artifact.

Who would have expected that an accident would occur at the final moment of completion? Not only was the ‘Ten Thousand Laws Water Light Sleeve’ torn in two during the Celestial Tribulation, but their clan also lost its four strongest Golden Core Cultivators. From then on, power fell into the hands of the Ping Race.

“Then why don’t you take a look at my Magical Artifact.”
