Martial Cultivator

Chapter 188: Bitter Fight

Between heaven and earth, there were not only black and white, two colors, but the day would still be divided into night and day. Chen Chao had experienced many battles in the darkness of the night and he naturally knew just how dangerous it was.

Choosing to drag this unknown demon into the boundless dark night was actually rather reckless. But since he had already done it, how could he stop?

That body that was incomparably tough in the Divine Trove Realm collided into the darkness of the night, also colliding with another incomparably tough body. The demon hiding in the darkness had an incredibly tough body. Even if it was knocked into the dense forest by Chen Chao earlier due to a moment of inattentiveness, when it returned to its senses at this moment, it would stop being scared.

Following a furious roar, a furry arm reached out from the night. That fist covered in dense fur was tyrannical to the extreme, completely voiding the air in front of it.

The sound of thunder resonated in the night sky in rapid succession.

That was the sound of space being torn apart.

Chen Chao did not hesitate, the broken saber in his hand swung out at this moment. A bright saber light appeared in the dark night, tearing through the darkness.

The saber headed straight for the demon's chest. The fleeting burst of light in the darkness allowed Chen Chao to catch a glimpse of the demon's true appearance.

It had a head resembling a bull, with a pair of crimson eyes that, apart from bloodthirst, also held a hint of cunning. Deep within those crimson eyes, there was a hint of pain. The furry head was topped with two extremely sharp horns, gleaming with a chilling cold light.

Chen Chao had slain many demons, but he did not recognize every kind of demon. After all, the demon races that came from the North, after staying in Great Liang Dynasty for so many years and experiencing so many years of propagation, had already evolved into many different variants. It was difficult for anyone to recognize all the demons.

Even for a martial artist like Chen Chao, who had killed many demons, it was the same too.

He slashed with his saber, swiping across the demon's chest. The broken saber was now sharper than before, it just lightly touched the fur and already cut it. The fur was cut off and fell to the ground.

The demon threw a punch out and the terrifying aura forced Chen Chao's saber to veer off course.

Chen Chao's arm bulged with veins, but he could not make the broken saber in his hand follow the intended trajectory. Instead, it veered off rapidly to the side, deviating significantly.

The broken saber missed.

That demon leaped into the air and soon arrived in midair.

That figure akin to a small hill shot up, instantly snapping several large trees. With a few rumbling sounds, those large trees fell with a loud crash. That demon also changed direction, descending from the sky while simultaneously throwing out a punch!

A vast, scorching aura fell from the sky.

An immensely huge fist image appeared in the night sky. The night sky, which was originally pitch-black, now seemed to be obscured by something once again.

As the fist image fell, ripples of energy spread in all directions. Those were endless ripples, as if the world was originally an incomparably tranquil pond. The surface of the water was originally calm, but at this moment, for some unknown reason, it had formed ripples, causing the entire world to become turbulent.

Those large trees began to shatter, their canopies swaying. Hence, countless leaves fell down. Looking from a distance, it seemed as if there was torrential rain between heaven and earth.

The falling leaves and broken trees rapidly plummeted towards the ground. It was very fast, arriving at the ground earlier than the fist.

These trees headed towards Chen Chao almost overbearingly, carrying an incredible weight.

Especially when there were so many trees, the scene was incredibly spectacular.

Clutching the broken saber, Chen Chao faced the onslaught of the tree rain. His black hair was blown by the wind and his black top hugged his body due to the strong wind, fluttering heavily.

The tremendous pressure made it extremely difficult for him to swing his saber. He even found it challenging to stand still at this moment. He felt that the powerful aura was currently pressuring him to kneel down towards the ground.

The demon's cultivation realm was too high, it was definitely not as simple as just Bitter Sea Realm. It should be an extremely powerful existence at the pinnacle of the Bitter Sea Realm; much stronger than Song Changxi back then.

Although Chen Chao had made significant progress before leaving the Divine Capital, he had not broken through that barrier to enter the Bitter Sea Realm and become one of the most outstanding geniuses among the young generation.

In the blink of an eye, countless leaves and trees had engulfed Chen Chao. It was chaos between heaven and earth, no one could see that black-robed youth in this maelstrom.

That demon's fist was also about to descend at this moment.

However, amidst the debris that filled the sky, Chen Chao burst out, his black top becoming a little more tattered. Clutching the broken saber, he cleaved apart heaven and earth.

The fierce winds swept through the sky, and the initially quiet night was no longer silent.

That proud and tenacious youth soared into the sky, and the broken saber in his hand began hacking apart heaven and earth continuously.

……

……

Han Hu finally arrived.

After a brief moment of bewilderment, this old martial artist chased in from outside and finally arrived at the scene. When he had just rushed here, he saw Chen Chao heading towards the sky. With help from the moonlight, he finally saw that gigantic demon. This old martial artist frowned slightly. Then, without any hesitation, he roared angrily, "Fire!"

The martial artists behind him saw this scene. Originally, they were still a little stunned. But after hearing Han Hu's roar, they immediately took out their powerful bows slung on their backs without any hesitation.

They were also veteran army soldiers in the first place. They had done such things countless times before, so there was naturally no unfamiliarity.

Han Hu also took out his old bow, notching the arrow and drawing the bowstring. In just an instant, his arm exerted force. The large bow that had not been drawn to full capacity in who knew how many years was now akin to the full moon.

After drawing it to its full capacity, the feathered arrow instantly shot out!

It whizzed through the air.

The martial artists behind him also released their arrows.

Countless arrows shot through the air, creating whistling sounds.

Han Hu did not hesitate, after shooting an arrow, he immediately notched another arrow and drew the bowstring again. The second arrow was notched on the bowstring and had no choice but to fire.

After that was the third arrow.

However, with each draw of the bowstring, the qi within Han Hu's body was also rapidly depleting. By the fourth arrow, he could no longer draw the bow to a full moon; only a half moon.

After releasing this arrow, the exhausted Han Hu took a deep breath. The qi within his body was depleted to begin with. At this moment, new qi was being produced.

Han Hu pulled out the saber he had stuck into the ground earlier. Looking at the flying feathered arrows, his eyes were full of worry.

……

……

Countless feathered arrows soared through the air, disappearing into the raging wind. Each arrow was aimed at the demon, but most of them shattered with a loud bang before they could arrive in front of that demon. Only those few arrows shot by Han Hu barely managed to make it past the storm and rush in.

However, the closer they got to that enormous demon, the slower they became.

Finally, the first arrow arrived.

The demon had no choice but to glance at the arrow at this moment.

It originally wanted to smash that young man with a punch. But at this moment, it had no choice but to reach out and grab Han Hu's arrow.

That furry hand crushed the feathered arrow.

Then, it casually tossed it away. The arrow snapped and fell, but it was soon swept up by the strong winds.

However, its hesitation gave Chen Chao an excellent opportunity. The broken saber in his hand changed trajectory and slashed toward the demon's head.

The demon shifted its body to avoid this incredibly dangerous strike.

But at the same time, blood dripped.

Chen Chao saw a shocking wound.

Right under the demon's armpit.

That was why it was injured and also why it chose to attack in the dark night.
