286: Chapter 286 Su Liuli's Surprise and Doubt!

The Spear Light condensed as if it were solid, carrying a sharp whistle that tore through the air as it swept fiercely toward the first few Elf Prodigies who had lunged before him!

"Bang bang bang! Puchi—!"

The weapons of the three Elven Warriors charging at the front made slight contact with the golden Spear Light, and they immediately felt an irresistible surge of immense force; their palms split open, and their weapons flew from their hands!

Immediately following that, the Spear Light reached their bodies.

Shock and disbelief still lingered in the eyes of two of the elves.

Their bodies had already been sliced in half at the waist by that incomparably sharp Spear Light; blood and fragments of internal organs sprayed out together, killing them instantly!

Another elf, slightly further back, was struck in the chest by the residual force of the Spear Light, and his thick armor caved in and shattered.

Spitting blood mixed with organ fragments, he flew backward several yards.

He slammed into a broken stone pillar and slumped down, his life or death unknown, though he clearly appeared to be on the verge of death from his heavy injuries.

Almost at the same time, the arrows fired by several elven archers in the distance arrived.

These arrows were entwined with natural energy, swift and cunning, accurately aimed at Qin Yan's vital points such as the back of his heart and his throat.

"Ding! Ding! Dang! Dang!"

The arrows, which were powerful enough to pierce refined steel, landed on Qin Yan's body but produced a series of crisp sounds like metal clashing against iron!

The arrowheads touched his skin, causing sparks to fly.

Aside from leaving a few imperceptible white dots on that incredibly tough skin, they couldn't even scratch the surface before bouncing off weakly and falling.

Seeing this scene, Su Liuli, who had been dealing with sporadic attacks nearby with a relaxed posture, instantly had a flash of undisguised gravity and even a hint of shock pass through her eyes.

"This guy Qin Yan... His physical strength has actually reached this level?"

"Could it be that he has already begun true 'Body Tempering'?!"

She knew well the hardships of cultivation.

The path of Body Tempering was extremely difficult to enter.

It required not only a cultivation technique to lead the way but also a powerful physical talent and the consumption of even more resources.

With her self-conceited natural talent, her comprehension of the top Body Tempering techniques in her clan was still lingering outside the threshold.

But the physical defense Qin Yan displayed was clearly a sign of successful Body Tempering and significant mastery!

"Bitch! Die!"

Several angry shouts interrupted Su Liuli's thoughts.

Seeing that Qin Yan's side was troublesome, several Elf Prodigies turned around, wanting to first deal with this woman who looked like a "soft persimmon."

One by one, they lunged from the flanks brandishing sabers and swords, attempting to take her down.

"Hmph, you don't even pick a good time to seek death!"

Su Liuli's pretty face turned cold as her thoughts were interrupted.

She raised her delicate hand, and a blood-red long whip darted out from her sleeve like a venomous snake.

"Blood Shadow Raging Waves!"

The whip shadows instantly transformed into countless blood-colored afterimages, like blooming flowers of death, completely enveloping the area several yards around her!

Wherever the tip of the whip passed, the air emitted a ghostly shriek, and the sharp blood-colored energy carried a terrifying tearing force!

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

With a few short, muffled sounds, mists of blood exploded!

This scene caused the other Elf Prodigies who were about to rush up around her to freeze in their tracks, deep fear emerging in their eyes.

What kind of method was this?!

This woman was even more eerie and terrifying than the man with the spear!

Su Liuli's bloody methods, combined with Qin Yan's absolute defense and violent sweeping, formed a dual layer of terrifying pressure!

In just a short moment of combat, more than half of the dozens of originally aggressive Elf Prodigies had already been killed or injured!

The square was littered with corpses and the heavily injured who were on the verge of death; blood had almost dyed the blue-gray stone bricks red, and the thick smell of blood was nauseating.

The fanaticism and greed on the faces of the surviving elves had long been replaced by boundless fear and despair.

The hands they used to hold their weapons were trembling, and their feet involuntarily retreated; they could no longer muster even a bit of courage to attack.

Morning Star's face was also pale at this moment, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead.

The bit of luck and confidence he had felt from "relying on superior numbers" had long been shattered by the one-sided massacre before his eyes!

"This... what level of monsters are these?! And... there are two of them!"

He finally realized what a terrifying steel plate he had kicked.

Could someone who could obtain the holy grail of life be an easy person to deal with?

He had actually let greed blind his reason!

Escape! He had to escape immediately!

Even though the holy grail was good, one had to be alive to enjoy it!

As soon as the thought arose, Morning Star no longer had the slightest will to fight, not even bothering to command his remaining companions.

Taking advantage of the moment Qin Yan was slightly restrained by two elves, he exerted sudden force with his feet and sprinted toward the outside of the square!

His speed exploded to the limit, seeking only to get away from these two fiends.

"Trying to leave?"

With one thrust of his spear, Qin Yan forced back the two blocking elves, and his cold gaze instantly locked onto that fleeing figure.

You want to besiege when you want to besiege, and escape when you want to escape? How could there be such a cheap deal in this world!

Moreover, this person was the leader and a famous figure on the heavenly pride ranking; if he were allowed to escape, the future trouble would be endless.

Qin Yan's foundational Qi and blood were extremely thick, far beyond what an ordinary third-grade cultivator could compare to, which gave him amazing explosive power and endurance.

He exerted force with his feet, and the bluestone slabs shattered with a bang.

His whole body was like a cannonball fired from its barrel, chasing after Morning Star with a speed that was even superior.

The distance between the two was shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In just a few breaths, Qin Yan had already chased to within five meters of Morning Star's back!

The cold Spear Light, containing an aura of destruction, was like a snake's tongue, firmly locked onto the back of his heart!

Morning Star sensed that sharp killing intent behind him getting closer and closer, almost piercing his skin, and his soul was frightened out of his wits.

He knew that simply running away was a dead end!

At the moment of life and death, he gritted his teeth, and a ferocious, ruthless look like that of a cornered beast exploded in his eyes!

If he couldn't escape, then he would fight to the death!

"Die for me! Moonfall Slash!"

Morning Star roared, and the elven longsword in his hand erupted with brilliant silver light!

He held the sword with both hands, raised it high above his head, and his entire body's Qi and blood poured frantically into the blade.

The silver light on the longsword became brighter and brighter, finally condensing into a five-foot-long silver sword light!

Within the sword light, a phantom of a crescent moon could be vaguely seen floating, emitting an incomparably sharp, bright, and cold aura.

This was the killing move from the "Silver Moon Manual"!

Facing this all-out fatal sword strike, Qin Yan's expression remained unchanged.

He didn't even slow down, still rushing forward.

Only when the distance between the two closed to three yards did his wrist flick, and the Ink Trace Spear shot out like a poisonous dragon emerging from its cave!

But with this thrust, all eighty-one streaks of Spear Aura converged at a single point on the spear tip.

The five-foot Spear Light was compressed to the extreme, turning into a condensed golden line that seemed solid!

"Ding—!!"

The spear tip and the sword light collided with precision!

A stalemate? It didn't exist!

The five-foot sword light emitted a slight crisp sound, and then it shattered and dissipated inch by inch!

The momentum of the Spear Light did not decrease at all; in Morning Star's eyes, which were filled with shock and despair, it easily brushed aside his parrying longsword and then stabbed fiercely into his chest!
