“Humph!” Tan Jin curled his lip in disdain and shook his head.
He was unimpressed by Chu Li’s petty little trick. Without an adequate cultivation level, such petty little tricks could only help him survive for a moment. Chu Li still would not be able to get away in the end.
Tan Jin suddenly hastened his body movement technique and reduced their distance until there were only ten meters between them.
Just as he was about to perform the White Tiger Killing Skill, he suddenly felt his skin crawl and hurriedly ducked.
“Tsh!” Some hair at the top of his head was shaved off which gave him a disheveled look.
This Light Blade was unbelievably fast. It would have been a matter of life or death to go up against it, so he kept his guard up and did not dare to get too close to his opponent to give himself enough time to dodge the attacks. Although he was wearing the treasured clothing, his head was unprotected and he could lose his life even if he was hit with just one blade.
However, the increased distance between them gave Zhao Dahe the chance to evade his White Tiger Killing Skill as well. Fortunately, the White Tiger Killing Skill could change its course to follow with its target.
They soon reached the top of the mountain as the pursuit went on. Chu Li’s body movement technique was extraordinarily fast. He appeared to have no sign of injury at all, as if the person who had spat out blood just now was not him. His Divine Light Body remained unusually tough.
Tan Jin scoffed. “Zhao Dahe, even if you run to the ends of the earth, you won’t be able to get away from me!”
Chu Li laughed coldly. “You can really talk big. I don’t have to run to the ends of the earth. I just need to escape to the Great Light Peak. Will you be able to come and kill me then? Even if I gave you more courage, you wouldn’t dare to come!”
He was swiftly gliding ahead as he spoke and his voice sounded steady and smooth with no trace of injury.
Tan Jin frowned as he stared at Chu Li’s back. Zhao Dahe’s cultivation level was greater than he had imagined. He did not seem like a young man but appeared to be more like a crafty old scoundrel. He had to kill him immediately.
Tan Jin asked, “If you wanted to escape to the Great Light Peak, wouldn’t you have done so already? Why would you wait until now?”
“You’re right. I won’t return to the Great Light Peak. I will never leave Gale City until I re-establish the Radiance Clan!” Chu Li huffed.
“You’re ambitious indeed. Well then, prepare to die!” Tan Jin laughed coldly.
He joined his hands together and was about to pull them apart to create two tiger silhouettes.
“Tsh!” A cold glint flashed right in front of him.
Tan Jin could not finish performing the White Tiger Killing Skill and had to duck first. Some of his hair was shaved off again.
He felt a sense of nausea and a painful discomfort rising in his chest. It was important to avoid getting caught off guard and interrupted halfway when performing the White Tiger Killing Skill.
The sense of discomfort increased his murderous desire and made him more impulsive. He drew in a deep breath and sped up all of a sudden which closed the distance between them until he was only five meters apart from Chu Li.
He put his hands together again.
“Tsh!” Another cold glint appeared before his throat.
The blade had pierced his throat before he had time to react.
Brutal inner energy immediately surged into his throat and rushed upward to his brain.
Tan Jin let out a furious roar. At once, a tiger silhouette resembling a real white tiger appeared in the sky and dove down on him like a savage tiger pouncing on its prey.
The wound on his throat instantly stopped bleeding as the tiger silhouette pounced on him and entered his body.
Chu Li frowned in surprise since he had not come across such a magical skill before.
Tan Jin’s entire body was filled with a monstrous energy as the man came at him like a ferocious tiger.
Chu Li launched another flying blade at the man.
Tan Jin’s reaction became extraordinarily fast and he was able to hit the flying blade away with his bare hand while charging ahead.
Chu Li saw that the situation was getting worse and immediately turned to escape.
It took Tan Jin two leaps to catch up to Chu Li. Then, he thrust a palm forward and hit his back.
“Bang!” Chu Li was sent flying off like a rubber ball being tossed far away. He spat a mouthful of blood as he was still flying through the air.
With another leap, Tan Jin caught up to him again and hit him once more with his palm.
His movements seemed effortless yet were incredibly fast. Although Chu Li could predict the attacks through the Nature Restoration Manifestation, he was unable to avoid them because his opponent’s movements were too fast and had exceeded his reaction time. Thus, he could only let himself get beaten up.
“Bang!” Chu Li was struck by another palm and was sent flying high in the air while he spat another mouthful of blood.
He felt like a prey that was being toyed around by a tiger, unable to decide his own fate. Such a feeling almost pushed him to the point of using his divine powers.
Tan Jin charged toward him again.
His bright eyes made it seem as if he had been completely unaffected by that blade just now. There was no longer any trace of blood at the wound on his throat and even the inner energy that entered into his body had been negated, so his movements were unrestrained and as fast as lightning. His reaction speed had become unbelievably fast as well since he had managed to hit away and dodge Chu Li’s flying blades.
As the man came closer, a cold glint shot out from Chu Li’s left hand. The flying blade instantly appeared in front of Tan Jin’s throat.
Tan Jin leisurely raised his arm and shielded his throat with his sleeve.
Another cold glint had shot out from Chu Li’s right hand almost at the same time.
Just as Tan Jin relaxed his arm and lowered his sleeve, the flying blade came at him and barely evaded the protection of the sleeve before piercing through his throat again.
A violent inner energy immediately surged into his brain.
His movements slowed down for a while, and it was during this fleeting moment of delay that Chu Li launched another blade with his right hand. In the next instant, the blade had reached Tan Jin’s eye.
“Argh!” With a furious roar, Tan Jin’s body swerved.
The flying blade shot into his eye socket and out through the back of his head, bringing a trail of blood with it.
Tan Jin was in excruciating pain as brutal inner energy entered his brain. The pain was ten times more intense than he felt in the rest of his body and he could not help but slow down his movements once again.
A cold glint shot out from Chu Li’s left hand and instantly reached Tan Jin’s other eye.
In the meantime, his right hand threw out another blade that struck Tan Jin’s mouth and penetrated directly through his throat and the back of his head.
“Argh…” Tan Jin collapsed to the ground with an angry howl.
Chu Li spat out black blood before his body went limp and fell over.
Tan Jin’s body convulsed slightly on the ground.
“Hehe… How interesting!” A peal of sudden laughter could be heard as the silhouette of a man appeared out of nowhere some distance away and then glided over the treetops to approach them.
The person was an old man with white hair and beard with a ruddy complexion. He was grinning from ear to ear while looking at Chu Li and Tan Jin.
Chu Li glanced at him with a frown before closing his eyes to channel and recuperate.
He had already noticed this person sneaking around earlier on but had been too busy to pay any attention to him.
Tan Jin’s cultivation level was much higher than his. The Nature Restoration Manifestation and the Omniscient Mirror had both played a crucial auxiliary role during this battle. Without the Light Blade, he could have really died in the hands of Tan Jin today. Nonetheless, if he had only the Light Blade, he would not have been able to defeat Tan Jin either.
By mastering the precise timing of launching his flying blades, he had often been able to defeat a more powerful opponent. It was much like this old man before him, who had appeared at such an opportune time.
The ruddy-faced old man did not wish to let him carry on with his recuperation, so he shook his head and said, “Given the level of cultivation you’ve achieved at such a young age, you’re making old people like us rather ashamed to face others.”
Chu Li remained silent and continued to channel and recuperate.
The ruddy-faced old man shook his head and sighed. “That’s why you have to die. Nothing would be better than having you perish together with Tan Jin!”
Chu Li raised an eyebrow and opened his eyes. “You don’t dare to offend the White Tiger Sect, and neither do you wish to offend the Holy Church of Light. Who are you?”
“Hehe, an idle person,” the ruddy-faced old man replied with a grin.
Chu Li scoffed in disdain. “An idle person? Since when does the Flaming Sun Sect have idle people joining them?”
“Oh…?” The old man raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Young fellow, despite your foolish looks, you’re a rather perceptive and powerful character.”
Chu Li said, “You dare to kill me?”
“I may not have the courage to kill you,” the old man from Flaming Sun Sect answered with a grin while he shook his head, “but the White Tiger Sect dares to do so. Tan Jin has certainly dared to attempt to kill you.”
“I’ve managed to kill Tan Jin. Do you think I can’t kill you as well?” Chu Li responded coldly.
The ruddy-faced old man shook his head and laughed. “Not necessarily.”
Chu Li retorted, “Even though I’m injured, killing you will still be a piece of cake!”
The ruddy-faced old man chuckled and said, “Young fellow, you’re just stalling for time. Your injuries are quite severe, aren’t they?”
“Well then, you can try and fight me!” Chu Li replied with a huff.
The ruddy-faced old man watched him vigilantly but did not dare to move too close to him. After all, even Tan Jin had died in his hands. This made him very wary of the Light Blade’s formidable power.
Chu Li curled his lip into a sneer and said scornfully, “Old man, your lack of courage is a disgrace to the Flaming Sun Sect!”
“Well then, I shall send you to your death!” As the ruddy-faced old man suddenly thrust his palms out, a scorching surge of palm energy came rolling toward Chu Li.
“Humph!” Tan Jin curled his lip in disdain and shook his head.
He was unimpressed by Chu Li’s petty little trick. Without an adequate cultivation level, such petty little tricks could only help him survive for a moment. Chu Li still would not be able to get away in the end.
