Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 668
Chapter 668: Fight over Heaven Crystal
Happy groaned in his heart!
Elites whom he would usually not see and elites who had never shown their faces in his previous life were appearing very frequently in this life. One ancient divine weapon had actually managed to attract many elites near Myth Realm, and some of them were even already in Myth Realm. Even though they were not like Shi Zhixuan, who had a lot of potential for growth and had already reached the peak of Myth Realm, they were still matchless existences.
The slightest mistake would attract their attention, and it would lead to an untimely death on Happy’s part.
Happy took a moment to cast a glance at Ten Thousand Swords’ reaction.
‘This guy… not only is he not worried that the situation is getting more chaotic, to the point that it’s hard for us to get involved in it now, he even looks excited. He’s staring at the Four Cloud Range Immortals before Sword Crafting Hall like he’s possessed or something!’
But Happy had to say that he understood Ten Thousand Swords.
Sword Sect had given them everything but stripped everything from them as well. That sort of betrayal was something Happy had experienced too, but the four might have had an even deeper experience with it.
Hence, as long as they could take revenge on Sword Sect, even if they were just watching other people make them suffer, it was still incredibly exciting!
The appearance of Four Cloud Range Immortals dashed the hopes of the Sword Sect Master getting Heaven Crystal. The newcomers were extremely powerful, which was happy news for Ten Thousand Swords.
“I was wondering who would be so daring as to invade the northern clan’s Heaven Shaker Fortress. I see, so it’s the Four Cloud Range Immortals…” Bei Xiao and the two old Dharma protectors strode out of Sword Crafting Hall together.
Whoosh!
The seven warriors met, and two invisible waves of qi crashed violently against each other. They formed a visible vortex at the entrance of Sword Crafting Hall. The Sword Crafting Hall disciples around them felt as if they had been pushed away by a huge hand.
Happy learned his lesson from before and was prepared. He mingled in the crowd and used its momentum to retreat more than one hundred feet away.
An empty space with a diameter of dozens of feet was instantly formed.
“I didn’t expect that the two old coots of the northern clan would still be around. Your Great Saber Breaker Art is something we admire a lot.”
The Four Cloud Range Immortals noticed the two old men whose qi did not lose to theirs standing behind Bei Xiao. They frowned and their voices became much deeper than before.
“Hmph!”
Bei Xiao swept his gaze over the area and took note of the dozens of corpses on the ground along with the disciples around him, who suffered from wounds of varying degrees. His expression immediately soured.
“Some Four Cloud Range Immortals you are. How dare you come and cause trouble in Heaven Shaker Fortress?! Today, I, Bei Xiao, would like to see how you will try to get rid the world of martial artists of Heaven Shaker Fortress’ name!”
When he said those last words, he turned into a huge black shadow. The black hammer that was more than six feet long went charging at the Four Cloud Range Immortals with a dull clap of thunder.
The four men no longer looked as relaxed as after seeing the two Dharma protectors from the mighty northern clan. Clearly, they had not expected that the two old men would be around.
Even though they had an advantage in numbers since they were fighting four against three, that advantage was not great. Besides, Heaven Crystal was right under the Sword Sect Master and the old monster of the Nangong Clan’s noses!
When Bei Xiao attacked them vigorously, one of the men snorted coldly before he suddenly appeared near the black metallic hammer that had sunk deep into the ground.
Slap!
His palm moved with a loud roar, and with a single slap, the metal staff scooped up the large stones on the floor. Then, it twirled in the air before it landed firmly in the person’s hands.
The shattered stones shot toward Bei Xiao at lightning speed!
“Child’s play!”
Bei Xiao roared in anger. He swung his hammer in the air, and a boundless force turned the shattered stones that came flying at him into powder.
The air outside Sword Crafting Hall had been drained when the Myth Realm martial artists attacked. Everyone could hear the sounds of their hearts beating loudly as if time had stopped at that moment!
“Hmph!”
The master of the palm which made a loud roar was a man who was not any weaker than Bei Xiao. When he saw that the shattered stones had no effect on Bei Xiao, it was as if the hot-bloodedness of the refusal to lose to another heavy weapons user had been lit in him.
He held his staff with two hands, and a scorching staff-generated wind went crashing against the black hammer that would terrify others. There was absolutely no flourish in the attack.
Happy narrowed his eyes. He tapped against the ground and activated his body fortification without any hesitation while airborne.
CLANG!
At the instant his body fortification was activated, the heavy weapons clashed against each other.
The deafening sound of metal clashing against metal rose, and it was as if an earthquake had happened close to the disciples. An astonishing sound wave exploded violently on the floor outside Sword Crafting Hall, and it instantly spread outward.
The violent impact made all the stones on the floor fly up before they were crushed!
The power of that wave was not weaker than the full-powered strike from a Myth Realm martial artist!
The Sword Crafting Hall disciples ten feet away felt their bodies tremble. Their chests sank, and they bled simultaneously from their ears, nose, and mouth!
While panicked screams of pain rose, hundreds of people were sent flying away!
Happy might have retreated in time and his distance from the attack was greater, but his body fortification had still shattered.
It was as if an explosion had gone off in water. His body tensed, and a shocking impact came charging violently at him! He grunted, and his Nine Yang Divine Skill circulated on its own to negate some damage, but he was still sent flying away.
Bang!
In the chaos, no one noticed that Happy had been sent flying above the Sword Crafting Hall disciples because of the shock. No one had the mood to pay attention to him, because the other three immortals had also taken action. Two of them were intercepted by the old Dharma protectors, but the last one charged into Sword Crafting Hall.
“Four Cloud Range Immortals…”
The Sword Sect Master and the old monster of the Nangong Clan had naturally been paying attention to what was going on inside. When they saw a person barge in, they snorted coldly at the same time.
Right then, the threat of the Four Cloud Range Immortals was far greater than the threat from each other. Hence, the two men decided to face their enemy together.
The person who entered Sword Crafting Hall was the strongest among the Four Cloud Range Immortals. He had a medium build with balanced muscles and wore a black armor. No emotion could be seen in his eyes behind a helmet. They only revealed a cold and emotionless gaze. But some slight hints of emotion could be seen when he saw Heaven Crystal, which was stuck in the floor.
“I didn’t expect that news of Heaven Crystal would leak. What should we do now?” The Sword Sect Master smiled coldly and looked at the old monster of the Nangong Clan next to him.
The old monster cast him a glance without saying a word. Then, his gaze landed on the mysterious man in black armor. “Hmph, Malicious Spirit, Heaven Crystal is over here. If you want it, come and take it?”
“You think I won’t dare?”
The mysterious man in black armor seemed to be called Malicious Spirit. He released a cold and hoarse snort and walked toward Heaven Crystal without bothering himself with the duo.
The Sword Sect Master narrowed his eyes.
The armor Malicious Spirit wore was created from a meteor. Its defense was astonishing, and it was said that normal divine weapons were not able to damage it. Hence, he was not troubled by the threat the Sword Sect Master and the old monster from the Nangong Clan posed.
He took a few more steps forward and extended his arm toward Heaven Crystal!
