The eagle plume arrow had been forged by refined iron, thus it was hard and sharp enough to penetrate gold and break stones.
Su Mo shouted and tried to turn his body.
He threw a precise punch toward the arrow.
Boom!
With an explosive sound, the eagle plume arrow was broken. The strong force made Su Mo retreat several steps backward.
“He’s so powerful!”
Su Mo was amazed. The force of the shot was extremely strong, almost equal to a force of over 10,000kg.
The attack of the arrow was stronger than 90% of martial artists in the same realm.
Although Luo Qianfan and the ninth elder Wei Guang of the Wei’s were both in the Spiritual Martial Realm, the attack of Luo Qianfan’s arrow was much stronger than that of Wei Guang.
Su Mo only had the cultivation of Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm when Wei Guang had wanted to kill him. Thus, Wei Guang looked down on Su Mo and did not give full play to his power.
“The second shot!”
Luo Qianfan said. Three eagle plume arrows appeared in his hands at the same time.
Riding his horse, Luo Qianfan pulled the three arrows on the white bow and fully stretched it in a quick, smooth motion.
A cool breeze passed.
Buzz!
The bowstring trembled with the roar came out. The black arrow shot out from the top of the hill to Su Mo directly.
The second shot came with three arrows!
The force of each one of the three arrows was stronger than the former one. The three arrows vibrated and left no space for Su Mo to dodge.
“Ninefold Ocean Wave Fist!”
Su Mo did not dodge but instead threw a punch with both fists. The fist force was as strong as that of sea waves. It flowed constantly to kill most of the force of the three arrows. Then, he threw another punch to beat back the three arrows.
Su Mo’s eyes were just like lightning, full of fighting desire.
Su Mo had been unfavorable in face of the shot before only because he was caught off guard.
Now, he would not fail because he was well prepared.
“So I’m right that your cultivation can fend against the attack of half my strength!”
Luo Qianfan smiled and warned, “However, I’ll apply 80% of my strength in the last shot. If you can’t fend against it, you may die. Do you want to continue?”
“Half of his strength?”
Su Mo frowned, and thought, “Such a strong attack is only half his strength?”
But Su Mo had also only applied half his strength to fend against the second shot!
“Bring it on!”
Su Mo nodded with a dignified expression.
Whoosh!
At the top of the hill, Luo Qianfan suddenly jumped up like an eagle stretching its wings and rushing into the high sky.
The next moment, his body paused in the sky, overlooking Su Mo. A new black eagle plume arrow appeared in his hand.
This arrow was huge. It was about two meters long and as thick as a child’s arm. It seemed to be more a spear than an arrow.
With the arrow in his hand, Luo Qianfan roared. He opened the bow and pulled the arrow. It became a flash of black lightning and shot towards Su Mo.
Yes! It was a kill!
The big arrow was extremely fast like a drill in the air. It rotated at a high speed to form a whirlwind breaking the air.
Su Mo stood still. His clothes were blown by the strong wind and his face became grim.
The strength of the shot was more than twice stronger than that of the last shot.
Whoosh!
Su Mo unsheathed his long sword, with shining radiance.
Su Mo held the sword and injected genuine Qi into it so that the sword was full of radiance.
“Swirling Winds and Clouds!”
Su Mo shouted and waved his sword.
All the force of Su Mo’s body burst out and his blood was surging.
Su Mo used the sword to repel Luo Qianfan’s shot.
With a fierce wind, the sword radiance hit the huge arrow.
Su Mo had wanted to test whether his current strength could fend against a martial artist in the Spiritual Martial Realm.
Though Luo Qianfan was not a common martial artist in the Spiritual Martial Realm.
Bang!
The sword radiance hit the huge arrow, causing a loud explosive sound. Everything shook. Endless airflow swept the place, sending the sand, stones, grass, and trees surrounding Su Mo in every direction.
After a short while, the smoke slowly faded away.
Luo Qianfan had fallen onto the branch of a huge tree.
He stared at the site. In fact, he had not known whether Su Mo could fend against such a shot. He had once killed a Lv 2 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artist with it.
Although he had only used 80% of his strength, a martial artist at Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm could not fend against his shot, never mind Su Mo, at Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm.
After the smoke faded away, the site was a big mess. A tall figure appeared.
“Haha! This is fun!”
Su Mo smiled, looking at Luo Qianfan.
Su Mo was dirty and his clothes had been torn by the strength. He looked like a drowned rat.
However, he has not wounded aside from his arm which held the sword. It was a little limp and numb from the strong force.
“Great!”
Seeing Su Mo’s tall and straight figure and even stronger momentum, Luo Qianfan knew that Su Mo was not hurt. He admired him.
He had never thought that a martial artist with Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm could have such strong strength.
Even a common martial artist at Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm might not be as good as him!
“Haha! Luo Qianfan, do you want to go on?”
Su Mo asked loudly, with insistent fighting desire in his eyes.
Luo Qianfan jumped down from the tree. Shaking his head, he said, “No, your strength isn’t worse than mine.”
Su Mo nodded. Since Luo Qianfan did not want to continue, Su Mo could only agree with him.
Only the three shots had given Su Mo a clear idea of his own strength.
“You said that you’ll cooperate with me. What did you mean? Tell me.” Su Mo asked.
Although Luo Qianfan had stopped him from tracking the man in black, Su Mo did not hate him at all.
Luo Qianfan nodded and asked, “Well, what’s your name?”
“Su Mo!” Su Mo answered.
Luo Qianfan muttered to himself and said, “Junior Brother Su Mo, I found an underground demon cave in the center of Qingyuan Island, where there are a lot of demonic beasts and Spiritual Herbs.
“But because there are many strong Lv 2 demonic beasts in the cave, I can’t defeat them alone.
“So I want to explore the cave with you. If we go together, we can get a lot of Demonic Cores and many Spiritual Herbs.
“What do you think?”
Luo Qianfan asked, staring at Su Mo.
“The underground demon cave?”
Su Mo frowned and asked, “Have you entered the cave? What Spiritual Herbs are there? How many demonic beasts are there?”
Su Mo did not hurry to answer Luo Qianfan because he was not familiar with him.
“I’ve entered, but not very deep. I found more than four Spiritual Herbs outside the cave, but I retreated quickly because I was sieged by five Class 1 Lv 2 demonic beasts, and a Class 9 Lv 1 demonic beast.”
“So many demonic beasts! And they are all Lv 2!”
Su Mo was surprised, thinking that the demon cave presented both opportunities and risks. He asked again, “What are the demonic beasts?”
“They are worm-like beasts!”
“Worm-like demonic beasts? What kind of worm?” Su Mo was curious.
“They are the size of a human head, which I’ve never heard of. Their whole body is black and hard like iron, with wings.” Luo Qianfan was worried. These demonic beasts were so strong that Luo Qianfan could not underestimate them.
Su Mo was silent. He had never heard of such demonic beasts.
However, in Su Mo’s view, it would be of great value to obtain the Spiritual Herbs and Demonic Cores from the demon cave.
Although the demon cave was dangerous, they could escape easily if they were defeated.
“OK! I’ll fight with you!” Su Mo said to Luo Qianfan.
