Chapter 1030: Chapter 651: Protective Sword Array, Welcome to My Domain
Boom!
Cang Jue, engulfed in black flames, vanished from his original spot and reappeared in front of Lu Qing.
His speed was surprisingly several notches faster than the Sword Light escape speed that Lu Qing had demonstrated earlier.
In that instant of appearance, Cang Jueâs Bone Claw swept down with a force that could almost slice through space, striking towards Lu Qing.
Yet, at the same time, countless strands of Sword Qi formed around Lu Qing, completely shielding him.
The defensive power of this Sword Qi was immense and extremely resilient. Even though the Bone Claw shattered many strands of the Sword Qi, it couldnât fully break through the protection of the countless Sword Qi strands.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Qing transformed into Sword Light and quickly retreated backwards.
âTrying to escape, can you really escape?â
Black light surged in Cang Jueâs eyes, and his aura grew even more violent.
With a burst of momentum, his speed increased again, catching up directly to the retreating Lu Qing, and he swung another claw.
However, the Sword Qi around Lu Qing was continuously regenerating, and in just a moment, it had completely reappeared, once again blocking the Bone Claw.
âLetâs see if your Sword Qi regenerates faster, or if my power is stronger!â
Cang Jue hadnât anticipated that even after using his best means, including his trump card of merging with the Demon Artifact, he still couldnât swiftly kill Lu Qing.
But in his state of frenzy, he was no longer concerned with these matters, merely pursuing Lu Qing with extreme speed and attacking madly.
The situation, as seen from those Devils in the distance, appeared to be Lu Qing being utterly suppressed, being crushed in a one-sided assault.
Immediately, the Devils boosted their morale and began cheering loudly.
âMighty Lord Cang Jue!â
âInvincible! Invincible!â
âSlay that reptile!â
Compared to those Devils, the dozen figures within the Mysterious Space remained silent, all watching the scene on the screen with heavy expressions.
âCang Jue used Demon Artifact fusion and still cannot break the defense of this Ghost Face Mask boy; isnât he supposed to be a Sword Cultivator?â
After a while, a figure spoke in disbelief.
The other figures felt equally incredulous.
Unlike those Golden Core Realm Devils, as Primordial Spirit Realm beings, they could see very clearly what the current situation was.
It looked like Cang Jue was oppressing the Ghost Face Mask boy, but in reality, they could perceive that Cang Jueâs attacks couldnât even break through the Ghost Face Mask boyâs Sword Qi defense.
This scene left them dumbfounded.
Everyone knew that Sword Cultivators were traditionally known for their speed and attack power, with defense being their weak point.
Yet, the Ghost Face Mask boy was struck by Cang Jue with Demon Artifact fusion in such a frenzy and remained unharmed.
Such defense had reached an incomprehensible level for them.
It should be known that Demon Artifact fusion is a unique application by the Demon Clan on their Demon Artifacts.
It merges the Demon Artifact with the Physical Body, enhancing oneâs strength.
The stronger the Demon Artifact, the higher the degree of fusion, the greater the strength increase.
This is somewhat different from the Magical Treasures of the Human Race Cultivators.
Even though Cang Jueâs current Demon Artifact fusion was only in its initial stage, the Demon Artifact merged into his body was a top-grade one.
Even at the initial stage, the explosive power was extremely terrifying, far exceeding the limits of the Golden Core Realm.
But the Cang Jue who could surpass the Golden Core Realm limits couldnât break Lu Qingâs defense. How could they not be shocked by this?
âItâs a Sword Formation!â A voice said sternly at this moment.
âThis Ghost Face Mask boy has set up a small-range Sword Formation around himself, and this regenerating Sword Formation is blocking all of Cang Jueâs attacks!â
âSword Formation?â
The other mysterious figures were taken aback, but they knew that the one speaking was an Array Master. Since he said so, it couldnât be wrong.
âUnexpectedly, itâs a Sword Formation. To set up a Sword Formation within a three-foot range and to block Cang Jueâs attack, how exquisite and powerful must this Sword Formation be!
This Ghost Face Mask boy isnât a Sword Cultivator; didnât he cultivate the legacy of the Sky-breaking Sword Sect? Why can he set up such a strong Sword Formation?â
One figure couldnât help but voice the question in their heart.
Other figures couldnât help but nod in agreement.
The formidable Major Sect known to awe several Immortal Domains had its Cultivation Techniques well-known for their reputation.
Those sword maniacs were famous for their combative and brave pursuit on the path of the Sword Dao, advancing unyieldingly, slaying heaven and exterminating earth, slaughtering everything, and insane with fervor.
The Sword Intent the Ghost Face Mask boy displayed earlier matched this description.
How suddenly could he understand setting up a Sword Formation, and such a refined and powerful one at that?
âApparently, this Ghost Face Mask boy cultivates the Sword Formation Skill. Perhaps this is what Liu Old Devil mentioned about his Sword Intent being impure. Being a Primordial Spirit Sword Cultivator, Liu Old Devil must have realized that this boy doesnât follow the pure Sky-breaking Sword Sect path.â
The Array Master analyzed.
The ensemble of figures was enlightened, recalling Liu Old Devilâs previous description of the boyâs evaluation, passed on by the Ghost Face Mask figureâs retelling.
Just earlier, they saw the Sword Dao performed by the Ghost Face Mask boy, so exquisitely superb it reached the extreme of the Golden Core Realm. They hadnât thought that his true trump card lay in the Sword Formation Skill.
âThe Ghost Face Mask boyâs Sword Formation Skill has been cultivated to a highly refined realm,â the Array Master continued. âThe Sword Formation set around his body may appear tiny, only covering a three-foot range around him.
