The Heavenly Road: God Hunters

Ch58 Golden Ape VS Illusion Sword

On the third day of the arena the Martial Arts Tournament looked even more festive than the previous days. That's because today is the sixth phase match which is the round of 8.

Han took out the Ice Freezing Arrangement at the start of the match as well as activating the essence of his Ice Beer Gem made the arena atmosphere very cold.

"You're great enough to survive under the pressure of the Ice Freezing Arrangement with just an aura. I seem to underestimate you too much,"

"Brother Han looks up to me too highly,"

Han Bin started the first slash attack. The attack was quite powerful as it basically amplified Han Bin's attack.

Asta twisted the Dark Sky with one hand, enough to withstand the cold sword slash. A violent clash of swords rang out shrouding the arena, the fight becoming so fierce as time passed.

"Magic Heavenly Art, Led Ice Island,"

Han unleashed a powerful attack. The surge produced by his cold sword slash created an ice path that pushed him several steps.

"Empic Heavenly Art, Divine Slash,"

Retaliating for the attack Asta issued a Divine Slash to destroy the ice track, but unfortunately the manager was too weak and the level was different from Han Bin's Ice Island Blow.

Asta was thrown backwards in a hurry he stuck his sword into the arena before he fell out of the arena.

'His attack is very strong! The bloodthirsty aura of my Dark Sky sword is not enough to destroy this array. I have to be serious if I want to win'

Asta thrust his sword over the arena. Closing his eyes, he managed his breath and spirit calmly.

Han Bin did not miss the opportunity. He went forward to give an attack once more on him. Just a few inches away from him, Asta opened his eyes, and the array shattered and Han Bin slammed into the back.

That one look shattered all his concentration. Asta just stared at him sharply but the instant his soul was injured, Han Bin staggered and vomited blood.

'What happened?!!'

His hand trembled violently, his sword falling onto the arena floor. At that moment, he fell down and was unconscious.

The audience wondered what was happening exactly and why Han Bin suddenly lay unconscious.

What Asta did was actually just suppress it with his Spirit Essence, he had no idea that the effect would be that powerful to the point of making him unconscious. Naturally the effect was that strong, because Asta himself combined two aura techniques of the Dark Fire God and the Destruction God combined with the power of his spirit essence which was a True Spirit.

Asta came down from the arena while holding Han Bin who was lying on the ground. Feeling guilty, he put a healing pill into his mouth.

Aura techniques are the basic understanding for creating domains. Although the aura technique did not physically injure, it directly attacked the opponent's soul. If the opponent's soul force was weaker then he would be instantly hit by a crushing attack like the one that happened to Han Bin.

Basically Han Bin's soul force was also quite strong because in addition to martial cultivators he was also an Arrangement Master. But he himself fell down with a single blow from the attack, showing just how powerful Asta's soul force was.

Next there was Kenshin against Wen Han the Golden Ape. With his spirit Wen jumped on top of the arena following Kenshin.

"Greetings to Ken's brother, Ken,"

"Greetings know too" he answered lightly.

The second match began with Kenshin crashing with his sword technique. His slash was merciless and terrifying, Wen could only twist his staff to follow Kenshin's extremely agile movements.

Wen pushed back he then immediately activated his spirit essence then jumped towards him alternately attacking.

Kenshin's extremely fast movements made it difficult to attack, but Wen's instincts after turning into a Golden Ape could give Kenshin a slight attack.

Kenshin jumped back a little, prepared with the horses and disappeared from sight.

"The Embodied Sword Arts, First Slash"

A barrage of sharp sword slashes emerged from Kenshin's trajectory. From the attack Wen got several slash wounds. On the other side Kenshin was getting ready to give another attack.

"The Embodied Sword Arts, Second Slash"

A series of sword slashes pointed swiftly at Wen Han. Wen tried to close his eyes to concentrate, the twist of his stick successfully brushed off the attack.

"First Transformation, Crazy Monkey"

Instantly Wen let out a reddish rampaging aura from his body. His eyes looked red as blood, in an instant he disappeared from Kenshin's sight.

Haven't reacted with his sudden change he got an attack from behind. Kenshin slumped to the floor. The attack was so powerful that Kenshin was sure if not for his sturdy body, the attack would have made him unconscious at this time.

Kenshin rushed back up, he was a little surprised by Wen Han's attacks and speed that increased many times over.

The spectators were whispering about the changing aura belonging to Wen Han, which was the transformation of the Mad Ape.

'His speed is crazy! His attacks became stronger due to the rampage of the Mad Ape, his attack earlier was equivalent to that of a 3-Star Master. I have to be serious!'

Wen attacked again crazily. His speed increased than before. Difficulty in dealing with these attacks Kenshin did not have the opportunity to strike back.

Laughing giggling Wen Han played his staff agilely, coupled with his nimble movements he suppressed Kenshin's movements.

Kenshin jumps up to save himself, but it is not suspected that Wen's golden staff was able to extend and hit him.

Kenshin fell into the arena not knowing how many blows he had received from the stick. To be sure he received more injuries than Wen Han.

Thinking of being able to end the match Wen Han gave his final attack.

"Technic Spirit, Nothingness"

"What...?!"

How surprised Wen was when he found out that in front of him was only a shadow. He turned his wand back, but there was nothing there. The look on his face became alarmed, he could not see Kenshin everywhere.

Instantly from beside him Kenshin emerged from the air, but only his upper body.

Sensing the danger of Wen hastily twisting his staff, Kenshin re-united with the air.

"The Embodied Sword Arts, the Fourth Slash"

Instantly within a radius of several meters from him appeared a sword slash attack that came out of nowhere. The attacks Wen Han could still handle with his cane, but his breathing slowly began to pant. The side effects of using the transformation are already beginning to show.

"The Embodied Sword Arts, Third Slash"

There was the sound of a sword being put into its sheath. Then Kenshin suddenly appeared out of nowhere above the arena while walking towards the stairs down.

"Slashh..!!!"

Wen Han fell to the floor with a slash wound on his back just before Kenshin set foot on the stairs.

"If... Mastery.. My base... Perfect.. Maybe...." Wen also fell and was unconscious.

The match ended in a Kenshin victory. After Wen Han lay unconscious. The audience began to cheer him, the fight that had been seen Wen Han who would win the fight turned out to end with his defeat under the sword Kenshin.

The owl face mask and sword techniques attracted the attention of the audience, so they gave him the nickname of the Illusory Sword.

Kenshin walked towards Asta, looking relaxed like nothing.

"Ken wasn't it a bit..... What's up?!"

"Some of my spine is fractured. Don't ask a lot of questions first, help me to the break room," said Kenshin softly in a soft tone. It was obvious that he was enduring the pain.

Asta was surprised when Kenshin almost collapsed in front of him, immediately he helped him walk into the break room.

Hao Chen who saw the two of them go towards the break room at least understood what happened to Kenshin.

"It looks like he has internal injuries. Even if it were, I would have experienced something similar. He paid a high price for his victory this time," Hao Chen murmured softly.

"Brother Hao what are you paying attention to...?" Yan Jian asked while frowning in astonishment.

"none. I just look around,"

The match immediately began, Yan Jian raised his weapon. It looked like a sword of thorns and again it could extend itself. On the other hand Hao Chen was not seen taking out the Heavenly Blue Lotus, standing quietly on the arena floor.

"Brother Hao where is your Blue Lotus, why don't you take it out" Yan Jian said.

"This time I want to fight seriously, so I will also use my weapon,"

Asta who was carrying Kenshin to the rest room immediately stopped pecking for a moment to feel the aura of the sword that he was very familiar with.

"What are you aware of" Flares said.

Fortunately Kenshin was unconscious, he also laid his body on the seat not to forget he also gave him a healing pill that Kenshin had previously given before he was unconscious.

"Teacher.... Wasn't the Night Devil inside the ring why his aura spread out like this. Dark Sky is also in the ring, teacher," said Asta confused.

"Although this is so but this is not the sword aura of the Night Devil or Dark Sky if you feel well. This is another sword,"

"Hao Chen...?!!!" Asta rushed to the arena to see what was happening.

But when he got there the fight was over and Hao Chen sheathed the sword pulled all his aura so that it really returned to how it was.

'The sword he used must be equivalent to the Night Demon Sword which was an Artifact of the Spirit God,'

The spectators were also amazed to see the sword aura that Hao Chen displayed was so terrifying plus they were all convinced it was one of the Spirit God Artifacts.

Only a weapon that had killed countless lives could give off such an aura. Even though the sword Asta used previously had the same bloodthirsty aura, it was still at a reasonable limit. It was different from the one Hao Chen used.

Seeing the sword the Great Family Chiefs and the 7 Great Sects were about to descend upon the arena catching him. A bloodthirsty aura that could shake the soul of an Immortal Cultivator was not something an ordinary person could possess.

Only a sword that had killed millions of creatures could have such an aura. Thinking that Hao Chen had it they were convinced he was both a spy as well as a high-ranking member of the Demon Race. It was impossible for a human cultivator to have such a dangerous heirloom sword.

Before they acted into the arena, Manager Row and Emperor Arkhan let out his fighting spirit simultaneously preventing the commotion they were about to make.

"Whoever feels great and wants to show strength please go down to the arena" said the Manager slowly but clearly heard throughout the arena.

"Whoever touches her, my niece. Then it is the same as opposing me," said the Arkhan Emperor.

Everyone was astonished, hearing the words coming out directly from the Arkhan Emperor's mouth. Manager Row also intervened in that regard.

The commotion subsided after the Emperor announced that Hao Chen was his nephew, as well as Manager Row protecting him. Suspicion disappeared and the atmosphere of the match became restrained.

"Since when did they become my uncle...? They don't even care how it all happened" Hao Chen muttered as he watched the two of them protecting him.

Hao Chen came down from the arena ignoring all that, "thank you," he said briefly.

"What's wrong with him why his attitude has become like that" Asta muttered softly questioning the change in attitude that Hao Chen showed the two high-ranking people.

"There may have been an incident that made him behave like that to the Manager and the Emperor. There seems to be a misunderstanding between him and them. It seemed like Uncle Hao had also not told him about his obvious origin to him,"

Asta walked over to him and asked what was going on. Hao Chen answered slowly that there was nothing, he only defeated his enemy like Asta did. After that, he told her to go to the break room for a moment.

The match was continued, the next one who would fight in the last fight was Tang San against Cang Hue.

"Brother Cang is a great opponent! I think I can play with you!"

"Brother Tang was overly complimenting. I see your abilities are also amazing so I'll be serious this time,"

Tang San lifted his Wind Breaking Hammer and then smashed it onto the arena floor. The arena was destroyed due to his attack.

Cang Hue jumped in the air he gave his tread attack. Tang San deftly brushed off the attack with his leisure.

"It's worth it that brother Cang's tread attack is very strong. It turned out that because the Spirit Essence of brother Cang was the Star Hand,"

"Your insights are vast, brother Tang. But I'm sorry I'm gonna beat you anyway,"

"Then let's prove it. My Wind Breaker Hammer, or your more powerful Star Hand,"

Tang San jumped up into the sky while raising his hammer into space. His hammer turned into a giant hammer he smashed the hammer towards Cang Hue.

"Spirit Techniques, Heaven Shaking Hammer"

Not to be outdone Cang Hue also issued his strongest moves to fight the hammer.

"Spirit Techniques, Hands of the Gods of the Universe"

The two of them clashed together to create an explosion of extremely powerful energy waves. Rush the arena guards put up protectors to protect the spectators who were watching.
