Chapter 173: Chapter 8 Carving Arts, Engraving a Sword (7K, Guaranteed double chapter merge)_2

“Stop!!”
Chi Hu Jun roared, charging at Li Hao once again.
Li Hao embraced the pig’s fang he had drawn out and turned to look at the onrushing Chi Hu Jun. His eyes were icy as he suddenly executed a sword technique he had devised himself – a single-target killing move.
Meteor’s Fall!
This was a sword technique infused with Meteor’s Intent, sharing a wondrous similarity to Furious Star.
Using the fang as a sword, the white light shone in an instant, and Sword Qi crisscrossed the air. Li Hao layered in the ‘Hidden Bow’ characteristics from the swordsmanship patterns within his flesh, allowing him to conceal his true killing technique. Once struck without notice, the destructive power would be doubled!
Chi Hu Jun roared in shock and anger, swinging the divine iron chains on his body and fiercely lashing them at the Sword Qi emitted by the fang.
The whip shadows were like dragons, shattering the Sword Qi effortlessly as if encountering no resistance.
Before Chi Hu Jun could react, a supremely sharp light of a sword surged from the darkness.
The sword light pierced through his chest, splattering a great deal of blood, and his internal organs burst.
Being of the Unwithering Realm, his flesh was already indestructible, but at this moment, he could not withstand the power of this sword.
Chi Hu Jun’s body staggered back, his eyes showing horror. Feeling the shadow of death looming over him, he hurriedly used his Unwithering Strength to heal his flesh.
However, without looking back and while his body was still healing, he seized the momentum of the impact to turn around and flee!
Li He, watching from the shadows, widened his eyes in disbelief.
When Li Hao had first come tracking them, he had inwardly sighed, feeling it was a tough case. Even dealing with these two Great Demons himself would be challenging.
Yet Li Hao had seriously wounded and repelled them in the blink of an eye, with his own strength alone!
This son of Li Tian Gang, the legitimate young master, was simply monstrously non-human!
As a Grandmaster of the Heavenly Human Realm, battling against enemies from the Three Immortal Realms was not unheard of. For example, among the Li Family’s direct descendants, most had such achievements, but they were only against the early stages of the Immortal Realm.
If they encountered a mid-stage foe, they would rely on their Divine Weapons to engage in combat.
But Li Hao was alone against two – barehanded, he had brought them to their knees!
Seeing the fleeing Chi Hu Jun, a cold glint flashed in Li Hao’s eyes. He suddenly threw the boar’s fang, covering it with the power of object control and utilizing the characteristics of the ‘Flying Phase’ from his chess manual.
This method, recorded alongside the Myriad Imagination Chess Manual and embedded within his body, was rarely used by Li Hao.
Flying Phase allowed the attack range to double, possessing the ability for ultra-long-range strikes, along with an additional increase to the attack’s power!
At this moment, his Flying Phase stacked upon Hidden Bow, along with the inherent Sword Intent covering the boar fang, instantly covering tens of miles.
Although Chi Hu Jun was fast enough to cause the ground to thunder while fleeing, the sudden sound of air being torn approached at an incredible speed.
His eyes widened in terror as he roared, swinging his chains in an attempt to slow down the fang’s assault.
However, the fang crumbled upon contact and was sent flying by his chain.
But the real killing move was the Sword Qi hidden behind it.
With a thud, it instantly swept across Chi Hu Jun’s body. His huge tiger frame trembled as it crashed to the ground, splitting apart.
With the divine iron of the chains still binding him, he blocked that Sword Qi, the rest of his body being cleanly bisected.
Li Hao glanced over and remotely controlled the boar fang to pierce down towards Chi Hu Jun’s head.
A strand of Divine Soul tried to scramble out from its head, seeking to flee, but was instantly shattered by the plummeting boar fang, Divine Soul and all!
Such a Great Demon, if its Divine Soul remained, could inhabit another being, or even seize the Human Race for survival.
Having dealt with Chi Hu Jun, Li Hao’s gaze shifted to the Six-Fanged Hibernating Boar struggling on the ground. Without any courtesy, he summoned back his fang and, soon after, similarly penetrated the boar demon’s head, nailing it to the ground.
The night wind was bone-chillingly cold.
The stench of blood permeated the air.
Li Hao stood on the body of the Three Immortals boar demon, pulling out its other boar fang as well.
Apart from the Feipeng, which had initially reacted quickly and escaped, these two Great Demons of the Immortal Realm had been slain by Li Hao!
As a member of the Heavenly Human Realm, having slain two Immortal Realm Great Demons, the young figure stood in the night wind, stark and piercing, like a javelin.
The battle over, Li Hao’s tense body relaxed. The aftereffects of the Seven-Star Lighting and the over-exertion of the Yin and Yang Dual Pulse hit him, and he couldn’t help but gasp for breath, feeling a sense of fatigue and weakness all over.
He had not yet reached the Unwithering Realm and couldn’t rely on the Unwithering Strength to instantly replenish his state.
But fortunately, with his ability to conceal and nurture, as long as he relaxed his body, he could slowly recover. In this aspect, he was incomparable to other members of the Heavenly Human Realm.
Li Hao did not rush back to the camp but sat on the carcass of the boar demon, resting.
At this state, as long as it wasn’t an Immortal Realm demon, he still had the power to resist.
If there were any Immortal Great Demons lurking in the dark, they’d have to rely on his father to take action.
This battle had allowed Li Hao to faintly touch upon his current limits of power, a result that gave him satisfaction.
But at the same time, he felt the immense dominance of that man’s power during their earlier battle in the city.
After recovering his Cultivation Level to the Three Immortals Middle Stage following the breaking of the Vow of the Heart, he could easily suppress him.
This was the power of a True Dragon of the Li Family, a top peerless prodigy, far more formidable than an Immortal Realm Great Demon of the same realm, practically a sweeping force.
Unless faced with an attack by over ten top Immortal Realm Great Demons, one could possibly push him to his limit.
However, back then, he wasn’t as strong as now – with his current power, perhaps he could at least fight to a draw.
