Chapter 550: The Hunter King's Bow
"A beast and a Human Lawmaster attacking me together? Clearly, they're both under soul control..."
"It seems it's an Insect Lawmaster..."
Beyond the Heavy Water Realm, Fang Xing calmly observed as the Blood-Patterned Golden Beast Emperor was besieged, exploding in frustration and dissipating into specks of golden light.
Even with the amplification of the Pan Wu Great Way, the Blood-Patterned Golden Beast Emperor was only at the third-tier of Lawmaster Realm. Facing such a siege, it was a hopeless battle.
However, Fang Xing didn't mind; it was just a decoy.
After observing for so long, he had already estimated the strength of these Lawmasters and the power of the Insect Lawmaster behind the scenes.
At this moment, he smiled lightly and stepped into the Heavy Water Realm.
"This Human Lawmaster... is quite confident!"
Hidden behind layers of extreme cold heavy water, the mantis-like Insect Lawmaster's compound eyes twitched slightly, and a wave of soul energy spread out: "Formation 3!"
Whoosh!
The Heavy Water Realm suddenly exerted force, and layers of heavy water pressed down.
Not only that, but over a dozen Lawmasters in the void joined forces to cast a battle array technique together.
Streams of rule power connected and outlined... forming a strange butterfly!
This dazzling butterfly was formless, and with a gentle flap of its wings, it turned into a stream of light and entered Fang Xing's sea of consciousness.
"A soul attack?"
Fang Xing's blood-red robe trembled slightly, and then he seemed to be unaware, raising his right palm.
Buzz!
An indescribable giant sun rose behind him.
This sun seemed to stand tall in infinite space and time, defying any color to depict it.
Then, the sun condensed, transforming into the Sun Tathagata, and with a palm strike, it pressed down.
Boom!
The sun's radiance enveloped the entire Heavy Water Realm, instantly evaporating the cold intent.
And then...
Lawmasters flew out, their rule bodies seemingly scorched, instantly falling into a heavily injured state!
"Not good!"
"At least a peak fourth-tier Lawmaster... maybe even a fifth-tier Lawmaster!"
The mantis-like Insect Lawmaster, hidden in the shadows, had a solemn expression. He immediately flapped his wings and retreated.
Even the Heavy Water Realm, this precious treasure, was abandoned by him.
"Fight with all your might to buy me some time."
As the mantis-like Insect Lawmaster fled, he gave orders to his slaves.
After issuing this command, his heart was bleeding, but he consoled himself: 'As long as I'm alive, there's still hope...'
On his body, a layer of dark energy appeared.
This was the 'Yin Energy' unique to the Insect race. They were innately skilled in the 'Yin Energy Rule' and possessed numerous strange powers.
For example... Yin Energy Teleportation!
The mantis-like Insect Lawmaster's figure became ethereal under the shroud of Yin Energy, about to teleport through the Yin Realm.
But this ripple was already captured by Fang Xing.
Roar!
The rule pattern condensed into a black dragon, and with a single strike, the beast Lawmaster with the two-headed leopard was annihilated.
Fang Xing's eyes carried a hint of laughter as he glanced at the battlefield: "Oh? Trying to escape?"
He pressed his eyebrows, and a heart image of the Annihilation Wolf suddenly appeared.
This Annihilation Wolf had lively eyes, with strange white spots on its pupils, and its body was engulfed in pitch-black annihilation flames.
It ran with all four limbs in the void and dove into the mantis-like Insect Lawmaster's forehead!
"A soul attack?"
"Useless, my Insect race excels in soul power, and I have a treasure for protection..."
A hint of ridicule had just flashed in the compound eyes of the mantis-like Insect Lawmaster, but suddenly, all color drained from them, and the Yin Energy dissipated. Its massive body fell from mid-air.
Whoosh!
The mantis-like Insect Lawmaster was a slave master, and after its death, the enslaved Lawmasters suddenly lost their life force, falling like cut wheat.
"I'll take them!"
Fang Xing raised his hand and collected the corpses and treasures of these Lawmasters.
After that, he approached the Insect Lawmaster and examined it: "So it's from the Mantis Clan..."
Among the Insect race, there were countless strange subspecies, and the Mantis Clan was one of the better ones.
"This Insect Lawmaster also had the strength of a fourth-tier Lawmaster. Otherwise, it wouldn't dare to block a passageway and set up a trap..."
"I launched a True Spirit attack, just to slightly delay it... but I didn't expect it to die so quickly."
Fang Xing was pleasantly surprised.
The sharpness of the True Spirit attack even exceeded his expectations.
"Hmm, war does bring in money quickly..."
After a moment, Fang Xing looked at the three precious treasures before him, a hint of satisfaction on his face.
Among these three treasures, one was a pool of cyan water, the 'Heavy Water Realm'. It could directly unfold, releasing countless streams of cold water to hinder enemies, and it could also assist in launching soul attacks.
Additionally, there was a tattered map called the 'Mitian Map', which could protect the mind, resisting soul attacks and even some will attacks.
With the 'Mitian Map' and the Insect race's soul talent, the mantis-like Insect Lawmaster wouldn't fear even a fifth-tier Lawmaster soul master.
Unfortunately, it had encountered Fang Xing.
However, Fang Xing wasn't very interested in these two treasures; the one he truly valued was the last offensive treasure.
"The Hunter King's Bow?"
In Fang Xing's hand, a pitch-black bow appeared.
Its design was ferocious, as if an exotic beast was imprisoned within the bow, with its arms fashioned into the bow's limbs.
As Fang Xing plucked the bowstring, it vibrated gently, and faint howls and wails could be heard.
"This is a treasure specifically designed to assist in soul attacks... Drawing the bowstring can amplify one's soul attack power, and it has a certain effect on will-based secret techniques..."
"Perhaps I can also use it to cast True Spirit Attack Techniques?"
The treasures of the Daxia World, in Fang Xing's opinion, were somewhat similar to the 'Imperial Weapons' of the Green Yuan Great World, both being suitable for Lawmasters in combat.
However, there were still differences in quality.
For instance, the Blood Mountain was considered a top-grade treasure.
The Heavy Water Realm was more ordinary, falling into the lower-middle grade category.
The Mitian Diagram, which could defend against soul attacks, had a very useful characteristic and could be considered an upper-grade treasure.
The last treasure, the 'Hunter King's Bow', was what one would call an 'ultimate treasure'!
"With the amplification of the Hunter King's Bow, combined with the power of the Pan Wu Great Way, my will attack might even threaten a fifth-tier Lawmaster... If it's a True Spirit Attack, it might be able to kill with a single arrow?"
Fang Xing was delighted as he stroked the black scales on the bow, and after slightly refining it, more information emerged: "This ultimate treasure, when drawn, can automatically manifest three types of arrows... The first is the 'Heavenly Wolf Arrow,' which can empower even Lawmasters unskilled in soul attacks to fire sharp soul arrows..."
"The second is the 'Moon Shooting Arrow,' which amplifies soul attacks..."
"The third is the 'Sun Annihilating Arrow,' a will attack arrow..."
"Now that it's in my hands, I still need to develop a True Spirit Arrow... The Heart Manifestation attack just now was undeniably powerful, but its speed was somewhat lacking..."
...
After passing through the Virtual Gold Mountain, Fang Xing hurried towards the Empty Flow River.
Unlike the Virtual Gold Mountain, the Empty Flow River was a vast 'Space Blade Zone' without any safe passage.
To get through, one had to navigate with utmost caution.
"Hmm?"
As Fang Xing observed, he noticed a chase in the distance.
The one fleeing in front was none other than Kun Wu!
And the pursuer was a monster entirely composed of lava.
"An energy life form, a third-tier Lawmaster from the Beast Civilization?"
"In this Jin's Secret Realm, the Taiyi Stone cannot connect to the Taiyi Universe, which is indeed inconvenient..."
Seeing Kun Wu's desperate situation, Fang Xing immediately sent a message: "Brother Kun Wu, come towards me..."
"It's Brother Fang Xing!"
Upon seeing Fang Xing, Kun Wu's eyes lit up, and he immediately flew towards him.
However, the lava energy life form chasing him did not retreat but accelerated instead.
"Hmph, courting death!"
Fang Xing drew the Hunter King's Bow, and the power of the Pan Wu Great Way descended, causing the bow and arrow to glow, and a red arrow materialized.
"Sun Annihilating Arrow!"
He released the arrow, which instantly struck the lava Lawmaster! This time, Fang Xing did not use any True Spirit Attack but infused it with his martial arts will.
In the next moment, the lava energy life form was hit by the Sun Annihilating Arrow and let out a miserable cry.
Kun Wu turned around, and for a moment, he thought he saw a giant sun falling and then instantly vanishing.
After the sun's disappearance, the lava life form had lost all signs of life and turned into a corpse.
"Brother Fang..." Kun Wu exclaimed in surprise.
"I was lucky to obtain an ultimate treasure that suits me... With this, I should have entered the fourth tier of Lawmaster..." Fang Xing explained with a smile as he stepped forward to collect the spoils of battle.
Kun Wu was considerate and knew he had no contribution, so he didn't dare to ask for a share.
"I never expected... Brother Fang, you've already advanced to the fourth tier of Lawmaster. Now, you might be able to rank within the top 200, no, even the top 100 of the Starry Sky Ranking?" Kun Wu smiled bitterly. "I fear I may have bitten off more than I can chew by entering this secret realm... Regardless, thank you. If I had died, even with the ability to resurrect, I would have been burdened with a heavy debt..."
"What are your plans now? We're heading in the same direction; we can go to the Jin Continent together." Fang Xing asked.
"The Empty Flow River is still too dangerous for me..." Kun Wu hesitated. "Originally... I thought that with only one perfected law and no connection to the Great Dao's power, I had high malleability... But now I realize that without strength, no matter how high my malleability is, the inheritance won't fall to me. I won't trouble you; I'll just leave."
Watching Kun Wu's departing figure, Fang Xing felt a sense of desolation, yet he also admired him.
Sometimes, it's not easy to maintain self-awareness even in the midst of glory.
