Chapter 943 Fourth Trial: Test of Insights! (3)

As Shun Long’s gaze met with the long-haired man’s, the latter actually smiled, before he suddenly disappeared from the spot he was standing on, appearing right next to his opponent. His movements were extremely swift, almost like a mirage, while his white robes fluttered in the wind as he made his move.

In the next moment, a small black dagger materialized in his palm, as the long-haired young man thrust it towards Shun Long’s temple. The thin black dagger cut through the air like an arrow, looking to plunge itself straight into its target’s head!

Unfortunately for him, Shun Long seemed to have already anticipated his attack. His bright golden eyes that resembled a pair of suns flashed with a deep blue glow, before he effortlessly craned his neck to the side, narrowly avoiding the long-haired man’s strike.

The white-robed young man looked stunned, surprised by the sudden turn of events, but his movements didn’t stop for a moment. Seeing that Shun Long had avoided his strike he hurriedly took a step back, opening up the distance between them.

At the same time, the remaining 2 peak-stage Dao Kings also made their moves.

The first one, the young man with the messy black hair took a step forward, his figure leaving behind countless afterimages as he beelined straight towards Shun Long. The large bronze staff in his hands suddenly extended, becoming more than 10 meters(33ft) long as he swiped it sideways, aiming at Shun Long’s lower half.

The scene looked somewhat comical, as if a small ant was trying to wield a weapon more than 6 times its size, and yet somehow, the messy-haired man seemed to have no issue controlling his staff.

Almost simultaneously, the young woman with the short auburn hair also made her move; Her flaming red eyes burned with incandescent, radiant heat before a mixture of white and scarlet flames enveloped her body.

In the next moment, her figure turned into a flaming meteor as she shot herself at Shun Long with devastating speed!

Sensing the two follow-up attacks coming from both directions, Shun Long didn’t chase after the long-haired young man and decided to deal with these two new threats first.

A pitch-black sword materialized in his right hand before he swiped it downwards, looking to intercept the gigantic bronze staff first. The bronze staff swiped through the air with terrifying momentum, creating deafening sonic booms as it whistled through the air!

Then, a terrifying explosion echoed through the forest, its forceful clash even uprooting some of the gigantic pine trees in the surroundings, before the sound of metal clashing against metal filled the battlefield.

Surprisingly, the momentum of the bronze staff had been so powerful, that Shun Long felt his right hand turning somewhat numb after the impact, causing him to look at the messy-haired man with a surprised look.

However, the messy-haired young man was even more shocked right now, his gaze a mixture of astonishment and disbelief; He had imbued his ‘Dao of Light’ in this attack of his, enhancing both his own speed and the momentum of his bronze staff to a terrifying degree before he swiped it at Shun Long.

The messy-haired man was even a peak sixth-stage body refiner on top of being a peak-stage Dao King, and he had also been the one to initiate the attack… and yet, he had been the one forced to take a step back after the clash!

How terrifying was this monster in front of him? Although the messy-haired young man wasn’t a real person and was merely a soul imprint left behind in the tower countless years ago, he still possessed a certain sense of self-awareness. Additionally, his body, his qi, and the insights he had comprehended had been at the absolute peak of the Dao King realm at the time he left his imprint, making him one of the strongest Dao Kings attempting the tower’s trials. So, how could he not be surprised after losing in a contest of strength? Especially when his opponent didn’t seem to have imbued his Dao in his last attack?

Luckily, this battle was still three against one. Almost at the same time the messy-haired man was pushed back, the young woman with the auburn hair had already arrived in front of Shun Long, her lithe, delicate palm aiming for his chest with deadly force!

Although Shun Long could tell that this young woman in front of him wasn’t a body refiner, he could sense that this palm strike of hers was just as dangerous as that black dagger and the bronze staff he had faced.

However, at this point, there was no way for him to dodge this strike. The young woman had been extremely insidious and crafty with her strike, timing her attack right after Shun Long had blocked the bronze staff, not giving him any room to maneuver. Unfortunately for her, Shun Long had never planned to dodge her attack in the first place.

Clenching his left hand, Shun Long took a step forward and sent his fist to meet the incoming palm, as sparks of white lightning enveloped his entire body.

However, just as the young woman’s palm clashed with his fist, a scene that neither Shun Long nor the auburn-haired woman expected, took place next.

The young woman’s figure suddenly disappeared from the heart of the battlefield, appearing more than a hundred meters back, right next to the long-haired man and the messy-haired one. The young woman had a look of confusion on her face, quickly followed by unspeakable anger as she turned around and stared furiously at the long-haired young man behind her. Her flaming red eyes were full of indignation as she looked at him, before her rosy lips finally parted as she asked in a cold tone

”What do you think you are doing?”

However, the long-haired man only spared the woman in front of him a single glance, before he turned his gaze towards the sparks of white lightning crackling around Shun Long’s body. After a moment of silence, he answered calmly

”If I didn’t save you, you would have died just now!”freёweɓnovel.com
