Chapter 70

Boom! Boom!

In the ruins, the faint sound of thunder echoed continuously. Not far away, students from other academies watched the scene. Under their gaze, Shi Kong unleashed his full combat power, forcing Li Luo to retreat and dodge continuously.

If this situation continued, it wouldn't be long before Li Luo was directly eliminated.

This made them shake their heads secretly. Although Li Luo's rise had been rapid, he still fell short against a strong opponent like Shi Kong. It was a pity.

Clang!

Under the watchful eyes of many, the fierce clash of blade and spear sent Li Luo flying again, directly crashing into a dilapidated building.

Shi Kong stood with his spear, his eyes looking down at the building with a disdainful gaze. Lightning-like energy surged around him, giving off a powerful oppressive aura.

"Li Luo, it seems you're not yet capable of turning the tide," he smiled slightly, his words tinged with a hint of mockery.

"If you want to save some face, you should surrender now."

Inside the dilapidated building, the light was dim. Leaning against the wall, Li Luo listened to Shi Kong's voice outside and suddenly smiled, muttering to himself, "What a formidable opponent."

"It seems I was a bit naive, thinking I wouldn't have to go this far. But the timing is just right now."

His expression was a bit helpless as he held the twin blades and brought their hilts together. The hilts were shaped like beast mouths, and when they fit together, the fangs interlocked. With a slight twist, they connected directly.

At the same time, the blades extended slightly, deepening the curve of the blades. It looked like a large bow formed by the twin blades.

Indeed, it was a large blue-silver bow.

Li Luo extended his finger and pressed it against the hilt. A small hole appeared at the tip of the blade, and a silver thread shot out. Li Luo gently twisted it, forming a bowstring.

This was the specially crafted phase tool he had requested. Normally, it took the form of twin blades, but few knew it had another hidden form—the large bow named "Lan Guang Bow" by Li Luo.

Li Luo tightly gripped the bow formed by the twin blades. This was his hidden trump card, which he originally didn't want to reveal. However, being too low-key could lead to a setback.

He raised his head and looked at Shi Kong's silhouette outside, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, but it was filled with an extremely cold chill.

At that moment, outside, Shi Kong also felt a vague sense of unease, frowning slightly. In the next instant, his long spear turned into a silver light and shot directly into the dilapidated building.

Boom!

A burst of phase energy echoed, but a figure shot out from above and landed on a distant, vine-covered, broken stone pillar.

It was Li Luo.

Shi Kong gripped his spear, which was drawn back into his hand, and looked at Li Luo with a slightly furrowed brow, especially at the large blue-silver bow in his hand.

At the same time, both inside the White Spirit Ruins and outside the White Spirit Mountain, many surprised and doubtful gazes were directed at Li Luo, who had suddenly drawn a large bow. Clearly, they didn't understand what he was trying to do.

"Are you still trying to act mysterious at this point?" Shi Kong said coolly.

Li Luo didn't speak but took a deep breath and drew the bowstring. In the next moment, phase energy poured out of his body, forming a faint light arrow on the bowstring.

The arrowhead and shaft of the light arrow glowed brightly, formed by condensed light phase energy. Only Li Luo knew that within this arrow, the light phase energy had created many orderly hollow channels. These light hollows were densely distributed along the arrow, and he used water phase energy to flow through them at high speed, pushing each other.

The feeling was as if light was carrying water, flowing at an indescribable speed.

When water reached this speed, who would still say it was gentle and weak?

Li Luo felt the rapid depletion of his phase energy, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The foundation of this phase technique was actually a high-level water phase technique, "Water Flow," and a high-level light phase technique, "Flowing Light Technique."

Using these two techniques as a base, Li Luo had gone through numerous ideas and countless failures, eventually leveraging his insight into phase techniques to successfully transform them.

He called this arrow

Lan Guang Heavenly Flow Arrow.

This was Li Luo's most powerful and lethal phase technique, his final trump card.

Shi Kong's originally calm and composed expression changed when the light arrow condensed on Li Luo's blue-silver bow and locked onto him. At that moment, he inexplicably felt a pervasive sense of pain, as if facing a formidable enemy capable of posing a significant threat to him.

"How is this possible? He only has an eighth-seal phase power, how can he make me feel such fear?" Shock surged in Shi Kong's eyes. With the enhancement of his Thunder Armor, he was unafraid even when facing the peak Qiu Qing'er. How could Li Luo pose a threat to him?

What is that light arrow of Li Luo's?

Is it a high-level phase technique? But a technique of that level couldn't possibly be activated by an eighth-seal phase power!

If it's not a high-level phase technique, why does it make me feel so uneasy?

His eyes flickered, and suddenly, Shi Kong's figure shot back. Facing Li Luo's unknown arrow, he didn't rashly advance but chose to retreat temporarily.

He believed that this arrow would be Li Luo's final attack. As long as he could avoid it, Li Luo would be like fish on a chopping board, at his mercy.

Li Luo looked calmly at the retreating Shi Kong. Your lightning phase power is indeed adept at speed, but can you be faster than water carried by light?

The bowstring was drawn to a full moon, and Li Luo's finger suddenly released it.

Buzz!

At that moment, a low hum seemed to sound.

Everyone saw a streak of light shoot through the air, but it was almost impossible to see its flight path.

Boom!

The light arrow shot out, and Shi Kong's hair stood on end. He roared, "Thunder Step!"

Lightning flashed under his feet, and his speed reached its peak.

However, it was all useless.

Shi Kong only saw a streak of light pass through his field of vision, and then he saw a hole suddenly appear in the wall in front of him, with the light of the setting sun shining through it.

In the critical moment, Shi Kong roared, his phase energy surging, and his spear shot out like a thunder dragon, smashing forward.

Clang!

A crisp sound followed, and Shi Kong's eyes widened in shock as he saw his lightning-imbued spear split in half at that moment.

The light arrow shot out from the broken spear and, in just a few breaths, pierced through his outstretched left palm, right in front of his horrified eyes.

The so-called Thunder Armor lasted less than a moment before being pierced and shattered.

Ah!

A piercing scream echoed.

Shi Kong's left arm bled profusely, and he was thrown back, crashing into the ruins, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The entire White Spirit Mountain seemed to fall silent in an instant.
