Chapter 527: Demigod Taboo Treasure! (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
If the guard’s attack just now was comparable to that of a Martial Demon Realm expert, then the guard’s attack had already reached the level of a Sage. It was not just a surge in strength. His speed had also increased greatly.
As a result, Xiao Shi’s naked eye could no longer capture the other party’s axe. He could only follow his sense of danger. He made an instinctive reaction to teleport.
Boom!!
The ground shook violently like an earthquake. It was also thanks to the special geology of this place that the guard’s axe only caused the ground to tremble and did not cause any substantial damage. If they were outside, such a powerful axe would definitely cause a huge area of serious damage to the ground.
Xiao Shi’s forehead began to sweat. He felt an unprecedented pressure. According to his speculation, every time the guard attacked, his next attack would obtain a realm increase.
As such, the guard’s next attack was very likely that it would be an attack comparable to a Daolord. Even if he had the ability to teleport, it was impossible for him to dodge such an attack. The most troublesome thing was that his many methods were useless in front of the other party.
At this critical juncture, Xiao Shi decided to implement his other plan. Before he took action, he had already made preparations that his Dark Moon State might not be of any use. With his reliable personality, he could not place ail his hopes on the Dark Moon State.
He would definitely prepare another plan.
Many souls immediately appeared beside Xiao Shi. These spirit souls were the Youyue Spirits that he had obtained from the Gen Mountain Sect in the lllusionary World. When these Youyue Spirits appeared, they immediately stood in front of Xiao Shi and pounced towards the guard.
This was to help Xiao Shi attract hatred.
Boom!
This caused the huge axe that the guard slashed down to not hit Xiao Shi, but the Youyue Spirits in front of him. In an instant, it shattered the Youyue Spirits in front of him.
Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. His plan had succeeded! The second countermeasure he thought of was to release the Youyue Spirits to “block” for him. If the Youyue Spirits did not work, he would then release his clone to block the saber.
Through the guards’ attacks, he discovered an unexpected situation. Although the guard’s attacks were powerful, it seemed that he could only attack one target every time.
Logically speaking, with the terrifying power of the guard’s axe, it was definitely enough to destroy all the Youyue Spirits that Xiao Shi had released. However, he had only destroyed one Youyue Spirit. This meant that every attack of the guards could only target one target.
No matter how powerful his attack was, it could not spread to other targets. After discovering this pattern, Xiao Shi heaved a sigh of relief. Now, he had the entire Gen Mountain Sect’s Youyue Spirits in his hands.
Just the ten or so Youyue Spirits released now were enough to block the saber for him and keep him away from the guards.
Xiao Shi’s speed erupted. As he transformed into his red tiger form, the Martial Emperor’s Combat Boots appeared under his feet. He rushed towards the altar in front of him as quickly as possible.
After finding a way to deal with the guard, he could cleverly resolve it even if he was forced to trigger this taboo. This also made Xiao Shi realize that although the taboo here would cause greater trouble, it was not impossible to crack it.
If this was an unbreakable taboo, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect would not have wanted Xiang Zizhen to come. After all, with the strength of such a guard, there was not much difference between Xiang Zizhen and him. They could not even withstand the other party’s slash.
“In other words, the taboo here is terrifying. However, different taboos should have different ways to deal with and resolve them.” Xiao Shi was enlightened.
He did not need to think too much about how to break these taboos. Apart from the fact that he had to trigger this taboo, he could avoid the other taboos very well.
This was the power of luck.
Xiao Shi also discovered that among the eight taboos, there was one that he had never encountered.
It was the wind in the valley.
According to this taboo, once the wind blew in the valley, he had to stay where he was, unable to move or speak. He had to wait for the wind to stop before he could move. If the wind had risen when he was attacked by the guard just now, then the entire situation would be extremely bad.
However, with Xiao Shi’s current luck, it was impossible for such an unlucky thing to happen to him. His journey had been smooth-sailing. He did not even encounter the situation of the wind in the valley.
Xiao Shi arrived at the altar in front of him. The altar was green and made of an unknown material, and was covered in runes. The most eye-catching thing was the huge camphor tree growing on the altar.
As he approached, Xiao Shi could feel the powerful seal of this huge camphor tree even more. This camphor tree itself did not have any offensive power. It had only one function.
That was the seal!
The strength of this seal exceeded any seal Xiao Shi had seen in the past. Moreover, with the sturdiness of this camphor tree, even a Sage would not be able to destroy it with an attack..
