Urban Invincible Overlord

Chapter 1489 - 1486: Duel

After severely injuring Han Dachun, the late-stage Core Formation expert of the Mu Family raised his eyes to look at Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang, who had teleported close. Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and cast a Fireball Technique.

The secret of the Mu Family obtaining the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass must not be leaked, otherwise, the top masters of the Southern Domain would certainly come to demand it.

Whoosh!

A sharp whistling sound simultaneously echoed.

A flying sword sliced toward the Mu Family expert with astounding speed.

The Mu Family expert was taken aback, unprepared for the female cultivator’s Sword Control Technique’s remarkable strength and overpowering Sword Intent. He hurriedly crushed a Fourth Rank Vajra Talisman, and immediately a golden shield appeared in front of him.

Boom!

The flying sword directly slammed into the Vajra Talisman.

The Fourth Rank Vajra Talisman, capable of withstanding a blow from an early-stage Nascent Soul powerhouse, instantly developed a crack.

The Mu Family expert felt a chill in his heart, realizing he could not regard these two cultivators with ordinary perceptions.

This female cultivator’s Sword Control Technique far exceeds that of her peers in the same realm, truly terrifyingly strong.

Though Qin Yanyang’s flying sword failed to break the opponent’s defense, she was not surprised. With a thought, the flying sword spun and struck again, aiming precisely at the previous spot.

In an instant, the crack on the Vajra Talisman shield before the Mu Family expert expanded several-fold, nearly shattering.

The flying sword retreated momentarily before stabbing rapidly once more at the same location.

Buzz!

The Vajra Talisman shield shattered and collapsed.

The Mu Family expert was utterly dumbfounded.

A mere early-stage Core Formation cultivator broke his Fourth Rank Vajra Talisman with just three sword strikes?

The power of this Sword Control Technique is simply unrivaled.

Could this woman indeed be a Sword Cultivator?

Just as he was astonished, the Mu Family expert’s eyes suddenly darkened, and he yelled angrily, "How dare you!"

At that moment, while Qin Yanyang kept him occupied, Yang Fei had already seized the chance to rush towards the felled Han Dachun, seemingly ready to control him.

In a critical moment, the Mu Family expert swiftly released three magical talismans towards Yang Fei.

An immobilization talisman, a Thunder Talisman, and a Fire Talisman.

In the cultivation world, talismans are widely used in combat because they are faster and more direct than spell casting.

The most crucial aspect is that talismans are pre-made, containing immense power. They only require a bit of mana to activate, thus sparing the user from much depletion. However, during battles, cultivators often face significant consumption of both mana and telekinesis, making talismans a preferred choice initially.

Han Dachun had exhausted all his talismans and means during his escape to this point, but the Mu Family expert had only just begun to use his, with many still at his disposal.

Yang Fei approached Han Dachun via Instant Teleportation Technique, aiming to control him, but suddenly he felt his scalp tingling.

He immediately became alert, sensing an invisible force immobilizing him, rendering him unable to move.

The surrounding void seemed frozen.

This reminded him of the binding method Wang Yuanxiao used against him back then.

He was shocked inside, wondering whether a Divinity Transformation Realm master had intervened.

In his fear, he vaguely sensed something was amiss.

This restraining force wasn’t as terrifying as Wang Yuanxiao’s Domain binding.

Whoosh!

Flames surged as the Fire Talisman cracked open, terrifying flames opened wide like a giant beast’s mouth, intent on devouring Yang Fei.

Boom!

The Thunder Talisman also exploded, with the lethal Thunder Power accurately targeting Yang Fei’s body.

The Mu Family expert felt relieved, assuming that after his combo attack, even if that boy didn’t die, he would be severely injured.

However, at that moment, his vision blurred as Yang Fei disappeared from the immobilization.

"How could it be!"

The Mu Family expert was shocked.

The immobilization talisman had clearly taken effect, so why could this person escape?

Before he could fully process his shock, an expression of anger crossed his face: "Think you can escape?"

While the expert dealt with Yang Fei, Han Dachun had already vanished into the forest, using the Wood Escape Technique to conceal and flee amidst the chaos.

Boom!

High above, Qin Yanyang had broken a Fourth Rank Vajra Talisman with three sword strikes, but before she could strike the Mu Family’s late-stage Core Formation expert again, two mid-stage Core Formation experts from the Mu Family intercepted her.

One of them unleashed several Thunder Skills, forcing Qin Yanyang into continuous retreat.

Though her Sword Control Technique was strong, her realm was still only early-stage Core Formation. Facing the Thunder Skills from mid-stage Core Formation experts, she lacked corresponding countermeasures, relying solely on Protective Gang Qi and her long sword to withstand the assault. Strategically, she quickly fell behind, retreating step by step.

The other mid-stage Core Formation expert from the Mu Family, seeing Qin Yanyang suppressed and Han Dachun using Wood Escape to conceal himself, flashed down into the forest, disappearing as well.

The late-stage Core Formation expert saw the clan’s best tracker, Old Nine, pursuing Han Dachun, and ceased worrying.

The one who stole the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass was highly adept in Earth Escape and Wood Escape Techniques, yet was still pursued due to Old Nine of the Mu Family.

Even in his prime condition, Han Dachun failed to escape Old Nine’s tracking. Now, heavily injured, escaping is impossible.

The strongest expert from the Mu Family present extended his Divine Sense, instantly locking onto Yang Fei’s position after his teleportation escape, and used a Godspeed Talisman to chase him.

Yang Fei had just escaped, only to see the Mu Family expert charging at him. He first confirmed that Han Dachun had vanished, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes, deciding to deal with these pursuing experts first.

The Soul Binding Rope appeared in his hand. As the Mu Family expert materialized, Yang Fei leveraged the Talisman Instant Transmission Technique to swiftly close the gap, positioning himself within ten meters of the expert, swinging the Soul Binding Rope.

But he underestimated the prowess of a late-stage Core Formation expert.

Utilizing the Talisman Instant Transmission stunned everyone, yet this teleportation was ultimately not the Divine Power grasped by Divinity Transformation Realm masters who directly understood Space Laws.

While Talisman Instant Transmission is defenseless among peers, to late-stage Core Formation experts, the slight spatial fluctuations when teleportation ends can still be sensitively detected.

Crucially, late-stage Core Formation experts move extremely swiftly as well.

Thus, during the instant Yang Fei teleported and swung the Soul Binding Rope, the Mu Family expert already sensed it, negating its true surprise attack effect.

"Hmph, overestimating yourself!"

Feeling this whip sweeping over, seemingly able to disturb his state of mind, the Mu Family expert snorted disdainfully, treating it as a low-rank magic treasure with some enchanting effect. He didn’t take it seriously, and with a thought, a flying sword shot forth like lightning, aimed straight at Yang Fei’s heart.

Yang Fei was horrified.

This sword’s speed was incredibly fast, leaving him with no time to dodge, making instantaneous teleportation his best option.

But the Soul Binding Rope had already struck the opponent, seeing the opponent’s careless attitude, clearly unaware of the rope’s mighty power. This was the best chance to strike heavily.

Even though Yang Fei had many techniques, he was still a small half-realm behind the opponent in cultivation, creating a significant disparity in strength.

If he missed this golden opportunity to use the Soul Binding Rope in a surprise attack, once the opponent realized its power, it would be much harder to succeed later.
