Chapter 498: Chapter 498: The Heavenly Inquiry Spear is Taken, Wielding the Sword to Wound the Enemy!

The torrential spiritual power rushed into Kong Wu’s body through the tip of the spear.

But Lu Chen had overlooked the terrifying aspect of the unblemished body!

"Haotian Devouring Giant Technique!"

Enduring immense pain, Kong Wu grabbed the shaft of the spear and roared out the incantation!

In an instant.

A tremendously powerful suction force emerged, using the spear as a medium, aiming to draw away the Five Elements Spiritual Power from within Lu Chen’s body!

"Not good!"

Lu Chen was caught off-guard by the sudden turn of events. He had injured Kong Wu, but he didn’t want to suffer losses as well!

Immediately, he tried to retrieve the Heavenly Inquiry Spear, but the immense suction force generated by the Haotian Devouring Giant Technique rendered his effort futile!

Even, Lu Chen felt his hands were firmly attached to the spear!

If this continued, he feared he too would be drained dry!

Disregarding the Heavenly Inquiry Spear, Lu Chen’s body shook as he rapidly separated himself from the spear, but this action also resulted in a backlash that made him taste blood, and he spat out a mouthful!

He retreated several steps, barely stabilizing his form, and watched Kong Wu with an extremely grave look.

This was the first time he had met such a formidable opponent.

Truly worthy of being the pride of the first-rate sect, Haotian Sect!

However, the fact that he managed to injure his opponent was already a matter of pride!

But to be happy, he would have to kill the opponent first!

Now, although the enemy was injured, Lu Chen was left without a handy magic artifact!

Having forced Lu Chen back, Kong Wu swiftly pulled the Heavenly Inquiry Spear out of his wound, which once again erupted in a spurt of blood.

But Kong Wu appeared unmoved; he feared that Lu Chen would take back the spear, but since it was Lu Chen’s magic artifact and Lu Chen was still very much alive, he couldn’t erase the imprints to store it away, so he could only hold it in his hand.

And in his other hand, he was gripping his own silver hook.

"Kid, without your spear, I’d like to see how you fight me!"

He freed one hand and pulled out a pill from his storage bag and popped it into his mouth.

The medicine took immediate effect, stemming the bleeding and stabilizing his breath, which had been irregular.

Lu Chen’s pupils contracted as he realized another issue he had overlooked; how could the treasures on the prodigy of Haotian Sect ever be inferior?

He himself was hit by the rebound force, and although he also had pills, after the ordeal with the pills that drove three female cultivators from Spirit Sound Sect into madness, Lu Chen dared not carelessly consume other pills he had acquired from Gui Zhuo.

It had not been easy to wound Kong Wu; if he were to recover, would not all efforts be in vain?

With that thought, Lu Chen disregarded the still-reverberating Five Elements Spiritual Power within his body, stepped forward decisively, and drew out the flying sword he had obtained from Qingyun Sect!

The sword light flashed from its sheath, instantly igniting with fire!

The power of Spirit Fire!

"Boy, you’re not lacking in skill, and you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve!"

Kong Wu snorted coldly; although Spirit Fire posed the greatest threat to him.

It could also illuminate the cave and enable him to see Lu Chen’s position clearly!

He drew in his silver hook and reached out with his bare hand towards the light from Lu Chen’s fire!

"Catching Fire Hand!"

If Lu Chen were a Sword Cultivator, Kong Wu would have been wary.

But his magic artifact spear was now in his own hands!

The Catching Fire Palm seemed to reach effortlessly through flames, and the Spirit Fire couldn’t harm him. The sword was likely not Lu Chen’s original magic artifact, and he was not a Sword Cultivator.

Kong Wu could already see the scene of his victory.

Although wounded, it wasn’t a problem at all!

But unexpectedly.

Lu Chen might not know the Immortal Law Sword techniques.

But he could execute martial swordsmanship!

In a crucial moment, with the power of Spirit Fire, he unleashed a sword technique from the Lu Family!

White Rainbow Piercing the Sun!

Moving nimbly, Lu Chen aimed a sword thrust directly at the wound left from the spear!

Lu Chen had one goal, if there was a wound, then he would make it as large as possible!

This thrust was incredibly fast.

His original intention wasn’t to harm with the Spirit Fire but with the sword!

No matter how humble Qingyun Sect was, it was still the second-rate sect, and this sword...

Just needed to pierce the wound!

Empowered by the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, one could say that Lu Chen’s sword would not miss its mark!

Aimed directly at the wound, even though the force of the Spirit Fire attached to it had been snatched away by Kong Wu, the brilliant sword light, carrying an icy chill, pierced with a ’pfft’ sound into the wound!
