Chapter 695 - 615: The Celestial Demon Envoy’s Plan
Qin An lightly pressed, all the force was gathered, converging into a majestic power.
When this punch was fiercely struck, in addition to the arrow’s power already weakened to a certain extent, both sides’ residual forces exploded with a roar.
Qin An’s fist, carrying the strength of the crowd, actually equaled the arrow.
Both sides, like two bulls, continued to wrestle on the battlefield, deadlocked.
A trickle of cold sweat appeared on Qin An’s forehead, as he felt the Qi Blood Power inside him being frantically drawn out, converging on his fist and pouring out.
The momentum on his side was slowly weakening.
In contrast, the arrow began to show cracks.
The arrow, originally as straight as a white poplar, began to bend as cracks appeared.
Qin An shouted, "Break for me!"
As cracks gradually appeared on the arrow, constantly attacked by Qin An’s force, the cracks rapidly spread.
"Crack—"
Only a sound like an eggshell breaking was heard, and the arrow shattered into fragments on the ground.
A terrifying force was unleashed, as if tearing a huge gash in the sky.
Everyone present, whether it was Bai Lingfeng and other Forbidden Land Envoys, or human cultivators and Hei Feng and other Defenders, all sat on the ground, blood oozing from their mouths, clearly not feeling well.
But every face was brimming with smiles, as if relieved, utterly relaxed.
They had won.
Even if this arrow seemed to be able to destroy heaven and earth, the victors of this battle were ultimately them.
Qin An also exhaled a long breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his arm, looking at the huge crack in the sky with lingering fear.
A narrow escape!
If there had been a single misstep, all that awaited him would have been endless darkness and death.
Fortunately, in the final moment, he emerged victorious.
This crisis was something he had never experienced before, and it gave him a new understanding of these traitors.
The power they possessed was indeed enough to overturn everything.
Yet just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a sudden change occurred again.
Qin An abruptly raised his head, scanning the void ahead, his gaze heavy as ice.
Everyone also felt a thread of aura spreading at this place, all raising their heads, following Qin An’s gaze.
At the end of the void, a phantom slowly emerged.
The Celestial Demon Envoy, cloaked in black robes, had his hands behind his back, staring intently at Qin An with a gaze as complex and cold as ice.
"Good, very good. After paying such a great price, and so many people dying, including the supreme strike I gathered at great cost, you still managed to evade it. You truly deserve to be called the Savior, sir."
The moment these words were spoken, everyone forced themselves to stand up, warily looking at the Celestial Demon Envoy.
Qin An, however, seemed to hear nothing, suddenly asked, "Are you the Celestial Demon Envoy? It seems you cannot come here personally."
The Celestial Demon Envoy slightly nodded, acknowledging Qin An’s perspective, curiously asking, "How did you know that I cannot reach this place?"
Qin An said calmly, "If your strength could reach here, you wouldn’t have so much nonsense to say. You should have struck directly to kill me. But you didn’t, proving you currently don’t have the power to kill me, or rather, cannot forcefully descend through the world’s barrier to kill me."
The Celestial Demon Envoy laughed heartily, "Smart, that’s correct, but don’t get too complacent. Your death date is near, and before you leave the Celestial Cloud Path, you will die by my hand."
Qin An sneered, "Alright, I would be most willing to die by your hand, let’s see how you will descend."
Even though this Celestial Demon Envoy was just a phantom, the pressure it placed on Qin An was no less than the arrow just now.
If he truly could descend here, none of the people in this place could resist.
However, if he doesn’t come, everything is mere talk.
"Since you are so arrogant, let you be arrogant for a few more days. When I actually descend, I hope you will still have such a hard mouth, otherwise, I would find it quite meaningless."
As these words were spoken, the Celestial Demon Envoy’s voice gradually disappeared.
Soon, there was no phantom of the Celestial Demon Envoy in this world, and that powerful pressure suddenly dissipated.
Originally holding their breath, everyone sat down again, utterly at ease.
Bai Lingfeng and others exchanged glances, never having experienced such a thrilling scene.
The Forbidden Land Envoys are extremely esteemed within the Celestial Cloud Path, but they had never encountered such a turn of events like today.
Especially Bai Lingfeng, his gaze towards Qin An contained a hint of complexity.
Originally, he thought Qin An was merely someone he recruited on a whim into the position of Forbidden Land Envoy.
But now it seemed, the surprises Qin An brought him were far beyond that.
Especially today’s battle, Qin An demonstrated not only strength but also an exceedingly calm demeanor and high strategy.
For example, using the Black Demon Rebirth Technique to weaken the arrow was something no one could think of.
The human cultivators of the Forbidden Land looked at Qin An with eyes filled with awe.
They originally thought Qin An was just a supporting role, but now they realized, he was the undisputed lead.
The attitude of Hei Feng and others was more direct, their gaze towards Qin An full of reverence and blind trust.
They believed in the prophecy, and even more in the Savior.
Today’s battle proved that their trust was entirely justified.
Under the sweeping gaze of many, Qin An’s expression remained calm as water, waving his hand, "Everyone, clean up the battlefield, I need a rest."
Today’s battle was also a great expenditure for Qin An.
Especially with several close encounters, his mindset had undergone some changes.
