King of Hundred Victories Saber

The surface of the river exploded, and a giant iron chain net dozens of feet long burst out from the water. Inside the net were Wokou Ninjas dressed in black, their chained sickles glowing with a ghostly blue poison, marking them as the elite of the Iga School from Japan.

Shi Feiyang’s pupils contracted sharply, his heart surging with murderous intent: ”The Japanese dare to lay a hand on the Central Plains! Today I will ensure none of you return!”

He rose up tall, performing the ”Deep Concealment of Body and Name” mysterious lightweight technique. His toes lightly tapped the wave tips, his figure flashed out like a ghost.

The Celestial Frost Blade unsheathed, the dragon’s chant resounded through the night sky.

Shi Feiyang slashed through the air, casting a half-moon of silver. Where the saber energy passed, the air emitted a piercing tearing sound. The masts of three warships broke with a sound, and the shattered wood splintered into powder by the saber energy.

The Wokou leader sneered and flicked poison darts, Shi Feiyang smirked: ”Tricks of little consequence!” The Bright Jade Technique operated at full strength, the ice-blue True Qi exploded suddenly, freezing the poison darts inch by inch in the saber energy, shattering into thousands of ice crystals as they hit the ground.

Xiao Lingling of the ”Mandarin Duck Saber” saw the situation and let out a charming shout. The Mandarin Duck Saber unsheathed, and the saber light interwove with the moonlight.

She executed the exquisite move of ”Seven Fiend Saber’s Mandarin Ducks Weave to Fly,” her dual blades like spiritual snakes striking, severing the approaching venomous snakes into segments, the blood-stained spray lapping against the ship’s side, glinting with eerie purple in the night.

The iron chain net gradually closed in, Shi Feiyang took a deep breath, circulating the Bright Jade Technique to the ”Supreme Forgetting Emotions Ice Soul Cold Prison” realm.

His whole body’s True Qi transformed into an ice-blue vortex, instantly freezing the water into ice as it passed.

”Hundred Victories Saber Technique - Heaven’s Edge!” At the moment the Celestial Frost Blade struck out, a ten-foot-high wave surged on the river, the ice-blue saber energy sweeping across like a bolt of lightning.

The iron chain net twisted and deformed within the saber energy, the splattering sparks illuminating Qu San Geng’s terrified face across the shore.

Though the Wokou showed fear on their faces, they still gritted their teeth and charged with sickles. Shi Feiyang’s eyes flashed like lightning, his voice resonated high: ”Though the world is vast, how can it permit foreign disgrace! Those who violate our Central Plains, no matter the difficulties, must be exterminated!” Saber lights flashed fiercely, the cries of battle, the clash of weapons, and the hissing of snake swarms intertwined into a tragic war song, the waters of the Chishui River gradually dyed a deep red with blood.

The dusk closed in, the mist rising over the Chishui River carried a stench of corruption.

The three thousand disciples of the Heroic Sakura Association arrayed on the ship, their dark uniforms fluttering in the night wind like black battle flags. Suddenly, from the opposite shore came a ghostly flute sound, as the ”Snake King” Qu San Geng held the cyan bamboo flute crosswise, unleashing thousands of venomous snakes breaking from the water, turning the river surface into a turbulent black tide.

Liao Pei of ”Long Arm Fist” charged headfirst, his fists sweeping like Mount Tai descending. ”Long Arm Cleaves the Mountain!” At the shadows cast by his fists, the snake swarm seemed to be chopped by an enormous axe, flesh and blood flying. Yet the fallen snakes were pushed and jostled by the following snake swarm, crashing into the ferry, their stinking mucus leaving long trails on the ship’s side.

Liao Pei shouted violently, his arms spanning over a yard, lightly but swiftly breaking three giant pythons with bowl-thick bodies at the waist, snake blood splattering on his muscled arms, congealing into ice crystals.

Lie Quan’s ”Heaven and Earth Saber” trembled in its scabbard, the cold glint unsheathed. The saber danced in the positions of the eight trigrams, ”Qian Trigram: Dragon Battle in the Wild!” Where the blade passed, the snake swarm was ground into meat paste, but the Japanese Ninja’s chained sickles already broke through the air.

Lie Quan spun and swung his saber, the flash of the saber and the chained sickle clashed, sparks flew.

He was secretly startled: This Japanese saber had a soft yet forceful power, very different from Central Plains saber techniques! Immediately, his saber stance changed, performing ”Kun Trigram: Thick Virtue Carrying Objects,” the back of the saber knocking the sickle’s hook, using force to throw the enemy into the snake swarm.

”Iron Palm” Wu Zhong’s palms flew, the shadows of his palms like layered peaks. His powerful palm force struck out like mountains collapsing and seas overturning, the snake swarm ahead shattered internally before approaching, black blood spurted three feet high.

Suddenly feeling a strong wind attacking from above, he looked up to see three Ninjas hanging upside down on the iron chain net, toxic short blades stabbing directly toward his face.

Wu Zhong advanced instead of retreating, his palms transforming into claws, performing ”Dragon Claw Hand” to grip the enemy’s wrists, borrowing strength to lift off, smashing the three men’s heads together, brain matter mixed with snake blood splattered on the deck.

”Divine Archer” Miao Menlong drew his bowstring into a full moon, the arrowheads frosting over. Three arrows tore through the air, carving eerie arcs in the air like Star-Chasing Moon-Running Arrows, precisely piercing the Wokou throats.

Yet the snake swarm gathered and more gathered, forming a living ladder climbing up the ship’s side. Miao Menlong hastily drew the soft whip from his waist, executing ”Spiritual Snake Exits the Cave,” the whip coiling around the Snake King Qu San Geng’s wrist, yet Qu San Geng grinned hideously, the flute’s tune abruptly changed, the river surface exploded open, countless poisonous snakes drilled out from beneath the ship, biting through the ship boards.

”Plum Blossom Darts” Shan Zhi flicked his dart pouch, thirty-six plum blossom darts turned into cold stars. The darts moved with plum blossom steps, aiming at critical points and joints of the enemy.

The Wokou leader screeched, swinging out a chain hammer, Shan Zhi sidestepped to avoid it, his toes tapped the ground to leap up the mast, chain darts shot out like the Plum Blossom Triolet, shattering the iron rings on the chain hammer completely. But the snake swarm below had already climbed the mast, their sharp teeth gnawing at the wood with a sound that would set one’s teeth on edge.

”Flying Eagle Detective” Xie Wen’s eagle on his shoulder suddenly spread its wings, its sharp claws aimed straight for the Wokou’s face.

Xie Wen seized the opportunity to throw a rope, winding around the enemy’s ankle and giving a fierce pull.

The Wokou couldn’t stop themselves in time, being hoisted and slammed toward the reef, their brains bursting.

Yet the Snake King’s flute sound changed again, the river surface raised dozens of corpses entwined with iron chains, they were actually living dead snakes refined from humans!

Xie Wen’s pupils contracted sharply, he drew the soft sword from his waist, performing the ”Eagle Soars the Skies” swordsmanship, the sword light like electricity, slicing off the heads of the corpse snakes.

Little Scholar Shi Xiong firmly gripped the White Rainbow Treasure Sword, protecting Guo Xiangyu by his side.

Seeing a giant python open its mouth to bite, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, wildly thrusting his sword.

As the sword edge pierced the snake’s belly, warm snake blood splattered all over his face. He wiped his face, suddenly recalling the ”Eighteen Flips of Yanqing” that the young master taught him, he immediately rolled on the ground, his short sword lifting and slicing open another snake’s belly, its innards spilling all over the ground.
