Chapter 492: Illusion Spirit
ROAR!
The terrifying Demon Beast slowly emerged from the passageway. Its roar was like thunder, and its eyes, glinting with lightning, were filled with destruction!
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard!
Ranked fourth on the Prisoner Fighter roster, a Demon King Level beast. It was a terrifying Demon Beast that the Dueling Arena had spent great effort to raise, and it had slaughtered a total of eighty-one experts of the Yin Yang Realm!
Every opponent it faced in the arena was blasted to pieces, cementing its title as "The Killer." It was a creature that no Prisoner Fighter ever wanted to face.
Only the top three on the Prisoner Fighter roster, those few Celestial Prides, dared to contend with it!
The moment the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard appeared, everyone in the crowd cried out in alarm!
Its form had not been seen in the Prisoner Arena for a very long time.
But now, to deal with Ye Wushuang, the black-robed elder had released it to fight him. He clearly intended to kill Ye Wushuang!
"The Zong Family is so shameless!" Zhuang Hao’s expression darkened. He had long known the black-robed elder would interfere, but he never expected him to release the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard. They had no intention of letting Ye Wushuang live.
"They’re being too outrageous, breaking the rules so openly! Are they just going to ignore all these spectators?"
Lan Xinyu’s pretty face showed both worry and fury!
"This is the Zong Family’s territory. They can do whatever they want," Zhuang Hao said. "Besides, the nobles here don’t care about the process, only the outcome. They don’t give a damn who lives or dies. All they want is to watch the slaughter below."
Zhuang Hao knew this place all too well. He was worried for Ye Wushuang.
As for Dongfang Youdi, he had fallen silent. He watched Ye Wushuang below, and it was rare to see him so calm.
On the other side, a vicious look flashed across Zong Min’s face. ’Ye Wushuang might have been able to defeat Zong Ming, but there’s no way he can beat the terrifying Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard!’
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
Now unleashed, the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s suppressed ferocity burst forth, and it charged straight for Ye Wushuang!
The black-robed elder sneered and retreated to the side.
’I never thought the black-robed elder would be this shameless!’ Ye Wushuang stood quietly.
Seeing the charging Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, his body flickered, and in an instant, he leaped into the air!
BOOM!
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard was also incredibly fast. Like a bolt of lightning, it locked onto Ye Wushuang, leaped into the air, and swiped at him with its claw.
The claw, crackling with lightning, was like several blades of lightning slashing toward Ye Wushuang’s head.
Ye Wushuang threw a punch. The Fist Seal was as massive as a mountain as it met the claw head-on!
BOOM!
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s claw paused for a moment, but its other claw took the opportunity to strike from the side. Lightning crackled, HISSING as it came at him like a silver hook.
Ye Wushuang’s figure instantly flashed back dozens of meters.
BOOM!
The silver hook-like claw tore through the air, leaving a rift in the void that did not heal for a long time. The sight struck fear into the hearts of all who watched.
"The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard truly lives up to its name as a killer!"
Watching the terrifying Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, the spectators marveled. That Power of thunder and lightning was violent and destructive, enough to annihilate anything.
ROAR!
Seeing that its first strike had failed to kill Ye Wushuang, the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard roared endlessly. The lightning in its ferocious eyes intensified, and as its claw shattered the void, it turned and attacked Ye Wushuang again.
The moment Ye Wushuang steadied himself, it pounced.
Its agility and speed terrified some of the spectating Prisoner Fighters. They all knew that if they faced such a horrifying monster, they would surely be dead within ten moves!
Heavenly Concealing Hand!
Ye Wushuang’s gaze was steady. He reached out one hand and slammed it down. A massive, blood-red hand descended rapidly, like a crimson mountain crashing down.
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard charged up violently, suddenly opened its mouth, and spat out a pillar of lightning that shot forward, piercing straight through the descending blood-red hand.
BOOM!
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard leaped sideways, shattering the blood-red hand with one claw. It then sped toward Ye Wushuang, spitting out dense pillars of lightning that shot toward him.
’You’re just a beast. Do you really think you can defy the heavens?’
Ye Wushuang’s eyes turned cold. An Ancient Sword appeared in his hand, and a terrifying Sword Intent began to spread from it.
The crowd’s eyes narrowed, focusing on the sword in Ye Wushuang’s hand—the unsheathed sword!
He was going to draw his sword again. Everyone stared intently, wanting to see just how he would strike this time.
ROAR! ROAR!
Sensing the terrifying Sword Intent, the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard felt intensely threatened.
With a furious roar, its body began to transform, turning into a silver flash of lightning. It shot among the pillars of thunderbolts filling the sky and vanished from sight.
"What is...?"
Seeing the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard suddenly vanish, the crowd’s eyes widened. "That’s its Illusion Spirit Power! It’s the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard’s ultimate killing technique!"
The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard not only controlled the Power of thunder and lightning, but what was even more terrifying was its ability to transform into lightning and merge with its attacks. This made it impossible for its opponents to see where it was!
By the time they found out, a pillar of lightning would have already pierced through their body!
"He’s in danger!" Zhuang Hao stared at the countless pillars of lightning crisscrossing below. The Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard had merged with them, making it impossible to distinguish.
Ye Wushuang could only defend himself. Defending was his only chance of survival!
Everyone watched intently. They truly wanted to see Ye Wushuang draw that stunning sword.
However, now that the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard had vanished, even if he did draw his sword, he would have no target!
Ye Wushuang truly had no choice but to defend if he wanted to escape death!
Hmph!
Off to the side, the black-robed elder sneered. With its Illusion Spirit Power, even a Yang Destruction Level expert like himself might not be able to handle the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, let alone a mere Spiritual Spring cultivator!
The sky full of lightning pillars rushed toward Ye Wushuang, and the threat of death closed in on him.
However, at that very moment, a smile blossomed on Ye Wushuang’s lips—a smile of disdain and ridicule!
This smile registered in the eyes of the crowd, leaving everyone baffled. ’How can Ye Wushuang still be smiling at a time like this?’
Die!
Ye Wushuang took a step forward, his handsome face utterly composed. He didn’t defend. Instead, he charged straight ahead.
And in that same instant, the Ancient Sword was drawn!
CLANG!
The familiar ring of a sword resounded as a beam of Sword Light erupted in an instant. It was so brilliant and dazzling that the crowd was once again temporarily blinded.
They couldn’t see it clearly. Even this time, they still couldn’t see him draw the sword. Even though they were concentrating with all their might, hoping to catch a glimpse, they were all disappointed. The sword was just too fast!
After a moment, the crowd’s vision returned.
They eagerly looked back at the Prisoner Arena. The sky full of lightning pillars was gone, leaving only a single figure standing in the void. A gentle breeze ruffled his hair, his purple robes fluttered, and his youthful face seemed almost unreal.
BOOM!
A massive tremor shook the ground. Below Ye Wushuang, a terrifying figure hit the floor, and in that same instant, its body split in two. It had still been slain by a single sword strike!
"How is that possible? H-How did he find the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard?"
Staring at the dead Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard, the hearts of the crowd trembled violently.
They knew that the previous sword strike had a target. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have annihilated the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard so perfectly!
But they couldn’t figure it out. With its Illusion Spirit Power, the Illusion Spirit Thunder Leopard was hidden amongst the lightning where no one could spot it. How on earth did Ye Wushuang distinguish its form?
