I Can Merge Techniques

Once, twice...

When the woman used Instant Teleportation for the fourth time, Chu Fan stopped his pursuit.

His gaze was as sharp as an eagle’s, locked firmly onto two locations.

Every time she moved, a faint fluctuation of Primordial Qi would ripple from those two spots on the ground, where a small Array could be vaguely seen flashing out of existence.

’Fixed-point teleportation!’

No matter where she was, she could instantly teleport back to one of these two locations!

However, this teleportation wasn’t endless.

After each use, she had to wait for several dozen breaths before she could use it again.

Chu Fan’s mind raced. He cleaved apart a grasping Ghost Hand with his saber, dodged the giant sword in the air, and moved to the side of one of the Arrays.

He stood his ground firmly.

Then, the crimson light of his Long Saber flared once more, shredding all the Ghost Hands grasping at him from all sides!

While the black-robed woman watched in shock and suspicion, he sheathed his Long Saber.

In its place appeared a simple, heavy bow—the Sunset Bow!

"You want to use arrows?"

The black-robed woman scoffed. "Inside my Mirror Flower Water Moon, how much of your strength do you even have left? You think you can hurt me with an arrow?"

She just assumed Chu Fan had run out of tricks.

But Chu Fan paid her no mind. He held the bow in his left hand and drew a jet-black Black Kite Arrow from the Quiver on his back with his right.

He drew the bow and nocked the arrow, his movements as smooth as flowing water.

Although his Primordial Qi was suppressed and his Divine Sense was restricted, the Traits from his Martial Arts Limit Breaking and his Vajra Undying Body were not diminished in the slightest!

His earlier charge, cleaving through the Ghost Hands, had already proven this!

Chu Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly, then snapped open. A sharp glint burst from his pupils as he locked onto the black-robed woman, who stood hundreds of zhang away at the other teleportation point.

BZZZT!

The bowstring trembled, letting out a low Dragon’s Roar.

The Black Kite Arrow transformed into a streak of black lightning, tearing through the air as it shot forward!

Seeing that the arrow, though fast, was far less powerful than his previous Sword Technique, the black-robed woman’s expression grew even more disdainful.

As a Warlock, her Soul Power was far greater than that of a Martial Artist of the same Realm, and her Energy Perception was extremely keen.

’How could an arrow like this possibly hurt me?’

She contemptuously reached out a delicate, jade-like hand, channeling her Primordial Qi to precisely snatch the arrow from the air.

However, the very instant her fingertips touched the arrow’s shaft!

The two Traits, "Breaking Gang" and "Soul Split," erupted one after the other!

An indescribably terrifying power instantly tore her soul apart!

"AH—!"

A bloodcurdling scream, one that didn’t sound human, echoed throughout the entire space!

The black-robed woman convulsed as if struck by lightning, clutching her head with both hands as she howled endlessly in agony.

The agony of having one’s soul forcibly torn asunder was ten million times more vicious than any physical injury, a pain that pierced straight to the bone marrow!

’Now is the time!’

A cold glint flashed in Chu Fan’s eyes. Without a moment’s pause, he had already nocked a second Black Kite Arrow to the bowstring.

The bowstring vibrated again, and the arrow shot forth!

The black-robed woman hadn’t yet recovered from the soul-splitting pain when she saw a second streak of black light speeding toward her, intent on taking her life.

This time, her eyes were filled with unprecedented terror. She no longer dared to catch it with her bare hands.

Forcing herself to endure the intense pain, she clumsily activated her Body Technique and dodged wretchedly to the side.

Though her soul was grievously wounded, she still possessed the speed of a Third Heaven Acupoint Realm expert and easily evaded the arrow’s trajectory.

However, a scene that made her soul flee in terror suddenly unfolded!

The Black Kite Arrow, which should have missed, carved a wicked arc through the air. As if it had a mind of its own, it instantly changed direction, accelerated, and viciously pierced her shoulder blade!

PFFT!

Blood splattered!

A bone-deep injury was now added to her spiritual torment!

"AAAAAH!"

The black-robed woman shrieked and fell to the ground again, her body curling into a ball as she writhed ceaselessly.

[Pursuit: Upon leaving the string, the arrow generates its own senses, allowing it to slightly adjust its trajectory. Even if the enemy moves or blocks, it is difficult to completely evade...]

[Annihilation: Condenses the intent of "Annihilation" into a single arrow. Once fired, it locks onto the enemy’s aura. Causality is fixed. Unless blocked by the absolute power of someone whose Realm is far superior, it is impossible to evade...]

With the overlapping Limit Breaking Traits of the Hundred-step Piercing Willow Arrow Skill and the Moon Eclipse Arrow, this shot was unpredictable even to gods and ghosts!

Chu Fan’s eyes were icy. With a quick shift of his feet, he dodged several Ghost Hands that lunged madly at him, drew his bow again, and fired a volley of arrows in rapid succession!

Just then, a translucent, illusory Black Tower suddenly materialized around the writhing woman, protecting her completely.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

The arrows struck the Black Tower, sending sparks flying as they were all deflected.

Despite the "Breaking Gang" Trait, Chu Fan’s Primordial Qi was too heavily suppressed. Ultimately, he couldn’t break through this high-grade Defensive Magical Treasure.

Seeing his attack fail, Chu Fan immediately understood that archery alone would no longer be effective.

He unhesitatingly put away his Sunset Bow, drew his Long Saber again, and shot forward, charging the black-robed woman while her teleportation was still on cooldown!

"Damn you!"

Knowing her life was in grave danger, the black-robed woman forced herself to endure the pain in her soul and scrambled up from the ground into a sitting position.

Instead of fleeing, she pressed her palms together and began to chant an obscure incantation.

"Netherworld Sword Prison!"

In an instant, within a ten-zhang radius around her, thousands of long swords made of dark green Primordial Qi materialized out of thin air.

This was her ultimate area-of-effect Killing Move. As long as her Primordial Qi did not run out, the rain of swords would be endless!

The tips of all the long swords turned in unison to aim at the charging Chu Fan.

"Die!"

The black-robed woman shrieked, and the thousands of dark green long swords instantly transformed into a world-destroying Sword Tide that surged toward Chu Fan!

She had originally come to recruit Chu Fan.

But now, she wanted nothing more than to grind the brat who had torn her soul to dust!

SHING SHING SHING SHING!

The dark green blades reached him in an instant, rushing straight for his face!

SWOOSH!

Chu Fan raised his Long Saber, its gleaming light shredding the first wave of blades that reached him.

But as the sword blades shattered, his Long Saber also broke!

The Long Saber that the Celestial Workshop had forged for him was still being tempered, as the Star Ink Iron he had "extorted" from the Fiery Sun Gang had been added to it later.

The saber in his hand now was merely ordinary iron. How could it possibly withstand such a terrifying impact!

"Let’s see you survive this!"

Seeing Chu Fan’s Long Saber shatter, a cruel smile touched the corners of the black-robed woman’s mouth.
