Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement
Chapter 455 - 232: Shot Dead, Perception!
However, Jiang Feng remained vigilant against every Divine Sect disciple. If he could kill from a distance, he would not approach easily, especially with someone like the Saintess.
Through spiritual sense probing, he saw the Saintess’s Supreme Sword Domain collapse, resulting in backlash. Kneeling on one knee on the ground, Jiang Feng felt a sense of compassion and hastily shot arrow after arrow at her.
"Pfft!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Three arrow shadows all penetrated the Saintess’s body.
The Saintess was blown backward on the spot.
She had red armor protection on her body.
It wasn’t easy to die from that, but the arrow shadows shot from the Dragon Bone Bow weren’t something that ordinary armor could withstand. Already suffering from the backlash and severe vitality injuries, the impact of these three arrow shadows made things worse for her.
Concealed in the space between heaven and earth, the White Jade Treasure Sword waiting for Jiang Feng to approach almost got exposed to Jiang Feng’s spiritual sense.
The Saintess lay prone on the ground.
Her white dress was already stained red with blood, blending with the red armor into one piece.
"Still not dead?"
Jiang Feng was greatly surprised.
Each of his arrows was shot with all his might, three consecutive arrows struck the Saintess, but she still wasn’t dead. Though he then remembered he failed to kill her over Dragon Capital last time.
This time, the opponent was prepared, making it not so easy to take her down.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
So, three arrows didn’t suffice; Jiang Feng released another three arrows, relentlessly shooting arrow shadows from the Dragon Bone Bow, all aimed at the Saintess’s vital points.
The Saintess looked desperate.
Jiang Feng was too cunning, never daring to come close to her.
If this continued, she would be shot to death by Jiang Feng, and the White Jade Treasure Sword hidden in the space around them would lose its effect.
Watching as over a dozen arrow shadows shot toward her head-on,
she finally couldn’t bear it and activated the White Jade Treasure Sword, transforming it into a transparent phantom, shooting toward Jiang Feng’s vital points.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Feng instantly sensed it.
At this moment, the Saintess forcibly activated the White Jade Treasure Sword to attack him from a distance, exposing herself to his spiritual sense.
This kind of long-distance stealth kill not only required strong spiritual power support but also demanded mastery of the Sword Control Technique, at least to the level of Great Success.
If Jiang Feng had actively approached the Saintess, appearing in the space where the White Jade Treasure Sword was concealed, he might have been caught off guard and killed.
Now the Saintess forcibly initiated it.
Moreover, the distance had been extended.
Thus, trying to deceive Jiang Feng’s spiritual sense was simply impossible.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
He did not hesitate.
He shot three arrows at the phantom without pause.
Speaking of innate magical treasures, they can automatically lock onto dangerous auras without even seeing the arrow shadows shot out; the White Jade Treasure Sword couldn’t break through the arrow shadows, and Jiang Feng successfully intercepted it within a hundred meters away.
The sword’s blade radiance was shattered by the arrow shadow.
The long sword lodged into the ground.
It seemed to have lost its connection with the Saintess, unable to be summoned back so easily.
"Pfft!"
...
Meanwhile, the dozens of arrow shadows Jiang Feng had shot earlier all struck the Saintess; the Saintess, lying on the ground in blood-soaked armor, couldn’t fend off the Dragon Bone Bow’s damage.
The armor shattered.
Her flesh was pierced through by sword shadows.
Among them, three arrows shot toward her head; he wouldn’t stop until he killed her.
From afar, the Saintess’s figure looked pinned to the ground.
Lying motionless like a bloodied figure.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Jiang Feng wasn’t assured, so he fired another dozen arrows at the corpse.
"Zing!"
Suddenly, a red light flew off from the Saintess’s neck.
Transforming into a red streak, it flew toward the sky.
"Not good!"
Jiang Feng’s expression changed dramatically.
Swiftly he shot three arrows in succession at the red streak.
Unfortunately, the red streak vanished in the blink of an eye. Its speed was far beyond his imagination; the arrow shadows he shot didn’t catch up, ultimately dissipating in the air.
"Huff!"
Jiang Feng moved and retrieved the White Jade Treasure Sword, approaching the Saintess.
The Saintess was in terrible shape.
Armor shattered, her body’s vital points pierced by arrow shadows, this body couldn’t survive. But what was that red light just now?
Jiang Feng crouched down to examine.
He found a red string around the Saintess’s neck.
To be precise, a string stained with blood, which must have originally had something hanging on it?
Jiang Feng pondered deeply.
Recollecting all encounters with the Saintess during this time, trying to figure out what was on the necklace around her neck?
"It seemed to be a Jade Pendant?"
"Could it be a magical artifact?"
"Is she really dead or not?"
Jiang Feng felt anxious.
Looking at the White Jade Treasure Sword in his hand, Jiang Feng had an idea. He forcefully infused the sword with spiritual power, trying to fully control it.
The attempt was thwarted by a force.
It was the power of the Saintess’s refinement of the White Jade Treasure Sword.
"Damn!"
"This woman has such a tough life!"
Jiang Feng cursed.
The reaction of the White Jade Treasure Sword indicated the Saintess wasn’t completely dead. The fleeting red light must have carried the Saintess’s soul away.
Otherwise, even if he couldn’t easily claim the White Jade Treasure Sword as his, refining it into his magical artifact, Jiang Feng could at least simply manipulate the White Jade Treasure Sword to obey his commands, flying around by his side.
Unexpectedly, the Saintess’s spiritual power lingered.
To make the White Jade Treasure Sword his magical artifact, Jiang Feng had to first forcibly erase the Saintess’s spiritual power, and forcefully taking over another’s magical artifact was risky; even with a significantly higher cultivation, it was a very perilous act requiring time to erode.
Thinking it over, Jiang Feng threw the White Jade Treasure Sword on the ground, retreating backward before ceaselessly firing a dozen arrows at it with the Dragon Bone Bow.
Since he couldn’t refine the sword,
carrying it around would expose his position, so Jiang Feng could only destroy it forcibly, hoping to inflict backlash on the Saintess’s soul.
