Sword Among Us - Chapter 1208
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At that moment, Happy’s strength had long since surpassed those at the peak of Myth Realm. In fact, even a normal person in the dao of heaven could not hope to win against him. Hence, even if the Forbidden Daiya Technique could connect nine people’s strengths and gather them on one person so that that person could temporarily possess the strength of someone in the dao of heaven, that was not important to Happy. He was someone who could truly stand against those in the dao of heaven, and the Forbidden Daiya Technique no longer had absolute advantage over him.
As he faced the two attacks that came charging violently at him, Happy remained calm.
At that moment the attacks were about to touch him, he activated Dragon Swings Its Tail.
Since the attacks were comparable to the full-powered strike from someone in the dao of heaven, the momentum of the attack was very astonishing. Sand flew in the desert, and the entire world looked as if it had started moving because of the tornadoes. No one could see what was in front clearly.
When two powerful attacks with the power of those in the dao of heaven was released, the weather changed, and even the Wild Wolves temporarily lost sight of what was in front of them. They only saw that Happy was instantly swallowed up by two black tornadoes.
However, as they waited for Happy’s pained scream and longed to see him be tossed away, an afterimage appeared in front of a group at lightning speed.
Slap!
“No!”
“Careful!”
The afterimage appeared at the blindspot of the person leading that Forbidden Daiya Technique, but this did not prevent the eight people behind him from seeing him. They instantly shouted warnings at their leader nonstop.
At the same time, the eight Wild Wolves pushed forward unanimously and pushed their qi into the first person’s body.
Boom!
Almost at the instant their power was channeled into his body, the leader was struck violently by the shadow of a leg that came whipping at him in the air.
A shocking scene appeared.
In the past, even if they endured Dongfang Bubai’s peerlessly powerful slash, the group only took one small step backwards, but at the instant the group was kicked by Happy’s Dragon Swings Its Tail, the group staggered half a step back. Then, the group shuddered at the same time, and an incredibly violent power suddenly charged into their bodies from under their feet.
Boom!
The sand exploded!
Before the group managed to stand still and get through the remaining force in Happy’s attack, the sudden hidden force charged ruthlessly at their bodies, and they trembled. Their matrix was broken, and the group was sent flying several feet away at the same time.
They could not control themselves and could not regain their balance. With shocked expressions, they were sent flying several feet away. Then, they took a few staggering steps backward before they managed to stop.
In the distance, Immortal saw the group suffering through the same degree of internal damage at the same time after they took one attack from Happy, and her expression changed drastically.
Impossible!
Even Dongfang Bubai could not create such great damage when he had Tiger Soul and had his strength pushed until he became the strongest in the world, because the Forbidden Daiya Technique had whittled it down.
Right now, at Inaction Realm, Happy’s damage could already rival Dongfang Bubai’s and even surpass his damage?!
She could not accept this no matter what!
Besides, she knew very clearly that Happy had countered the attack from the nine people who used the Forbidden Daiya Technique. So, if she looked at Happy’s attack based purely on its damage, it could not compare to Dongfang Bubai’s damage at all.
That was, unless, he delivered a second attack.
At the instant he unleashed Dragon Swings Its Tail, Happy also attacked to ambush the nine people. Before they could organize their next Forbidden Daiya Technique, he launched the preemptive strike and attacked all the nine people together!
But what sort of martial art could he have used that allowed him to silently wound and force nine people to retreat? The Wild Wolves had not even noticed it.
She might be surprised, but that was all.
The shock brought by Happy’s offense did not cause Immortal and her group to stop attacking.
Bang! Bang!
Since damage was shared among all members in the matrix, when the Forbidden Daiya Technique was destroyed, two people were instantly rendered useless.
When they saw how pathetic these two people looked as they staggered and retreated while their mouths were filled with blood, all those with a little expression knew that these two could not help the others form the Forbidden Daiya Technique instantly. Their qi realms had even been reduced because of the attack.
However, the other group had already reacted to the situation.
“How conceited!”
“Don’t fight against him! Flame Wolf has already caught up!”
The Wild Wolves on Immortal’s side had just charged at Happy when she suddenly cried out a warning.
Just as she said, they felt a bone-chilling cold and ruthless presence swept through the sand to charge toward them.
‘What?!’
The group turned their heads around swiftly.
And they were just in time to see Flame Wolf’s eyes, which had lost all clarity and had turned murky as well as cruel.
Tiger Soul had been drinking blood for a long time, so it became even more savage and brutal. The murderous and ruthless saber will became clearer and stronger, and the entire saber shone with a blood red light. It was as if it was about to leave the saber to devour someone.
‘No!’
The group had their hearts tremble.
If they used the Forbidden Daiya Technique to fight against Happy, they were confident that they could last until the people from Flame Town came over to provide reinforcements for them. But Flame Wolf could not differentiate between enemies and friends at the moment. With him throwing a wrench into things, the Wild Wolves were forced into a very passive situation.
“Send the signal! We have to gather together with the people from Flame Town first! Hurry!” Peach Blossom and Bloody Hell Saber had died, and Immortal became the only rightful commander in the group.
With that one command, the nine people in the Forbidden Daiya Technique continued fighting against Happy while the rest brought out signal flares from their Universe Bags in a flurry.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Signal flares rushed to the sky of desert one after another, bringing with them shrill and piercing sounds. They released dazzling and beautiful fireworks in the sky.
The rising and falling sounds of the signal flares and the smoke from the flares were chaotic and urgent, showing just how critical the group’s situation currently was.
At Flame Town, Chief Wolf and his group had already surrounded Silver Wolf and his party.
Even though seven people had already fallen, Silver Wolf and his party were covered in injuries, and they were gasping for breath. They were in a bad situation.
“Stop wasting time. Anyway, we won’t be able to get any answers from them. Kill them! We have to focus on our main task.”
“I’ll do it!”
Just when Chief Wolf gave his order and someone from the group volunteered and came out, the group heard shrill and piercing sounds from signal flares in the distance.
Their expressions changed.
“What’s going on?” The rising and falling signal flares caused Chief Wolf’s expression to turn darker and graver.
Whoosh!
He turned around swiftly and had his face turn cold and stern as he stared at Silver Wolf and his party’s eyes.
“You have companions!”
“Ha! You only learned about it now? It’s too late!” Silver Wolf and his party had only been able to last until now by relying on medicinal pills and the sword formation. They knew how they would end. But now, when they saw the signal flares released urgently in the distance, they smiled.
“Hahahaha!”
“Kill them!”
“Have a group stay behind and keep watch over the Guanlin Temple! Others, follow me!” When Chief Wolf saw that there was an increasing number of signal flares, his tone became much colder and darker. He drew his weapon and brought dozens of people out of the town. They headed to the direction where the signal flares were released in a mighty wave.
At the moment the Wild Wolves released the signal flares, Happy knew that he did not have much time left!
The Wild Wolves in Flame Town must have received news by now. Silver Wolf and his party might have to suffer through even greater pressure. In fact, they might have already died.
He had to end the fight as quickly as possible and kill the people here. Otherwise, when the two sides gathered together, things would become difficult.
As long as he killed the people here, even if those from Flame Town also knew this formation, he could seize their un-updated information about him and kill them!
When he thought of this, Happy no longer hesitated.
Dragon Capture!
He grabbed one Wild Wolf, twisted his wrist, and dragged his longsword.
That Wild Wolf was then easily controlled. In fact, he did not even have the chance to fight back!
Happy did not stop because of this.
Dragon Coil!
He killed one person. The shadow of a green dragon descended. Another unfortunate soul was dragged inside before he managed to react. They could only watch as Happy killed another person before he thrust his sword forward.
Heaven Crystal pierced through them.
He killed them one after another.
Five of the nine people in the first Forbidden Daiya Technique matrix died
In an instant, Flame Wolf charged forward from the distance.
Due to the influence from Tiger Soul, his features had already twisted so much that his face had practically changed. It was filled with a brutal, cruel, and fierce air.
In the distance, he swung his saber.
“Careful!”
Those words were naturally not aimed at Happy.
Happy held back the Wild Wolves, and their escape route was blocked. When Flame Wolf attacked, the first to be attacked were Immortal and her group.
They were surrounded by enemies.
The Wild Wolves’ expressions were dark. At that moment, only fifteen of them were left.
“Ah!”
As a pained scream rose, the Wild Wolves lost another member.
The saber glare from Tiger Soul reached them, and another member died.
Thirteen left.
Aside from one complete Forbidden Daiya Technique group, only Immortal and three other people were left. They fled madly into the desert.
“Where do you think you’re going?!”
Happy laughed and activated Wave-like Subtle Steps to chase behind Immortal.
When she realized Happy’s goal, she was shocked, and her expression changed.
Clang!
She drew her sword out of anger.
“Perfect timing.”
Immortal was already fleeing in panic, not caring about which direction she chose. Right then, she chose to use her flying sword to stop Happy.
Happy laughed and formed a claw with a hand. He seized the flying sword charging at him. Before the Wild Wolves’ shocked gazes, he put Immortal’s weapon into his Universe Bag.
“What?!”
In her shock, Immortal slowed down.
“ROAR!”
Half a minute passed just in time.
When the dragon’s roar rose, Immortal’s mind went blank, and she slowed down even more.
“Whoosh!”
At the moment her mind became clear once more, Immortal felt wind blow above her head.
She wanted to turn her head around, but pain flared at her throat.
Her consciousness was swiftly destroyed.
At the same time, Flame Wolf caught up to them, but he was lured to another side by the two Wild Wolves who were stranded.
Now, Happy and nine Wild Wolves who remained in the 1-2-3-2-1 formation were the only ones remaining in this part of the desert. They stared at each other at a stalemate.
Rumble!
The sounds of horses galloping on the sand rose.
Chief Wolf and the others had rushed over from Flame Town to provide reinforcements, and they finally appeared within the people’s sights.
When they saw this, the group who remained their formation gravely while they were ready to fight finally looked a little more relaxed.
“Our people have arrived! Happy, you have no chance to win anymore!”
The Wild Wolves across them cheered, as if they were trying to increase their courage.
Happy remained indifferent. He cast a faint glance at the rolling sand that came charging forward.
“Is that so?”
His voice was so indifferent that there was no inflection in it. It was as if the people coming over were inconsequential.
“Hmph! Peach Blossom and Immortal will soon be resurrected in Flame Town’s Guanlin Temple. After they eat medicine, we will be able to form nine Forbidden Daiya Technique matrices together. I’d like to see how you will be able to fight against the Great Forbidden Daiya Technique, especially when all our strengths have turned into one!”
“Great Forbidden Daiya Technique?”
When he heard this, Happy thought about it for a moment before his gaze turned cold. “That’s all there is to it!”
Before his voice faded away, he had already moved forward like the wind. Just like that, he charged to the Forbidden Daiya Forbidden formed by the nine people in front of him. He did not even bother hiding.
Their expressions changed. They pushed forward and put up the matrix. Then, they attacked.
Happy had been waiting for this moment. He activated Dragon Swings Its Tail.
He kicked the leader’s face, and their feet left the ground.
Before he landed on the ground, Happy delivered a palm strike quickly, and it landed fiercely on the Wild Wolf’s chest.
Boom!
Wild Fights in All Directions!
This was the ultimate technique he learned from the second stone plate.
It allowed him to release hidden forces abruptly. With one attack, he could force all enemies within a circular area of 32 feet to retreat.
It was this move that allowed him to injure all nine people in the Forbidden Daiya Technique, causing these nine people to die.
