Human Clan Defender-Chapter 817 - 5-6: Tiptoeing Clan, Divine King Bleeds (Double - )

If I end up trapped within the Zhongshan Clan, that would be quite a disaster.

Remember, you know a person's face but not their heart.

Shen Changqing wouldn't rashly trust someone he just met not long ago.

Thus.

He had no intention of going to the Zhongshan Clan.

Even if Zhongshan Chou had no ill intent toward him, other strong members of the Zhongshan Clan might have ideas.

Moreover.

I need to first understand the current situation of the Human Clan.

Not knowing anything and heading to a clan of strong individuals is akin to handing your life over to them.

"Since Brother Zhenmo has made his decision, I won't force it. If Brother Zhenmo has time someday, feel free to visit the Eternal Ancient Continent's Candle Sect, which serves as my Zhongshan Clan's sect territory."

Spoke Zhongshan Chou.

Eternal Ancient Continent?

Candle Sect?

Shen Changqing quietly noted this name in his heart and then nodded.

"Zhongshan, since you invited me, I will surely visit when I have time."

"Good."

"Then, I'll take my leave first."

Shen Changqing cupped his fists, then turned to leave.

Standing atop the Pursuit Shuttle, Zhongshan Chou suddenly revealed his true form, closing his eyes with two dark vortices swirling within, causing the surrounding void to darken instantly.

"Brother Zhenmo!"

A low voice echoed.

Soon.

Shen Changqing's figure vanished instantly, without turning back as expected.

In the next breath.

A dazzling blade light tore through the darkness.

Instantly.

A huge warning arose in Zhongshan Chou's heart, he turned quickly, sweeping his massive snake tail across, smashing through layers of void.

Rip—

The blade light streaked by, severing the snake tail.

As divine blood scattered in the void, he let out a painful cry.

With one successful strike.

Shen Changqing kept his eyes closed, not meeting Zhongshan Chou's gaze.

At this moment.

Zhongshan Chou exhaled heavily, unleashing a terrifying whirlwind, annihilating everything in its wake.

In response to this.

He took a step, executing the Innate Divine Ability of timeless horizons, disappearing from the spot in an instant, almost simultaneously, appearing behind the opponent.

First Grade Divine Skills.

Heaven and Earth Slash.

With blade light like the creation of heaven and earth, it completely shattered the darkness.

Zhongshan Chou's heart trembled, instinctively trying to defend, yet his movements froze halfway.

Half a breath later.

His head fell from his neck, divine blood gushed out.

The enormous snake body fell heavily into the void, utterly still.

Zhongshan Chou was slain.

The darkness in the void cleared instantly.

Shen Changqing sheathed his blade, gazing at the snake corpse quietly lying in the void, his chest heaved violently.

Although the battle seemed to end quickly, it was actually exhaustively intense.

Each clash carried countless dangers, with one misstep potentially leading to demise. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Needless to say.

Zhongshan Chou's strength was indeed terrifyingly formidable, especially the Innate Divine Ability, Abyss of Dark, an extraordinarily fearsome technique.

Closing his eyes in avoidance.

Was merely a solution Shen Changqing devised on the spot.

After all, not even Innate Divine Abilities can be insurmountable, for if they were capable of drawing all living beings inside upon use, it would be alarmingly dreadful.

Thus.

When Zhongshan Chou made his move, he decided to gamble on it, trying to avoid direct gaze and see if he could evade the influence of the Innate Divine Ability.

Thankfully.

He wagered correctly.

Although Abyss of Dark was exceptionally powerful, it required eye contact between the parties; by closing his eyes, he greatly diminished the impact of the opponent's Innate Divine Ability.

And this.

Became the foundation for his victory.

Truth be told.

Shen Changqing hadn't anticipated Zhongshan Chou would attack him.

Years of experience, however, had taught him to never let down his guard.

Thus, the moment Zhongshan Chou tried to launch a sneak attack, his instincts immediately responded.

Recalling the moment he slew Zhongshan Chou, an inexplicable sense of familiarity arose, making Shen Changqing reflect deeply.

Seeing the panel, his expression changed slightly.
