Chapter 935 Celestial Shadow Tricks the Five Geniuses (2/2)

“You really think I would be stupid enough to let you trap me inside?” Zhou Yuan laughed.

What he used was the Celestial Shadow Art, one of the seven Cangxuan Arts. Zhou Yuan had been thinking about this technique for a long time, but he hadn’t found the time to practice it. In preparation for the nine regions tournament, he finally found the opportunity to master it.

His first time using the Celestial Shadow Art was a great success.

This technique was incredibly mysterious. Once he hid in someone’s shadow, it was impossible to detect him.

Lu Hai’s face twitched as he gritted his teeth and said reluctantly, “Chief pavilion master Zhou Yuan represents the Tianyuan Region, but you didn’t even dare to respond to our challenge. Instead, you used this sneak attack. Are you not afraid that people will say you won unfairly?”

He originally thought that Zhou Yuan would face their final trump card to demonstrate the Tianyuan Region’s strength, but who would have thought that Zhou Yuan wouldn’t have such an intention? He had instead taken advantage of the moment they relaxed to approach them like a venomous snake.

Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but sneer when he heard Lu Hai’s words. He gazed at them as if the four were fools.

Lu Hai grew increasingly angry when he saw the look in Zhou Yuan’s eyes. He, too, knew how ridiculous his words were.

Paying no attention to them, Zhou Yuan turned to the mountain where the fierce battle was happening. His indifferent voice contained a chilling intent. “Tell them to stop. You have already lost this round, so don’t force me to kill you. It is normal to have death and injuries in a battle of this level.”

Lu Hai exchanged glances with the other three people, then bowed his head.

They hadn’t expected that they would lose so inexplicably.

“Stop,” Lu Hai’s voice rang out.

The battle in the mountains halted. Everybody looked to the mountain summit and saw Zhou Yuan standing behind Lu Hai and the others. They also saw the sword lights hovering behind Lu Hai’s and the other’s heads. The people of the five forces suddenly felt icy cold.

Lu Xiao, who was about to rush to the top of the mountain, also halted his steps, a look of astonishment crossing his face.

No one thought that Zhou Yuan, whom they were very worried about, would reverse the situation in the blink of an eye!

The eyes of the members of the four pavilions all sparkled with excitement.

Zhou Yuan cast a glance at the light tower in the distance and said, “That technique is interesting, but I have never heard that any of your five forces possessed such a technique.”

The light tower was indeed a very dangerous attack. Otherwise, Zhou Yuan wouldn’t have chosen to evade it.

When Lu Hai heard Zhou Yuan’s words, his heart shuddered, and he coldly hissed, “Don’t underestimate other people. Although we aren’t as strong as the Tianyuan Region, we aren’t weak in Hunyuan Heaven!”

Zhou Yuan didn’t respond. These five people were from five different forces, but they had practiced a secret art together? He of course didn’t believe it.

Moreover, all their preparations had targeted him and the Tianyuan Region. There was no way that Zhou Yuan would believe there was nothing fishy about this.

What kind of person in Hunyuan Heaven could command five top forces?

Zhou Yuan’s eyes flashed, but he didn’t say anything else. “The battle is over. Withdraw the tower.”

With sword light floating behind their heads, although Lu Hai and the others were reluctant, they had no choice but to obey. With one thought, the light tower in the distance began to disintegrate, then turned into waves of Genesis Qi and receded.

But when the waves of Genesis Qi neared Lu Hai and the others, Zhou Yuan’s eyes flashed, and he suddenly made a move. Hair gushed out from his palm, penetrated the four waves of Genesis Qi and wrapped around the fragments inside.

Zhou Yuan flicked his sleeve, and dozens of shimmering fragments flew towards him.

This change happened in the blink of an eye. Lu Hai and the others all stood stunned, but then their expressions changed drastically. “Zhou Yuan, you dare take our treasure?”
