Chapter 46: Meng Chuan’s Third Saber Strike
“We underestimated you too much,” Murong You—with his white-brows and golden eyes—spoke in a low voice . Following that, he transformed into a blur and fled east .
“Trying to flee?” Meng Chuan immediately pursued him without using the Power of the Soul . He could keep up with Murong You with his normal speed alone .
They rushed across roofs like ghosts in the night . Only the sound of the howling wind prevailed .
“Hubby, there’s some movement outside . ”
“It has quietened down . ” Inside the residence—which had its yard wall smashed through by Murong You and Vice Branch Master Tu Shang—a thin man stuck his head out from underneath a fallen roof beam . He looked outside carefully . In the darkness, he vaguely saw a muscular man about ten feet tall on the ground not far away . He was covered in black fur . At first glance, he looked like a large black bear . The thin man’s face turned pale, and he shrank back .
“Let’s not go out . No matter what happens, don’t bother . ”
“What happened?”
“I didn’t see clearly, but it looks like a bear demon is lying in our courtyard . It’s about ten feet tall, much taller than our house’s roof beam . ”
“What? A demon?”
The couple hid inside, not daring to go out again .
…
Within seconds, Murong You and Meng Chuan arrived close to a large river .
“Oh?” When Meng Chuan saw the river, he immediately understood . He’s unable to escape from me on land, so he wants to escape using the river? I’m not good at fighting underwater .
To experts, normal swimming and diving weren’t considered good enough .
Some water-aligned Godfiend bodies allowed one to be more agile than fishes when in water . They were extremely fast, and they could maintain high combat strength . Some demonic arts from the Skydemon Sect allowed their disciples to maintain relatively high combat strength in the water . The cultivation formula Meng Chuan had cultivated didn’t give him proficiency to fight in the water . He couldn’t even exert 10% of his strength underwater .
Humph! He’s so fast . He should have a Lightning Divine Body . I refuse to believe he still dares to chase me underwater . Murong You rushed towards the river .
At this point, Murong You had given up capturing Meng Chuan alive . All he wanted was to survive . This was because the Meng Chuan was unimaginably fast . Meng Chuan had even used him to kill Tu… It was a blow to his confidence .

As long as I can escape and report this to the higher-ups, I’ll gain plenty of credit . Meng Chuan has really hidden his strength well . He has clearly comprehended Saber Force for quite some time .
Meng Chuan’s saber arts were too exquisite . He didn’t look like a novice that had just comprehended Saber Force .
In truth, it had been more than half a year since Meng Chuan had comprehended Saber Force . Furthermore, he had fused some of the Lightning Devastator Saber’s secrets into his saber arts, making them more exquisite . With his hundred-foot domain, Meng Chuan was very capable in combat, thus giving Murong You the impression that Meng Chuan had comprehended Force for quite some time .
He might’ve comprehended Saber Force when he was sixteen . No . He might have comprehended when he was fifteen . The reported time for when he achieved the secret technique should be fake . He had probably figured out the secret technique when he was eleven or twelve . I was suppressed by him even though my demon core has been condensed for years . His talent is simply terrifying . If I report this to the demons, the demons will probably place a bounty on his head . When that happens, he’ll definitely die .
Oh? Murong You suddenly realized that Meng Chuan had suddenly increased his speed . In the blink of an eye, he was right behind him . He’s going all out . Murong You was alarmed . Back when Meng Chuan killed Tu, Murong You had witnessed the speeds Meng Chuan was capable of . Even so, he was still shocked seeing it a second time .
He was too fast!
Swoosh .
After confirming Murong You wanted to escape via the river, Meng Chuan did not delay any further . He had originally been stalling for time because he was waiting for his grandaunt to arrive . However, if he waited any longer, the other party would jump into the river and escape .
“Kill!” He decided to take one last gamble . He fused the Power of the Soul into his whole body . The absolute control over his physical body and Quintessential Energy made Meng Chuan feel omnipotent . He unleashed his power and chased after Murong You . As he did so, he struck out with his saber .
As his saber struck out, the lightning within his body exploded .
The 17th stance of the Lightning Devastator Saber—the first strike of the Five Lightning Descent!
If the Saber Drawing Stance was Meng Chuan’s go-to for dealing sneak attacks, then the partial Five Lightning Descent move was his strongest killing blow in a frontal assault . Its power was monstrous .

This strike was as fast as lightning, and an oppressive aura of magnificence accompanied it .
It’s so fast . Murong You felt like Meng Chuan’s attack was too fast . The saber strike was even faster and more domineering than Meng Chuan’s previous strikes .
It doesn’t pose a threat to me . Murong You instantly used a forbidden technique . His strength increased by a great deal, and his pair of scimitars perfectly sealed the area in front of him . With the sound of weapons clashing, Murong You perfectly parried the attack .
Boom!
Meng Chuan quickly followed up with a second strike .
His second strike carried the first strike’s might with it . The lightning in his body surged, and his Quintessential Energy gushed like tidal waves . This saber move was even more domineering . Although the saber beam was only ten feet long, it was much stronger than the Lightning Ultimate Saber Drawing Stance he had unleashed earlier .
Under the dark sky, Murong You’s vision blurred . He found the saber beam blinding .
Bam! Murong You was indeed skilled with wielding his two scimitars . He was able to block the attack with great difficulty . However, the beam transmitted a heavy force that reached his organs . Murong You’s body jolted, and his nasal cavities were filled with the smell of blood .
Now, the third saber strike! Meng Chuan’s eyes were filled with killing intent . After repeated usage of the Power of the Soul, Meng Chuan could only unleash one final strike . It was a desperate move .
He had obtained a portion of the Black Metal Sutra’s Lightning Devastator Saber 17th stance . He knew only the first two moves; the third move was unknown to him .
However, he used his knowledge of the first two moves to achieve his own version of the third attack . The lightning within his body rampaged . His Quintessential Energy flowed through his meridians, wave after wave . He wasn’t able to suppress the energies . He couldn’t redirect the energy and channel it into a fourth attack . All he could do was completely unleash all his power without any thought .
Whoosh .
The lightning and Quintessential Energy in his body entered his saber as he executed his final strike .
Whoosh .
It was unlike his previous two strikes . The first two strikes were powerful and dominating . Each strike faster and more domineering than the previous . The third strike was extremely soft . It was the Swaying Moonfall he had been cultivating for a very long time! He had used this technique to kill Tu Shang . However, the speed at which he delivered this Swaying Moonfall was far faster . After all, he had fused all energy accumulated from his first two moves, thus allowing him to deliver his most terrifying Swaying Moonfall .
The saber art was gentle and sinister, making its trajectory unpredictable .
This was a combination of moves Meng Chuan had devised by himself . By combining Five Lightning Descent’s first two moves, he could create a three-strike combo with Swaying Moonfall!
A combination of domineering and softness .
Not good . Murong You was used to blocking fast and furious strikes . He was prepared to block the third attack, but who would have thought the third attack would suddenly turn sinister and gentle? Murong You frantically tried to block it .
Murong You’s scimitars collided with the saber beam, but the beam was like moonlight pouring down, detectable but difficult to capture .
When Murong You’s scimitars touched the saber beam, a strange revolving force broke through his defense . The saber beam appeared before him .
This is bad . Murong You’s heart sank when he failed to block the attack . He instinctively used his arms to block .
Pfft!
An ethereal saber beam flashed .
An arm flew up, and a bloody gash appeared on Murong You’s chest .
Am I going to die by Meng Chuan’s hands? Murong You’s heart chilled . Although he survived the terrifying strike, he had lost an arm . The gaping wound on his chest caused his strength to drop drastically . He had half of his strength left .
He had been suppressed at his peak .
With half his peak strength left, Murong You felt disenchanted with the situation .
I didn’t manage to kill him? A chill ran down Meng Chuan’s spine . Using the Power of the Soul had exhausted him . He wasn’t able to unleash his full strength again . Without the Power of the Soul, his strength was the same as the two vice branch masters . Even if Murong You was severely injured, he didn’t have the confidence to keep him here .
