Eternal Sword

Chapter 478: Chasing at the Bottom of the River
Back then in the Taoist temple, the reason why Chen Tang was able to block Tian Yin's assassination was simply because he accidentally entered into a strange state while meditating at that time.

It felt like my soul had left my body and reached a high place, overlooking the world and being able to sense everything around me, every detail clearly.

Even at his peak condition and having opened the realm of divine illumination, Chen Tang was not sure he could withstand Tian Yin's fatal blow.

What's more, he is now suffering from internal injuries.

We must seize the opportunity!
The shadows of the willow trees by the river, the willow branches swaying in the wind, the boats coming and going at the ferry, and even the soil under your feet...

These could be where this person is hiding!

But Chen Tang didn't notice.

Even in the state of divine illumination, no flaws can be seen.

Using the "Swift Wind Art" to sense, there was nothing unusual around.

The gap between the two sides is too big.

For a hermit who has cultivated to the innate realm, the art of concealment has reached another level!
Although Chen Tang was unable to determine the location of Tianyin, he was certain that this person was nearby, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

It was eerily quiet.

It seems that even the air has solidified!
Before he knew it, Chen Tang had already arrived at the riverside.

He suddenly stopped, took a deep breath, and a roar burst out from the depths of his throat!

It was like the roar from the king of beasts, shaking the earth!

This roar also contains a vast and sacred power of Buddhism that can subdue all demons.

Whether it was these Earth Ranking masters or Tian Yin from the Dongyi tribe, they had already known about his Lion's Roar and would be on guard against it.

During the fight, this sound attack technique had almost no effect.

Instead of this, it would be better to release him early.

Chen Tang's lion roar was not intended to cause any harm to Tian Yin who was hiding in the dark.

Instead, we need to use sound waves to break the tranquility around us!
The reason why hermits can hide their tracks is that low-level hermits have to rely on some light and perform many tricks to deceive the eyes.

When one reaches the Tianyin level, the art of concealment is perfected. One can hide oneself not only with light, but also with the help of the surrounding environment, temperature, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, or people or objects.

In other words, it is not hiding, but blending into the surrounding environment in a very harmonious way.

No matter how you investigate, you can't find any flaws.

And Chen Tang's lion's roar is meant to break this harmony!
The lion roared, the sound waves spread, and the surrounding air was stirred like ripples, spreading rapidly.

Everything around was impacted by the lion's roar, and various fluctuations occurred, destroying its original state.

The willow trees swayed gently, and their leaves fell rustlingly.

The mud surged and splashed everywhere.

Everyone on the cargo ship at the dock was shocked.

The river surface sparkles, as if there is a breeze blowing...

But above the surface of the river, there was a small area that was a little blurry, and the waves on it were slightly different from those in other places.

"Underwater!"

Three words flashed through Chen Tang's mind.

If he had not uttered that lion's roar the moment he entered the water, it was almost certain that he would have been assassinated by this Tianyin, and his life would have been very dangerous!

At the same time, a figure broke out of the water, with a flash of cold light, and went straight to Chen Tang's eyebrows!

Tianyin also realized that his whereabouts had been exposed, so he made a prompt decision and took immediate action.

But this time, Chen Tang had made judgments and preparations first, so the situation was different.

At the moment when this person broke through the water, Chen Tang dodged in advance, using the "Catching the Wind and Shadow" technique, moving sideways for several feet, diving into the water, and swimming towards the bottom of the river!

Tianyin's figure paused for a moment.

Under normal circumstances, even if the assassination failed, he should have fled far away.

But he followed all the way here, and seeing Chen Tang injured and helpless, he jumped into the river again. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be a pity to let him escape!

One of the training programs for hermits is to become familiar with water.

What's more, he had cultivated to the innate realm, and there was a breath of innate true Qi in his dantian that circulated continuously in his body, so even if he stayed in the river for several days and nights, it would not have any effect on him.

But this person is only at the Enlightenment Stage. Even if he is a good swimmer, how long can he stay at the bottom of the river?

What's more, even in the river, there is still a huge gap between their realms, and this person is still not his opponent.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and the innate true qi in Tianyin's body rose. His body quickly fell, sank into the river, and disappeared.

The whole process may sound slow, but it actually happens in the blink of an eye.

Many people did not see clearly what happened. They just saw a small splash of water appearing on the surface of the river and then Chen Tang disappeared.

"Boss, what was that thing that just popped out of the water? Why is it suddenly gone now?"

In the teahouse, a waiter blinked and asked.

Another guy laughed and said, "Nothing, you must be dazzled."

Old Li frowned, stared at the river and pondered in silence.

He couldn't say for sure.

It seemed like there was only one person just now.

Before I could see clearly, 'that person' disappeared on the river.

He couldn't even see it clearly with his eyesight, let alone the guys in the store.

Is it...

Old Li's heart trembled and he subconsciously looked at He Shiyao not far away.

At this moment, He Shiyao was washing the dust from his forehead by the river, looking towards the direction of the river with a sneer on his face, as if he was sure of victory.

"Young Shopkeeper, Chen Tang seems to have escaped?"

someone whispered.

"He can't escape."

He Shiyao shook his head and said calmly: "This Xiajiang is where he will be buried!"
-
Chen Tang jumped into the Xia River and swam directly to the bottom of the river without hesitation.

Not long after he jumped into the Xia River, he felt a slight movement on the water surface not far behind him.

That Tianyin is chasing us!

The crisis has not been resolved yet!

Chen Tang looked calm, squinting his eyes in the river and swimming hard.

In the past, he had followed the giant monster of the East China Sea, drifted in the East China Sea for several months, practiced on the seabed, and fought against the raging waves. He had already developed superb water skills.

Compared with the turbulent waters of the East China Sea, the waters of the Xia River are really too gentle.

Chen Tang swam in the river like a fish, his body soft and soft, as if he had merged into one with the water.

As his body rose and fell, his arms slid and he swam several feet away, getting farther and farther away from the river!

Tianyin was following him like a shadow, and his speed was even faster than his!
Chen Tang is proficient in water, but after all, in terms of power, he is far inferior to the hermit in the innate realm.

Driven by the innate true qi, this hermit did not consider the resistance of the water flow at all. He was like a sharp blade, breaking through the waves and chasing after Chen Tang!

The distance between the two is getting closer and closer.

There was no way to keep running away like this, he would definitely be caught up.

Moreover, the innate warrior has his own world within his body and possesses the ability to breathe internally. The innate true qi circulates back and forth, so even if he stays at the bottom of the river for several days and nights, he will not suffocate.

No matter how strong his lung training is, he can't match this.
