Chapter 514: Chapter 222: Challenge Commander_3
"How did the Grand Elder’s Dragon Slaying Dagger end up in Han Mingshou’s hand?" Li Qingyi was somewhat surprised as well.
Back then, the Grand Elder fought bravely to defend the Heavenly Gate, severely injuring the Demon Spirit, and ultimately died in battle. The Parasitic Contract and Demon Spirit left behind some items, among which the Dragon Slaying Dagger was one.
The Dragon Slaying Dagger possesses a Dragon-locking Skill; once struck by the Dragon Slaying Dagger, even if uninjured, one will be immobilized by the Dragon-locking Force, rendering them helpless.
Among Radiant-level contracts, the Dragon Slaying Dagger is exceedingly formidable, and one of the Grand Elder’s favorite contracts.
Originally, after the Grand Elder’s death in battle, the Dragon Slaying Dagger was stored in the City Lord’s Mansion’s vault. Somehow, it ended up in Han Mingshou’s hands.
"Dragon Slaying Dagger," Wan Chaoxin focused on the dagger in Han Mingshou’s hand.
"Indeed, you have a keen eye," Han Mingshou replied indifferently. "When I became Commander, I was already at the Super Spirit Body level. Thus, when choosing Commander privileges, I didn’t select those precious resources but opted for this Dragon Slaying Dagger, perfectly combining it with my Poison Dragon Dagger into a twin-dagger setup, one for locking, one for poisoning, one for defense, one for attack. I’ve achieved perfection, you can’t defeat me."
"Perfect, is it?" Wan Chaoxin glanced at him disdainfully, pressing a horse-eye-shaped golden gemstone to his forehead. "In this world, you’re not the only one with a Super Spirit Parasite Contract."
The Phoenix Eye instantly emitted a dazzling light, setting into Wan Chaoxin’s forehead like a third eye, its golden flames swirling like an eerie golden pupil changing forms.
"What contract is that?" Almost no one had seen the Phoenix Eye before, unable to identify the contract and even less aware of its capabilities.
Only Li Qingyi and Bai Ying knew the terror of the Phoenix Eye, making the wielder, Wan Chaoxin, practically unbeatable; even Li Qingyi found it challenging to gain an advantage over him.
"You make the first move, for if I shoot an arrow, you’ll have no chance," Wan Chaoxin taunted disdainfully.
"What good is a Super Spirit Parasite Contract? I have the Dragon Slaying Dagger. No matter how many contracts you hold, you can’t escape the Dragon-locking Skill..." Han Mingshou sneered coldly, swinging both daggers like a phantom as he charged at Wan Chaoxin.
The two daggers danced in his hands, resembling black and green horned dragons rolling and strangling, enveloping Wan Chaoxin within.
Wan Chaoxin stood upright, arms at his sides, one hand gripping a bow and the other an arrow, moving effortlessly like a walk in the park.
No matter how violent Han Mingshou’s attacks were, they failed to touch even a corner of his clothes.
Wan Chaoxin seemed omniscient and omnipotent, anticipating Han Mingshou’s next strike, causing all his attacks to fail, rendering even the most frenzied assault ineffective.
"The Phoenix Eye is truly formidable," Li Qingyi couldn’t help but praise.
Yet the stronger the Phoenix Eye, the more curious Li Qingyi became about the Magic Armor Master who repelled Wan Chaoxin with a single shot.
How could such a formidable Wan Chaoxin be repelled by a simple shot, as if the Phoenix Eye, capable of predicting the future, lost its efficacy? What kind of Demon Armor could achieve such an outcome?
Other Commanders and high-ranking family members were surprised as well, discovering Wan Chaoxin’s combat prowess exceeded their expectations, and the previously unseen Phoenix Eye Parasite Contract sparked their covetousness.
Han Minghui frowned, having thought he was fully prepared, yet still underestimating Wan Chaoxin’s abilities.
Suddenly, Wan Chaoxin soared skyward like a phoenix, looking down upon Han Mingshou as he assembled a bow and arrow, pulling it open slowly.
"Commander Han, you’ve had enough fun, time to end it." As Wan Chaoxin spoke, the golden phoenix arrow transformed into a phoenix shape, its arrowhead becoming a phoenix’s head, releasing a golden gleam like a phoenix opening its eyes.
An overwhelming Demonic Light circulated on the bow and arrow, seeming to gather the world’s energies onto a single shot.
Han Mingshou stared intently at Wan Chaoxin, subconsciously gripping both daggers tighter, his body flashing with Demonic Light, continuously raising his Super Spirit Limit.
Buzz!
Amidst the audience’s gaze, the golden phoenix arrow emitted a phoenix’s cry, seemingly breaching space to appear directly in front of Han Mingshou.
Han Mingshou roared furiously, crossing and slashing with both daggers like two entwined horned dragons striking at the newly awakened phoenix.
Black and gold and green light burst forth where the dragons and phoenix collided, the Temple of Heaven sparking like fireworks.
Black and green light twisted around the golden arrow, yet seemingly unable to halt its power.
The Dragon-locking Force couldn’t contain the fiery phoenix arrow, which pressed against the twin daggers, descending bit by bit, its phoenix-shaped arrowhead screeching.
Han Mingshou dared not and couldn’t lose focus, engaging both daggers to resist the golden arrow’s might. Any lapse in strength, and the arrow would pierce through him instantly, leaving no room to evade.
Yet without evading, the golden phoenix arrow’s force vastly exceeded his capabilities, descending steadily, its glow almost touching his face.
In this heart-stopping moment, Han Mingshou roared angrily, thrusting the venomous dagger upward while retreating rapidly.
With his retreat, the golden phoenix arrow immediately breached the twin daggers’ defense, spearing Han Mingshou’s chest directly.
At such close range, Han Mingshou had no opportunity to evade, facing imminent penetration.
Suddenly, a Demon Spirit Ring on Han Mingshou’s finger emitted bright light, transforming into a massive human-like Xuan Turtle, shielding Han Mingshou with its back toward the golden phoenix arrow.
Light shone from its body, with black spikes covering its shell, full of shadowy Profound Light, unmistakably a Super Spirit Magic Spirit.
Crack!
The golden phoenix arrow struck the turtle shell, spinning ferociously like a drill, boring through the immensely tough shell and bursting through, continuing its path toward the Xuan Turtle and Han Mingshou.
An apparition appeared before Han Mingshou, with a hand wearing Celestial Silk Gloves clasping the golden arrow, forcibly dissipating its brilliance and power entirely.
"Wan Chaoxin, you have won, henceforth you shall be Commander of the Seeking Dao Group." Han Minghui tossed aside the golden arrow, leading Han Mingshou off the stage.
Eighth Master announced Wan Chaoxin as the leader of the Seeking Dao Group, allowing Wan Chaoxin to leave the stage as well.
"Wan Chaoxin... lives up to his reputation..." someone murmured in admiration.
Others worried that Wan Chaoxin becoming the Seeking Dao Group’s leader might destabilize Longevity City.
As discussions started to heat up, another person suddenly took the stage.
"I wish to challenge the Technicians’ Group Commander," the person said, staring at Li Xiu, expressionless.
