  Also, light that was bright as Vajra also flickered on Yan Zhaoge’s body!

  After the battle of Broad Creed Mountain, Yan Zhaoge had cultivated in another of Broad Creed Mountain’s Eight Extreme Arts, precisely the Vajra Body!

  With the three layers of defence, Yan Zhaoge forcibly withstood Zheng Shuo’s sabre!

  Zheng Shuo let out a low howl, exerting his strength to the maximum, the incomparably sharp power of the combination of an Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster and a mid-grade spirit artifact wanting to forcibly break through Yan Zhaoge’s defences!

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 349: Yan Zhaoge’s trademark weapon

  HSSB349: Yan Zhaoge’s trademark weapon

  An early Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster exerting his full strength through a mid-grade spirit artifact, executing a supreme martial art like the Baleful Black Divine Sabre, a shocking power was produced.

  Not evading or blocking, completely withstanding this sabre head-on, the pressure bore by Yan Zhaoge was not something normal people would be able to imagine.

  Even simultaneously executing the Spirit Rhino Demonic Fist and the Vajra Body, with the added on defensive power of the low-grade spirit artifact, the Lofty Mountain Armour, against this sabre, Yan Zhaoge still faced great danger.

  The defence of the Lofty Mountain Armour was broken through.

  The bright glow of the Vajra Body became dim, resembling Vajra on the edge of collapse.

  The Spirit Rhino Demonic Fist was circulated to the maximum possible level, Yan Zhaoge’s flesh, blood and skin gradually coming to resemble that of the prehistoric giant rhino somewhat.

  However, faced with Zheng Shuo’s full-powered blow, the three layers of defences were still forcibly broken through!

  Yan Zhaoge remained completely uncaring regarding this, his left hand blocking the Thunder Rumbling Arrow shot over from far away using the Earth Devouring Burner, flicking out his right hand as the Jade Dragon Sword transformed into a green light, shooting straight towards the faraway Lin Zhou!

  The sword-light resembled a rainbow, also being enshrouded in countless streams of electricity, resembling a jade-green thunder dragon instantly piercing straight through the skies, headed straight for Lin Zhou.

  Continuously wielding the high-grade spirit artifact bow, Lin Zhou had currently used up almost all of his strength as well. Still he forcibly drew on all his power to draw Heaven Shocker for a fourth time.

  However, the Thunder Rumbling Arrow just being notched, not having time to aim it, a jade-coloured light was already right before him.

  His strength being virtually depleted, still forcibly pulling back the high-grade spirit artifact, all of Lin Zhou’s power was concentrated on Heaven Shocker.

  Faced with the Jade Dragon Sword as flung out by Yan Zhaoge, he now seemed stiff and unmoving as a statue as he could not easily shift his body in evasion.

  Clenching his teeth, Lin Zhou could only move Heaven Shocker within his hands before him to block the sword-light that resembled a jade dragon.

  An explosion resounded, purple and green light exploding, enveloping the entire area!

  Lin Zhou’s Heaven Shocker erupted with a shocking power. While it was a bow, as a high-grade spirit artifact, it still blocked the Jade Dragon Sword, a low-grade spirit artifact.

  However, Lin Zhou himself was also sent flying, Heaven Shocker directly jolted out of his hands.

  The bow that flickered with the purple light of thunder landed on the ground, its snakes of thunder rampaging out of control as several deep craters were exploded out within the nearby snowy plains.

  “Ah!” A mournful, enraged howl resounded on the Extreme Northern Snowy Plains, resembling a wounded, solitary wolf.

  Lin Zhou toppled onto the ground, a hand on his face, covering one of his eyes.

  However, by the edges of his palm and the gaps between his fingers, fresh blood was flowing unceasingly, unable to be stopped!

  While Heaven Shocker had shocked and jolted the Jade Dragon Sword away in another direction, saving Lin Zhou from the fate of death, one of his eyes had been pierced through and blinded by its sword-light!

  Lin Zhou gulped in a breath of cool air, struggling to get up, his remaining eye bloodshot as it bulged outwards.

  He fought to gaze into the distance, seeing that Zheng Shuo’s sabre-light had broken through Yan Zhaoge’s defences, being about to land on his body.

  However, before the two of them could rejoice, a golden light suddenly flickered on Yan Zhaoge’s skin!

  A simple yet profound rune appeared on Yan Zhaoge’s body, helping Yan Zhaoge to block Zheng Shuo’s sabre!

  Yan Zhaoge recited an ancient, hard to pronounce incantation.

  As the golden light flickered, a golden layer of radiance was added onto his entire body as he resembled a statue of gold.

  Accompanied by the ancient incantation being recited by Yan Zhaoge, the golden radiance on his body grew denser, the rune on his chest clearer and more profound.

  Golden light emanated, forming a fourth layer of defence, keeping Zheng Shuo’s sabre-light at bay.

  Lin Zhou had seen this scene once before. It was precisely Yan Zhaoge’s Golden Talisman Body!

  Under the forces of the Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster Zheng Shuo and his mid-grade spirit artifact, the Baleful Black Sabre, the golden talismanic qi of the Golden Talisman Body was rapidly depleted completely, the golden radiance on Yan Zhaoge’s body gradually completely dispersing.

  However, his power continuously grinded away, Zheng Shuo was currently already greatly hard pressed to sustain it as well.

  Seeing that he was just a step away from slaying Yan Zhaoge, Zheng Shuo howled furiously, wanting to add additional power to the Baleful Black Sabre within his hands.

  Yan Zhaoge was expressionless as he let out a long roar.

  In his right hand that had been freed after he had thrown out the Jade Dragon Sword, another object suddenly appeared!

  A dark green branch of bamboo!

  The bamboo branch was not long, being divided into three segments.

  Yan Zhaoge raised the bamboo branch, striking towards Zheng Shuo’s Baleful Black Sabre.

  The bamboo branch which seemed fragile to the point of not even being able to withstand a single strike, something that could be broken by any random normal person, instead shocked Zheng Shuo greatly.

  He saw that a crack had been forcibly beaten out on his Baleful Black Sabre!

  A mid-grade spirit artifact, having been cracked by a single bamboo branch!

  However, he clearly could not sense any spiritual qi or power fluctuations from that bamboo branch.

  While Yan Zhaoge’s strength far surpassed other martial practitioners of the same cultivation level, something that he had not been able to do even with a low-grade spirit artifact, the Jade Dragon Sword, had actually been achieved by him with a single bamboo branch?

  At this moment, Zheng Shuo was really rendered wide-eyed and tongue-tied for a bit.

  He was just dazed for a moment, before realising that he shouldn’t. With Yan Zhaoge just before him, getting dazed was like asking to die.

  But for a moment, he was truly uncontrollably left dazed on the spot.

  Zheng Shuo’s mind held no sorrow or no rage at all, just finding it incomprehensible and utterly ridiculous, feeling that it just totally didn’t feel real at all!

  Incomprehensible…

  How was it possible…

  Utterly ridiculous!

  Zheng Shuo forcibly shook off such emotions of his, forcibly clearly his mind.

  As he regained his clarity, what appeared before his eyes was Yan Zhaoge having already switched from defence to attack, raising his right hand as the dark green bamboo branch within his hand slammed down towards him!

  Not in time to retract his sabre, Zheng Shuo wielded a low-grade spirit artifact to withstand it.

  His belt lit up with a crimson glow, forming streams of light that blocked b
efore him like chains.

  However, Yan Zhaoge’s dark green bamboo branch descended, directly snapping those crimson chains!

  That low-grade spirit artifact seemed to let out a tragic cry as it was directly destroyed!

  Zheng Shuo was utterly lost for words, “What exactly is this thing ah?!”

  Seeing this scene, Lin Zhou was stunned before he painfully closed his one remaining eye.

  Not only had he been blinded in one eye, Lin Zhou also felt that his body was currently extremely weak, with even standing up being a challenge, his entire body hurting to the bones.

  Having been injured by Yan Zhaoge just having pulled back the bowstring of Heaven Shocker for the fourth time, he had suffered a backlash from the bow, his body that had originally already been greatly exhausted instantly being gravely injured.

  Glancing over and looking at the temperamental, rampant Shocking Heaven that he would not be able to retrieve, Lin Zhou could only suffer the pain and turn, fleeing as fast as he could!

  Heaven Shocker had always been held by his father, Lin Tianfeng. After Lin Tianfeng had died, the significance of this bow, to Lin Zhou, was not simply just that of a high-grade spirit artifact.

  However, at this moment, he had no choice but to give it up.

  In his current condition, he had to retreat immediately. Otherwise, if he didn’t leave now, he would truly be unable to leave this place forever.

  Meanwhile, above the Time Connection Spring, after descending and breaking Zheng Shuo’s low-grade spirit artifact, the dark green bamboo branch in Yan Zhaoge’s hands immediately struck down on Zheng Shuo’s crown!

  The Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster saw stars, the heavens seemingly spinning and the earth seemingly rotating about him.

  Even while he had agglomerated his defences of true essence in time, his head had almost been crushed by the impact!

  Amidst their intense battle, despite being stabilised by Ah Hu’s full strength, the Time Connection Spring beneath them still surged intensely.

  Sucking in a deep breath, Yan Zhaoge raised the bamboo branch once more, slamming it down towards Zheng Shuo!

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 350: Unexpected gains!

  HSSB350: Unexpected gains

  Shining with purple light, the dark green bamboo branch in Yan Zhaoge’s hand, raised casually, then descended.

  However, the flickering dark green shadow caused Zheng Shuo to see stars.

  If Yan Zhaoge had suddenly taken out a high-grade spirit artifact, Zheng Shuo would still not be as hard pressed to cope with the situation as this.

  But however one looked at it, other than a faint layer of purple light on its exterior, there was nothing special about that dark green bamboo branch at all.

  When it had revealed a grand, mighty power and repelled his Baleful Black Sabre as well as broken that low-grade spirit artifact of his, it had still remained completely ordinary and innocuous, with him unable to feel any shocking power from it at all.

  It was as though Yan Zhaoge had just randomly pulled down an ordinary bamboo branch from somewhere.

  However, as Zheng Shuo retracted his sabre and blocked with great difficulty, the dark green bamboo branch beat down on the Baleful Black Sabre once more.

  Yet another crack appeared on the blade of the mid-grade spirit artifact.

  Yan Zhaoge ignored the escaping Lin Zhou, glancing at the affected Time Connection Spring which was beginning to ripple intensely before looking back at Zheng Shuo before him.

  The dark green bamboo branch descended once more, leaving Zheng Shuo only able to barely raise his sabre to parry it.

  Greatly stifled, Zheng Shuo wanted to go all out without abandon, attacking Yan Zhaoge, yet was blocked by the Earth Devouring Burner within Yan Zhaoge’s left hand.

  The bamboo branch within Yan Zhaoge’s hand descended like wild winds and a tempestuous storm.

  After a while, Zheng Shuo suddenly felt the Baleful Black Sabre within his hands shake intensely. The next moment, having already been riddled with cracks, finally unable to bear the burden, its blade broke apart!

  This mid-grade spirit artifact, shockingly, was also shattered by Yan Zhaoge’s dark green bamboo branch!

  Seeing this scene, Zheng Shuo’s expression remained wooden, yet clearly a woodenness caused by already being shocked to the point of numbness.

  What he minded was that already being heavily injured, also having lost the Baleful Black Sabre, he was already no longer Yan Zhaoge’s match.

  Indeed, Yan Zhaoge struck out with the dark green bamboo branch, directly sending Zheng Shuo toppling backwards, landing right in the spring waters of the Time Connection Spring below.

  Ah Hu was prepared to block him upon seeing this, but seeing the signal from Yan Zhaoge’s eyes, remained seated in the air above the golden lamps of light.

  Yan Zhaoge chased all the way downwards, a majestic sword-light appearing, directly penetrating through the spring water and piercing straight through Zheng Shuo’s body.

  The Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster was slain by Yan Zhaoge within this Time Connection Spring.

  Amidst Zheng Shuo’s death, in that moment when he died, the rite that had been performed by Yan Zhaoge within the Time Connection Spring circulated to the maximum, turning the great amount of death qi into life force.

  This life force was not used on Zheng Shuo, instead being supplied to the bodies of Shi Jun and Ying Yuzhen in an unending stream as guided by the ceremony.

  Zheng Shuo’s eyes bulged, unaccepting of his death, staring at Yan Zhaoge who was currently similarly within the spring water.

  Yan Zhaoge’s attention was already no longer placed on him as he instead focused his mind completely on controlling the ceremony, at the same time also paying close attention to Shi Jun and Ying Yuzhen.

  Zheng Shuo’s fresh blood flowed into the spring, containing the incomparably strong qi and blood of an Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster.

  Waves already having risen before, the waters of the spring seemed to surge at this moment.

  Zheng Shuo’s fresh blood vanished within the Time Connection Spring before blue light appeared once more, very quickly being converted to a bloodred glow.

  The power of life was sent into the bodies of Shi Jun and his mother in an unending stream.

  While the two remained unconscious, seemingly slumbering, the paleness on their faces gradually faded as the colour returned to their cheeks.

  Shi Jun’s condition was better, the air of deterioration about him having completely vanished, his skin smooth and jadelike, as though really only having entered a state of slumber.

  The condition of his mother, Ying Yuzhen, was not as good as his, but had already taken a great turn for the better.

  When Yan Zhaoge had seen her lying within the ice coffin for the first time, it had truly been hard to call her a living person.

  To a certain degree, it was like she had only possessed just half a breath more than the already dead.

  Now, however, it was certain that Ying Yuzhen had finally struggled back from the boundary between life and death.

  While she was still some distance away from fully recovering and awakening, a great deal of time being required, with even Yan Zhaoge unable to say for sure when or even whether she might awaken, there at least now newly existed hope.

  Looking at Shi Jun and Ying Yuzhen, Yan Zhaoge revealed a smile from the very depths of his heart.

  He let out a long breath, his tense spirits only finally relaxing at this time.

  When the blood colour within the spring’s waters had gradually grown lighter to the point of it finally completely dispersing, the lamps on the two poles were extinguished alongside it.

  Yan Zhaoge reached out and kept the two poles before using his aura-qi to sweep up Shi Jun and Ying Yuzhen within the water, rising out of the waters of the spring together.

  Lowering his head, the spring water already no longer emanated heat, its temperature also ha
ving gone down.

  The spiritual qi of this Time Connection Spring had already been completely spent.

  Yan Zhaoge carefully checked up on the condition of the mother and son. Little Shi Jun’s condition was extremely good as he appeared as though he might wake up at any moment.

  The condition of his mother, Ying Yuzhen, was a little worse, but at the very least, Yan Zhaoge no longer had to worry about her passing away at any moment.

  This way, they could slowly look for other methods to treat her with.

  Looking at these two somewhat familiar whilst also somewhat foreign faces, Yan Zhaoge sighed softly before opening the two ice coffins once more, placing the bodies of the two respectively within.

  The ice coffins not only possessed the effect of sealing, at the same time also being able to nourish the qi and blood.

  Placing Ying Yuzhen’s body within, her body would continue to be nourished, to be followed up with later on.

  Meanwhile, there would also not be a problem with Shi Jun’s body being placed within the ice coffin, because when Shi Jun woke up, as the one carrying around the ice coffins, Yan Zhaoge would be able to detect it.

  Before that, while Shi Jun himself remained unconscious, he would also receive the nourishing effects of the ice coffin.

  Closing up the covers of the ice coffins, Yan Zhaoge stroked one’s surface, smacking his lips, “It actually succeeded, being even better than I had thought.”

  Originally, due to the insufficient spiritual qi of the spring water, in his predictions, he would only have been able to save a single person.

  When Zheng Shuo and Lin Zhou had suddenly launched an attack on them, a strange, miraculous thought had suddenly arisen within Yan Zhaoge’s mind.

  In the end, he had achieved both things at once and saved both the mother and son at the same time, this being an unexpected, surprising gain for him.

  Looking at Zheng Shuo within the spring below, already having perished, Yan Zhaoge shook his head slightly, stomping downwards, the soil and stone above the spring collapsing together, burying it up into concealment once more.

  On the other side, Ah Hu had already gone far away, retrieving Yan Zhaoge’s Jade Dragon Sword.
