The Way of The Dao

Chapter 398 (Vol 2) – Fighting the Potential

Tang Wanying pulled the thin string of her bow as an arrow of her cultivation essence shot out in the direction of the black-robed man.

Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin moved behind the powerful arrow shot out, with their respective weapons, closing in on the enemy.

With a simple movement of his arm, the black-robed man removed the arrow while successfully fending off the attack of the two women in front of him.

"Come on, why don't you two better surrender to me? That way I promise I'll take care of each of you." A lecherous grin formed on the man's face as he watched the four women.

If these women were to ascend to the Cultivation Realm, it was certain that they would be considered the world's first beauties.

There were only three beautiful young women who would be on the same level that anyone would dream of having from the world they came from, but it was a pity that those three women were also Great Ascension experts, so no one would enter their eyes. Plus they also had several male experts in the realm of the Great Ascension in their sect.

Therefore, this black-robed man was excited to discover these divine jades in a low-level world.

"Hmph!" A cold snort came from Long Yuyin as she swung her Daggers towards him.

Zhang Xinya took aim and pierced from the other side with her Spear, wanting to cut off one of the man's escape routes.

The black-robed cultivator sneered as he first expelled his Potential, slightly halting these women's advances.

However, the man was surprised when he saw that they had only stopped for a few seconds when they began to move again with greater speed.

What was going on?

How could they move under his Potential?!

He was an expert in the realm of Separation and Reunion! Enough to be able to suppress people below this realm without any problems!

For the first time, the man moved and escaped the attack, retreating several meters while still thinking that this made no sense.

A feeling of shame and humiliation radiated in his being at the thought that weaker cultivators than him could stand against his Potential.

Although he wasn't at his peak, he still had the strength to be able to kill cultivators below his level!

"Now I don't care what you say anymore! I'll enjoy you once I'm done with this!" The black-robed man roared as he rushed at them, feeling that he should humiliate these women by making them his no matter what.

With a nimble movement, the man arrived in front of the women and directed his hand towards Tang Wanying's neck.

* Whoosh! *

A barrier of powerful energy clashed against his hand, startling him again before mobilizing his own Potential to counter.

The energy barrier came from Mu Shuiruo, pouring her power into the scroll as it struck the man's Potential.

This time, the Potential increased in intensity and slowed the four women in their movements. But he also felt some difficulty due to the strange aura coming from Mu Shuiruo's Map.

* Slash! *

With his sword, the black-robed man fiercely slashed the barrier holding them all before facing Zhang Xinya's spear and with his foot launching a kick towards Long Yuyin.

As both women backed away from the impact, the man quickly distanced himself before a powerful arrow penetrated the place where he stood a second ago.

"That arrow is more trouble..." He muttered as he observed the unusual formation of these four women, feeling that it was troublesome even for him, "One woman defends using that strange map and the other attacks from afar with these arrows, while the other two attack personally..."

However, the black-robed man had been through thousands of fights and did not believe that simple women from a small world could beat him.

The four women quickly moved in, trying to lock the man down as the attacks began to shoot out.

The Potential expanded further, locking down the movement of the four women as the man tried to incapacitate them.

Nevertheless, Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya would always manage to move under the Potential and dodge the black-robed man's attacks. Tang Wanying would also help by shooting multiple arrows and give the two women time, while Mu Shuiruo would be the first to manage to break the Potential thanks to her Map of the Heavens, Earth, Rivers and Mountains.

The women had trained under Ling Tian's strange but powerful Domain, so they would be able to break this enemy's Potential with some time!

A Potential would only be effective and powerful if the cultivator achieved great comprehension and was not limited to their cultivation base, being able to be invincible in their own realm, even managing to be able to escape by being able to unravel the mysteries of a Domain.

* Boom! *

The man continued to move quickly, realizing that slowly these women were still improving!

With no other choice, the man decided to charge in earnest regardless of the consequences.

* Swoosh! *

The man fiercely threw his sword towards Tang Wanying, causing the latter to dodge and defend against every attack of this sword.

His flying sword was of a higher level, so it would not be so easy to be countered and would even be one more independent attack.

Then, he dodged the movement of the spear before opening his hands and quickly grabbing Long Yuyin's hands, wanting to deal with her first while suppressing her with his Potential.

But unexpectedly, Mu Shuiruo acted quickly and cast her treasure aura, breaking the Potential holding Long Yuyin in less than a few seconds.

Long Yuyin snorted coldly as she launched a powerful kick towards his stomach, catching him off guard before the attack he planned to make!

Long Yuyin managed to wriggle out of his grip when she once again waved her hands wanting to slash with her Daggers in the direction of the enemy.

Zhang Xinya's Spear emitted a scorching wave of fire as the cultivation essence shot out, appearing behind the man and piercing towards him.

The black-robed man sneered and moved, but opened his eyes wide in surprise when he saw what was a few meters away near him.

* Swoosh! * * Swoosh! * * Swoosh! *

Multiple arrows appeared in his path!

With a fierce swing of his arms, the cultivation essence instantly exploded the arrows.

Tang Wanying kept dodging the man's flying sword, but unexpectedly she was still able to attack with no trouble at all, catching the man off guard in the end.

* Bang! *

A spearhead pierced his back, causing him to roar in pain as he retreated several meters.

'How is it that they can progress so fast, besides it seems like they'll always know what I'll do!' The black-robed man roared in his mind as he saw that this was getting messy.

Although it was obvious that these women didn't have much combat experience, they somehow knew how to move and how to attack or defend!

Furthermore, their battle progress was growing rapidly as well!

His Potential would always manage to suppress these women, but somehow, they managed to move. Even more so with the Map one of them had, casting a strange but powerful aura, breaking the Potential and leaving him unable to achieve more!

Adding to the fact that one of them kept dodging and battling with his flying sword, she would always manage to shoot arrows in the end.

Moreover, the unusual formation of these four women gave the man a feeling that something really wasn't right; it's as if there was a gap, an empty space and that was the moment he could escape and move!

The enemy's thoughts had partly guessed right what was going on.

Ling Tian had taught Yun Mengxin, Zhang Xinya, Tang Wanying, Mu Shuiruo and Long Yuyin a formation among the five of them to be able to fight against a powerful cultivator!

But now Yun Mengxin was missing, so they would not be able to fully show the effectiveness of this formation. But even so, it was still shocking to be able to defend and attack.

Mu Shuiruo once again used the treasure in her hands, casting the powerful ancient aura towards the enemy, preventing him from using his Potential!

Zhang Xinya moved quickly and waved her spear, slashing in the direction of the enemy. Tang Wanying immediately released the arrows, passing inches close to Zhang Xinya and moving smartly towards the man.

The black-robed cultivator drew another sword and deflected Zhang Xinya's attack. But when he was going to again using the same pattern, a powerful aura covered him and slowed his speed greatly.

Long Yuyin was waiting for this moment!

She used a nimble movement and suddenly appeared beside him.

* Tear! *

Slashing with her Daggers, Long Yuyin managed to hit the man's left arm!

Flesh and blood flew out instantly, with the man feeling horror for the first time at having a more serious wound.

Cultivation essence flowed out and tried to strike Long Yuyin!

* Strike! *

However, Zhang Xinya pierced the man's other shoulder with her Spear, inflicting another fatal wound!

Tang Wanying stretched her bowstring when more than 3 arrows shot out with piercing power!

Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin moved behind these arrows to inflict other blows on the man whilst Mu Shuiruo tried to lock him up with her treasure!

"You dare!" The man became angry when he saw what these women wanted to do, so he made his flying sword return back to him.

His cultivation essence madly poured into his sword just before the powerful attacks came towards him.

With a cold sneer, the man wanted to wave his sword at them when suddenly a powerful aura burst forth, causing everyone to recoil heavily!

The black-robed man expelled blood from his mouth as he was affected as well.

Yet, Mu Shuiruo, Long Yuyin, Zhang Xinya and Tang Wanying were also severely injured, spitting out mouthfuls of blood as they flew away due to the fierce blow from the unexpected aura. 

Riixhiie

Hey, what's up? :o

Haha I'm so mean to you guys by not warning or posting anythin, lol. :3

Lately I got hooked on several novels that I had let their chapters pile up and set out to read them (over 2k chapters in these two weeks, you can think I took a little vacation break and enjoy reading other novels lol), plus I got caught up in their plot and was jotting down things about how I could develop the fight scenes in my novel and other important areas I hadn't thought of.

But mainly it was because I had written several chapters, but when I was going to publish them last week I reread them and I kind of didn't like how I had developed them a bit fast and I lost a lot of things and ended up deleting them.

Also, I'm re-reading this novel to write down the important items so I don't forget them, since I didn't write them down and just kept remembering them in my head (like for example with Kung Peng's blood that I don't know how many drops our MC drank) xD

And over the weekend I started writing but I ran out of ideas and some inspiration, since I really don't want to fall into cliché, but I'm a newbie and I really don't know how the novel is going to develop, hahaha so let's keep together (those who are around here because I think some might have thought {if not most xd} that I abandoned the novel D:) and let's see how I develop this story.

* As always, excuse me for the mistakes and inconsistencies you might find in the reading xd, if you can help me mark them or suggest me ideas on how to word the sentences or so on, I'd appreciate it :D *
