I alone am the Honoured One! - Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Who is this woman?
*treik* Zhao Tian frowned seeing the armor suit moving a little “There is actually someone inside the ice coffin?” He muttered and at this time he heard a faint noises in the silent room. *tlip*

Hm? As he gazed down he saw little drops of water dripping from the coffin. The ice is melting? He hurriedly looked over at the lid he pushed and saw a blue seal engraved on it.

Did I just undo the seal?

*THIRRSHHH* Suddenly a vibrant blue flame burst forth from the armor creating a powerful surge of Astral Energy that rippled through the air *thoom* throwing Zhao Tian away from the coffin as he was blasted on the floor.

“Urgh!” Zhao Tian groaned in a little pain as he saw the blue flames engulfing the armor suit. Fuck! Why am I hearing boss music?

*frissh* The blue flames quickly evaporated the ice and *thud* the armor suit tumbled down to the floor from the coffin. As it fell down, the helmet rolled off from its head.

Zhao Tian was taken aback when he laid eyes on the stunning woman before him., her white hair cascaded on the floor but her stunning face was filled with gruesome red scars.

*cough* *cough* The woman coughed as blue flames erupted from her mouth. Her delicate eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyelids revealing her sharp red eyes.

As she raised her gaze, Zhao Tian felt a speck of dread wash over him seeing her cold eyes. *fwish* In the next instant she stood up, her eyes sharp as a sword gleaming with a hint of madness within them.

*swish* A long blade appeared on the woman’s hand, her face emotionless and her eyes peering through Zhao Tian’s body.

*gasp* Zhao Tian’s eyes widened in shock as he felt his instincts screaming in fear of instant death. And he quickly crouched down as if dodging an attack and *sleek* *boom* a slash cut through the air.

Zhao Tian turned his head to look behind him and was met with the sight of a massive slash that had completely destroyed the wall, splitting it in two. What kind of abomination did I wake up?

Zhao Tian quickly stood up and looked at the woman standing there with a stoic face. He squinted his eyes to see through her cultivation but he couldn’t.

But what he found out was the insane heat emanating from her body and the irregular flow of Astral Energy in her body.

The insane heat must be from that blue flame but why is her Astral Energy irregular? She can’t even control her Astral energy?

*flick* As Zhao Tian blinked his eyes, she disappeared from her place and instinctively Zhao Tian moved to the left just in time *swoosh* as the woman appeared in front of him delivering a vertical slash.

The woman’s eyes moved towards Zhao Tian and she quickly swung the sword towards him. *clank* Reacting purely on instinct, Zhao Tian blocked the sword slash with the dagger in his hand.

*creeech* The screeching sound pierced through the air and Zhao Tian’s eyes dilated in utter shock as he saw her blade slicing through his dagger like butter and cleaving the dagger, as the blade slowly inched towards his wrist.

*keeccchh* Zhao Tian tried to pull back but it was already late as the blade sliced through his wrist and his hand flew from his arm landing on the ground.

“Shit!” Zhao Tian cursed in pain and using his Space ripple steps, he retreated some steps back. His eyes glanced at the cut-off wrist and the blood speeling out from his hand.

*shishsi* A faint sizzling noise was heard as yellow energy covered Zhao Tian’s wrist stopping the bleeding. It quickly began to heal as flesh and bones slowly began to grow from his wrist.

The reason people with light element are rare and sought is because they have incredible healing abilities and heal others with 50% of the efficiency of healing themselves.

“Haah!” Zhao Tian took a deep breath looking at the woman. This damn bitch is not in Monarch Astral Stage, she was surely a cultivator from the High Stars as he saw earlier how she cleaved the wall with just a single slash.

Huh? But as he thought of taking another sword he noticed the storage ring was not in his hand. He turned his eyes to his hand on the floor and saw the ring on its finger shining.

*flick* The ring disappeared and appeared on his left hand’s finger. ‘Let’s see if she can parry this sword. Other than that sword, this is the sword that I can wield which is Divine Tier’

A long black sword with a purple hilt appeared in his hands and his gaze sharpened. The woman stood there motionlessly, her eyes lingering on Zhao Tian. *woosh*

‘Here she comes!’ Zhao Tian couldn’t see her movements, he could only sense the irregular astral energy in her body and his instincts to fight her.

‘A horizontal slash!’ he muttered as he moved the sword into a defensive position *clank* The clash of metal echoed through the air as his sword met the woman’s sword head-on and the black sword withstood her sword.

*woosh* But the force behind her attack swirled Zhao Tian in the air as he blasted towards the wall. *swish* But Zhao Tian deftly maneuvered his body mid-air, managing to avoid a direct impact with the wall. Instead, he landed on the vertical surface, using his legs to absorb the impact and maintain his balance.

In the next second, he pushed himself from the wall as a spark of purple lightning crackled beneath his feet. He raised the sword attacking the woman and the woman took a defense posture for the first time.

With a sharp *clank* of their swords meeting, she skillfully deflected his strike, causing Zhao Tian to spring back two steps in response. He again took a quick glimpse at his sword and saw there were no scratches. So my sword is in the same tier as her?

Once again, Zhao Tian took the initiative to attack *flick* as he instantly appeared in front of her swinging his sword. *clank* That woman again parried his slash and *frisssh* a burst of ice blasted on her pushing the woman two steps back her armor struck with ice.

Zhao Tian’s eyes glowed and the ice quickly melted into water. he has control over both ice and water after all. “Taste this…” Zhao Tian muttered as a spark of red lightning appeared from his body.

*frisssh* A crackling sound filled the air as the red lightning struck her and as it fell on her armor drenched in water. *thriiisssshhhhh* The intense heat of the lightning coursed through her, causing searing pain as it burned her from the inside out.

The woman’s eyes widened in pain but she didn’t scream and *thud* kneeled on the floor. She raised her trembling hand placing it on her chest *cough* and coughed blue flames from her mouth.

Zhao Tian frowned seeing her reaction. He was sure that his attack was not lethal to a woman who has cultivation higher than Monarch Astral Stage then why was she on her knees?

He just wanted to do a surprise lightning attack and slash her with the sword. Something’s wrong with her.

*fwish* As the lightning dissipated hot smoke emerged from the woman’s body and she slowly rose to her feet her eyes locking on Zhao Tian.

*swish* Zhao Tian again dashed forward slashing his sword not giving her any time to attack first. *clank* *clank* *clank* He continued attacking her and keeping her in a defensive position not giving her time to counterattack.

As the woman raised her sword to parry his slash, *thrissh* a sudden burst of ice enveloped her legs immobilizing her. Using this opportunity, Zhao Tian crouched as he gave a kick to her chest.

*thud* The ice broke and she took a few steps back clutching her chest, her eyes quivering in pain. *cough* She again coughed blue flames and she glanced at the scattered shards of ice around her on the floor.

She took an ice piece and swallowed it. Eh? Zhao Tian was startled seeing her eating the raw ice. Don’t tell me the flames are not in her control or something?

*woosh* Zhao Tian again hurled towards her pointing his sword at her and the woman quickly dodged his piercing attack and slashed at him.

Zhao Tian raised his left arm as bait and in a split second, her sword mercilessly sliced through his arm with a resounding *sleesh* that echoed through the air.

Bearing the intense pain, he gave a swift kick on her abdomen sending her backward. With his powerful kick reverberating through her body, she instinctively clung to the sword for stability, desperately trying to maintain her balance.

Zhao Tian took a few steps back and saw his hand on the floor. “There it goes again…” he muttered, using his light energy to heal.

“Well, with that I can finally discern this woman’s little secret.” He muttered as he saw the woman visibly shaking in pain, her eyes trembling.

“Her sword skills and offense power are top-notch. If I get one clear slash, I am gone… but her body and defense are very weak. Just my kick is damaging her”

“It’s like stacking all your points on offense and the points in defense are zero.”

A smirk appeared on his lips “Now let’s dance! shall we?”
