Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Chapter 299 Bitten by a Fish



Chapter 299 Bitten by a Fish

"Damn brat..." The red-robed cultivator gritted his teeth, staring at Mo Ming with eyes full of resentment. However, his body was no longer able to move an inch.

Mo Ming sheathed the bronze demon-suppressing sword, glanced coldly at the red-robed cultivator, and then turned to look at the silver-armored youth.

"Now, you're the only one left."

The silver-armored youth sneered, and the spear in his hand trembled slightly, crackling with lightning.

"Interesting. It seems you're no ordinary survivor either," the silver-armored youth said slowly, his tone carrying a hint of fighting spirit.

"Enough talk, let's get started." Mo Ming's voice was calm, but a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

The two of them moved almost simultaneously.

The silver-armored youth's spear, like a thunderbolt, carried destructive power as it thrust straight at Mo Ming. Mo Ming's bronze demon-suppressing sword, however, transformed into a cold gleam, clashing with the spear.

"boom!"

The clash of sword and spear produced a deafening roar, distorting the surrounding air. The two figures separated at the moment of impact, then charged at each other again.

The silver-armored youth's spear moved with incredible speed, each strike carrying the power of lightning, as if it could tear the entire world apart. Mo Ming's swordsmanship, however, was even more agile, each strike precisely blocking the silver-armored youth's attack routes, and even catching him off guard with counterattacks.

The two fought for over a dozen rounds, leaving the surrounding ground riddled with holes from their attacks. Yet, they remained evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand.

The two clashed again, the clash of sword and spear like thunder and fire, the surging air waves kicking up clouds of dust.

Mo Ming stared coldly at the silver-armored youth, the bronze demon-suppressing sword in his hand trembling slightly, clearly ready to strike. The silver-armored youth, on the other hand, gripped his spear tightly, lightning flashing in his eyes, his fighting spirit burning even brighter.

Both of them knew very well that neither could truly gain the upper hand if things continued this way.

Mo Ming suddenly snorted coldly, stepped back, and flipped his right hand, revealing a crossbow bolt radiating a purple-gold light—the Shadow Chasing Purple-Gold Crossbow.

Mo Ming sneered, the crossbow bolt already aimed at the silver-armored youth's chest.

Upon seeing this, the silver-armored youth curled his lips into a cold smile. With a flick of his wrist, a round shield crackling with lightning patterns appeared in his left hand. The surface of the shield was covered with complex runes, faintly exuding a powerful aura.

"You think you can hurt me with this little gadget?" the silver-armored youth sneered, his gun and shield flashing with lightning at the same time.

Without a word, Mo Ming pulled the trigger. The golden crossbow bolt, like a shooting star, hurtled through the air with a piercing whistling sound, heading straight for the silver-armored youth. However, the silver-armored youth reacted extremely quickly, his round shield twisting sharply, deflecting the bolt's trajectory.

"Boom!" The crossbow bolt struck the ground and then exploded violently, creating a deep crater and sending dust flying.

"A shield that can deflect attacks?" Mo Ming was slightly surprised.

Mo Ming stared coldly at the silver-armored youth, a chill flashing in his eyes. The Shadow Chasing Purple-Gold Crossbow trembled slightly, and another silver-white arrow was automatically loaded into the mortise. This time, an eerie light flickered across the arrow, as if it were alive.

Mo Ming's lips curled into a slight smile as he sneered, "There's some substance to it!"

"Come on! I'd like to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!" the silver-armored youth roared, sweeping his spear horizontally. Lightning flashed like a violent storm, clearing away all the dust around him.

Mo Ming did not respond, but decisively pulled the trigger.

"Whoosh-"

The Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow shot out instantly, like a silver meteor, several times faster than the previous golden arrow.

Seeing this, the silver-armored youth immediately raised his round shield, attempting to deflect the arrow's trajectory again. However, the silver arrow, at the instant it made contact with the shield, strangely changed direction, bypassed the shield, and headed straight for the silver-armored youth's side.

"What!" The silver-armored youth was shocked and hurriedly dodged to the side, but the Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow followed him closely, locking onto his aura and giving him no chance to catch his breath.

"Damn thing!"

The silver-armored youth roared, his spear sweeping horizontally, unleashing a burst of lightning that deflected the Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow. However, the moment the arrow was knocked away, it reversed course and continued its pursuit of the silver-armored youth.

Mo Ming watched this scene coldly, his finger lightly on the trigger, seemingly ready to fire the next arrow at any moment.

"This arrow... it can actually track!" The silver-armored youth gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and transformed into a bolt of lightning, quickly creating distance. However, no matter how he dodged, the Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow relentlessly pursued him.

"boom!"

The silver-armored youth finally roared, plunging his spear into the ground. Lightning erupted instantly, shattering the Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow completely.

However, before he could catch his breath, he saw the Shadow Chasing Purple Gold Crossbow in Mo Ming's hand vibrate again. This time, more than a dozen arrows were loaded into the crossbow's groove at the same time.

"You think you're so good at dodging? Then try this." Mo Ming sneered, pulling the trigger.

"Thousands of arrows fired!"

"Whoosh whoosh—"

In an instant, more than a dozen arrows were fired at the same time, and then split into thousands of arrows. The gold and silver arrows intertwined and covered the sky and enveloped the silver-armored youth.

Each arrow carried immense energy; some exploding, others subtly locked onto the silver-armored youth's aura, leaving him nowhere to escape.

The silver-armored youth's expression changed drastically. His round shield trembled violently, unleashing a burst of lightning that transformed into a barrier, attempting to block the dense rain of arrows. However, the explosive golden arrows detonated violently the moment they touched the barrier, causing it to tremble precariously.

Taking advantage of the shockwave, the Soul-Chasing Silver Arrow pierced through the aftershocks of the explosion, aiming straight for the silver-armored youth's vitals.

"Damn it!" the silver-armored youth roared, his spear flashing like lightning as he barely managed to block the rain of arrows.

However, he was forced to retreat repeatedly under the onslaught, clearly at a significant disadvantage.

Mo Ming coldly watched all this, nocking the Shadow-Chasing Purple Gold Crossbow again, preparing to continue the attack. However, at this moment, his gaze suddenly sharpened as he sensed something amiss.

"Something's not right!" Mo Ming whispered.

Almost simultaneously, the silver-armored youth also sensed something, and his expression suddenly darkened.

A blurry figure darted out from the aftershocks of their battle, moving with astonishing speed towards the diamond resource box in the center of the battlefield. The figure moved with incredible speed, almost without pause, before storing the resource box in their storage space.

"Damn it!" Mo Ming and the silver-armored youth shouted almost simultaneously.

After succeeding, the figure rushed into the dense forest in the distance without looking back, moving so fast that only a blur could be seen.

"Damn it, someone actually took advantage of the chaos!" The silver-armored youth gritted his teeth in anger, his spear trembling and crackling with lightning, clearly enraged beyond measure.

Mo Ming snorted coldly, retracted the Shadow Chasing Purple Gold Crossbow, and with a flash, chased after them.

Damn it, after being a fisherman so many times, this time I actually got bitten by a fish?
