Chapter 126 The Hong Clan Patriarch's Star Artifact
[With his sword star artifact in hand, the Hong Clan patriarch pointed his sword at you. "As long as I am here, I won't let you destroy the Hong Clan. Leave now and I will forget that you trespassed into our Hong Clan's lands."]
[In response to the Hong Clan patriarch's words, you released your astral pressure and took out the Nine-Colored Cosmic Sword. Afterward, you used your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent and disappeared out of sight. The Hong Clan patriarch was astonished to discover that he couldn't detect your presence and couldn't locate you!]
[But when you were about to behead the Hong Clan patriarch as you appeared behind him, the Hong Clan patriarch seemed to have detected not your presence nor your appearance but the danger of your attack. Because of that, the Hong Clan patriarch attempted to evade your sword slash.]
[When the Hong Clan patriarch attempted to evade your attack, you used your Lock On (Gold) talent and locked your sword slash towards the neck of the Hong Clan patriarch. The Hong Clan patriarch was left with no choice but to parry your attack with his sword star artifact.]
[There was one fatal flaw in your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent and that was none other than only your presence and appearance was concealed. If you don't attack, you won't be able to expose that flaw.]
[Your Nine-Colored Cosmic Sword was indeed hidden since it was included in the scope of concealment provided by your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent. However, any projectile attacks weren't concealed by that talent of yours.]
[Not to mention, those with honed instincts in battle would be able to perceive danger around them so if you attacked them, even if they couldn't sense your presence, they could sense the danger of your attack.] nove-lB/In
[Your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent was only suited for concealment and escaping from your pursuers but it wasn't that suited for assassination or in battle. Furthermore, your attacks would undoubtedly disturb the air and the surrounding space which could be used as a method for your opponents to detect your attacks.]
[Even if you move around, you couldn't be detected by detecting the air and surrounding space since your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent had perfectly concealed your presence and appearance as if you weren't there. But that wasn't the case for your attacks that had escaped the scope of range from your talent's concealment.]
[Due to that, the Hong Clan patriarch was able to perceive the danger of your attack as well as your sword slash. However, your Lock On (Gold) talent had prevented the Hong Clan patriarch from evading your attack but since you didn't use your full power in your attack, the Hong Clan patriarch successfully parried your sword attack.]
[You didn't use your full-powered attack since you were testing the limits of your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent. Now that you have tested its limits, you decided to kill the Hong Clan patriarch as soon as possible so that you wouldn't have to waste your time.]
[When you were about to attack the Hong Clan patriarch again, the clan elders of the Hong Clan came out of seclusion especially the Grand Elder. Most of the clan elders were at Revered Constellation while only a few were at the later levels of Honored Star.]
[There were a total of 6 Revered Constellation elders and three of those six were already controlled by you since they had previously been sent as the three protectors of Hong De. In addition to that, three clan elders were at Honored Star.]
[The Grand Elder was a Level 98 Revered Constellation so there were now 4 additional Revered Constellation powerhouses besieging you since the other three were under your control. As for the other three clan elders, they weren't worth mentioning since you can easily be an Honored Star with just your thoughts alone.]
[But you didn't want to kill them since it would be a waste to kill a Revered Constellation powerhouse especially when you could convert them into your loyal puppets. Intending to keep them alive, you split Avatar 1 from your body using your Trinity (Red) talent.]
[You let Avatar 1 equip your Dimensional Mirror as well as your absolute mind superpower. Afterward, Avatar 1 used his Dimensional Mirror to forcefully bring all of the clan elders as well as the Grand Elder inside the mirror dimension, leaving only you and the clan patriarch on the battlefield.]
[The Hong Clan patriarch was surprised by your unusual skill since he had never seen anything like it before. He had expected that the support from the Grand Elder and the clan elders would allow him to make the battle between you and him a lot more favorable for his side but he realized that his plan had backfired.]
[And since the Grand Elder and the clan elders were the backbone of the Hong Clan aside from him, then the Hong Clan patriarch was the only one who could defend the Hong Clan from a Revered Constellation star master's attack.]
[The Hong Clan patriarch didn't know whether the Grand Elder and the clan elders were still alive or not but he did know that he had to end the battle as soon as possible. The clan patriarch released the full power of his star artifact!]
[A fiery glow was released from his sword as the scorching temperature devastated the lands below him. The Hong Clan patriarch's star artifact was none other than the Scorching Sun Sword!]
[Although his Scorching Sun Sword was only a top-grade star artifact, it was already the peak of a top-grade star artifact to the point that it's almost comparable to a god-grade star artifact.]
[The clan patriarch's Scorching Sun Sword was a double-edged weapon as it also devastated his surroundings but the clan patriarch wasn't worried. After all, the reason why the Grand Elder and the clan elders were delayed in supporting him was due to evacuating the members of the Hong Clan.]
[The members of the Hong Clan might not have evacuated that far, but it was already enough for the Hong Clan patriarch to go all out against you!]
