I Am Loaded with Passive Skills - Chapter 3319

Chapter 3319: Chapter 1666: Unpredictable Feng Zhongzui, Tactical Defection to the Enemy Sword Deity Bei

“Dead, dead?”

Everyone in front of the Five Domains Preaching Mirror was dumbfounded by this sudden and dramatic turn of events.

In the blink of an eye, Lord Shou of the Southern Region was still shouting, and then Lord Shou on Sacred Mountain Gui Zhe was shot to pieces by Lord Cang Sheng?

“That fast?”

“Impossible, right? He had become so big!”

“I think Lord Shou revealed a flaw intentionally… He wanted to use a strategy to make this fake body disappear. There must be a deep meaning behind it!”

“I beg to differ; if you youngsters had seen the War of the Ten High Nobles, you wouldn’t speak thus.”

“How so?”

“Revealing a flaw is based on the assumption that both parties are of equal strength and neither exceeds the other by much. Once the gap is significant or both attacks are too powerful, whoever reveals a flaw first, be it unintentional or deliberate, and gets caught, will die.”

“By saying that, I had once seen from afar at the God Executioner’s Ruins a battle worthy of the gods, where arrows rained like a torrent, impenetrable, with a level of intensity far surpassing what we see now. After all, Lord Cang Sheng did take into account the life and death of the Central Region… At that time, even The Divine did not dare to ‘reveal a flaw’.”

“Indeed, revealing a flaw is akin to conceding the first move, which means death for the one who concedes.”

“So, looking at it this way, Lord Shou…”

All eyes turned to Lord Shou in the Southern Region Preaching Mirror, who appeared completely stunned, as if the arrow had left him in disbelief as well.

If it were someone else, everyone could discern something from this reaction at a glance.

But this is Lord Shou!

This guy’s unfathomable nature is almost on par with Hallmaster Dao’s; who knows whether he was truly scared witless or just pretending?

…

“Jin Ren, another loss for us?”

In fact, Xu Xiaoshou’s first reaction was indeed hard to suppress.

He was genuinely shocked by the Broken Wing Arrow.

It wasn’t by design.

It wasn’t anything else.

It was just a pure instant kill upon exposure!

How fast was that arrow?

So fast that Jin Ren could only subconsciously use a few of his original form’s usual life-saving techniques like “Ultimate Giant,” “Moment of Enlightenment,” and “Independence,” and then they were gone.

Other techniques such as “Acalanātha,” “take the easy way out,” “Vanishing Technique”…

They couldn’t even be activated before being interrupted by the power of the evil god piercing through his body.

Finally, hit by the strongest arrow from the sky without even going through his past lives’ usual “deathbed flashback” and “last words” rituals, he died immediately.

Soul, intent, all completely erased!

Clean, smooth, seamless!

“Gulp.”

Xu Xiaoshou swallowed hard, and once again the voice of Li Fugui echoed in his mind.

The complete form of the Ten High Nobles…

And unlike Dao Qiongcang, who is of the intellect type, nor like Kui Leihan or Bazhun’an, restricted by their combat strength.

This one, never seen before.

No!

In fact, seen before!

The fragmented half of the sacred mountain shot to pieces by that arrow, wasn’t it just like the Cursed Yin body crumbling under the same force as the Divine Overlord Stick’s blow?

“This output…”

“This speed…”

Was the Super Taoization Intent Dao Disc not quick enough in response? Was the passive enhancement following the first and second awakenings of his passive skills not strong enough?

The answer is none of the above!

The mistake was not on Jin Ren’s part.

The root of the problem lay in Ai Cangsheng’s combat consciousness.

“This guy, from the start, his focus was not on me in the Southern Region, but on Jin Ren.”

“He already caught on to Jin Ren’s ‘habit’ of activating Independence, found the flaw, and in one fell swoop shattered him?”

How could an arrow that could turn back be without premeditation?

Xu Xiaoshou no longer dared to assume that Ai Gou’s arrows could not hit him.

In terms of his understanding of Third Realm Combat Consciousness in past battles, it was limited to everyone having fast reaction speeds.

Even Dao Qiongcang, not transcending, still relied on calculations and strategizing to solve problems.

But in the case of Ai Cangsheng, Xu Xiaoshou realized that combat consciousness is not synonymous with reaction speed alone.

Could even the habit of using spiritual techniques become fatal once exposed?!

“I was reckless…”

“No, it was Jin Ren who was reckless. Without the Shattered Shield, how could he dare let down his guard?”

Xu Xiaoshou recollected carefully and found that Jin Ren deserved his death, but it was a death of value, for it had alerted him.

He had made up his mind beforehand not to confront Ai Cangsheng directly.

But now, he found that even if he did not intend to battle him, would Ai Cangsheng not insist on confronting him by force?

If they really encountered each other unavoidably and Ai Cangsheng knew him through and through, what about himself?

Besides the Evil Sin Bow, he was utterly clueless about Ai Cangsheng’s combat methods, techniques, and habits!

“Whose guidance is this?”

Xu Xiaoshou was somewhat frightened, was it overconfidence? Upon comparing it with the stab of Divine Overlord’s stick, he had little faith in his ability to catch it unless Shield Treasure was reliable.

With this in mind, how could he underestimate Ai Cangsheng who could trigger a battle worthy of the gods?

Xu Xiaoshou quickly communicated with Li Fugui, asking him for detailed information about Ai Gou, mainly to find out if Ai Gou could use techniques that would increase strength such as Six Paths or Four Sacrifice.

At the same time, he unreservedly reached out to Dao Qiongcang through the Spirit Rhinoceros Technique to request a brief on Ai Cangsheng’s information, though not sure if he would get it.

Yet he couldn’t show timidity; the plan still had to go on.

He refreshed himself, blinked his eyes, patted the mirror, and addressed the people across the five regions:

“Impressive, Ai Gou, you’ve somewhat exceeded my expect… no, you now match my expectations of the Ten High Nobles’ head-on combat power.”

“I have to mention, the way you missed me earlier was really embarrassing; you needed me to give you a flaw to work with.”

“But is this everything I have, just this much?”

Xu Xiaoshou turned around, with his back to the mirror, gesturing towards Huitian Peak as if he was facing Sacred Mountain Gui Zhe:
