Although Chi Xue and the others had seen experts at the quasi-Sage eighth rank—Feng Lingzi and the Young Leader, for example—they had always considered people at that level incredibly powerful. Still, they thought that two or three hundred super experts, along with a great many Universe Flying Saucers and super main cannons, could easily kill one with concentrated fire. But that had only been their own assumption. Only after fighting a genuine quasi-Sage eighth-rank expert did they truly understand how powerful such a being was—so powerful that even after several rounds of concentrated attacks, they had failed to kill him, and had only inflicted minor injuries.
The most troublesome thing was that this quasi-Sage eighth-rank Heavenly Slave had used a terrifying secret art to destroy the formation around him. Now his movements were no longer restricted. Although he couldn't approach his targets under the barrage of attacks, Chi Xue and the others still found it difficult to lock onto him. Even when they managed to concentrate their fire, he could withstand it with his powerful protective astral energy.
That's right: this quasi-Sage eighth-rank Heavenly Slave had mastered powerful protective astral energy, a defensive secret art similar to Xuan Ci's Gold Edge Armor. But with his incomparably pure and abundant Divine Yuan Power, the art's defensive power was even more terrifying. He could even withstand the powerful arrow techniques of quasi-Sage seventh-rank cultivators.
It had to be said that Chi Xue and the others were far less accomplished in arrow techniques than Ling Tian and his group. If they had reached Ling Tian's level, at least thirty percent of their attacks would have hit their target. Then, even with his powerful protective astral energy, this Heavenly Slave would have been overwhelmed and killed.
It made sense. What good was it that
