Apotheosis

Chapter 3100 Nine Edges Weapon Refining Array

Zen wasn't really acting too quickly, from the perspective of Alfie, Rupert, and the others.

In fact, the speed of him launching every strike was very slow as each strike took about three seconds.

But Zen was focused on accuracy over speed. Not a single one of his strikes missed its intended target.

His precision was almost inhuman in its mechanical perfection. Every strike was launched in the same way, with the same force, as if Zen was a robot programmed to repeat the exact same movement over and over again.

Everyone was surprised, and very impressed, by Zen's astonishing aim and efficiency.

The Sharp-winged Sun Crows fell before his strikes, one after another, like dominoes.

In less than half a minute, Zen had killed ten Sharp-winged Sun Crows.

They were intelligent creatures, at least as smart as the average human being.

The Sharp-winged Sun Crows couldn't fail to notice that they were gaining no ground. The loss of ten companions scared the remaining crows.

They communicated with each other in a series of furious quacks.

Finally, they seemed to come to an agreement. Quacking, the rest of the Sharp-winged Sun Crows rose, turned, and fled the scene.

The crowd watched the crows leave. They had been panicking when the Sharp-winged Sun Crows attacked them, but as soon as they were gone, they all turned to look at Zen as though he was a freak.

Many stared at him with awe and shock, processing what he had just done.

From atop the city wall, armed only with his sword, he had fended off the crows.

Every movement had been carefully calculated. Not only had he hit every crow he aimed at, none of the bodies fell within the boundaries of the wall. Zen had killed each one before it could enter the city limits.

"Zen, how did you do that?" Alfie asked, staring wonderingly at Zen.

Zen spun his long sword a few times, then, with a flash of light, sheathed it in his space ring. He smiled. "The important thing is to keep your focus. They're very fast, but they can be stopped if one acts with care as well as speed."

Sure, that sounded simple enough. But no one believed what he had just said.

Rupert's eyes flashed at Zen. "Just focus? Your performance just now was reminiscent of the martial skill of the Flow Sword Sect!"

"The Flow Sword Sect?" Zen raised his eyebrows, looking thoughtful.

After his battle with the young man named Milo, he had done extensive research on the Flow Strike.

He had found that the Flow Strike was similar in many ways to the Emotion Closing Godly Way. If he had the chance, he thought he would like to practice the Flow Strike too.

Rupert glared at him. "Yes! It's said that the martial skill of the Flow Sword Sect transforms the cultivators themselves, and anything they wield, into powerful swords. Each movement is skillful and instinctive, allowing warriors to enact feats of great power and stren

major battle. Despite this, Rupert and the others decided not to leave the wall, and they sat in meditation to cultivate.

Gant, meanwhile, had been heartened by the news that they could leave the wall temporarily. He went to Zen. "Flag Master, I want to go and see Eira."

He knew there was a chance that Eira was already dead, but he had vowed not to give up until he saw her for himself.

Zen patted him on the shoulder. "Okay, we'll go together."

They left the wall, and traveled through the southern districts of the city. Every area they saw was a mess, littered with rubble and corpses.

Dead crows could be seen everywhere on the ground. Their feathers littered the roofs and streets. Some of the Sharp-winged Sun Crows were actually a vivid red in color, as large as an average man; and these strong and intelligent three-legged crows were perhaps the main fighting force of the Sun Crow race.

Fortunately, these red crows did not attack the south of the city this morning.

Despite this, the crows had still managed to do a lot of damage. The cries of women and children could be heard among the ruins. In their determination to reach the four large arrays, the Sun Crow race had wreaked great havoc in Blue Cloud City. Not only guards but civilians had died in the battle.

As they passed through, seeing people grieving and suffering, Zen frowned.

Wars between different races were somehow more brutal than wars among different groups of human beings. In this kind of war, there was no mercy, no communication or empathy. There were only battles that led to death and devastation.

As Zen and Gant had made their way to the center of the city, something strange happened. Several beams of green light suddenly appeared ahead of them, emitting a strong aura of energy.

Gant's face was bathed in the green glow of the light. "It's the Nine Edges Weapon Refining Array of our Su Clan," he said definitively.
