Chapter 1663 - 1471: Searching for the Hidden Sect

"You little brat, you're just a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and you dare to make a move on me?" Big Beard was instantly furious upon seeing Ye Guichen daring to take the initiative against him.

He immediately abandoned Qin Ruoshui, turned his head with a swift motion, and swung the bronze hammer towards Ye Guichen.

The difference in realm made Big Beard have no fear of Ye Guichen.

To everyone, Ye Guichen was basically courting death.

Big Beard was a whole major realm higher than Ye Guichen; the gap between them was like a chasm. No matter how skilled Ye Guichen was, he would only end up being shattered by a single hammer blow.

However, in the next second, a scene that shocked everyone unfolded.

With just one slash of Ye Guichen's sword, he directly cut Big Beard's bronze hammer into four pieces.

But that wasn't all; after cutting it into four pieces, the momentum of the Immortal Slayer Sword did not wane, slicing towards the top of Big Beard's head.

Big Beard's pupils contracted, completely unprepared for Ye Guichen to pose a threat to him.

He instinctively moved his feet.

At this moment, the difference in realms was evident again.

After all, Big Beard was a master at the Divinity Transformation Realm. If he wanted to escape, Ye Guichen had no way to kill him on the spot.

But even so, Big Beard still had an arm cut off by Ye Guichen.

"Ah..." Big Beard let out a miserable cry.

He held only half of the bronze hammer in his hand, his eyes glaring like copper bells, staring intensely at Ye Guichen, filled with venomous hatred.

"Boy, you dare to hurt me! Alright then, today, if I don't kill you, I'm not a man!"

As the words fell, Big Beard let out a fierce roar, and as he stomped his foot, formations began to rise from beneath him.

"All things grow!"

Big Beard roared, and peculiar powers surged from the formations.

Those powers swiftly intertwined around Big Beard's severed arm, restoring it in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, Big Beard took out a fishing rod from his storage ring.

That fishing rod was astonishingly at the level of an Immortal Artifact.

"That, that's an Immortal-grade fishing rod?"

"Oh my god, I never thought he would have something like this, now we're doomed."

"What do we do, what do we do now?"

Many people, seeing Ye Guichen unexpectedly severing one of Big Beard's arms, originally thought they were saved this time.

But seeing Big Beard take out an Immortal-grade fishing rod, they fell into panic once more.

Even if you could buy such an Immortal Artifact, it still wouldn't necessarily be effective.

Because the higher the grade of the weapon, the more powerful strength it requires to wield.

This fishing rod, since it can deal with beasts in the Chaos Sea, can naturally also be used as a weapon.

But an ordinary person, even with an Immortal-grade fishing rod, would likely be drained of all their True Qi after just one use.

Under these circumstances, before the enemy could make a move, you would likely die from Qi depletion.

The result would simply be not worth it.

But judging by Big Beard's appearance, he seemed capable of wielding such an Immortal-grade fishing rod.

If that's the case, then even if Ye Guichen were an Immortal, he probably wouldn't escape.

After all, an Immortal Artifact is truly a weapon that can kill an Immortal.

Ye Guichen's cultivation was only at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, still a step away from the Divinity Transformation Realm.

In this case, he would likely be at the mercy of Big Beard.

The crowd gasped in shock.

Qin Ruoshui, too, finally regained her composure.

She gave Ye Guichen a deep look, never expecting this guy to come to her rescue and even sever one of Big Beard's arms.

But now, if Ye Guichen were to fight Big Beard, it would surely lead to a dead end.

"I'll help you!"

Qin Ruoshui hesitated slightly, then quickly stood beside Ye Guichen.

Black Dragon, on the other hand, crossed his arms with interest, still not showing any intention of helping.

Ye Guichen gnashed his teeth in frustration.

Even though his Immortal Slayer Sword was also an Immortal Artifact, it had not yet fully exerted its power.

There was still a difference compared to Big Beard's fishing rod.

"Kid, you insist on seeking death, then let me show you my might!" Big Beard sneered, suddenly swinging the fishing rod out.

The fishing line moved as if imbued with life, spiraling rapidly towards Ye Guichen.

"Dodge quickly, don't let those lines touch you, or it's the end!" Qin Ruoshui shouted.

But being an Immortal Artifact, it's not that easy to avoid.

It's like the difference between using a dagger versus a gun.

With a dagger, if you're fast enough, you might dodge.

But with a gun, can your speed surpass a bullet?

The difference in weaponry can completely overwhelm any advantage in skill.

A child with a gun can easily take down a strong man.

Similarly, the Immortal-grade fishing rod in Big Beard's hand can naturally easily kill Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen also felt immense pressure.

The surroundings seemed to be shrouded in countless densely packed fishing lines.

Moreover, these lines were not ordinary; each was wrapped in golden silkworm silk.

Once entangled, it would be nearly impossible to escape, no matter how great one's abilities.

"Thousand Swords! Unleash!"

Without a second thought, Ye Guichen summoned a thousand swords.

The thousand swords formed a Sword Array, shielding him like a protective barrier.

However, the fishing lines quickly entangled with the Sword Array, creating a creaking sound.

"Huh?" Big Beard was surprised to see the fishing line not immediately slicing through Ye Guichen's Sword Array.

In his understanding, this was an Immortal Artifact after all.

Any sword below the Immortal grade should be cut apart upon contact with these fishing lines.
