The other three women had already activated their silver needles in the moment Chen Shi made his move. Each thin silver needle, delicate as cow hair, flew straight toward Chen Shi.
The needle technique they used was specially designed to counteract body-protecting spells like the "Golden Body", called the Weaver Embroidery Dragon Map. It was a secret technique not passed outside the Gao Family.
The young master was very close to the Gao Family, requested this technique from them, and then passed it on to them.
The Weaver Embroidery Dragon Map was originally created by court weavers to embroider the Dragon Robe. It was actually a type of embroidery needle technique, with dense and seamless stitches, and later evolved into a spell.
Such a needle technique, combined with the silver needles crafted by skilled craftsmen at the young master’s request, had its power doubled and its speed increased!
All three women were in the Nascent Soul Realm, possessing higher cultivation levels than Chen Shi, coupled with their specialized weapons effective against Chen Shi’s physical body, they were invincible.
However, what their silver needles had struck was only an afterimage left behind by Chen Shi.
Chen Shi was too fast.
So fast that with a single step forward leaving a residual image behind, he arrived right in front of them!
Not within the two zhang (6.6 meters) the young master had mentioned, but beyond two zhang!
The young master’s judgment was wrong!
His judgment was based on Chen Shi’s cultivation being at the seventh turn of the Golden Core, but Chen Shi had progressed from the seventh turn of the Golden Core to the ninth turn in a short period!
Not only that, but his refinement of the Eight Golden Gates had also elevated his physical body to a level close to that of a Taoist Body!
A wrong judgment could lead to death.
In the blink of an eye, two were killed by Chen Shi’s hands!
Those twenty-seven silver needles flew past, with four of them striking the pillars of the corridor, passing between them, causing the pillars to crack open, with countless splinters flying around.
Six of the needles hit the ground, creating six deep pits several feet deep.
The three women were not flustered, their hands forming Sword gestures, maneuvering the silver needles. Although their initial strikes missed, the needles were still stable. Various talismans on the needles were activated, and the thin needles moved swiftly through the air without making a sound.
They were like Heavenly Girls spinning for the immortals, and Chen Shi was the garment they aimed to weave.
However, the Weaver stitched garments, while they aimed to pierce Chen Shi full of holes!
If given a chance, they could kill Chen Shi.
But the opportunity just passed too quickly for them to grasp.
At the same time as the silver needles from the second woman on the left flew out, Chen Shi was already at her side. The thigh that whizzed past compressed her Qi-Blood, forcing it away from her eyes, turning her vision black, seeing nothing.
But she could feel Chen Shi’s thigh rapidly slicing open her Nascent Soul energy field. This was a sensation, not actual sight, yet incredibly distinct!
She heard the thunderous sound of wind sweeping by, intended to dodge, her body started to react, but that leg was too fast, much faster than any spell she had ever encountered, cutting like an executioner’s fatal blade.
Her throat was struck by an odd object, then her brain violently trembled, and she soon felt her body being pierced by numerous tiny foreign objects.
Those were silver needles summoned by the other two women.
A thought flashed through her mind; these two foolish women must have been too eager to kill Chen Shi, so they didn’t retract their needles in time, leading them to hit her. Once they had been comrades, yet they stabbed her in the back at her death, merely fair-weather sisters. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
She felt nothing as the silver needles passed through her Nascent Soul energy field which turned out to be the terrifying part—the Nascent Soul energy field could not affect the silver needles.
Moreover, there were many of them, and as they passed through her body, the forty-six different talismans carved on the needles unleashed their power!
Suddenly, eighteen blood holes appeared behind her, each as large as a bowl, connecting in a pattern that caused her back ribs and shoulder bones to explode, her internal organs thoroughly shattered!
She was an expert in the Nascent Soul Realm, and her body had been refined through the stages of the Golden Core and Nascent Soul, this was why she wasn’t blown to bits. Otherwise, even a single needle had the power to reduce her to dust!
However, she no longer felt any pain, as Chen Shi’s leg sweeping at her throat had broken her neck, nearly decapitating her.
At that moment, she was already dead.
The strange thoughts emerging were merely the chaotic last moments of consciousness before brain death.
As those eighteen silver needles pierced the second woman on the left, they immediately stopped and shot backward!
Now only two women remained on the right side, second and third, both reacting swiftly. However, Chen Shi was faster. The moment he killed the second woman on the left with a kick, his figure had already moved from its original position, rushing towards the third on the right, causing their needles to miss.
The third woman on the right retreated rapidly, faced with Chen Shi’s right sleeve that suddenly seemed to swell immensely, as if capable of devouring the heavens!
Despite her rapid retreat, Chen Shi’s spell was exquisitely executed, leaving her no choice but to fall into the sleeve of his robe.
