Nubis and Jianchen failed to catch up to their opponents, while Huang Tianba did not continue to chase after the two fleeing Saint Rulers. Instead, he aimed his bow at Bi Hai and directly shot an arrow.
Swish!
The golden energy arrow turned into a streak of light and chased after Bi Hai with extreme speed. The arrow had completely locked onto Bi Hai's presence, so no matter how he changed directions, he was unable to shake off the arrow that was chasing after him.
Even though Bi Hai was very fast, he was unable to move faster than the energy arrow from the Ruler Armament. In just a few seconds, the golden energy arrow had caught up to him.
Seeing that he could not dodge, Bi Hai directly turned around and swatted at the energy arrow with his palm. Boundless energy surged out from his palm, causing the surrounding space to violently tremble, as if it was about to collapse from the pressure.
Bi Hai's palm strike was very powerful, but the Ruler Armament was left behind by a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler, so it was extremely powerful. Not to mention that the arrow had been shot out by Huang Tianba, who was at the same level as him. Its power was incomparable to the attack Huang Luan had shot out during the Mercenary Tournament, so it was not something that could be blocked so easily.
The golden energy arrow pierced through Bi Hai's energy attack like a hot knife through butter, and continued straight for Bi Hai's face without slowing down at all.
A sliver of surprise flashed through Bi Hai's eyes when he saw that. He could not help but cry out, "It's actually a Ruler Armament!" Although he was a little surprised, Bi Hai's movements were not slow. A one-meter-long, one-foot-wide broadsword appeared in his hand, and he swung it forward with lightning speed. Wherever the broadsword passed, a pitch-black fissure was cut open in the space.
Boom!
The sword and the golden energy arrow collided, erupting with a great boom. Violent ripples of energy wreaked havoc in the surroundings, filling the entire region and causing the surroundings to change color.
As Bi Hai did not possess a Ruler Armament, it was rather difficult for him to block the attack. Even though he was as powerful as the two Saint Rulers from the Hongfu clan, he was nowhere near as powerful as them when it came to forcefully blocking an attack from a Ruler Armament.
If he wanted to easily block an attack from a Ruler Armament, he would have to use a Ruler Armament of the same level unless he was far more powerful than the person wielding the weapon.
Bi Hai retreated a certain distance in a rather horrible manner. He stared at Huang Tianba, who was about to shoot a second arrow at him, and said nothing. He turned around and continued to flee into the distance.
"Where do you think you're going? Stay here!"
However, Bi Hai's delay allowed Jiede Tai to catch up. Jiede Tai aggressively blocked Bi Hai's path and swung his Saint Weapon at Bi Hai. He had been heavily injured by Bi Hai's palm strike earlier, and he was still holding a grudge over it.
Whoosh!
At the same time, Huang Tianba's second arrow was released. The golden energy arrow turned into a streak of golden light as it streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning.
Sensing the unimaginable speed of the arrow behind him, Bi Hai's expression turned serious. He dodged Jiede Tai's attack and reappeared a few thousand meters away. Boundless blue Saint Force surged out of his body as he shouted, "Traceless Water of Turquoise, Fourth Style: Peril Rebirth!"
Bi Hai's entire body was enveloped by the blue light, making it impossible to see his figure. From the outside, one could only see a ball of blue light floating in the air.
Whoosh! The golden energy arrow pierced through the blue circle and disappeared into the horizon. The blue circle slowly dissipated as well, but the people who were originally inside it had disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it, he actually escaped!" Jiede Tai gritted his teeth as he saw this scene. He was extremely unwilling to accept this outcome.
In the distance, Huang Tianba slowly lowered the longbow in his hand as he stared at the spot where Bi Hai had disappeared. He sighed, "What a miraculous escape technique. He actually managed to escape the lock-on of my Sun Moon Bow."
"It's a pity that we didn't manage to catch a single one of them." Nubis said regretfully. He then turned his head to look at Sky Sword who was still standing there with his hands behind his back. He knew that if the great elder of Mercenary City was willing to take action, none of those people would have been able to escape.
On the other side, Jianchen was completely stunned. He stared blankly in the direction where Bi Hai had disappeared in.
"Traceless Aqua, Traceless Aqua. Isn't that the battle technique passed down in the Bi family? How does that person know it?" Jianchen murmured softly as his expression became extremely complicated.
"The Traceless Aqua Battle Technique was created by the ancestor of the Bi family. It has a total of three layers. The first layer is a Human Tier Battle Technique, the second layer is an Earth Tier Battle Technique, and the third layer is a Heaven Tier Battle Technique. That old man actually used the fourth layer of the Traceless Aqua Battle Technique. Could it be, could it be …" Jianchen began to tremble as a thought that he did not dare to accept appeared in his head.
Suddenly, Jianchen turned his head and stared at Jiede Tai, Nubis, and the others. He asked loudly, "What is the name of that blue-robed Holy King?" Jianchen's voice was a little hurried.
Huang Tianba, Jiede Tai, and Nubis all stared at Jianchen strangely. They could not understand why Jianchen would suddenly become so emotional.
"He should be called Bi Hai. I heard the Dragon Tiger Sect's Holy King call him that," Jiede Tai said.
