Chapter 269 CHAPTER 268: Summoning Praswapastra Arrow!!
"Ah, he is an archer! Heehee, this is my first time seeing someone using a longbow other than those from the Great Gong Clan. Interesting! Interesting!" Martial Uncle Xi Xuan exclaimed on seeing a colorful longbow appearing on Joey's hand. Almost most cultivators who were weapon-based users rarely used bows as their weapons. So seeing a bow user outside of the Great Gong Clan really piqued a great interest in him.
Same goes for the Song Daren, as this was also his first time meeting a bow user apart from those from the Great Gong Clan.
"Eh! " Both of them saw Joey's index finger burned out by a strange white color flame. They looked at each other and then glanced over at Joey again.
They saw Joey raise his crippled right hand and heard him chanting in Sanskrit with a strange voice, as if the voice was not really coming out of his vocal chords but from something transcendental that they got a glimpse of but failed to recognize it. It sounded like the amalgamation of all the sweetest voices in the world, but also the slight wailing sound of ghosts at the same time.
Joey finally finished and shouted, "Agni Astra[1], come forth!" The next moment a red color arrow materialized in his hand. He put it on the bowstring, tugged them together, aimed at the incoming silver-white giant fist, and released the red arrow with a twang sound of the string as it kept ringing afterward until the red arrow turned into a mass of red fireball and hit on the giant fist.
Boom! Boom! Boom!....
The silver-white giant fist exploded the moment the red arrow, which was covered by a thick red fireball around it made hit it with a continuous ear-piercing sound of booms. It turned into multiple specks of silver-white essence qi and slowly vanished into the air.
Everyone around there, especially those from the Undefeatable Vajra Clan were all shocked by the current course of events. As they knew how powerful and durable the Greater Vajra Punch was.
Joey then again chanted another mantra in Sanskrit and shouted, "Praswapastra[2], come forth!!" An illusionary rainbow color arrow materialized in his hand. He then shot it directly into the sky. The illusionary rainbow colors arrow flew up and stopped levitating in the air.
Everyone looked at the arrow, but the next moment, they all entered a sleeplike state except for the hunched back old man, Xi Xuan. They all stood still like before.
Chun Churan was also fine too, as it did not affect her as she stood beside Joey.
Joey looked around and said with a smile, looking at Chun Churan, "I don't really like to use this skill. It is draining so much of my Yogic Yang essence qi. But what can I do as you insist on me to slap these experts?" He then trotted around Chun Churan.
"Do you mind doing it yourself?" Joey asked.
"Nah, you do it!" Chun Churan responded while chuckling, "Brother Joey, I have a doubt. What is this skill of yours? Heehee, with this basically you don't need to be afraid of anyone, right?"
"Wrong, this Praswapastra arrow is not at all invincible, as you say. In fact, it is the weakest among the celestial weapons that I know of." he then corrected himself while speaking briskly, "Umm, I shall not exactly say it is weak either as every weapon has its own strong point and weak point. But this arrow could not even inflict a single wound on enemies. It could only make my opponents fall asleep on the battlefield under some conditions." He then signaled her with his eyes toward the hunch back old man and muttered under his breath, "See that man! My arrow does not affect him."
Chun Churan saw the old man observing them curiously. She frowned slightly.
"Don't mind him. He is just curious about us. I don't sense any animosity from him." Joey said.
Chun Churan turned at him and asked again," Brother Joey, under what conditions does this arrow of your work?"
"Actually, this arrow is just an imperfect version of the real Praswapastra skill, as it is forbidden to use the real one, anyway." he then further explained, "This arrow could only make those who were weak mentally or when they were shocked. But it will never work on those super experts that cultivate their mind and soul. It will also not work for those in higher realms."
"Heehee, I understand now." "Brother Joey, you are really quick-witted. First, you awed them completely by breaking their whatever giant silver white fist they were all so proud of so easily, with no effort, rendering everyone here in a total shock. After that, you use this arrow to take advantage of them, making them all sleep." Chun Churan chuckled and praised him.
"Now, do you want to do the honor? That old man will be our our soul witness too." Joey asked again.
"Fine, I will slap all of them once." She agreed while caressing her hands.
Slap! Slap! Slap!....
Soon, 16 sounds of slaps could be heard.
"Sister Chun Churan, hah, you are a kind-hearted person, after all. What you are doing is not at all a slapping." Joey took a step and appeared beside a cultivator. "See this and learn from me." He then concentrated the yogic yang qi inside his body in his right palm and gave a tight slap on the face of the cultivator from the Undefeatable Vajra Body Clan.
Slap!
A loud slapping sound was produced, while all the small birds that remain in the trees around there flew away in fright.
After that, Chun Churan saw the man sent flying in the air making a trail of red mist from his mouth along with all of his teeth flying everywhere randomly.
Slap! Slap! Slap!....
Soon another 14 similar sounds were produced, sending all the fourteen robust men from the Undefeatable Vajra Body clan in the air in the similar fashion as before, followed by a slightly milder slapping sound when it came, the turn of the elder.
"Hmm, this guy has such a strong bone!" "Heehee, that means you will suffer more!" Joey was surprised first but replaced quickly by a wide grin.
