234: Chapter 234 The Killing Sound Blade, the Jade Flute Embryo

"Not bad, it's a Sound Blade!"

The moment he turned around, he finally saw clearly what was attacking him.

It was a blood-colored Sound Blade filled with slaughter, containing terrifying power; the blade was so sharp that it could actually inflict wounds on his body.

How terrifying was such an unpredictable attack?

One must know that his body had been tempered a thousand times and possessed extremely strong defensive power; from this, one could catch a glimpse of how horrific this Sound Blade was.

He was incredibly surprised in his heart, even though the Elder of Sound Valley had repeatedly warned him earlier.

Entering the inner Qin Realm would be dangerous, and one might even lose their life within; who would have thought he would be attacked immediately upon entering?

This was truly a show of force right at the start.

Having experienced the sneak attack from the Sound Blade, his vigilance increased; the moment he made a move to block just now, he sensed the toughness of that power.

It was definitely not inferior to the full-strength strike of a Nine-Star Dou Ling; he had even suffered a small setback due to his hurried response.

If it were someone else, the previous attack would have left them heavily injured or even dead.

Battle intent rose in his heart, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes as he looked toward the direction where the Sound Blade had appeared.

The mist dispersed, revealing piles of rubble and withered trees growing in a chaotic mess.

On a stone platform ahead, a beautiful woman held a jade flute in her delicate hand, a dense killing intent appearing on her pretty face.

When she saw Hun Tiandi, it was as if she were looking at a mortal enemy she wished to exterminate.

"Who are you? Why did you attack me?"

Hun Tiandi furrowed his brows, alert. If he remembered correctly, there was no such woman when they entered the inner Qin Realm earlier; they had never met.

Now, she looked as if she were seeing the enemy who had wiped out her entire family; such was the danger of the Qin Realm.

"Those who trespass into the Qin Realm... die!"

The woman opened her crimson eyes and stared fixedly at Hun Tiandi, spitting out those words like a cold weapon.

Wail...

Speaking coldly, she placed the Yu Xiao against her red lips; a shrill, resentful flute sound, filled with the sounds of slaughter, rang out continuously from the spring-like notes.

Three blood-colored Sound Blades erupted from the jade flute, arranged in a triangular formation.

In an instant, they pounced toward Hun Tiandi to kill him, the sharp killing intent emitted by the Sound Blades faintly locking down the surrounding space.

It gave one the feeling of being trapped, making it difficult to resist and tempting one to simply surrender.

As soon as the jade flute sounded, the surrounding air became silent and solemn, permeated by the aura of slaughter.

"Hmph, if you want to kill me, you'll have to pay with your life. Women have no special privileges under my blade. If I don't want to die, no one can kill me!"

Seeing that the woman was showing no mercy, Hun Tiandi gave a cold snort like thunder; his eyes instantly turned frigid as he reached out and drew the emperor-slaying blade.

The slender blade, weighing no less than several hundred catties in his hand, flickered with strands of cold light.

This was a personal weapon forged by Hun Tiandi.

He circulated the powerful Thunder Emperor Art, pouring lightning Dou Qi into the blade; he flipped his hand and slashed out horizontally, an indomitable aura erupting as the long blade in his hand moved.

Buzz!

This strike was extraordinarily sharp; with his own incredibly powerful strength and speed like lightning, he drew a lightning blade-light in front of him, slashing horizontally against the Sound Blades.

Bang!

The Sound Blades were sharp, condensed from the jade flute's sonic waves and filled with surging power; however, under Hun Tiandi's forceful counterattack...

The lightning blade-light of extreme Yang and slaughter forcibly shattered them, and in the blink of an eye, they exploded.

Kill...

Hun Tiandi's battle cry surged as he shouted and struck with his blade without stopping; with a flick of his wrist, he followed through to strike the second Sound Blade.

His footwork shifted, the blade following the man, as he delivered another slash.

Lightning Dou Qi surged out, and blade-glow erupted from the tip, pulverizing the final Sound Blade.

Having broken through three Sound Blades, his footsteps did not stop; he took several steps in succession, leaving a deep pit in the ground as dense cracks appeared.

Like a spiderweb, they continued to spread.

Slash!

Hun Tiandi showed no mercy with his blade; several lightning blade-lights erupted, blasting toward the woman as his aura reached its peak.

His eyes were filled with endless coldness.

After breaking the three Sound Blades, Hun Tiandi's blade-light went on the offensive; he was not in the habit of being a passive target.

An indomitable momentum and a fierce aura.

Streams of pure lightning Dou Qi within his body poured into the long blade, erupting with a destructive light.

The blade energy was like a rainbow.

Wail...

The woman's crimson eyes were filled with dead silence, devoid of any sense of intelligence; seeing Hun Tiandi's sharp blade-light, she neither dodged nor avoided it.

Brimming with killing intent, the whistling sound she played with her red lips transformed into Sound Blades to charge at Hun Tiandi.

She completely ignored Hun Tiandi's blade-light; as the sharp Sound Blades pierced the air, cuts were sliced into his green robes.

Wounds appeared on his body, dripping blood.

For a moment, Hun Tiandi slashed toward the woman's throat, while she did not dodge, instead releasing five killing Sound Blades capable of slaying a Nine-Star Dou Ling.

The sharp, cold light made the hair on one's neck stand up.

His heart pounded wildly, as if they were both about to perish together.

"Dou Qi Armor!"

With a thought from Hun Tiandi, lightning Dou Qi surged from within his body to the surface, condensing into a Lightning Armor at a visible speed; it flickered with purple lightning, looking like a Thunder Emperor had descended upon the world.

The Dou Qi surged to reinforce the Lightning Armor, clashing with the killing Sound Blades with a metallic clanging sound.

The slaughter that was originally as fast as lightning was mitigated by the Lightning Armor.

"Horizontal Blade, Slash!"

"Half-Step Crushing Fist, Nine-Fold Force!"

Holding the blade in his right hand, he slashed out horizontally with a surging and indomitable momentum, not stopping for a second.

"Trading life for life? As if I'd be afraid of you!"

Hun Tiandi clenched his left hand into a fist and executed the Half-Step Crushing Fist Nine-Fold Force; the fist force was like a tide, capable of crushing mountains and splitting seas.

The two techniques impacted and collided with each other, erupting in a series of violent booms; destructive power burst forth, causing the surrounding rubble to shatter and snap.

Die!

Though it takes time to describe, it happened in the spark of a flint; while the Lightning Armor blocked the killing Sound Blades, Hun Tiandi executed the Crushing Fist in succession.

In the blink of an eye, the long blade also forcibly slashed through the woman's throat, separating her head from her body.

This strike showed no pity for the fair sex; this strike was nothing but ruthless slaughter.

His eyes ignored her beautiful face as he slashed without hesitation.

At the same time, the lightning Dou Qi contained within the blade-light erupted, pouring entirely onto the rubble and trees; thousands of blade-lights enveloped the woman, turning her into dust.

"Hmph, how foolish!"

Hun Tiandi snorted coldly, his aura violent; his Lightning Armor was shattered, and the five killing Sound Blades were crushed, causing his blood to surge and a trace of blood to flow from the corner of his mouth.

Momentum needs to be nurtured, growing through repeated life-and-death slaughter.

After the woman was slain, there was not a drop of blood; her pulverized body transformed into a dense jade-colored light essence, rushing into that single white jade flute.

It then became crystal clear and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"This is... a Jade Flute Tool Mold?"

Could it be that this was the danger and opportunity the Elder of Sound Valley spoke of? Only by slaying the threat and eliminating the danger could one obtain the opportunity.

It turned out that this woman was not a person or a living creature at all; she had no physical body and had rushed into the jade flute.

Hun Tiandi stepped forward cautiously and arrived before the jade flute in an instant; it was a white jade flute. As he poured Dou Qi into it, a hint of surprise appeared on his cold face.

The white Jade Flute Tool Mold bore no traces of any refinement, which is to say, it was naturally conceived and perfectly formed.

Formed naturally, without a single seam.

It also lacked any formations; as long as someone fused a sliver of their soul and then integrated a legal array, it would become a top-tier weapon.

"Something's not right. If it were nurtured by heaven and earth, it should be a peerless treasure, not just a tool mold!"

"I'm afraid there is something hidden here that the people of Sound Valley didn't explain clearly."
