180: Have you finished your last words?

“Hahahahaha!”

Hearing Wei Xun’s words, the Void Core Cultivator burst into laughter, as if he had heard a hilarious joke.

“You’re just a monster in the Pure Yang Realm. I’ve already killed seven or eight monsters like you. What makes you any different from them?”

Wei Xun carried his long spear in one hand and held his Flying Sword in the other, his face expressionless.

Seeing Wei Xun remain silent, the Void Core Cultivator continued, “No! You are different from them; they weren’t as valuable as you.”

“Are your last words finished?” Wei Xun looked up and coldly glanced at the Void Core Cultivator.

After meeting Wei Xun’s gaze, the smile slowly faded from the Void Core Cultivator’s face, and a hint of unease began to rise in his heart.

“Heh heh!” However, the Void Core Cultivator still forced a smile and said, “Big words. I’d like to see what you’re capable of.”

The Void Core Cultivator stomped his foot on the ground, then thrust his sword directly at Wei Xun.

This sword strike was astonishingly fast, arguably the fastest attack Wei Xun had ever witnessed.

A distance of dozens of meters was covered almost instantly.

However, Wei Xun had been prepared for battle from the very beginning, so the moment the Void Core Cultivator launched his attack, his feet had already started moving.

After dodging the perilous attack, Wei Xun casually tossed his Flying Sword into the air, then gripped his long spear with both hands and, using the momentum from dodging, spun sharply in the air, thrusting the long spear fiercely towards the Void Core Cultivator.

The entire sequence of movements was fluid and seamless.

The Void Core Cultivator’s attack was too fierce; he hadn’t expected Wei Xun to be able to counterattack while dodging.

Although he had immediately dodged sideways, the blade of Wei Xun’s long spear still grazed his chest.

Seeing this, the Void Core Cultivator was startled and could only immediately leap backward to create distance from Wei Xun.

After landing and steadying himself, the Void Core Cultivator touched his chest and, finding no wound, breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Xun’s spear had only torn a rip in the Void Core Cultivator’s clothes.

“You have a tiny bit of luck!” Wei Xun sneered, “Just a little bit more.”

“Indeed, my luck is better!” The Void Core Cultivator took two deep breaths to calm himself. “But you won’t have this kind of chance again.”

“Oh, really?” Wei Xun scoffed.

“Next, I’ll show you what a difference in Realm means!” The Void Core Cultivator took a deep breath, then held his long sword and channeled Qi in place.

Wisps of pale white Qi swirled around the Void Core Cultivator’s body, even stirring up a whirlwind in the forest.

Wei Xun’s gaze was fixed, holding his long spear horizontally in front of him, not daring to relax.

“You monsters cultivate your bodies!” The Void Core Cultivator pointed his sword at Wei Xun and said, “I almost forgot that I shouldn’t engage in close combat with you!”

As soon as his voice fell, the Void Core Cultivator swung his sword at Wei Xun from a distance, instantly unleashing a fierce horizontal Sword Qi.

Seeing this, Wei Xun flipped and dodged, narrowly avoiding the Sword Qi.

But the Void Core Cultivator followed up with another sword strike from a distance, unleashing a massive vertical Sword Qi.

Wei Xun hadn’t expected the attacks to come so densely. At this moment, he was still in mid-air from his previous dodge and had no time to dodge again. He could only thrust his long spear forward.

Clang~

With a loud clang, Wei Xun was directly thrown backward by the Sword Qi.

But just as he landed, the Void Core Cultivator unleashed two more sword strikes.

This time, two Sword Qi appeared in a cross shape, rushing towards him. Seeing this attack, Wei Xun decisively burrowed underground on the spot, avoiding the attack.

“You stinky rat, don’t think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re hiding underground!” The Void Core Cultivator flipped his hand, and a fist-sized square seal appeared in his grasp.

The Void Core Cultivator threw the seal violently onto the ground, and it slammed directly onto the surface, causing the earth to tremble violently.

“Mountain Shaking Seal!”

At the same time, Wei Xun, who was hiding underground, felt a wave of vibrating Qi crashing around beneath the surface.

If he were hit by this wave of Qi, he would likely be severely injured.

Seeing this situation, Wei Xun could only leap out from underground, reappearing on the surface.

But before he could even steady himself, several more Sword Qi came hacking towards Wei Xun.

Wei Xun could only continuously use Shadowless Step to dodge them.

The Void Core Realm Cultivator simply had an abundance of Spiritual Qi reserves.

This kind of Qi-transformed attack was extremely draining on Spiritual Qi; those with lower cultivation levels simply couldn’t sustain such an attack method.

At this moment, the Void Core Cultivator was like a human cannon, standing in place, haphazardly swinging his sword, preventing Wei Xun from getting close, and if Wei Xun failed to dodge in time, he would be injured by the Sword Qi.

Wei Xun had originally planned to keep dodging to exhaust the man’s Spiritual Qi, expecting his attacks to naturally slow down once he tired.

However, after dodging for a long time, the Void Core Cultivator showed no signs of fatigue. If this continued, he would tire himself out before the opponent did.

“In that case!” After narrowly dodging another attack, Wei Xun’s eyes narrowed, and he actually picked up his long spear and, instead of retreating, charged directly towards the Void Core Cultivator.

Seeing this, the Void Core Cultivator was also startled.

He had never expected Wei Xun to dare to approach him at this moment.

Because the closer the distance, the less reaction and dodging time Wei Xun would have when facing Sword Qi attacks.

One careless mistake and he would be injured by the Sword Qi.

“Courting death!” The Void Core Cultivator immediately sped up his sword swings, unleashing several more fierce Sword Qi.

Facing attacks coming at him, Wei Xun still dared to charge forward.

After flipping to dodge one Sword Qi, Wei Xun pushed his long spear forward, blocking another Sword Qi.

However, there was no chance to dodge the third Sword Qi coming straight at him.

A smile appeared on the Void Core Cultivator’s lips, already anticipating the scene of Wei Xun’s head being severed by this sword.

Bang~

With a crisp sound, a burst of golden light erupted from Wei Xun’s body, blocking the Sword Qi.

“Body Protection Golden Light?”

The Void Core Cultivator hadn’t expected Wei Xun to have this trick up his sleeve and was about to raise his long sword to finish him off.

But Wei Xun, seizing the instant the Void Core Cultivator was stunned, had already approached him with his long spear in hand and thrust it towards the Void Core Cultivator’s face.

The Void Core Cultivator hurriedly parried with his sword, but Wei Xun’s spear strike knocked the sword out of his hand and sent it flying.

Seeing the long spear about to pierce him, the Void Core Cultivator instantly burst forth with astonishing reaction speed, dodging his head to the side and actually evading the attack, then reaching up to firmly grip Wei Xun’s thrusting long spear.

“Sky-Splitting Palm!”

The Void Core Cultivator gave Wei Xun no time to react, suddenly thrusting a palm towards Wei Xun’s chest.

Bang~

Another identical crisp sound, and golden light flashed.

“How many Body Protection Magic Treasures do you have?” The Void Core Cultivator was horrified.

“Guess?” Seeing that he couldn’t pull out his long spear, Wei Xun immediately used the momentum to grab forward, hugging the Void Core Cultivator tightly.

“What do you want to do?” The Void Core Cultivator tried to push Wei Xun away, but Wei Xun, using all his strength, refused to let go.

“Do you remember the sword I threw into the sky earlier?”

Wei Xun smiled.
