128: Dianxing Academy, Shi Linglong! Don't come any closer!!!
Fifteen years to hone a blade!
When the blade is drawn, all things perish!
She started learning the sword at three, and has never failed until today!
Today, in the borderlands of the outer regions, she was defeated by a single strike of a blade?
"Who... are you!"
"In the Northern Barrens, I've challenged countless masters; demons and even the Saints of the Ghost Dao weren't my match!"
"With your Way of the Blade cultivation, you can't be an unknown!"
The young girl's bright eyes stared intently at him, showing no signs of dejection despite her defeat.
Instead, they were filled with curiosity!
Of course, she hadn't heard of Shen Tianxing; after all, Shen Tianxing had only stepped into the Jianghu a few months ago!
His true fame had only begun to spread less than two months ago!
This young girl clearly seemed like the type obsessed with sword practice, so it would be strange if she had noticed him!
"I didn't expect you to lose sometimes!"
"You don't even know him?"
"You're truly too ignorant! Hahahaha..."
Li Tongshen couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Finally seeing the young girl flustered, his mood brightened considerably.
The young girl tilted her head, glanced at Shen Tianxing, and smiled, revealing her teeth, "It seems you're quite famous in these borderlands. My name is Shi Linglong, what's yours!"
It was the first time the young girl had revealed her name to an outsider.
This had never happened before, because no one had ever been worthy of her telling them her name!
Shen Tianxing gave her a thoughtful look, "You shouldn't be from the Great Qi Dynasty, or any other Imperial Dynasty. If I'm not mistaken, you're from Dianxing Academy, right?"
Such powerful cultivation and such a miraculous sword-drawing technique had never been heard of in any of the major Imperial Dynasties!
What caught Shen Tianxing's attention most was Shi Linglong's mention of 'borderlands'.
Only those from Dianxing Academy would refer to it as the 'borderlands'!
"So what if I am?"
"You still haven't told me your name!"
"If you tell me, perhaps I can take you to Dianxing Academy!"
Shi Linglong narrowed her eyes, her words carrying a hint of temptation.
Now, her eyes were solely on Shen Tianxing, filled with curiosity about him, to the point where even the Clone technique in Li Tongshen's hands wasn't as appealing!
"His name is Shen Tianxing!"
"The Grand Minister of Justice of the Great Qi Dynasty, and also the most famous Prodigy recently!"
"Since you're training in Great Qi, you should have heard of his deeds!"
Before Shen Tianxing could speak, Li Tongshen had already revealed Shen Tianxing's name.
He even reminded Shi Linglong of Shen Tianxing's background and deeds!
"Shen Tianxing?"
"Oh, I've heard! You're currently a thorn in the side of the demon, monster, and Various Ghost Dao Sects!"
"I heard even those guys from the Holy Heaven Demon Sect are targeting you. You still dare to wander around?"
"Aren't you afraid of not being able to return?"
Shi Linglong wasn't completely ignorant.
She had traveled through many Imperial Dynasties and visited many places, so she naturally heard some rumors recently.
She even knew that people from the Holy Heaven Demon Sect were looking for him, which was something ordinary people couldn't achieve.
Even Li Tongshen was surprised!
She had been hunting him for the past month, yet she still had the mind to care about what was happening outside?
"Your suggestion is very interesting, and I'm also very interested in Dianxing Academy."
"I will go, but not now!"
Shen Tianxing finished speaking, then changed the subject, saying, "Alright, enough small talk. Now let's discuss the issue of the Clone technique."
The Clone technique?
What's the problem with that?
Shi Linglong and Li Tongshen listened, looking utterly bewildered!
"Oh no, he's got his eye on it too!"
Li Tongshen reacted quickly, immediately understanding the meaning behind Shen Tianxing's words.
Weren't we talking about your deeds?
How did it shift to me!
I'm just a nobody; you two big shots just let me go!
Li Tongshen felt like crying without tears!
Shi Linglong's eyes widened, and she said warily, "What are you doing? Are you going to snatch it? This is mine!!!"
She had been eyeing the Clone technique for a month and hadn't even gotten her hands on it yet, and now another opponent had appeared?
Shen Tianxing shook his head and chuckled a few times, saying, "To be precise, the Clone technique is his. Before, it might have been yours!"
"But now, it's definitely mine!"
That's right!
I'm here to snatch it!
He was no stranger to Li Tongshen!
In the battle of Luoying Mountain Range, Li Tongshen had participated, along with Yuan Tian and those so-called Prodigy masters, to deal with him.
However, Li Tongshen didn't go all out that time, so he couldn't escape.
He left behind a Clone.
This greatly intrigued Shen Tianxing!
Later, he had inquired about this person's information and found that he was full of mysteries, seemingly holding many secrets.
Especially that Clone technique, which was no simple Cultivation Technique!
Its strength was almost on par with that of Saints like Yuan Tian!
How could Shen Tianxing not notice such a powerful Clone technique?
Now it seems, fate has brought them together!
"You... you're shameless! I saw it first!"
"But you haven't gotten your hands on it, have you?"
"So what? I... I..."
"You lost, so you have to listen to me. Go wait on the side now!"
Shen Tianxing argued with Shi Linglong face-to-face like a child, even bringing up their earlier spar.
He completely shut Shi Linglong down!
"You... you... what are you going to do!"
Seeing Shen Tianxing walk towards him, Li Tongshen panicked completely!
"Don't come over!!!"
The current Shen Tianxing was like heaven and earth compared to the one at Luoying Mountain Range!
Even a fierce girl like Shi Linglong was no match for him; how could a small Cultivator at the Peak of the Zizai Realm like himself resist?
"Why are you so scared? I won't eat you!"
"Besides, you should thank me. I've eliminated the Saint of your Heavenly Fiend Sect for you. Maybe you can even become a Saint in the future!"
"To thank me, letting me observe your Clone technique isn't too much to ask, is it?"
Shen Tianxing said with a laugh, also mentioning how he had killed the Saints of the Heavenly Fiend Sect, Nether Moon Sect, and Yin Soul Sect.
This was definitely not a threat!
It was simply conquering people with virtue!
"What? You... Niu Yuan died by your hand? That's impossible!"
"Nothing's impossible. Just tell me if you'll give it or not!"
"What if I don't give it?"
Don't give it?
Shen Tianxing stared at him and said, "I know this one of yours is also a Clone, so killing you wouldn't be very useful, right?"
"However, if she can find you with soul-locking techniques, it shouldn't be difficult for me to use the Seven Star Questioning Heaven Scripture to calculate the location of your true body, right?"
"Are you sure you won't give it?"
Seven Star Questioning Heaven Scripture!!
This seemed to be the Heaven Mending Sect's most top-tier divination art, capable of divining the past and future, and deducing the traces of all things that existed in the starry sky!
Deducing the location of his true body truly wouldn't be difficult!
This Shen Tianxing was much more terrifying than that girl Shi Linglong!!!
He might actually die!
Li Tongshen fell silent... "How is it? Have you thought it over?"
Shen Tianxing wasn't in a hurry at all; smart people knew how to choose!
In the face of life and death, what was a mere Clone Cultivation Technique?
"You win. I'll give you the Cultivation Technique!"
