81: Give you some benefits

One word: fast. The surrounding scenery retreated with the sword qi, as if nothing could be faster than this sword qi, heading straight for Liu Xuanfeng's head.

This was a life-saving trump card Xu Jiayin, Xu Xi's nominal father, left for Xu Xi.

There were two jade talismans in total, one for attack and one for defense.

Previously, when dealing with Zheng Dayi's assassination attempt, Xu Xi had already used up the defensive jade talisman. Now, only this offensive jade talisman remained.

It was perfect for dealing with Liu Xuanfeng.

Both were in the Entering Profundity, but Xu Jiayin's sword qi, condensed with full focus, emphasized only one word: 'fast'.

Speed is power!

Liu Xuanfeng, caught off guard and completely unprepared for Xu Xi to have enough power to activate a jade talisman while performing his lightning spell and condensing a lightning dragon, had no time to react.

But even with a slow reaction, Entering Profundity strength was not just for show. He didn't let Xu Xi manipulate him; instead, sword qi surged, and a sharp longsword appeared in his hand.

"You picked your moment quite well; at least you made this old man drop his guard."

"But if it's just this, the farce can end here."

The longsword was held horizontally in front of him. Xu Jiayin's sword qi was truly fast, but Liu Xuanfeng barely managed to block it.

A faint crack was left on the sharp sword. This sword was effectively scrapped, with no possibility of being used again.

A seventh-grade Profound Artifact, it was truly a pity, but being able to minimize his losses with it, Liu Xuanfeng wasn't entirely unable to accept it.

Looking at Xu Xi, his eyes showed a hint of admiration. This young man was indeed clever.

But the admiration was fleeting, quickly turning cold again, and he uttered a single word in a flat tone:

"Descend!"

No longer intending to play around, Liu Xuanfeng immersed all his thoughts into the battle.

The giant sword, previously composed of vast sword qi, stood in the air. Surrounding fragmented sword qi battled the lightning dragon, but in an instant, it gathered and plummeted, targeting Xu Xi, who stood on the ground.

One could not stand in mid-air without Reaching the Profound, so Liu Xuanfeng held a distinct advantage from above. Although Tang Wan wanted to help Xu Xi, she would not act unless Xu Xi was on the verge of death.

Weighted training was also a part of stimulating potential. If Xu Xi could make progress through this, Tang Wan considered it a good thing.

Genius should be tempered more; otherwise, Tang Wan wouldn't have indulged Li Ning霜 repeatedly before, the purpose being to give Li Ning霜 sufficient training.

This way, the trip would have some meaning.

"Old dog, how do you know that wasn't my real killing move!"

The massive sword qi, about to descend, pressed closer to Xu Xi step by step, and at this moment, Xu Xi no longer held back.

Another jade talisman was crushed, but this one was different: it was given by Tang Wan.

The true power of lightning was about to reach the battlefield!

The sky suddenly changed color, with patches of dark clouds gathering above Xu Xi, obscuring the entire sky.

"Eclipse!"

It was the same lightning condensation, the same continuous accumulation of power, but this time, the charge was remarkably brief, as if completed in an instant.

This was a scenario Xu Xi had envisioned long ago: using Lightning Dragon Soaring as a connection, accumulating the lightning needed for Eclipse in advance, and then unleashing it.

With a 'whoosh,' lightning streaked across the sky, bolts of lightning falling and striking Liu Xuanfeng.

Besides speed, it was still speed, but this time, the speed was something Liu Xuanfeng could not withstand.

The lightning in the sky came one after another, and Liu Xuanfeng could only hastily dodge.

The moment Eclipse appeared, Liu Xuanfeng felt a strong murderous intent, as well as lightning that threatened his life.

Such an attack was absolutely not something an Entering Profundity expert like him could withstand; it was a Reaching the Profound level killing move!

"Tang Wan, you bitch!"

"Still saying you didn't teach him the lightning spell?"

"Is this a move that a nobody like Xu Xi could use?"

Another round of curses erupted. Having witnessed the power of the lightning, Liu Xuanfeng, no matter how foolish, realized that Tang Wan had given this to Xu Xi.

He turned his head to glance at Tang Wan, his eyes filled with intense resentment.

However, he was instantly plunged back into anxiety, constantly dealing with the incoming lightning.

"This kid, could it be that he really is a genius?"

Still surprised, having been shocked twice in such a short time, Tang Wan, witnessing Xu Xi perform the lightning spell with her own eyes, had to admire Xu Xi's mastery in this area.

In fact, Xu Xi subtly showed signs of surpassing Tang Wan.

If Tang Wan didn't know that she had personally given Xu Xi the Eclipse jade talisman, she would have truly believed it was a new, continuous technique formed by a Reaching the Profound expert who specialized in lightning spells, taught without reservation.

Using the Lightning Dragon to trigger Eclipse, a genius combination move.

If Tang Wan were to perform it herself, it wouldn't be impossible, but she wouldn't be as agile as Xu Xi.

Therefore, a genius is a genius after all; their thought processes are different from ordinary people.

Finally, a mangled corpse descended from the sky.

Completely charred, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, already unrecognizable from being struck by lightning, Liu Xuanfeng, no matter how powerful, was killed by Xu Xi's smooth combo.

After all, Xu Xi had a cheat!

How can a normal player running a dungeon compare to a player using cheats? You can't compare, you know!

"Phew~"

"I'm exhausted, all my spiritual energy is used up. If that old dog had managed to dodge that Eclipse strike, I really couldn't have done anything to him."

"Oh, right, Elder Tang, did you record all this with the recording stone?"

"You didn't lift a finger; it was all done by me alone. If Jiang Chengyun wants to cause trouble using the alliance matter, he can just watch."

"I'll teach him how to behave."

"Right now, he's just bullying me because I'm young. If you let me grow for a few more years, who can stop me?"

Slumped on the ground, Xu Xi lay there in the shape of the character ' too' (tài, meaning 'great'), panting heavily from exhaustion, almost frothing at the mouth.

He looked up at the sky, at Tang Wan and Li Ning霜 who were still there, and couldn't help but ask.

However, as his gaze focused upwards, Xu Xi saw something else, because he seemed to catch sight of strawberry-print underwear.

"Li Ning霜, you're so exposed in broad daylight! I love it, I love it!"

"???"

When I type question marks, it's not because I have a problem, it's because *you* have a problem!

Noticing Xu Xi's tone of voice and the direction of his gaze, Li Ning霜 naturally sensed something was off with Xu Xi, and then instantly knew what Xu Xi was looking at.

She immediately descended to the ground. Having just disembarked from the shuyue boat, it was simply Tang Wan bringing Li Ning霜 down, a natural consequence.

Coincidentally, Xu Xi had taken advantage of her again. What kind of situation was this?

Fortunately, Li Ning霜 had completely become 'Xu Xi's shape,' so this little matter wasn't a big deal. It was just considered a little bonus for Xu Xi after the big battle.
