236: Holy Son Qin Chen
Before his words fell, his crimson Flying Sword had already split, and nine Sword Shadows formed a killing Formation. Sharp Sword Qi crisscrossed, completely sealing off all your escape routes.
Almost at the same moment, Ao Xue understood implicitly and swiftly pointed her delicate finger at the treasure mirror in the air.
Ripples like water spread across the mirror's surface, and a strange binding force emerged from thin air—this time, it didn't restrain your body but firmly locked onto your Qi mechanism, making you feel as if you were trapped in a swamp, and your movements instantly slowed by a third.
Cai Yi roared even louder, his muscles bulging and knotting. His black long staff no longer focused on intricate changes but concentrated pure power capable of shattering mountains and cracking stones. A simple yet fierce move, “Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies,” came smashing towards your waist!
The staff's wind howled and surged, compressing the surrounding air into continuous explosions. With Sima Tao's sword Formation on one side and his staff on the other, they wove a net of heaven and earth, interwoven with physical force and Sword Qi, leaving you nowhere to escape!
Nangong Feiyan bit her fingertip, smearing a drop of vital blood onto her long whip. The whip immediately came alive, mystical runes appearing on its body, like a true venomous Dragon, piercing directly towards your heart with a mournful shriek!
This strike, empowered by vital blood, saw a massive increase in speed and power. It was unleashed precisely the moment you were locked by the treasure mirror and restrained from both sides—insidious, vicious, precise, and fatal!
At this moment, you were surrounded by enemies, with killing moves interlocking, already trapped in a desperate situation!
Your pupils contracted sharply, knowing that a moment of life and death had arrived.
The Nascent Soul within your body suddenly opened its eyes, and vast Nascent Soul Power poured out without reservation, merging with the power of Dao Patterns.
At the same time, the light evasion boots under your feet flashed brightly, and you shifted three feet horizontally in mid-air at the critical moment!
"Hiss!"
Nangong Feiyan's venomous Dragon-like whip tip brushed past your ribs, drawing a streak of blood. Your Protective Aura was easily torn apart like paper.
But this fleeting moment, quick as a flash of lightning, allowed you to seize a golden opportunity for a counterattack!
You endured the sharp pain in your ribs, ignoring the sword Formation and staff wind coming from behind, and poured all your spirit and power into the youguang sword.
At the same time, the Spotless Sword Body hummed piercingly within you.
An unprecedented feeling of power surged through your heart, making you feel as if you possessed an invincible will.
"I have a sword that can shatter the firmament!"
You let out a low roar, moving with the sword, body and sword becoming one. Your entire being transformed into a startling streak of light tearing through the sky. No longer remotely controlling the sword, you merged with it, combining speed, power, and resolute will into one, shooting directly towards Ao Xue, whose movements were slightly slower!
This sword was unimaginably fast, almost surpassing the limits of thought!
The ruthlessness on Ao Xue's face had not yet faded before it turned into extreme terror.
She felt as if everything before her had vanished, leaving only that approaching deathly sword light, filling her entire vision!
"Ao Xue, be careful!"
Sima Tao was furious and alarmed, hastily urging his sword Formation to press down on you.
However, it was too late.
"Puff—"
The sound of Protective Aura shattering was clearly audible.
The sword light instantly pierced through her body!
Ao Xue froze in place, looking down at her chest in disbelief.
The next moment, her protective jade talisman automatically activated, and vast power of space-time surged forth, instantly enveloping her and teleporting her out of the Secret Realm.
Another powerful enemy was eliminated!
Just as your sword light pierced through Ao Xue, Sima Tao's sword Formation, the brawny man's staff shadow, and Nangong Feiyan's long whip also arrived from behind with a roar.
A smile of successful cunning flashed in your eyes.
Almost at the instant their Magic Treasures struck you—
"Buzz!"
With a roar, a pillar of light enveloped you. The Distance-less Teleportation Array had already been quietly activated by you.
When the three's Magic Treasures struck you, they only hit an afterimage; your true body had already been teleported away by the Formation.
The three trembled with rage, staring at the spot where you vanished.
"Hateful, truly too hateful!" Sima Tao's voice trembled with anger.
Nangong Feiyan's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, her fury almost gushing out.
Cai Yi also frowned deeply, his expression solemn.
"This child is by no means the rumored good-for-nothing; we must plan carefully," Nangong Feiyan said coldly.
"Indeed, I didn't expect him, with his common-grade Wasted spiritual root, to possess such strength," Cai Yi nodded in agreement.
Sima Tao took a deep breath, his brows tightly furrowed: "From the recent exchange, he is mainly strong in movement techniques and evasion. The only real threat to us is that sword technique."
"Hmph, is this the power of the Spotless Sword Body?" Nangong Feiyan snorted coldly, "It seems it's nothing special after all!"
"We indeed underestimated him this time," Cai Yi continued, "but his teleportation Formation is very ingenious. We need to find someone proficient in Formations to set up a sealing grand Formation in advance."
Sima Tao looked at Cai Yi and nodded in agreement.
Nangong Feiyan smiled faintly: "By the way, Mo Wentian, as a Prodigy of the Wuji Immortal Sect, must be proficient in the Wuji Heaven-Sealing Sword Formation. With his help, we can surely kill Qin Chen."
As she spoke, she glanced at your bloodstain on the long whip in her hand.
She seemingly casually flicked her hand, collecting the bloodstain into a jade bottle, then revealed a meaningful smile.
Sima Tao's face lit up with joy upon hearing this: "Good idea! Let's set off now."
With that, the three soared into the sky, transforming into three streaks of light and speeding eastward.
Meanwhile, you were meditating and recuperating in the cave where you had previously set up the Distance-less Teleportation Array.
Although you were injured in the earlier fight with the five, after consuming a Five Elements Ganoderma, you recovered in just a short while.
Feeling your injuries rapidly recover, you couldn't help but exclaim: "As expected of a Heaven and Earth Spirit Medicine, its effect is much stronger than a Rejuvenation Pill."
If others knew you were using rare thousand-year-old medicinal herbs to heal, they would surely cry out in extravagance.
After all, ordinary injuries only require taking a Rejuvenation Pill and a little recuperation to recover.
After your injuries healed, you began to recall the recent battle, secretly astonished.
"These Immortal Domain Prodigies are indeed worthy of their reputation, far from comparable to ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators."
"If they hadn't been careless and underestimated me this time, I probably wouldn't have been able to handle five people working together."
"It seems I need to be more cautious in my future actions."
After a moment of contemplation, you waved your hand, summoning the void-breaking boat, and steered it eastward.
Only this time, you had taken on the appearance of Sacred Land Saint Son.
With Sacred Land Saint Son's temperament and strength, who would dare to easily provoke him?
After all, not everyone is as cautious and suspicious as Nangong Feiyan.
Indeed, your journey was quite smooth.
Many Divine Senses swept over the void-breaking boat you were riding. Upon detecting the "Sacred Land Saint Son" inside, who was meditating with closed eyes and a calm expression, they all detoured, not daring to approach.
You couldn't help but chuckle inwardly—it seems the title of Sacred Land Saint Son is indeed useful.
