265: Chapter 265 Strange Ideas

Bai Chi did not answer, her right claw already pressing onto the hilt of her bone saber.

Her gaze did not leave Chief Clerk Gu Qing, but her peripheral vision swept across the swirling golden halo inside the Buddhist Hall.

" Retreat on your own now. "

" Otherwise… "

" Otherwise what? " Bai Chi was completely unafraid.

" I shall behead you. "

The Qi on Chief Clerk Gu Qing suddenly turned sharp and fierce.

" Is that so! "

" Swoosh! "

Bai Chi's bone saber had already cleared its sheath, the blade spinning in her hand.

" Try beheading me and see. "

" You are courting death! "

" Swoosh! "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing's sword completely cleared its sheath, and a cyan-gray sword beam flew out from the blade, skimming across the ground toward the front of Bai Chi's feet.

" Azure Frost Style! "

" Clang! "

Bai Chi slashed with her bone saber, breaking the Sword Qi. Then, raising her bone saber, a dark red blood blade flew out from the tip of the blade, slashing toward the side of Chief Clerk Gu Qing's sword body.

" Blood Blade! "

" Hm? "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing flipped his wrist, turning his sword horizontally, and caught that blood blade with the back of his sword, producing a muffled sound. The blood blade shattered on the surface of the sword's back, breaking into several pieces that scattered on both sides of the door frame.

" You have some skills. "

" Azure Frost: River Sever! "

" Swoosh! ! ! "

Sword beams flashed.

Bai Chi dodged sideways, the blade sliding down against the sword body. Metal collided to produce fine sparks, splashing into the air and extinguishing.

She stepped back and pulled away, holding her bone saber horizontally in front of her chest as the dark red blood light condensed on the blade once again.

" Azure Frost: Layered Waves! "

The sword beam lit up three times in succession, pressing toward Bai Chi's position one after another, each wider than the last, covering the retreat routes on both sides of Bai Chi.

Bai Chi held her saber horizontally to block. The first sword beam landed on the blade, causing her feet to slide back half a step. The second sword beam immediately pressed down, thinning the blood light on the blade by a layer. When the third sword beam fell, she did not take it head-on, rolling sideways to the left to avoid the area covered by the sword beam and standing up again.

Chief Clerk Gu Qing's sword tip raised once again, the cyan-gray spiritual light continuously shining on the blade.

" How many more times can you dodge? "

Bai Chi did not answer, the blood light on her bone saber lighting up once more, denser than before.

She took a step forward, the blade flipping over, and a thick blood light burst forth from the blade, pressing toward Chief Clerk Gu Qing's front.

" Blood Fiend Slash! "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing held his sword horizontally to block. The blood light crashed into the sword body, producing a muffled impact sound. His feet slid back half a step, and the cyan-gray spiritual light on the sword dimmed for a fraction of a second before lighting up again.

After the strike.

Bai Chi pressed her advantage.

She withdrew her right foot half a step, the tip of her bone saber pointing downward, and dark red blood light surged out from within her body.

" Blood Seal Pagoda… "

" Condense! "

Blood Fiend light pervaded, and at that instant, her Qi leaped from the Early Stage of Tier 3 to the Middle Stage of Tier 3. A dark red light formed a continuously churning layer of light membrane around her, pushing back the golden Buddhist light that was burning her Demon Power by half an inch.

She opened her eyes, a layer of dark red light welling up around the edges of her Blood Pupil. The blood light on the bone saber also surged accordingly, extending upward along the blade and condensing into a slender dark red light blade at the tip. Its edges continuously contracted, sucking the surrounding light into it, extending along the blade body and stopping at the tip.

" Blood Fiend Seal Slash! "

The bone saber chopped down, and a thick dark red light blade burst forth from the blade, wider than any previous time, wrapped in the Demon Power of the Blood Seal Pagoda, pressing toward Chief Clerk Gu Qing's front.

Where the light blade passed, a slender scorched mark was left on the ground, and the golden Buddhist light at the edges was continuously pushed back, unable to close inward anymore.

Chief Clerk Gu Qing held his sword horizontally to block. The cyan-gray spiritual light on the sword body continuously leaped when it contacted that dark red light blade, and an expanding layer of cracks appeared on the surface of the sword. Afterward, the light blade slid past the side of the sword body, cutting across his left shoulder.

Chief Clerk Gu Qing's robe was cut open with a slit, blood seeping out from the wound, flowing down his arm and gathering into a slender line of blood at his fingertips.

" Puchi! "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing forcibly propped up his body.

Bai Chi stood at the edge of the stone slabs, the blood light on the bone saber slowly receding.

" Do you still want to stop me now? "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing did not speak, holding his sword horizontally in front of his chest.

" With me here, don't even think about passing. "

" Then I can only make you disappear. "

Bai Chi did not speak again.

She lowered her center of gravity again, holding the bone saber horizontally in front of her. The dark red blood light condensed around her body once more, pushing along the blade toward the tip, forming a continuously compressed dark red speck of light at the tip.

Her Qi once again leaped from the Early Stage of Tier 3 to the Middle Stage of Tier 3, the power of the Blood Seal Pagoda being fully activated by her.

" Swoosh! "

With the tip facing forward, the dark red light on the bone saber completely covered the blade.

" Blood Seal Kill! "

" Boom! "

Blood light exploded.

Chief Clerk Gu Qing held his sword horizontally to block, the cyan-gray spiritual light on the sword body violently leaping the moment they contacted.

" Hum hum hum~ "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing's expression gradually turned ugly, the spiritual light of the sword body shattering directly after persisting for a breath.

Fortunately at this moment.

" Heavenly Buddha's Great Handprint! ! "

" Boom! "

A golden handprint flew out from inside the Buddhist Hall, growing rapidly against the wind, expanding quickly from palm-sized to half a zhang wide, wrapped in churning golden Buddhist light.

Pressing toward Bai Chi's position. A layer of flowing scriptures emerged on the surface of the handprint, and the Buddhist light at the edges left several slender light traces in the air.

" Hm? "

Bai Chi's saber momentum changed direction the instant that handprint pressed down.

" Break! ! ! "

" Rumble! ! "

The two attacks collided.

Bai Chi took two steps back, stabilizing her figure.

The dark red light was rapidly receding from the blade, and the consumption of Demon Power was far greater than she expected, unable to form any form of effective counterattack again in a short time.

She looked up toward the direction of the Buddhist Hall.

Lin Fan stood at the entrance of the Buddhist Hall, the golden halo around his body receding. However, a few slender golden lights still lingered on the tips of the hair in front of his forehead, slowly receding along the position of his temples.

His gaze landed on Bai Chi, and her gaze also landed on him, the two of them gazing at each other across a distance for a moment.

" What kind of demon are you again. "

After seeing this person come.

Bai Chi's gaze landed on Lin Fan, the bone saber in her hand still maintaining the posture of being held horizontally in front of her chest, but the dark red light on the blade was continuously receding.

Her gaze stopped on Lin Fan, the light at the edges of her Blood Pupil flashing once, as if it was pressed down from the inside by something, giving rise to an absurd thought telling her not to hurt Lin Fan.

And just after this thought appeared.

She felt the Blood Seal Pagoda inside her body leap slightly at that instant, quickly restoring Bai Chi's thoughts to normal.

At this moment.

Lin Fan's gaze landed on Bai Chi. After asking this sentence, seeing that Bai Chi did not answer, he turned sideways and walked to Chief Clerk Gu Qing's side, reaching out to support his arm.

" Chief Clerk Gu Qing, are you alright? "

Chief Clerk Gu Qing's sword body was held horizontally in front of his chest. The wound on his shoulder was still seeping blood, as Bai Chi's slash just now had cut open the edge of his shoulder armor, deep to the bone, but he did not let go.

" It's nothing serious. "
