Chapter 258 – The Infinite Buddha
Chapter 258 – The Immeasurable Buddha
Seeing Chen Xinlei’s hand with the sword began to be unsteady, the sword moves also began to make mistakes, Lanzhi eyes showed a thoughtful color, actually did not take advantage of the opportunity to attack, still playing a steady defense.
She thought very clearly, Chen Xinlei seems to be at a disadvantage, but the explosive power of the sword cultivator can not be underestimated, would rather play conservatively, there is no need to take risks.
Seeing that the other party did not fall for it, Chen Xinlei gritted her teeth and once again ruthlessly revealed a few cracks.
However, Lanzhi seemed to be determined, only defending and not attacking, using several spiritual weapons to surround herself into an iron bucket.
With the passage of time, Chen Xinlei had a feeling of her meridians being torn and her head aching, the aftermath of the excessive loss of spiritual energy and the summoning of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
With regret in her heart, it seemed that she could only fight until this one.
Chen Xin Lei dryly withdrew her sword, “I admit defeat.”
Lanzhi’s face did not show her joy or anger, “Fairy Shocking Thunder’s sword skills are superior, I have the advantage in this battle.”
Lanzhi picked the ring successfully and was credited with one point.
The ringmaster was changed from Chen Xinlei to Lanzhi, and the next person to challenge was a disciple of the Myriad Dan Sect.
The Myriad Dan Sect disciple was not good at fighting and was sent down by Lanzhi after a short fierce battle.
And Lan Zhi lost to the next sword cultivator from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect after winning two matches in a row.
The bout went on methodically, and the Wan Jian Sect’s score accumulated to ten points, far ahead of several other sects.
The Cold Mountain Sect finally couldn’t sit still and sent out Ye Yu’er to play.
Ye Yu’er did not disappoint the Cold Mountain Sect’s expectations, and directly came up with a four-win streak, raising the Cold Mountain Sect’s score to six points.
Unfortunately, she was easily defeated by Xiao Qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect after winning four games in a row.
After Xiao Qi came on, he defeated Ye Yu’er in just ten moves.
His sword strokes were powerful and extraordinary, and then he even defeated four challengers from other sects in a row.
Seeing that the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had scored as high as fifteen points, leaping back over the four sects to become number one, the Immeasurable Sect finally couldn’t sit still and sent out the Empty Phase, who had been made a natural born Buddha.
Empty Phase was white and clean looking, as if he had some kind of magic power on his body that made people feel good when they saw him.
He walked up to the ring, smilingly saluting towards Xiao Qi without the slightest hint of being a Buddha’s son.
Xiao Qi opened his eyes and scanned the empty phase, revealing a hint of satisfaction.
“Not bad, finally a decent one has come.”
Such a person is worthy of becoming his …… whetstone.
Empty Phase could see his opponent’s high battle intent, but he only smiled faintly.
After the battle was declared to begin, he unhurriedly took out a wooden fish and closed his eyes to tap and chant.
Xiao Qi frowned slightly, this mannerism of the other party was not like a duel in the ring, but more like doing morning lessons in the middle of a sect.
“Making a show of being mysterious!”
Xiao Qi snorted coldly and directly launched an attack, controlling the sword with his divine sense towards the empty phase.
The Empty Phase’s eyes were tightly closed, but his Divine Sense had already been released outwardly.
After sensing the fluctuation of aura, his figure did not move at all, and he accelerated the speed of chanting the scriptures, and the sound of the wooden fish being struck changed from slow to fast, from weak to strong.
As the buzzing sound of the wooden fish continued to enter his ears, Xiao Qi felt more and more impatient in his heart and controlled his flying sword to ruthlessly stab at the empty phase.
However, when the flying sword was stabbing towards the empty phase, it was stopped by an invisible force, and the tip of the sword slightly deviated and flew past the body of the empty phase.
And during the whole process, the empty phase was always chanting Buddhist scriptures and striking the wooden fish, with an appearance of not being moved by external objects.
“Divine sense interference!”
Xiao Qi was startled in his heart, what had parted the wooden fish was actually the divine sense of the Empty Phase. The Empty Phase was only at the second level of Foundation Establishment Cultivation, but he was able to strengthen his Divine Sense to such a degree, which was really rare.
The bottom of Xiao Qi’s eyes were colored with caution, and he put away all his contempt, and at the same time, he used his spiritual power to close his hearing.
The sound of the wooden fish had the effect of interfering with the mind and would make people fall into negative emotions without realizing it, and he had already been hit by it.
However, after closing his hearing, the sound of the wooden fish knocking became more and more obvious, causing his brain to buzz.
Only then did Xiao Qi realize that this sound was directly acting on the soul, and even if he closed all his senses of hearing, he would not be able to stop it.
He simply no longer closed hearing, continue to control the flying sword strong attack.
However, whenever the sword body approached within three feet of the empty phase, it would be affected by the layer of invisible resistance and shift its direction.
Xiao Qi had a strong spiritual energy and superior sword skills, but he fought with his hands tied and was unusually stifled.
The annoying sound of wooden fish and chanting of sutras was getting louder and louder, and had already caused serious interference to him.
Xiao Qi took a deep breath, he knew deep down that he could not go on like this, otherwise he would definitely lose this battle.
He withdrew all his divine sense and closed it.
In an instant, his world was instantly quiet, and there was no more annoying sound of wooden fish and chanting.
With a certainty in his heart, he poured a large amount of spiritual energy into his sword and held it towards the empty phase.
Xiao Qi’s sword rose and fell, and its momentum was like a rainbow piercing through the sun as it chopped towards the Empty Phase.
The Empty Phase opened his eyes and instead of choosing to avoid it, he took the blow hard.
When the sword pierced three feet into the empty phase’s circumference, the powerful spiritual energy collided with the empty phase’s divine sense, and then the two men separated, each retreating backwards.
The Empty Phase’s divine sense vibrated more than once, and for the first time, he stopped chanting sutras and striking wooden fish.
Xiao Qi did not feel good either, all of his divine sense was closed, and the sense of oppression brought to him by the Empty Phase was extremely strong.
“Again!”
Xiao Qi took a deep breath and swept towards the Empty Phase with one move faster than the other.
The Empty Phase still received the moves with his divine sense, and with each move he received, his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
And while his body vibrated with divine sense, he became stronger than before at an extremely fast speed.
The authorities were confused, but the onlookers were clear.
Xiao Qi was not able to react while he was in the middle of it, the other disciples on the stage saw it clearly.
“Empty Phase’s Divine Sense is powerful, he can obviously dodge these moves or defuse them in other ways, but he had to choose to receive the sword moves with his Divine Sense. He is borrowing Xiao Qi’s power to exercise his own divine sense!”
“Hiss! This Buddhist son of the Limitless Sect is truly extraordinary. Based on this mind alone, it is far from being comparable to ordinary people. Xiao Qi is only afraid that he will lose, his sword without the help of his divine sense is like a bird that has lost its wings, it will be greatly weakened.”
“If he had met someone else, Xiao Qi would never have lost so easily. It’s a pity that the Empty Phase’s divine sense is superior and his Buddhist teachings are superb, so he has restrained him.”
At this moment in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the atmosphere was stagnant.
It was only after a long time that someone sighed softly, “Senior Brother Xiao is afraid that he will lose this battle. Unable to invoke divine sense, this will be a fatal blow to Senior Brother Xiao.”
How did Elder Tang not know that he would lose this battle, a faint color of regret appeared under his eyes.
“Qi’er’s divine sense isn’t actually weak, but he ran into the empty phase of a born Buddhist. It’s just that he has already won five matches previously, so there’s no need to be too harsh. I only hope that after this battle, he can put away that bit of arrogance in his nature!”
Right at this moment, the two people above the ring, finally split the victory and defeat.
