Chapter 262 – Sword Qi Begins to Emerge
The disciples were talking, and some were very puzzled that Zhang Ding had lost this battle.
“Zhang Ding unexpectedly lost! He clearly had the upper hand all along, so why did he remove that dan fire and give that Xu Chuniang the opportunity to reverse her defeat?”
“Did Zhang Ding withdraw the dan fire, why didn’t I see it, could it be that Xu Chuniang used a means to collect the dan fire?”
“It’s highly likely that this is the case, she had previously received the Dan Flame hard, and it was 80% that she was buying time. This is also the reason why she was clearly scorched by the Dan Flame but was not injured.”
The crowd’s speculations were very close to the truth, Xu Chuniang had indeed used the Five Elements Body Forging method to draw in the Dan Flame.
It was just that the amount of this Dan Flame was too small.
After absorbing all of it, the strengthening of her body was also extremely limited, merely toughening her skin by a hair.
Zhang Ding’s failure in picking the ring had caused the crowd to make a new assessment of Xu Chuniang’s strength.
Not to mention how she managed to collect that Dan Flame, just the fact that she was able to repel Zhang Ding with the force of a single punch was enough to show that she had amazing physical skills.
And Zhang Ding’s strength was one of the best amongst all the disciples of the Myriad Dan Sect who had gone to battle. It was only slightly inferior to the streams of Empty Phase, Xiao Qi, and Ye Yu’er.
Xu Chuniang won two matches in a row, and the next challenger, it was the turn of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Elder Tang of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect weighed the odds and assigned Mo Lin, who was at the second level of Foundation Establishment and was known for his fast swords, to take the field.
After two matches, the female cultivator named Xu Chuniang had been depleted of quite a bit of her strength, but it was prudent for him to send out the strongest Mo Lin.
After Mo Lin stepped onto the field, he directly attacked, striking with the fast sword that he was so proud of.
His sword strokes were like a green dragon coming out of the water, with several residual shadows appearing instantly, making people momentarily unable to distinguish where the real sword light and killing opportunities were.
However, even a faster sword could not be faster than divine sense.
Xu Chuniang’s divine sense was strong and fearless of the sword light, and had long since detected the real killing opportunity.
Her foot lightly point, use the force toward the front to leap, flash through the heavy void sword shadow, toward the opponent to attack and kill.
Seeing Xu Chuniang perfectly avoid all the killing opportunities and press forward, Mo Lin was surprised in the bottom of his heart, and his body retreated rapidly towards the back.
Just now, she used only one punch to blast Zhang Ding out of the ring, enough to see that her physical skills were extraordinary.
He, a pure sword cultivator, was afraid that it would not be good if he was close to her.
However, when he took a step back, Xu Chuniang took a step forward.
Seeing that if he retreated any further, he would have to exit outside the ring, Mo Lin suddenly paused and launched an attack with his sword.
This time, his speed was even faster.
Only to see the sword in Mo Lin’s hand draw a circular arc, from which a large sword shadow poured out, shooting towards Xu Chuniang in unison.
It turned out that he had feigned retreat before, but he was merely storing up his strength for this move.
Looking at the dozens of sword shadows coming towards her, Xu Chuniang’s eyes slightly condensed.
These sword shadows, even her divine sense couldn’t tell the difference between reality and reality, so there was only one possibility, all the sword shadows were real.
Xu Chuniang’s green silk was windless, and a large green-colored cauldron appeared out of thin air in front of her, emitting a light green light that temporarily resisted dozens of sword shadows.
Seeing this scene, Mo Lin lightly snorted, “Unconscionable!”
This “Ten Thousand Heavy Sword Shadows” was his killing move, how could it be easily broken?
The sword in his hand rose, and the many sword shadows seemed to be controlled, vibrating up, and even crossed the green tattooed tripod in one fell swoop, stabbing towards Xu Chuniang.
However, when these sword shadows stabbed within three feet of her body, they seemed to have encountered a layer of invisible barriers, and were no longer able to move forward.
Mo Lin’s brows slightly knit, a steady stream of spiritual qi into the spirit sword in his hand, urging the sword shadows to move forward.
The sword shadow vibrated more than once, but it was still stagnant.
Looking at the dozens of sword shadows in front of her, Xu Chuniang once again experienced the benefits of a strong divine sense.
Divine sense was invisible, could attack and defend, and could take on millions of shapes, making it much more flexible than a spiritual weapon. She put away the green tattooed tripod with a thought, and then the sixteen divine senses came out in unison, fiercely stirring towards the dozens of sword shadows.
See these sword shadows in this churning under, have inches into a bit of black shadow, and then dissipated without a trace.
Mo Lin’s pupils contracted violently, and an incredulous expression appeared on his face.
He had fought against Xiao Qi, and when Xiao Qi faced this move, he had to use stronger sword moves to suppress and crack it, and was unable to do so so lightly.
This Xu Chuniang, in the end, how did she crack this move of his?
Thinking of the previous battle between Xiao Qi and Empty Phase, he moved inwardly, could it be that she and that Empty Phase generally, also cultivated the method of Divine Sense?
But soon, Mo Lin suppressed this guess.
To resolve this move with divine sense, the requirement for the strength of divine sense was extremely high, and it was simply not something that a Foundation Stage cultivator could do.
Eighty percent of the time, she had mastered some kind of superb technique or practiced some divine ability to be able to do so.
She seemed to have easily dissolved this move, but in reality, she must have paid a great price.
Just like when she fought against Zhang Ding earlier, she had endured the Dan Flame to collect the Dan Flame.
Mo Lin’s heart was certain, his sword moved with him, and he went towards Xu Chuniang to kill her.
Zhang Ding lost because he was too confident in his own dan fire, which gave her a chance to breathe, he would not make the same mistake.
Take advantage of her illness to kill her!
In the face of Mo Lin’s sudden and powerful sword move, Xu Chuniang was not shocked, but rather delighted, withdrawing her divine sense and fighting against it with only the power of her forged body.
Having a strong divine sense was her advantage, but if all battles relied on her divine sense to win, then she would never be able to progress in her physical arts.
After all, in addition to refining the body, the art of body forging was equally indispensable in actual combat.
Mo Lin deserved the name of a fast sword, his sword was fast but not chaotic, before one move was old, the next move came afterward.
Xu Chuniang had to be fully focused in order to avoid his sword moves.
After attacking for a long time with no results, a little impatience grew in Mo Lin’s heart.
Every time he struck his sword, he felt like he was able to hit the other party, but every time, he was just a little bit off.
He had already increased the speed of his sword to the extreme, but he had never been able to touch the corner of the opponent’s coat.
On the contrary, Xu Chuniang was getting more and more energized.
In this kind of intense matchup, she quickly adapted to her own strength, her reaction speed going up a notch from before.
Mo Lin fought hard for a long time, and when he saw his opponent getting more and more relaxed, he was stifled.
He didn’t believe that he couldn’t hit her!
Faster, faster ……
Mo Lin’s movements appeared to be stumped, and as his sword surpassed the extreme, an overwhelming sword qi stirred out from underneath his sword and attacked towards Xu Chuniang.
Below the ring, many people were paying attention to the fierce battle between the two.
Thus the moment that sword qi appeared, some people cried out in shock.
“That’s …… sword qi! Mo Lin actually made a breakthrough on the spot and cultivated sword qi.”
“Only when one cultivates to a certain level in the sword dao can one have the chance to cultivate sword qi. It was Chen Xinlei and Xiao Qi who failed to cultivate sword qi. Will Xu Chuniang be able to defend against this move?”
“Sword Qi is not only fast, its power is even more extraordinary, even if that Xu Chuniang has some physical skills on her body, how can she oppose it?”
“This battle is already decided, Xu Chuniang is going to lose.”
