Chapter 306 – Swordsmanship
Silver Wolf Lang Xian, Sirius Gate’s True Disciple was ranked seventh. He had obtained the title “Silver Wolf” because he was happy with his white robes, but because he was greedy for flowers and lustful of women, “Silver Wolf” became “Lecherous Wolf” because of that.
Lang Xian did not stop just because Xiong Xiying recognized him. On the contrary, after killing a disciple of the late stage of martial arts realm in one go, Lang Xian had even joined hands with the surnamed Pei to attack him from the back and front.
The situation had suddenly turned around, and Xiong Xiying and another Heaven-Shaken Sect disciple were working together to block the attack of the two Perfection of the cultivator s. Although the Cultivator surnamed Pei was injured in the inner organs, he did not have much of an impact on his strength, but seeing that Xiong Xizhe was just a burden, he continued to attack, causing Xiong Xiying to focus most of his attention on protecting the disciple from the clan.
“You think you can kill me like this?”
Xiong Xiying’s flying sword turned into a flash of rainbow light, not only was it able to protect Xiong Xizhe, it was also able to take care of another junior brother of his. Her tyrannical strength was also able to shock the hearts of Spirit Master Pei and the Sirius Gate cultivator Lang Xian who was also a Successor Disciple.
Lang Xian laughed evilly, “Daoist Xiong has two family heads, he might be able to escape, but what about your younger brother? Oh, right, there’s also your fellow sect member, but I think you wouldn’t care too much about his life, right? ”
Xiong Xiying’s sword forced the spirit weapon of the surnamed Pei back, but before he could counterattack, Xiong Xiying had no choice but to retract her flying sword to assist her fellow junior brother in resisting Lang Xian’s pressure.
Xiong Xiying’s face darkened, Lang Xian was right, he knew that his own strength was far above either of the two, so retreating would not broblem, even if he brought his own disciple Xiong Xizhe along, it was not completely hopeless, but it would require him to sacrifice his other junior who was in the same sect as him.
He could clearly feel that his junior brother beside him was already wary. Although on the surface, he was still joining hands with him to fight the enemy, but Xiong Xiying knew, that the moment he thought about escaping, his junior brother would definitely have a way to stop him, unless he was willing to abandon his junior brother too.
Lang Xian seemed to have noticed the hesitation in Xiong Xiying’s expression, and immediately started to “giggle” strangely, causing Xiong Xiying to be even more upset.
Lang Xian and the cultivator surnamed Pei seemed to have anticipated this, at the same time, they increased their offense. Lang Xian took the chance to enter the sword light, and a ball of spiritual light exploded from the surface of the magic tool, and a silver colored Ash Wolf that was completely condensed from spiritual light shot out, after dodging Xiong Xiying and the other Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivator who was in front of it, it pounced straight towards Xiong Xizhe.
The Sirius Gate’s true inheritance spirit technique, the Wolf Transformation spirit art, did not use the body to transform the wolf, but rather used the cultivator’s own spirit energy as its foundation. With the help of the cultivator’s own spirit sense, it condensed into a Spiritual Light Wolf that had a short period of consciousness, and its power was not mediocre.
Although Xiong Xizhe had talent in array formations, he was only an ordinary second stage martial arts realm cultivator. How could he defend against the powers of a Perfection of the cultivator?
Xiong Xizhe tried his best to dodge, buiece of flesh was still torn off of his arm by the silver wolf.
The silver wolf nimbly turned its body in mid air, took a few steps, and then bit at Xiong Xizhe’s throat again. This time, Xiong Xizhe was unable to dodge.
Seeing that the Xiong Family’s array master was about to give up his life and give a kiss, a finger suddenly appeared in the path of the silver wolf’s pounce. The finger was about to strike the Xiong Family’s head.
The silver wolf had a part of Lang Xian’s consciousness, so under his long-range control, it instinctively felt the danger of this finger. Its front paw pressed down on the ground, and it was only half a foot away from the finger.
However, at this moment, the finger pointed forward at the center of the Silver Wolf’s forehead. The Silver Wolf’s agile body suddenly stopped in midair, and then its body exploded into a cloud of white mist, which then dispersed into a cloud of spirit energy.
Just as Xiong Xizhe was about to die, he was saved by his clan brother, but because of the moment of distraction, Xiong Xiying was seized by the Cultivator surnamed Pei. A series of techniques mixed with the Yao County Pei Family’s passed down sacred art “Three Qi Returning Spirit Arts”, rushed towards Xiong Xiying.
Xiong Xiying was flustered, the three spirit energies hidden within the other arts merged together the moment they got close to him, causing the power to increase greatly. In the end, Xiong Xiying was not able to react in time to be injured by the Three Qi Returning Spirit Art, her face paled and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
“It seems like all of you are really not going to stop until I am dead!”
Not only did the injured Xiong Xiying not show any signs of defeat, but instead, a heart palpitating evil Qi erupted from her body, like an injured beast choosing its prey, causing the hearts of Lang Xian and Cultivator Pei to sink.
A strange trembling sound suddenly came from behind Xiong Xiying, Spirit Master Pei was still confused, but Lang Xian on the other side had his expression changed, and exclaimed: “Jian Yin, you actually mastered the Flying Sword Spirit Art!”
“Flying Sword Spirit Art, impossible!”
Although Cultivator Pei was not as knowledgeable as Lang Xian, the Sirius Gate, he clearly knew the basics of the Flying Sword Spirit Technique. It was as if he found it hard to believe that Xiong Xiying had mastered the art of flying swords.
Not only were the two cultivators surnamed Pei and Lang Xian, but even his junior apprentice brother who was fighting alongside him seemed to find it hard to believe after hearing Lang Xian’s shout.
Xiong Xiying laughed sinisterly, her fingers changing seals. It should be the spirit arts of the Imperial Flying Sword Sect, the sword aura of the flying sword suddenly increased by three feet, and the previous sword hum was from the sound produced by the rapid trembling of the flying sword, it could be considered a type of sword cry.
The tip of the sword pointed at the two of them. Regardless of whether it was Lang Xian or Cultivator Pei, both of them subconsciously took two steps back.
Xiong Xiying sneered, she pointed at Cultivator Pei and bellowed: “Feng!”
A sharp piercing sound could be heard as the flying sword that was enveloped by the sword beam arrived in front of Cultivator Pei. The already prepared Cultivator Pei put his magic item in front of him, only to hear a crisp sound as it was knocked away.
Cultivator Pei then brought his hands together and formed a seal, raising a flood dragon serpent in front of him with his spiritual power. He twined towards the flying knife but was cut into pieces by the sword beam.
Even though Cultivator Pei couldn’t stop the power of the Sword Spirit Art, he had slowed the speed of the flying sword. A white beam of light flew in from the side and struck the flying sword’s spine, causing the flying sword to fly a few inches away. As it flew past Cultivator Pei’s face, the cold sword intent created a few small holes on his face.
The pale white light, which was sent flying by the flying sword, flew back into Lang Xian’s hand. It turned out to bale, jade-like bone. It was as thick as a human head and as thin as a drumstick.
Xiong Xiying’s gaze contracted as she said coldly: “Wolf drum!”
Although Lang Xian blocked one of Xiong Xiying’s attacks, his face was not the least bit lustful. The life tool wolf drum in his hand was only a High quality magical equipment, but the material it was made from was a Huang Beast’s silver wolf bone. As his cultivation grows, he might even be able to reach the spirit treasure rank in one fell swoop.
But even so, under Xiong Xiying’s Sword Spirit Arts, she could only barely defend herself. This was because Xiong Xiying’s Sword Spirit Arts was obviously not one of the top 10 techniques.
However, there were no clear boundaries between the different categories, and there were often intersections among them. For example, the magnetic light of Yang Junshan’s Destiny Soul Art, could be considered as either an auxiliary type or an offensive type of spirit art, and even the magnetic light itself had a considerable defensive power.
Sword Spirit Techniques could be considered as one of the three thousand types of Spirit Techniques and sword arts. It specifically referred to various Spirit Techniques and sword arts. However, since the majority of sword arts and techniques relied on offensive techniques and supernatural powers, sword arts could be considered as one of the offensive techniques and supernatural powers.
Amongst the offensive techniques and sacred arts rankings in the cultivation world, the sword arts and sacred arts alone occupied three places among the top ten. Amongst the top twenty places, the sword arts and sacred arts also occupied five places.
Of course, the true power of the Sword Spirit Art could only be multiplied after it was combined with the Flying Sword Art. If one was like Xiong Xiying who had trained the sword art to the point of producing sword beams, and the sword cries accompanied the Imperial Cult, the Sword Spirit Art’s might would be even more terrifying.
Although Xiong Xiying had used her sword art and shocked two cultivators of the same cultivation level in one go, she had only gained the upper hand by a little. Wanting to rely on her Sword Spirit Technique to obtain the Scarlet Essence Fruit Tree was obviously not realistic, but luckily she had already obtained six Scarlet Essence Fruits, and at this time, the cave was already in danger, if she stayed any longer, it would be hard to not attract the attention of the Adept Realm Cultivator.
“The two of you, right now, neither of us can do anything to the other. If I, Xiong Shou, and the other two leave, I’ll leave the Red Essence Fruit Tree to the two of you. How about it?”
The cultivator surnamed Pei laughed coldly, “You have a good idea. We don’t want the Red Essence Fruit Tree anymore, but our brothers here have died under your sneak attack, so your six Red Essence Fruits will be split between me and them!”
Xiong Xiying saw that Lang Xian and the Pei cultivator were already standing in front of the corpse of the fellow sect disciple, and that there were three Scarlet Essence Fruits on his body, which showed that Xiong Xiying had no choice but to agree, hence she nodded and said: “Alright, if there is time in the future, I will seek guidance from the two of you!”
