Chapter 172: Chapter 172 Sword nourishing sword accumulating

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Although the sword energy had dissipated, the power of ice and fire, as well as purple lightning, still remained. It had directly opened up a several hundred feet long hole.

Not just the Ye Family sisters’ eyes were attracted to the sword energy’s origin point.

Even Chou Ling was startled, his mouth agape.

The strong and overbearing sword attack had destroyed everything in its path! Even the surrounding spiritual energy was totally wiped out, the spiraling sword light seems to have cut through both heaven and earth.

Chou Ling couldn’t help but feel numb, goosebumps rising all over his body.

He didn’t carefully watch the intense battle between Zong Shou and Yun Xu, though he did know that his vast and mighty sword attack was something even a Peak Martial Ancestor with six meridians at the Earth Chakra level couldn’t face head on! It was truly unstoppable and unashamedly strong!

His eyes started twitching as a feeling of extreme danger surged into his heart. From the wind current covering the sky ahead of him appeared a cold glow, which instantly arrived in front of him. It was a Cloud Pattern Flying Knife, its cold glow shining brightly, seemingly indiscernible.

“...It’s the Cloud Shocking God Destroying Sword Intent!”

Almost right away Chou Ling had sensed the martial intent on the throwing knife.

Not bothering with the two girls in front of him that were about to fall into his hands, he retreated, frenziedly backing off by a distance of six hundred feet.

His eyes never left the tip of the knife from start to finish, trying his best to discern the trajectory of the illusionary knife. At last, his eyes widened, and he utilized his fingers to clip it. A throwing knife without a handle instantly appeared at his fingertips, though its momentum had not disappeared and it continued to shake.

Just when Chou Ling heaved a sigh of relief, the throwing knife suddenly exploded, breaking into a thousand pieces. Among which, one part of it pierced through his fingertips, suddenly increasing its speed by several times and heading right for his throat!

“...This is a hidden energy explosion?”

Chou Ling’s face instantly turned ashen white, moving his head to the side at the crucial moment, barely avoiding the knife slitting his throat. The knife shrapnel still pierced through his left shoulder, drawing a thread of blood.

Even with his strong mental strength he couldn’t help but take a deep cold breath.

What kind of cultivation technique did the Gantian Mountain Prince learn? Hiding energy within, and only allowing it to explode until a thousand feet later. Is there something wrong with him...?”

That’s right, how could he so easily forget what happened that day in the forest?! Although the sword energy was hidden and activated by himself, it had been hidden for half a day.

He didn’t have any more fighting spirit in his heart. He looked at the sky full of blood and flesh pieces in the distance with pity. His senior brother could be considered a vicious person, but he was also really smart. It was quite a shame for him to die here.

His eyes constricted as he saw something that instilled absolute fear into him. Zong Shou made the sword light in his hand disappear, a ball of green smoke rising from the back of his head.

It was compass-sized and wrapped with purple lightning. Even in the blazing afternoon heat, it showed no fear. The smoke seemed to encapsulate three talismans, grabbing the Lightning Tooth Sword and swiftly bringing it back.

“You are a spirit master of the Out of Body Realm? No...wait! Three Spiritual True Talismans, an extremely pure soul power, you’re a spirit master of the Night Wandering Realm!”

He cursed continuously, his eyes on the verge of collapse. All he felt was despair, never having felt it spread so rampantly through his heart before.

He gave up on all thoughts of escaping. A spirit master’s soul could roam numerous miles in a single breath, meaning it was far stronger than that of martial cultivators. Even if he wanted to run he might not be able to escape.

He immediately put on on a white silk glove. The energy around his body exploded out in that instant, charging into his limbs and meridians as all the pores in his body burst open.

Just as Zong Shou’s soul rushed into the sky, Chou Ling roared, the energy and vital energy in his body soaring, gathering all his true qi and strength and punching toward the air.

He had no way out of this battle! Only by using all his energy could he have even a chance of surviving.

Zong Shou’s soul didn’t worry about the development, his mind still cold and determined. The vital energy charged forth, yet before it even got close it exploded into pieces due to the purple lightning. It still caused some slight harm to his soul though, spreading an igneous pain that should have caused some discomfort.

However, it didn’t affect him at all as he was still cold as ice. When the sword light chopped down, it remained a giant spiral, still turning as it chopped downward!

Before when he fought Yun Xu his sword attack was just overbearing, but now it was destructive and suppressive! Total destruction!

Using his Xiantian body, even with an external pill, he couldn’t exceed forty-five thousand kilograms of strength. However, at this moment using the soul to drive the sword meant he could use a full one hundred thousand kilograms of power!

Sword and fist collided, immediately resulting in a series of smashing sounds.

Chou Ling’s hand was made of blood and flesh, though the silk gloves were something spiritual weapons found hard to damage. But in just ten clashes his bones broke, unnaturally twisting. The ice and fire qualities of the sword attack also instantly surged into him!

The sword attack appeared to be even more overbearing. The Ye Family sisters personally witnessed the spiraling sword image with ashen white faces as it cut Chou Ling’s body into pieces ten times smaller than fingertips. The pieces flew all around, dyeing three hundred feet of snow blood red.

And the spiraling sword attack didn’t stop there once it struck the ground. Another loud explosion occurred, and it seemed as though the entirety of heaven was shaking. Dust and sand flew up from the ground while pieces of broken ice shot up.

Once the dust had settled, there was actually a thousand-foot wide hole.

Zong Shou’s soul flew up once more, bringing with it a slight wind as it instantly returned to his body.

Ye Feishuang and Ye Feihan didn’t shift their eyes as they looked toward the giant hole, stunned.

They felt like there were no words that could describe what they were feeling, as they could only look on from a distance.

Ye Feishuang’s heart was flashing with similar thoughts to that of Chou Ling.

Zhou Ling was actually a spirit master with three True Spiritual Talismans, and his soul had completed its change in nature. He was a True Night Wandering Realm spirit master equal to Martial Ancestors!

This normal looking teen she thought was a miner, was not just someone who killed Xiantians like they were dogs. His martial path and sword skills were deep enough to fight elite Martial Ancestors. Even his spiritual cultivation was so developed!

How terrifying a person did they meet in the water fairy lake?

When Zong Shou returned back to his body, he casually waved and made the Demon-Eye Silver Bear beside him return back into his sleeves.

While he contemplated when to unseal the beast, he frowned, using his hand to hit his head to try to ease his headache.

Chou Ling’s vital energy didn’t give him many problems, as unironically it was his own sword that had hurt him.

When the sword attack exploded, his soul was unable to avoid it. Although he didn’t face the brunt of it, it was still enough to damage his soul.

Turning around and taking a look at the two craters he had created, Zong Shou was speechless.

Failure!

Although the sword attack was strong, he was unable to focus it, meaning it was a failure. In the end, he was also unable to control it, resulting in his second failure. With the situation that he was in, Yun Xu had nearly turned the tables. If he didn’t use his Six God Defensive Knife Technique the enemy would have killed him instead. Then, when he killed Chou Ling he was so stupid he hurt himself.

Luckily at this moment, there was no one else looking. The two girls hadn’t reached a high enough level and were unable to see through it. If not, he would have lost all his face.

His World Shocking Sword wasn’t ready to be used and still needed to be perfected.

Yun Xu’s sword really was at a high standard though. He believed that his World Shocking Sword could take any life in one breath, yet he had blocked it for five breaths. He didn’t rely on the Cruel Demon Sunflower Sword but purely on his sword skills.

“Even if he didn’t cultivate in the Cruel Demon Sunflower Sword, he would only be weaker than Li Yaling. Unfortunately, he decided to do that to his lower body...”

Sighing slightly, Zong Shou looked back at the two sisters only to see that Ye Feihan’s mouth was being covered by Ye Feishuang, the latter’s eyes filled with wariness.

Zong Shou was startled and then burst out laughing. Waving his sleeves, the Black Wave Sword flew back through the air and into his sleeves.

“Take care of yourselves ladies, don’t stay here for too long. I won’t stay here for much longer. I can protect you once but not twice. I will take my leave!”

Not saying anything more, Zong Shou turned around and left. Like usual he was swinging his hands and walking, releasing the same mechanical sound.

However, halfway there he heard Ye Feishuang shout, “Wait up!”

Zong Shou was too lazy to bother with her, yet, after another thousand feet, a whistling sound came from behind him. His eyebrows raised as he casually caught the cause of the sound, and it turned out there were two things. One of them was fist-sized, circular, shiny and smooth.

Looking at it closer, the item was a transparent crystal ball. On the outside were spiritual patterns, and inside it was a sword-like shape letting off a distinct glow.

The other thing was a stone that looked really normal and indistinguishable, that was pure black in color.

“These are items my mom obtained from a sword cultivator. A Sword Nourishing Stone and a Sword Accumulating Pearl. These two items can be considered payment for you saving us today!”

Ye Feishuang revealed a cold intent, “In case you say that we sisters don’t know how to repay kindness!”

The corner of Zong Shou’s lips uncontrollably arced upwards, smiling as he stored the items.

He wasn’t so stupid as to throw these away. Such benefits naturally couldn’t be declined.

If he didn’t get these two treasures today, he might not be able to in the future.

He shook his head and laughed. He continued moving forward like a wooden puppet, only this time his speed was much faster.
