Arc 3: Part 22
The Mirror of Soul Power disintegrated in a puff under the uncontrollable spiritual aura. Lu Han Yuanjun and others simply gathered their power and leaped up, stepping on their swords and rushing out of the sect.
Several powerhouses with divine abilities had reached their primes. Almost in a flash, they turned into bright lights and arrived in front of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave!
"Bai Tong, you're courting death!"
The overwhelming pressure pressed down on her like the sky. The anger of the sect leaders and elders was like a violently skylit storm. With a wave of their hands, a magnificent wave of spiritual power was thrown at her!
"You want to kill her… in front of me?"
Tian Xuanzi sneered lightly, his eyes mocking as he swung his wide sleeve, pulled Tong Su into his arms, and firmly protected her behind a spiritual energy barrier.
As he did this, he spread his five fingers, and his Chi Ming sword rushed to the sky, turning into a fire dragon, viciously slashing towards the sect master and elders!
"Ah!"
The heads and elders hastily retreated, scrambling to fend off the sword's intentions with their hands. Instantly, when spiritual energy and demonic power collided, it caused enormous waves and nearly tore apart the sky. The ghoulish wailing from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave was piercing. Cracks seemed to appear in the fabric of the world itself from the tearing!
Tong Su, protected by Tian Xuanzi, felt an intense killing intent rushing towards her. Her eyes stung with piercing pain. She quickly closed them and turned her head, raising her hand to shield herself—
Now she only had the cultivation of the peak of foundation building, and fundamentally could not look directly at the heavenly Dao sword intent contained within the swing of the sword by the Mahayana cultivator.
If one tried to see forcefully, it might instantly destroy their spiritual consciousness and shatter their sea of qi.
It was like the few Jin Dan disciples from the Ziwei Heavenly Palace nearby. Unlike her, they didn't have the protection of Tian Xuanzi. At this moment, they were bleeding from their seven orifices and had fainted on the ground.
Even those few demon cultivators had turned pale and were staggering backward.
Tong Su's cultivation was still weak. She couldn't gauge what had changed in Tian Xuanzi's strength, now that he had lost the spirit roots nurtured by the Jinwu Ling Fire.
However, the most obvious change was his golden-red flame. It had lost the nourishment of Jinwu Fire, completely becoming soaked by the demonic qi, turning a dense black more intense than ink, with a slightly light blue hue at its top.
"Tian Xuanzi! Your cultivation––you've just escaped from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave, how could your cultivation recover so quickly!"
Lu Han Yuan Jun had forcefully intercepted that swing of Tian Xuanzi's sword. Her chest roiled with surges of qi and blood. She spat out blood, her vision darkening, and shockingly fell from the air.
A few elders with divine abilities hurriedly caught her from behind, preventing the honorable master of Ziwei Heavenly Palace from disgracefully falling to the ground.
Tian Xuanzi raised an eyebrow, calling back his Chi Ming sword openly and honestly, letting it float in front of Tong Su.
The crimson long sword obediently restrained its flickering flames, careful not to hurt the young girl. The sword hilt seemed to move intelligently, waving its black tassels in a fairly dashing and carefree manner.
"It's not that I recovered too quickly, but that you are too weak — Don't you still have wounds unhealed from when you fought against me together a few days ago?" said Tian Xuanzi. His tone was casual, but the undisguised mockery in his words infuriated the masters, making their faces flush and their bodies tremble.
What a jerk!
Truly a brazen character who kills with words!
However, a strong sense of resentment rose in the hearts of the masters.
What Tian Xuanzi said was not mere arrogance — he truly had the capital to be haughty.
From the major battle a few days ago, everyone was covered in injuries, with Tian Xuanzi even gravely falling into the Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave.
Yet after only a couple of days, while their injuries had only just started to heal a bit, not only had Tian Xuanzi burst out from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Demon Cave, but he had also removed his spirit roots.
However, his current show of power indicated that his cultivation and strength had not been affected in the slightest!
It's as if all his wounds had healed instantly, leaving not even a trace of darkness or lingering internal injuries…
