Chapter 16: Is this the intent of the sword? No! It's the soul of the sword!

  "Jin An, what's going on outside? Why have so many people suddenly arrived?"

  Gu Mingyue's divine consciousness swept across the scene, seeing a large crowd of people and horses congested within the mountain gate of Huashan. Her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, and in her glance, the aura of a great country's princess naturally flowed out.

  "Regarding Miss's words, the old slave has already investigated those people outside. The highest cultivation is only in the middle of the Golden Elixir stage, which is not worth worrying about. According to what they said, it seems that a madman from Chu State named Yizui came to challenge One Drunken, seeking revenge for past shame."

  Jin An seemed to be waiting at the side all the time, and Gu Mingyue asked a question and he came out, only when mentioning one drunk, there was a slight delay, probably still can't forget the loss suffered under one drunk.

  "Is this Chu Kuang the same one who suddenly disappeared two years ago?"

  Gu Mingyue suddenly heard the somewhat familiar name of Chu Kuang and became slightly interested.

  "It was that person, just now I slightly used my skills to search the soul of Chu Kuang's personal guard and unexpectedly learned that two years ago, Chu Kuang had his cultivation ruined by a drunkard, which led to him being silent for two years. During these two years, Chu Kuang seemed to have recovered his cultivation, pointing directly at the realm of forming elixirs, so today he came seeking revenge."

  Jin An's eyes flashed with a hint of divine light, his tone was rather calm, but it was impossible to guess what he was thinking in his heart. "However, those fools from Chu State seem to be unaware that one drunk is the son of King Liang!"

  Gu Mingyue heard Jin An say this, the teacup paused under her bright red lips, and the moon-like eyes sparkled with excitement. She thought to herself that it was worth staying here shamelessly, as it seemed that Jin An's ability to dissolve the test on that day was not due to relying on treasures, but because he truly had such strength! Hehe, all countries think that the son of King Liang is a person with average talent, who would have thought that he was hiding his true abilities? However, this has made it difficult for her. She had hoped to have a surprise, and now that the surprise has come, she is at a loss. What kind of person is this husband of hers, after all?

  "Jin An, you'd better go take a look. If there's any danger, don't hesitate to sell out before those old monks make their move."

  Although Gu Mingyue was slightly bewildered in her heart, it did not affect her from making some decisions. In Hualei Mountain, she believed that there were many old monks who even Lian Jinan couldn't see through, so nothing unexpected should happen. After all, at the Yuanying stage, the soul leaving the body is just a matter of an instant. Chu Kuang's cultivation was not low, and it wouldn't be possible for him to instantly kill Yizui in two years of practice. Of course, if she knew that Chu Kuang had cultivated the Blood Method, she wouldn't have been so careless. After all, the magic tribe's techniques were famous for their astonishing explosive power.

  The characteristics of the Orthodox cultivators are that they have a strong spiritual power and a long breath, and prolonged entanglement is more conducive to the display of the Orthodox cultivators. The blood method of the demon clan is too intense, sometimes absorbing the blood gas of others into one move, although it can easily cause harm to their own body, but often bursts out with astonishing combat power. Finally, the demon clan is the most mysterious, and the innate gods of the demon clan often have unexpected effects.

  Jin An and Gu Mingyue's ideas coincided, but the final decision still needs to be discussed. However, showing a little kindness during this period will never harm the ultimate choice.

  The two were still in the midst of negotiations, but they never expected that Chu Kuang and Zui would have a face-to-face encounter that would trigger the most intense conflict. In an instant, Zui's small courtyard completely collapsed, and both Zui and Chu Kuang had already broken through to the Jie Dan realm. Standing in mid-air for a short time was not a problem at all, but the newly-promoted Ling Mai realm's magic treasure was miserable.

  Fa Bao was still in the alchemy room gloating over the misfortune of others when suddenly his feet felt empty, and he felt like his body had lost its balance and was weightless. It was as if he were flying on a sword and suddenly fell off, but this feeling was ten or even a hundred times more intense. After all, when flying on a sword, one is always on guard against accidents, unlike this landslide which came without warning.

  Life and death hung in the balance, and Fobao felt his heartbeat slow down. Boom, boom, boom, it was like a big drum beating in his ear, and he even clearly heard his drunken master's words "My knife is underground!" Then, suddenly coming to his senses, he burst into tears instantly. No wonder there would be a landslide, it turned out that he had been tricked by his own master!

  Treasured Law, can't you just not die young like this? You still have a great life to live! Treasured Law was encouraging himself on one hand and forcing himself to calm down on the other.

  "Law treasure, let spiritual power emanate from the body surface, forming a protective aura around you. Remember, you are now a Condensed Pulse Cultivator!"

  Suddenly, the familiar voice of his drunken master sounded like a great bell in his ear, "Ah, Fa Bao, you are already a Condensing Pulse Cultivator!"

  Condensed Pulse Masters can not only release spiritual energy externally, but also use it for defense. Once they reach the realm of Condensed Pulse, even without the aid of magical tools, they can still attack and defend simultaneously, greatly increasing their chances of survival in perilous situations.

  Fa Bao has just been promoted to a Condensing Pulse Cultivator, and his mind hasn't had time to fully accept the fact that he is already a Condensing Pulse Cultivator. He still needs to consolidate his cultivation.

  Between life and death, there was great terror. The law treasure calmed down in extreme tension, and his solid foundation made him even more calm and composed at this moment.

  The majestic spiritual power circulated throughout his body, forming a transparent protective aura on the surface of his body. Although it was somewhat thin, it had no problem protecting him from falling from dozens of meters in height without getting hurt.

  In this life-and-death situation, time passed so slowly, but the law treasure unexpectedly benefited from the disaster and thoroughly consolidated the condensation of the meridian in such a short period of time. Moreover, his mental state also received an extremely great tempering.

  Although he was drunk and distracted, it did not affect his fighting at all. One Drunken's spiritual awareness became exceptionally strong due to the vastness of his spiritual sea, even Jin An Yuanying's cultivation in this aspect was no match for One Drunken.

  Chu's eyes saw the intense will lose its effect, but instead triggered a drunk and desperate all-out attack. The sword that was used as a decoy was immediately thrown away by him, one right hand quickly turned into sand, blood red everywhere, in the blink of an eye it became a bloody hand.

  As expected, he has cultivated the Blood Technique!

  He secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately Mu Rong Xue reminded him, otherwise he might have been caught off guard and fallen into the trap.

  I don't know where Chu Kuang got the Blood Technique from, but the Demon Clan and the Orthodox Cultivators have always been at odds with each other. Not to mention whether the Demon Clan would introduce the Blood Technique into the Cultivation World, it's already a miracle that Chu Kuang was able to cultivate the Blood Technique for two years in the Cultivation World without being discovered.

  The earth cracked and the mountain collapsed, exposing a massive block of thousand-year-old black ice. The enormous volume was eerily suspended in mid-air, emitting a chilling aura that pierced to the bone.

  The origin of this piece of Wannian Xuanbing is quite extraordinary, and for the sake of this piece of Wannian Xuanbing, I got drunk with Da Tou Yu Xiao Pang for nearly a month.

  At that time, one drunk sat on Xiaopang's body and headed towards Xiao Jin Island. In the distance, a huge floating iceberg was slowly drifting from the direction of the South Sea towards them.

  I was just curious to take a look, after all, the icebergs that drifted from the southernmost part of the South China Sea had basically melted by the time they reached this coastal area. Suddenly seeing such a huge floating iceberg made me exclaim in surprise, and I didn't expect that upon closer inspection, the huge floating iceberg turned out to be a precious millennium-old glacial ice.

  Yi Zui and Xiao Pang were busy until they almost turned white-eyed, when they finally circled back from the inner river to push Xuan Bing back to Hualian Mountain, where he was used to nurture his long knife.

  When he poured his divine consciousness into the mysterious ice, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart. This sense of mutual understanding gave him immense encouragement. After nurturing his sword for a thousand days, today was the day to test its sharpness and drink blood!

  Chu Kuang's eyes looked at Yi Zui, who was still distracted at this time, and his heart was also very excited. Although he didn't know why Yi Zui had taken the initiative to attack first just now, he believed that Yi Zui wouldn't have known that he had cultivated the Blood Technique beforehand, so he was confident that he could catch Yi Zui off guard.

  He had already seen that scene where his bloody hand would thoroughly imprison the drunk, so let the drunk's blood become a great supplement to his cultivation!

  He can't wait anymore.

  That terrifying bloody hand came out of nowhere, swift as a thunderclap. With a drunken face and a concentrated expression, he stared at Chu Kuang, but there was not a hint of panic.

  Suddenly, the bloody hand seemed to inflate like a balloon, swelling to hundreds of times its original size in an instant. With just a light grasp, one would be caught by this bloody hand.

  Chu's heart was filled with unbridled joy, far surpassing the pleasure he had derived from slaughtering his own brothers. With such proximity, Yu had already become his prey.

  Time seems to have stopped at this moment, and all that can be heard is the sound of one's own heavy breathing. Jiuyi and Chukuang are both concentrating their minds to the extreme point. It is Chukuang's bloody hand that has completely trapped Jiuyi, or will Jiuyi make a comeback and take control of his fate? Destiny will be revealed in this moment.

  The moment the huge bloody hand touched the corner of his wine-stained clothes, Chu Kuang seemed to feel his heart stop for a second. His excitement had stimulated him so much that his eyes were bloodshot, and his craving for fresh blood made every pore on his body cheer.

  But fate seemed to have played a trick on Chu Kuang, the Xuanbing shattered, and the dazzling knife light injured his eyes. A white light that seemed to cut across the sky brought him the deepest pain, as if his primordial soul had been cut in half. The pain made Chu Kuang let out a blood-curdling scream. He hadn't even reacted yet to what had happened, he only knew that his right hand was gone, completely gone!

  Is this a knife?

  No! It's the spirit of the sword!

  Finally reacting, Chu Kuang's soul was shocked and his face could no longer hold back a look of extreme astonishment.

  How is this possible? Chu Kuang felt that he must have gone mad, all he knew was that Li Shengfeng had cultivated a sword soul in the Mahayana realm, and that one sword's cold light had been unparalleled in the fourteen states at the time. Now, however, he had witnessed a knife soul here, unfortunately, he wasn't just an onlooker this time.

  Covering the smooth wound, Chu Kuang's mind had no other thoughts, just one word, escape! If he didn't escape now, he would undoubtedly die, and with a broken arm, he wouldn't have even half a chance.
