Chapter 459 - 8: Willing to Take the Bait
Chapter 459: Chapter 8: Willing to Take the Bait
Gentlemen seek revenge, ten years is not too late.
But for Sword Cultivators, vengeance shall not last past the night.
The glint of Radiance flashed, and the Dragon Sparrow, which had just slain the elderly cultivator Huang Zhong with one strike, spiraled back into Dongque City, before vanishing into Lu Qingshan’s body.
…..
Countless cultivators and mortals within Dongque City, faced with the sword descending from the heavens and the sudden explosion of the Dongque artifact shop, were all dumbstruck, unaware of what had just happened.
They only knew that today, something major was destined to unfold in Dongque City.
To brazenly kill a Golden Core Cultivator, who managed the artifact shop of the Dongque Tribe, was an act that demanded a response; otherwise, how could they continue to stand in the Mogao Desert?
In such a barbaric land, once power and reputation were lost, they’d be devoured clean by the watchful, hungry wolves.
“Who’s this thief, daring to be so arrogant!” Just a few moments later, a sonorous voice laced with rage erupted from the core area of Dongque City, resonating throughout.
Then, a red Radiance shot up from the ground.
The cultivators in the city, upon hearing this sonorous voice, quietly discussed among themselves.
“Even the Clan Leader of the Dongque is alerted. That’s a major cultivator of the Void Refining Initial Stage…”
In the Mogao Desert’s two largest powers, the nine Clan Leaders of the Nine Tribes Alliance are all Body Cultivators with the Cultivation of the Void Refining Initial Stage.
The leader of the Sand Bandits, the Vulture Elder, has even attained the Cultivation of the Void Refining Middle Stage.
It was for this very reason that these two forces could stand against each other in the Mogao Desert.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in Dongque City, other cultivators from the Dongque Tribe, equally furious, followed their Clan Leader’s trail of red Radiance, rushing out of the city towards Lu Qingshan.
This clearly signified how greatly today’s events had ignited the wrath of the Dongque Tribe.
Indeed, the Dongque Tribe had reigned supreme in the Mogao Desert for so many years, and not even the Vulture Elder had been brazen enough to kill one of their Golden Core Cultivation stewards in broad daylight, within the city.
The red glow halted just before Lu Qingshan, revealing the figure within.
It was a middle-aged cultivator, tall and built, with the visible five-colored sparrow tattoos on his arms.
The middle-aged man glared at the tranquil Lu Qingshan with eyes like flames.
He was Dongque Yan, the Clan Leader of the Dongque Tribe.
The next instant, without exchanging any pleasantries, Dongque Yan made a ruthless move.
In the Mogao Desert, strength is the only reasoning.
Why Lu Qingshan had slain one of their tribesmen was a question to be settled through combat.
If Lu Qingshan could not withstand a single blow, no matter his justification, in Dongque Yan’s eyes, he would not escape death.
The five-colored sparrow totem on Dongque Yan’s hand erupted in a wildfire; he swung his palm, which suddenly swelled dozens of feet, as the Blazing Flame Intent surged out from the Taoist seed within him.
The five-colored sparrow is a Fire Attribute beast, thus the Body Cultivation of the Dongque Tribe, who carry the sparrow totem, usually comprehend Fire Attribute related Intents.
Similarly, it was with the Middle Rank Intent—Blazing Flame Intent—that Dongque Yan had condensed his Taoist seed and progressed into Void Refining.
Under the enhancement of the Blazing Flame Intent, Dongque Yan’s hand transformed into a massive peak of flames, engulfing Lu Qingshan.
The enormous mountain seemed to possess infinite pressure, causing suffocation, dry mouth, and a parched tongue.
Lu Qingshan, too, wasted no words.
True skill is shown through action.
A fierce glint in his eye flashed as he released the Dragon Sparrow and simultaneously retreated, creating distance between them.
Confident though he was, Lu Qingshan did not behave recklessly.
When facing off against a Void Refining Cultivator a whole Rank higher than oneself, one must rely on the Taoist Artifact, the Dragon Sparrow Sword, to contend.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of explosions thundered from the sky as the Dragon Sparrow emerged, its blade also flickering with wildfire radiance.
The Flying Sword, like thunder and an unstoppable tide, ferociously bombarded the gigantic palm that struck down.
As the Dragon Sparrow collided with the hand transformed into a peak of flames, ripples visible to the naked eye spread instantaneously, impacting all directions.
This aftermath was like a cloud of fire blooming in the sky, leaving those within the city who witnessed this spectacle in awe.
The Flying Sword was repelled, and the fiery mountain crumbled.
Dongque Yan could feel an infinite strength transferred from the Flying Sword as it collided with his palm, even sensing the sharp intent emanating from the Flying Sword, threatening to pierce through his sun refining body, cultivated to great completion.
“Such a powerful Intent…” Dongque Yan’s heart tightened. With his Cultivation and experience, he understood clearly that the sharp intent came from the power of Intent, “And why does his Flying Sword seem to ignore the force of my Blazing Flame Intent?”
It was precisely because the Flying Sword had ignored his Blazing Flame Intent that, despite being significantly more powerful than Lu Qingshan, the exchange ended up in a stalemate. @@novelbin@@
Of course, he was unaware that the Dragon Sparrow Sword was immune to a hundred fires.
In front of the Dragon Sparrow, all attacks carrying the Fire Attribute would be disregarded.
The Dragon Sparrow only needed to contest the strength of the attacks themselves.
“This Sword Cultivator can actually fight to a draw with our Clan Leader?!” The other cultivators from the Dongque Tribe were shocked at this scene, “It seems our Clan Leader won’t be able to take down this arrogant youngster in a short time?”
“Good, good, good!” Watching Lu Qingshan, whose expression was unchanged, Dongque Yan laughed in anger and roared, “Take another of my moves.”
This time, Dongque Yan gave his all, showing no mercy.
