Chapter 911: Chapter 444: The Snipe and the Clam Grapple, the Fisherman Benefits_2
Seeing the silence around him, and the Fire God Temple disciple’s certain belief that someone was near, the black-clad youth in the Dragon Scale ancient tree furrowed his brows slightly and, after contemplating for a moment, still chose to step out.
Realizing that there indeed was someone, the Fire God Temple disciple was slightly taken aback but soon a confident smile surfaced on his face, “I am Qin Ming from the Fire God Temple. May I ask which sect you are from, my friend? Would you like to get acquainted?”
“Trying to probe my background so that you can seek revenge later?” The black-clad youth drew his sword and said coldly, “You now have two choices, leave or die.”
“My friend, are you sure you wouldn’t reconsider? Many senior brothers and elders from my Fire God Temple have entered this secret realm,” Qin Ming threatened.
“Since you’ve chosen death, then don’t blame me for being heartless.” The black-clad youth moved swiftly, his long sword sweeping out in a motion that enveloped the sky with sword Qi.
...
Seeing this, Qin Ming’s complexion turned gloomy and unsightly. Usually, just by mentioning the Fire God Temple, most cultivators would keep a respectful distance, but today this unbeatable identity lost its effect.
But there was no way he would give up the Spirit-Loving Flower. With a shift in his stance, a terrifyingly powerful aura burst forth, mixed with frightening flames, and he lashed out violently.
The Cultivation Techniques and Divine Abilities of the Fire God Temple were notoriously fierce and wild, and Qin Ming’s assault was exceptionally ferocious, instantly reducing the surrounding woods to ashes.
However, the black-clad youth remained unharmed, carrying a cold sword radiance with him as he struck, his speed unbelievably quick.
Qin Ming tried to muster all his strength to perform Divine Abilities with his hands and block the attack.
Thump!
A dazzling Sword Light burst out from the sea of fire, piercing through Qin Ming’s body.
“I, I couldn’t even take one of his moves?”
Looking at the huge hole in his chest, Qin Ming’s eyes were filled with disbelief.
“A disciple of the Fire God Temple, that’s all you are.” The black-clad youth sheathed his sword, murmuring.
Boom!
Suddenly, the residual sword Qi within Qin Ming’s body exploded outwards, with blood scattering everywhere.
A gentle breeze passed by, lifting the hair of the black-clad youth and revealing a cold, gaunt face with a long scar on his left cheek.
For an expert at the True Spirit Realm, healing a scar like that would be an easy task, but the black-clad youth had chosen not to do so. This indicated he had his own story.
But at that moment, no one wanted to uncover his story. Lu Yun’s attention was entirely on the last cultivator who had yet to show himself.
He was waiting. Waiting for the two men to fight, regardless of the outcome, he would be the one to emerge as the ultimate victor.
Having killed Qin Ming without hesitation, the black-clad youth strode towards the Spirit-Loving Flower.
A sudden burst of sword sound shattered the stillness of the silent forest. An unknown figure appeared from nowhere behind the black-clad youth just as a splendid and supreme Sword Light manifested.
“Clang!”
At the critical moment, the black-clad youth parried with his sword, the sound of clashing metal erupting instantly.
In an instant, the two were locked in fierce combat.
Both were sword experts, and although they had not yet used their sword domains, their strength was not to be underestimated, having reached around the Second level of the True Spirit Realm at least.
Lu Yun would not have been confident in victory if he faced either of them alone, so he could only wait for a good opportunity.
Despite their intense duel, they remained on high alert for their surroundings. Should Lu Yun show his face, they might join forces against him.
Thus, he had to wait for one to defeat the other.
Whoever came out on top wouldn’t be in good shape by then.
At that time, it would be his chance to strike decisively and dominate the situation.
Clang, clang, clang!!
A series of fierce clashing sounds could be heard. In just a short while, the surrounding trees were ravaged by powerful sword Qi into a sorry state.
The battle between the two had lasted over dozens of moves, with no sign of victory in sight, which made Lu Yun grow increasingly anxious.
Dragging on too long would not only attract more people, it would affect his next plan.
In this land teeming with treasures, every minute wasted was too precious.
“Holy Light Sword Technique!” Suddenly, a purple-clad youth let out a fierce shout. The long sword in his hand emitted a blinding light. With one slash, an incredibly dazzling Sword Light illuminated heaven and earth, aimed directly at the black-clad youth.
“His strength has increased by more than fifty percent in an instant?” The black-clad youth’s expression became extremely grim.
If he continued to fight, he would inevitably be no match for his opponent and might even be severely injured.
In this land rife with crisis, if he were to be seriously injured, not to mention searching for opportunities, even self-preservation would be problematic.
With this in mind, the young man in black gradually began to entertain the idea of retreat.
After the young man in purple employed the Holy Light Swordsmanship, his strength surged dramatically. He stepped forward and thrust out his long sword, the sword light remaining as dazzling as ever, triggering an even more powerful fluctuation.
After forcibly blocking a sword strike, the young man in black couldn’t help but grunt, a hint of cherry red gracing the corner of his mouth.
Reluctantly glancing at the Spirit-Loving Flower, he withdrew without hesitation.
Once he confirmed that the other was heading toward the distant lake, the young man in purple breathed a sigh of relief. The opponent was strong, and had he not possessed the Holy Light Swordsmanship, it would have been extremely difficult to repel him.
“Heaven and Earth Draw Saber Slash!”
Lu Yun drew his saber and slashed in an instant, and with one strike, the heavens were shocked and the spirits wept.
The winds howled and clouds surged in the sky as the striking brilliance of the Blade Aura fell, attacking the young man in purple with a speed that obliterated all in its path.
“Huh?”
The young man in purple’s soul nearly fled his body, not expecting someone to play the cuckoo in the nest, striking at this critical moment and catching him completely off guard.
More importantly, he felt a strong threat emanating from this strike.
“The power of this slash is not inferior to my full-force use of the Holy Light Swordsmanship. I can’t take it head-on!”
In this crucial moment, he gritted his teeth and shook his long sword, creating a sky filled with sword light that he slashed forward. Simultaneously, he pulled out a massive shield to guard the front, while his body rapidly retreated.
Boom!
The Blade Aura directly extinguished the sword light and then slashed down irresistibly, striking the massive shield.
The shield, nearly of upper-grade spirit weapon quality, shattered into pieces, and the towering trees around were affected by the Blade Aura, collapsing one after the other, causing spectacular turmoil.
The young man in purple was also hit by the residual sword Qi, his purple clothes blasted to shreds, with several wounds opening up on his body.
Almost simultaneously, after Lu Yun delivered the astonishing slash, nine rays of golden light burst from the center of his forehead, releasing the God-Killing Blade.
The God-Killing Blade tore through the air, striking the young man in purple with incredible accuracy, causing severe damage to both his consciousness and physical body.
Right after, Lu Yun flashed forward, his whole body enveloped in thunder, with terrifying and savage thunder permeating the Blood Slaughter Blade as well.
Demon Slaying God-Killing Saber!
With a slash, thunder ravaged and Blade Aura dominated.
Boom!
The body of the young man in purple exploded, and he died instantly.
Within a single encounter, Lu Yun had killed a cultivator of the Second level of the True Spirit Realm, feeling somewhat satisfied with his achievement.
The patience and perseverance he needed from the start, the precise timing of his strike, the decisiveness, and ruthlessness had all been essential. Without any one of these elements, it would have been difficult for him to kill his opponent; at best, he could have inflicted a serious injury and forced him to flee.
A failed ambush resulting in an escapee would undoubtedly create a life-and-death enemy, which was not an outcome Lu Yun wished to see.
Therefore, whenever he chose to take action, he must kill his opponent.
In the end, the result was as he had anticipated—moreover, it was even easier than he expected.
After quickly picking the Spirit-Loving Flower, Lu Yun also collected a few spirit weapons left on the ground and rapidly vanished from the spot.
…
“It’s no wonder this is the Heavenly End Secret Realm. Not only is the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi rich here, making cultivation twice as effective, but there are also spirit herbs everywhere,” several cultivators exclaimed excitedly.
In front of them, there was a clear and transparent lake with spiritual energy continually steaming up from the surface, and waves of medicinal fragrance emanating from the vicinity.
To the right of the lake stood a mountain vibrant with flowing colors, thick with green vines.
Even higher up, there were bizarrely shaped ancient pines standing vertically on the steep cliffs, reflecting on the lake, creating a stunningly beautiful scene akin to an Immortal Realm.
