Chapter 110: 110: Ice Shards Gather Array!
Azure Finch was a Sentient Yin Sword. Although it’s genderless by nature, somehow, Ash could feel its happiness when Ash addressed the sword as a female. She was used by its previous owner, Ma Yuan, as something akin to Yin Qi Cauldron, he never practically used her in battle, just a convenient tool to gather Yin Qi to strengthen his Cultivation.
However, that was entirely wrong and heartless. The Sentient Sword also has a soul in its blade, and they will grow alongside the wielder.
Presumably, Ma Yuan never knew that Azure Pinch possessed so much potential. Ash, however, knew everything about Azure Finch like the back of his hand.
"Azure Finch! Snow Blizzard!"
Wooosshh!
Notwithstanding the cost of MP that required to activate Azure Finch’s skill, Ash summoned a harrowing Snow Blizzard upon the arena. He didn’t particularly care even if the whole Colosseum would be frozen solid as long as he could penetrate Yinping’s aura shield.
In just a matter of seconds, half of the Colosseum was covered in white, freezing the ground.
"Bwahahaha! Do you really think this little wind could break my aura shield?! How naive! Die!
Yinping took a step forward while Ash kept channeling his MP which decreased excessively by each passing second. Knowing his opponent was struggling to break the aura shield in front, Yinping leaped high, hoisting the massive hammer above his head.
At this time, Ash smirked wide. When Yinping swung his hammer down, Ash blinked away and appeared behind Yinping’s back. Just as he had guessed, Yinping’s back was defenseless.
"Converge!"
After that command, the [Snow Blizzard] gathered at the very tip of the blade. All Yin Qi in the surrounding air condensed, and then solidified in a flash. Shortly after, it turned into a long and tapered icy blade, capable of piercing any material like a hot knife through butter.
"What is that skill?! Did he just invent a new skill out of the blue?!"
Yinping tried to shift his aura shield, yet it was far too late. In a fraction of seconds, the elongated ice blade had pierced his skin, and all the way to his spine!
Unyielding cold spread in his whole body. "Tsk! Die you coward!"
Although half of his spine was frozen solid, Yinping deliberately dislocated his shoulder joints to swing his hammer toward his behind. Ash didn’t expect that Yinping would do such a desperate move. He was caught off guard and slammed to the ground so hard like a falling meteor. Though the distance was relatively short, the impact force was devastating. Ash suffered a heavy injury from it.
The giant man shove threw his hammer down, trying to capitalize his momentum.
Alas, the young man in a crimson robe was too fast. The hammer hit nothing but the arena’s floor. Knowing that a direct attack couldn’t work against Yinping’s resilient body, Ash opted to try another trick.
He deliberately breaks the ice blade into hundreds of pieces. "Let’s see if my [Feather Sword Gather Array] would work with your [Snow Blizzard], Azure Finch!"
The blue Sentient Sword hummed in excitement. She didn’t show any doubt, and fully trusted his combat instinct.
"Only 300 MP remained. Which means, he only has three seconds to finish the fight! If brute force is not working against his stupid shield, I will attack every possible gap!"
Once the Ice Shards gathered around him, Ash deployed the Ice Shards like hundreds of miniature missiles while trying to deplete Yinping’s aura shield piece by piece.
At first, Yinping was so confident that his shield was impenetrable. However, Ash’s precision strike managed to make a small hole on his aura shield.
Yinping was panicked, he couldn’t regenerate his shield in time. Before he knew it, the Ice Shard had his belly torn open. Ash didn’t stop there. By the time Yinping’s guts throwed out, Ash continued the barrage of ice shards, effectively cutting Yinping’s meridians while at it.
Ash smirked from ear to ear. "Rule number one in fighting: Never throw away your weapon."
In that two seconds time frame, Ash ended the [Snow Blizzard]. He re-equipped Nightflame in his left hand, he jetted out with just a kick to the ground. He stabbed Yinping’s abdomen with Nightflame, burning his guts inside out.
At this very moment, Yinping recognized the Ash’ Yang Qi. It felt just the same compared to what he found at the crater lake. However, it was too late. His sight gradually darkened, and ebb away into oblivion. There’s no soul left in Yinping’s body. Ash made sure to leave his body akin to an empty husk.
There was a short pause in the crowd. They couldn’t possibly comprehend what just happened in the 30th Arena. The next thing they saw, Yinping had crumbled into ashes.
"Wasn’t he just using Yin Qi to fight Yinping’s impenetrable aura shield?! How the hell does his body turn into ashes the next second?!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Your couldn’t possibly follow his movements, and your brains are too dull to comprehend the law."
"I always have this hunch. But it turned out to be true! This Young Lord is a Dual-Cultivation expert! Us, orthodox cultivation, couldn’t possibly grasp his Dao."
Soonly after, the Arena Announcer opened his mouth, "the winner of the first bout on the 30th Arena is Xiao Hûo of Tang Sect!"
At this moment, Ash had put both of his swords into their scabbards, and put them back into his spatial ring. He stumbled backward, unable to move his body even an inch for a brief moment.
Soon, Zhu Yan and Guoqiang stood by the arena. "Let us carry you Young Lord!"
"Shut up, worrywarts. I’m not a kid anymore. Instead of worrying about me, go prepare a meditation space for me at the VIP area. I need some rest after this."
"Right away, Young Lord!"
In that instance, Zhu Yan and Guoqiang had placed a bamboo partition for their Young Lord. Subsequently, Ash returned and sat there in a lotus position.
Initially, Feng Bo, Jie Rong and the others wanted to congratulate him. However, instead of praising him with useless remarks, Feng Bo opted to share a portion of his Yang Qi so he could recover faster.
"Fret not, Young Lord. I have precious herbs that you can use to recover your Yang Qi faster." Jie Rong said. He rummaged through his storage bag hastily. "Please choose whatever you fancy."
Ash smiled. He wanted to reject the offer, but accepting gifts was also one of many ways to build professional courtesy with these seniors.
In front of him were a plethora of Immortal Herbs Pills placed neatly from the lowest to the highest rank. Though they were nothing special with these herbs, Jie Rong really knows his stuff. He purposely chooses the easiest Immortal Herbs to digest in this type of situation instead giving him fancy yet useless Immortal Herbs Pills. From this, Ash acknowledged Jie Rong’s sincerity.
"En. Thank you, Senior. I will take it for granted!" Ash said. "Which one should I choose?"
"Regarding your current condition, [Flame Butterfly Pill would be the best option! It was made from the male Flame Butterfly Wings. I carefully harvested them when they had just finished mating. That way, the Yang Qi is at its purest quality!"
Afterward, Ash took in a [Flame Butterfly Pill]. It was so bitter, and spicy at the same time. However, his heat resistance omitted the side effect almost immediately. In a brief moment, the Pure Yang Qi surged in his veins. Thirty minutes later, Ash’ Pure Yang Qi had fully restored along with his Mana Points.
"Fyuhhh! That was delicious! I never thought that pill cultivation could be this enjoyable!"
Likewise, Feng Bo also concluded his Qi transfering, and sat on his chair, completely exhausted.
However, Jie Rong was simply flabbergasted. "Are you for real, Young Lord?! Did you just absorbed everything in one sitting?!"
"Yes? Why? Have you never seen it before?! I used to absorb twice as much."
"Unbelievable!"
"You better believe, Senior Jie Rong." Feng Bo smirked wryly. His face was as white as a sheet. "This little rascal could store hundreds of thousands strands of Pure Yang Qi easily. Hell, I couldn’t even fathom how big his Dantian is."
"Why are you guys so amazed? What’s so special about it?*
Feng Bo was simply waving his hand while shaking his head. "Nah, forget it, Young Lord. Your talent is clearly out of this world! Explaining every little detail to you is useless anyway. Better yet, you might want to focus on your next opponent."
"And who that person might be?" Ash rose from his seat, looking at the 29th Arena. The winner of the said Arena will fight against him.
"Color me surprised..." Ash smirked from ear to ear. "This is bad, Master Feng Bo. Seems like I’ll have to fight Wang Zhaojun sooner than expected."
Feng Bo almost jumped out of his seat upon hearing that name.
"Wang Zhaojun?! Are you certain?!
"The leaderboard says so." Ash pointed at the big billboard in the main arena with his thumb.
"Oh dear... The worse come to the worst."
