Remould the Glory of Sword Art -
Chapter 79 - 79 71 Massacre Third Update!
79: Chapter 71: Massacre (Third Update!) 79: Chapter 71: Massacre (Third Update!) “However…
I can guarantee.”
“Today, none of you seated here will leave with your corpses intact.”
Xie Xuanyi’s voice echoed within the stone walls.
As the Burning Light Talismans hung high, forming a canopy above, the South Border cultivators each took out their Lifebound Artifacts.
They exhaled jet-black Primordial Energy from their apertures, turning it into streams of black smoke that shot straight up to the ceiling!
In just a few breaths’ time, the area covered by the talisman had become engulfed in a dark haze.
Xie Xuanyi’s expression remained unchanged.
He twisted his wrist slightly, generating a series of crisp sounds like popping beans all over his body.
“Crack-crack…”
Just at that moment, a strange noise came from the shattered stone wall beside him.
The thin ghoul that had been embedded in the stone wall without any movement for a long while suddenly shot out its hand like lightning, grabbing Xie Xuanyi’s ankle in one swift motion.
“Xie Zhen!”
The ghoul grinned and said, “They say you are a disciple of some big shot from the Imperial City?
Is it true or not?”
“What true or not.”
Xie Xuanyi replied with a cold laugh, “If they said I’m your dad, would you believe that too?”
Just one sentence, and the smile vanished from the ghoul’s face.
The ghoul let out a furious howl and lunged at Xie Xuanyi!
With a “ding” of crisp sound!
Xie Xuanyi punched down, directly hitting the ghoul’s cheek, embedding it back into the stone wall.
He intended to pull away and increase the distance, but felt resistance; the ghoul, though its head was stuck in the wall, had its hand clamped tightly on his ankle, still not releasing its grip despite the heavy blow…
He furrowed his brow.
During their previous exchange of blows, Xie Xuanyi had realized that this skinny fellow was exceptionally tough, his bones and muscles were as hard as iron, and he seemed invulnerable no matter how much he was hit!
After igniting his one hundred and eight apertures with golden Primordial Energy.
Xie Xuanyi’s physical strength had greatly increased, making him completely different from when he had confronted Jia Liu.
But he was very clear…
that his body had not yet reached the level where it could clash head-on with a Buddhist Golden Body Realm cultivator.
The so-called Golden Body Realm was actually the Grotto Heaven within the ranks of Qi Refining Masters.
“Stop pretending, Xie Zhen, you are no Body Refiner.”
The ghoul pulled its head out of the stone wall with one hand, smirking, “Your punch doesn’t even compare to the Meat Buddha.
What exactly do you practice?”
From their brief encounter aboard the Luo Slayer, he had learned a bit about this Xie Zhen…
This young man’s moves were incredibly fast, and his punch and kick techniques were mysteriously effective, impossible for him to evade.
But the good news seemed to be that there was no need to dodge!
Xie Zhen’s physique, although quite decent, had not yet reached the level of the Golden Body Realm!
“Do you want to know?”
Xie Xuanyi raised his hand, hovering it in front of the ghoul’s cheek.
This time.
He didn’t press down.
Instead, he maintained a one-inch distance.
“Wait.”
The ghoul’s pupils contracted slightly, precisely because of this deliberately maintained one-inch distance, a sense of unprecedented fear suddenly rose in his heart…
Xie Xuanyi’s eyes turned icy cold.
Every Sword Cultivator of Da Sui Sword Palace needed to cultivate their Divine Soul.
The Lotus Peak he had been accepted into possessed the strongest Divine Soul cultivation scriptures in the whole world.
Now, his Lifebound Flying Sword was not with him.
But the robust Divine Soul Power remained.
“Buzzing!”
At the palm center, countless Primordial Energy converged and swirled instantly!
Xie Xuanyi’s palm struck through the air with force!
The ghoul’s face filled with fright.
He quickly released the grip on the ankle, but was still hit, cast away like a broken kite once again.
However, this time he quickly got back on his feet, looking at Xie Xuanyi as if he had seen a ghost!
“He’s unharmed, could it be because of a treasure by his side?”
Xie Xuanyi narrowed his eyes.
He noticed a piece of ornament hanging on the ghoul’s waist bag that didn’t match his temperament.
If not mistaken, that ornament should be a Divine Soul Magic Treasure rewarded by Chu Lin…
The quality of this item seemed good; it had taken one of his strikes without any apparent damage.
This was getting tricky.
…
…
“So Xie Zhen actually practices Divine Soul cultivation!”
As Xie Xuanyi contemplated.
The ghoul’s back was completely soaked with cold sweat!
He inspected the Divine Soul Treasure given to him by You Hai King with extreme distress.
Just from one strike, the Treasure had already developed fissures inside!
Even though the Treasure had taken the hit for him, his Heart Lake was still damaged…
His physical strength was high, but his Divine Soul was precisely his weak point.
At this moment, the pressure from Xie Zhen.
Had surpassed that of Chu Man!
It was hard to imagine what it would have been like if his Divine Sea had been hit by that strike without the Treasure.
Would his Heart Lake have simply exploded?
As the ghoul went silent, the initially tense atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
The air even grew a bit eerie at this moment…
The South Border Evil Cultivators, who were ready to make a move, watched as the ghoul and Xie Zhen stood in a standoff, exchanging glances.
They had intended to take advantage of the ghoul restraining Xie Zhen to launch a fierce attack.
But now, it seemed that the situation had subtly changed.
“Whoosh!”
The next moment, the ghoul turned and ran without giving anyone time to react.
This unexpected change surprised everyone.
“???”
All the South Border Evil Cultivators were stunned.
In the blink of an eye, the ghoul had vanished without a trace.
“He ran away, just like that?”
Xie Xuanyi hadn’t expected the skinny ghost to just run away like that!
He’d only withstood one attack from Xie Xuanyi’s Divine Soul Power!
He was still pondering how to deal with that Divine Soul Treasure…
Now it seemed that the situation wasn’t as tricky as he had anticipated; the artifact was very likely internally damaged, and the skinny ghost’s reaction made it abundantly clear he feared the Divine Soul attack!
Yuan Yi was also full of astonishment.
She had never imagined that the gaunt Evil Cultivator, who had so dominated Chunling that she couldn’t lift her head during the fierce battle before, turned out to be no match for Xie Zhen!
Now that the skinny ghost had fled, what did that make the rest of these Evil Cultivators…
“Everyone.”
Xie Xuanyi sighed, turning around.
The turn of events was truly ironic.
He spoke in a gentle and soft voice, “It seems you have followed the wrong person…
but there is good news.
That guy won’t get away, you’ll see him soon enough.”
As his words ended.
Xie Xuanyi raised his palm and made a light summoning motion.
Not far away, Yuan Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
With a “hum”!
The sword in her scabbard uncontrollably trembled, and with a piercing Sword Sound, Yuan Yi couldn’t compress the hilt in time as her sword shot out of the scabbard towards the direction Xie Xuanyi was beckoning—
A streak of white rainbow penetrated the darkness.
The sword light shot through the crowd, leaving a spray of fresh blood in its wake.
Xie Xuanyi caught the long sword, using two fingers to smooth the trembling blade, and smiled, “It’s getting late, I’ll see you all off!”
What followed.
One man, one sword, plunged into the midst of the Evil Cultivators, Treasure gleaming, Primordial Energy bursting forth, the Burning Light Talisman suspended in the sky trembling incessantly—
Yuan Yi’s eyes widened in disbelief at the scene before her.
A wolf among sheep.
This battle had no suspense; it was a completely one-sided massacre.
Yuan Yi couldn’t believe that these South Border Evil Cultivators had previously been able to slaughter freely in their battles against Baihua Valley—
Compared to Xie Zhen.
They were simply lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
In twenty breaths, perhaps even less, Yuan Yi’s mind went blank, only seeing the figures surrounding Xie Zhen being knocked away one by one, some exploding into a mist of blood, others splitting into sixteen or seventeen pieces, scattered in all directions…
until at last, the youth in the black cloak with a round hat walked up to her, holding his sword in reverse, and slowly sheathed her unsullied sword “Reed” back into its scabbard.
“Nice sword.”
Xie Xuanyi praised softly.
Since leaving Yuzhu Town until now, he hadn’t used what could strictly be called a sword-class Magic Treasure.
It was either an oil paper umbrella or a common sword made by a mundane blacksmith.
This was the first sword.
“Thank…
Thank you…”
Yuan Yi, still shaken, remained in a state of panic.
She didn’t even dare to lift her head to look at Xie Zhen; she caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye, the ground filled with the corpses of the South Border Evil Cultivators.
She knew that this young envoy from the Tan Garb Guards was very strong.
But she hadn’t expected him to be this formidable.
“The Imperial City has the ‘Ruyi Order,’ Baihua Valley should have similar artifacts, right?”
Xie Xuanyi spoke up.
Yuan Yi recovered her senses and spoke in a low voice, “We do.
But I have tried, and communication has failed several times.
Divine Soul Treasures…
can’t be used.”
Xie Xuanyi looked around.
Could it be that the formations within Bai Ze Secret Realm also isolated the internal space?
“Can’t communicate, but can you sense the positions of your fellow disciples?”
This question made Yuan Yi pause.
Inspired by Xie Zhen’s words, she hastily took out a small token resembling a willow leaf, infused it with Divine Soul Power and the tip of the willow leaf lit up with a faint glow, it slowly rotated in one direction.
“Every disciple of Baihua Valley has their own ‘Liu Ye.’ As long as the owner infuses it with Divine Soul Power, they can sense each other’s rough location—”
Yuan Yi exclaimed with joy, “Mr.
Xie, you’re a genius!”
There were many uses for the Liu Ye.
On ordinary days, everyone used it to pass on messages.
Very few used it to sense direction…
but now, it was different.
Inside Bai Ze Secret Realm, since communication with Divine Soul Power was not possible, sensing direction could help them find reinforcements!
“Very well.”
Xie Xuanyi nodded.
The reason he asked that was obviously deliberate.
The Chu Family had recruited a bunch of Evil Cultivators to massacre Baihua Valley in Bai Ze Secret Realm; this was clearly a well-prepared plan.
Quite clearly.
The Chu Family had made “all preparations” in advance!
Even the possibility of the Secret Realm having transport formations was within their considerations!
And the skinny ghost’s decision to run away just now…
in Xie Xuanyi’s view, meant that this fellow must know the whereabouts of his comrades.
Therefore, it was not difficult to infer that the Cultivators from the Chu Family also possessed objects similar to the “Liu Ye.”
“Well then, lead the way.”
Xie Xuanyi turned, pressing down his round hat, and moved forward.
The Bai Ze Secret Realm was riddled with numerous formations and intricate pathways.
Instead of searching for the skinny ghost like a headless fly, it was better to use the Liu Ye to directly find the “survivors” of Baihua Valley.
“Lead the way…”
Yuan Yi hesitated for a moment, instinctively wanting to dodge away.
But looking down, she saw her senior sister’s severed head…
At that moment, fear gradually receded.
The anger from being hunted and deceived surged to the forefront.
The young girl took a deep breath, clenched her teeth, hugged the “Reed” tightly, and quickly followed after Xie Xuanyi.
