"Senior brother, dodge quickly!"
Luo Qingyao’s combat instincts were incredibly sharp. The mont the Incense Fire God’s radiance rushed towards them, she reacted imdiately.
Instead of thinking about evading, she positioned herself in front of Fan Wubing.
Her dantian surged, and immortal energy swiftly coursed through her major and minor ridians, condensing into Protective Gang Qi outside her body to brace for the impact.
Fan Wubing sensed her intense aura and imdiately understood that his junior sister had improved significantly during this period, now reaching the seventh-layer of Foundation Establishnt. While in the Peach Branch Small Profound Realm, she was only at the fourth-layer of Foundation Establishnt. It had been just over half a month.
Could junior sister truly be a genius?
However, the young swordsman just encountered was at the late stage of Foundation Establishnt, and despite being the mightiest Sword Cultivator, he was instantly slain by the Incense Fire God’s radiance...
Under the perception of the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, the intensity of the Incense Fire God’s radiance eclipsed Luo Qingyao’s Protective Gang Qi.
No,
since she hadn’t refined her body, she likely couldn’t withstand it!
Fan Wubing’s judgnt was swift and accurate.
The mont the Incense Fire God’s radiance collided with Luo Qingyao’s Protective Gang Qi, the latter imdiately developed nurous cracks. Immortal energy seeped through the cracks, further reducing the strength of the Protective Gang Qi, and continuous impacts quickly subjected Luo Qingyao to imnse pressure.
The circulation of immortal energy within her body gradually faced suppression and slowed down.
Nevertheless, her acute combat senses realized at once that continuing like this would lead to defeat. She promptly summoned her flying sword to dive into the Incense Fire God’s radiance for a shred.
The dark green shadow weaved and darted in the brilliant golden radiance.
However, the damage was akin to hacking at cotton with a large knife, completely "overco by softness." Luo Qingyao’s flying sword couldn’t find a main target; wherever it slashed, the Incense Fire God’s radiance dispersed and then reassembled elsewhere.
"I can’t cut it!"
Luo Qingyao furrowed her brows tightly. She understood instantly that this Incense Fire God’s radiance was rely the manifestation of an attack, not the attacker’s true form.
They needed to attack the true form!
But... as she looked around, the rippling waters of Zhaoxing Lake were all she saw, and the crowd that was watching earlier had vanished completely.
Fan Wubing also noticed this strange situation... Typically, when cultivators duel, even mortals would watch from afar rather than disappear entirely.
This result was likely orchestrated by the Incense Fire God beneath the lake!
Luo Qingyao quickly ford a judgnt in her mind. Without locating the opponent’s true form, this battle was pointless. If she were alone, she might continue maneuvering, but... today she was on a date with senior brother. She didn’t want any shadows cast over such a joyful day and needed to ensure senior brother’s safety, so,
"Senior brother, we are not its match. We must leave quickly and ask the elders to help when we return to the sect!"
"It’s already too late."
Luo Qingyao was stunned in surprise,
"Why..."
Fan Wubing’s expression was grave,
"Junior sister, take a look around. There’s no one here. This is very unusual... In my senses, an invisible ’force’ shrouds this lakeside. This force has dispersed all other people, leaving just us. It indicates that the enemy specifically targets us."
"Us? But we’re rely passing by, with no grievances or enmity. Why..."
Fan Wubing shook his head,
"I’m afraid not... Junior sister, feel your sect token."
Luo Qingyao sensed it imdiately. A peculiar aura, faint yet present, clung to it,
"What is this?"
"It’s this very aura that has marked us. By using the sect token to identify us, it has driven everyone else away and left us alone."
Luo Qingyao raised an eyebrow,
"It’s targeting disciples of the Eternal Immortal Sect!"
"Indeed."
"But... who is it?"
"The Lake God of Zhaoxing Lake."
"What? There’s a Lake God in Zhaoxing Lake? But why, the Lake God should be protecting the lands, shouldn’t it be on the sa side as our Eternal Immortal Sect?"
Fan Wubing’s eyes were dark as ink, threads of aura swirling,
"Regardless of the reason. Since the opponent intends to kill us, we must respond with all our might."
"But I can’t even touch its true form."
"Junior sister, let find its true form, you cover !"
Luo Qingyao spoke urgently,
"You can’t, senior brother. A Divine Dao Cultivator’s attack, which is the Incense Fire God’s radiance, entails karmic causality, unlike the raw force of a Barbaric Blood Pig, it doesn’t rely harm the flesh. It targets one’s foundation, spirit, and even one’s fate! Without cultivation, senior brother, you won’t withstand it!"
"There’s no ti to concern ourselves with that; the Lake God’s second round of attacks is coming!"
The mist over the lake thickened, and the brilliant golden Incense Fire God’s radiance solidified into various weapons—swords, spears, and halberds—rushing toward them to attack.
Fan Wubing maxed out the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill, and instantly, everything around him transford into glowing lines in his vision.
Among the dense lines, he precisely identified the hottest and most peculiar one and charged forward.
"Senior Brother!"
Luo Qingyao exclaid, not daring to be negligent, and controlled the flying sword with all her might to deal with those weapons ford by the divine radiance of the Incense Fire God.
Fan Wubing’s agility was exceptional, and his sense of qi flow was incredibly keen.
Thus, in his eyes, the attacks of the divine radiance were nothing more than beams of light flying towards him. He could accurately predict the trajectory of the divine radiance’s attacks.
He dodged and maneuvered gracefully.
Although he lacked the divine body technique of cultivators, his extraordinary observational skills and physical prowess allowed him to evade attacks with his bare body.
"Senior Brother..."
From behind, Luo Qingyao watched his figure, stunned.
She had never seen such a fighting style. It was unlike cultivators who use their celestial energy to bombard, nor like martial artists who clash head-on with their robust true qi.
Fan Wubing’s thod of dealing was peculiar, as if he knew exactly where the enemy’s attacks would co from, preparing the defensive stance in advance. Yet, it was elegant, like a leisurely stroll, akin to a strong dancer.
The Lake God, hidden sowhere, seeing that this thod of transforming the divine radiance into weapons couldn’t strike Fan Wubing, imdiately changed the strategy.
The resplendent golden divine soul on the lake suddenly dissipated, transforming into a mist that filled the space and enveloped Fan Wubing from all directions.
You can evade singular attacks, but how about wide-area attacks?
This change of strategy was correct. Fan Wubing simply couldn’t dodge and was continuously attacked by the mist ford by the divine radiance.
[You are attacked by the divine radiance of Incense Fire God, HP -25, current HP 2992]
[...HP -25...]
[...HP -25...]
The blood loss was fast, 25 points per second.
This was much faster than before in the poisonous pool of the Peach Branch Small Profound Realm, where the speed was 5 points per second. Moreover, the mist of divine radiance had a tendency to gradually tighten, which ans that the blood loss speed would gradually increase.
But,
This change of strategy was also not so correct.
Because,
["Tongue Desire" is activated, you absorbed a small amount of divine radiance, HP limit 1.25]
[...HP limit 1.25...]
The health also increased second by second. 5% absorption to blood conversion.
Additionally,
The effect of the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill has been triggered
[HP 3]
Restoration of 0.1% of maximum HP, now with an HP limit of 3017, that’s 3 points per second.
The HP limit was increasing continuously, at an extrely fast pace!
Fan Wubing felt a surge of joy inside.
However, it was not yet the ti to be happy. Even with the combination of the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill and "Tongue Desire", it couldn’t counter the attack of the divine radiance.
The stinging pain all over his body kept him awake.
Now, the biggest advantage is, as soone with a player attribute panel, as long as the HP bar doesn’t hit zero, or instantly drop a large chunk, this continuous blood loss, even when reduced to critical HP, doesn’t give a debuff, allowing him to maintain an excellent combat state.
In the case of others, dealing with this divine radiance would be extrely difficult.
He was different. He could withstand the attack while launching his own attack.
Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill... with utmost concentration, fully activated!
The qi flow in his eyes brightened significantly. The evolved Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill made him more sensitive to the divine radiance’s acquired qi than ever.
Found it, the true body of the Lake God is there!
Locked, firmly locked!
This ti, don’t think of hiding!
Blood Burning Skill!
[You used the "Blood Burning Skill", burning 800 HP, gaining a temporary cultivation boost, current cultivation Second-Layer Foundation Establishnt]
Even sword cultivators at the late stage of Foundation Establishnt were defeated by the attack of divine radiance, naturally, the Second-Layer Foundation Establishnt is not sufficient.
However, Fan Wubing wasn’t using this second-layer Foundation Establishnt cultivation to attack, but to speed up!
He aggressively charged forward, loudly shouting:
"Junior Sister, follow with your flying sword!"
Luo Qingyao didn’t know what Senior Brother intended to do, but she trusted him unconditionally, imdiately guiding the flying sword to follow behind him.
He concentrated all his cultivation power, explosively unleashing it, coupled with the Unwarranted Qi Creation Skill’s precise control over the qi flow, at an extrely fast pace, like a sharp arrow, he plunged into the lake.
With a shade of dark green trailing behind.
