Chapter 672: Chapter 679: The Yellow Sparrow Chapter 672: Chapter 679: The Yellow Sparrow A spiritual object that could cause two Nascent Soul sect brothers to fight amongst themselves could only be a rare fourth-order spiritual object, or a precious fifth-order one!
With this in mind, Li Zhirui tried his best to conceal his own aura, lest he be discovered by them before the fight began.
The two were evenly matched in strength, and because they were from the sa sect, they were very familiar with each other’s moves, making it difficult for either side to claim victory.
“Master Bai, I advise you to hand over the spiritual object quickly to avoid losing your life, otherwise it wouldn’t be worth it,” one said.
“Ha! I wonder what other tricks Lu has up his sleeve? Bring them out for to see,” the other retorted.
Once close as brothers, they now faced each other with drawn swords over so kind of precious spiritual object, neither willing to back down.
“Since Master Bai has spoken, then as your junior, of course, I will comply.”
Mana burst forth from Lu’s Dantian, and above his head, a fist-sized dark Treasure Bead appeared; in an instant, a lifelike Profound Dragon took shape, its Dragon Bead gleaming brightly.
As the Profound Dragon glided about, the very sky and earth seed to change color; dark clouds pressed down on the city, and the wind howled, enshrouding both n with an aura of ominous death.
“If this is the extent of your abilities, then I’m afraid this Golden Light Soul-protecting Fruit is beyond your reach.”
As he spoke, a surge of Sword Qi shot into the sky, cleaving through the thick dark clouds and shattering the other’s tactic.
The Golden Light Soul-protecting Fruit!
Li Zhirui, hiding nearby, felt a great surge of excitent.
Despite being only a fourth-order spiritual object, its effect could drive any Nascent Soul cultivator mad!
After consuming this fruit, the Spiritual Soul in one’s Sea of Consciousness would be protected by a beam of golden light, immunizing it from the influence of Heart Demons below the fifth-order for the next three hours!
If one were to consu the Soul-protecting Fruit while undergoing the Divine Transformation Thunder Tribulation, and safely survive the Thunder Tribulation, then the subsequent Heart Demon Tribulation would not cause any harm at all.
If he could obtain this Spirit Fruit, then Li Zhirui would gain even more confidence in facing the Divine Transformation Thunder Tribulation.
With that thought, he beca determined to get the Soul-protecting Fruit at any cost, by any ans necessary!
anwhile, at the battleground, the fight also seed to have reached its final mont.
“With a single sword stroke, all spirits shall perish!”
Master Bai said solemnly, “Lu, be careful!”
There was no flashy or colorful change, just an ordinary stroke of the sword, a slashing move that any beginner would perform during daily practice.
But it was this seemingly mundane stroke where the earth cracked, bamboo shattered, clouds dispersed, and even space itself showed fine cracks.
Li Zhirui, hiding aside, was greatly shocked. He wasn’t sure if he could withstand that sword strike!
Whoo—
Lu tried to block it with the Profound Dragon, only to hear a sorrowful cry as the large dragon’s body dissipated into flecks of Spirit Light, drifting away with the wind, and several cracks appeared on the surface of the dark Treasure Bead.
Spurt!
With his Life-bound Magic Treasure damaged, Lu naturally suffered greatly, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood and his entire person imdiately beca listless and his aura diminished.
“Cough cough, in the end, it is still Master Bai who is more skilled. Your junior here is ashad and asks only for rcy from Master Bai, for the sake of our many years of camaraderie,” Lu begged pitifully under the threat of death.
“There’s no need for such talk, junior brother,” Master Bai shook his head and said, “How could I, your senior brother, go so far as to take your life over a spiritual object, after more than a hundred years of fellowship?”
“Thank you, senior brother! Thank you! In the future, I will follow your lead!” But beneath the lowered head, the eyes hidden from view were filled with resentnt and murderous intent.
Then, using the last of his mana, he sacrificed his Life-bound Magic Treasure.
A flash of black light was gone in an instant, carrying a force of many tons as it smashed towards Master Bai.
Clang!
The sound of flesh and blood being torn apart did not co. Instead, there was a clanging noise, like tal striking stone.
“I had intended to spare your life, but why do you seek death?” Master Bai lanted with a compassionate tone.
However, Li Zhirui, who was on the sidelines, saw it clearly. He never actually planned to spare his junior brother. From start to finish, his right hand, gripping the sword hilt, had never relaxed.
Crack—
With a swift motion, the sword fell, and a body was severed.
A Nascent Soul cultivator thus perished within this Bamboo Sea.
Master Bai stepped forward to scavenge the body and clean up the traces of battle. Suddenly, he sensed a wave of mana and imdiately shouted, “Which fellow Daoist has co here?”
The cultivators lying in ambush were not only Li Zhirui!
And this point, he actually already knew, even seeing the arrival of the other party with his own eyes. Therefore, Li Zhirui had no imdiate intention of making a move.
“Heh heh, a Spiritual Object that can cause fellow sect mbers to turn on each other must indeed be a treasure. With your current condition, you’d better hand over the Spiritual Object quickly, lest you end up like your junior brother!”
A cultivator dressed in a red robe slowly erged, exuding arrogance, as if he had absolute confidence in subduing the surnad Bai cultivator.
“Then, let’s see if you have the strength to back it up!” said Master Bai with an icy expression.
But the previous fierce battle had drained a great deal of his mana, now inevitably diminished, and more and more wounds were appearing on his body.
“Hand over the Spiritual Object quickly!” Seeing this, the red-robed cultivator decisively pressed his advantage, unleashing various Divine Ability Spells, quickly cornering Master Bai.
“Even a cornered beast will fight back, not to ntion an opponent who is a Nascent Soul cultivator?”
Li Zhirui shook his head in secret. The red-robed cultivator was too impatient. If it were him, without a thod to quickly kill his opponent, he would choose to slowly exhaust and entangle them, not pressing so fiercely step by step.
Sure enough!
Master Bai swallowed an Explosive Spirit Treasure Pill and his mana was restored to seventy to eighty percent almost instantly. Once again, he unleashed that terrifying sword attack.
“Damn it!”
The red-robed cultivator had not anticipated such a drastic turn of events and, with a panicked expression, painfully threw out an Earth Escape Talisman, fleeing the scene swiftly.
Huff-huff—
After killing the second Nascent Soul cultivator, Master Bai’s body weakened, nearly collapsing to the ground as he gasped for air.
Clearly, his condition was very poor; even a Golden Core cultivator could potentially kill him now.
“Xiaoqing! Strike with full force and kill him quickly!”
Li Zhirui decisively seized the opportunity. Calling out Xiaoqing, he too didn’t hold back at all. With a single wave of his hand, hundreds of fourth-order vine seeds scattered around. In the next instant, countless vines grew wildly, entangling and pulling at his limbs.
Xiaoqing, anwhile, summoned several sharp Wind Blades, cutting towards his body.
All of this was completed within three breaths! The speed was so fast that the weakened Master Bai couldn’t respond in ti. By the ti he tried to lift his sword, he found himself already paralyzed.
And in the next mont, he fell into endless darkness.
“Let’s go!”
With ti of the essence, Li Zhirui quickly collected the two bodies to search for Spiritual Objects after reaching a safe place.
At the sa ti, he instructed Xiaoqing to destroy the battlefield before leaving quickly.
It wasn’t long before several streams of Spirit Light arrived at the scene. Seeing the battle had ended, they promptly departed.
