390: Chapter 389 [Close call!] 390: Chapter 389 [Close call!] Ye Tianchen was no match for Li Qiushui.
The martial arts of Ancient Martial Sects had been passed down for thousands of years, truly vast and profound, unfathomable.
And according to what Zhang Yide explained to Ye Tianchen, the Ancient Martial Sects on Earth even involved so ancient secrets and the exploration of the path to immortality, because since ancient tis, from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, who didn’t seek eternal life?
After taking two hits from the Bone lting Palm, Ye Tianchen might well be the first person to boldly receive the Bone lting Palm directly.
His cultivation was inferior to Li Qiushui’s, and with Li Qiushui’s practice of the extrely venomous Bone lting Palm, it resulted in Ye Tianchen now being gravely injured, hardly having any strength to fight back.
Faced with Li Qiushui’s relentless advance, Ye Tianchen could only sit cross-legged on the ground with Dongfang ng, struggling desperately.
Seeing Dongfang ng covered in sweat, trying to break through and complete the final stage of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture’s cultivation probably still needed so ti.
Just one more palm strike, just one more from Li Qiushui, and it seed Ye Tianchen and Dongfang ng would undoubtedly die.
“Now I understand why Master chose to store the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture in a cellar full of ten-thousand-year-old ice,” Li Qiushui said, her palms gathering the true power of the Bone lting Palm.
On her palms, skull-like figures seed to appear, the condensed essence of the ghastly and terrifying Yin Qi of the Bone lting Palm.
Hearing what Li Qiushui said, Ye Tianchen also realized, rembering when he carried Dongfang ng into the ice cellar, that chilling to the bone, almost freezing the marrow feeling, was truly terrifying.
And now, they sat in the ice cellar dual cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture for two days and nights without any issues, even without their bodies freezing over.
It was because their inner strengths were clashing together during the dual cultivation.
“Junior sister, don’t bla .
Since you won’t reveal where the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture is, I have no choice but to kill you both first, then search for it slowly myself,” Li Qiushui said coldly, smiling.
“If you kill the both of us, you will never get your hands on the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture for your entire life,” Ye Tianchen shook his head and said.
Li Qiushui, who had already raised her palms above the heads of Ye Tianchen and Dongfang ng, suddenly stopped.
She really was sowhat afraid; the cultivation technique of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture was passed down orally from one Sect Leader to the next, generation after generation.
Now her Master was gone, and junior sister Dongfang ng was the sole inheritor of the Ancient Tomb Sect.
If she killed the junior sister, it was indeed possible that she’d never get the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture again.
“Scared?
If you’re scared, recite the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture, and I will leave you a whole corpse.
How about that?”
Li Qiushui slowly lowered her palms.
Indeed, compared to killing her junior sister Dongfang ng and Ye Tianchen, the cultivation thod of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture was the most important thing in her heart.
As long as she obtained the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture, she could follow its path of cultivation, find any man for dual cultivation to great success, and if necessary, kill that man later.
Being one of the top martial artists among the Ancient Martial Sects, and after cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture, Li Qiushui in the Ancient Martial World might pose a challenge even for the Sect Leaders and Grandmasters of the major sects.
“Move aside imdiately, don’t disturb our cultivation, or else you will never get the Jing Maiden Heart Scripture!” Ye Tianchen said irritably as he glanced at Li Qiushui.
“You…”
Li Qiushui was so angry she was at a loss for words.
Ye Tianchen and Dongfang ng were like als in her plate, and killing them would have been as easy as flipping her hand, yet she didn’t expect that at this critical mont, Ye Tianchen would grasp Li Qiushui’s weakness, making her, who initially had the upper hand and even controlled their life and death, suddenly feel put down, almost to the point of fuming with rage.
At first, Ye Tianchen hadn’t noticed this, but when Li Qiushui was about to strike with her palms, he realized that she didn’t dare kill them, or at least, not so easily, because from the start, Li Qiushui had the upper hand.
This cruel and powerful woman wouldn’t have been bested by Dongfang ng and him even without any encumbrances, aning she could have easily killed them from the get-go.
Yet now, she hesitated for so long.
It seed she had reservations, and to make Li Qiushui, a ruthless killer, have second thoughts, it could only be the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture.
“What ‘you’?
Move aside, or else just kill us.
Either way, we’re in your hands, but as for the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture…” Ye Tianchen said, looking at Li Qiushui with dissatisfaction.
“Ha ha ha ha, do you think I wouldn’t dare kill you for the sake of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture?” Li Qiushui laughed furiously, staring intently at Ye Tianchen.
“If you dare to kill us, just kill us.
It’s only if you don’t want the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture!” Ye Tianchen said casually.
Li Qiushui glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen, thinking to herself that this young man was really no ordinary person.
Not only was he physically strong, daring to withstand the Bone lting Palm, but he was also extrely clever.
It looked like the junior sister had indeed found a decent man.
This made Li Qiushui grow even more jealous.
“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you before I get the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture.
But that doesn’t an I can’t make you recite the spell…”
Whoosh!
No sooner had the words fallen, than a sword appeared in Li Qiushui’s right hand, pointed directly at Ye Tianchen’s crotch, which scared Ye Tianchen into instinctively tucking his valuables further inward.
For a man to be castrated was surely a fate worse than death; what would be the point of living?
“Hey, what are you trying to do?” Ye Tianchen was still visibly nervous as he asked.
This was after all a matter concerning his manhood and lifelong happiness—no trifling matter.
Anyone would be on edge, even a world-class martial artist would be scratching their heads in panic faced with such a predicant!
“Hmph, what am I doing?
Your thing just now joined with my junior sister; you’ve already tasted the flavor of a beauty.
You can die content now, right?” Li Qiushui laughed lasciviously, her gaze fastened tightly to Ye Tianchen’s crotch as she spoke.
“Hey, don’t ss around, this thing isn’t like any other.
And besides, it hasn’t had the chance to play with you yet.
You’ll regret it!” Ye Tianchen quickly blurted out.
“Don’t worry, there are plenty of n in this world, plenty of great ‘things’ too.
I could easily find one…”
Li Qiushui was utterly shaless and knew no embarrassnt as she leered at Ye Tianchen’s crotch, the corners of her mouth turning up into a wicked smile.
The sword in her right hand was already raised; with a single motion, she could turn Ye Tianchen into a eunuch, and that would truly be tragic.
“Alas, junior sister, don’t bla your senior sister for being cruel.
After I’ve castrated your man, you’ll be deprived of the joys of womanhood.
But don’t worry, like , there are plenty of n in the world for the taking whenever you desire one!” Li Qiushui laughed coquettishly, her deanor unabashedly lewd.
“Shaless…” Dongfang ng could no longer restrain herself, she opened her eyes and disdainfully glanced at Li Qiushui as she spoke.
“Shaless?
That’s quite an accusation; junior sister, you really hurt with that.
After all, the matters between n and won are natural pleasures.
You’re a woman now too, and this lad is not too shabby; he must be pretty strong in that departnt, I guess.
You’ve probably enjoyed the pleasures of womanhood by now.
There’s nothing shaless about it.
As they say, ‘At birth, people are naturally inclined towards goodness’, right?” Li Qiushui’s speech grew more and more indecent, her reasoning more and more absurd.
“If you’re going to kill, just kill; why all this nonsense?
It seems our master really did have foresight expelling you from the sect, knowing that keeping you in the Ancient Tomb Sect would only bring disgrace to our millennia-old reputation!” Dongfang ng said, her expression tinged with sadness.
At first, Dongfang ng thought that Senior Sister Li Qiushui only wanted to obtain the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture, a cultivation thod that rivaled the Shaolin Yijin Jing.
Such a skill was indeed tempting; in the world of cultivation, who wouldn’t want the most potent power?
Their world was one of survival of the fittest, where lack of strength ant constantly facing the risk of slaughter.
Only now did Dongfang ng realize that Senior Sister Li Qiushui had changed, becoming more and more sinister, completely devoid of humanity and warmth.
In her eyes, there was only killing and the worship of strength.
She had even discarded the most basic notions of sha and respect for one’s teachers and path, having fallen too deeply into the demonic path beyond salvation.
“Alright, junior sister, back when I was still in the Ancient Tomb Sect, disciples from other sects often compared you to .
My looks are indeed not as pretty as yours, but today, I really want to ruin this pretty face of yours to see if it can remain as lovely, so beautiful that even I would want to kiss it!” Li Qiushui had completely lost her sanity, venting all her years of jealousy and dissatisfaction.
As she spoke, the sword in her hand moved away from Ye Tianchen’s crotch and pointed towards Dongfang ng’s face.
“What’s the use of a pretty face if one’s heart is ugly?” Dongfang ng said coldly.
Swish!
Without further ado, Li Qiushui swung her sword at Dongfang ng’s face, but just at that mont, another streak of sword light flashed by, aid straight for Li Qiushui’s neck.
Li Qiushui’s face drained with horror, for she could feel the power of the incoming sword qi.
If she didn’t dodge, she would surely be decapitated.
Without hesitating, she leapt back, her body drifting up as she simultaneously held her sword horizontally in front of her chest.
Clang!
Boom!
The fierce sword qi struck the sword in Li Qiushui’s hand, severing it and sending her flying backward, crashing through several massive ice walls… (To be continued.
