Chapter 770 - 770 The Sword Is Tainted
770 The Sword Is Tainted
Pfft!
Suddenly, a protective layer appeared on Song Yuqing’s body and covered her entire body. A black snake sword appeared out of thin air behind her and stabbed toward her back. If it wasn’t for her protective layer, her heart would have been pierced.
A cold-eyed killer in pitch-black leather armor appeared.
The killer’s eyes were cold, and his pupils were triangular. He looked very creepy, like a cold-blooded animal. He hid and approached, only revealing himself when he attacked. His assassination methods were extremely shocking.
Moreover, the protective layer was also being pierced through at a speed visible to the naked eye. The sword was still stabbing toward her back at an astonishing speed.
“Jade Spiritual Raiment!”
Song Yuqing shouted softly, and a layer of white jade treasure light appeared on her body. A layer of white jade-like raiment naturally appeared on her body, covering her whole body. When the snake sword landed on the raiment, a layer of water-like jade light suddenly burst out, giving off a clear sound. The snake sword was also forcibly broken.
The assassin was obviously an expert.
After feeling the snake sword break apart, he twisted his wrist and slashed toward Song Yuqing’s neck. Her body was covered in armor, but her neck was not. There was only one purpose in this attack, and that was to kill with one strike.
Shua!
Without waiting for the snake sword to land on her neck, Song Yuqing opened her mouth and spat out a ray of jade light. It streaked across the air and appeared in front of the assassin at a lightning speed. The jade light turned and in an instant, a head flew high up in the air, followed by a blood-red light.
Hurry up!
It was so fast that no one could follow its trajectory with the naked eye.
When it stopped in front of Song Yuqing, she realized that it was a flying sword, a white jade flying sword. It was only three inches in size. After it revealed itself, it seemed to have spirituallity and naturally circled his body, flying up and down, constantly shuttling back and forth. Sword lights crossed each other, and cold air rose in the surroundings.
“A flying sword? The sword control technique!”
Jiang Ni’s eyes narrowed as he spoke slowly.
This white light was a flying sword, and its speed was as fast as lightning.
Controlling the sword can kill the enemy from thousands of miles away. This was the legend of the sword control technique. In ancient times, this technique was known as the sword immortal.
The sword control technique was offensive. It was extremely destructive in battle.
“They’re sword immortals, not sword cultivators!”
When Li Xiang saw this, he quickly made a comparison in his heart.
There was naturally more than one way to cultivate the sword. There were two types of sword cultivation. One was the sword immortal, and the other was the sword cultivation.
The sword immortal involved the cultivation of the sword control technique, which was the foundation. First, they must have a sword embryo, which was a flying sword that they could refine into their natal flying sword. Then, they would integrate their talent into it. They could kill the enemy, give birth to ten thousand arts, and behead the enemy with one strike. The sword was as fast as lightning, flexible, and ever-changing. The more proficient one was in sword control techniques, the stronger the power one could unleash.
This path was very dependent on the strength of the flying sword. Once one’s natal flying sword was damaged, one’s cultivation would be scrapped and one would be seriously injured. However, their combat strength was still terrifying.
As for sword cultivators, they came from martial arts. They comprehended sword intent and condensed a sword embryo in their bodies. With their sword will as the sword embryo, they integrated countless heavenly treasures and their talents to forge a natal battle sword. With the sword in hand, one could use all kinds of sword techniques as easily as ABC. The power was infinite, and it could stir the trend of the world. The sword intent would follow the sword to unleash and break all techniques with one sword. The combat strength was even stronger than that of a sword immortal.
When they grew up, each of them would be a top killer.
Song Yuqing cultivated the flying sword technique. The advantage was that it was easy to get started, and the threshold was not high. As long as one had a flying sword in hand, it was not difficult to become a sword immortal. The power of the sword could be told from the reveal just now.
The assassin didn’t even have time to react before his head was cut off. He was completely dead.
“He is a Demonic Snake Guard, the most terrifying army under Jingjue Queen’s command. Each of them is cold and cruel, and they are good at hiding. They are natural killers, and they are ruthless in their attacks. It seems that Jingjue Queen has already noticed the changes in the Ghost Cave. The entrance must be heavily guarded, and it is not wise to rush into the army,” said Jiang Ni quickly.
“Hmph! What’s there to be afraid of? No matter how many soldiers there are, they will all fall in front of me!” Wushuang Ghost raised his eyebrows and said indifferently.
“The Ghost Cave is accessible in all directions, and there are passages everywhere. Without a map or guidance, we’ll only get lost if we walk blindly here, and it will be difficult to find the exit. Staying here is too disadvantageous for us. It’s almost like waiting for death.” Li Xiang understood the current situation very well.
This Ghost Cave was like a maze. If one didn’t know the way out, one couldn’t get out no matter how long one turned.
Although he really wanted to meet the Jingjue Queen, it was not the right time.
“Enter the Void Divine Gate and leave this place immediately!”
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
The moment the Void Divine Gate opened, assassins similar to the man from before appeared in the surroundings. They all held the same pitch-black snake sword in their hands, and they attacked Li Xiang and the others strangely. Each sword attack was aimed at a vital point. Their movements were clean and neat, simple and direct. They immediately sealed off all the surrounding areas and space.
“Kill!”
Song Yuqing bit her lip and activated her sword technique. The white jade flying sword turned into a stream of light and flew towards the assassins.
The sword light rolled toward the enemy’s neck like a waterfall. Once the sword light streaked across, the head would be instantly cut off when the fragile neck touched the sharp edge of the flying sword. The speed of the flying sword itself was fast. In addition, the white jade flying sword had a huge increase in speed of the sword. When the sword was being controlled, the naked eye could not catch its trajectory at all. Before one could react, one would already be beheaded by the flying sword.
Pfft!
A Demonic Snake Guard was beheaded by the flying sword.
However, when the Demonic Snake Guard died, a strange smile appeared on his face. The black and pungent blood spurted out from his neck and sprayed on the flying sword. Immediately, it made a strange sizzling sound and black smoke emerged, as if a fish had been thrown into a pot of boiling oil. Traces of corrosion appeared on the jade sword, and its speed suddenly decreased.
“It’s filthy poisonous blood! He’s using poisonous blood to dirty my flying sword!”
Song Yuqing’s face paled, and her eyes were filled with anger.
Although the flying sword’s offensive power was extremely powerful, the master will be hurt when it was damaged. Her jade sword was still unable to avoid these injuries. The power of poison contained in the poisonous blood had caused quite a bit of damage to her jade sword. The most obvious damage was that her speed had plummeted.
This was mainly due to Song Yuqing’s fault for not being skilled enough. The flying sword would not be splashed with its speed even if the enemy’s head was cut off and blood spurted out.
