Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 408 - 406: Lu Ye’s Celestial Tier Sword Technique—So Terrifying?! One Sword Shatters the Cauldron!
The sight immediately caused Qu Kai’s face to change color, and his expression instantly became solemn.
The spiritual sense from the opposite side... seemed a bit off!
From this brief probing, Qu Kai had already sensed that the man brought by Xiao Qingyin of the Red Cloud Sect...
was actually not only a Martial Arts Grandmaster like Xiao Qingyin, but also a genuine Mortal Realm Grandmaster!
The reason Qu Kai chose to make a move was indeed out of the desire to embarrass Lu Ye in front of so many cultivators.
He wanted others to see that the man Xiao Qingyin took the initiative to bring for the first time was nothing in front of him, Qu Kai.
Qu Kai had noticed Red Cloud Fairy since her previous two participations in the Yunyao Secret Realm. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Although Xiao Qingyin always treated him with the courtesy of a Dao friend, Qu Kai had already set his mind on claiming Xiao Qingyin.
In other words, even if he couldn’t have her, he wouldn’t let others easily succeed either!
Especially not someone like Lu Ye, who could come along with Xiao Qingyin.
But after making a move, an ominous feeling surged in Qu Kai’s heart.
The opposite was not only not a Martial Arts Grandmaster of the same realm as Xiao Qingyin, but rather a rather challenging Grandmaster.
Not to mention cultivation realm, their spiritual sense aspect seemed even stronger than his!
Having realized this, Qu Kai no longer wanted to contend with Lu Ye in terms of spiritual sense, and immediately decided to withdraw his spiritual sense.
Seeing this, how could Lu Ye allow him to attack easily and then retreat effortlessly?
He reversed his hand and increased the output, directly besieging Qu Kai’s spiritual sense pressure.
In an instant, Qu Kai’s face suddenly turned pale, as spiritual power is tied to one’s consciousness.
His own spiritual sense was completely shattered by Lu Ye, causing some damage to Qu Kai’s spiritual power.
At this moment, he staggered and stepped back several steps.
This scene caused the surrounding cultivators, who were ready to watch a good show, to be stunned.
It seemed as if the well-known Mortal Realm Middle Stage Grandmaster Qu Kai... had suffered a loss?!
"Hmph! For the sake of the Celestial Palace, Qu won’t hold it against you!" Despite losing in spiritual sense, Qu Kai’s words remained tough.
"You think you can decide not to hold it against me?" Facing Qu Kai’s words, Lu Ye’s calm voice carried a hint of killing intent.
In the next moment, Qu Kai felt as if...
he was facing a fierce tiger about to awaken!
"Qu has no desire to engage in a confrontation lightly. Considering you were brought by Fairy Qingyin, let this matter be."
Watching Lu Ye suddenly locking onto him with his aura, Qu Kai’s pupils slightly contracted.
After losing in the earlier spiritual sense clash, Qu Kai was already reluctant to engage in any more confrontations with this outsider cultivator.
Better to find a time to understand his background before taking actions.
Thus, at this moment, Qu Kai changed his tone.
Hearing Qu Kai’s words, Xiao Qingyin almost laughed out of anger.
Earlier, when she asked Qu Kai to stop, what did he say?
Even if a Celestial Palace Envoy arrived, they wouldn’t mind a spar, and now he claimed to be giving her face?
Such a shameless person!
Many around them who heard Qu Kai’s words cursed him as shameless in secret.
The incident was clearly initiated by him, and now he claimed he didn’t like fights.
Indeed, in the cultivation realm, there was no shortage of shameless individuals.
Facing Qu Kai’s remarks, Lu Ye’s expression didn’t change in the slightest. He casually picked up a fallen branch, and the sword momentum of the Heaven-Defying Three Swords began to gather.
Qu Kai’s face turned a bit awkward; he had already said so much, yet the other side still wanted a fight. If he conceded again...
How could he maintain his reputation in Xuanzhou afterward?
"Very well, I didn’t expect someone brought by Fairy Qingyin to show such disregard for peers’ face. Since that’s the case... Qu hopes your strength is as tough as your character!"
In an instant, Qu Kai no longer hesitated, and the aura of a Mortal Realm Grandmaster Fourth Layer exploded!
"Step back a bit."
At this moment, Lu Ye slightly turned his head and said to Xiao Qingyin, who wasn’t far away.
Though a bit worried, Xiao Qingyin understood, at this point, it was not the time to question Lu Ye’s competence, but rather to not diminish his momentum.
She nodded and quietly stepped back.
Outside, dozens of cultivators became serious.
Judging from the earlier spiritual sense clash, the young man accompanying Xiao Qingyin was also in the line of Mortal Realm Grandmasters.
Such duels between formidable cultivators were not easily witnessed.
The last notable Mortal Realm Grandmaster battle was outside East Cang City months ago.
In that battle, it was said the Vice Sect Leader of the Celestial Profound Sect returned severely injured.
While the other Mortal Realm Seventh Layer Grandmaster, the Fire Refining Elder, had not appeared since, his whereabouts remain unknown.
"Young man, having spirit is fine, but..."
Just as Qu Kai gathered his momentum and was about to speak, his pupils abruptly contracted!
The seemingly young fellow Grandmaster opposite wasted no words, raising his hand with the branch... which shot forth a fierce Sword Qi!
In that moment, an unsettling feeling spread from Qu Kai’s heart.
Qu Kai, endowed with considerable resources, instinctively pulled out a defensive magical artifact.
It was a circular cauldron-style defensive artifact, radiating a heavy aura upon appearance.
With Qu Kai’s activation, the cauldron immediately grew, enveloping him within.
In the blink of an eye, the brilliant sword light whistled fiercely!
With a slight crackling sound, Qu Kai immediately sensed something amiss.
As he raised his eyes, his pupils dilated in shock.
The massive cauldron he just summoned appeared discreetly cracked!
The sword light from the attack continued to blaze atop the cauldron.
"What kind of strength does this person possess? How can a Celestial Tier Sword Technique be so terrifying?!"
Qu Kai could tell what he faced was a Celestial Tier Sword Technique.
If it were divine techniques causing such a threat, Qu Kai would have accepted it.
Yet a Celestial Tier Sword Technique being this domineering before him, a Mortal Realm Grandmaster Middle Stage?!
Moments later, despite Qu Kai’s efforts to sustain the cauldron, eventually... the sharp Sword Qi tore open a corner, leaving a sword mark on him.
Blood gushed instantly from the wound!
Qu Kai’s entire face was now filled with gravity.
Watching the young man opposite, who appeared calm and as if everything was under expectation, Qu Kai felt a strange sense arising...
That he knew what kind of harm this sword technique would do to him.
And perhaps... if he chose to try and kill him, he could do so by going all out!
