Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 704 - 706 Full of Holes
Chapter 704: Chapter 706 Full of Holes Chapter 704: Chapter 706 Full of Holes Walking on water as if treading on flat ground.
What terrifying realm must one reach to accomplish this.
Both of them are Path-Entering Martial Artists!
This was not only Ling Jue’s notion, but Ji Wuming and Mo Hai shared the same thought.
They dared not even imagine it now.
If Xia Liu won against Gu Yun, what awaited them would be the fury of a Path-Entering Expert!
Ji Wuming and Mo Hai felt like crying.
...
If they had known this earlier, they would have clung to Xia Liu’s coattails.
Just like Ling Shiyu and Han Mei, Xia Liu certainly wouldn’t stand by and watch them get hurt.
As for the notion of using the two women as bargaining chips, Ji Wuming and Mo Hai didn’t dare entertain it for a second.
If they dared to do so, they would certainly die in the shortest time possible.
They were all focusing their attention on the azure water surface.
This was a battle of strategy by Path-Entering Peak Martial Artists, something they had never even witnessed before.
Having the chance to witness a duel between two peak fighters today, they had to watch attentively.
Even if they were to die, they needed to see this once-in-a-lifetime scene.
They saw Gu Yun halt his steps three miles ahead.
Bizarrely, he kept swinging his sword at the air in front of him.
The waves surged, and his sword qi sent ripples through them.
Though his aura was present, no one understood what Gu Yun was doing.
At that moment, Gu Yun was frantic because he had found another invisible barrier blocking the way, preventing his escape!
Yet, the sword qi released by wielding the Flowing Fire Sword could ignore the barrier and break through into the outside world.
If he couldn’t escape before Xia Liu caught up to him, he faced a life-and-death battle.
“You might have slept for too long and forgotten where you are,” Xia Liu said.
Slowing his pace, Xia Liu steadied his energy increase as he approached Gu Yun.
As he got closer, his Divine Sense touched upon a strange force.
This force completely isolated the entire space.
Although he could see the sun and the vast ocean beyond from where he stood, he was still inside the Lingyun Secret Realm.
This barrier was there to isolate the Secret Realm from the outside world. How could an ordinary cultivator possibly break it?
Even a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator might not be able to break it.
Otherwise, with so many powerful cultivators in the Cultivator Era, possessing vast Divine Senses, no one would have entered the Secret Realm in hundreds of years.
This clearly demonstrated the power of the barrier.
“Curse it!” Gu Yun roared to the heavens in rage.
He knew he had to confront Xia Liu.
If only he hadn’t just possessed Liu Wei’s body and been unable to harness more cultivation, why would he be running!
If he could recover just a twentieth of his peak strength, Xia Liu would undoubtedly die.
How he hated this!
“Daoist fellow, we have no grievances or hatred, is there really a need to fall out?” Gu Yun said coldly as he watched Xia Liu approaching calmly.
“Hah, have you forgotten what you yourself have said? Moreover, thinking of laying a hand on my flesh, do you think I would let an unimaginable adversary leave this place?”
Xia Liu chuckled.
He and Gu Yun had already become enemies; to let him go would be to nurture a tiger.
And not just any tiger, but an ancient fierce one.
Battling against Gu Yun had already become somewhat troublesome, and should he adapt to Liu Wei’s body, the prospect was simply unimaginable.
“Daoist Fellow, do not misunderstand me, I was unaware of your identity earlier, and had I known you to be a cultivator, I would surely have sought to make your acquaintance.”
Gu Yun explained with a benevolent smile, “Those were merely a group of lowly martial cultivators. In the Cultivator Era Year, martial cultivators were no more than slaves to cultivators.”
“So that’s where your arrogance stems from,” Xia Liu nodded.
This could indeed explain the bastard’s attitude – he was a Soul Origin left over from the Cultivator Era.
“Hehe, out of a thousand people, only one is a cultivator. We, who hold the esteemed title, should indeed take pride in this.”
Seeing Xia Liu’s peaceful demeanor, Gu Yun believed that Xia might have dropped the intent to kill him.
As long as he could change Xia Liu’s mind, he believed that in at most three years’ time, he could certainly return to his peak.
By then, not just Xia Liu, even a thousand Xia Lius coming together would be instantly defeated.
“Hmm, that’s one way of looking at it. Do you know how long you have been asleep? And by what means did you send your Soul Origin into slumber?”
“Back then, I was ambushed by a scoundrel. In my dying moments, I used a secret technique to seal my Soul Origin within a spiritual artifact, within this Flowing Fire Sword. After my Soul Origin went into slumber, I have been waiting…hoping to fall into the hands of a Qi Cultivation Stage cultivator. But who knew, when the opportunity arose, the body I snatched was utterly worthless, not even one-tenth of…cough, cough.”
Caught up in the excitement of his story, Gu Yun realized he was about to reveal secrets and hurriedly stopped himself.
“Oh? So you say you can’t even exhibit one-tenth of your strength. It seems that before you were sealed, you were a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage,” Xia Liu spoke calmly.
“Hehe, let us not dwell on the past. Now, when I think about it, I was indeed crazy back then. Having my Soul Origin sealed within the Flowing Fire Sword for so many years, now, I just want to see the outside world and enjoy a good life,” Gu Yun said with a light smile, realizing that his secret had still been discerned.
Now, he could only smooth things over this way. If he showed any ambition, Xia Liu would definitely slay him on the spot.
“If you truly think that way, I would certainly support it. Unfortunately, your flaws are too numerous, and you look down upon contemporary martial artists with such high regard. And to me, you talk of enjoying a good life, tsk tsk.”
Xia Liu laughed. Ever since he had started fighting Gu Yun,
he had never intended to let this guy off the hook. Between him and Gu Yun, only one could leave the Secret Realm!
“Daoist Fellow, please do not misunderstand me, I was merely caught up in the moment just now; after all, I’ve been trapped inside a spiritual artifact for too long.”
Gu Yun explained hurriedly.
“Hehe, your expression makes me want to throw up. However, that Flowing Fire Sword in your hand is quite nice.”
“Hmph! You say I’m full of flaws, but aren’t you just coveting my Flowing Fire Sword?” Gu Yun could see now that no matter what, even if he were to kneel before Xia Liu, it’s likely he wouldn’t be spared.

“You don’t deserve to have it.”
“Hmph! Bastard kid, if I could exert just one-fifth of my strength, you’d be nothing more than a grasshopper in my eyes!”
Gu Yun was seething with anger. Although he had a fallback plan, once he used it, fully merging and adapting to this body would require at least another ten years.
Now, Xia Liu was giving him no chance, and those ten years appeared to be set in stone.
Watching Xia Liu’s serene and composed demeanor, Gu Yun bellowed, “Since it has come to this, then let you taste my Spirit Art! Ha!”
Gu Yun’s hand seals condensed, and vast Spiritual Energy surged from within his body.
In an instant, the Flowing Fire Sword’s crimson radiance burst forth, its aura rising at an alarming rate.
At the same time, Xia Liu’s expression turned grim: “Good, let me also show you the Origin Spirit Technique I’ve derived from an Exotic Technique!”
With a summoning gesture, a series of quick spirit formulas coalesced, and Xia Liu fiercely slapped the water surface: “Water Spirit Dragon!”
