Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 724 - 13: Magic Cloak Fist_2
Yan Yu hid in a safe corner, coldly observing the carnage and thought to himself, "No wonder Tang Xiaolian would be immersed in killing; in such an intense battlefield, who wouldn’t turn bloodthirsty to survive?"
Although these four cultivators were only at the Hua Mansion Stage in terms of cultivation, their sword light, spells, and magic treasures... all were as powerful as those of a Golden Core Rank!
Faced with the attack from the four distant enemies, Chen Lingyun and Tang Xiaolian responded swiftly: dodge first.
Dodging out of the reach of Disaster Wind and using the buildings as cover from the bombardment of the deep blue ice beads, Chen Lingyun had already thrown the Divine Evil Prayer Beads and trapped an incoming sword light perfectly.
As the sword light struggled furiously to escape the constraint of the magic treasure, it soon discovered that countless ghosts had appeared—Black and White Impermanence respectively wielded the Soul Arresting Chain and Soul-hooking Nether Light, swooping directly over the sword light, which immediately went still.
Then the Demon Blade Ghost, Yaksha Demon, and other brutish ghosts swarmed in, violently scattering its sword light and dragging out the controlled cultivator, chopping him into mincemeat.
If Chen Lingyun’s role as a Ghost Summoner was to control and kill meticulously and without flaw, then Tang Xiaolian’s style as a insect handler was different—she directly threw the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu, which collided head-on with an incoming sword light and instantly halted its momentum!
The Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu was impervious to blade and spear, even the Flying Sword could not cut it!
The sword light was forcefully stopped, and the cultivator inside was tossed about trying to regain his composure, but before he could do so, the Peach Blossom Tender Sword had already slashed towards him.
Tang Xiaolian’s swordsmanship was nothing spectacular, and her strike did not disperse the sword light of Sword Flight, but all she needed was to pin it down momentarily, for the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu quickly seized the chance, flapping its wings and rising up again, transforming into a beam of golden light and pouncing!
This vicious insect’s lethal power was far greater than that of the Flying Sword, and with just a few crunching bites, it forcibly crunched the Flying Sword, revealing the cultivator’s body inside.
Great, it seems there’s no need for me to make a move, Yan Yu thought to himself.
The varieties of techniques from the opponents were indeed powerful, but were Chen Lingyun’s myriad Yin Ghosts and Tang Xiaolian’s Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu not also existences that exceeded their level?
The two ladies effortlessly dealt with two Sword Immortals up-close, then, using the terrain as cover, cleverly circled around to approach the Magic Cultivators and Assistant Officers from behind.
Chen Lingyun sneak attacked to control the enemy, while Tang Xiaolian threw out the Golden Silkworm Gu to forcefully kill!
Even with Yan Yu’s stringent standards, he couldn’t find fault with their tactics. However, the Killing Life Gate was testing not combat strength, but whether one could maintain a clear Mental State amidst intense battle... so the real challenge would come later.
Yan Yu contemplated this, then suddenly pinched out a Sword technique with his hands.
The Liangyi Sword shot out behind him, slaying a cultivator who was trying to sneak attack him.
...Even hiding they can find me, using Map Exploration cheats, huh?
Since hiding was of no use, Yan Yu flew out of the bridge passage, swiftly joined the two ladies, and ahead they were met with seven or eight formidable sword lights shooting toward them.
Fierce battle! frёewebnoѵēl.com
--------------------
When it comes to prolonged combat, there probably isn’t a cultivator in the world who could stand against a Mortal Warrior.
Since the external True Yuan is limited and prone to rejection reactions, the first lesson every Mortal Warrior must learn is to maintain the stamina of their True Yuan and utilize every bit of it to the maximum.
On top of that, how to distribute one’s attention, suppress unnecessary thoughts, and take the opportunity to quickly rest, are all essential courses for a Mortal Warrior.
After battling fiercely for nearly half an hour, Tang Xiaolian was already gasping for breath, and Chen Lingyun looked about to collapse, yet Yan Yu still buzzed with life, even finding time to command and transmit the Liangyi Sword, backing up the two ladies.
Seeing this wave of enemies driven back, with several tens of sword lights bearing down from afar, Tang Xiaolian couldn’t hold it in any longer. Her eyes reddened, ready to incite the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu to kill, when suddenly she was punched in the stomach.
"Magic Cloak Fist!" Yan Yu shouted as he drew back his fist, then turned his back, saying indifferently, "You don’t need to thank me, it’s what I should do."
Tang Xiaolian staggered to her knees, unable to stop vomiting acid, but her eyes finally cleared—let alone her, even a rabid dog in full fury would tuck its tail from such a powerful punch.
"Wow." After gasping for a long while, she finally had the energy to speak, "Yan Yu, you’re so ruthless, hitting me that hard!"
"Hitting is intimacy, scolding is love; no beating, no scolding, means disaster," Yan Yu said with authority. "You should be grateful."
"Heh, so I should also thank you for giving me such a big kiss?" Tang Xiaolian replied with resignation.
"You two, can’t you wait to flirt after this?" Chen Lingyun’s voice transmitted over, "Let’s finish off this wave first then chat."
"After this wave there’s the next, endless." Yan Yu said, "How about you hold the line for a while, give us two a breather?"
"Why don’t you hold the line and let us two rest?" Chen Lingyun, while commanding ghosts to form their ranks, replied via voice transmission.
"Because you’re heartless and ruthless, you can kill more without fear of losing your mind," Yan Yu said.
"I can’t hold on any longer," Chen Lingyun began to retreat.
"Xiaolian, go," Yan Yu commanded.
"Eh, it’s my turn again?" Tang Xiaolian exclaimed in horror, "But my stomach still hurts! Your punch just now was so severe!"
"No matter, you just need to provide the True Yuan to the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu," Yan Yu said matter-of-factly.
"My own strength isn’t that bad!" Tang Xiaolian grumbled, but still released the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu.
The latter transformed into a golden light, rampaging through the center of the enemies. It bit through sword light, disrupted spells, and withstood several hits from magic treasures unscathed, wreaking havoc on the battlefield.
