Chapter 80: Chapter 80: Amputation with One Slash (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)
"We’ve been waiting in ambush for several days just to catch you, kid."
Wang Jian squinted, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and said with a hostile tone,
"Senior Brother Wang, Steward Zhang, although there’s been a small grievance between us, isn’t this going too far?
Or perhaps, have I offended you in some way?"
*Bai Ziyue’s heart tightened. From their words, it was evident they were intent on attacking him.*
*However, if possible, he didn’t want to make a move.*
If it were only Wang Jian, it wouldn’t be a big deal. Both were in the External Forging Realm, and Bai Ziyue’s true strength had long reached the Peak of External Forging, while Wang Jian, rumored to be a Martial Artist with Bone Marrow Essence, still had a ways to go before reaching the peak.
*He was confident that his own strength was enough to crush Wang Jian.*
But the other one, Zhang Bo, was a Steward in the Sunburst Gang. Three years ago, he was already a Peak External Forging Martial Artist, and now he had stepped into the Inner Cultivation Realm, starting to cultivate his five viscera and six bowels.
For a Martial Artist, progression was one step at a time, and for an External Forging Martial Artist to defeat an Inner Cultivation Martial Artist was exceedingly difficult.
Even though Bai Ziyue’s strength was somewhat stronger than that of an average Peak External Forging Martial Artist, he had never fought a true Inner Cultivation level martial artist, and was not confident.
"So it seems Junior Brother Bai, with your esteemed status now, still remembers the little grievance from three years ago. I thought you had long forgotten us small figures.
However, we two are quite timid and don’t dare to bear a grudge against the Sect Leader’s disciple.
But, who told you to stand in someone else’s way?"
Wang Jian spoke with a teasing expression on his face.
He knew that Bai Ziyue’s strength was merely at the Mid-stage External Forging Flesh and Blood Level. Even if his mastery of Martial Arts wasn’t common, his combat effectiveness would, at most, be comparable to a Late-Stage External Forging Martial Artist, one who had achieved External Forging of Tendons and Bones. With his current Bone Marrow Essence and his closeness to the Peak of External Forging, he felt two levels stronger and naturally at ease.
To him, even without Zhang Bo’s help, he was enough.
"Zhao Gangyi?"
Bai Ziyue, sharp in thought, instantly caught the information revealed in Wang Jian’s tone.
Recently, only Zhao Gangyi had conflicts with him.
Thinking back, Zhao Gangyi had always been determined to obtain the title of the outstanding disciple in the triennial contest.
Now that Bai Ziyue had risen, Zhao Gangyi’s chances naturally became slim. For that title, it wasn’t impossible for him to resort to harming Bai Ziyue.
"Seems I was right, but I didn’t expect him to be so incapable."
Perceiving the subtle sounds from afar and noticing the tiny changes in Wang Jian and Zhang Bo’s expressions, Bai Ziyue became increasingly certain and couldn’t help but reveal a cold smile.
"Enough talk, attack!"
Zhang Bo, seeming somewhat impatient, shouted angrily, his body moved like lightning and rushed out.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian didn’t hesitate either, stomping heavily on the ground, causing a rock to crack, and then, like a flash of lightning, he swiftly attacked.
One wielded a knife, the other a sword, yet they almost simultaneously arrived in front of Bai Ziyue and without any hesitation, struck swiftly.
Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit.
Even though they greatly underestimated Bai Ziyue, believing he had no chance of escaping their joint attack,
because of Bai Ziyue’s unique identity, should he escape, it would cause them great trouble.
Thus, they dared not slacken even slightly.
"Clang..."
A transparent spirit light shield suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ziyue, like a steel wall, directly blocking their inevitable strike.
Magic, spirit light shield!
This was one of the two spells Bai Ziyue had obtained from Wu Hao’s cultivation notes.
He had directly elevated it to Great Success using Soul Energy, and its defensive power astonished even himself.
Even he, going all out, needed three strikes to break it.
Now that he brought it forth to block their strike, it was naturally not a problem.
Immediately after, Bai Ziyue’s form flashed, and he vanished from his original spot.
In the next moment, a long blade sliced through the air.
As the long blade descended, its power congealed without dispersing, causing the air to emit a mournful wail.
Slash Blade Technique!
Wang Jian’s face changed color, suddenly sensing something amiss with Bai Ziyue’s aura. In terms of Qi and Blood, Bai Ziyue was much more substantial than him. Quickly, he gathered his energy, tensed his entire body, and confronted the blade directly.
Clang!
As if cutting through decay, Wang Jian’s long blade instantly recoiled, while Bai Ziyue’s blade continued its relentless descent.
Thud!
"Ah... my arm..."
Wang Jian’s face twisted in horror and agony as he let out a piercing scream.
One of his arms had fallen from his shoulder to the ground.
A single slice severed an arm; Bai Ziyue’s strike was truly fierce.
"What? What is that? Magic? And your strength... Peak of External Forging? How could this be?"
Zhang Bo’s face was a mask of shock, tinged with terror.
Magic!
Only Immortal Cultivators could master it.
Could it be Bai Ziyue was also an Immortal Cultivator?
Furthermore, the Martial Arts Realm he now revealed was far beyond what they had judged, not just Mid-stage External Forging Flesh and Blood Level but at the very limit of the External Forging Level, the Peak.
Bai Ziyue was a Peak External Forging Martial Artist?
In fact, he faintly sensed that Bai Ziyue’s true strength far surpassed that of a typical Peak External Forging Martial Artist.
"Nothing is impossible."
Bai Ziyue’s expression remained unchanged, but he inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, he was extremely wary of Zhang Bo, as he was, after all, an Inner Cultivation Martial Artist, a level stronger than him.
But Zhang Bo’s sword strike on the spirit light shield immediately allowed him to determine that Zhang Bo’s true power was, in fact, not strong, even weaker than his own. The only troublesome aspect was the method unique to Inner Cultivation Martial Artists, the penetrating power.
"I didn’t expect you to hide so deeply."
After giving Bai Ziyue a deep look, Zhang Bo’s expression quickly turned calm and he said, "But after all, you’re still just an External Forging Martial Artist. Having not yet stepped into Inner Cultivation, you will never understand why Inner Cultivation Martial Artists are more powerful than External Forging ones."
With a shift in his steps, Zhang Bo’s form darted like a dragon, instantly advancing, the sword light flashing swiftly, like the shine of stars, directly targeting Bai Ziyue’s seven major critical points.
Seven-Star Sword!
"Is that so?"
Bai Ziyue’s face remained calm as he rotated his long knife, quickly emitting a series of light quivering sounds.
Inside, threads of power, whether gentle or fierce, blunt or sharp... eighteen powers in total, all condensed into one and surged into the long knife.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The blade light vibrated, seemingly unable to withstand the torrent of power.
In an instant!
A flash of white light, Bai Ziyue unleashed a slash.
Eighteen Linked Blades!
