With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 221 - 216: Making a Name
Pei Min’s eyes slightly narrowed.
The middle-aged man before him seemed as ordinary as ever, just like in the past.
However... back then, Pei Min had seen this man as a cultivator of the Acquired realm, and now, he still appeared as a Golden Core Cultivator.
Pei Min’s Unity Sword Body faintly transmitted a burning sensation, as if provoked, and Pei Min’s eyes slightly narrowed.
Suddenly, he merged his two fingers to form a Sword Finger, and a blue sword light was about to fall on Zixia.
Zixia’s vitality had not dissipated; even her heart was weakly beating. Pei Min had the ability to pull her back from the Ghost Gate.
"Slash—"
A sword light flickered.
Pei Min swiftly moved to block in front of Zixia, flipping his hand, and a Three-foot Cyan Blade fell into his grasp, the sword edge cleaving the air to block the sword light ahead.
Yet in the next moment, a force pierced through Pei Min’s body, reaching Zixia behind him. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
The razor-sharp sword edge surprisingly didn’t cut anything.
Pei Min lowered his longsword, and the blue light no longer fell on Zixia.
"Why do this?"
"She’s just an ordinary mortal woman, why go to such lengths?"
The sword light shattered Zixia’s soul; even if Pei Min saved her physical body now, it would be just a soulless husk.
Pei Min, holding his longsword, saw five differently shaped flying swords emerge from him, hovering with life around him. His eyes shone brightly as he stared fixedly at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man withdrew his longsword, scratched his head, his gaze somewhat confused.
"Why? Perhaps..."
"She deserved to die." The middle-aged man smiled.
Pei Min’s eyes slightly narrowed.
"Deserved to die? Why? She lived her life under my watch, never committing any great evil."
"Some people, from birth, are destined for certain ends... does that have anything to do with acquired behavior?" The middle-aged man indifferently gulped down a big mouthful of wine, wiped his lips, and turned to leave.
Pei Min, holding his longsword, felt the five floating swords around him begin to tremble, as if unable to suppress the eruption of sword intent.
Pei Min loosened his grip on the longsword, looked down, and sighed lightly.
"No matter what, first take my sword."
Pei Min’s head lifted sharply, a purple intent erupted from his eyes, quickly transforming into an ancient bronze sword with one side etched with countless epic tales of flora, fauna, and human history, the other side with depictions of Divine Buddha, demons, and ghosts; overall, it was somewhat slender.
A magnificent phantom flashed behind Pei Min, transforming into a surging river of purple Qi.
The massive pressure turned into a storm, blowing all around, rocks toppled, giant trees swept away.
A sword light flickered, ascending into the sky.
The middle-aged man just casually turned, the somewhat dark iron sword in his hand, as if effortlessly flicked along his arm, collided with Pei Min’s purple Qi sword light and the ancient bronze sword.
That was Pei Min’s Lifebound Sword, the Green Fall.
The Green Fall existed between illusion and reality, capable of slicing souls and severing cliffs.
The Vast Sword Intent integrated countless essences of Sword Dao, no longer confined by Confucianism, yet its core remained Pei Min’s decades-nurtured Vast Righteous Qi, hence still called Vast Justice.
The Green Fall Sword, furthermore, was crafted by Pei Min in the Central Domain using an exceptional Soul-Imprisoning Divine Stone combined with numerous other spiritual materials, refined with Vast Righteous Qi to remove impurities. The Green Fall Sword shed its sinister elements, becoming balanced in Yin Yang and righteous, its quality surpassing other century-old Golden Core nurtured Lifebound Swords.
Yet now, as the Green Fall Sword clashed with the middle-aged man’s longsword, it was forcefully knocked away.
Pei Min’s complexion slightly whitened, but soon recovered.
The strike was not light.
Yet the next second, within the Vast Purple Qi, an exceedingly sharp brilliance flickered, and a Three-foot Cyan Blade emerged from it.
The Peak Sword, this sword was the most top-tier sword embryo sold by the Celestial Sword Pavilion, without any other feature except its harmony with Sword Dao.
Sword edges collided.
Then came five flying swords: Fire Phoenix, Mu Kui, Golden Fiend, Divine Water, Thick Earth. The forces among the five swords interconnected, continuously emanating, binding around the middle-aged man, continually suppressing him alongside Pei Min’s Peak Sword.
The massive storm of Sword Qi dispersed, overturning the surrounding valleys and rivers into chaos.
The power of a Golden Core Cultivator was already sufficient to sever rivers and mountains.
The green-robed middle-aged man’s gaze remained calm.
His iron sword merely touched a few points, exactly at Pei Min’s weakest, where Sword Essence surged, breaking Pei Min’s Five Elements Sword Array in an instant.
"Boring, fighting with you is pointless."
"Friend, I’ll be taking my leave first." The green-robed middle-aged man offered no explanation, succinctly broke Pei Min’s Sword Array, then vanished from sight.
Pei Min’s Sword Essence settled, six flying swords returned to his side, leaving Pei Min feeling somewhat absurd, as if it were child’s play. This man killed under his watch, then casually broke his Sword Array and departed.
"Who exactly... is this person?" Pei Min clutched his chest.
His heart was pounding intensely, a response from the Unity Sword Body, but Pei Min’s Sword Cultivator nature wouldn’t allow him to let the opponent go without a strike.
