Chapter 936: Why Did They Run?

Seeing Xuan Che's unsightly expression, Mu Lingxi smiled lightly, turned her head to look at Qingshui again, and said indifferently, "I was just playing along with your act to tease you earlier; did you really think your pathetic Pupil Technique could affect me?"

Upon hearing this, Qingshui's expression turned dark.

Blood surged in his chest, and his face instantly turned bright red, "Bitch, don't be too arrogant!"

"Do you really think that just because you can block my Pupil Technique, you can defeat us?"

Mu Lingxi raised an eyebrow, "Who are you calling a bitch?"

"Calling you~"

Qingshui had just spoken when he immediately realized what he had said.

His face turned livid, "Bitch, I will not engage in a war of words with a dying person like you."

As soon as the words fell.

His figure flickered, and his entire body transformed into a rushing river, spreading through the air like a Heavenly River.

The surging river water turned into giant waves, carrying the force of ten thousand jun, and crashed down toward Mu Lingxi.

At the same time.

An ethereal voice emanated from within the river water.

"Your Death Concept is very strong, but it can only pose a threat to living organisms."

"And this Heavenly River Secret Technique of mine allows me to manifest as the Heavenly River, casting aside physical form, leaving your Death Force with nothing to act upon; it happens to counter you perfectly."

"I want to see how you will fight the three of us without the sharp weapon that is your Intent Power."

Before the voice had even faded, the giant waves crashed down.

Mu Lingxi's figure flashed, barely dodging it.

However, the gale force carried by the giant waves knocked him back several zhang, making his footing unstable for a moment.

Just in that split second.

The Heavenly River, like a flood dragon, circled around Mu Lingxi and shot up into the sky.

The rolling torrent formed a Water Tornado with Mu Lingxi at its center.

Inside the Water Tornado, droplets of water continuously detached themselves, like arrows, piercing through the void, crisscrossing as they shot toward Mu Lingxi.

Mu Lingxi moved his intent.

Spiritual Power surged out from his body, forming an airtight defense outside his body.

Those endless, continuous water droplets were all blocked.

She observed carefully for a moment.

She discovered that after these water droplets attacked, they would fuse back into the Water Tornado.

This allowed most of the power used during the attack to be recovered, and in this process, the actual consumption was minimal.

And compared to Qingshui, the consumption of the one being attacked was more than ten times greater.

With this Technique.

When Qingshui faced an enemy who was evenly matched, or even stronger than himself.

As long as the opponent was not powerful enough to forcibly break this move, he could rely on this move to slowly wear the enemy to death!

"Not a bad Technique~"

Mu Lingxi's eyes brightened.

She possessed the Three Lives Body, and her Spiritual Power was already far more profound than other Cultivators of the same level.

If she could learn this Technique, the power she could unleash would far exceed Qingshui's, and it could completely become a decent means of killing enemies.

Just at this moment.

Mu Lingxi suddenly sensed that the temperature inside the Water Tornado was dropping rapidly.

Gradually.

The raindrops that made up the Water Tornado turned into individual ice crystals, and the Water Tornado instantly transformed into an ice storm.

An aura filled with coldness and profound mystery permeated the entire interior space of the Water Tornado.

Sensing this change in an instant, Mu Lingxi frowned and looked upward.

Through a gap in the center of the Water Tornado, she could faintly see a figure hovering directly above the Water Tornado.

That profound and icy power came precisely from that figure.

"Ice Concept!"

Qingshui's voice, full of pleasant surprise, came from within the Water Tornado, "I didn't expect Daoist Friend Xuan to have also comprehended Intent Power, this is great!"

"With this, it will be much easier for us to kill this Lu Xiu!"

After Qingshui's words fell, Xuan Che nodded calmly, "Daoist Friend Qingshui, you focus on attacking; I will assist you with my Intent Power."

As soon as the words fell.

The Ice Concept instantly merged into every corner of the ice storm.

Under the reinforcement of the Ice Concept, the aura emitted by the ice storm became increasingly terrifying.

Qingshui moved his mind.

Inside the ice storm.

Individual crystal-clear, water-droplet-shaped ice crystals detached from the ice storm.

Countless ice crystals shot toward Mu Lingxi from all directions like a rain of arrows.

The ice crystals, reinforced by Xuan Che's power, were far more powerful than the water droplet attacks.

Under the attack of the countless ice crystals, the Spiritual Power defense outside Mu Lingxi's body began to fluctuate violently.

Cracks continuously appeared.

Seeing that the Spiritual Power defense outside his body was about to shatter, he frowned.

A finger pointed.

An Ice Needle flashed into existence.

With the appearance of the Ice Needle, the Ice Concept permeating the entire Water Tornado instantly showed a trace of disorder.

At the same time.

Xuan Che, who had been hovering above the frost storm, stared fixedly at that Ice Needle, his expression turning ghastly.

This Ice Needle was precisely the Ice Soul Profound Needle he had used during the Spirit Ranking Battle, which was later snatched away by Wan Guiyuan.

He had not expected that Wan Guiyuan would actually gift this needle to Lu Xiu.

As the previous owner of this Ice Soul Profound Needle, he was very clear about its power.

Lu Xiu's cultivation was already far stronger than that of an ordinary Ninth-Order Will Stage Cultivator.

Her only shortcoming was that the Death Concept was not suited for frontal assaults, and she had not cultivated powerful offensive methods.

This made her frontal assault capability very weak, preventing her from fully unleashing her cultivation advantage.

That was what had given them an opportunity to exploit.

But this Ice Soul Profound Needle was enough to make up for her lack of offensive capability.

With her cultivation surpassing the Ninth-Order Will Stage driving this treasure, it would be very difficult for them to resist!

Thinking of this, a desire to retreat suddenly arose in his heart.

Lu Xiu was not Wan Guiyuan.

Although hateful, it had not reached the point where he had to risk his life to fight her.

There was no need to fight her to the death.

Thinking of this.

Wan Guiyuan turned and fled, his speed astonishingly fast.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the horizon.

With the departure of Xuan Che.

The frost storm lost the support of the Ice Concept and Xuan Che's power, regressing back into a Water Tornado.

Its power plummeted.

The moment the frost storm regressed into a Water Tornado, the rotation speed of the Heavenly River forming the Water Tornado stalled for an instant.

Although one could not see Qingshui's expression.

This scene was enough to reveal Qingshui's bewilderment and confusion regarding Xuan Che's sudden escape.

Run~

Ran away?

Clearly their situation was still in the upper hand, so why did Xuan Che suddenly run?

Just as Qingshui was full of doubt.

The Ice Soul Profound Needle in front of Mu Lingxi suddenly shot out, disappearing into the Water Tornado in the blink of an eye.

Qingshui, who had transformed into the Water Tornado, reacted immediately.

However, he was already in the body of the Heavenly River.

Formless and intangible.

The piercing of the Ice Needle did not make him feel the slightest pain.

"It's useless. My Spirit Body of Water is immune to all physical attacks; your attack is ineffective against me."

He laughed triumphantly.

So what if Lu Xiu's strength was great?

Without Xuan Che's assistance, he indeed could not do anything to Lu Xiu.

But Lu Xiu should not think about doing anything to him either.

Once Cao Tian resolved his crisis and arrived to support, they would still have a chance of winning.

Furthermore.

Even without Cao Tian, he was confident he could exhaust Lu Xiu's power and kill her.

It would just take him a bit more effort.
