It was a legacy technique passed down by the founding ancestor, Elder Golden, of the Hengyue Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuerong, as an Inner Sect Disciple and a fire attribute cultivator, was quite adept at this technique, capable of deploying the Shield of Li Fire to fend off attacks from late-stage Qi Cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defending against the Cyan Bamboo Sword was naturally not a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clash between the Cyan Bamboo Sword and the Shield of Li Fire caused the shield to tremble violently, seemingly on the verge of bursting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, this was merely an illusion; the Li Fire Shield itself was quite volatile, with flames surging wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The temperature of the Power of Li Fire was extremely scorching, deterring cultivators from approaching, yet causing no discomfort to Chen Yuerong herself, only a feeling of warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Cyan Bamboo Sword blocked, Lu Xuelian’s face changed, inwardly thinking this was troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cyan Bamboo Sword was the highest-tier magical artifact she carried with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she had a Tier Two Spiritual Artifact, such as a flying sword, it could breach Chen Yuerong’s Shield of Li Fire, putting her in a difficult spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ultimately, Lu Xuelian was disadvantaged by inferior magical artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having spent long periods within the Cyan Mountain Sect, tending to Cyan-tailed Spirit Fish and the like, she seldom focused on improving her magical equipment. Her daily cultivation was not as diligent as that of Lu Yuanshan and others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Lu Ping witnessing Lu Xuelian’s inadequate artifacts during the sect’s grand competition and seeing that she only possessed a Tier One Middle Grade Brocade Compass, he instructed Zhiwei afterward to refine a Cyan Bamboo Sword for her as a gift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, in her current situation, Lu Xuelian might have no combat capability against Chen Yuerong and would surely have turned to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of fleeing, Lu Xuelian did entertain thoughts of running at this moment, but she needed an opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just completed her attack, the Cyan Bamboo Sword was blocked and deflected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yuerong was quick on the uptake as well, urging the Li Fire Sword to change direction, launching Li Fire Sword Qi, slashing towards Lu Xuelian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Chen Yuerong’s Li Fire Sword, Lu Xuelian wasn’t at a loss; she calmly controlled the Cyan Bamboo Sword to block, intending to hold off the assault for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their assaults were fierce.
