Chapter 967

~8 min read 1,566 words

"Jing Yuan's follower kid... didn't Jing Yuan teach you to assess the situation..." Blade raised his left hand, his hand wrapped in bandages like a mummy, and pressed it on his face.

The Mara-Struck is almost uncontrollable.

He had a headache; Jing Yuan's little follower was a bit too arrogant; couldn't he observe in the dark for a while to evaluate the strength of the few of them first?

Blade had some personal grievances to settle with the former Dan Feng, now Dan Heng, but he only had apologies for Jing Yuan.

After the "Imbibitor Lunae Rebellion," the "High-Cloud Quintet" either left or rebelled, leaving only Jing Yuan to take over the heavy burden of the "Luo Fu" General and support it to this day.

Blade didn't want to drag Jing Yuan into the mess of their sinners, and he also hoped that the yellow-haired kid in front of him could think clearly about some problems and not make it too difficult for him.

Speaking of which, Jingliu is Jing Yuan's teacher, Jing Yuan is this kid's teacher, and Jingliu, in a sense, can also be considered his Blade teacher.

From this layer of inheritance relationship, if they really start fighting later, turning their blades against each other, it would be considered a martial uncle teaching his martial nephew.

Some things his teacher couldn't bear to teach, it's only right for his martial uncle to let him experience it firsthand—young man, it's no harm to dampen his spirit.

But Yanqing didn't know these things.

He had just been taught a lesson by Jingliu not long ago, and the young man, who had always been invincible, was now in high spirits, wanting to prove himself again in a new duel.

If he knew that Blade was Jingliu's "disciple," he would probably be even more excited; a swordsman should be like this.

The so-called "brave wins when meeting on a narrow road," there is no reason for a precious sword to be easily retracted once it is unsheathed.

Without thinking or paying attention to Blade's words, Yanqing saw that Dan Heng had no intention of moving at all, and was a bit anxious, urging:

"Hey, you go further away. Swords have no eyes later—"

He blinked, the situation didn't seem as simple as he thought.

"Eh? Your appearance, a bit familiar..."

Could it be another wanted criminal on the run?

The moment Yanqing was distracted, Blade moved, but the target was not the young swordsman, but the former High Elder, now Dan Heng.

"Don't hide!"

Blade exerted force under his feet, and his whole person instantly disappeared from the spot, appearing beside Dan Heng like a flash.

Along with Blade came the Shili sword, which was swung horizontally.

The sharp precious sword broke through the air, making a sword sound, cutting the air, bringing a faint stinging sensation; it looked like it was about to cut Dan Heng in half.

In a flash, a long spear appeared out of thin air, looking strange, like a steel fork, as if two long spears were twisted together in a spiral; it was the strange weapon that Bai Xuan gave him.

Gold and iron intersected, Dan Heng blocked once with the long spear, took the opportunity to pull away, and planned to reorganize his offensive and officially fight.

He stepped onto the Xianzhou this time to end the mess of his past life, settle the uncalculated karma, and welcome a true rebirth, so he used this spear to announce the beginning of his rebirth.

Blade couldn't help but frown when he saw the long spear in Dan Heng's hand; he didn't expect that the weapon Dan Heng used in his dreams was real.

This spear can kill the immortal, which is a good place to be buried.

But he had already reached an agreement with Elio, so it was not good to break his oath; after finishing the matter, if he was still alive, he could choose this way of death to obtain eternal peace.

Besides this long spear, Dan Heng in his dreams would also actively reveal his High Elder appearance, so what about now?!

Blade bullied his way over, his long sword hacking, chopping, stabbing, picking, and slashing; every move and style contained murderous intent, and he exchanged dozens of moves with Dan Heng within a few seconds.

In an instant, sword light crisscrossed on the beach, and spear wind blew, the sound of collision like a dragon's chant.

From time to time, slashes were deflected by clever force and directed to the bluestone on the side, so the bluestone instantly exploded from the middle, gravel splashed, and smoke filled the air.

From time to time, heavy blows fell from the sky, pressing Dan Heng, who was blocking with his spear, toward the earth; the ground collapsed instantly, and there was even more aftermath spreading, and the sword wind split the sea.

The more he fought, the more excited Blade became, his eyes becoming more and more blood-red.

Mara-Struck is indeed a bone-eating maggot, but the divine power of "Abundance" brought almost infinite physical strength, as well as incomparably vigorous vitality; as long as he is not killed, he can keep fighting.

Fighting, cool!

"Show your true appearance!"

"Reveal it!"

Another heavy slash fell!

But this time, what stood before the sword edge was not the strange-looking long spear, but a good sword.

The soul of the craftsman remaining deep in his consciousness made Blade feel the extraordinary nature of Yanqing's weapon at the moment of the weapon collision.

Yanqing finally seized the opportunity and replaced Dan Heng, who was passively beaten and could only defend.

Without asking anything, nor any conversation, the swordsman and the weapon in his hand were of one mind; weapon collision is the simplest and most efficient means of communication, better than words, pointing directly to the soul.

Crazy, chaotic, exhausted... what's wrong with this guy?

Yanqing knocked Blade back with one sword, the sword box behind him instantly shone brightly, and several flying swords turned into streamers, shooting out like missiles.

Being able to exchange moves with such a strong person, Yanqing was naturally satisfied in his heart, but the emotions contained in the other party's sword made him more and more confused.

Can't read it, can't read it at all.

How could such intent appear on a major criminal?

Dan Heng stood not far away, silently watching the two people who were fighting constantly.

Good skills, but unfortunately he is still young and lacks some experience; in another hundred years, or ten or twenty years later, he will definitely be a person who looks down on the heroes in swordsmanship...

Dan Heng felt Blade's gaze wandering over from time to time, and naturally knew that he was not immersed in the fight with this young swordsman.

Blade's target had not changed, it had been him from ancient times to the present... It's just, how far do you want to go this time...

If it weren't for the fact that walking in the appearance of a High Elder would cause big trouble, I naturally wouldn't hide... Forget it, forget it, since you insist on seeing it, then so be it...

Dan Heng put away the long spear given by Bai Xuan and summoned Cloud-Piercer, which had accompanied him all the way, with his backhand.

Speaking of which, it is fate that plays tricks; it was the craftsman Yingxing who forged Cloud-Piercer, but Dan Heng used the spear forged by Yingxing time and time again to pierce and kill Blade.

".. Sigh..."

Dan Heng held the Cloud-Piercer spear in front of him and closed his eyes to meditate.

A phantom dragon chant came from afar, gradually becoming clear, as if falling from the nine heavens.

The seawater of the Scalegorge Waterscape stood still for a moment; the next moment, the flow of the tide changed, circling, surging, and chasing around the island, and the wind and clouds rose between heaven and earth.

Even though the miracle of the "Arbor" is sealed here, everything in the Scalegorge Waterscape seems to be whispering someone's name in unison.

"What?" Yanqing noticed the abnormality around him, his movements couldn't help but stagnate, and in a flash, he realized his big mistake.

He just intended to pull away the distance, lest he be caught by Blade's flaw and dragged into the other party's rhythm, but saw Blade hold the precious sword in his hand behind his back, abandoning this precious opportunity.

Yanqing felt strange, but didn't attack again, just set up a defensive posture, wary of the other party's possible attack.

"Kid, let me introduce you."

Blade seemed not to see Yanqing's defense, spread out his left hand, and walked towards Dan Heng.

"This one is a criminal who committed the 'Ten Evil Sins'... rebelled against the Xianzhou, stirred up a great chaos... and was exiled forever."

"Vidyadhara High Elder—'Imbibitor Lunae'."

As if responding to Blade's words, Dan Heng slowly floated up, standing in mid-air; the dry sandy ground under his feet became moist, water splashed, and in the blink of an eye, a water pool appeared out of thin air.

"Ang——"

The next moment, a water dragon soared into the sky, the dragon chant was loud, resounding through the Scalegorge.

I slept through my nap... just woke up, I'll send the missing word count after I finish typing.
