Chapter 164: Revelry

The apricot-yellow female cultivator activated the defensive jade pendant at her waist, narrowly dodging this series of lightning arcs, and quickly retracted her long-range curved blade.

But the sword cultivator who had just been fighting took this opportunity to pull out a Spirit-Replenishing Pill to restore his spiritual power.

At the same time, he didn't forget to form a seal and command his Dharma sword to attack her.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yu cooperated from the other side, once again controlling the bamboo fan to shoot lightning.

She didn't choose to use a sword because she saw that the female cultivator's blade technique was vicious and that the opponent's cultivation had already reached late Foundation Establishment.

Otherwise, the early Foundation Establishment sword cultivator of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect wouldn't have had his magical power drained by her.

Jiang Yu didn't want to follow in Senior Sister Lu's footsteps; the utmost yang and utmost yin lightning was the best Dharma treasure to deal with the opponent.

And Guojue behind her also, when no one was throwing fireballs or sword light at Jiang Yu, swiftly flashed to her left side, together with the early Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, forming a triangular encirclement on the apricot-yellow female cultivator.

Sword light, lightning, and the heavy strike of the bowl struck her defensive shield, yet not a single crack appeared.

"It's a supreme-grade defensive Dharma treasure." The Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator immediately reminded the two, though he actually didn't know Jiang Yu and Guojue.

"No need to fear." Whoever's hand doesn't hold a supreme-grade Dharma treasure? Jiang Yu's cultivation is just inferior, but she can make up for it with spirit stones.

A high-grade spirit stone was delivered into her hand by Jiang Tu, continuously replenishing her spiritual power.

"Hehe, three little brats also want to gang up on old lady?" The apricot-yellow female cultivator formed seals with both hands, and her curved blade flew forth again from before her.

And the instant it flew out of her protective shield, it split into three, each striking toward Jiang Yu, Guojue, and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator.

"Jiang Yu, primary defense! Beware that the clone's Dharma implement may form a formation." Over there, Xia Bing, who was fiercely engaged in battle, saw her opponent and quickly called out a warning.

"Yes, senior sister. Everyone retreat for safety." Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu did not clash head-on with her bamboo fan and curved blade.

Instead, she jumped back several steps, pulling the curved blade's attack range as far as possible to look for an opening.

After all, the attack range of a Foundation Establishment cultivator using Dharma treasures is only a few hundred meters.

The farther you are from the controller, the weaker the attack's effectiveness.

Of course, Jiang Yu couldn't retreat several hundred meters away, or she'd run out of the battle circle.

At this moment, the apricot-yellow female cultivator, who continuously fed magical power into the curved blade, seeing the three retreat from her preset blade formation, immediately switched her Dharma seal with a turn of her hands.

Jiang Yu retreated while seeking an attack opportunity; she saw the three curved blades each split into three, and in a few breaths nine blades of light instantly formed a net, racing at high speed to envelop the three of them.

She didn't bother with how the other two were dealing with it, but immediately slapped her storage bag, aiming the Heaven-Overturning Seal at one of the blade bodies and smashing it down with full force.

She also didn't bother with how the other two were dealt with, but instead immediately slapped her storage bag, aiming the Heaven-Overturning Seal at one of the blades and smashing it down with all her strength.

Under the tremendous gravity, that blade was smashed straight into the ground, and the blade net instantly tore open a gap.

Seeing this, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator and Guojue no longer faced three blades each, but instead imitated the approach, focusing their fierce attacks on a single blade.

Jiang Yu's Heaven-Overturning Seal, being of lower rank than the curved bow, already bore a half-body crack from the first smash, but she couldn't move it aside to let the opponent retrieve the blade.

However, the apricot-yellow female cultivator's magical power was formidable; with one blade missing and two blades bearing the brunt of the strikes, she swiftly changed strategy, and the nine-blade net instantly transformed into an all-sided exquisite blade formation.

Focused on attacking, Guojue inadvertently, while his natal Dharma treasure, the Black Gold Bowl, was smashing the blades in full swing, got caught within the blade formation.

Instantly, countless blades of light slashed toward him; he cried out in pain, both arms drenched in blood.

Only because the Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator and Jiang Yu retreated quickly were they not ground up by the blade formation.

"Fellow Daoist, we must quickly break the blade formation." The sword cultivator shifted position, no longer fighting alone to attack a single point, but leapt to Jiang Yu's side.

Preparing to strike together with her, "I think this blade formation resembles the Eight Sparrows Pecking Wood Formation."

"Can you see where the formation's eye is?"

"Guojue, hold on." Jiang Yu noticed that the blade driven into the ground had actually been temporarily abandoned by the opponent.

Seeing the opponent flip the seal and glance at her with a mocking sneer, she felt a surge of anger and wanted to drive the bamboo fan to launch another lightning arc for a hard attack.

But just as she sent out the bamboo fan, she saw the apricot-yellow female cultivator's smugly raised corner of the mouth.

Jiang Yu's mind stirred; she swiftly retracted the bamboo fan and sent a mental transmission to the sword cultivator: "Fellow Daoist, quickly move behind me and use the best defense to protect yourself."

"You..." The Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator, because his Dharma sword that slashes the blade formation was repeatedly being tangled and unable to be retracted by the formation, having expended effort to control the sword, didn't quite understand Jiang Yu's words.

Jiang Yu had no time to explain; she flashed to two steps behind him, her bamboo fan swooping down before him, forming a huge arc of electricity shield in front of the two, "Run to the right, quick!"

The apricot-yellow female cultivator thought the two were going to run, so she no longer paid attention to Guojue huddled beneath the bowl inside the formation, but instead moved a few steps closer, pushing the blade formation toward Jiang Yu and the sword cultivator, trying to encircle them again.

Unexpectedly, just as she took two steps forward, Jiang Yu on the other side had already added another layer of protection, and with her divine sense she controlled the Heaven-Overturning Seal not far away, softly uttering the word "burst".

With a boom, the Heaven-Overturning Seal self-detonated, and with the lightning balls Jiang Yu tossed while running adding support, it utterly blasted the supreme-grade Dharma blade until it was covered in cracks.

"Pfft." The apricot-yellow female cultivator's natal Dharma treasure was damaged; she immediately spat a mouthful of blood, "Madman!"

She swooshed toward Jiang Yu's side, simultaneously opening the blade formation to try to drag the two into it.

But how could Jiang Yu let her have her way? Seeing Guojue's Black Gold Bowl overturned, she realized the apricot-yellow female cultivator, ashamed and enraged, was willing to sacrifice Guojue to kill her.

Thus, she shoved aside the sword cultivator in front who was still retrieving his sword, summoned the hiltless spirit sword to great size, and flew to pierce the female cultivator whose formation gate was wide open.

"Senior, don't let me underestimate you!" She shouted loudly at the spirit sword.

The apricot-yellow female cultivator thought she was provoking again, and as she rushed forward at increased speed, she still didn't forget to control a blade of light to slash and send flying the spirit sword.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that within the spirit sword resided a half-artifact spirit of the Transformation Spirit realm.

Even Xuantang Xingjun, pressed beneath the mound of earth, is an existence that shares one body with the spirit sword.

After the sword master issued commands, he cursed under his breath, condensing his entire soul power into a fingertip point.

After the Sword Master gave orders, he cursed under his breath, gathering all his soul power at his fingertip and pointed.

It not only dodged the sword-light slashing toward the sword's body, but also angled a thrust, snapping the obstructing curved blade.

"Pfft!" The apricot-yellow female cultivator lost another blade, just spitting out a mouthful of blood, while that hiltless spirit sword had already reached a point one foot before her brow.

She turned pale with fright, hastily changed hands to form seals, and ordered the remaining seven curved blades to return to defense.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu rejoiced, sent a mental transmission to the sword cultivator who was likewise thrusting with his sword to recall his sword, while she herself swiftly reversed her internal spiritual power to surge to her fingertip, then pointed at the spirit sword.

The sudden surge of spiritual power finally allowed the spirit sword to break through the apricot-yellow female cultivator's blade screen; as she slapped an evasion talisman, just as she was about to flee, it abruptly shifted from a point-at-the-brow thrust to a horizontal slash across the sky.

Swish, the apricot-yellow female cultivator's body and head separated; her eyes were filled with disbelief.

Swish, the apricot-yellow female cultivator's body and head were separated, her eyes full of disbelief.

The Ten Thousand Swords Sect sword cultivator blinked, about to compliment Jiang Yu a couple of lines to exchange names, when he saw her dash up to the female cultivator and snatch her storage pouch, taking everything.

Finally, he also gathered the person's body and head together, then flicked a fireball to send them on their way.

The sword cultivator thought, 'His movements are so smooth!'
