Chapter 153 Meeting of Sword Immortals
Chapter 153 Meeting of Sword Immortals
On a quiet and peaceful mountain road.
Two figures, one white and one black, were running away at high speed. Naturally, they were the monk, Wuxin, and Ming Hou, who had already been chased for hundreds of miles by the Wrath Sword Immortal.
"As a dignified Demonic Cult Sect Leader, how could I be chased out of breath by a single man with a sword? How shameful." Wuxin stopped, and finally began to gasp. "No more, I can’t run anymore, can’t run anymore."
Ming Hou also stopped, stabbed the big door-like blade into the ground in front of him, and looked around warily.
"Don\'t bother looking, Ming Hou." Wuxin patted Ming Hou on the shoulder. "That guy is a monster. Only he can look for us. We can\'t look for him."
"Boy, have you finally started to understand your own predicament?" The man wearing a black cloak and hat, and carrying a huge sword spoke slowly as he walked up from the hillside one step at a time.
"Senior, your swordsmanship is unparalleled. As a junior, even though I’m a genius, I’m still a few years short of training." Wuxin pretended to lament.
"Boy, are you playing some trick again?" Yan Zhantian said seriously, as he pressed down his Army Destroyer sword. Along the way, Yan Zhantian had several opportunities to kill Wuxin and Ming Hou, but Wuxin was cunning and adaptable, and he was able to escape from certain death each time.
Wuxin reached out and a pigeon landed on his hand. Wuxin smiled. "My friend tells me that someone’s coming to rescue me."
"Oh? Who is it." Yan Zhantian raised his head and looked into the distance.
When Wuxin was speaking, he’d also felt it - the presence of a terrifying aura approaching them.
"Maybe it’s also a sword immortal." Wuxin flicked his hand lightly and released the pigeon to fly off again. After that, his expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly pulled Ming Hou to the side and shouted, "Retreat!"
A sword pierced through the lapels of his shirt, and the person that Wuxin said was coming to rescue him, actually stabbed at him with a sword. Wuxin pushed his Divine Step to the extreme and barely managed to avoid this sword. However, the sword didn’t stop. There was a flash of red light. Another sword appeared and this sword headed for Yan Zhantian.
Yan Zhantian, who was also known as the Wrath Sword Immortal, had a sword power that was best described as tyrannical. Naturally, he thought nothing about this sword that appeared out of nowhere. He raised his Army Destroyer sword and easily blocked the oncoming sword. However, he felt the power of the sword was enough to topple mountains and overturn the seas. That one sword forced him to retreat seven steps.
The swordsman stopped, Yan Zhantian slid backwards seven steps and plunged his sword into the ground. The hat on his head split in half and fell to the ground, revealing a face full of sword scars.
"Well, well, you actually look terrifying. No wonder you have to wear a hat every day." Wuxin shook his head. "If we’re to compare, I’d say this lady’s appearance is celestial."
Dressed in white, a cold sword, a red sword, and that head of bewitching purple hair, the female swordsman who fell from the sky was indeed stunningly beautiful.
"Li Hanyi," Yan Zhantian called out the name in shock.
The name of the Snow Moon Sword Immortal would indeed shock most people, but Yan Zhantian would definitely not be included in that group. But, Li Hanyi’s current appearance was something Yan Zhantian had never seen before. Among the five sword immortals, Li Hanyi was known for her light and elegant swordsmanship, but the sword just now was clearly domineering and fierce.
"Qi deviation," Yan Zhantian said in a deep voice, looking at Li Hanyi\'s purple hair.
"Indeed, it’s qi deviation." Wuxin pulled Ming Hou step by step and retreated. "Back then, when Zhao Yuzhen suffered qi deviation, it took Qingcheng Mountain\'s former Sectmaster, Lü Suzhen and Wine Immortal Baili Dongjun joining forces to take him down. Senior Wrath Sword Immortal, If you can defeat this Li Hanyi by yourself, you should become number one under Heaven."
Li Hanyi raised her head, her purple-coloured pupils bewitching and dangerous. She waved her hand gently, and the cold sword Armoured Glacier and the warm sword Peach Blossom floated up flanking her sides. She looked at Yan Zhantian, and said slowly, "Yan Zhantian?"
"Li Hanyi, what are you doing here? How did you become like this?" Yan Zhantian asked.
"Where is Su Changhe?" Li Hanyi\'s eyes rose with viciousness, and the sword aura from her two swords rose together, becoming restless.
Yan Zhantian clenched the Army Destroyer sword in his hand and frowned slightly. "Su Changhe of the Hidden River? Why are you looking for him?"
Li Hanyi\'s purple hair fluttered, and her murderous intent soared. "I want to kill him!"
Her two swords flew out instantly, heading straight towards Yan Zhantian. Yan Zhantian snorted coldly, lifted his sword to block, without drawing the Army Destroyer sword from its sheath. Although Li Hanyi\'s sword power was tyrannical, he still had to find the most suitable time to use his Sword Drawn with Fury.
"What\'s going on these days? Right after meeting one sword immortal, and another one appeared. Is everyone hurrying for a gathering? Except for that fellow, Luo Qingyang, I’ve almost seen the rest." A refined voice sounded suddenly, and Wuxin turned his head to look. He saw a middle-aged scholar dressed in white clothes covered with dust with a bookcase on his back, standing there and looking somewhat wretched.
"Damn scholar?" Yan Zhantian was forced to retreat by Li Hanyi\'s two swords, but he was still surprised by that voice and he turned his head to look over.
"Big demon head!" The scholar smiled and replied.
"Senior Confucian Sword Immortal?" Wuxin finally reacted and asked.
"The Young Master of the Demonic Cult is here too. Recently, the Central Plains martial world has been rather exciting." Xie Xuan, the Confucian Sword Immortal, saw through his identity at a glance.
"Not bad, not bad. Since the three sword immortals are meeting here, this junior shall not trouble you further. Let me bid my farewell, but hope that we meet again in the future." Wuxin said goodbye in a hurry, pulled Ming Hou over, turned and ran.
"Hey, he left just like that?" Xie Xuan was stunned.
Yan Zhantian snorted coldly, and scolded out loud, "How did Ye Dingzhi give birth to such a hopeless son!"
"Senior Wrath Sword Immortal, though, is sure full of hope. If you have the ability, come and get me!" Wuxin shouted with a smile from a distance.
"Damn brat!" Yan Zhantian drew the Army Destroyer sword in his hand angrily.
Sword Drawn with Fury!
In an instant, he’d knocked the Armoured Glacier and Peach Blossom swords into the air. Li Hanyi leaped forward, caught the twin swords and slashed at Yan Zhantian.
Xie Xuan waved his hand and the Book of Knowledge sword hidden in his bookcase flew out and blocked Li Hanyi right in front of her.
"Yan Zhantian, although it’s a disgrace for me to join forces with you, Li Hanyi has already demonised. If we take her on individually, neither of us are a match for her. Our only option now is to work together and suppress her deviation. Just like how Lü Suzhen and Baili Dongjun did it back then," Xie Xuan said.
"How did they do it?" Yan Zhantian was forced to retreat steadily. Although he didn\'t want to admit it, he really wasn’t a match for Li Hanyi with only his own power.
"I\'ve been looking for books as I was chasing her down, and I finally found it just now." Xie Xuan waved his Book of Knowledge, helping Yan Zhantian to block Li Hanyi\'s sword power, while taking out an ancient and tattered book at the same time. "In the book, it says that during a qi deviation, the meridians flow backwards and the blood and qi surges drastically. Skills and power are multiplied many times higher, but it’s like drinking wine to quench thirst, risking a violent death at any moment. The only way to break it is to take out the consciousness, suppress the qi, then……"
"I get it." Yan Zhantian yelled and interrupted Xie Xuan who was hurriedly flipping through his book. "Simply put."
"Knock her out first!"
