Chapter 18: Instant Victory, What's There to Say?
Chapter 18: Instant Victory, What's There to Say?
With a single punch, without using any force, a single opponent was instantly defeated.
The three elders maintained their composure, but in reality, they were even more apprehensive.
They had assumed that Xiao Ling'er, at her age, should have an unstable foundation. However, contrary to their expectations, Xiao Ling'er not only showed no signs of instability but seemed to possess the power to fight beyond her level.
How could they continue fighting? But with things having come to this point, they had no choice but to persist.
They could only grit their teeth and carry on.
"Qian Wu, it's your turn!"
Elder Zhou of Taohua Sect spoke up.
"Ah?!"
Qian Wu's face turned green.
He was from the Qian family, a subordinate force of Taohua Sect, the smallest of the cultivation powers. He had started cultivating from a young age and only joined the main sect upon reaching adulthood to further his training.
But even so, he had only cultivated to the eighth level of the Profound Opening, and had not yet reached the ninth level.
"What are you saying?!"
Elder Wu spoke, and Qian Wu shuddered, "Yes, Elder."
As he stepped forward, he took a deep breath, "Qian Wu of Taohua Sect, please bestow your guidance."
"Haha!"
Under immense pressure, he showed remarkable courage. With a roar, he took the initiative to attack. Even under such pressure, he managed to break through on the spot, opening the ninth Profound Gate!
"What?!"
The disciples of the three sects were all astonished.
Elder Wu also revealed a slight smile, "This Qian Wu has good talent, he's a reliable talent."
Elder Zhou also smiled, "The pressure has indeed unleashed his potential. After returning, he can become the backbone of our Taohua Sect."
Qian Wu himself was even more delighted.
The ninth level of Profound Opening!
He had actually broken through just like that, a great joy!
However, before he could even savor the excitement for a second, he followed in the footsteps of the previous six battles, ending in the same manner.
A simple punch, nothing more.
The three elders' faces twitched.
"How can we deplete her true essence like this?"
The Bajian Gate Elder helplessly said, "We've done all we can, let's leave it to fate. Our sect has an ultimate skill, so we're not without a chance."
"Oh?!"
Upon hearing this, the elders of Taohua Sect and Jinying Sect couldn't help but feel envious.
A Condensing Essence Realm first level against a fifth level, and they still had a chance of winning?
Bajian Gate had found another treasure.
Damn, their luck was just too good!
...
The subsequent six battles also proceeded without any surprises.
They were all new recruits who had only been in the sect for a month. The gap in cultivation was simply too great to make up for.
Lin Fan watched with great joy in his heart.
"As expected, the protagonist template is indeed extraordinary."
"I haven't taken the wrong path!"
"As long as I keep up like this, the future is promising!"
As for not killing them, Xiao Ling'er could easily do it. But as he always said, without the ability to thoroughly eliminate them and uproot them, it was best not to rashly escalate the hatred.
Otherwise...
Even if any one of the three sects wanted to destroy the Lan Yue Sect, they would have to pay a huge price. What if they joined forces?
Defeating and driving them away would be enough.
It wasn't a life-or-death grudge. Even if they wanted revenge, they would usually not act too quickly and would prepare slowly.
What Lin Fan and the Lan Yue Sect needed most at the moment was time.
As long as there was enough time, Xiao Ling'er could grow rapidly, and he could also take off simultaneously. Moreover, if he could recruit a few more disciples who met the enrollment requirements...
Why fear these mere three sects?
...
"Bajian Gate, Wen Jian."
The last disciple of Bajian Gate stepped forward, carrying a long sword, his expression cold.
"Huh?" In Xiao Ling'er's mind, the voice of her 'teacher' resonated, "This person has a familiar aura."
"Please."
Xiao Ling'er remained calm.
First Stage of the Essence Condensation Realm?
Among the 'newbies', she was already quite strong, but she wasn't my opponent.
"I only have one sword. If you can block it, I'll admit defeat."
Wen Jian spoke, gripping the sword hilt, "This sword was originally meant to be nurtured for over a hundred years, but you are strong, and you're worthy of my drawing the sword."
"So that's how it is."
The 'teacher' sighed lightly, "It's the Sword Nurturing Art, no wonder I felt it was familiar."
"Sword Nurturing Art?" Xiao Ling'er was puzzled.
"Indeed, Sword Cultivators keep their swords with them at all times and use special secret methods to nurture a sword with their essence, energy, and spirit, as well as their true energy. The longer they nurture it, the more astonishing the sword becomes when unsheathed."
"Especially the first sword, if a great cultivator nurtures it for thousands of years, this sword might even be capable of slaying immortals!"
"So formidable?"
Xiao Ling'er narrowed her eyes slightly, "Can't I block it?"
"The sensation is extremely faint. He hasn't nurtured the sword for long, his cultivation is not deep, and the sword itself is ordinary. You can naturally block it, but it will expose some of your hidden strengths."
"In that case, I understand."
Xiao Ling'er smiled, "Then let me punch you instead."
She made her move.
With agile movements and unique footsteps, she reached his side in an instant, startling him. He was about to draw his sword, but Xiao Ling'er was quicker, pressing down on the sword hilt, preventing him from drawing it. At the same time, she punched him in the chest.
Bang!
A muffled sound reverberated.
Wen Jian's chest caved in, and his eyeballs bulged outward. His face instantly turned red.
Xiao Ling'er released her hand at this moment.
Even after being punched unconscious, Wen Jian couldn't draw his sword.
The three sect elders: "..."
Elder of Eight Swords Gate: "We agreed that I would receive his sword, but why did you break your promise?!"
"Elder, are you perhaps old and hard of hearing?"
Xiao Ling'er, however, was baffled, "When did we agree to that?"
"He said he only had one sword, so I should receive that sword? What kind of logic is this? If it's a fair fight, I'm still in a rotating battle, one against many. Am I not allowed to take the initiative?"
"If I told you to remove all your defenses, clean your neck, and let me chop off your head, would you do it?"
"If that's the case, then I should apologize."
Elder of Eight Swords Gate: "(へ╬)!!!
"You sharp-tongued wild girl!"
He instantly drew his sword, and a terrifying sword aura filled the air, causing Xiao Ling'er's expression to change drastically.
At this moment, he harbored murderous intent.
Not only did Xiao Ling'er possess exceptional cultivation, but she was also so cautious and adaptable. If she were allowed to continue, she would likely become a significant nuisance.
However, almost simultaneously, Su Xinghai and his four companions unleashed their power, and in just an instant, they suppressed the terrifying sword aura.
"Old man, are you bullying the weak?"
The Elder of Eight Swords Gate's expression shifted between anger and calm, but in the end, he could only coldly harrumph and sheathe his sword, "Let's go!"
He led his people away, looking embarrassed.
The Golden Eagle Sect and Peach Blossom Sect, naturally unable to stay any longer, hurriedly evacuated with their disciples. However, their faces were filled with bitter smiles and helplessness.
They also wanted to take action, and anyone could see that. They knew Xiao Ling'er would become a major threat, but the timing wasn't right. Taking action now would be akin to seeking death...
The elders' faces turned grim.
Many of the new disciples were on the verge of a Dao Heart collapse.
They had come to cause trouble and showcase the might of their sect, but why were they being suppressed at every turn, and in the end, they were effortlessly defeated in a one-on-many battle, forcing them to leave in embarrassment?
They had boasted about the Moon Grasp Sect's impending demise, but now, even a sect on the brink of destruction could defeat them so thoroughly?
What did that make them?
