Chapter 301: Confrontation
Chapter 301: Confrontation
"You lowly slave!"
A crimson jade ring appeared in the hands of the Miao Clan Great Condensation Master, and he shouted, "You dare to steal our Southern Flame Gate's most precious treasure... Die!"
His body surged with cultivation power, and the power of a Late Core Formation cultivator frantically infused the crimson jade ring.
Roar!
A yellow-eyed white tiger leaped out from within the crimson jade ring, and as it opened its mouth, balls of true fire appeared, sealing off the surrounding void.
A golden light shield emerged in front of Fang Xing, blocking the thundering flame, and he looked at the other Southern Flame Gate cultivators surrounding him with a speechless expression.
It was clear that these cultivators were also under heavy suspicion.
"Boring... Tedious... Speechless..."
Fang Xing sighed.
Earlier, he had seen that everyone was disguised, so he didn't care about the hidden Late Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Now it seemed that he had been tricked by them.
The key was...
The teleportation array was right there, but he couldn't activate it.
Forcibly breaking through and activating the teleportation array also became an impossible option.
Just then, he felt a cold divine sense sweep over him!
"Primordial Spirit divine sense?!"
Fang Xing's heart stirred, knowing that his disguise might not be able to hide him from a cultivator of the same level.
After all, he was just passing by and hadn't used the Nine-Baby Pearl.
Even if he had used it, the Nine-Baby Pearl was only a treasure-grade item and might not be very useful in a confrontation at the Nascent Soul Stage.
'No matter how I explain it now, it seems like I'll be suspected of having ulterior motives...'
'More importantly, why should I stay and prove my innocence?'
Fang Xing could already guess the suspicions of the Primordial Spirit True Monarch.
It was like eating a few bowls of noodles and then being forced to cut open one's belly to prove one's innocence.
But he was the kind of person who would dig out the eyes of the doubter and swallow them, letting the doubter see for themselves!
So...
Boom!
Fang Xing no longer hid, and the surging power of the Nascent Soul Stage burst forth.
"What? It's actually a Nascent Soul Stage old monster?!"
Wondrous Pen exclaimed, and then he was swept away by a golden palm, spitting blood and flying backward, slamming heavily into the wall.
"I finally understand how you managed to get into so much trouble."
Fang Xing chuckled and flicked his finger.
Whoosh! A golden sword light flashed by, and the Late Core Formation cultivator guarding the teleportation array immediately had blood flowing from his mouth and nose, his treasure shattered, and he fainted on the spot.
Roar!
The yellow-eyed white tiger roared in pain, and a sword energy cut it in half.
The Miao Clan Condensation Master was even more shocked, and with blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, he saw the entire Bronze Hall collapse in an instant.
Then...
A sword light shot into the sky.
Fang Xing stood proudly in mid-air, still holding a petite female cultivator.
It was the female Late Core Formation cultivator who had been captured earlier!
'This woman is the key to everything... She's the reason I can't rush my journey.'
'If it weren't for the time constraint, I'd really like to search her soul.'
H
At this moment, the female cultivator captured by Fang Xing struggled to transmit her voice, "This... Senior... Junior has a big secret... Please..."
B
Within the red light was a short and fat old man with three topknots, revealing a large Buddha belly.
At this moment, the old man's eyes, shining with a brilliant light, looked at Fang Xing, "Fellow Daoist, we haven't met before, and I'm not sure where you're from. I am Tian Kun Upper Person from the Southern Flame Gate... What's your relationship with this woman?"
A hint of confusion flashed in Tian Kun Upper Person's eyes.
Although there were many Nascent Soul Stage cultivators in the Vast Sea Cultivation World, each one of them had a well-known name.
Moreover, Tian Kun Upper Person knew all the Primordial Spirit True Monarchs active in the vicinity, and there was no unfamiliar cultivator like Fang Xing.
'Could it be... that he's also here for that treasure?'
Tian Kun Upper Person made a decision in his heart as he thought of this.
"We have no relationship at all. I was about to venture into the Inner Sea, but I was dragged down by this woman."
Fang Xing threw the female Late Core Formation cultivator towards Tian Kun Upper Person and prepared to leave.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait..."
A smile appeared on Tian Kun Upper Person's face, "Since you're willing to use our sect's teleportation array, it's our honor. Why don't you wait a moment... I'll personally take charge, and after repairing the teleportation array, I'll send you away immediately. How does that sound?"
"There's no need. This trip has been inauspicious, and I've already prepared to return home." Fang Xing sighed.
But Tian Kun Upper Person's heart was in a hurry.
Indeed, there was a big secret within their Southern Flame Gate, involving a huge benefit.
This time, they had fallen for the 'lure the tiger away from the mountain' strategy, and their sect's strongest cultivator, Fire Cloud True Monarch, had been lured away.
Only Tian Kun Upper Person and another cultivator were left to guard the sect.
As a result, they were taken advantage of by the female Late Core Formation cultivator!
At this moment, Tian Kun Upper Person also began to suspect Fang Xing.
However, it was not appropriate to confront a cultivator of the same level.
But suddenly, a divine sense transmission reached his ear, calming his heart.
A smile appeared on Fang Xing's face, "Don't mention it. I helped you capture this woman... Can I leave now?"
"Of course, please!"
Tian Kun Upper Person saw him off with cupped hands.
Fang Xing nodded in satisfaction and was about to turn around.
Suddenly!
Thirteen emerald needles appeared out of thin air, as if they had suddenly materialized from the void, and rushed forward with piercing speed!
An unexpected turn of events!
If it were an ordinary Primordial Spirit True Monarch, they would have been caught off guard and even suffered severe damage to their body.
But the moment the emerald needles appeared, a 'Azure Sun Shield' enveloped Fang Xing's body!
The emerald needles struggled to pierce through the azure light shield, and then they encountered clumps of dark green 'Soul Devouring Demon Flames'!
One of the emerald needles suddenly became transparent and then, under the Soul Devouring Demon Flames, turned into ashes!
From the void, a muffled hum was heard, and a green-robed lady appeared.
Her demeanor was ethereal, her beauty unparalleled, and she carried an air of coldness.
With a wave of her hand, twelve emerald needles circled around her, each emitting a green glow, and her eyes, fixed on Fang Xing, were filled with apprehension. Her voice, when she spoke, was raspy: "Demon Fire Cultivator?!"
"Since you've cultivated the Demon Fire Divine Ability, you must be after that object. Die!"
Tian Kun Upper Person coldly hummed, and a pair of golden treasure-grade flying swords appeared in his hands.
Every time these golden swords clashed, they emitted golden light and thunderous fire, accompanied by a sonic attack, creating a terrifying spectacle.
In comparison, the flying needles of the Primordial Spirit True Monarch were venomous and vicious, making them hard to defend against.
Both of these cultivators were in the early Primordial Spirit Stage and were renowned in the nearby seas.
When they combined their attacks, ordinary early Primordial Spirit Stage cultivators would have no chance.
Clang! Amidst the harp's melody, a clear phoenix cry rang out, overpowering the sound of the golden swords.
Above Fang Xing's head, a Ten Thousand Dharmas Primordial Spirit appeared, holding an Azure Yang Devil Lamp in his hand, and his fingers danced.
Plop, plop, plop!
Dark green Soul Devouring Demon Flames exploded, enveloping Tian Kun Upper Person from all directions.
A phoenix with a burning tail spread its wings and dove into the dark green fire cloud.
Fang Xing, however, turned to the green-robed Primordial Spirit True Monarch, who was coldly staring at him: "You dare to use flying needles to assassinate me?"
He extended his right index and middle fingers, and a sharp sword aura appeared.
Haa!
A brilliant sword light seemed to draw upon the power of heaven and earth, transforming into a river of sword aura that fell with a mighty crash!
"Sword Intent Formation!"
"Primordial Spirit Sword Monarch?!"
The Primordial Spirit True Monarch exclaimed, and with a flick of her fingers, she cast a spell.
Twelve flying needles arranged and combined in mid-air... gradually forming a green flying sword to meet the river of sword aura.
Then... they were scattered in all directions.
Her sword cultivation, which she had picked up later in life, was no match for a true Primordial Spirit Sword Monarch.
Fortunately, the Primordial Spirit True Monarch had never intended to rely on this 'Emerald Needle Sword' to defend against the Sword Intent Formation.
Taking advantage of the brief obstruction of the river of sword light, a yellow-skinned gourd appeared in her hand.
The gourd was the size of a fist, entirely golden yellow, and at the gourd's mouth was a circle of intricate and complex talismans.
The Primordial Spirit True Monarch removed the gourd's stopper, muttered some incantations, and infused it with her Primordial Spirit's power.
Whoosh!
Golden light flashed from the gourd, and it was enveloped in a yellow glow, blocking the Primordial Spirit True Monarch. The dark gourd mouth seemed like a bottomless abyss, swallowing up a large amount of sword aura and sword light.
Seeing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed across the Primordial Spirit True Monarch's face.
This 'Sword Swallowing Gourd' treasured artifact was acquired at a grand auction and could absorb most fourth-stage inferior-grade attacks, using the opponent's own methods against them.
It was even particularly effective against sword aura and sword qi attacks.
It was said that this was because the fourth-stage Artifact Refinement Grandmaster who crafted this treasure detested sword cultivators.
The Primordial Spirit True Monarch pinched her fingers, and a spell seal struck the Sword Swallowing Gourd.
The gourd spun, and its mouth turned towards Fang Xing, as the river of sword aura that had been sucked in now gushed out, the surging sword light resembling a tidal wave.
On the other side.
Accompanied by the clear phoenix cry, Tian Kun Upper Person escaped from the dark green fire cloud, looking disheveled, his clothes mostly burnt, and his face bearing scorch marks, appearing quite disheveled.
'This person... is definitely not a newly advanced Primordial Spirit cultivator. How can he have so many divine abilities and means?'
Tian Kun Upper Person looked at Fang Xing, his eyes flashing with apprehension and worry, regretting the direct confrontation.
"Hehe!"
Facing his own sword light, Fang Xing simply drew his sword and gently guided it.
Like a four-ounce force moving a thousand pounds, the vast river of sword aura reversed its flow.
His body and sword became one, transforming into a white light, and under the power of the Great Unrestrained Primordial Spirit Sword Aura, his sword escape speed was unmatched in the world.
The white light merged with the returning river of sword aura, piercing through the Primordial Spirit True Monarch's body like a white rainbow piercing the sun.
'Hmph... This gourd can swallow sword aura, but reversing it so abruptly will only bring about self-destruction... The Artifact Refinement Grandmaster who crafted this gourd is probably a bumbling fool.'
Fang Xing's sword pierced through the Primordial Spirit True Monarch, and he grabbed the yellow-skinned gourd.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he saw a flash of green light from the Primordial Spirit True Monarch, and a Primordial Spirit escaped into the Great Void, reappearing over a hundred li away!
"The Primordial Spirit has escaped. It can really run!"
Fang Xing nodded and glanced at Tian Kun Upper Person.
The Upper Person's entire body shuddered!
