Chapter 365: Waist Severance, Golden Buddha Aura!
Chapter 365: Waist Severance, Golden Buddha Aura!
October 7, 2024
"Junior Brother!"
An incredibly powerful and sharp blade aura slashed across the cliffs, creating a massive gash.
But what truly shocked and enraged Xuan Yi was that in front of him, several of his junior brothers were slashed by the blade aura, and in just an instant, their blood splattered as they were all waist-severed!
Whether it was their body protection aura, the spell tool short staff, or even the robust spell bodies that the junior brothers took pride in, having been tempered through countless trials, none of it could withstand the slightest bit against the unyielding killing intent and unmatched sharpness of the blade aura.
They were all sliced in two without any resistance!
"Who are you?!"
Seeing his fellow junior brothers wailing on the ground, Xuan Yi was both shocked and furious. He abruptly raised his head to look at Lu Qing.
However, Lu Qing currently had a mask on his face, and the aura emanating from his body was incredibly foreign, making it impossible for Xuan Yi to discern his origin.
"So it's true that a complete Primordial Realm cultivator who practices both body and spell cultivation has some tricks up their sleeve."
Lu Qing stood arrogantly with his sword, his voice hoarse with surprise.
He hadn't held back much with that previous strike.
It could be considered his strongest attack in his normal state.
Yet, it had failed to defeat Xuan Yi.
He had clearly seen that when the blade aura reached Xuan Yi, a layer of golden light appeared on his body, easily blocking a portion of the attack.
He knew that it must have been the unusual treasure within Xuan Yi that had automatically protected its owner.
Otherwise, with just the cultivation of the complete Primordial Realm, it wouldn't have been so easy to block his blade aura unleashed from a treasure-grade combat blade.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi's pupils suddenly constricted, and his heart was filled with even greater shock.
The fact that he cultivated both body and spell was an extremely secretive matter.
Not only were most of the sect's disciples unaware, but even a large portion of the elders didn't know about it.
Additionally, the treasure within his body could conceal his aura and heavenly providence calculations, so logically, no one should have been able to see through his true strength.
But this suddenly appearing mysterious figure with the ghost face mask had such a clear understanding of his background.
This not only shocked Xuan Yi but also made him more curious about the identity of his opponent.
"Ah! Senior Brother Xuan Yi, kill this little thief!"
"Great Elder, avenge us!"
The several bald monks who had been waist-severed did not die immediately.
The formidable vitality of the Primordial Realm allowed them to survive for a long time, even with severe injuries, as long as their divine souls weren't instantly obliterated.
Instead, the unbearable pain caused them to lose their rationality, and they screamed frantically.
As for the craftsmen who had been carving Buddha statues on the cliffs, they also completely froze.
They clung tightly to the cliff face, not daring to breathe, let alone attempt to escape.
As fellow martial artists, they had already realized when they felt the aura of Lu Qing's previous strike that this Primordial Level Combat was beyond their ability to participate in, and even spectating was extremely dangerous.
"Shut up!"
Hearing the shouts of the red-robed monks, Lu Qing's face turned cold, and he casually unleashed a few more blade auras, slashing towards the ground.
"How dare this little thief!"
Upon seeing this, Xuan Yi could no longer worry about Lu Qing's origins. He immediately released a golden aura that quickly expanded, enveloping and protecting the severed bodies of the elders.
The blade aura struck the golden light, and like before, it quickly dissipated.
However, Lu Qing had been waiting for this moment.
As soon as Xuan Yi displayed the golden light, Lu Qing also moved.
With a stomp of his foot, the boulder behind him shattered, and Lu Qing's figure appeared before Xuan Yi in an instant, as if he had teleported.
The combat blade in his hand descended like heavenly thunder, unleashing a swift and powerful slash.
This time, Lu Qing didn't use Blade Aura, but a genuine Treasure-grade Combat Blade.
A Treasure-grade Combat Blade forged entirely from Celestial Meteor Iron, its sharpness surpassed imagination, capable of piercing even defensive Spell Tools.
The golden aura shield only lasted for an instant before Lu Qing's blade sliced through it, aiming directly at Xuan Yi's face.
"Hmph!"
Xuan Yi showed no panic when his golden aura shield was breached; instead, his eyes turned cold.
Just as Lu Qing's combat blade was about to strike, a hand hidden within his wide sleeves suddenly appeared, and a large palm, glowing with golden light, fiercely pressed forward.
With this palm strike, an incredibly powerful aura erupted from Xuan Yi's body.
A massive golden Buddha shadow, several dozen feet tall, emerged behind him, extending its arm and pressing towards Lu Qing.
"Hmm?"
Lu Qing was surprised by this strange phenomenon.
However, he didn't retreat; his combat blade continued its relentless advance, directly slicing Xuan Yi's palm.
Boom!
The blade and palm collided, and under the impact of their formidable power, a violent air current erupted.
The aura unleashed by these two Primordial Realm experts made it difficult for the onlookers to breathe, their minds trembling in awe.
The craftsmen on the cliffs felt their hands and feet turn cold, their bodies trembling.
If not for their strong survival instincts, they would have fallen like dumplings from the protruding rocks on the cliffs.
"There's something strange going on."
Amidst the raging air current, Lu Qing withdrew his blade and took a few steps back.
Looking at Xuan Yi's unharmed palm, he was surprised.
His blade had failed to sever Xuan Yi's palm.
"An offensive and defensive integrated treasure?"
Lu Qing gazed at the enormous golden Buddha shadow behind Xuan Yi, which was at least seven or eight zhang tall, and at Xuan Yi's golden, dazzling arm, resembling pure gold.
Realization dawned on him; this was the power of the other party's unusual treasure.
Able to withstand the sharpness of his combat blade, Xuan Yi must be controlling a Treasure-grade artifact at the very least.
"What?!"
Lu Qing was astonished, unaware that Xuan Yi was even more shocked.
He couldn't believe that even after using his treasure, he couldn't do anything to this mysterious masked man.
The masked man's revealed cultivation level was still at the Primordial Realm, yet he had effortlessly blocked his treasure-enhanced attack.
Such strength had completely surpassed the Primordial Realm.
Moreover, the combat blade in the masked man's hand was also a treasure!
"Who are you, and why are you attacking Hanging Mountain? Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Xuan Yi's expression turned solemn as he realized the formidable power of Lu Qing. Slowly, he spoke.
Simultaneously, his mind secretly activated something, sending a strange fluctuation towards a certain location in the mountains.
"Trying to call for reinforcements?"
Lu Qing's Soul Power was incredibly sharp.
In an instant, he sensed the strange fluctuation.
He narrowed his eyes, "Old Baldy, I was planning to play with you some more, but since you're calling for help, die!"
As he spoke, a dense white radiance emanated from Lu Qing's body.
At the same time, his aura surged, becoming several times stronger than before.
"A body cultivator emitting treasure light? How is that possible!"
Xuan Yi's eyes widened in shock as he saw the white radiance emanating from Lu Qing's body, exclaiming in surprise.
However, before he could finish speaking, Lu Qing's figure suddenly vanished from his sight.
An intense sense of danger rose within Xuan Yi's heart.
