Chapter 1708: Doubt

containing water, and wouldn't burn the soul like a small fireball. However, the old man in black was cunning and had calculated for so long; he definitely wouldn't do something meaningless. Since the..."Young Master Shang, there's no need to worry, no need to be too anxious. Even if you have fallen into our trap, these few people before you are nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs." 。The hooded figure let out a sinister chuckle, his body slowly rising into the air. A murderous aura emanated from him as a wave of brutal swordplay erupted, like a storm that had been brewing for centuries finally breaking free. 。The birds and beasts all around fled. 。

A furious murderous intent surged like a tsunami, a transparent small sword wrapped in a transparent light shield emerged from behind the figure in black.

The last one I killed was only at the early stage of Nascent Soul, but you're a body cultivator. That's actually quite unexpected. You're a mid-Nascent Soul body cultivator, wonder if you can withstand my sword embryo 。“Ethereal Sword Embryo” Lu Xia Tian’s eyes narrowed, Luo Zhong Ting and Dong Fang Yi’s words still echoed in his ears. 。Before that, he had felt uneasy. This cloaked man seemed to be targeting him along the way. He didn't know his intentions. Could it be because he cultivated the ethereal sword embryo

“Ethereal Sword Embryo The first of the Floating Character Sword Techniques To only cultivate to this stage, is truly heaven helping me” 。Fellow cultivator Lu, since you've cultivated the Misty Sword Art, we walk the same path. Only one of us can survive. Show me the Misty Sword Embryo you've forged. 。The Black Robe Man burst into laughter upon hearing about the ethereal sword embryo, gazing at Lu XiaTian with the same look he would give a priceless treasure. 。"You cultivated the Misty Sword Technique What does 'Drifting' in the First Sword of Drifting Character Sword Technique mean" Lu Xiaoteng became more and more puzzled as he listened. 。"If you defeat me, I will tell you. If you lose, as a dying man, you have no need to know." 。The hooded man let out a sinister smile. The sword embryo, filled with killing intent in the air, only flickered slightly, dragging its magnetic trails and hurtling towards Lu Xia Tian at an astonishing speed. 。Wherever the sword's edge passed, trees were severed and rocks split open, everywhere were jagged cuts left by the blade. 。"What an amazing flying sword!" Not to mention Yu Zi Mo, even Shang Wu Que was taken aback by this crisscrossing sword embryo. 。Before, I thought that with more of us, my men and I could overwhelm Niu Jinshan and this cloaked man with sheer numbers. Now, I realize how naive I was. 。"Lu Ge, you be careful." 。Yu Zi Mo, Zhou Yu, Cui Liu and Guo Jing Yu all changed color. As soon as this black-robed man drew his sword, they could even feel their magic treasures trembling in fear of it. 。

He who is afraid before battle is already defeated.

The speed of the sword embryo before my eyes has reached an unbelievable level. 。exceeded their capacity to cope 。Just the aura of killing intent emanating from this black-robed figure was enough to send shivers down their spines. 。Even the most powerful among them, Yu Zi Mo, didn't think she could withstand even a few moves against this cloaked figure. Truly worthy of being the senior brother of Niu Jing Shan, the tenth-ranked champion! "Take care yourselves," 。"Lu Xiaitian responded to Yu Zimo, this black-robed man's sword embryo was truly extraordinary. Under the crisscrossing of the sword embryo, in the blink of an eye, the once dense forest on the ground had been cut apart by sword qi into a bare patch." 。As the two battled, the rocky hills with their ups and downs were carved into flat, mirror-like breaks. 。The Robe Man's original position was now utterly devoid of any trace, his entire being having merged with the sword embryo. 。

To stay here and fight the robed man would only affect Yu Zi Mo and the others.

“Huang Yi Style!” Lu Xia Tian held his halberd in both hands, his face solemn. At this time, the surroundings were filled with looming sword embryos, which was caused by the opponent's speed being too fast. 。This heavenly painted halberd was extremely heavy. Even with Lu Xia Tian's strength, wielding this battle halberd forged from the crystal of a star beast, his speed was far inferior to the black-robed man whose sword and body had become one. 。

And the eight forms of Great Desolation War Halberd that Lu Xia Tian cultivated were halberd techniques passed down from the ancient barbaric era.

At that time, all kinds of techniques were in their nascent stages. The ancestors of humankind fought fiercely with other races, and there weren't many complex variations. There was only the constant refinement through trial and error, stripping away the extraneous and retaining the essential. 。Lu Xia Tian's movement speed wasn't fast, but each time he swung his halberd, whether it was a slash, a thrust, or a horizontal sweep, it was refined to the extreme. It was simply the combination of raw power and speed. 。Not a single superfluous flourish. 。Every strike is perfectly placed. 。The black-robed man's transformed sword embryo was terrifying. The murderous aura shook the mountains and the earth, causing birds and beasts to flee in fright. Even ordinary cultivators at the Divine Transformation stage found it difficult to hold their ground under this overwhelming pressure, already suppressed before the battle even began. 。However, Lu Xia Tian has progressed from a low-level cultivator to the present. 。The severity of his methods was probably no less than any other cultivator of the same rank. The number of demon beasts who died at his hands, especially during the Golden Core period's soul-swallowing cultivation, far exceeded what ordinary cultivators could imagine. 。If he had not cultivated Buddhist or Taoist practices and constantly purged his killing intent, he would have long since been consumed by it. He would either have become a mere tool of slaughter or died from demonic possession due to going too far in his cultivation. 。Where else can one achieve the current state of being 。The other party's killing intent was somewhat like that deliberately cultivated during cultivation. 。Perhaps this man in black has shed a lot of blood, far more than an ordinary cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage. 。The killing intent accumulated by Lu Xia Tian solely due to killing, instead of being something terrifying, felt more like a joke. 。It's unrealistic to expect to influence Lu Xia Tian's heart and mind. 。However, the power of this person's sword embryo was indeed extraordinary, surpassing his own ethereal sword embryo by a considerable margin. 。If one were to employ the illusory sword embryo against an opponent, it is likely that within a few rounds, defeat would be imminent. 。

It's just the Ephemeral Sword Technique, just one of the many cultivation techniques Lu Xia Tian practiced.

And most importantly, 。The sword qi released by the black-robed man's blade was hundreds or even thousands strong, yet facing Lu Xia Tian, the black-robed man was also enraged, feeling like a dog biting a hedgehog, unable to find an opening. 。Although he was surrounded by his released sword qi, for ordinary cultivators, facing his sword embryo, they would absolutely not dare to be careless about the sword qi scattered around them. Even a slight mistake would result in being dismembered. 。

As for the current cultivator in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, these scattered sword qi are completely ignored by him. He doesn't even bother to defend against them.

not to mention posing a threat to it 。While Jian Tai's speed was even faster, against Lu Xia Tian's set of sword techniques that simplified complexity, imbued with the vastness and wilderness of the cosmos, and exuded a powerful aura. 。you can't get much of a bargaing this scene, couldn't help but clench their teeth. As the vanguard of the celestial army, they were the elite forces assembled by the Heavenly Punishment Palace. They were closely connected, not only...
