Chapter 15: A Strand of Sword Intent
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As soon as Qi Ming finished speaking, Cao Yunhai’s eyes narrowed slightly. A vicious glint flashed past as his two-meter-tall body shot out like a tiger or wolf.
Boom!
A deep hole was created in the ground of the arena beneath his feet, and shattered earth and rocks flew in all directions.
Roar!
Accompanied by the sound of a tiger’s roar,
Cao Yunhai’s attack was extremely domineering. He circulated his spiritual qi and the blood qi in his body surged, forming a layer of green light flowing on the surface of his body.
Li Feiyun recognized it. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, “This is the Green Cloud Five Tiger Seal. This power is much stronger than mine. It has definitely reached the realm of Outstanding.”
Moreover…
Cao Yunhai was still wearing the high-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure, the Demon Tiger Fist Glove. Coupled with the Green Cloud Five Tiger Seal, it could increase his power to the maximum.
Wang Dafa grinned and said, “As expected of Senior Brother Cao, I was defeated by this punch. Now, I’m a little traumatized. I wonder if this Qi Ming can withstand it.”
In the surroundings, everyone focused their attention on the battle.
Boom!
There was a loud sound.
Qi Ming took a step forward. In the eyes of these servant disciples, it was as if he teleported, and he left the spot to easily avoid Cao Yunhai’s punch.
Cao Yunhai’s punch hit nothing but a one-meter-wide hole in the ground. Spider web-like cracks appeared around the hole.
“What incredible speed.”
“What movement technique is this?”
“So fast.”
“Qi Ming avoided it.”
Everyone exclaimed.
“Nine Spirit Illusion Steps.”
Mu Qing was surprised and even felt that it was unbelievable, “From the situation just now, Qi Ming’s Nine Spirit Illusion Steps has definitely reached the Mastered realm. It can even be said to have reached Outstanding.”
“This…”
Mu Qing was shocked.
One had to know, from the time Qi Ming obtained the Nine Spirit Illusion Steps until now, it had only been less than five days. He had actually cultivated the Nine Spirit Illusion Steps to this extent.
Genius!
He was definitely a genius!
“Such a genius was actually buried in the servant quarters. If he was in our Myriad Demon Cave, he would have been nurtured as a ‘Demon Child’.”
Mu Qing pursed his lips and thought to himself, “I can only say that the Heaven Enlightenment Sect has simply buried an outstanding disciple.”
On the stage, Cao Yunhai was completely kited by Qi Ming and could not touch the corner of Qi Ming’s clothes at all. Every punch and every move landed on empty air and could not injure him at all.
“This…”
“Unbelievable, unbelievable indeed.”
“I didn’t expect Qi Ming to have such a movement technique. Furthermore, his mastery of this movement technique is definitely not low.”
“I originally thought that Qi Ming would be completely beaten by Cao Yunhai.”
“From the looks of it, it’s hard to say who will win.”
The servant disciples discussed.
Wang Dafa, Zhang Wenxiu, and the others sneered a few times and said, “Ignorant. You don’t know Senior Brother Cao’s true strength at all. The Green Cloud Five Tiger Seal is only one of the spells that Senior Brother Cao has grasped.”
Cao Yunhai took a deep breath. He was not angry at all. Instead, he was very calm. He said in a deep voice, “Qi Ming, you’re like a mud fish. You only know how to run.”
“To be honest, you’ve indeed angered me.”
As soon as he finished speaking…
Cao Yunhai reached out and took out a tiger-headed saber from the inferior-grade storage bag at his waist. The blade was pitch-black like ink, but there were wisps of blood threads.
“This saber is called the Tiger Demon Saber, a high-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure.” Cao Yunhai said.
Clang!
Qi Ming reached out and took out the ‘Skeleton Sword’. He used the ‘inferior-grade storage bag’ at his waist as a cover. Speaking of which, this inferior-grade storage bag was still the one that contained a thousand low-grade spirit stones last time.
Qi Ming paused for a moment and said, “This is called ‘Sword’. It’s a medium-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure.”
Cao Yunhai shouted, “Which means to say, your talisman treasure is inferior to mine, your spells are inferior to mine, and your experience in fights is inferior to mine. Other than your cultivation level being higher than mine, what right do you have to defeat me?”
“You will definitely lose!!!”
Swish!
His figure swayed.
After Cao Yunhai held the Tiger Demon Saber, his entire aura completely changed. His burly body became extremely agile, and his saber techniques were even more domineering.
In the blink of an eye, Cao Yunhai arrived before Qi Ming.
“Wind Sweeping Cloud Saber Technique.”
The saber technique that Cao Yunhai executed was indeed like a whirlwind sweeping away the clouds. The saber qi whistled past like a violent wind, and his attacks were extremely overbearing as he pressed forward step by step.
Very strong!
He was indeed very strong!
Swish!
Qi Ming retreated again and avoided Cao Yunhai’s sharp slashes while the latter closed in. In the eyes of everyone, Qi Ming seemed to be suppressed and could not fight back. He could only dodge.
In fact, Qi Ming was only adapting to the Nine Spirit Illusion Steps that had reached the Outstanding realm. After all, Qi Ming had cultivated for a few days and raised the Nine Spirit Illusion Steps and Green Cloud Sword Technique to a very high level of mastery.
However, this was the first time Qi Ming had used the Nine Spirit Illusion Steps in battle.
He really needed to get used to it.
“Wind Sweeping Cloud Saber Technique, this is already a top-grade Qi Refinement realm technique. Also, although Cao Yunhai’s movement technique is only the commonly seen Green Cloud Steps in the Green Cloud Peak, it has also reached the level of Outstanding.”
“Qi Ming is definitely going to lose.”
“Indeed.”
“Qi Ming has no chance of winning.”
“…”
The many servant disciples seemed to have already seen the outcome.
Clang!
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound.
It sounded like it was right beside the spectators’ ears.
Everyone looked over.
This was the first time Qi Ming took the initiative to attack after fighting Cao Yunhai. He raised his hand and stabbed out with his sword. The tip of the sword touched Cao Yunhai’s blade, and the surrounding saber lights quickly dissipated.
“You!!!”
Cao Yunhai’s pupils were constricted.
Qi Ming said indifferently, “Your strength is not bad, but you still need to practice.”
“Time to lose.”
“Green Cloud Sword Technique.”
Qi Ming’s right hand shook, and the Skeleton Sword seemed to have come alive in his hand. His spiritual qi circulated, and sword lights flowed like clouds, containing traces of the Green Cloud Sword Intent.
In an instant, the sword qi enveloped Cao Yunhai.
“So fast!”
Swish!
A green sword light flashed past as fast as lightning. Everyone could not see Qi Ming’s figure clearly. This sword was very fast, very sharp, and also very powerful.
Boom!
The Tiger Demon Saber in Cao Yunhai’s hand was sent flying. The spiritual qi on his body dissipated, and fine sword scars appeared all over his body with traces of blood seeping out.
Finally, the tip of the Skeleton Sword in Qi Ming’s hand was already at Cao Yunhai’s throat. He only needed to take half a step forward and the opponent’s throat would be directly pierced.
There was silence.
Everyone fell silent.
They were dumbfounded.
Everyone was completely stunned.
It could be said that…
From the moment Qi Ming made his move to the end, it only took a few seconds before the move that Cao Yunhai was proud of was defeated.
“I… I…”
Cao Yunhai did not dare to believe it, was unwilling to accept this result, and his eyes were filled with confusion, “Why is this happening? This is impossible, this is impossible…”
Xiao Fan was stunned. He saw through the secret, “A strand of sword intent. That was a strand of sword intent just now. Although it’s very subtle, it was sword intent!”
“Perfection realm!”
“Qi Ming has actually cultivated the Green Cloud Sword Technique to the Perfection realm!”
“Gasp…”
“Too strong, too strong.”
“I see. No wonder Cao Yunhai lost so completely.”
Tang Bing reacted. “So Qi Ming has already cultivated the Green Cloud Sword Technique to the Perfection realm and has already condensed a strand of sword intent.”
“Senior… Senior Brother Cao actually lost.”
Wang Dafa and Zhang Wenxiu were also dumbfounded.
“The first match of the finals, No. 15 Qi Ming wins.”
After a moment, the elder announced the result.
There was an uproar.
“Qi Ming! Qi Ming! Qi Ming!”
The next moment, the thousands of servant disciples cheered in unison.
