Chapter 183: Chapter 51: Competition

—

The flying sword, enveloped in a myriad of fine sword Qi, directly struck the blue light in the mouth of the Jiao Elder.

The next moment.

Boom.

Burst.

Under this strike, the blue light prematurely exploded inside the mouth of the Jiao Old, causing his gaping maw to be blasted into a bloody mess.

But at the same time, the flying sword also burst.

Wood splinters and some sawdust flew about.

Due to inertia, the body of the Jiao Elder still slammed directly into Mo Yan’s fire shield.

A huge ripple of energy expanded outward.

The Netherfire dissipated, and the Jiao Elder halted.

On the body of the Jiao Elder, where it collided with the fire shield, some dragon scales were charred, but ultimately, it was unharmed.

All the damage was on its mouth.

Its long-charged attack backfired, causing it excruciating pain.

“To act so recklessly amidst such a chaotic battlefield,” Lu Qingshan suddenly appeared beside Mo Yan, quietly reprimanding.

“I was reckless, thanks to Fellow Daoist Lu for lending a helping hand,” Mo Yan, having narrowly survived, was immensely grateful to Lu Qingshan.

Accompanying Lu Qingshan were Zang Xiaojian and Qin Yitian.

“Another flying sword destroyed,” Lu Qingshan frowned slightly, then turned to asked Zang Xiaojian, “Do you have another flying sword? Please lend me one for temporary use.”

The might of a flying sword is determined by three factors: the intrinsic quality and power of the sword artifact, the sword master’s spiritual power, the strength of their Divine Soul, and the mastery over the flying sword technique by the sword master.

Having enhanced his Sword Technique to max level and having improved his cultivation and Divine Soul, Lu Qingshan’s power of the flying sword had undergone substantive enhancement.

The Spiritual Power Amplification talent granted him a +30% increase, also enhancing the power of the sword Qi released using the same amount of spiritual power by an immense 30%.

The Peach Wood Sword, merely a low-grade mortal artifact, naturally couldn’t withstand the famously sharp sword Qi and was shattered just like the Crying Soul Sword before it.

Hearing Lu Qingshan’s request, Zang Xiaojian swiftly pulled out a sword from her storage ring–a blue light immediately shot from her hand to hover in front of Lu Qingshan.

“Green Wind Sword, low-grade spiritual artifact,” Zang Xiaojian introduced.

Lu Qingshan accepted the flying sword, inwardly clicking his tongue.

A low-grade spiritual artifact–this quality was far superior to his Peach Wood Sword.

To casually pull out such a valuable item.

This little rich miss.

…

“Master Mo, leave this evil Jiao to us three brothers,” after Lu Qingshan halted the Jiao Elder’s attack, the Dragon Slaying Saber Cultivator quickly reacted, and in no time, three Golden Core cultivators swiftly came to support.

Lu Qingshan knew these three.

They were indeed the renowned trio, the Lianyun Heroes.

Master Mo nodded slightly to the Lianyun Heroes, “Good, this Jiao is not simple, be careful, all of you.”

For Mo Yan, dealing with a second-grade Jiao Beast was the most cost-effective choice.

Given the power of Netherfire, slaying a second-grade Jiao Beast was as easy as flipping his hand, highly efficient.

After a failed attack that left it severely wounded.

The Jiao Elder let out an unsatisfied and enraged roar, wanting to make another move on Mo Yan.

However, the Lianyun Heroes had already formed an encirclement, preventing the Jiao Elder from escaping.

…

Zang Xiaojian, looking at the Jiao Beasts circling around, brimmed with excitement, “Come on, let’s see who can kill more Jiao Beasts in this battle!”

Mo Yan blanked out for a moment, but then laughed heartily after regaining his senses, “Alright, let’s see who can kill more!”

Lu Qingshan did not join the conversation, but responded with his actions.

Boom!

The Green Wind Sword whizzed out, tearing through the air in mid-flight, creating a sonic boom as it followed a curved trajectory around a nearby Second Grade Jiao Beast, shuttling back and forth more than a dozen times with lightning speed. The sword’s shadow flickered as it continuously jabbed, pierced, and hammered the beast’s fleshy body.

In the end, giant holes appeared at the Jiao Beast’s brow, abdomen, and back, with several vital areas penetrated.

The Jiao Beast widened its eyes in disbelief as it looked at Lu Qingshan, who was controlling the Flying Sword, and let out an unwilling growl before collapsing with a massive thud.

“The first one,” Lu Qingshan muttered as he pursed his lips.

“Lu, how did you become so strong?” Mo Yan’s eyes widened in shock, feeling the aura of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with Perfection emanating from Lu Qingshan, he was completely astonished.

Just a moment ago, in the shock of it all, he had not noticed this point, but now, coming back to his senses, he discovered the change in Lu Qingshan’s cultivation, immediately falling into shock and confusion.

He clearly remembered that not long ago, Lu Qingshan was still a mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Had he been hiding his cultivation?

“Moreover, even for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with Perfection, the power of the Flying Sword shouldn’t be so immense!” Mo Yan’s ears were still echoing with the sonic boom created by Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword breaking the sound barrier.

Just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword had already broken the sound barrier.

In the realm of Flying Swords, the first level is speed of sound, and the second level is Sword Burst Thunder Sound.

Each breakthrough in realm would dramatically transform the power of the Flying Sword.

At this moment, the power of Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword could already compare to that of a Golden Core Sword Cultivator.

With this astonishing Flying Sword Technique, Lu Qingshan’s speed in harvesting Second Grade Jiao Beasts became almost exaggeratedly fast.

He could use Netherfire to kill Jiao Beasts faster than Lu Qingshan.

But the issue was that his Netherfire, unlike Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword, could not be continuously emitted.

The power of Netherfire was too ferocious; under normal circumstances, he would only dare to mobilize a very slight layer of Netherfire power, enhancing it with spells or magic artifacts to increase his combat power.

Those ferocious attacks, like just now, that instantly killed four Second Grade Jiao Beasts, required him to recover for a while before he could launch them again, otherwise, it would cause great damage to his meridians.

In other words, this move had a cooldown time.

In his previous understanding, he had always thought that among the three of them, in terms of strength, it should be him and Zang Xiaojian on equal footing, with Lu Qingshan, although also very outstanding, still slightly behind them.

Now, he could only view himself as a frog in the well, having been too confident in himself.

Compared to Mo Yan, whose mind was filled with hundreds of thoughts in an instant, Zang Xiaojian was much simpler, just staring at Lu Qingshan with bright eyes, full of admiration.

Mom was right; there are always people better than you, and skies beyond skies.

Even in the clan, at the time of Foundation Establishment, there might be no one who could surpass Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan was truly powerful!

Zang Xiaojian thought to herself.

Although she admired Lu Qingshan’s impressive performance, Zang Xiaojian was not the type to easily concede, and her competitive spirit was even instantly aroused.

The mysterious Power of Heaven and Earth enhanced her Flying Sword.

Crack!

The sound of a sonic boom occurred once again.

Unlike the raging Sword Qi of Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword, Zang Xiaojian’s Flying Sword carried not only the sharp Sword Qi but also an inexplicable Power of Heaven and Earth.

That was Sword Intent.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Like skewering candied haws, Zang Xiaojian’s strike penetrated the heads of three Second Grade Jiao Beasts in succession, with the energy on the Flying Sword finally exhausted.

But that was it.

Zang Xiaojian took a breath.

Similarly, her move, like Mo Yan’s fierce Netherfire attack, also had a cooldown time.

In terms of burst damage, Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword power could not match Zang Xiaojian and Mo Yan.

After all, how could a small skill compare with a great ultimate?

But in terms of endurance in battle, they were far inferior to Lu Qingshan.

After all, if a great ultimate could be used continuously, would it still be called a great ultimate?
