Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
It was dawn, and there were almost no people in the square in the center of the city.
“This kid…” The disciples of the Nanhua Faction who had been talking about Nanhua Heavenly Light and spiritual treasures were enraged. “You want to increase the difficulty?!”
He is audacious!
You would be lucky if you don’t get killed! How dare you ask for treasures?!
“Senior Sister Liu!” One female disciple stood up and said, “If you don’t teach this guy a lesson, he will think that he is the most powerful guy in the world!”
“This kid is despicable! We must teach him a hard lesson!”
“He is greedy and dares to ask for treasures! He’s shameless!”
While the cultivators of the Black Dragon Office and the Nanhua Faction yelled and cussed, Huangpu Tao also became indignant. “You’re too greedy!”
“How can you call me greedy?” Fang Qi said, “It’s an insult to me. This is a fair bet. If I lose, I’ll give you the sword control technique that I just used, okay?”
“What?!” Now, even Huangpu Tao was stupefied. After all, when Fang Qi used the sword control technique, even he, a grand cultivator with high cultivation strength, couldn’t catch up. He would love to have this flying sword technique if he could!
He was surprised that Fang Qi dared to place this technique on the bet!
The white-clothed woman’s shoulders shook with fury. In the Nanhua Faction, one of the biggest factions in the Morning Star Sea Realm, she had studied all kinds of secret spiritual spells of the faction since she was very young, and her cultivation strength and spiritual spell knowledge far surpassed her peers. She well deserved the name of Nanhua Heavenly Fairy!
The young man in front of her looked to be a beginner in cultivation, but he was so arrogant that he was insulting her with his bet.
“Okay!” Her voice shook with fury. “As long as you are able to get it!”
Her slim fingers opened, and several snow-white, ice-crystal-like silk threads shot out of her sleeves. These slim ice threads moved in the sky like flying dragons and coiled around each other gradually, and they turned into a translucent cage made of ice and snow, imprisoning Fang Qi in the center!
I’m being kind and giving you a fair duel. Why are you so angry? Fang Qi thought resentfully.
“What’s this treasure? It’s powerful!” Seeing this, the cultivators of the Black Dragon Office exclaimed, “If we don’t build Qian-Kun Dragon-Locking Array, the Black Dragon Chains are no match for this spiritual treasure!”
“This is the first spiritual treasure given by the Faction Master, and it’s called Snow Treasure Ice Silk Threads! This treasure is refined with the precious 3,000-year-old Ice Silk Threads and essence of Snow Treasure. It took our Faction Master three years to create this treasure,” a male cultivator of the Nanhua Faction explained proudly, “The silk threads not only are tough, fireproof, and waterproof, but they can freeze people’s spiritual essence with their powerful chilling presence. If anyone is trapped by them, surrendering is the only option!”
“Where’s your spiritual treasure?!” While handling the ice silk threads, the woman in white asked with a cold expression.
Fang Qi pointed at his sword beside him and said, “One sword is enough for me.”
“Arrogant!” With a cold expression, she unleashed tremendous spiritual energy, and the ground around Fang Qi was covered by a thick layer of ice and frost!
Even the air began to freeze!
“Back off! Back off!” Several gasps sounded, and the surrounding people retreated immediately!
The ground that they stood on was frozen. If they were one second late, they would have been frozen into ice sculptures!
Immense chilly energy condensed around those few slim threads, turning the moisture in the air into ice frost. It looked as if several dragons made of ice were flying in the sky!
The cage began to shrink!
“The kid is finished!” The disciples of the Nanhua Faction were elated. After all, when the Snow Treasure Ice Silk Threads was used to this degree, no miracle could save him!
“Admit defeat! Do you want to freeze to death in Senior Sister Liu’s spiritual treasure?!” A disciple of the Nanhua Faction yelled.
“I thought you were strong, but I was wrong! You are very weak in reality!”
“Are you going to admit defeat?” The woman in white walked closer to the ice cage that had almost solidified and looked at the person imprisoned inside with displeasure.
At this moment, her pupils suddenly contracted
From the ice cage which was completely separated from the outside world, she heard a shout, “Sword! Come!”
She didn’t know if she heard it right.
Then, she heard gasps from the surrounding people who all pointed at the sky, and she was a little surprised.
She looked up and saw that the sky was covered by dense swords which blocked the sunshine, and they crashed down with tremendous force!
Boom! Boom…
Many swords fell like shooting stars, and the huge ice cage was instantly shattered into ice dust. Even the ice-crystal-like silk threads were pinned onto the ground!
All of them gaped at the scene. In the center of the tens of thousand swords, that young man had half a cigarette between his fingers.
Feeling chills inside, the surrounding people retreated dozens of steps!
If the horrifying swords stabbed them, they would have died many times!
The woman tried to pull up the Snow Treasure Ice Silk Threads that were pinned onto the ground and failed; she immediately gave up.
Seeing her expression getting colder, Fang Qi was afraid that she would get angry and go back on her words.
Hurried, he flattered her, “You forced me to block your attack with my trump card! Your…”
Suddenly, he realized that he didn’t know the name of her spiritual treasure. He stammered for a few seconds in embarrassment and finally said, “Those… threads are really powerful!”
“Snow Treasure Ice Silk Threads!” She gritted her teeth so hard that her teeth almost shattered.
With a dark expression, she took out the second spiritual treasure, which was a small green jade fan.
The small fan flew out of her storage spiritual artifact and instantly grew to the height of about one meter. On each side of the jade fan was a picture of a unique beast.
The jade fan waved twice, and violent wind instantly roared like thunder!
“What’s special about this fan?”
“Wind… Wind-Roaring Fan!” The disciples of the Nanhua Faction had cold sweat on their bodies. “The wind blades kill the physical body! Wind roars suppress the soul. This kid is finished! Senior Sister Liu is unleashing her full force!”
In the next moment, a wave of swords swarmed through the square.
To everyone’s horror, the Wind-Roaring Fan was sent flying!
“How come the wind roars had no effect on you?!” The woman in white was terrified. After all, the Wind-Roaring Fan could blow people’s souls out of their bodies!
“You mean that?” Fang Qi shook off the burned ashes from the end of the cigarette and said, “I felt a bit dizzy but recovered immediately after taking a puff of the cigarette.”
He presented the remaining cigarette to her and asked, “Do you want to try it? One puff refreshes your mind, and two puffs energizes your body.”
“!!??”
Damn you!!
The Nanhua Heavenly Fairy formed a spiritual spell with both hands and chanted a long incantation. Then, her whole body was lifted by a mysterious force while heavenly wind surrounded her; the space between the heaven and the earth turned dark while the thunders bolts and lightning flashes swirled around her like lightning snakes, forming a lightning curtain!
The disciples of the Nanhua Faction were excited. “Nanhua Heavenly Light! Senior Sister Liu is using the Nanhua Heavenly Light!”
“I’m surprised that I can see the current Heavenly Fairy use the Heavenly Light Technique!” Even Huangpu Tao looked up at the sky and exclaimed in appreciation and astonishment.
