Chapter 1397: A Hidden Twist

Chapter 1397: A Hidden Twist

However, Li Qingshan was not Shen Yushu’s opponent. Even he knew that himself.

If it were a bloody slaughter in the wilderness devoid of any people, he would definitely be the one who survived in the end, but in the Xuanwu arena, all of his advantages had been stripped away one by one.

First of all, under the watch of the three direct disciples, he could not use any innate abilities. This was the Human realm, not the Daemonic Beast realm. Daemons could only exist as mounts. Even the Spirit Reverend of Ocean Returnance was no exception. There was no room for him to manoeuvre about here either, so most of his battle experience had become useless.

Secondly, Shen Yushu had learnt his lesson and came with ample preparation this time. He was unable to catch him off-guard again. Trying to rip through that “fortress of metal” woven from great trees with just his physique was completely impossible. The Qilin Transformation allowed him to control plants to a certain degree, but that definitely did not include the enemy’s techniques. At least, he was not capable of something like that right now.

Last of all, that woman Chao Tianjiao was truly someone well-versed in battle. Taking away his Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End was basically like pulling the rug from under him. She had pulled out his final tooth, forcing him into an extremely awkward position.

If he could still defeat a Yin Soul cultivator who was about to undergo the fifth heavenly tribulation so easily with so many disadvantages, then there would be no so-called difference between cultivation realms in the cultivation community.

Yes, Chao Tianjiao had guessed correctly. His so-called “letting you take three moves first” was merely an act.

Trying to reason with her was useless. As she had said, this was her territory. She could oppress him and harass him, and what could he do? Panic? Resent her? Quit joking. The fear and fury would only make his defeat come swifter and more miserably.

As a result, he was better off deceiving the opponent first and buying time before coming up with a counterplan!

He had a flash of inspiration. Apart from the Nine Transformations of the Demonic and Divine, I think I have the Heavenly Tome of Liberty as well!

When Shen Yushu yelled out “Yin Soul projection”, he also uttered, “Soul nascence projection!”

When Shen Yushu’s Yin Soul took to the air, the lively “little Li Qingshan” dove into the ground beneath his feet.

When Li Qingshan said “it’s my turn now”, it dived head first into Shen Yushu’s body. Shen Yushu was determined, powering the trees as hard as he could as he tried to crush Li Qingshan to death. Even if I can’t kill you, I’ll destroy your body and leave you with a soul nascence. That is also enough!

With a great rumble, the colossal trees shook violently; their leaves all wilted and fell.

The destructive power within the soul nascence directly reduced his body of flesh that was not particularly powerful to dust.

“What did you do!?”

Shen Yushu’s expression changed drastically. At that moment, he felt like the world was collapsing around him. He lost control over everything as a myriad of emotions surged forth without any restraint. Even his Yin Soul twisted with it.

Chao Tianjiao widened her eyes, also slightly stunned.

Pi Yangqiu was surprised. “Shen Yushu’s body has been destroyed… but how did he do it?”

Le Tian said, “Heh, my dark horse is capable of anything and everything!”

“You need to protect your body properly!” Li Qingshan used this opportunity to escape from between the trees, digging into his ear with his little finger. “Soul nascences sure are convenient. It even saved me from using my fists.”

Chao Tianjiao said, “That’s impossible. How can he still control his body after projecting his soul nascence!?”

Soul nascences were extremely delicate. There were no Soul Nascence cultivators who would project their soul nascences without good reason, and after projecting it, they would lose control over their bodies. The even more unbelievable aspect was that Shen Yushu’s Woodland Imprisonment was not just a sturdy forest, but a barrier akin to a formation too. Even Yin Souls could not move through it easily, let alone a mere soul nascence.

Pi Yangqiu said in thought, “He’s the first one to practise the Heavenly Tome of Liberty, so there must be wonders that even we don’t know of!” However, he also had some doubts. Every single heavenly tome was profound and wondrous, but he was only a Soul Nascence cultivator!

However, Li Qingshan was not an ordinary Soul Nascence cultivator at all. Even if his soul nascence were destroyed, he could still run and jump about.

We are hosted novel, find us on google.

As someone who practised the Heavenly Tome of Liberty, he was particularly good at movement and escape techniques, so not only did the trees fail to pose as an obstacle, but they had instead become a medium for his soul nascence to use wood movement techniques on. He simply followed it and ended up reaching Shen Yushu.

He had not actually learnt any specific movement or escape techniques either. Everything was almost his natural instincts. This was the result of his soul nascence being refined by the small world in his body. Because the Qilin Transformation was currently his shortcoming, his ability to move through wood was not particularly powerful. It had taken him quite some time to pass through the woodland. If it had been water or earth instead, he probably would have reached him instantly.

So he intentionally aggravated Shen Yushu and made him project his Yin Soul. What a crafty kid!

A hint of adoration clashed through Chao Tianjiao’s eyes. This was basically a great gamble where he staked everything on it, willingly casting himself into dire straits, yet he could actually remain so composed. His courage truly was something else.

Actually, she had still underestimated Li Qingshan. Even if Shen Yushu had not projected his Yin Soul, Li Qingshan could still send his soul nascence over to directly blow up. However, that would result in significant losses for him too. It was best if he did not do something like that unless he had no other choice.

Shen Yushu’s Yin Soul flew back to the centre of the fortress of metal. It was empty there, without a single droplet of blood. He immediately became dejected and even his Yin Soul dimmed as a result. The destruction of their body was a great loss to a cultivator, and the consequences were more severe the lower their cultivation was.

He was currently in a critical period where he prepared for the fifth heavenly tribulation. It was all over now. He had to waste over a century at the very least before he could make up for this, and by then, he might have missed his opportunity.

“Li Qingshan, I’m going to kill you!”

Shen Yushu roared hysterically and furiously. His Yin Soul erupted with light. Twisted by his emotions, his voice and his appearance had almost become inhuman.

The trees danced furiously, surging towards Li Qingshan like turbulent waves.

Li Qingshan also felt a little troubled now. Perhaps there was nothing terrifying about a hysterical enemy, but they were very troublesome. Completely destroying Shen Yushu’s Yin Soul was not that easy, and he had to take Ruan Yaozhu’s feelings into consideration. She probably would not want to see him kill anyone, especially when it was a fellow disciple that he was familiar with.

At this moment, a figure brushed past him. The Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End flew up, landing in the person’s hand.

With a flash, the blade sliced through the trees, sending splinters flying everywhere like a snowstorm.

Li Qingshan stood in the centre of the snowstorm. He could sense the slashes whistle past him. Every single attack was not something he could fend off.

“Enough, the outcome has been determined!” The surroundings immediately fell quiet again.

Li Qingshan gazed at Chao Tianjiao’s proud and straight figure. This was the power of the first senior sister of the Myriad sect!

Chao Tianjiao’s gaze was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head. Shen Yushu’s frenzied and twisted Yin Soul recovered a hint of clarity. He said reluctantly, “First senior sister, I haven’t lost yet!”

Chao Tianjiao said, “According to the rules of the duel, it’s your loss if your body is destroyed. You better gather your focus and suppress your emotions unless you want to become a ghost.”

She turned around and passed the Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End to Li Qingshan. “You’ve won. Nice blade!”

“Thanks.”

“You don’t belong in the Hundred Herbs garden. I will find more suitable work for you which will guarantee you even more contribution and bookmarks. In short, I’ll watch over you.” Li Qingshan was just about to answer when she interrupted him. “Be aware, this isn’t a suggestion!”
