Chapter 237 – Hard Metal Jian
It was easy to imagine that if Wei Xiao Bei got hit by the jian, he would not have a pleasant time.
The battle continued on. Even if Wei Xiao Bei’s muscles were strained and injured, he still endured the pain as he stared at the Monster Jian. His ears paid attention to his surroundings as he waited for an opportunity.
Whoosh!
The great spear extended out like a dragon, heavily striking the Monster Jian.
During this kind of closely fought battle, a fragment of the Monster Jian finally fell off the Monster Jian’s body that was already full of scars. A red liquid slowly flowed out from the fragmented part.
Seeing this, Wei Xiao Bei became happy as he felt that there was a chance to eliminate it.
However, in the next instant, Wei Xiao Bei quickly pulled back as he sensed a big danger warning float up inside his mind.
Following the red liquid flow out, the Monster Jian soared up into the air and stopped at a hundred meters. Afterwards, it hovered in the air as if it had died.
In truth, Wei Xiao Bei could feel that the Monster Jian’s aura became bigger. At the end, an illusionary human figure appeared.
The human figure wore a heroic hat, a cyan body armor with five tigers design, and war boots while holding a silver spear in its right hand. The figure’s height was tall, and it was sitting on a war horse. However, its eyebrows were sharp, and eyes were squinted. A long beard that reached its chest settled between its nose and mouth.
When it looked at Wei Xiao Bei, a strong killing intent surged towards him.
Qin Qiong.
Even if Wei Xiao Bei was an idiot, he would still be able to recognize who the illusionary human figure was.
The characteristics were too clear.
Having a heroic hat that looked like a straw hat and a yellow horse, anyone who read the Sui Tang Yan Yi would never forget those characteristics.
The illusion might appear that it could be blown away by the winds, but Wei Xiao Bei did not dare have any neglect. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. His great spear moved to kill the surrounding Wooden Training Dummies. Afterwards, he grasped onto it as he stared in the sky without relaxing.
The illusion of Qin Qiong extended its left hand. When it grasped the unmoving Monster Jian, the Monster Jian’s closed eyes opened as it stared at Wei Xiao Bei’s body.
Whoosh!
In the instant, Wei Xiao Bei felt that his entire body was unable to move as if Mt.Tai was pressing down on him.
The battlelog in his status panel was continuously recording.
Battlelog:
……
3-Star Creature, Monster Jian, used Qin Family’s Jian Arts’ Sa Shou Jian.
……
Qin Qiong’s virtual image was summoned.
.…..
You have been attacked by intimidation.
……
Iron Will is activated.
……
User resists intimidation.
……
Whoosh, whoosh.
Wei Xiao Bei felt that he had regained control of his body, but just this much was enough to make his body drenched in sweat. Even his [Moisture Absorption] could not keep up with it.
However, these were small matters for Wei Xiao Bei.
The big matter was that Qin Qiong began to move. He cued the horse to move with his legs. The yellow horse moved like an arrow as it charged towards Wei Xiao Bei.
The pressure once again landed on him.
However, Wei Xiao Bei felt better then before.
As the horse charged towards Wei Xiao Bei, the silver great spear in Qin Qiong’s right hand was aimed at Wei Xiao Bei, making him feel a sharp pain on his chest.
This was the bodily reaction of a Guo Shu Expert, who had reached the peak of negative jing against threats.
This meant that the silver great spear was not a simple illusion as it carried a threat against him.
Precise Calculation!
In an instant, Qin Qiong’s path downwards had been marked in his mind like an image. Even the amount of time and other points also appeared in his mind.
Elementary Power Burst! Increase flow of Qi!
In an instant, the bulging muscles under Wei Xiao Bei’s shirt swelled up, causing his shirt to rip into pieces.
“Kill!”
Wei Xiao Bei shouted and stamped on the ground. He jumped into the sky and thrust his great spear into a straight line towards the Monster Jian that Qin Qiong was grasping in his right hand.
Whoosh.
At that moment, the yellow horse actually made a turn in mid air, making Wei Xiao Bei miss.
The silver great spear passed through Wei Xiao Bei’s left shoulder, and in the next moment, it was the true Sa Shou Jian.
The Monster Jian suddenly glowed with red light, and Qin Qiong raised its left hand and smashed down on Wei Xiao Bei’s back.
Whoosh.
Wei Xiao Bei was barely able to dodge, but he was not able to completely evade it.
The glowing Monster Jian smashed down on Wei Xiao Bei’s left arm.
Without any sounds, Wei Xiao Bei seemed to have not felt any pain as his left arm seemed to have disappeared from being by the red glow.
However, he did not split his attention. The great spear in his right hand smashed downwards, striking down the Monster Jian in Qin Qiong’s left hand.
When the Monster Jian was smashed out of Qin Qiong’s hands, Qin Qiong let out a sigh. Then the his illusion disappeared in mid air; even the majestic yellow horse vanished into thin air.
After seeing Qing Qiong disappear from the corner of his eyes, Wei Xiao Bei pursued the Monster Jian and struck its body a few times.
Although he had lost his left hand and arm, Wei Xiao Bei’s control on his great spear did not drop in proficiency. However, the Monster Jian appeared to have lost all strength after using the Sa Shou Jian. It could not dodge Wei Xiao Bei’s continuous attacks.
On the other hand, Wei Xiao Bei once again used [Precise Calculation]. He understood how easy it was to hit the unmoving Monster Jian on the ground.
With the power brought by using [Elementary Power Burst], every strike of the great spear caused a sharp whiz.
Clang, clang, clang, clang.
Wei Xiao Bei continued to accurately strike at the place on the Monster Jian that had cracked.
Finally, the Monster Jian’s body could not endure the great spear’s attacks anymore. With a loud clang, the Monster Jian’s body burst open, spraying out red liquid everywhere.
At this moment, the spearhead immediately let out a blue mist as it swallowed the red liquid like a glutinous monster, and then it returned back to the spear.
Without a doubt, the red liquid provided a lot of benefits to the great spear. A few strands of red appeared like veins on the spearhead.
Wei Xiao Bei had obtained 500 evolution points.
In truth, he was dissatisfied with only this much evolution points.
Although they were 3-Star Creatures, only the Xuan Hua Broad Axes were useful enough as they provided materials to upgrade his White Mist Knife.
On the other hand, the Monster Jian, which was a lot stronger than the Xuan Hua Broad Axe, only gave this much when Wei Xiao Bei was so close to losing his life.
Moreover, he had lost an arm. It was easy to imagine how much fighting power he had lost.
Only everything above his elbow remained as the rest of his arm had completely disappeared.
Although he had a high recovery power, fast blood staunching, and decreased pain, losing an arm made Wei Xiao Bei feel inconvenience.
Let alone other activities, just walking made him feel uncomfortable.
If it was before, losing one arm would make Wei Xiao Bei feel incredibly uncomfortable, but now, it was only a bit unpleasant. As for the feeling of loss, it was impossible for him to feel it. Wei Xiao Bei believed that in the strange Dust World, there was definitely an opportunity to recover it.
Just when Wei Xiao Bei was pondering about the problems of losing an arm, the fragments of the Monster Jian appeared to have travelled back in time as they flew everywhere. In an instant, they had merged and turned into a red jian.
After the fragments recombined, the jian fell on the ground without budging.
Wei Xiao Bei placed the great spear back into his Small Holding Bag and picked up the jian in his hands before using [Status Appraisal] on it.
Name: Hard Metal Jian (High Quality)
Description: This might or might not be the Hard Metal Jian that Qin Qiong used.
Effect 1: Heavy attack, weaken the opponents defense by 30%
Effect 2: Vibration attack, uses vibration to damage the opponent, very effective against heavy armor.
Effect 3: Twin jian coordination (Sealed)
Effect 4: Qin Family’s Jian Arts’ Sa Shou Jian (Badly Damaged), using this consumes the users stamina, careful on usage.
Effect 5: Owner Recognition. This item will initially drain 1/3 of the owner’s blood. After recognition is completed, this item will always return to the owner’s hand once a certain distance is exceeded.
……
Seeing the information on the jian, Wei XIao Bei was slightly stunned. He never imagined that the jian he had just picked up could have actually belonged to Qin Qiong. Naturally, it might also not be his as mentioned in the description.
However, no matter what was said, the heavy attack and vibration attack appeared to have nice effects. As for the fourth effect, Wei Xiao Bei had personally experienced how much killing power it had. He was even skeptical that a tank would disappeared with just one attack from the jian.
That kind of attack was something that a normal human could not endure.
Returning back to the main topic, losing his right hand made it hard for him to use the great spear. It was easy to imagine how badly it affected his fighting power.
But now, with the Hard Metal Jian that had a length of 1.2 meters, it was suitable for him to use.
Wei Xiao Bei waved the jian, and by chance, a Wooden Training Dummy was charging at him. Wei Xiao Bei hit it with the jian and activated heavy attack and vibration attack on it.
The Wooden Training Dummy did not even have the chance to retaliate as its entire body shook and suddenly broke into pieces.
Wei Xiao Bei was dumbstruck as he looked at the Hard Metal Jian in his hand.
This was something he could never have imagined. Activating both heavy attack and vibration attack carried great power. It was not inferior to a full powered strike from his White Mist Great Spear. It could even be stronger when fighting heavy armored enemies.
