Chapter 618: Ambush (Part 2)


Tang Xue Ning's Lifebound Flying Sword targeted the third of Ping's Three Evil, who was walking at the front, naturally making him the best target.

Under the overwhelming momentum of Tang Xue Ning's Lifebound Flying Sword, Li Yuanba's Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword appeared dim and lackluster.

The target of the Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword was the second of Ping's Three Evil. Li Yuanba's level was lower than Tang Xue Ning's, so even under the same Power Storage Secret Method, his Lifebound Flying Sword was not as fast as Tang Xue Ning's.

Of course, from the Cultivation Room to the entrance of the hall, the Lifebound Flying Sword exploded under the Power Storage Secret Method, achieving immediate activation.

The third of Ping's Three Evil realized the attack too late. His only option was to abandon his physical body and have his Nascent Soul escape.

Tang Xue Ning's Lifebound Flying Sword pierced through all the defenses of the third of Ping's Three Evil, those life-saving artifacts were crushed as easily as dry leaves under the terrifying Sword Intent of this Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator, Tang Xue Ning.

The Lifebound Flying Sword hit the physical body of the third of Ping's Three Evil, and although the third reacted very quickly, his Nascent Soul immediately began to emerge but stopped halfway through.

It wasn't that he didn't want his Nascent Soul to emerge, but Tang Xue Ning's terrifying Sword Intent, which was an Icy Sword Intent, froze everything as it hit the body, including his physical body and Nascent Soul.

With the sound of 'crack,' the body of the third of Ping's Three Evil turned into ice shards and fell to the ground.

Tang Xue Ning's Lifebound Flying Sword killed the third of Ping's Three Evil, and by this delay, the Lifebound Flying Sword was overtaken by the Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword.

The Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword hit the defensive magic shield of the second of Ping's Three Evil. Because everything happened too quickly, even the second of Ping's Three Evil, ranking second, didn't have time to make more defenses.

He only activated a defense spell on his robe, which was his means of survival.

When the Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword came into contact with the magic shield, the 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' on its tip took effect, slicing a crack in the shield.

This crack was enough for the Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword to pass through. Just as the second of Ping's Three Evil thought the defensive spell had blocked the sudden flying sword attack, the Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword hit his physical body.

The 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' was almost unstoppable, and it was extremely difficult to break the defenses of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner when one was still at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

Even though Li Yuanba possessed a Fourth Grade Top Quality Lifebound Flying Sword Xingyi, it was still true, but with the combination of Fourth Grade Top Xingyi Sword and 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent', it was different. The Fourth Grade Top Quality of Xingyi Sword allowed the 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' to exert its strongest effect.

The Fourth Grade Xingyi Sword pierced into the physical body of the second of Ping's Three Evil, with 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' in the front and 'Supreme Yang Sword Intent' following, destroying the vitality of the second's physical body.

The second's Nascent Soul flew out from the top of his head, wisely abandoning his physical body.

Li Yuanba felt helpless, reflecting the gap between him and Tang Xue Ning.

Even though Tang Xue Ning's Sword Intent wasn't as strong as his 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent', Tang Xue Ning's level, as a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator, allowed her to completely annihilate both the physical body and the Nascent Soul of a practitioner of the same level.

But although Li Yuanba also killed the physical body of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner, he couldn't simultaneously annihilate the Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner.

Fortunately, Tang Xue Ning's Lifebound Flying Sword arrived promptly, instantly freezing the Nascent Soul of the second of Ping's Three Evil.

The boss of Ping's Three Evil, with two younger brothers blocking the way, managed to get a breather and activated a talisman which turned into a spiritual light.

As the spiritual light flickered, it enveloped his body and transformed it into a grand light, escaping toward the outside of the cave mansion.

Tang Xue Ning and Li Yuanba's Lifebound Flying Swords were a step too late, slashing empty air.

"Pursue!" Tang Xue Ning said in a deep voice.

Her body turned into a sword light, chasing after the boss of Ping's Three Evil. As she pursued, she also collected the spoils of the second and third of Ping's Three Evil.

It was clear that she was definitely experienced in battlefield cleanup; collecting spoils didn't affect her Sword Escape speed.

Li Yuanba activated 'In the Blink of an Eye', and his figure flickered out of the cave mansion.

But he didn't plan to pursue the boss of Ping's Three Evil alone. He was merely at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, and while he could handle ambushes, he couldn't fight directly. Without someone to help him withstand the suppressed level of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage, it would be difficult for him to fight freely in front of a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioner.

In battles of this level, even the slightest delay could mean the difference between life and death.

"Hmph!" A cold snort echoed within the grand light.

Following the cold snort, there was a nearly invisible beam of light shooting toward Li Yuanba.

Li Yuanba had just appeared from the 'In the Blink of an Eye' space movement when he saw the light shooting towards him.

Tang Xue Ning was taken aback, sensing danger. The strongest point of Ping's Three Evil was long-range archery attacks, a rare but sharp attack method in the Cultivation World.

In terms of the attacking power of treasure-level bows and arrows, it was no less than the power of a Sword Cultivator's Lifebound Flying Sword.

The arrows fired from the bow sacrificed flexibility, limited to straight-line attacks, but it gathered the energy of a treasure-level bow, resembling the Power Storage Secret Method in some ways.

Li Yuanba sensed the killing intent upon him. The boss of Ping's Three Evil's attack far exceeded the normal range of a cultivator.

The normal attack range for cultivators is the range of their Divine Sense, just like Li Yuanba's Lifebound Flying Sword could only attack under the control of his Divine Sense.

However, the attack distance of a treasure-level bow could achieve true long-range attacks, maintaining strong attacking power beyond the range of Divine Sense.

Of course, this attack distance had limitations. On one hand, the power burst of the treasure bow is limited, and on the other, if the distance is too far, cultivators can easily dodge straight-line attacks, rendering the attack ineffective.

At this moment, Li Yuanba had no time to perform a second 'In the Blink of an Eye' to dodge. The boss of Ping's Three Evil had made this move deliberately.

The boss of Ping's Three Evil couldn't do anything against Tang Xue Ning, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Sword Cultivator, but he could accurately attack Li Yuanba, at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

Tang Xue Ning was too late to save Li Yuanba; the speed of her Lifebound Flying Sword reaching him was far less than the speed of the arrow.

Li Yuanba watched as the arrow flew toward him, within five meters of him.

His "Invisible Primordial Magnetism" Divine Skill had been maintained. This silent and invisible, formless and intangible skill, once condensed to a five-meter range, almost merged with his spiritual power shield, without other cultivators noticing.

The arrow entered within five meters, into the 'Invisible Primordial Magnetism', as if entangled by countless invisible threads.

The arrow's kinetic energy was strong, but it abruptly slowed within this 'Invisible Primordial Magnetism'.

Since the 'Invisible Primordial Magnetism' range was only five meters, the arrow's slowing felt as though blocked by Li Yuanba's protective spiritual power.

Li Yuanba's eyes remained in the "Divine Vision" mode. At this critical moment, "Divine Vision" allowed him to see every part of the arrow clearly.

A Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation appeared in his right hand, and he applied the power of his "Sword Body" to it, also infusing it with 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' and 'Supreme Yang Sword Intent.'

The 'Phantom-Breaking Sword Intent' cleaved through the arrow, and 'Supreme Yang Sword Intent' launched a second attack immediately after.

Seeing Li Yuanba perform even better in this situation, Tang Xue Ning was taken aback. Her Lifebound Flying Sword couldn't reach him in time, nor could she have done better herself.

However, now was not the time to dwell on these things, so she refocused her attention on the fleeing boss of Ping's Three Evil.

When the boss of Ping's Three Evil used his life-saving talisman to escape, he used a long-range treasure bow to attack Li Yuanba.

Using remote magical artifact bow attacks, he calculated his striking range accurately.

Activating the talisman broke the Escape Skill, causing the skill to be interrupted.
