Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy executed [Moonlight Flickering Dance Step] plus [Wind Burst Step] at full speed to get away from the Demonized General.

Her speed was so fast that she even left several blurry afterimages, but the Demonized General moved even faster than her!

Without giving Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy a chance to react, the Demonized General suddenly appeared right above Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and swung his sword downward!

“Urgh… [Wings of Freedom]!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy could feel overwhelming pressure pressing her, like a mountain, before Demonized General’s black sword even reached her, so she hastily activated [Wings of Freedom] without any hesitation!

BOOOOOOM—!

The perfect copy’s speed increased many times, thanks to the [Wings of Freedom] buff that she seemed to disappear all of a sudden from Demonized General’s vision!

Demonized General’s sword failed to hit Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and struck the ground heavily instead.

It created a huge crater as if a meteor was falling.

“This damn general! Does he not care anymore about these city ruins?! He clearly wants to flatten me along with these city ruins!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy complained angrily.

Lu Xingchen rushed to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy while saying in a solemn manner: “Let’s get away from here quickly! That undead general seems like he does not want to hurt me. As long as I act as your shield, that undead general should not be able to hurt you.”

“What?! No—! That is too dangerous for you.” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy replied in a reluctant tone.

If she were the real Tang Li Xue, then she would definitely not reject Lu Xingchen’s offer to act as her shield, but she was only a perfect copy created by the [Twin Moons] divine ability.

Even if she were killed or died here, she could be summoned by the real Tang Li Xue again after the cooldown of the [Twin Moons] was over later.

Not to mention that she could actually get out of this place very easily, as long as her real self re-summoned her back to the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].

But if Lu Xingchen were killed by the Demonized General, he would truly die for real!

Lu Xingchen thought Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy was genuinely worried about him, which made him feel touched.

He smiled gently at Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and said in a reassuring tone: “You do not need to worry about me. That undead general will not kill me. But you are different… That undead general clearly wants to kill you.”

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy gritted her pearl-white teeth as she decided to accept Lu Xingchen’s kindness.

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy mobilized her [Energy Manipulation] to condense a white sword.

She also infused the white sword with her Golden Sun Flame, [Sharp Edge Power], [Spirit Shock], and Profound Law of Earth!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy actually also wanted to infuse the power of space, but unfortunately, it almost made the process go out of control, so she decided not to do it.

“Catch it!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy threw the white sword she made with [Energy Manipulation] and infused with five kinds of her powers to Lu Xingchen!

Lu Xingchen hastily caught the sword and admired it for a moment.

“Good sword—! Thank you very much, Junior Sister Li!” Lu Xingchen thanked Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy with a gentle doting smile on his handsome face.

Right at this time, the Demonized General dashed past Lu Xingchen and thrust his black sword swiftly toward Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy!

“Stop there—!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy used [Mystic Whisper] combined with the Profound Law of Earth to halt the Demonized General’s sword attack!

However, the Demonized General’s black sword only halted for a few milliseconds before it continued to thrust toward the perfect copy’s throat!

CLANG—!

Right at this time, Lu Xingchen suddenly slashed the Demonized General’s knees with the white sword given by Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy!

Lu Xingchen’s slash failed to leave any damage on the Demonized General, but it made his body tilt to the left side, which made his sword thrust miss by a hair’s breadth and grazed the perfect copy’s smooth right cheek instead!

Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy gasped in fright as she felt death was actually so close to her just now.

Of course, she actually still had one last [Sun And Moon Aegis] deadly blow protection, so even if Demonized General successfully cut her neck with his sword just now, she should not be killed yet.

’Damn it! That really scares me to death! Help~! My real self, quickly take me out of here! Summon me back right now!’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy frantically sent SOS signals to her real self.

…..

The real Tang Li Xue, who was still busily refining the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] in the Water Floor of [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], suddenly stopped her meditation and opened her topaz blue eyes.

“This annoying perfect copy is really restless.” Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly.

She could not even calmly focus on refining the energy from the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb].

Profound Laws: Shadow (0.3% –> 0.5%), …

The progress of her Profound Law of Shadow only improved by 0.2%.

After all, her perfect copy had only left the pagoda for a few hours, according to the time outside.

Even though it was equal to one or two days to the time inside the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], but Tang Li Xue was really unable to fully focus on refining the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] because her perfect copy always fell into mishaps.

And now, her perfect copy even kept shouting to ask for her help, but her perfect copy totally forgot that Little Loki was still missing, so her perfect copy had to find Little Loki first before she could summon her back to the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].

What if that Demonized General was targeting Little Loki instead after she summoned her perfect copy back?!

It was all right to lose her perfect copy since her [Twin Moons] divine ability would only enter cooldown for a few days, but it would be bad if Little Loki was targeted by that extremely powerful Demonized General and fell into danger.

Anyway, their situation was actually not that bad right now, with Lu Xingchen acting as the shield for her perfect copy.

At least they should have been able to hold out for a while longer.

“Oh, well… Let’s put away this [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] and focus on doing something else first.” Tang Li Xue murmured as she stored the [Mystic Shadow Lotus Spirit Orb] back into her space pouch.

The [Wrathful Hero Spirit] name of the Demonized General actually made Tang Li Xue think about a really great idea.

She took out the [Sword Spirit Embryo] from Lu Xingchen’s spatial ring.

CLANG—! WEEEEEENG—!

The loud sound of the sword chant suddenly echoed through the Water Floor as a finger-sized sword flew out from Tang Li Xue’s forehead and floated on the top of her palm!

Yes, this finger-sized sword was actually the [Soul Slaying Sword]!

The [Soul Slaying Sword] had grown many times stronger compared to the first time Tang Li Xue obtained it after it was continuously nurtured by Tang Li Xue’s soul and spirit inside her consciousness.

It was still one of Tang Li Xue’s strongest trump cards until this point.

But now, Tang Li Xue planned to strengthen her [Soul Slaying Sword] even more with [Sword Spirit Embryo]!

Tang Li Xue had secretly observed their battle through her perfect copy’s memories and realized that any physical attack seemed not to have any effect on that Demonized General.

Lu Xingchen’s sword slash managed to have some effect and tilt the Demonized General because his sword, which was made from [Energy Manipulation], had the power of the [Spirit Shock]!

[Spirit Shock] was a form of the soul-based attack, so the soul-based attack was actually effective against that demonized general?!

That demonized general’s name was the [Wrathful Hero Spirit], so it made sense that the soul-based attack worked really well on him, right?

The [Spirit Shock] barely had any effect on the demonized general because it was too weak, but how about her [Soul Slaying Sword]?

Then what if she could enhance the power of her [Soul Slaying Sword] even further?

Does it mean she could seriously injure or even slay that demonized general?

Tang Li Xue thought that her idea should be very feasible!

Tang Li Xue stopped hesitating and began to merge the [Sword Spirit Embryo] with her [Soul Slaying Sword]!

The process was actually much smoother than she had expected.

It seemed as if her [Soul Slaying Sword] understood Tang Li Xue’s will and voluntarily refined the [Sword Spirit Embryo].

The [Sword Spirit Embryo] looked as if it had melted and merged with the [Soul Slaying Sword], while the [Soul Slaying Sword]’s aura grew stronger and stronger rapidly.

After the [Sword Spirit Embryo] completely blended with the [Soul Slaying Sword], countless mysterious golden runes emerged and enveloped the [Soul Slaying Sword], like a bright golden cocoon!

“What the heck is this?!” Tang Li Xue herself never expected that something like this would happen.

But she could sense that her [Soul Slaying Sword] was undergoing earth-shaking transformation and evolution!

Then Tang Li Xue realized that something even more shocking actually happened.

“This… the [Soul Slaying Sword] actually sends its thought to me?! No, it can think now?!” Tang Li Xue exclaimed in shock and disbelief.

In short, the [Soul Slaying Sword] wanted Tang Li Xue to bring it to the Lightning Floor and let it be baptized in the thunder practice area!
