Chapter 237: Seven Stars Kill
The spectators never expected that the first match of the top ten would end in such a dramatic way.
Xiang Wuqing, the young master of Luohua Valley, actually admitted defeat!
This made the cultivators who looked down on Xiao Mian stunned, but many cultivators began to face up to Xiao Mian's strength and re-evaluate his future. As the saying goes, a bystander sees more clearly. There are naturally many experienced cultivators watching the match below the stage. Although they were also surprised that the first match started well but ended badly, after a little reflection, they realized that Xiao Mian and Xiang Wuqing on the stage both had outstanding qualities.
Xiang Wuqing's Shenmu Sword is needless to say. The Earth Dragon Sword plus the Shenmu Sword, two top-level magic weapon-level flying swords, plus the folding fan in his hand, three top-level magic weapons, ordinary top-level cultivators in the foundation-building period would be unlikely to be spared.
As for Xiao Mian, his wealth is even more shocking.
In the previous duels, Xiao Mian only exposed the existence of the Golden Tooth Sword in the battle with Jing Chu, and therefore most of the cultivators did not know that Xiao Mian also had two top-level magic flying swords, the Fire Tail Sword and the Earth Claw Sword.
In this way, if Xiao Mian's most commonly used Black Edge Sword is added, then he has four top-level magic flying swords, which is enough to make the eyes of those poor and scared casual cultivators in the audience shine and be extremely vicious.
More importantly, Xiao Mian is only a high-level foundation-building cultivator, but he can control four flying swords at the same time. This not only shows that Xiao Mian's true energy is huge and almost comparable to that of a top-level cultivator in the foundation-building period, but also shows that Xiao Mian has cultivated four divine thoughts!
If the audience in the audience knew that Xiao Mian had actually cultivated seven divine thoughts, and that he had not four, but six top-level magic flying swords, they would probably shout even more, but even so, it was enough to shock them.
The reason why Xiang Wuqing took the initiative to admit defeat was that in the moment when he was entangled by the Xuanfeng Sword, Xiao Mian's three flying swords were enough to severely damage the Shenmu Sword.
If Xiao Mian had not shown mercy, perhaps this Shenmu Sword that could become a magic weapon in the future would have been damaged. If the Shenmu Sword was damaged, it would inevitably affect the possibility of upgrading to a magic weapon in the future. Perhaps Xiang Wuqing would never have a chance to become a magic weapon or a flying sword in his life.
It was precisely because of this concern that Xiang Wuqing decisively admitted defeat and gave up the game.
"Huh..., Brother Xiao is really ruthless!" After admitting defeat, Xiang Wuqing quickly recalled his Shenmu Sword. Seeing that there were already several sword marks on the sword body, Xiang Wuqing was heartbroken and looked at Xiao Mian with a rather unfriendly look. Xiao Mian touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "It seems that Brother Xiang has not yet mastered the art of the magic sword. If not, how could Xiao win so easily?"
"Ha! It's my fault?"
"Who told you to rush to show off the magic sword before you master it? This is only because you meet an honest person like me. If it were someone else, such as Lu Chengzhi..." Xiao Mian glanced at Lu Chengzhi casually, and sure enough, he saw that the other party was staring at him straight. Xiao Mian grinned, and then reminded Xiang Wuqing: "That kid hates you as much as he hates me. I advise you not to use the sacred wood sword against him!"
"I know! Both of you are not easy to deal with!"
Having said that, Xiang Wuqing still lost the first duel, but the scene of him and Xiao Mian chatting and laughing made the audience quite unresponsive.
It seems that these two brothers have known each other for a long time! ?
In a moment, Xiao Mian and Xiang Wuqing left the stage. Since only Xiang Wuqing from Luohua Valley was shortlisted, Xiao Mian waved to Huangfu Ling, and the three of them simply stood together.
This caused many interested people to talk about it again, and the expressions of Wan Dongyao, Lu Chengzhi and Hu Ying from the Demon Shadow Sect seemed a little strange.
Three against three, this time there will be a good show!
The second duel was between Bai Zhenzhen from Wan Zongyuan and Hu Ying from the Demon Shadow Sect.
Both of them were at the top level of the foundation-building period, and they had flying swords or magic weapons of the top level of magic weapons. They were also elite disciples of major forces, and they were evenly matched.
As a sword cultivator, Hu Ying's silver sword was extremely fast, but his path did not seem to be consistent with the purpose of the Demon Shadow Sect to enter the Tao through shadows.
After Xiao Mian thought about it carefully, he suddenly remembered that Hu Da, Hu Ying's father, didn't seem to use shadows to enter the Dao, but a small sword with a green light. Obviously, the methods they practiced were not the orthodox methods of the Demon Shadow Sect.
But this does not mean that their strength is not strong. At least among the four golden elixirs who attacked the Five Elements Sect, Hu Da's strength was the strongest. It was precisely because of this that he was specially taken care of by Dan Qiusheng and finally severely injured the golden elixir.
Xiao Mian naturally didn't know that Hu Da and Hu Ying practiced the "Light Sword Art" of the Demon Shadow Sect, which was a secret technique that was completely opposite to the Shadow Dao.
In fact, to be more specific, Hu Ying and Bai Zhenzhen both came from the Binghuo Arena with Xiao Mian, but they had never fought each other, because according to the rules of the elimination match, if the three people fought in advance, someone would inevitably be eliminated in advance. Obviously, this was what the organizers of the Sword Fighting Association and the major forces did not want to see, so there were so many young talents with outstanding combat power gathered in the final top ten battles to stage a battle of dragons and tigers.
Hu Ying obviously knew that the seemingly frail Bai Zhenzhen was not easy to deal with, so he used the "Hua Guang Sword Technique". Silver light flashed, and needle-like silver sword energy shot out from the silver sword and attacked Bai Zhenzhen.
Bai Zhenzhen was not someone to be trifled with. She pulled her right hand out of her sleeves, exposing her arm, which looked like white jade lotus roots, to the public for the first time. However, Bai Zhenzhen's wrist was covered with an emerald green ring with nine triangular protrusions. As Bai Zhenzhen waved her arm, each of the nine protrusions emitted a nearly transparent Qi force, which rushed towards the large handful of silver flying lights emitted by Hu Ying.
Xiao Mian suddenly realized that this was the transparent Qi force that Bai Zhenzhen had used to defeat various opponents. It was indeed a top-level wind-attribute attacking magic weapon!
Although Bai Zhenzhen had emitted nine Qi forces, it was insignificant compared to the hundreds of silver lights emitted by Hu Ying. Therefore, Bai Zhenzhen's arms kept waving, and the ring on her wrist kept emitting transparent Qi force.
Silver light and transparent energy burst continuously in mid-air, and the entire ring was filled with explosive whirlwinds and chaotic airflows.
"Senior Sister, how does the invisible Qi released by Bai Zhenzhen's magic weapon compare to your wind blade?" Xiao Mian asked Huangfu Ling nonchalantly, not caring that Xiang Wuqing was beside him. Huangfu Ling was stunned when she heard it, and then replied: "In terms of power alone, it should not be as good as my wind blade, and my wind blade can be inhabited by divine thoughts, and can be micro-controlled after it is released, but her Qi is not good. But if we really fight, she has an innate advantage that I can't match."
"Senior Sister Huangfu is talking about the convenience of the magic weapon? Yes! Her attack seems fierce, but in fact, she only uses the spiritual energy stored in the circular magic weapon in advance, and the consumption of her own spiritual energy is negligible; on the other hand, Hu Ying of the Demon Shadow Sect uses his own spiritual energy. In the long run..."
"Hu Ying will not be so unwise!"
Xiao Mian's words interrupted Xiang Wuqing's speculation, but for a moment, Xiao Mian could not detect where Hu Ying's move was, and he couldn't help but watch more carefully.
"Look at the silver light that was shattered by Bai Zhenzhen. It seems that it has not disappeared!"
The first person to notice the weirdness was Huangfu Ling.
Xiao Mian was stunned when he heard this. His eyes quickly swept across the entire ring. Sure enough, he saw that the ring was covered with silver light fragments that were shattered by Bai Zhenzhen's Qi. They were shining in the sun, but they did not disappear.
This means that the spiritual energy inside it is extremely stable, which means that Hu Ying did it on purpose.
Suddenly, Xiao Mian glanced at Huangfu Ling. He understood why Huangfu Ling was the first to notice the weirdness, because Hu Ying's approach was quite similar to Huangfu Ling's "hundreds of twists and turns".
It is obvious that Hu Ying deliberately let Bai Zhenzhen shatter those silver lights. As for the purpose, it was naturally to defeat Bai Zhenzhen.
Sure enough, in the next moment, just before Bai Zhenzhen realized that something was wrong and was about to respond, Hu Ying's thin lips hooked and his open right hand clenched tightly.
In an instant, all the silver fragments scattered around the ring trembled, and then flew in the air like spiritual spirits.
Bai Zhenzhen's face changed slightly, but the distribution range of those silver fragments was too wide, so she had no way to hide standing in the middle of the ring.
After calming down a little, Bai Zhenzhen decided to wait and see what happened. She wanted to see what tricks Hu Ying could play.
Soon, seven silver-shining spiritual flying swords appeared around Bai Zhenzhen, trapping Bai Zhenzhen in them.
"Seven Star Kill!"
With Hu Ying's shout, seven starlights suddenly flew over the ring and poured into the seven silver flying swords.
