“Are we really the vanguards?” Tang Tian’s face was ugly.
Crane turned, and asked in surprise: “Don’t tell me you don’t wish to rush to the front first?”
:But…. Aren’t all vanguards minor characters?” Tang Tian’s face was unhappy, he waved both of his arms, making loud and enthusiastic actions, shouting: “This godlike young lad, should appear on the pressurizing battlefield like a hero, that way I will look even more heroic.”
Ling Xu turned with a loathful look, and spat out a word: “Trash!”
Crane exposed an attractive smile: “Please do not overestimate your position, otherwise you will bring about unnecessary trouble for the rest.”
Crane’s gaze swept around, the surroundings of the Star Door were already razed, with not a single person alive. It was evident, Yan Yong Lie had already anticipated their attack, had cleared the area to be used as a battlefield.
If that was the case, that meant that Shao De was nearby….
Tang Tian spoke out unhappily: “Hey, the two of you need to have more backbone, this godlike young lad came to the world to become a hero! Oh….speaking of which, isn’t it weird, where is Shao De? How come we haven’t met him yet? We have already been in Ursa Major Constellation for three days! Is there such a blade saint, he is too irresponsible!”
“Your blade saint is coming.” Crane said indifferently, his gaze looking far out.
A figure, appeared in the horizon, the sunlight had stretched his shadow. He was approaching leisurely, his appearance calm, but his speed extremely fast. He was just a small dot, but in the blink of an eye he had already become bigger.
The three of them then saw Shao De’s appearance properly, he looked meager, dressed in blue robes, looking very refined. His entire being emitted a calm and indifferent aura. He looked like a teacher of a school, without any sharp aura, but filled like an educated man.
“I have made you three little brothers wait long.” Shao De greeted by raising his clasped hands, his words warm and affable, a way that made people have a good impression of him.
“Hello Uncle!” Tang Tian politely waved.
Crane bowed back with respect: “Younger generation Crane meets Elder Shao!”
Ling Xu squinted his eyes, without any intention to greet, his killing intent soared: “Which one of us will get to start first?”
“Little brother is too anxious.” Shao De said with some interest as he smiled, sizing up Ling Xu, he nodded his head: “This should be Little Brother Ling Xu bah, rumors say Little Brother Ling inherited the Silver Frost Spear, to meet you today, you truly are extraordinary.”
Ling Xu was indifferent, raising his silver spear and pointing it straight at Shao De, he spoke: “What’s all the bullshit about, let’s just fight!”
“As expected of a young Silver Frost, fierce, brave and fearless.” Shao De laughed: “Then let this old one witness a bit of the Silver Frost Winds.”
He had not finished his sentence, his right arm had already bent, his palm formed a blade shaped, and casually slashed down.
Shao De’s slash, seemed to be one with nature, without any trace of Qi, even the smile on his face had not changed, he was extremely casual and relaxed. The slash, was filled with unspeakable beauty, and in that moment, Tang Tian and Crane were lost in their senses.
To Ling Xu, the slash was not beautiful at all, it was just a plain and simple slash, but it made him feel as if he could not dodge. Even the palm aura that was released, it was not sharp, but like the clear wind from the mountains, without any sense of danger.
Ling Xu’s expression changed, he long knew of the power of saint level martial artists, but recently his strength had surged exponentially, as Tang Tian was not the only one who received the benefits of Ursa Major Constellation. His strength had unknowingly reached another peak. He firmly believed, with his current strength, although he could not challenge a saint level martial expert, but he had the power to retaliate.
And when he faced against Shao De’s relaxed slash, he finally realized, the gap between him and a saint level, was not only the gap between True Power, but also on understanding martial techniques, they were both like heaven and earth.
Shao De’s slash made Ling Xu feel as if a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, the arrogance in his heart was entirely wiped.
Ling Xu, with his upright attitude, was initially panicking, but quickly calmed down.
Since I cannot dodge, I will not dodge!
Ling Xu’s orange pupils suddenly lit up with a blazing light aura, his figure on Flamingo suddenly crouched down, his back bent like a bow, like a fierce tiger about to pounce, the five fingers on his right hand holding the spear became relaxed as he gently twisted.
The silver spear dexterously released, like a silver snake unleashing out of its hole, it was as fast as lightning!
The spear tip dazzled with a bright light aura, the Sheep Horn Wind Bells that had absorbed the large amounts of star power and grew decorative designs on it, and the exquisite and complicated designs lit up with a faint silver light, bringing forth dim silver halos every time they moved, they flickered on and off.
“Good spear technique!”
Shao De’s eyes lit up as he could not hold back his compliment.
Seeing the spear aura from Ling Xu, his palm gentle trembled, causing a deep “weng” sound, as though a heavy hammer had appeared in the sky, the sound that could cause your hair to stand and skin to grow numb resonated out.
The clear and light palm blade that was released initially suddenly transformed into an extremely fierce and heavy slash technique!
There were no signs of the change, and in such a short time, the intense change caused Ling Xu’s face to become warped, he felt as if he was in a monstrous and difficult situation!
But at that moment, it was too late for him to do anything else.
Since it was so, then I will continue!
A crazed look surfaced on Ling Xu’s face, he was not a person who was quick on his feet and flexible, Shao De’s contrasting powerful slash, although it made Ling Xu feel queer, but he did not have the thought to alter his moves. He could not mimic Shao De’s casual changes.
The only thing he could do, was one.
Whatever changes there are, one spear to destroy them all!
“Kill!”
Roaring like a wild beast, his True Power surged up like lightning, the dazzling spear aura suddenly erupted even further, bringing along curling silver light halos, forming like a beautiful comet, clashing straight onto Shao De’s fearsome blade aura.
Dong!
The bassy sound swept out with a burst of air, sweeping everything around.
Flamingo and Ling Xu were like a firm nail, fiercely stuck into the sand. The powerful force caused the ground around him to instantly break into fine powder, as though a formless gigantic hand had struck from the sky.
Ling Xu’s five fingers were numb, his qi and blood were boiling in his body, his meridians had some signs of tearing.
Just a casual palm blade, could wound my meridians, is this a saint level….
So strong…..
“A persevering heart, you don’t doubt yourself! Good!”
Above him came Shao De’s compliments, the sand covered and blanketed the sky, preventing sunlight from piercing through, causing Ling Xu to be in shadows. He looked upwards, desperately trying to find Shao De’s figure.
His silver hair flew around, his orange pupils blazing with intent, and no fear.
He grasped onto Flamingo with his legs tightly, Flamingo had long bent its legs, fiercely releasing an astonishing amount of power, shooting forth like an arrow leaving the bow, with one leap it flew out into the sky, into the rain of sand.
Ling Xu’s spear came out like rain.
The silver rain exploded in the sky.
When the sand and dust touched the spear aura, they would all immediately shatter.
Shao De looked down, the countless ]silver auras beneath his feet condensed tightly like a huge sea approaching. He laughed, his palm straight with bent elbows, he slashed down again.
This palm blade, formed countless minute silver blade auras, under the sun, they sparkled with layers of light auras. Like countless silver fishes, they chased Shao De’s palm blade, and the countless blade auras, broke down the surrounding air, causing Shao De’s figure to become blurry.
Watching the strange clustered blade auras, fanaticism flashed past Ling Xu’s eyes.
Teacher, I have never forgotten – Justice Origin Core Pierce!
Little Xu’s heart, had never changed, but, it had become braver, and much more firm, and can cling on even more!
Teacher, please take a look at Little Xu’s improvements!
The sky full of spear auras, suddenly tore countless dazzling straight tears, rushing into Ling Xu’s spear tip.
The light auras came quickly, so fast that they disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The silver spear tip was transparent, around it was layers of silver halos.
The transparent spear tip seemed to be about to crash into the silver fish blade auras, when the silver lights of the Sheep Horn Wind Bells suddenly erupted, freezing the blade auras! The dangerous and densely packed blade auras all suddenly stopped momentarily.
Chi!
The transparent spear tip brought forth a smear of light aura that entered the frozen blade auras.
Shao De’s face exposed surprise, Ling Xu’s strength was more outstanding than he thought. He had not met a young man who could counterattack in two moves for a very long time.
He smiled, his blade aura accurately slashing onto Ling Xu’s spear tip.
There were no explosion, it was as light as the spring wind.
Ling Xu only felt his spear tip becoming extremely light, as though all of his power had dissipated into the air, it was so unbearable he almost spat out blood.
Damn it!
A blaze surged in Ling Xu’s heart, although he knew the opponent was a saint level, although he knew the opponent was far stronger than him, although he knew him falling was normal…
But….why did it feel like shit!
Is it even though the opponent is a saint, I will still feel unsatisfied….
Ling Xu tried to muster all of his strength, but Shao De seemed to know what he was thinking, the palm blade in his hand, gracefully released consecutive attacks, the scary accumulation of power in the spear tip, actually disappeared slowly! Shao De’s every movement was so clear, so natural, and his face still had a smile.
Ling Xu could only watch as the transparent spear tip slowly recovered its silver color, the light aura slowly dimming.
Shao De’s palm blade slowly slashed onto the spear tip, lightly without strength.
Pa!
Ling Xu’s hand became light, he lost control of the silver spear, transforming into a silver light, the sword was flung to the side.
He and Flamingo had lost their power, dropping down to the ground along with the sand in the sky.
Shao De’s face was a smile yet not a smile, but was extremely offending to Ling Xu, Shao De’s palm blade came down again.
The terrifying energy ripple came out from his palm blade, resonating outwards. The smile on Shao De’s face was gone, his expression solemn.
One slash downwards!
An unspeakable light blossomed in front of Ling Xu.
It was not a beautiful light aura, but filled with intense danger, every sense of Ling Xu was completely attracted to the blade, even the sky behind Shao De seemed to be split in two!
Am I going to die….
Suddenly, his front darkened, a agile black figure blocked his front.
Crane’s gaze was cold, the Crane Sword in his hand lit up with a gentle light aura.
In the air, without any support, Crane’s left leg retreated, both legs bending down, his stance crouched in a ready position, he pulled back his elbow, then pushing out his sword technique accurately!
Crane Sword erupted with a light aura, the essence of the sword light extended out, reflecting on Crane’s tranquil face.
