Chapter 82 Breakthrough

Mingcheng raised his head with great difficulty. He stared at Nanxiao with a pair of dark eyes and asked through gritted teeth, "What did you do to me?"

Why, as soon as he left the City Lord's Mansion, did his internal organs begin to feel a burning pain, a nausea that made him feel worse than death? The further he walked, the worse it became. He had no choice but to return here, and the pain was indeed much less severe.

Thinking of what Nan Xiao said during the day, 'Don't leave the City Lord's Mansion', she must know the reason, or she must have done it.

Nan Xiao chuckled softly, then squatted in front of him, picked up a dead branch at his feet, and poked him. Her eyes were clear and bright, revealing a hint of smile and innocence. She said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

She paused, her face full of joy, and changed the subject, saying happily, "But you've come just in time. Let's find an open space so you can try out my new weapon."

If she tried here and accidentally blew up the City Lord's Mansion, she was not sure whether Second Senior Sister would punish her.

Thinking about it this way, Nan Xiao still felt that he was too kind. He would rather bring disaster to the sect than harm his second senior sister.

After saying that, she placed the cannon in front of Mingcheng and urged him, "Get up quickly."

Mingcheng: ""

This ugly thing looks somewhat familiar.

The pain in his body gradually subsided. Mingcheng supported himself with his arms and sat up. He straightened his messy hair and refused decisively: "No."

Nan Xiao frowned, his eyes darkened, and he slapped Ming Cheng on the head. He said with a half-smile, "What qualifications do you have to refuse?"

After saying that, she grabbed Mingcheng's ponytail and pulled him up.

Mingcheng was more than half a head taller than Nanxiao. With his hair in Nanxiao's hand, he couldn't help but bend down, his whole posture looking extremely awkward. He kept mumbling, "Hey, hey, hey, let go, Nanxiao, let go of my hair."

"I'll go, I'll go, okay? Quickly let go."

“...........”

Mingcheng kept yelling, but Nan Xiao ignored him. She only let go of his hair after dragging him to an open space behind the City Lord's Mansion.

Nan Xiao raised the cannon and pointed it at Mingcheng. After looking at this thing for a long time, he actually found it quite pleasing to the eye.

"Yes."

Nan Xiao pulled the trigger without hesitation. With a bang, a fist-sized ball of spiritual energy shot out like lightning. Ming Cheng reacted incredibly quickly, deftly dodging it with a graceful backflip. The ball of spiritual energy instantly struck the open space behind him, creating a massive crater with a resounding boom and a cloud of dust.

"Mingcheng, don't hide, try to take my attack." Nan Xiao said with a slightly frown.

If she wanted to blow up the open space, she would have done it herself, why would she bother asking someone else to try.

She was currently at the initial stage of foundation building, and any sword cultivator of the same level could easily defeat her. Therefore, she needed to refine more magical instruments to improve her ability to protect herself.

Mingcheng is now in the early stage of Jindan and is fully capable of taking Nan Xiao's attack.

Nan Xiao also wanted to know how much his attack power could be increased by emitting his spiritual power through the addition of magic weapons.

When facing someone with higher cultivation than oneself, can one cause harm?

"If you tell me not to hide, I won't hide. I won't." Mingcheng was rebellious.

After saying this, he raised his chin towards Nan Xiao provocatively.

It seems to be saying, if you have the guts, hit him.

Nan Xiao's lips curled up slowly, a smile on her face that seemed to be there but not there, and she slowly said, "Okay."

Mingcheng: “…………”

I have a bad feeling.

Mingcheng felt uneasy when he saw Nan Xiao's eyes.

He was just about to say, why not try it for her, why should a grown man like him bother with a girl.

He hadn't spoken yet.

Nan Xiao slid a small mechanism on the magic weapon in his hand and started firing countless spiritual energy balls at him.

Mingcheng's eyes widened instantly, his face full of astonishment, and he couldn't help but swear: "Fuck!"

Dense spheres of spiritual energy shot towards him like a rainstorm, each one moving at an astonishing speed. Mingcheng tried his best to dodge, his figure moving erratically like a ghost. However, under the dense attack of the spiritual energy spheres, he was unfortunately hit by two.

The moment the spiritual energy ball touched his body, it suddenly exploded like a firework. The powerful impact caused his body to tremble, his clothes torn, revealing his white and flat belly.

Mingcheng looked down at his battle-damaged robes. His eyes widened, pupils shrank, and he was filled with astonishment.

This robe has a built-in defensive effect. It has been with him throughout the years, blocking countless injuries for him. Now, it has been blown away by a Foundation Establishment cultivator...

Nan Xiao didn't care about that. It was his own request, and she was just satisfying him.

This thing spewed out so many spiritual energy balls at once, which consumed a lot of spiritual energy. In just a few breaths, all the spiritual energy in her body was drained away.

Nan Xiao directly took out a bottle of spiritual energy pills, tilted his head back, and poured it into his mouth as if it were free. The depleted spiritual energy in his body was instantly replenished. He set up the small cannon and fired another burst of gunfire...

Seeing this, Mingcheng quickly shouted, "Hey, hey, hey, that's enough."

"Come again..."

He didn't even have time to feel sorry for his damaged robe before a new round of spiritual energy balls came and he had to start a new round of dodging.

This time he did not dare to be careless at all, and thought to himself: If I get hit by the explosion, my skin will be torn to pieces.

Mingcheng dodged while shouting at Nanxiao: "If you do this again, I will fight back."

“I really fought back…”

In fact, Nan Xiao did not intend to torment him, but she realized that after exhausting the spiritual power in her body and then replenishing it again, she seemed to have the signs of a breakthrough after repeating this process.

This kind of opportunity doesn't always come around, so we have to seize it. It's just a pity for Mingcheng.

Time passed slowly, Mingcheng was exhausted and panting, while Nanxiao's spirits were getting more and more excited.

"I'm not coming anymore, I really am not coming anymore..." Mingcheng lay down on the spot and let things take their course.

Just blow him up.

Nan Xiao felt the spiritual energy within her body stirring, as if it was about to burst out. She put down the cannon in her hand, sat cross-legged on the ground, and the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth gathered around her...

Ming Cheng sat up after seeing this scene. He took a breath and muttered, "Good fellow, no wonder he's so fierce, it turns out he's about to break through."

"You dare to break through in this situation. I don't know if you trust me too much, or if you are really too bold..."

If we interrupt her breakthrough at this moment, at best her cultivation will regress, at worst her meridians will be severed and her foundation will be completely destroyed...

There were two little figures arguing above Mingcheng's head.

Xiao Hei said that since she treated you like this, this is a good time for revenge.

Another newbie said, taking advantage of someone's misfortune is not what a gentleman does...

Xiao Hei said: We are demons, not gentlemen, and we don't care about morality...

Xiaobai retorted: A gentleman's virtue has nothing to do with race...

This quarrel between the black and white gave Mingcheng a headache...
