Chapter 67: One sword strikes, one sword cuts through the mist in the abyss of the Demon Sea...
In the abyss of the Demonic Sea, water vapor is rising and lavender clouds are swirling. If it weren't for the demonic energy that is pervasive and pervasive, one would have thought it was some kind of paradise on earth or the sacred land of Yaochi.
As soon as she entered, she felt a strange and cold aura invading her body all the time.
Fortunately, the Golden Lotus hanging around her neck emitted a soft and warm golden light, wrapping her in it and dispelling the purple mist around her.
But this is not a long-term solution. In this gray and gloomy place where monsters gather, the dazzling golden light appears. Isn't it a sitting duck?
She couldn't help but look at Wei Mubai and Lechen, and was blinded by their outrageous actions. She was completely speechless.
Lechen's entire body was emitting dazzling golden light, as if the sun was shining on the earth. His presence could be detected even through the heavy clouds and fog, and he even dispelled all the fog around him, creating a vacuum zone.
But doing so would mean continuously consuming spiritual energy, and not just a little bit at a time.
Xu Hui couldn't help but ask herself, "Is this really okay?"
Won’t you become the target of public criticism?
We know that he came here to save the devil, but there is no need for him to be so high-profile. It is simply a declaration of war: Come to me if you are not afraid of death!
The demons and monsters are not human cultivators, so they are really... not afraid of death!
In other words, their daily routine is killing and devouring, and this golden light of merit is both their nemesis and their best nourishment.
There is no doubt that any monster that notices this will rush here without hesitation and swarm over.
This is as bizarre as Tang Monk holding a big loudspeaker and shouting to all the monsters in the sky and on the ground, inviting everyone to taste Tang Monk's meat together.
Wei Mubai glanced at him calmly and said, "This is why he came to see me."
"Oh, ah?" Xu Hui was puzzled.
"He thought it was too slow to search one by one, so he simply attracted all the demons and monsters to him continuously, but he couldn't handle it!" Wei Mubai said lightly.
"So... we are here to be his thugs?" Xu Hui said uncertainly.
She looked Wei Mubai up and down. No wonder they dared to play like this. It turned out that the ethereal root had such benefits!
For others, demonic energy is poison and consumes spiritual power, but the empty spiritual root can transform demonic energy into spiritual power and continuously supply itself.
In such an environment, Wei Mubai was not worried about the problem of insufficient spiritual power, so they dared to play like this!
Does this mean that the Yin energy and demonic energy have no effect on Wei Mubai?
Wait, she thought of another terrifying fact, "If you want, can you transform the spiritual energy in your body into any kind of power, such as demonic energy or demonic energy?"
And Wei Mubai may not be a human cultivator or an orthodox cultivator, he could also be an evil cultivator, or even a demon cultivator?
Isn't this... a bit too outrageous?
Shocked!
Xu Hui was extremely shocked by her own imagination!
"Otherwise, how could I dare to be so reckless?" Liaochen waved his sleeves, smiled and sat down cross-legged, with Buddhist beads in one hand and a wooden fish in the other. "My safety is in your hands."
After saying this, he calmly closed his eyes and muttered something. The Shurangama Mantra transformed into golden Buddhist characters, which spread out in circles. Wherever they reached, there were fine and dense Sanskrit sounds, which seemed to come from a distant Buddhist country, yet seemed to be right next to the ear, cleansing people's souls.
Xu Hui couldn't help but look at Wei Mubai, so, let's start fighting?
Wei Mubai swung out a magic sword, drew 124 formations on it, and installed magic stones at 36 nodes.
"Wait a moment and eliminate all the monsters. The demons can spare one life depending on the situation. If you don't have enough spiritual power, go in and meditate and rest. When fighting, try not to use spiritual power, but sword energy."
Xu Hui was stunned and looked towards the magic circle. "Thirty-six high-grade spirit stones are not enough, right?"
She absorbed the spiritual power twice and it was gone. Does that mean she has to exchange the spiritual stones every time? That would be such a waste.
If you can't get replenishment from the outside world, you can only rely on spiritual stones, spiritual pills, and spiritual plants.
Although they are not short of these, it is obvious that they will not leave here in the short term. Continuous fighting requires continuous consumption of spiritual power.
She couldn't help but probe her spiritual consciousness into the space bracelet. One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones seemed like a lot, but she couldn't withstand such consumption!
Wei Mubai explained, "The spirit stone supports the array, and the spiritual power inside is transformed from demonic energy."
Xu Hui's eyes widened. "Is there such a formation?"
I have never heard of it. If it existed, the Abyss of the Demon Sea would not be known as one of the ten most dangerous places for human cultivators!
Moreover, if there is a formation that can transform demonic energy into spiritual energy, there must also be a formation that can transform spiritual power into demonic energy. Wouldn't the world be in chaos then?
By then, humans, demons, monsters, and spirits will be able to freely travel through various realms to plunder resources, and war is imminent!
Wei Mubai patted her forehead lightly, "You worry too much. This formation relies on my spiritual consciousness and cultivation to set up and operate."
"Oh," Xu Hui was relieved. All she needed was the ethereal root and a strong spiritual consciousness, that would be all!
In the entire world of cultivation, Wei Mubai is the only oddball who possesses the so-called ethereal roots.
Before him, the ethereal root was just a concept that no one had ever possessed. When it actually appeared, the Wei family was surprised for a long time.
I don’t know how to cultivate a genius with this kind of spiritual root attributes?
However, the fact is that geniuses do not need to be cultivated. They can understand things on their own and even create their own skills.
Sometimes talent is just so unreasonable!
"Okay! Don't be distracted!" As soon as the words fell, Wei Mubai swept his sword horizontally, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment, without a trace of wind.
However, a sword energy that was difficult to discern with the naked eye spread out like ripples. Wherever it passed, the monsters were wiped out as if by an invisible hand. Without even a scream, they turned into nothingness. Only a dead silence and faint fluctuations of spiritual energy remained around.
Only a dark purple monster in the early stage of foundation building was deliberately left behind and ran to Xu Hui.
She quickly drew out her magic sword, which was a slender and sharp green sword with a faint green light flowing on the sword body. It was obviously a magical weapon that had been specially refined.
Xu Hui had practiced the "Qiankun Sword Art" with it countless times and had already formed a tacit understanding with it. Without using spiritual power, he could cause great damage just by relying on the sword's momentum.
Xu Hui knew the purpose of Wei Mubai bringing her here. One was to temper her will and murderous aura, and the other was to cultivate her sword intent.
The highest realm of sword cultivation is to be invincible with just the sword without using any spiritual power.
Xu Hui is not a sword cultivator, but Wei Mubai sees the potential of becoming a sword cultivator in her.
In that case, why not give it a try?
The world of cultivation is full of crises, and many dangerous situations may restrict spiritual power, so cultivators must learn various life-saving methods. Body training, alchemy, weapon refining, talismans, and formations are just one of them.
Sword cultivators are also the most powerful among human cultivators. With just a sword, they can go to heaven and earth and do anything.
Previously, Wei Mubai thought that with Xu Hui's physical fitness, it would be extremely difficult for her to become a swordsman.
However, surprisingly, although her comprehension was not high, she was inexplicably compatible with the "Qiankun Sword Art" and could always understand it easily, which was much easier than her understanding of the martial arts.
This gave her a slight chance of becoming a swordsman!
But Wei Mubai never thought of asking her to change to sword training. As he said, she was born with ordinary physical fitness, and with the blessing of affinity with plants, she was more suitable for practicing the "Three Lives and All Things" of the natural way.
With him around, lack of understanding is not a big problem. He can help her understand.
But since there is an opportunity, kendo cannot be neglected, after all, it is a powerful means of self-protection.
Xu Hui understood what he meant, and she also felt that it was quite satisfying to kill the enemy with one swing of the sword. She liked this kind of fighting style that could break all obstacles with one force. It was... simple, rough and effective.
She likes it!
"Come on, let me see what you can do as a monster!"
Xu Hui let out a low roar, and moved slightly, moving across the battlefield like a dragon, avoiding the aftermath that was still raging around him, and heading straight for the deep purple monster.
The monster roared and opened its bloody mouth. A black demonic energy gushed out of its mouth, transforming into several sharp demonic blades, which attacked her with a whistling sound that tore through the air.
Xu Hui's body was flexible, and she danced with the Qingfeng sword tightly. Every time the tip of the sword tapped, she accurately defeated the demonic blade. At the same time, she used the momentum of the sword to continuously close the distance with the demon beast.
The battle gradually became more intense, and Xu Hui's swordsmanship became more and more exquisite, sometimes as light as the wind, sometimes as heavy as a thousand pounds. Every time the sword was swung, it was accompanied by the surge of sword energy, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
The deep purple monster was not to be outdone. Relying on its powerful body and constant inhalation of demonic energy, it engaged in a fierce battle with Xu Hui.
For a moment, the sword light and demonic energy intertwined together, forming a thrilling picture.
The fighting spirit in Xu Hui's eyes grew stronger and stronger, and her body was stretched to the limit. The green light on the Qingfeng sword became brighter, and finally after a clever dodge, she found the flaw of the monster and swung the sword, going straight for the vital point.
"Cut!" With a low shout, the Qingfeng sword cut through the sky like lightning, and with unstoppable force, it slashed fiercely on the monster.
The monster let out a shrill scream, and its huge body trembled under the sword light. Finally, it fell to the ground with a bang, turning into a pool of black demonic energy and dissipating between heaven and earth.
Xu Hui stopped and carefully recalled the battle just now, and found many problems. The sword speed was slow, not decisive enough, and the force was not strong enough.
Also, her first reaction was to look for the weak point, which was not right. Her cultivation was higher than that of the Warcraft, and what she wanted was to break all the attacks with one force, not to fight cleverly!
Xu Hui suddenly opened her eyes and shouted, "Come again!"
Wei Mubai said nothing, and released another magical beast, which was still in the early stage of foundation building.
Xu Hui gripped the sword tightly, her momentum growing stronger and stronger. When the monster pounced on her, its ferocious claws were already in front of her eyes, and in the next second it would grab her head and make her bleed.
The Qingfeng Sword was swung out suddenly, and powerful sword energy was released in an instant. With one sword strike, the second move of the Qiankun Sword Technique was fast and silent. The ferocious monster was instantly split into two, split directly in the middle, and died quite heroically.
Blood gushed out instantly, falling like a curtain of rain. Xu Hui immediately waved his hand and bounced away.
Wei Mubai turned his head slightly, a smile in his eyes, "Not bad, decisive in killing, keep going!"
Xu Hui understood what he meant and abandoned all the fancy moves. He drew his sword and killed with one strike!
She slew one magical beast after another with her sword, until those that ran in front of her were transformed from magical beasts into demons!
