While They Cultivate Martial Arts, I Cultivate Immortality

Cultivation methods on Earth have declined, and Celestial Star has become a martial arts holy land. Strange remnant souls, mutated fierce beasts, and the elusive power of curses all point to the de...

Chapter 48 A desperate battle

Shi Mengqi's heart skipped a beat, and she said with a hint of fear, "Wang Hao, are you alright? What are you grinning about? Don't scare me, you know I'm easily frightened..."

"Haha, so that's how it is. This animal skin scroll is the real wordless sword manual, and that scripture..." Wang Hao turned his gaze over and saw that the scripture had disappeared.

This is the final test left by the Sword Ancestor. If the newcomer only has eyes for the wordless sword manual, then it is destined to be in vain, and may even be erased by the killing intent left by the Sword Ancestor.

The ball of light contained not only the legacy of the wordless sword manual, but also the Sword Ancestor's understanding and insights into the way of the sword, making it even more precious than the wordless sword manual itself.

Furthermore, it was learned from the inheritance that the white longsword formed by the fusion of six immortal swords was called the Boundless Divine Sword, but it was now damaged and could only be repaired by reforging.

As for the sword embryo, it was made of Yin-Yang Xuan Iron. It was a semi-finished product with no grade, but it could absorb various weapons to enhance itself.

Legend has it that Yin-Yang Black Iron is transformed from primordial chaos and can encompass all things. Weapons forged from this iron will naturally inherit its properties.

"How do we get out of here? This seems to be a dead end." Shi Mengqi looked worried. She vaguely sensed that various forces were already heading towards this tunnel.

Wang Hao suppressed his joy and then smiled, "Don't rush, wait for me for five minutes. I have a way to get you away, but please don't let anyone disturb me."

Seeing his solemn expression, Shi Mengqi nodded seriously, then turned around, holding the Boundless Divine Sword in her left hand and the Yin-Yang Profound Iron Sword Embryo in her right, ready for battle.

At this moment, Wang Hao was groping around on the ground. Finally, he found a strange symbol under the table. If an ordinary person saw this symbol, they would definitely feel dizzy.

"The Sword Ancestor did indeed leave a way out." Wang Hao was overjoyed. He then took the Yin-Yang Profound Iron Sword Embryo from Shi Mengqi and put all his strength into it.

Hearing the crackling sound behind her, Shi Mengqi couldn't help but turn around and see Wang Hao holding a sword embryo, carving something on the ground.

She glanced at the ground and saw that Wang Hao had carved out a series of mysterious symbols. Just one glance made her feel dizzy.

This doesn't mean Shi Mengqi is like ordinary people, but rather that this rune is beyond her comprehension. Even Wang Hao had to suppress the urge to vomit while forcibly inscribing it.

This level of talisman was beyond his capacity to handle, but based on his experience from his previous life, he could barely manage to create it, even though it would have significant side effects. But at this moment, he couldn't care less about that.

Because a figure was already rushing towards them from afar, like a whirlwind, moving at great speed, creating a whooshing sound.

Shi Mengqi's expression turned solemn. She picked up the Boundless Divine Sword and stood in front of Wang Hao.

Ten seconds later, the figure gradually became clear; it was Yin Yi, the young master of the black market. Although Shi Mengqi didn't know what was happening outside, it was clear that the newcomer was up to no good.

Yin Yi did not take Shi Mengqi seriously. The reason he was able to catch up so quickly was largely due to his genetic modification, but he was still seriously injured and his strength was only about 20%.

Even so, he still possessed the strength of the Profound Realm, which was far beyond what Wang Hao and the other two could contend with, not to mention that Shi Mengqi was the only one present.

"Give me what you have obtained, and I may leave you a complete corpse." Yin Yi also saw the wooden table, but it was empty.

It's obvious without even thinking that the two people in front of you took all the good stuff.

Facing Yin Yi, Shi Mengqi felt immense pressure, as if a tiger the size of a mountain was walking towards her step by step.

Every word Yin Yi uttered was like a deafening tiger's roar, making Shi Mengqi's delicate body feel as if it were about to fly away. This was the suppression of realm.

However, Shi Mengqi still tried her best to withstand the pressure and held the Wujian Divine Sword horizontally in front of her. Although she did not know any swordsmanship, having a weapon was still a great advantage.

Yin Yi gave Shi Mengqi a mocking look and sneered, "You really are a case of refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. Fine, I'll beat you to death first, and then I'll see what kind of nonsense that kid is drawing."

Shi Mengqi's gaze sharpened as she said, "You underestimate me too much. If you were in your prime, I might be a little afraid of you, but you're still recovering from serious injuries, yet you dare to be so arrogant."

"Aren't you afraid I'll reverse my meridians and perish together with you?"

Yin Yi smiled disdainfully, then took a step and headed straight for Wang Hao under the table, since Chi Tu might catch up at any time.

"If you want to kill him, you'll have to step over my dead body first!" Shi Mengqi said coldly as she moved her foot.

Although Yin Yi was still recovering from serious injuries, he did not take Shi Mengqi seriously. He quickly stretched out his right hand and grabbed forward with his five fingers, which immediately made a sound of air being torn apart.

Shi Mengqi dared not be careless. She grabbed the broken Wujian Divine Sword and swung it forward, treating the divine sword like a stick. Even so, it still unleashed a formidable power.

The sword's edge grazed Yin Yi's waist, sending sparks flying. Fortunately, he hadn't removed his armor; otherwise, that single blow would have been enough to cut him in half at the waist.

"Damn it." Yin Yi felt humiliated. Clearly, the other party was a little girl who didn't even know how to use a sword, and she had almost cut him in half.

He then channeled all his inner energy into the meridians of his hands, causing his fists to emit a faint red glow, and the surrounding temperature even changed slightly.

"Break!"

Yin Yi unleashed a punch, and an overwhelming force surged forth instantly, the whistling sound deafening. He used all his strength in this attack.

"Bang!"

Shi Mengqi held her sword horizontally in front of her, but the punch was too powerful, exceeding the level of a Yellow Realm martial artist, and was simply beyond her ability to withstand.

The terrifying force pierced through the Boundless Divine Sword and struck Shi Mengqi's body, causing her to cough up blood and fly backward, crashing heavily into a wall.

Yin Yi ignored the injured and bleeding Shi Mengqi and strode towards Wang Hao, wanting to see what this person was trying to depict.

Wang Hao, who was focused on inscribing runes, naturally sensed Yin Yi getting closer and closer. However, he was at a critical juncture, and if he gave up, he would suffer a terrifying backlash.

Just as Yin Yi was seven zhang away from Wang Hao, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from behind him, heading straight for his back. He then moved his feet and shifted his body to the side.

Shi Mengqi's face was deathly pale, and the veins on her forehead could be seen bulging. Holding the Wujian Divine Sword, she stood in front of Wang Hao, stared at Yin Yi opposite her, and said coldly, "I said, if you want to kill him, you have to step over my dead body first."

Yin Yi's expression hardened, and he said, "In order to protect him, you actually reversed your meridians and caused your true energy to flow backward in exchange for powerful strength. Don't you know that by doing this, you will lose all your martial arts cultivation?"

"For him, what does it matter if I die from a bursting body?"
