A figure in white robes flashed across the blue stone steps. With each light step, she left behind several illusory images of five-colored spiritual lotuses on the steps. Although her movements were gentle, she exuded a terrifying aura of destruction with every gesture.
"Hmm? Luo Lingyan, are you going to get involved in this?"
Looking at Luo Lingyan, whose clear eyes were like lotus flowers emerging from water, her long sword in her hand, and her white dress fluttering gracefully with the circulation of her true energy, Xia Qi, who was originally full of confidence, slowly turned gloomy.
Luo Lingyan didn't say anything. With a slight lift of her eyebrows, her clear eyes revealed disgust, perhaps because she disliked the cultivation method this person practiced, or perhaps because she wanted to ambush him while he was cultivating.
However, Luo Lingyan attributed all of this to the former, unwilling to admit in her heart that she stood up to help Qin Xin.
"If that's the case, then don't blame us for being ruthless!"
Xia Qi, dressed in plain clothes, suddenly took out something that looked like an imperial edict. His sharp gaze was fixed on Luo Lingyan, Qin Xin, and the others in front of him, and his calm voice was filled with killing intent.
"The Dharma Image and Divine Decree!"
Xia Yue gasped in surprise as she looked at what Xia Qi had taken out.
She was very familiar with this thing because it was a gift from her father. It contained the power of a single thought of a Dharma Aspect Realm expert. After a martial artist cultivates the Qi Sea Realm, they are divided into the Yuan Mansion Realm, the Core Formation Realm, and the Dharma Aspect Realm. Of course, the characteristic of a Dharma Aspect Realm martial artist is that their martial spirit can condense a Dharma Aspect phantom. When the martial spirit is in operation, it carries a trace of the will of heaven and earth.
"Hmph! Since you know that, that's good. Make Qin Xin obediently hand over the Earth-rank martial arts and that spiritual weapon, and I'll consider letting you off the hook."
Xia Qi held the Dharma Image Decree in his hand and said with a proud look that he had asked for this item for a long time before his father bestowed it upon him. However, this Dharma Image Decree is a one-time use item and will be destroyed once used. If Luo Lingyan had not appeared, he would not have been willing to take out this precious item.
When Xia Ming saw his brother take out such a treasure, the jealousy in his eyes vanished in an instant. After all, Xia Qi was the first heir of the Great Xia Dynasty and was naturally more favored than him. So he stood blankly behind him, watching the dispute between the people in front of him.
"Hmph! If you want to steal something, then come and try!"
Qin Xin's voice was filled with anger. He was already annoyed that he had barely managed to withstand Xia Qi's powerful attack, but now both Xia Qi and Xia Ming were eyeing the things on his body.
"Heavenly Dragon Dharma Form!"
Xia Qi's gaze was icy. Seeing that the people in front of him had no intention of retreating, he lightly patted the Dharma Image Decree. Instantly, a giant azure dragon sprang out from the decree.
"roar!"
The giant azure dragon opened its blood-red maw and roared angrily.
Although this giant azure dragon looks like a dragon, its dragon bloodline is very thin, so it looks more like a four-legged snake.
"Go! Kill them!"
Xia Qi pointed at Qin Xin and the others. The giant azure dragon opened its mouth and transformed into a streak of azure and red light, directly attacking the group.
"Bang!"
With just one strike, the people of the Eastern Wilderness Academy immediately used all their strength to block it, but they could only slow down the further attack of the giant azure dragon dharma form.
"I wonder what the Yin essence of a half-step Qi Sea Realm martial artist tastes like!"
After seeing Luo Lingyan use her inner energy to block the attack, Xia Qi's eyes revealed a malicious intent.
"court death!"
How could Luo Lingyan tolerate Xia Qi's desecration? The moment her foot landed, several streams of spiritual energy flowed into his body from the floating five-colored spiritual lotus beneath her feet.
With a single swing of his sword, he aimed directly at the azure giant dragon's avatar.
"Bang!"
When Luo Lingyan's longsword clashed with the Dharma image, it was like a mountain boulder falling, with a continuous rumbling sound.
A Qi Sea Realm expert's martial core transforms into a Qi Sea, and the vigor of their true Qi far surpasses that of an Opening Aperture Realm martial artist. Even a half-step Qi Sea Realm expert's true Qi is far more abundant than that of an Opening Aperture Realm martial artist.
"Buzz!"
The longsword emitted a mournful sound, and the five-colored spiritual lotus behind Luo Lingyan began to show signs of disintegration.
Under the influence of a mere trace of mental power from a Dharma Aspect Realm expert, Luo Lingyan was momentarily overwhelmed and only managed to maintain her strength for a fleeting moment before being forced back.
Xia Ming and Ba Dao, along with the others, were immediately surrounded by the rest of the Eastern Wilderness Academy, and they unleashed their martial spirits, creating an extremely powerful aura.
"Six-Star Martial Spirit, Demon-Transforming Blood-Drinking Blade!"
Eight crimson acupoints shone on Ba Dao's naked body, and his scars emitted a red glow. A large sword made of red and black material condensed from the void. When he held the sword in his hand, a smile appeared on his lips, but the smile had a bloodthirsty taste.
"Haha, I'm itching for a fight! This time I'm going to have a good battle!"
"Six-Star Martial Spirit, Mount Tai Stone Guardian!"
Seeing that Ba Dao was about to make a move, Shi Shan let out a hearty laugh. He planted a shield made of black gold directly into the ground, and eight golden acupoints of light shone around his body. A golden boulder floated up behind him, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Seeing this, the others also activated their martial spirits.
"Five-Star Martial Spirit! Holy Cold Water Carp King!"
Zhan Qingqi wore a simple blue dress. Her martial spirit was instantly activated. Four blue true acupoints flowed around her body, and the stray hairs that fell down her temples danced continuously under the fluctuation of true energy. On her slender waist, a large blue fish coiled up and spat out a ball of energy, which directly transformed into a true energy veil that covered her entire body.
"Six-Star Martial Spirit! Heavenly Enchanting Purple Spirit Fox!"
Xia Yue's entire demeanor changed drastically. Every gesture she made was filled with a seductive charm, making her completely different from the elegant and noble Princess Xia Yue. At this moment, she seemed more like a woman who had been through many storms. As three purple acupoints flickered around her, the phantom of a purple fox appeared behind her. Its two fox eyes were very deep, as if it had special abilities.
Seeing this, Qin Xin frowned. The enemy had a large number of people and was powerful, and Xia Qi also had the Dharma Image Decree in his hand. Once they took it, they would definitely lose.
"Miss Luo, if I lure Xia Qi away, how confident are you in protecting the people of the Eastern Wilderness Academy?" Qin Xin cautiously transmitted his voice to Luo Lingyan in front of him.
"I haven't fully recovered yet. My current strength is at the eighth level of the Awakening Realm. However, if it weren't for that Dharma Image Spiritual Decree, I would be ninety percent certain that I could lead the people from the Eastern Wilderness Academy out of this Luoshen Gate Ruins!"
Upon hearing Qin Xin's voice transmission, Luo Lingyan was initially surprised, but she still answered Qin Xin.
"Then I'll leave these people in your care, young lady!"
"Whoosh!"
Qin Xin didn't say much. He didn't want to put Xia Yue and the others in danger because of himself. At this moment, the true energy of his nine main meridians surged out and all converged at his feet, heading directly eastward into the Luoshen Palace. This was the escape route that Qin Xin had planned long ago.
"Trying to run?!"
Seeing Qin Xin flee so decisively, Xia Qi sneered and chased after him with the Dharma Image Decree in his hand.
Qin Xin's feet were enveloped in a swirling azure and crimson true energy. With each step, the powerful propulsion of the true energy transformed his figure into a phantom. The Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff in his hand was infused with martial spirit, and the azure and crimson true energy swirled around it. Furthermore, the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Spirit Pattern was activated, directly covering the entire Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff.
"Wildfire Hundred Slashes!"
With the infusion of spiritual power, a giant blade of deep red slowly took shape, containing extremely violent energy, and slashed directly at the Heavenly Dragon Dharma Image that was chasing from behind.
"boom!"
A violent explosion swept in, and Xia Qi, who was somewhat careless for a moment, was fortunate to be protected by his True Qi Gauze Robe, and most of the explosive energy was absorbed by the "Heavenly Dragon Dharma Image". However, the intense heat scorched all his hair.
You will die!
Seeing his own wasteful behavior, Xia Qi roared and charged directly towards Qin Xin.
The students from the Eastern Wilderness Academy who saw Qin Xin lead Xia Qi away all looked worried, but they couldn't worry about that at the moment, as the students in front of them had already started to make their move.
