Chapter 65 Why Not Use My Power? (Bonus Chapter at 17,000 words)
Because of Chu Jin's matter, Yu Sui felt an even greater sense of crisis.
She pondered the Dragon Slayer Cave challenge. Should she try to appease Sheng Fei and get him to take her through it, so she could obtain a Heavenly Secret Technique to sustain herself?
So Yu Sui took the food box and went to find Sheng Fei at the famous restaurant.
Beside the Leisure Pool, Sheng Fei was talking to Mu Mengbai when he saw Yu Sui and waved to her.
Mu Mengbai watched Yu Sui slowly walk over from the opposite bank of the stream and rubbed his hands together, saying, "How so? Was our conversation last night useful? My sister has finally come to her senses and even took the initiative to come to you."
Sheng Fei, unusually, didn't wear a sarcastic expression. Instead, he nodded with considerable satisfaction: "She's still very smart; she learns quickly."
The Xiaoyao Pool River has too many branches, some of which are long and winding, and the current is rapid. The rushing sound makes people have to shout loudly to talk when they stand by the water.
Fortunately, the stream in front of them was calm and gentle, and they were diving. There were also many disciples walking around in the water looking for stones.
Yu Sui stepped across the large rocks in the river to the other side without getting her skirt wet. As soon as she entered, she heard Sheng Fei say to Mu Mengbai, "Don't worry, thanks to you last year, we got into the Dragon Head Ye Pool. This time, we'll definitely take you back."
Mu Mengbai put his arm around Sheng Fei's shoulder, smiling brightly: "That's good, that's good. It's perfect that we good brothers keep going back and forth."
Yu Sui was slightly taken aback, but before the two men could look over, she quickly called out, "Third Brother."
She walked over, put down the food box, and said to Sheng Fei, "I didn't know the pastor was here, so I only brought you one serving. Is it enough for you?"
Mu Mengbai, still with his arm around Sheng Fei's shoulder, smiled at Yu Sui and said, "Let your brother eat here, and we'll go to the dining hall. There won't be enough."
Sheng Fei gave Mu Mengbai a warning look, then said to Yu Sui, "We'll eat here."
Mu Mengbai silently withdrew his hand: "Who are you talking to?"
Yu Sui smiled and said, "Then I'll be going now."
"Hey!" Mu Mengbai wanted to go with Yu Sui, but Sheng Fei grabbed him and pulled him back. "Little sister, take me with you! We'll eat in the dining hall! It's on me!"
Yu Sui sighed inwardly. Indeed, feelings need time to develop. Sheng Fei wanted to repay Mu Mengbai's favor, so he couldn't possibly take his younger sister, who was only at the first level, to slowly venture into the Dragon Slaying Cave.
My senior brother also needs to help Zhong Lishan, and there are quite a few people targeting him, so bringing her along will only increase the difficulty.
You'd better figure it out yourself.
Yu Sui raised her hand and rubbed her slightly sore neck as she walked through the deep water area.
A splashing sound came from the water, and several disciples who broke out of the water were cursing and swearing. They had been underwater for so long, but they still hadn't seen any stones with names.
Yan Xiaochuan shook the water off his hair, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a beautiful figure passing by on the shore. He was stunned by her beauty, but when he turned to look, she was already far away.
Yu Sui went to the Yin-Yang Five Elements Field to wait for Li Jinshuang and Xue Mushi to start the formation.
The Breath of Earth is not her power, nor is the Strange Fire, but surely the Divine Eye of Heaven is?
The former was an unexpected event that no one wanted, and with only half a piece of the Breath Soil, it was harmful and useless to her, and was simply a burden.
Not to mention the strange fire.
It is even more dangerous than the Breath of Earth.
As an innate and extraordinary skill, Divine Mechanism cannot be as unreliable as the previous two.
Yu Sui rested her chin on her hands, staring blankly as she recalled the journey she had taken. Before she could get into the flow, she saw Li Jinshuang and Xue Mushi walking towards her from a distance.
Because of the "being stood up while waiting" incident last night, Xue Mushi was keeping watch at Tingfengchi today, waiting for Yu Sui and Li Jinshuang to say that they had arrived before setting off. Unexpectedly, Yu Sui arrived so early tonight, and since the two of them had nothing else to do, they both rushed over.
Yu Sui waved to the two of them and stood up.
She smiled and asked Li Jinshuang, "Didn't Shu Chujun bother you and cause you trouble?"
Li Jinshuang shook her head.
Shu Chujun had no chance during the day, so he was probably waiting in the dormitory to question Li Jinshuang when she returned.
Xue Mushi said, "It seems like someone else followed her here."
He gestured behind him with his eyes as he spoke.
Yu Sui and Li Jinshuang also saw it. Usually, no one comes here, but today Li Jinshuang was in the limelight, and more people were curious about her. However, they did not expect that someone would secretly follow them.
Li Jinshuang was a little embarrassed and said, "I'll go and chase them away."
"Don't worry about it, they can't get into the armored formation anyway." Yu Sui didn't pay much attention, turned around and activated the formation on the star map, entering the Asura Hell.
Crimson sparks descended from the sky. Yu Sui looked at the general guarding the city in front of him, and every time he entered, he was shocked by its presence.
The city's general, who was far away from them, seemed to only survey the ground beneath his feet and did not look into the distance.
"Your sword spirit won't cut us down this time, will it?" Xue Mushi asked Li Jinshuang.
Li Jinshuang paused for a moment, then said softly, "I'm not sure, but I'll do my best."
Upon hearing this, Yu Sui and Xue Mushi both stepped back and moved away from her.
Li Jinshuang: "..."
Yu Sui said, "You summon the sword spirit first, and we'll see how things go."
Xue Mushi nodded repeatedly and then arranged the calming talisman.
Li Jinshuang held the sword without hesitation and was calmer than before. She was ready to face anything. She reversed the hand holding the sword, pointed the tip at the ground, and summoned the sword spirit.
A colossal figure, casting a massive shadow and accompanied by the deafening clang of swords, materialized behind Li Jinshuang. White heat waves emanated from four withered skulls, and eight long arms nimbly twirled the blades in their hands.
This time, the sword spirit did not attack Yu Sui and Xue Muming, but the two could see that its fighting spirit was high. Almost before the evil spirits in the battle formation could come over, it had already sent out countless sword blades and made a deafening sword cry.
The ground trembled, and Yu Sui sensed something was wrong. The number of evil spirits attacking from the front was greater than usual. It seemed that with the provocation and pressure from the sword spirit, the armored formation responded with even greater power.
The demons that could previously be deterred by the sonic barrier attack of the sword spirit were all gone this time. They roared and charged forward with the same high fighting spirit.
But isn't the Star Chart a deadly array without a master controlling it?
Yu Sui snatched the sword and caught the evil spirit's attack. The two swords clashed and sparks flew. She could feel that the evil spirit's attack was stronger than before.
As the two confronted each other, the demon revealed its sharp, white fangs and let out a menacing growl from its throat. Its dark golden eyes turned into cold, vertical pupils, and Yu Sui's face was reflected in the burning flames.
The crisp sound of swords rang out from afar, and the demon's swordsmanship was swift and powerful, employing techniques never seen before. Yu Sui was forced to retreat step by step, only able to dodge.
The self-awareness separated from the threefold soul control can resonate with the Divine Mechanism Technique's Heavenly Eye.
Yu Sui recalled that every time she resonated with the "Heavenly Eye," it was when she did not yet know the Nine Streams Technique and could not mobilize the Qi of the Five Elements.
In other words, one cannot use the Five Elements Qi at the moment of using the Divine Mechanism Technique.
However, the Ghost Daoist's "Soul Control" separates self-consciousness, which actually makes up for the shortcomings of the Divine Mechanism Technique. While the second level of Soul Control uses the Five Elements Qi to materialize the Nine Streams Technique, the third level can also use the Divine Mechanism Technique.
At this moment, Yu Sui could only use his "Divine Eye of Heaven" to capture the flow of the Five Elements Qi of others, such as Li Jinshuang's sword spirit attack and the sword technique attack used by the evil ghost. Because he knew the attack trend in advance from the captured Five Elements Qi, he was able to avoid it in advance.
During a break in the battle, Yu Sui thought: Her master told her that she had to learn the three levels of Soul Control to be considered a beginner. Did he really not know that she could only use the Divine Mechanism Technique at the third level?
With her longsword broken, Yu Sui snapped out of her daze and, just as the blade grazed her nose, used her Wind Control Technique to turn and create distance.
With her Heavenly Eye activated, her speed and reaction time allowed her to escape death from the Demon Sword Technique every time, always seizing the perfect moment, just a hair's breadth away.
As Yu Sui broke free from the horde of evil spirits, golden five-element energy ignited around her. Suddenly, she saw a colossal creature in front of her, one of the four heads of the sword spirit, which had been staring at her the whole time.
Those fixed gazes revealed a sense of vigilance.
The demons attacked swiftly and in large numbers, forcing all three to retreat and flee.
As Li Jinshuang covered the rear, a deep, inhuman voice suddenly echoed in her mind from the sword spirit: "Be careful of that woman."
"Too dangerous."
The sword spirit protects its master, and therefore will sense any force that poses a threat to its master.
Li Jinshuang's sword spirit is very special; it possesses self-awareness, yet its instinct to protect its master remains.
Its senses are sharper and more accurate than those of other sword spirits.
Li Jinshuang glanced at Yu Sui, who had retreated because of the evil spirit, frowned slightly, and replied, "She is not a threat."
The sword spirit could still sense that threatening power, a power that looked down on everything from above, a power that could crush them, bring fear, and leave them powerless to resist. But since Li Jinshuang said so, it did not act rashly.
Unbeknownst to them, the three were forced back into the depths of the reeds by the evil spirits. Yu Sui stopped at the bank, where a vast army of black-armored cavalry stood on the opposite bank. In the dim light, their divine soul cores shone like golden stars.
Yu Sui stared blankly at the people on the opposite bank.
Another Yu Sui strolled from the imposing black-armored cavalry army to the very front. Her red skirt lightly brushed against the grass on the bank, and her hair ornaments jingled. Her calm and casual movements revealed that she was the master of the armored formation.
Yu Sui gazed at the materialized "her" form of the strange fire.
She stopped barefoot on the opposite bank and said to Yu Sui with a smile, "Since you're so eager to become stronger, why not use my power?"
In the clear river water, at the moment when the black and white fish crossed paths, black sparks rose from the opposite bank.
Yu Sui's eyes lit up with a beautiful orange-gold light. Without hesitation, she turned around and shouted at Xue Mushi, "Get out!"
Xue Mushi reacted quickly. He didn't want to keep pushing himself, but the evil spirits' attack power had increased today, and he was afraid that if he continued fighting, these evil spirits would also upgrade to the thirteenth realm.
All the talismans floating in the air were ignited. As Xue Mushi's divination technique stabilized and Yu Sui's five-element light core expanded, the balance of the five elements in the military formation was disrupted.
Yu Sui was also anxious today. In his anxiety, he activated the Divine Eye of Heaven and saw for the first time the current trend of the five elements in the Asura Hell formation of the Armor Formation.
The power manifested in her eyes as a series of incantations, which she could understand instantly. Rotating pillars of incantation light rose between heaven and earth, and the dense incantations corresponded to the shattered sparks within the armored formation, the stench of the wind, and the evil spirits constantly emerging from the flames.
When Yu Sui returned to the Yin-Yang Five Elements Field, the golden morning light was dazzling, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to shield herself.
Was the last scene I saw the power of the Heavenly Eye?
Exhausted and panting, Xue Mushi sat down on the spot, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked up at Yu Sui: "Your strength has increased again, hasn't it?"
Li Jinshuang also looked at Yu Sui.
Tonight, everyone noticed the abnormality of the evil spirits' power within the armored formation.
The power of the armored formation should change depending on who activates it.
Yu Sui rubbed her eyes, blinked again, and said softly, "But I'm still in the first realm."
Xue Mushi looked at her and silently uttered a sentence: "A man of few words who keeps his true abilities hidden."
This time, Yu Sui scratched his head and decided to go to the Ghost Path Holy Hall to ask his master for clarification.
