Chapter 262: A Sword Transformed into a Flying Leaf
A sickle blade flew towards him, and Liu Xia quickly kicked the monster beside him away. Then he exerted force on his waist and dodged it by bending down. He then raised the Huasheng Sword and made a sword flower, piercing the sole of the monster's foot.
Just then, a clanging sound was heard, and a leopard-faced monster, holding a nine-ring broadsword, came charging at Liu Xia. Liu Xia slammed his palm onto the ground, his body spinning like a top. His Huasheng Sword whirred as it pierced the leopard-faced monster's throat.
In an instant, the devil's blood splattered, and the surrounding monsters seemed to be frightened. They just surrounded Liu Xia, roaring to increase their momentum, but did not move forward.
This gave Liu Xia a chance to catch his breath, but he was worried about Banxia and became a little anxious. However, with so many monsters, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape for a while.
Liu Xia was very anxious, but he had no good ideas.
Don’t underestimate these low-level monsters. They are all as fierce as beasts and will attack Liu Xia in droves as soon as he is careless.
Seeing this situation, all Liu Xia could think of was to kill these monsters one by one, but there were so many monsters that it would take more than a moment to solve them. Even if he could solve them, he didn't know whether he could sustain the situation with his physical strength.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Liu Xia's forehead. While he was thinking about whether there were other countermeasures, he was also wary of the monster's movements.
…
"My dear disciple, those who practice cultivation should never underestimate themselves. Only by firmly holding on to the great path in your heart can you be fearless and move forward."
"Since we have fate, we should accept it with peace of mind. Only by being sincere with it can we gain sincerity."
…
Liu Xia suddenly remembered the teachings of Master Chengxin.
Although his master was relatively inconspicuous among the elders, he was always able to give him advice when he was confused, and his words were always insightful.
"Huasheng Sword," Liu Xia murmured, "Our meeting is fate. This time, I will give myself to you!"
…
"Master, what you meant is that you want to communicate with him spiritually, but I am only at the Qi Refining level, how can I have a heart-to-heart with him?" Liu Xia asked hurriedly, puzzled.
Chengxin Zhenren shook his head. "It's not about communicating with it, but about trying to accept it, to like it. Don't look at it as just a weapon; it can sense your emotions. Just like how you interact with others, if someone genuinely dislikes you and rejects you, how can you approach them? How can you give your heart and soul to them and become their friend?"
…
Liu Xia covered his face with the sword, and the sword seemed to understand his whisper just now. A fluorescent light flashed across the blade of the Huasheng Sword. Just as Liu Xia jumped up and rushed towards the monster, the blade of the Huasheng Sword actually broke into pieces, and there was a spiritual light connecting them.
With a swing of the sword, the Huasheng Sword became like a whip, with broken blades spinning and piercing deeply into the bodies of the surrounding monsters.
Liu Xia's face was filled with surprise, and he withdrew his hand with a mixture of shock and joy. He saw that the spiritual light connecting the broken blade suddenly tightened, and all the broken blades were retracted. In the blink of an eye, it turned into an ordinary sword again.
What is this? The Huasheng Sword?
Liu Xia stared at the sword in his hand, seemingly still recovering from his shock. He had only ever seen the Huasheng Sword transformed into vines, but this was the first time he had seen it in a whip-like, sword-like form.
At this moment, green leaves suddenly grew out of the wounds of the monsters that were pierced by the sword fragments. They continued to grow like flowers blooming, and in a moment they wrapped them up, making it impossible for them to break free no matter what.
While the monster was struggling, green leaves gathered into a ball and blossomed into flowers of all colors, red, yellow, purple, and red. But after the flowers bloomed on these green leaves, there was no movement at all.
The scene was truly breathtaking. Liu Xia had no idea that the sword in his hand had such power.
The master was right!
“Pah pah pah!”
Just as Liu Xia was filled with surprise and the monster was afraid to move forward, a burst of applause was heard.
"It's really exciting!" Behind the monster, Hui Wu was standing on a tree branch, clapping his hands with a grim smile on his face.
…
The magic array Banxia had unintentionally set up was, to put it bluntly, identical to the one in the ancient bamboo forest. Although Banxia's cultivation was far inferior to that of the old man with the bamboo staff, for this type of weapon formation, the level of cultivation wasn't particularly important.
It’s not that the formation has nothing to do with cultivation. Take the Yuanqing Sect’s Jiuque Mountain guarding formation for example. It is only thanks to the profound cultivation of Master Zhao Ming that it is so solid.
The Jiuque Mountain's defensive formation was created by Master Zhaoming, drawing on the techniques of the Bamboo Staff Elder, combining the weapon formation with the magic formation. This formation possesses the durability of a weapon formation and the scalability of a magic formation.
However, this method also has the disadvantages of both. It is as easy to crack as the weapon formula and formation, and is also as dependent as the technique formula and formation.
Look, the core of the weapon formation that Banxia accidentally set up was a talisman that turned thousands of times. It was precisely because of this talisman that the monsters were always trapped in the formation and could not get out.
However, it was precisely because of the chaos of the monsters trapped in it that they bumped into and scratched around randomly. Before long, they scratched off the Bai Zhuan Qian Hui Talisman, which was the core of the formation.
As soon as the talisman at the center of the formation fell to the ground, all the yellow talismans originally attached to the tree trunk fell off and scattered all over the ground.
This made Banxia and the trapped monster stunned, staring at the floating yellow talismans. The situation was really funny.
But don't underestimate these low-level monsters. Although they are not of high rank and have not yet awakened to intelligence, they are still demons after all and still have emotions. Even those wild beasts have seven emotions and six desires, right?
For example, now these monsters are staring at these scattered talismans in a trance. When they come to their senses, they howl in anger, and their steps in looking for Banxia become more disorderly, looking very crazy.
Banxia cried out in pain, shrinking her body and not daring to move, let alone make any sound, for fear of being noticed by these ferocious monsters.
However, the weather was not good. Somehow, a strong wind suddenly blew towards them, making a rustling sound in the forest, and the talismans on Banxia's body were blown off like autumn leaves.
Banxia tried frantically to protect the talismans on her body, but the more panicked she was, the more unlucky she became. She only cared about the left side and ignored the right side. She grabbed what was in front of her but lost what was under her feet. In the end, she didn't keep any of them.
As Banxia gradually emerged, the forest fell silent for a moment. The demon and Banxia stared at each other, one in surprise, the other embarrassed.
"Uh..." Banxia finally spoke in the silence. It was not that she wanted to break the silence, but she really felt it was a bit embarrassing.
Perhaps it was because the silence was broken, or perhaps it was just the calm before the chaos, those monsters suddenly roared, bared their teeth, raised their swords and blades and rushed towards Banxia.
"Oh my God!" Banxia exclaimed, and hurriedly took out the judge's pen from her waist, and then began to scribble for a while.
In the chaos, Banxia didn't know what she was drawing. She only knew to use all her strength to express her spirit - she didn't want to die here!
