Chapter 20: Drink It All Up
Gu Yanze's eyes darkened. Cheng Xuan, the second-ranked disciple of Tianyu Sect, was also a genius in swordsmanship. He entered the Golden Core Realm at the age of eighteen and cultivated the sword intent. He was ranked in the top five among his peers. He should be at the peak of the Golden Core Realm now. He might not be his opponent.
But what was the Tianyu Sect thinking? The Tianyuan Secret Realm actually asked them to send out two of their own disciples. This must be due to other intentions.
Li Senting raised his lips sarcastically, "Gu Yanze, you and a half-crippled Bai Luochen can't stop us. It would be so embarrassing if you get beaten to your knees and beg for mercy."
After saying that, he waved his hand again, and the disciples behind him rushed towards the battlefield. Gu Yanze tried to stop them again, but Cheng Xuan knocked the talisman down.
When Cheng Xuan appeared, Bai Luochen realized that Li Senting came to cause trouble deliberately, and that a battle today was inevitable, so he had been prepared. After Gu Yanze's talisman fell, he rushed forward with his sword, and those disciples were stopped by him.
Almost at the same time, Cheng Xuan and Li Senting both moved. Cheng Xuan slashed out with his sword, directly attacking Gu Yanze, shattering the Vajra Talisman that protected his body and also knocking the man back seven or eight steps.
Li Senting drew his sword and pointed it at Bai Luochen. He activated his magic and a shadow of a tiger appeared behind him, pouncing towards him with its bloody mouth wide open.
Zhong Ling'er noticed something when the people from Tianyu Sect caught up with her, and was worried that they would attack the Marrow Cleansing Spring, so she took advantage of the cover of the Jade Leaf Toad and moved towards the spring little by little.
Sure enough, the sound of fighting soon reached her ears. Tian Yu Zong and his senior brother must have started a fight. With Senior Brother Gu around, she was not worried that her second senior brother would suffer a loss, but the longer the night, the more trouble there is. Therefore, it would be better to put the spiritual spring into the bottle as soon as possible.
After getting out of the battle circle and coming to the spiritual spring, Zhong Ling'er was surprised. This stream of water as thin as a hair, this pool of water not much bigger than a bathtub, can it be called a spring? If it weren't for the rich spiritual energy, who would believe that this could be a spiritual spring?
Time was of the essence and she had no time to complain. Zhong Ling'er took out a dozen jade bottles and filled them with spring water. Afraid that her storage ring could not conceal the scent of the spiritual spring, she first moved a jade bottle into the round bead to try it out. Finding that it was not decomposed, she then put the rest of the bottles in.
Half of the spring water had gone down, and Zhong Ling'er nodded with satisfaction. Look, how considerate she was, she even thought of leaving some for Senior Brother Gu and the others.
Turning back to watch the fight, he realized that something was wrong. How come the Tianyu Sect had such a powerful person who could defeat Senior Brother Gu?
Oh, Second Brother, the situation is not good here either. That Li Senting is really vicious. Every move he makes is ferocious. One fireball he throws down turns into a sea of fire. Many toads have been roasted by him, and the others were scared away.
Second Brother was obviously struggling. No, he seemed to have some reservations and didn't dare to use his full strength. Was it the effect of his old injury?
She wanted to ask Ning Haoyu for help, but found that their group of young disciples were even more miserable. They were beaten and fled in panic by the people of Tianyu Sect. They could not be relied on at all.
"Give up the spiritual spring and I will spare your life!"
Li Senting said this, but he showed no mercy. Another fireball fell, and a deep pit appeared on the ground. Bai Luochen flashed into the air and barely avoided it.
Zhong Ling'er turned around and looked at the marrow-cleansing spiritual spring with anger, "How dare you bully my second senior brother? I won't leave you even a drop of this spiritual spring liquid."
Zhong Ling'er began to move the spiritual spring into the round bead. The spring water was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. After the round bead absorbed the spiritual spring, a white ball of light was left behind.
Zhong Ling'er didn't have time to think about what that ball of light was. She just felt a severe headache and had an urge to fall asleep. But she couldn't. There was so much spiritual spring liquid that had not been collected yet, and her second senior brother was still fighting. How could she hold him back?
There was still some spiritual spring water left, and it was impossible to collect it. Zhong Ling'er heard the sound of wind coming from behind, and turned her head to see Cheng Xuan coming with a knife. Seeing her standing by the spiritual spring, he was furious, "You dare!"
The blade flashed, and a ray of golden light shot towards Zhong Ling'er. Zhong Ling'er looked terrified, and she lost her balance and fell headfirst into the spiritual spring pool. Gu Yanze, who followed closely, only had time to block the blade's intent, but had no time to take care of other things. He could only watch Zhong Ling'er fall into the spiritual spring pool.
"Junior sister!"
The gentleness on Bai Luochen's face had disappeared. His expression was as cold as ice, his eyes were red, and his sword was pointing to the sky. The sound of clanging rang out, and the swords in everyone's hands kept shaking, as if they had heard the call and were about to fly into the sky.
A large amount of spiritual energy swarmed in, and an invisible pressure swept across the earth, making the green leaves several inches shorter. This would be a terrifying move. Li Sending's face was solemn, and the fighting spirit in his eyes became stronger.
Come on, although your realm has fallen, many people think that your fighting ability is not inferior to mine, and you should still be among the top five of your peers. Today I will defeat you completely and make those people shut up.
I will let everyone know that the two beauties of Tai and Qiong are a thing of the past, and the two masters of swords and sabers of Tianyu Sect are the strongest.
"Second Junior Brother, I'm here!"
A loud shout was heard, and a white light flashed like lightning. Everyone's hair stood up, and they instinctively jumped into the air. The ground cracked, and a gully stopped where Cheng Xuan was standing.
A black figure appeared, grabbed Bai Luochen's sword-holding hand, pushed him towards Gu Yanchen, and then slashed at Li Senting with a sword. The sword energy scattered, and the cold sword intent extinguished the surrounding sparks and froze the earth.
"Ouyang Ruochen, why are you here?"
Li Senting retreated quickly, Cheng Xuan stepped forward quickly, and the two of them worked together to block the sword, but that was not the end. The second sword followed, and this sword came with more force, faster speed, and stronger power.
Bai Luochen and Gu Yanze rushed forward to rescue Zhong Ling'er. The little sister who was expected to struggle in the water did not exist at all. They only saw a big toad sucking water at the bottom of the spring.
If it weren't for the undissipated water spiritual power that proves this is a spiritual spring, who would have thought that there had been water here when seeing the clearly visible patterns on the bottom of the rock?
Did you drink all this?!
Zhong Ling'er raised her head, some dust rubbed against the tip of her nose, her cheeks were puffy, and she pursed her lips tightly. It was obvious that if she relaxed, water would spray out of her mouth.
Seeing Second Senior Brother, Zhong Ling'er opened her arms and motioned for him to carry her out. She was now completely tense and didn't dare to move.
Bai Luochen's expression was hard to describe. He waved his sleeves lightly and rolled Zhong Ling'er to the ground.
The battle in front was coming to an end. Li Senting fell to the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth. Cheng Xuan's hair crown was cut off, his hair was disheveled, and he was half-kneeling under the pressure of Ouyang Ruochen's sword.
"Stop it, we admit defeat, do you want to kill us?"
There was a flash of reluctance and hatred in Li Senting's eyes, but he had to admit defeat in front of Ouyang Ruochen. This was the undisputed number one among his peers, the only one who had entered the Nascent Soul stage, and had already reached a higher level than them.
