Chapter 76: Sword Pavilion’s Attack, the Newcomer Is at the Great Completion of the Foundation Establishment Stage
[Hint: successfully harvested, Thunder Bamboo x5 obtained]
[Hint: successfully harvested, Thunder Bamboo x3 obtained]
As Su Yi’s palm shot out a ray of multicolored light, two hints flashed in his mind.
Within the imprint space, eight Thunder Bamboo stalks suddenly appeared.
After the Thunder bamboo was harvested, it split into many stalks, with a few green leaves on the top.
“Not bad.”
After harvesting eight of them, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. Should he say that his luck was good or bad. As soon as he arrived on the island, he encountered a demon beast, and as soon as he entered the island, he found the Thunder Bamboo.
This kind of polarization made him feel as if he had suddenly jumped from the ground to the sky. The difference was too great.
But fortunately, as long as the Roaring-dragon Lizard blocked its sound wave attack, it would be easy to deal with.
Just as he was about to continue exploring deeper into the island with a happy face, a piercing sound suddenly came from behind him.
“Who is it?!” His body, which had not relaxed, tensed up even more.
Su Yi moved his feet and jumped more than ten meters away.
Boom!!
With a loud sound, a powerful attack landed on the spot where he was just now. The explosion created a deep pit, and countless black soil flew in all directions. It was hard to imagine what kind of power this attack had.
Su Yi stared at the deep pit created by the explosion, and cold sweat broke out on his back. If he had not reacted fast enough, he would have been in the deep pit by now.
Although this attack would not kill him, his qi and blood value would still be reduced to quite a large certain extent.
Soon, following this old and soft voice, a human figure appeared in Su Yi’s eyes. In front of the huge pit, a shadow suddenly flashed and then stopped.
An old man wearing a gray-white robe stood there quietly. The true essence on his body slightly stirred, causing the gray-white robe to vibrate.
The old man had a head of long gray hair, two white sideburns falling vertically, and a long gray beard under his chin. His wrinkled eyes flickered with a dangerous light as he stared straight at the place where Su Yi was.
Immediately, the old man snorted and said indifferently.
“Humph, I didn’t expect that a junior like you would have some ability. No wonder even Little Six was defeated by you.”
“It’s a pity that you will die on this Giant Lizard Island today.”
After saying that, the old man looked at him coldly, wanting to attack again.
However, Su Yi was confused. He looked at the old man with a heavy face and asked.
“May I ask who senior is and why you want to kill me?”
He looked at the old man coldly, and the true essence aura on his body started to move. From the first attack, it seemed that the old man was on a completely different level from those Heaven’s Favourites.
The old man in his eyes was an expert, and he was one of the top experts in the great desolate Central Plains.
A faint sense of danger was born in Su Yi’s heart.
This old man’s aura was extremely terrifying. If it was not for the fact that he had attacked before, and the true essence left on his body, Su Yi would have really thought that he was an ordinary person.
However, how could an ordinary person enter the great desolate region? Thus, he dared to conclude that the old monster in his eyes was definitely an expert from some clan.
Hence, he wanted to find out which clan’s old fellow had come to deal with him.
Thousand Treasures Pavilion?
When the old man heard this, he looked at Su Yi and narrowed his eyes slightly. His shriveled lips parted as he spoke indifferently.
“I didn’t expect a junior like you to be so calm. There’s no harm in me telling you.”
“I am the Sword Pavilion’s third elder, Xuan Lingzi. Just Yesterday, you shattered my old friend’s immortal Destiny imprint. Now, he has passed away.”
“I am here today to take your life and send him on his way.”
After saying that, his sword-like gaze landed on Su Yi.
Being stared at by this sword-like cold gaze, Su Yi felt a chill run down his spine.
This old monster in front of him was actually from the Sword Pavilion. Also, who was his old friend?
Yesterday, Dark Abyss Cliff!
In just an instant, Su Yi had figured out the whole story.
When he was at Dark Abyss Cliff, he had already killed a team from the Sword Pavilion. However, he did not expect that the old man was actually the old friend of this so-called third elder.
The strength of these two people were not on the same level at all.
And that Xuan Yijian…
His eyes were also slightly narrowed. The true essence in his body had already started to circulate crazily, as if he was ready to fight.
When the old man Xuan Lingzi saw this, the corner of his mouth curled into a mocking smile as he said indifferently, “although courage can be increased, it is a futile move.”
As he said this, he waved his hand. Without any gathering process, it was as if he had thrown out a strand of true essence. That true essence directly shot towards Su Yi.
In the process of shooting over, that true essence actually gathered into a strand of sword qi.
Looking at the incoming sword qi, Su Yixin’s pupils shrank, but his body did not react in the slightest. He moved his feet, and under the powerful acceleration, he quickly sidestepped the incoming sword qi.
His breathing was a little hurried, and he quickly formed a spell in his hand.
“Tiangang Fifth move, Tiangang Sword Intent Finger!”
The cold light in his hand condensed into sword qi, and instantly shot toward the old man.
When he threw out the sword qi at the tip of his finger, he took out a long sword.
He silently shouted.
“Flowing Light Dragon Shadow first form, Flowing Shadow Flash!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body instantly turned into a black shadow and disappeared from Xuan Lingzi’s eyes.
“Huh?”
Xuan Lingzi looked at Su Yi who suddenly disappeared, raised his eyebrows, and asked in puzzlement.
In an instant, Su Yi came to his side, and the shining long sword in his hand stabbed toward Xuan Lingzi’s throat.
Just as he was about to succeed, Xuan Lingzi’s feet moved slightly, and he actually took a step back.
Then, he quickly reached out a hand and grabbed Su Yi’s long sword.
Seeing this, Su Yi’s eyes were shocked. He instantly let go of the long sword in his hand, and his body quickly retreated.
This old monster was too terrifying. He could move his true essence at will and condense it out of his body. Could it be that he was a core formation cultivator?!
On second thought, this was not very likely. However, he was very sure that this monster, Xuan Lingzi was definitely at the late stage of the foundation establishment realm.
Moreover, it was very likely that he was almost at the great completion of the foundation establishment realm!
Crossing the golden core tribulation of the foundation establishment realm could be said to be extremely dangerous. Many genius cultivators died in this realm-breaking lightning tribulation because they were not prepared.
Therefore, not long after the opening of the Dao calendar, there was a rumor that it was impossible to pass the golden core tribulation before reaching the limit of one’s lifespan.
And this Xuan Lingzi in front of Su Yi was probably just as Su Yi had thought. He was a foundation establishment cultivator who had suppressed his cultivation for hundreds of years.
Looking at Su Yi who had abandoned his magic tool sword, Xuan Lingzi squeezed hard, and the magic tool sword instantly shattered.
The true essence in his hand started to fluctuate, and he said lightly.
“Junior, you are quite interesting. How about you take this?”
