es time. An area spanning nearly a thousand miles is already quite considerable. 。Before he had become a recognizable figure, Lu Xia Tian had already left. 。This method also has drawbacks, and if you...“Who dares to block the way of this emissary!” The black-robed star envoy left the manor in the wilderness and raced along a desolate path. However, at this moment, there was an emaciated young scholar on the path.
"Hand over the storage pouch that you received from that woman just now, and we can go our separate ways peacefully." Lu Xia Tian said in a low voice.
“Strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many. I'd like to see what you're capable of.” The black Star Envoy roared, and whoosh, dozens of black tentacles flew towards Lu Xia Tian, each with several mouths full of sharp teeth. At this moment, the mouths were open, as if ready to bite the enemy at any time.
Having felt the power of this black-clad star envoy up close, although imposing, Lu Xia Tian finally let out a breath. A master’s moves reveal their true skill. This black-clad star envoy was definitely not yet at the level of a great cultivator or a powerful demon. As long as they hadn't reached that realm, there was still a possibility.
“Completely different from any demon cultivator I’ve ever encountered, and not human either. Since you refuse to cooperate, let me tear off your mask and see what kind of monster you are.” Lu Xia Tian snorted coldly, clasped his hands together, and eight flying swords hovered into the air.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It was the ethereal flying sword, swooshing through the air. The ethereal flying sword clashed head-on with the dozen or so black tentacles of the cloaked star messenger.
The black tentacles of the Black Star Envoy are also extremely sharp, and for some unknown reason, they are forged from an unknown material that can actually block the sharpness of a flying sword.
"Such a formidable sword formation, you'd best cease this at once. Otherwise, should you injure this envoy, even with your heaven-defying abilities, you won't escape the pursuit of the forces behind me!"
The ten-odd tentacles of the black star envoy danced densely, impenetrable to the naked eye. At the same time, his heart beat faster and faster in fear. Although it seemed he wasn't at a disadvantage, he knew deep down that he was struggling. Every clash with the flying sword made him realize just how formidable the opponent was. The material of the sword was unknown, yet it possessed both grace and unmatched sharpness. Furthermore, its attacks were relentless, leaving no room for counterattack.
"Hiss!" Lu Xia Tian roared coldly, his hands clasping together. The eight ethereal flying swords surrounding the black-clad Star Envoy trembled, merging in a flash of light and forming a transparent sphere with only one three-foot long sword inside.
The sword seemed to be alive, breathing in and out.
"Go!" Lu Xia Tian's fingers danced with sword gestures, and he let out a low growl.
The sword hovered in mid-air. Before Lu Xia Tian could finish his words, it had already flown towards the black-clad star envoy.
“So fast!” The black star messenger was startled, and the black tentacles behind him whipped like iron whips.
A "thunk" as the weapon pierced flesh, and several shrieks rang out from the cloaked star envoys. Within the transparent orb, the small sword flashed repeatedly, severing four or five of the black tentacles that had been locked in a stalemate with the ethereal flying swords. The severed black tentacles lay on the ground, still twitching like octopus limbs as if they retained some life force.
The Dark Star Envoy, seeing the sword, his face turned pale with fear and he immediately turned to flee. At the same time, a large cloud of black smoke exploded from his body, blindingly dark.
Lu Xiaitian let out a cold snort. Even with his own eyes, it would be difficult to see, but just now the opponent's tentacle had been severed by him, and some sword qi was still clinging to it. The opponent hadn't even had time to purge it clean. For cultivators at the Yuan Ying stage, in many situations, they wouldn't even need to use their eyes to determine the other party's exact location.
A flash of steel, plunging into the black smoke.
Another shriek echoed from within. Lu Xia Tian extended his sleeve, and the black smoke lost control, being blown away by the wind stirred by Lu Xia Tian's finger. A monstrous creature, about a zhang tall, with a human head and an octopus body, fell out from inside. Besides several severed tentacles, other tentacles lay limply on the ground. Its head bore a fist-sized sword wound, inflicted by the fatal strike just now.
Wow! The small sword inside the transparent orb trembled again, transforming back into eight flying swords.
Lu Xiaitian's face turned pale. The small sword inside the transparent shield just now was the result of his tireless practice refining sword embryos over the past six months. It was a sword embryo condensed in a short period of time.
This shadowy Star Messenger could be slain with his ethereal sword array, though it would take considerable time. The opponent's mysterious identity and the powerful organization backing them made Lu Xia Tian hesitant to provoke a conflict. He chose instead to forcefully merge his eight flying swords into one, using the sword embryo to confront the enemy.
In fact, the power of Jian Tai also pleased Lu Xia Tian quite a bit. Of course, the price was not small either. Just now, with a few sword techniques, Lu Xia Tian felt that half of his internal mana had been drained. If he simply used the sword array to fight the enemy, it would take some time to kill this black-clothed star envoy, and the consumption of mana would only be one or two percent. Moreover, in the process of killing the enemy, he could also recover a part of his mana.
While wielding the Jiantai against enemies, its power is indeed formidable. However, the rate of mana recovery pales in comparison to the consumption. Unless absolutely necessary, Lu Xiaonain would never resort to this method. As a Yuan Ying cultivator, once one's internal mana depletes excessively, it becomes an extremely perilous situation, especially in environments that lack security.
"Huh" Lu XiaTian was slightly loosening up when he suddenly sensed a faint fluctuation of magical energy. Under the moonlight, in the void, a slender figure suddenly appeared. He reached out to grab the strange corpse of the black-clad star envoy.
“Another instance of that mysterious concealment technique,” Lu Xia Tian’s pupils constricted, naturally recognizing who the arrival was.
>
“If you want to play the role of a yellow sparrow taking flight behind others, you’d better make sure you have the ability to do so.”
Lu Xia Tian let out a cold snort, his body disappearing from its original spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the opponent. With a sweep of his hand, he collected the corpse of the black-clothed star envoy entirely.
"I never expected you to chase after Xiang Guo all the way from the secret realm. And you've even learned this instant teleportation technique. Your strength is even greater than before." A slender figure appeared, it was Wei Chi Yu who had been tortured by the black-robed star using the magic planet earlier and left. The other party had a gloomy face, their sinister eyes scanning over Lu Xia Tian.
"Your skill of concealment is indeed unique. I never would have thought you'd have the audacity to return after leaving."
Lu Xia Tian smiled calmly, his expression relaxed, but his divine sense was subtly released outwards, fully on guard. On the surface, he appeared relaxed, but inwardly he thought to himself, "Fortunately! If it weren't for a stroke of luck that allowed me to break the secret of the instant mirror and learn this teleportation technique, I would have been caught by him. Even using the Zi Xiao Fire Escape Technique wouldn't be as swift as this teleportation method."
Lu Xiaotian suddenly realized that the other party might have already discovered his whereabouts, otherwise how could they use this method to hide their figure and come over. They wanted to take advantage of the battle between him and the black-clothed star envoy.
Just now, I took action myself. The other party confirmed my identity through the ethereal flying sword. After all, the ethereal sword formation is not something anyone can have, it's so powerful. Wei Chi Yu has tried this sword formation before, so he couldn't possibly forget how formidable it was.
>ts fill of blood. As for whether you can take the Thunderlight Armor, that depends on your own abilities.""Of course, I've thought it through. The blood offerings I provided before were insufficient,...
