Chapter 516
On the bridge, Peacock asked, "Liang Cangxu, which Heavenly King of the Tenryū Sect do you belong to?
To be honest, I have never heard of any Heavenly King who is proficient in Sword Qi. "
"If I say I am the disciple of Sakra, would you believe me?"
"What is there not to believe?
But, Sakra … "
"Mastering one technique, mastering all techniques, mastering all techniques, nothing is impossible. Don't you think so, Master Kong?"
Peacock was helpless, she smiled and said, "Since you have said so, I cannot kill you. If Lord Sakra is angered, it is not something a small disciple of the Incense Cult like me can bear.
Then, I will take you and let my master deal with you. "
After that, the green sword radiance on the flexible sword became even brighter. Like before, she floated over and slashed at Liang Cangxu. This was what Qin Shiyue had done previously.
Liang Cangxu did not show any weakness. He swung his two swords and the red Sword Qi followed along with the swords to meet the attack.
Thus, the green sword radiance and the red Sword Qi clashed together again.
At this moment, the entire scene was even more beautiful. Not only were the green-clothed man and the white-clothed fairy flying back and forth above the suspension bridge, even the red blade aura and the green sword aura were radiating brilliance. They would occasionally collide with each other. However, at this moment, there was no longer a "ding dang" sound like before. Instead, there was a "ci ci" sound.
"Sword Qi?"
Zhang Xiaohua, who was hiding in the valley, nodded his head. The longsword was called Sword Ray, and the steel blade was called Saber Aura. It was a fitting name. Furthermore, Zhang Xiaohua could tell with his divine sense that the power of the Sword Ray and Saber Aura was stronger than before. Even the sound of air being sliced could be heard. He could easily tell that the martial arts of these two people had reached a level rarely seen in Jianghu.
Until now, although Zhang Xiaohua knew that the sword radiance and Sword Qi were extremely powerful skills, but as to how powerful they were, she was still confused. Although Nie Qianyu and Valley Master Nie had told her before, but it was all hearsay. She did not really understand. So, watching the two fight, she felt that it was much more powerful than before. But why would it become something that people in Jianghu would change their faces when talking about it, she could not figure it out.
On the bridge, Peacock and Liang Cangxu were evenly matched. After fighting for almost half a day, there was no clear winner. But, in Zhang Xiaohua's mind, she could see that the Sword Qi on Liang Cangxu's steel sword had dimmed. It seemed to be fading away. Maybe it was because of the lack of internal energy.
Although Liang Cangxu had been trying to feign a way to escape from the battle and find an opportunity to consume the Pill, Peacock was also scheming. She kept on fighting and did not give him the opportunity to do so.
Therefore, after the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Liang Cangxu was not paying attention and Peacock's soft sword pierced through his green robes, piercing a large hole in it. When Peacock was about to slash at his waist, Liang Cangxu hurriedly raised his steel saber in an attempt to block it. At this time, the saber aura on the steel saber was already thin, and when the two weapons clashed, there was a crisp sound, like a piece of paper being torn apart, and the steel saber was actually cut in two.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua frowned. In the fight just now, both of their swords had clashed several times and there was no damage. Even when the Sword Qi and Sword Qi were at their peak, it was not like this. Now that the Sword Qi was fading, it was broken by the Sword Qi. Could it be that the Sword Qi's power lay in its sharpness?
Was it indestructible?
Sure enough, Liang Cangxu saw that the steel sword was destroyed and was shocked. With a wave of his hand, he threw the broken sword at Peacock like a hidden weapon. At the same time, he exerted force on his feet and flew towards the other end of the suspension bridge.
Peacock saw the steel sword flying towards her and sneered. With a light wave of her soft sword, the steel sword was cut into two and fell into the empty valley.
Then, she too, used the secret Qinggong of the Cult of Incense and chased after him.
Seeing the two of them gradually disappear into the distance, Zhang Xiaohua frowned. He was willing to follow and watch the show but between the two mountains, there was only a suspension bridge. If he went over, he would be seen by others. If he used the Earth Burrowing Technique, the valley was very deep. If he went from the bottom of the valley to the top, it would take a lot of effort. Whether he should go or not, it was a very difficult question.
Thinking about this, Zhang Xiaohua released his consciousness to observe from afar.
But when he swept his consciousness over the opposite cliff, he was stunned.
It turned out that on the other side of the mountain, there were actually two young men dressed in green robes who were dressed similarly to Liang Cangxu. They were also holding two sabers in their hands, and there was a faint red saber aura on the surface of the sabers!
"This is bad!"
Zhang Xiaohua secretly groaned in his heart. Just now, he had only paid attention to the two people fighting on the cable bridge and had not paid attention to the other side. Moreover, looking at Liang Cangxu's behavior, he had thought that he had come alone. He did not know that Liang Cangxu had set up an ambush on the other side.
Zhang Xiaohua knew that if it was one on one, the three of them would not be Peacock's match. If it was two on one, Peacock might be able to escape. But if it was three on one, Peacock would not even have the chance to escape.
It must be said that the three of them were very clear about the strength of the Cult of Incense.
Should he call Peacock back?
Seeing that Peacock was about to reach the Northern Ocean, Zhang Xiaohua hesitated. It was too late for him to go back and inform the Cult of Incense's disciples. Besides, how was he going to tell them?
Even if he called Peacock back now, they might not listen. After all, he was just an apprentice of the Cult of Incense. Yes, an apprentice who got in through the back door.
"Sigh, it can only be me. Oh, it's me, Shaoxia. No, it's me, the apprentice."
Zhang Xiaohua smacked his lips, a little proud. "This inner disciple of the Cult of Incense needs the help of a little apprentice like me. Hehe, how arrogant."
With that thought, he formed a hand seal and burrowed into the depths of the cliff.
Peacock and Liang Cangxu took the shortcut by using a rope bridge. Zhang Xiaohua had to take the longer route to cover his tracks. He first burrowed from the peak to the bottom of the valley, then from one end of the valley to the other, then from the bottom of the valley to the peak. The whole process was to practice burrowing through the earth. Of course, he could also use the levitation technique at the bottom of the valley. But there was the danger of being discovered by the Cult of Incense's disciples at the peak. It was better to just burrow into the ground.
The valley was unusually deep. Zhang Xiaohua took a long time to reach the bottom of the valley. Releasing his consciousness to determine the direction, Zhang Xiaohua continued burrowing towards the opposite side.
But just as Zhang Xiaohua was about to reach the bottom of the valley, there was a sudden change.
Zhang Xiaohua who was burrowing through the earth suddenly saw a bright light. He appeared in an extremely narrow cave. The cave was on the path of Zhang Xiaohua's earth burrowing and Zhang Xiaohua's consciousness did not detect it!
Zhang Xiaohua who was standing in the middle of the cave was stunned. It was the first time he encountered someone burrowing into another person's cave. Naturally, he looked left and right.
This was a small cave that could only fit four to five people. The cave was illuminated by several fist-sized luminous pearls, allowing him to see clearly. When he took a closer look, Zhang Xiaohua could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Not far from him, there was a skeleton that was twice as tall as him standing there!
Zhang Xiaohua frowned. He did not go forward. Instead, he used his consciousness to scan the skeleton.
This should be a human skeleton. Well, Zhang Xiaohua had never seen a real human skeleton. But, two arms, two legs, and a head, it should be a human.
There was a faint fluctuation of energy coming from the bare fingers of the arm. Normally, Zhang Xiaohua would have gone forward and taken it for himself without hesitation. But, at this time, he was somewhat hesitant.
Because the fluctuation of energy was somewhat obscure. It was not the frequency that he was used to. Moreover, on the skull of the skeleton, there was a black hole that was bigger than a fist. It was as if it was pulled out by a hand. Of course, the prerequisite was that there was such a big hand.
Carefully observing the fluctuation in the skeleton's hand, one was a black jade slip and the other was a small red ring. Zhang Xiaohua had seen many jade slips, but it was the first time he saw a black jade slip. Moreover, the jade slip was faintly heart-shaped. Zhang Xiaohua had never seen the small ring. One side of the ring was a bright ring, and the other side was a ball-like thing. Upon closer inspection, it was somewhat in the shape of a flame.
To take or not to take?
Zhang Xiaohua scratched his head. But thinking of the anxious peacock above, there was not much time left for Zhang Xiaohua to hesitate. Moreover, if he saved the peacock, he would have to take the long way back to the carriage. He would definitely not have the time to come here to take these two items.
Thus, Zhang Xiaohua clenched his teeth, and with a wave of his hand, the pitch-black jade slip and fiery red ring flew directly into his hand. Just as the two items touched the skeleton's finger, the skeleton immediately collapsed and turned into ashes.
However, just as the skeleton fell to the ground, a black gas spread out from the skeleton and floated directly into the soil on the top of the cave. The moment the gas touched the soil, it immediately seeped into it. Then, the energy in the cave fluctuated greatly. The Luminous Pearl around the cave also flashed brilliantly. When Zhang Xiaohua looked carefully, he found that he was not standing in the previous cave that could only accommodate four or five people, but in a magnificent hall!
Zhang Xiaohua frowned. First, he thought for a while. Just now, he only held the jade slip and the ring in his hand. He did not feel his body move. It was only the black gas on the skeleton that caused this change. Then he looked at his hands. The jade slip and the ring were both in his hand. Could it be that he had encountered another array?
Immediately, Zhang Xiaohua naturally thought of the "Three Auspicious Treasures" array. He and Qin Shiyue had been trapped in it before and had experienced the changes in the array. They knew that what they saw in the array might not be real. So, Zhang Xiaohua first put the two items into his arms and then released his divine sense.
As soon as he released his divine sense, Zhang Xiaohua's face turned pale and he was shocked.
