Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 370 - 66 Immortal Venerate Xie Massacres in All Directions
Chapter 370: Chapter 66 Immortal Venerate Xie Massacres in All Directions
The atmosphere in the live stream had already reached a boiling point.
Although the feed was playing footage from a minute ago, the audience still felt the excitement and tension of witnessing a miracle unfold. Many of them had never even heard the name “Xie Ruoxi” before, so as soon as it was mentioned by the commentator, everyone’s first reaction was to hastily search the internet.
As more and more viewers who had searched “Who is Xie Ruoxi?” came back to inform the others. The dominant comments in the live stream quickly evolved:
An unknown female Cultivator instantly kills an enemy upon encounter!
Xie Ruoxi of the Zhenhai Team, using sword technique to kill another enemy!
Xie Ruoxi, the upcoming General of Lu Country’s Zhenhai Team, uses Thunder Method to blast two more enemies to death!
...
Xie Ruoxi, the newly appointed Immortal Venerate of Lu Country, contemptuously asks the opponents if they need her to hold back, her imposing aura suppressing everyone in the vicinity!
Meanwhile, Xie Ruoxi had no idea about the commotion outside; She just continued to stand there with her hands behind her back, remaining cool and brash while secretly running her True Yuan to its limits, rapidly refining the remaining medicinal strength.
Because her talent for cultivation was rare in the world, she refined it faster than ordinary people. The dangerously low True Yuan was quickly recovering, as if a dam within her Dantian was releasing water.
The two facing her showed hesitation in their expressions, unsure of what to do at the moment.
Master Sato Hiroshi’s command was “Stop her.” Taking it literally meant that as long as they were standing in front of her, preventing her from attacking, it could be said that they had indeed stopped her, buying Sato Hiroshi time to continue repairing the seal.
But based on their understanding of Sato Hiroshi’s character, what he probably meant was “hurry up and deal with her,” which meant they should actually be attacking her by now.
The problem was, could they win?
The opponent had annihilated four members of the second squad without a scratch, which meant her strength was clearly close to that of a Demon King level, if not there already.
We’re not afraid of death; if we rush in and then get killed by her, the Master will have no one to guard him! It would be better to stand our ground, intimidating the opponent and deterring any attack…
Sato Hiroshi was hurrying to repair the last phase of the seal. After the recent combined infusion of spiritual power, Liu Longtao, trapped inside the Myojin Gate Talisman, was finally at a disadvantage, and no matter how wildly he bombarded and destroyed, the seal was gradually becoming more secure.
Yet when he looked up after a brief moment of repair, his two guards were standing there doing nothing. Sato Hiroshi immediately shouted:
“What are you waiting for!”
Sighing inwardly, the samurai Takahashi whispered to his comrade Watanabe:
“I’ll charge at her to distract her, you do the long-range attacks.”
“Okay.” Understanding the formidable attack power of the opponent, the Onmyoji Watanabe knew that if left uncontrolled and allowed to bombard at will, they might be wiped out instantly.
Taking a deep breath, Takahashi charged towards Xie Ruoxi with his sword drawn.
In the current phase, samurai without the means to increase their speed lacked any secret techniques for it. Therefore, Takahashi relied solely on his physical strength to sprint, and although his speed was also award-winning in the Olympics, it was completely inadequate in Xie Ruoxi’s eyes.
She simply used Shifting Technique to back away while drawing a Sword technique, directing the Heavenly Origin Sword towards her opponents.
“The opponent isn’t using Thunder Clap. Is she holding back deliberately?” Takahashi thought to himself. “True to a Demon King level figure from Lu Country, I must also show the same respect in swordsmanship.”
He stopped swiftly, steadied himself, took a deep breath, concentrated all his strength, took aim at the Flying Sword, swung with both hands, and shouted silently.
Kasaya Slash!
A streak of cold light sliced across, colliding violently with the Heavenly Origin Sword, creating a thunderous sound.
The Flying Sword was forced back half a step, but Takahashi, in his horse stance, didn’t retreat a single step. His heels, however, were wedged firmly into the ground, carving out a half-meter long trench from the sheer force.
Xie Ruoxi’s True Yuan was already incredibly powerful, and she was known for using a heavy sword known for its brute strength. That the opposition could counter her with swordsmanship had caught her off guard.
Not even our team leader has beaten me in a direct swordsmanship confrontation!
However, at this moment she was still secretly recovering her True Yuan, naturally happy to engage with the least costly Sword Control Technique, therefore she only showed a marginally approving expression and said indifferently:
“Not bad, not bad. Your swordsmanship, to me, is like the light of a firefly compared to the bright moon, but the fact that you can shine even a faint light in this world means you deserve a moment’s glance from me, be grateful.”
Although Takahashi did not understand what she was saying, his talent for reading the room kicked in, and he said solemnly in the language of the Sakura Empire:
“You flatter me.”
Watanabe behind him was also speechless. How could you even chat with an enemy?
Seeing that the enemy did not attack him, he quickly took out three talisman papers, which burst into flame in his hands.
Three prajna ogres materialized from the void and leaped out, one with a laughing face, one red-faced, and one white-faced, all three splitting up and charging towards Xie Ruoxi.
Xie Ruoxi, whose True Yuan had not fully returned, was frightened by the sight of the three prajna ogres and, disregarding the need to hide her strength any longer, she was already forming the Jade Pivot Thunder in her hand.
I’ll fight!
Watanabe commanded the prajna ogre to dodge the Thunder Method and continue the charge, with the red prajna being the fastest and most fierce. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of Ruoxi, stretching out its hand to grab her head, but then its body was blown to pieces by the thunder method.
Xie Ruoxi had nearly been torn apart by the red prajna, and in a moment of life-or-death crisis, her thoughts whirled and inspiration flashed through her mind:
These prajna ogres are fast, and my long-range casting isn’t very accurate; it would be better to avoid them for now and focus on their Onmyoji master first. But the Onmyoji is standing too far away; the thunder light won’t reach him in time, so I should use the faster Sword Control Technique. The Heavenly Origin Sword is currently entangled with the Samurai, so I must first take care of the Samurai…
Ugh, what a headache! My mind isn’t sharp enough to bother with this!
Xie Ruoxi, becoming fierce, simply bypassed the prajna ogres and charged directly at the Samurai, Takahashi.
Takahashi was in the midst of exchanging blows with the Heavenly Origin Sword and, seeing Ruoxi herself charging over, he had an epiphany that this was his last moment in life and smiled:
“Life comes with death, a warrior regrets nothing!”
He raised his sword as if to strike, but was then killed by a blast of Heavenly Thunder.
With the Heavenly Origin Sword freed, it immediately went after Watanabe, the Onmyoji in the distance.
Watanabe hastily called for the fastest laughing prajna to come to his aid. Halfway through the charge, another thunder method struck from behind, blasting the laughing prajna into pieces. With the path cleared, the Heavenly Origin Sword ruthlessly struck down towards Watanabe, smashing his skull to bits. The surviving shikigami, the white prajna, let out a cry and immediately vanished without a trace.
Takahashi died first, followed by Watanabe, with no more than five seconds between them. Sato Hiroshi had not even had the chance to react. How could both men fighting their opponent have perished in a single second?
Seeing Xie Ruoxi look over, Sato Hiroshi was suddenly terrified and wanted to stop casting to face the enemy. But if he stopped managing the ritual, Liu Longtao would surely break the seal and escape from the Myojin Gate Talisman. Caught between two difficult choices, he didn’t know what to do.
Xie Ruoxi, however, didn’t care about that much, her Immortal Venerate airs not yet put away, and she sighed and shook her head out of habit:
“Ah, is this all there is? I haven’t fully enjoyed myself yet… Oh well, time to send you on your way.”
She formed the Jade Pivot and Heavenly Thunder in her left and right hands, respectively, and casually struck at Sato Hiroshi.
What else could Sato Hiroshi do but interrupt the spiritual supply to the Myojin Gate Talisman and hastily perform the Substitution Straw Man Technique… only to be half a moment too late and get struck by thunder on both sides, his body immediately reduced to ashes from the dual thunder assault.
The two pillars of the Myojin Gate were also completely destroyed by the thunder. Liu Longtao finally escaped from his confinement, his figure revealed, veins popping on his forehead, and he roared angrily:
“Damn it, those damned Onmyoji bastards die… huh?”
He saw bodies scattered all around; the Onmyoji were all lying dead on the ground, while Xie Ruoxi put her hands behind her back again and said with composure:
“Why did it take you so long to break free? Never mind, they were just some minor nuisances; I’ve already taken care of them. Go rest for a bit.”
Liu Longtao: …………..
When had the stout men of Pingjing ever suffered such humiliation? Realizing what had transpired during his sealing and recalling the whole event was live-streamed to the entire nation, he was suddenly overwhelmed with an urge to cry.
