System's Super Sect-Chapter 664 - 661. Magic VS Vein Technique, Immortal Sect VS Jiyang Sect
The Celestial Demon Sword unsheathed, carving a pale blue streak across the sky.
Like lightning suddenly slicing through a clear sky.
Then, the Celestial Demon Sword charged directly into the crowd, swiftly striking towards the young man of Middle Profound Realm who was just assigned to tackle Huai Ye and Qin Mo, aiming straight at his forehead.
With a clear intent to take his life.
In the rookie battle, life and death are disregarded.
However, to avoid unnecessary conflicts and maintain harmony within the organized alliance, major powers rarely go as far as actually claiming lives.
But in Huai Ye’s eyes, everyone from the Hundred Sects Alliance is an enemy.
Towards enemies, the sharpness of the Celestial Demon Sword shows no restraint.
As soon as the Celestial Demon Sword arrives, cries of alarm erupt!
"What the hell is this thing?"
The young man of Middle Profound Realm, seeing the Celestial Demon Sword coming towards him, was taken aback and quickly retreated.
However, upon focusing and realizing it was controlled by Huai Ye of Lower Profound Realm, he immediately discarded his initial terror, his Meridian Gate trembling, followed by Vein Qi forming a shield, then hastily retrieving a sword from the Storage Ring to try to block the flying sword.
Standing in front of the young man of Middle Profound Realm were two others of Upper Profound Realm. Though they sensed the fierce killing intent of the Celestial Demon Sword, they, like the first, did not care much. As the Celestial Demon Sword swept past, they tried to deflect it with their swords.
However, upon realizing their speed could not match the flying sword, their expressions changed.
Both of their swords missed!
The Celestial Demon Sword, in the blink of an eye, was upon the young man of Middle Profound Realm.
The shield formed by Vein Qi was effortlessly pierced through, the Celestial Demon Sword fully embedded and then penetrated his arm.
Puff!
Blood spurted.
The young man of Middle Profound Realm screamed in pain, his whole body carried by the Celestial Demon Sword for a circle in the air, then smashed onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Thud!
He Ping and the four others were stunned.
The spectators were also stunned.
What kind of Vein Technique is this?
Right at the start, one of He Ping’s side was already injured!
However, He Ping’s four were unlike the spectators who could stand calmly and express amazement, as the Fire Dragon came charging as well. Initially wanting to confront and break the Fire Dragon directly, He Ping halted.
Before he could speak, the red-shirted youth beside him rushed forward.
Bam!
As the Meridian Gate trembled, the sword in his hand executed the First Form.
This person was named Yuan Bian.
Precisely the second-in-command in He Ping’s team.
years old, Upper Profound Realm, ranks highly among the rookies—within the top thousand.
After being startled by Huai Ye’s Vein Technique earlier, seeing his own man injured, he felt thoroughly annoyed and coldly snorted: "Petty tricks."
Yuan Bian thought he must break the Vein Technique released by Qin Mo.
Otherwise, all the spotlight at the start would belong to the Immortal Sect.
In his mind, the domineering Fire Attribute Anomalous Vein, or Fire Attribute Vein Skill, was always about the flame’s temperature being the higher, the stronger the Vein Technique released.
But the flame released by Qin Mo was already near, yet he felt no heat at all.
Correspondingly, the Fire Attribute Anomalous Vein was always about the flame’s temperature being higher, releasing the Vein Technique more dominantly.
So to break it, Yuan Bian merely initiated the First Form of a Yellow Level Top-Grade Vein Skill.
The sword rose, sweeping up a breeze.
Within the breeze, blue Sword Qi danced wildly, accompanying the sword’s rise, wrapped in wind charging at the Fire Dragon.
Yet as Yuan Bian’s released Sword Qi entered the Fire Dragon’s forehead, it was directly incinerated.
Not only failed to tear the Fire Dragon apart but produced no effect whatsoever.
The Fire Dragon’s speed remained unchanged!
Directly rushing towards Yuan Bian.
He Ping’s face changed instantly, then lifted the sword in his hand, the Meridian Gate behind him trembled.
Bam!
The sword light immediately fell like bright moonlight, descending along with the sword’s dance.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Impacting the Fire Dragon, still like needles falling into the sea.
Boom!
The Fire Dragon did not give He Ping and his partners a third chance to attack, exploding directly as it neared them.
Fiery red flames spread instantly, transforming the vicinity within tens of meters into a sea of fire.
The flames raged fiercely, but amidst the clamor, cries of pain could be heard, "How is this fire so tyrannical!"
Thud!
He Ping and the four others rushed into the flames.
But their originally black hair suffered, entirely burnt away. Under the sun’s rays, the four bald heads were particularly noticeable. As for their clothes, due to different material, they did not burn entirely, yet appeared quite bedraggled upon their swift exit.
Some had half a sleeve burned off.
Some of them only had a sleeve left on their upper clothes.
Just like their clothing and hair, their spirit bodies were equally in disarray.
Just moments ago, He Ping and the others felt their spirit body’s energy suddenly being consumed significantly.
In other words, the spirit body, to avoid severe damage, had actually drawn a large amount of energy to resist that scorching temperature.
At the same time, the four of them didn’t notice that the youth in the Middle Profound Realm didn’t manage to escape the sea of flames.
After the sea of flames created by the explosion of the Fire Dragon Skill disappeared, the youth in the Middle Profound Realm was nowhere to be seen.
Only a sword remained!
Since the Fire Dragon Skill wasn’t purely Hellfire, it didn’t instantly melt the sword.
Yuan Bian was a bit confused by this scene.
"How can these two Lower Profound Realm individuals release such terrifying Vein Techniques?"
"Could it be that they have cultivated a Profound Level Upper Grade Vein Skill?"
...
The four of them looked at Huai Ye and Qin Mo, their eyes finally showing a deep sense of dread.
This Immortal Sect team is no simple matter!
At this moment, seeing the first round of attacks had been effective, Lin Kewu spoke up: "Huai Ye, Qin Mo, continue attacking. Follow the line of thinking the Sect Leader mentioned, focus on harassment. It would be best if you could inflict injuries, but if not, just disrupt them."
After speaking, Lin Kewu proceeded forward.
The formation of the five of them, as Wen Ping had reminded, remained tight-knit and did not break apart despite He Ping’s side losing one person, maintaining their original posture.
Lin Kewu knew clearly that although the first probe allowed them to gain the upper hand and successfully reduced the opponent by one, the remaining four were all in the Upper Profound Realm. Compared to them, his own side’s lineup was still somewhat inferior.
The outcome was still not that obvious.
As Lin Kewu moved, Lu Jiang and Lu Xue snapped back to their senses, quickly putting away their deep astonishment at the sudden enhancement of the Fire Dragon Skill and Sword Control Skill, hurriedly asking Lin Kewu, "Should we try to take down one person forcibly first?"
In their hearts, the three from the Immortal Sect had become the backbone of the team!
Middle Profound Realm.
Lower Profound Realm.
The issue of realm was completely ignored.
Lin Kewu shook his head, "No need, just charge with this formation. Lu Xue, once we’re in front of them, you’re responsible for attacking from their side, or looking for an opportunity to get behind them. Huai Ye, Qin Mo will support you. Huai Ye, the two of you fall back, try not to move more than twenty zhang away from me."
Everyone nodded and proceeded as Lin Kewu arranged, in an orderly fashion.
Lu Jiang and Lu Xue engaged in close combat directly.
Two against four, and the pressure came crashing down immediately.
Huai Ye and Qin Mo began to fall back.
To reduce the pressure on Lu Jiang and Lu Xue, the two of them continued using the Fire Dragon Skill and Sword Control Skill during their retreat without stopping their attacks.
The Fire Dragon kept swimming among the four of them, repeatedly using its head and tail to attack the Jiyang Sect members.
The Celestial Demon Sword also relentlessly stabbed at several people.
The Defensive Vein Skill, in front of the Celestial Demon Sword, was nothing, instantly pierced through.
All the four of them could do was dodge.
Because He Ping was slightly slow in dodging while defending against the Fire Dragon Pearl, the Celestial Demon Sword grazed his arm, directly slicing through the spirit body.
Though the spirit bodies of the Jiyang Sect weren’t as sturdy in defense as the Xia Family’s Barbaric Demon Spirit Bodies, they were not ranked low on the Spirit Body Ranking.
A single sword could so easily cut through flesh.
Just imagine if it couldn’t be avoided, and directly pierced the chest...
He Ping realized that this team was not as simple as it appeared.
This Lower Profound Realm, far exceeded this Lower Profound Realm!
Both their Vein Techniques and weapons were top-tier in Heaven and Earth Lake.
"Let’s take those two down first! We can’t immediately inflict severe damage on Lu Jiang and Lu Xue, but those two Lower Profound Realm disciples from the Immortal Sect can hurt us." He Ping quickly directed the people beside him and charged over, raising his sword, a wall of Sword Qi forming directly in front of the two of them, blocking the sweeping Fire Dragon tail.
Yuan Bian nodded, quickly darting to one side.
Creating some distance on one side, attempting to find an opportunity to approach Huai Ye and Qin Mo from behind.
As Yuan Bian left, He Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter if Qin Mo, Huai Ye used that Fire Dragon or that flying sword to hinder Yuan Bian’s approach, it was a great relief for him and his teammates. If the formation wasn’t disrupted, the situation could be opened up.
As long as Yuan Bian reached the front of Qin Mo and Huai Ye, with the two of them’s realms, they couldn’t hold for long.
The current Fire Dragon, and that flying sword, made things difficult for them, and they couldn’t focus on dealing with the Vein Techniques released by Lu Jiang. If Huai Ye and Qin Mo used Vein Techniques to hinder Yuan Bian’s approach, that would be even better.
Not only could the situation be opened, but the advantage of originally four against five could also be reversed once again.
Yuan Bian could hold Qin Mo and Huai Ye for a while without a problem.
After Yuan Bian created some distance, seeing that the sword and the Fire Dragon didn’t pursue him, he was overjoyed.
Bang!
His feet suddenly stomped the ground, shooting out like a cannon!
The Meridian Gate trembled, and with the long sword in hand, his body and sword turned into a white shadow, slicing through the swirling Sword Qi like flower petals, directly toward Huai Ye and Qin Mo. The distance of twenty zhang was covered in an instant.
Lin Kewu grabbed the Fire Rod and rushed to meet him.
"Middle Profound Realm, you want to stop me? This is the Profound Level Lower Grade Vein Skill One-Point Sword. Although it’s only at minor success, it’s not something a Middle Profound Realm can block." Yuan Bian’s aura surged, his Sword Qi coalescing from its majestic state into a single point, right at the sword’s tip.
"If you’re seeking death, don’t blame me!"
With that said, the sword was already before Lin Kewu’s eyes!
