This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 1591 - 49: One Sword East, One Sword West, Wuya Does Not Wish to Meet

Fuyou, the first sword strike killed an intermediate Demon Lord.

But it was far from just one sword.

The second sword, swiftly slashing down, targeted the second intermediate Demon Lord thousands of miles away.

Another strike, enemy slain, blood splattered across the sky.

The third sword, an invisible blade in the air, executed a swallow return, drawing an unseen yet beautiful arc, then turned to attack the third enemy Lu Qingshan sensed.

Three consecutive swords, with only a few breaths between each, including the time Fuyou returned to Lu Qingshan's side for a "recharge".

This reveals just how terrifyingly fast Lu Qingshan's flying sword speed truly is.

—Fuyou's Carry-Light Divine Ability not only doubles the flying sword's range but also increases its speed by fifty percent!

At this point, ten breaths had passed. Continuously releasing divine sense to detect the surroundings, that third enemy discovered the death of his two companions.

At this instant, his hair stood on end.

Although he couldn't find any trace of the enemy in his sight or divine sense, the death of his companions was undeniably real.

The Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator dared not harbor any illusions, immediately unleashing the Divine Demon Body he had painstakingly cultivated, its power vast, qi-blood roiling without end.

At the same time, he immediately sent a message to his companions, both for assistance and to remind them.

The Divine Demon Body unfolded, the Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator's hair and beard stood on end, his tiger eyes wide open, raising his vigilance to the highest level, surveying his surroundings.

He saw his companion's body pierced through, covered in blood. Although he didn't know what had killed him, he instinctively judged: it must have been by some kind of sharp weapon.

Therefore, the Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator deployed his Divine Demon Body, fully prepared in the physical realm but made no additional preparations for his Primordial Spirit.

He didn't realize that his thinking was flawed from the start.

Indeed, his two companions were pierced through by Fuyou, a deadly strike, but the real killing blow came from....

Primordial Spirit!

In a battle that changes in an instant, a flawed strategy spells a determined end.

If one cultivates the physical body, the Primordial Spirit would not be too strong; both are hard to perfect—this is a generally applicable rule for cultivators, except for a few "abnormal" ones—even Lu Qingshan, such an "abnormal", does not defy this rule.

His Primordial Spirit is strong, his cultivation is not weak, but his physical body is indeed unremarkable.

This Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator is not an abnormal figure, much less a protagonist, so his Primordial Spirit Realm is not high, far inferior to Lu Qingshan.

Furthermore, these days of nonstop patrolling and probing had truly worn him out, his state already subpar.

When he felt an impending sharpness, a streak of sword light preceded the sharpness, directly stabbing into the Demonic Cultivator's Primordial Spirit.

His mental state exhausted, how could he withstand Lu Qingshan's immensely powerful Secret Sword of Daily Sight?

Even though he was prepared, the fate of this Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator did not end much better than his two companions. After a scream, Fuyou passed through his chest, instantly destroying his internal organs.

The Northern Barbarian Demonic Cultivator's blood splattered on the scene as he fell from the sky.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

Why are Sword Cultivators considered natural born fighters?

The cultivation system of Sword Cultivators dictates that once they enter a battle, the pace becomes suffocatingly fast.

This kind of high-pressure combat often leads the enemy to a shattering end with just a slight misstep.

......

After killing three "preys" in a row, Lu Qingshan had no interest in lingering in battle. Retrieving Fuyou, he immediately started swiftly moving underwater to change his position.

Within just three or four breaths of his movement, dozens of radiances flew in from all directions.

Among them were both Demonic Cultivators and Taoist Cultivators.

Their divine senses burst forth vigorously, everything within thousands of miles around fell into their perception, yet no anomaly was detected.

...

After another half a quarter of an hour, two incomparably powerful auras approached from east and west, floating above the area patrolled by the three fallen intermediate Demon Lords.

Within the mighty auras were Dao Wuya and Qian Venerable, their faces colder and gloomier than ice and snow.

Once the ambush line was formed, Dao Wuya no longer put up a pretense, rapidly coming to this place, patrolling along the ambush line with Qian Venerable.

Because, with Lu Qingshan's combat power, ordinary Demonic Cultivators were simply no match for him. As soon as his traces were discovered, the nearby companions must immediately gather to hold him off and then send messages to notify Qian Venerable and Dao Wuya.

Then, the two of them would quickly rush to where Lu Qingshan appeared.

In order to increase the probability of appearing near Lu Qingshan, Dao Wuya and Qian Venerable did not wait idly at one point but moved systematically.

As soon as they arrived, like everyone else, they deployed their divine senses to scan the area back and forth, but like everyone else, they found nothing.

"Who was it? Lu Qingshan?" Qian Venerable was uncertain.

Dao Wuya looked at the corpses of the three intermediate Demon Lords and judged: "These wounds were clearly caused by a Sword Cultivator's flying sword, most likely it's him."

Qian Venerable said deliberately: "If it really was him, how did he evade our all-encompassing divine sense surveillance?"

"And, if it really was him, does that mean he has already broken through our ambush line, rendering us two factions' grand mobilization, which was so intent on a victory, to end with such an anticlimax?" Qian Venerable concealed his inner anger.

Dao Wuya remained silent.

The fact is if the attacker was Lu Qingshan, then their ambush plan had already failed, and by now Lu Qingshan should have already embarked on his journey back to Heavenly River City.
