This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 522 - 33: Who Ambushed Whom?
Chapter 522: Chapter 33: Who Ambushed Whom?
The distance between the two had shrunk to only six hundred zhang.
According to the rules of the Cultivation World, when cultivators are at this distance, they should actively move to avoid each other, showing that they harbor no ill intentions.
Gui Yuan True Venerable did just that.
His figure was veering to the right.
Lu Qingshan, as if in tacit understanding, moved aside to avoid in the opposite direction.
Seeing this, Gui Yuan True Venerable’s face remained expressionless, but inside, he sneered without end.

...
In his dantian, the black Yin Sha Sword was already itching to move.
At this moment, he was approaching Lu Qingshan with a confrontational stance.
Head-on confrontation meant that the distance between them was closing at double speed and that if someone made a move, the other person’s reaction time would be halved.
Not to mention, he was a Sword Cultivator, known for launching fast and fierce attacks.
With such a deliberate ambush, if all went smoothly, a single sword strike could decapitate Lu Qingshan, allowing him to escape with his life.
Gui Yuan True Venerable had already calculated everything in his heart.
Just as his figure was veering to the right, Gui Yuan True Venerable let out a low shout.
“Sword, out!”
Boom!
The black Yin Sha Sword, in an instant, exhaled black Sword Qi and burst out from his dantian.
A streak of black light exploded in the sky, ready to greet Lu Qingshan.
“You clever boy, let me show you what it means to be treacherously cunning!” With the sword already on its way, Gui Yuan True Venerable no longer concealed his intent, and cackled sinisterly at Lu Qingshan.
However, the moment the Sword Light exploded, when Gui Yuan True Venerable’s gaze lifted, what he saw was not Lu Qingshan’s panicked expression, but a dazzling and bright Sword Qi.
A cry rang out, and after that Sword Qi struck him, it suddenly turned into a myxoid rhinoceros, charging directly into his body with the single horn on its forehead.
Then he felt a stabbing pain in his mind, as if a bomb had exploded in his sea of consciousness.
In his dazed state, he heard three explosive sounds.
Crimson, emerald, and mazarine, three brilliant streams of Sword Light, firmly locked onto his body.
“Who’s ambushing whom here?” A flicker of confusion passed through Gui Yuan True Venerable’s mind.
How had his well-planned ambush not yet commenced, yet he was already struck first by the opposing Sword Cultivator?
…
On a narrow path, the brave wins when cultivators face off, especially when both cultivators are Sword Cultivators known for their speed, what’s put to the test is courage, judgment, speed… and who strikes first.
Gui Yuan True Venerable had prepared for an ambush and launched an attack at the most appropriate time.
Lu Qingshan’s timing, however, happened to be just a fraction faster than Gui Yuan True Venerable.
But it was this fraction that allowed him to seize the initiative!
The brief advantage gained was not enough for Lu Qingshan to employ many techniques; his choice was to unleash three swords at once.
Three streams of Sword Light, two in front and one behind, with the front ones being the Taoist Artifacts Dragon Sparrow and Oblivion, the rear being the Peach Blossom.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Fast, incredibly fast!
Lu Qingshan’s Perfection Realm Slaughter Sword Intent, for the first time, was displayed in front of others.
Moreover, it was that Slaughter Sword Intent evolved by the Immortal True Intent.
The Slaughter Sword Intent, which had reached Perfection, could only have its power break through its limits and climb to greater heights through the enhancement of Primordial Intent.
Under the double enhancement, the Flying Sword Speed unleashed by Lu Qingshan through the Taoist Artifact was…
Seventy-five times the speed of sound!
Flying Sword Speed, one of the rigid indicators for Inner Sword Cultivation, is the hardest to improve.
Nobody dared to imagine that a Nascent Soul Early Stage Sword Cultivator’s Flying Sword Speed could reach such an extent.
Gui Yuan True Venerable dared not either.
As a Void Refining Late Stage Sword Cultivator, regardless of the specific power of his Flying Sword, its speed alone hovered around seventy times the speed of sound.
Nevertheless, Lu Qingshan’s Flying Sword had already arrived.
The Dragon Sparrow was invasive as fire, Oblivion surged like a tide.
Barely regaining his senses, Gui Yuan True Venerable could only hastily change tactics, with the black Yin Sha Sword and the white Yang Sha Sword, doing his utmost to defend against Lu Qingshan’s two Flying Swords in front of him.
Peril abounded.
The four Flying Swords chased and collided within a space of ten zhang in front of Gui Yuan True Venerable, carving arcs in the air resembling crescent moons or half-moons.
Because of the incredible speed, the four Flying Swords trailed long flames behind them, forming a twist of traces in the air, like four Qiu Dragons, and the visual effect was extremely beautiful.
“Void Refining Cultivators really can’t be underestimated; to raise one’s sword in an emergency and still defend so tightly that not even water could seep through,” Lu Qingshan muttered.
At that moment, his third Life-bound Sword finally joined the battle.
Gui Yuan True Venerable’s heart tightened, preparing to respond, but found that his preparations were in vain.
Because upon its arrival, that Flying Sword suddenly came to a halt.
The role of Peach Blossom… was not to lead the attack.
Its purpose was to bring Lu Qingshan close to Gui Yuan True Venerable.
Indeed, Lu Qingshan had closed the distance.
In the fleeting moment of close-quarters, he had also done one more thing.
