Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect
Chapter 1173 - 585: Clinging to Life, Fearing Death
Possessed?
Chen Xuantian stood up with a solemn expression. After all, he had watched Tang Xian’er be resurrected by the Netherworld Spring up close, so today’s situation wasn’t entirely unexpected...
But seriously, did this Old Demon of Netherworld Spring actually wait for him for a thousand years in this life? No way, aren’t you being a bit petty?
"You got it right, I am petty!"
Tang Xian’er—no, Youquan Fairy—walked out of the ancestral hall with slow steps, delivering a flying kick. The black water instantly transformed into a long sword, slicing straight towards Chen Xuantian’s leg!
Chen Xuantian didn’t say a word, flipping his sword flower, swirling the brilliant light, unsheathing the Dragon Abyss Tiger Blade, forming a sword flower! The sword shadow fluttered, shattering the countless waves and water curtains!
Youquan Fairy didn’t waste a moment on unnecessary words, launching a relentless and fierce fast attack, utilizing the Martial God Body Technique to the fullest, sprinting and accelerating in the pond, performing an instant body sprint, using Fist Gang Palm Wind to unleash a series of powerful strikes, slashing the water and charging ferociously!
Chen Xuantian’s sword style remained unfazed, impervious to splashes, twisting with the Longyuan Blade to deflect the Sword Gang’s edge, while using the Tiger Blade Sword Strike to shatter the Fist Wind. The two exchanged moves through the air, clashing Gang Qi, exchanging sword energy, chasing and pursuing around the pond like playing tennis, entangled in an undecided duel.
"Oh, your fundamentals aren’t bad, huh."
Youquan Fairy clearly was just warming up, his limbs stretching and extending knives, unleashing Qi Power with random strikes, obviously adapting to the new Dao Body, testing the limits of his force. Occasionally, he would unleash a punch so powerful it could tear his muscles, witnessing the terrifying power of Youquan, even the Martial Deity’s body couldn’t sustain his usage.
Of course, breaking muscles didn’t matter—after all, the pieces could be reassembled before, simply disassemble the arm, cleanse it in the Netherworld Spring, twist it back, and the entire arm would swell like a gorilla’s, the fist force naturally more precise and fierce.
"Old Ancestor, don’t be angry~~ I genuinely admire you, tirelessly crossing mountains and rivers, truly here to pay homage to you, sincerely~~"
Chen Xuantian smirked, stirring up a wave of Xuanming Sword Qi in counterattack, yet to no avail.
After all, the Netherworld Spring beneath appeared as water but was actually brine, muddy, turbid, salty, and dark. To the Old Demon of Netherworld Spring, it seemed to provide nourishment like bodily fluid amniotic fluid—rejuvenating, sculpting, and rebirthing. Soaking longer would likely erase human form, getting stronger with each soak, getting stronger and stronger—absolutely absurd.
But to Chen Xuantian, such a Qi Refiner, it felt like a swampy quagmire, heavy and murky. His Xuanming Sword Qi couldn’t stir a single ripple, let alone enhance with the Heavenly Dao. Though not to the point of non-function, the dim, dark surroundings and lack of Qi Veins for replenishment meant relying solely on what Qi he had—using more reduced it further, making it impossible to sustain a prolonged fight, requiring swift resolution.
Youquan Fairy unexpectedly didn’t dodge or evade, simply tilted his head and took a sword directly, remaining indifferent even when his shoulder blade was cleaved in half. He even reached out to rub the wound, probing the sword mark.
"Turns out it’s the Dragon Tiger Pill, so you are indeed from the Supreme Lineage. Who is your master, Da Fan or Ziwei?
Today, reaching here confirms you as this generation’s Cloud Platform Pride, Supreme Taoist?
Heh heh, indeed, my good junior brothers! Just barely overcoming your apex, sent you to test the waters! Is it not for the Demon Extermination and defending the Dao, cleansing the house?"
"Boom!!"
Before the words were finished! The situation suddenly shifted! Youquan Fairy unexpectedly launched a superhuman punch, smashing towards the face!
However, Chen Xuantian had anticipated him pressing with higher realm! Martial Arts invading the body! "Bang!" Raising his hand, a thunder was unleashed, smashing directly towards the face!
"Zing!" "Splash!" "Boom!"
In an instant! The two passed by each other! Youquan Fairy took a direct thunder strike on his face, breaking his nose bridge, revealing bone, immediately bleeding.
Meanwhile, Chen Xuantian seized the moment, narrowly dodging the punching fist, raising one hand with the Longyuan blade to intercept and block the Fist Gang, while with the Tiger Blade Sword Strike, like sharp needles piercing, directly severing his lungs and ribs!
Youquan Fairy tilted his head with interest, disregarding the sword breach in his lungs and ribs, blood trickling down, focusing only on the bright yellow gaze,
"Oh? Managed to score a move on me, your sword skills are quite refined, who taught you?"
Though seemingly unscathed, having been hit twice in vital points, Chen Xuantian retained a serious expression, somber and wary.
After all, he knew that those Shaking Scale Two Swords had clearly penetrated into the internal organs—not to mention an ordinary person succumbing to one sword, even a Nascent Soul True Man would fall if their Zhangmen was broken, their Giant Watchtower pierced, sword striking the internal organs, blade wounding the Eight Meetings, severely damaging liver and spleen, instantly killing the Heart Core. Not dying would be fortunate; they should have no strength to fight further.
However... 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Slightly tilting his sword spine, Chen Xuantian’s eyes grazed over the bloodstains on the Tiger Blade.
Black, no splattered water, even the Heart Core blood had turned entirely black, resembling the entire Netherworld Spring.
Tsk, afraid it’s beyond redemption...
After a moment of silence, Chen Xuantian smiled brightly,
"So underhanded, Old Ancestor, clandestine force-accumulation and sudden ambush with a grandchild disciple?
And was it not agreed upon life for a life? A demon of thousands of years, using a little girl as a shield, unaware of shamelessness?"
Youquan Fairy chuckled softly,
"You’re right, I am shameless, what use is a face?"
"Boom!"
Another punch! But this punch accelerated vastly! The last was a missile! This punch is a supersonic missile!
In just an instant, the sudden punch traveled so fast it broke through sound, one punch blasting Chen Xuantian’s form into a thousand shattering pieces, like a torrential bloom, scattering disorderly into the pond!
