Chapter 478: Summoning (Please Vote for Me)
"Old geezer talks too much, die by my sword!"
Fang Xi roared.
He was never one to just take a beating without fighting back.
At this moment, the Qing He Sword transformed into a streak of green light and shot forth, suddenly exploding across the sky, manifesting as 1.296 billion Qing He Needles that practically filled the void!
Pfft, pfft!
One fine needle after another pierced through, endlessly.
Elder Qing's expression remained unchanged. His External Avatar formed a hand seal and conjured a multi-colored feathered robe.
Upon the vibrant, multi-colored feathers, intricate runes continuously flickered, transforming into a five-colored light barrier that firmly protected both him and his true body within.
"Go!"
Fang Xi performed a sword incantation with his hand, and the sky-filling Qing He Needles split once more, transforming into the invisible and traceless "Qing He Formless Needles."
These femtometer-level formless needles were so minuscule that they could directly penetrate the five-colored shield, enter the bodies of the External Avatar and Elder Qing, adhere to their magic power, and go straight into their Dantian Qihai.
"Die!"
Fang Xi manipulated them with his Divine Consciousness, causing each "Qing He Needle" to erupt violently within their Dantians!
Elder Qing reacted with astonishing speed. A peculiar phoenix seal character appeared between his brows, and he abruptly formed a hand seal.
Amidst the flickering silver light, his figure suddenly dematerialized. The Qing He Needles appeared in the void, having lost their target.
However, his External Avatar's reaction was slightly a beat too slow, and it was pierced through its Dantian by countless "Qing He Formless Needles," which then violently erupted!
Pfft, pfft!
Streaks of Qing He Sword Qi burst forth from within the External Avatar's body, flying out. . .
In the blink of an eye, Elder Qing's External Avatar seemed to have suffered the torture of a thousand cuts, and no matter how robust its physique, it was unable to resist as it began to decompose from the most minuscule particles. . .
"What Feng Qing said was true, this sword is indeed vicious. . ."
Elder Qing's phoenix seal character between his brows flickered with light, his expression exceedingly solemn: "But you. . . you are not a sword cultivator!"
Ever since Fang Xi obtained the Fourth-Generation Qing He Sword, he had been regarded as an unparalleled sword cultivator who refined swords into threads. This was the first time his true nature had been seen through!
"Die!"
He didn't answer at all. With a wave of his hand, most of the green glow needles returned, forming a more slender Qing He Sword.
The Qing He Sword slashed through the air, transforming into a streak of green sword energy over a thousand zhang long, like a celestial pillar toppling, smashing towards Elder Qing!
Elder Qing raised a hand, and two pale flying daggers, seemingly crafted from ground white bones, appeared, crossing each other as they met the massive sword energy in mid-air.
Pfft, pfft!
Amidst two muffled thuds, a surprising scene unfolded.
Those two flying daggers, clearly of extraordinary material, were actually split in half by the Qing He Sword Qi, directly rendered useless and broken into four pieces, their spiritual light dim, as they fell from mid-air.
The green sword energy's momentum remained undiminished, striking the five-colored light shield formed by the multi-colored feathered robe.
After a teeth-gritting sound, streaks of green cracks appeared on the multi-colored feathered robe, then it suddenly exploded. . .
"Demon-Slaying Sword? !"
Elder Qing let out a cold snort. This "Demon-Slaying Sword" of Yun Jizi, he didn't know how much essence blood of four-stage great demons had been used to sharpen it, its power secretly startled even him. No wonder his External Avatar and the two spirit treasures were so easily destroyed!
Facing the Qing He Sword Qi, a silver light flashed between his brows, and his figure once again became illusory.
The Qing He Sword Qi that had pierced through the multi-colored feathered robe exploded, but could only futilely slice through empty space.
Utilizing this "Dematerialization" divine ability, Elder Qing seemed to have become invincible!
"Hahaha, is an Elder of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan only capable of hiding? Come again!"
Fang Xi held the Qing He Sword, chopping and slashing recklessly.
Streaks of Qing He Sword Qi crisscrossed the void, carrying extreme sharpness and lethality towards demon races.
He saw clearly that although Elder Qing, relying on his meticulous grasp of void power, could temporarily "dematerialize" himself like Feng Qing, fearless of the Qing He Sword's attacks, he must have paid a price!
At the very least, his magic power consumption was terrifying, not something he could maintain for long; otherwise, he would have long been invincible.
As expected!
Facing the second and third streaks of Qing He Sword Qi, Elder Qing did not choose to dematerialize himself, but instead directly relied on his escape speed to evade!
Whoosh!
Green light and silver light flickered and intertwined around him. . . and he suddenly retreated a hundred zhang!
Just then, Elder Qing's expression changed. He violently twisted into an extremely awkward posture, the range of his movements so great that his entire body's joints emitted an explosive crisp sound!
Pfft!
A flash of light seemed to pass through the void, and Elder Qing abruptly lowered his head, staring at his arm. He saw that the feathers on it were shattered, and a scar as thin as a cicada's wing had appeared there at some unknown point!
Fang Xi retrieved most of the green glow needles, but a portion of the "Qing He Formless Needles" still permeated the surrounding void, forming invisible traps!
Under this formless sword array, the speed the Heavenly Phoenix Clan prided itself on could become a weapon assisting their own suicide!
"Slash!"
He let out a long cry, and man and sword merged into one, transforming into a green sword rainbow that arrived in an instant!
Facing that streak of green sword light, even more intense than before, Elder Qing's brows flashed with light, ready to cast the "Dematerialization Art" once more!
Just then, from within the sword light, a white chess piece suddenly flew out!
*Clack! *
Amidst the crisp sound of the piece landing, the white chess piece arrived first, landing beside Elder Qing and transforming into a jade talisman, upon which was a slightly incomplete phoenix seal character.
—Space-Sealing Talisman!
The void was faintly chaotic. Seeing this, Elder Qing's face filled with horror, and he quickly spat out a silver bead.
Inside this silver bead, countless dense runes flickered. The moment it appeared, the void, originally disturbed by the "Space-Sealing Talisman," swiftly returned to calm.
Even so, his "dematerialization" was a beat slower than before.
Whoosh!
Fang Xi's sword rainbow passed through, and Elder Qing was unharmed, yet he was stroking his Dantian, before dematerializing again.
A green Qing He Needle was teleported through the void, appearing outside Elder Qing's body.
Fang Xi had previously used the "Space-Sealing Talisman" to disturb the void, and although Elder Qing suppressed it, he was a beat too slow, failing to prevent the "Qing He Formless Needles" from entering his body.
Elder Qing's expression was exceedingly solemn.
After this great battle, he already harbored thoughts of retreat.
He had originally thought that with himself and Feng Shisan, subduing the early Nascent Soul stage Yun Jizi would be more than enough.
Unexpectedly, not only had the opponent advanced to the mid-stage, but he was also a fourth-tier puppet master!
He had almost driven Feng Shisan to a desperate situation relying only on spirit beasts and puppets.
And even though he had overestimated the opponent by a margin, he still hadn't expected that Yun Jizi, at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, wielding that strange Demon-Slaying Sword, could actually contend with a top-grade four-stage demon cultivator!
'It seems Yun Jizi cannot be kept here today. I can only retreat for now. . . Later, I will call upon Elder Luan, and together we will take this person down. '
Elder Qing's gaze sharpened, and then a burst of green light erupted from his body.
Caw!
His figure instantly vanished, replaced by a massive Green Fire Luan bird, several tens of zhang long!
Its physique was somewhat similar to Xiao Qing's, but several times larger. Streaks of formless swords landed on its wings, leaving deep sword marks.
But compared to the massive body of a demon race, these were minor injuries!
'This old demon wants to flee! '
In an instant, Fang Xi saw through Elder Qing's plan.
'But I. . . how can I let you escape? '
His Divine Consciousness entered the All-Heavens Precious Mirror, where he saw a young man sitting cross-legged in a cave dwelling in the Kyushu World.
...
Kyushu World.
"Sigh. . . following the main body, I starve nine times in three days, and if anything happens, I have to go first. . ."
The External Avatar, having possessed Zhang Huohua, sighed and then commanded: "Taiyi. . . take over all cave dwelling permissions and create the illusion that I'm still here!"
"Yes, Master!"
A child's voice responded.
Then, a silver light flashed, Zhang Huohua's body stiffened, and the External Avatar within him strikingly vanished!
...
Southern Desolate Cultivation World.
A black light flashed, and the External Avatar appeared in its Nascent Soul form, immediately witnessing the scene of Xiao Qing leading several four-stage puppets in a fierce battle against Feng Shisan. It couldn't help but chuckle: "What a grand scene. . ."
At this moment, Feng Shisan had also been forced into his true form, transforming into a massive five-colored Heavenly Phoenix. Streaks of silver radiance were interspersed among the vibrant, multi-colored feathers on its body, looking as if it was about to unleash a void divine ability to escape.
Last time, he had even used this divine ability to evade Fang Xi's Qing He Sword's pursuit!
Caw! ! !
The five-colored Heavenly Phoenix flapped its wings and shrieked furiously. Streaks of green wind blades, mixed with silver threads, flew out from its two wings.
The mid-grade four-stage Wind-Winged Tiger's eyes were dull, allowing massive wounds to appear on its body, as tendrils of vines wriggled beneath its flesh.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, it flapped its wings and arrived beside the five-colored Heavenly Phoenix, then self-detonated its physical body and demon core!
Boom!
The terrifying spiritual energy vortex formed by the self-detonation of a mid-grade four-stage demon race instantly engulfed the five-colored Heavenly Phoenix.
After the spiritual energy subsided, Feng Shisan's one wing was strikingly missing for the most part: "I'll remember you all. . ."
He glared bitterly at Xiao Qing, and then abruptly chanted a spell.
Feathers fell off one by one, the silver radiance upon them converged, rapidly condensing into a phoenix seal character.
Just as Feng Shisan was about to unleash his divine ability to escape. . .
*Clack! *
The crisp sound of a piece landing rang out!
It was Fang Xi's true body directly sending a white chess piece flying!
The snow-white chess piece transformed into a "Space-Sealing Talisman" in mid-air, emitting fluctuations that disturbed the void.
"Hmph!"
Feng Shisan let out a cold snort, violently activated his inner core, and spat out a mouthful of essence blood, causing the void's chaos to swiftly dissipate.
For the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, suppressing such fluctuations was not too difficult a matter.
After all, this "Space-Sealing Talisman" was merely Fang Xi's imitation, still incomplete!
If the true "All-Heavens Precious Mirror" were to act, even with just a wisp of residual power, Feng Shisan would absolutely not be able to escape.
But at this moment, just as this demon was about to completely dematerialize.
The External Avatar instantly teleported, appearing behind Feng Shisan, and in its hand, a pitch-black small sword emerged!
Buzz!
The Divine Infant Sword emitted a terrifying hum, and abruptly flickered.
When it reappeared, it had actually broken through to behind Feng Shisan, and that layer of silvery-white void defense had not played the slightest role.
Pfft!
A flash of demonic malevolence on the Divine Infant Sword directly tore open the existing wound on the five-colored Heavenly Phoenix's body.
A five-colored Heavenly Phoenix's soul flew out, and in its center was an inner core with green and silver thread-like patterns, clearly looking panicked as if a great disaster was upon it.
It tried to instantly teleport away from the battlefield.
The next instant, a pitch-black small sword had already pierced through this Heavenly Phoenix!
