Chapter 593: Fighting Seven with One (9)
Qi Huang gave a noncommittal smile. Since her spiritual sense could now detect the few people, she could naturally suppress them. However, she had no intention of doing so for a simple reason: Mimi, as the Nine Nether Demonic Cat, needed to hide her identity.
Qi Huang didn’t know if others knew about soul modification, but to be safe, she couldn’t use her spiritual sense to suppress the little monsters in special clothes anymore. Otherwise, the onlookers would know that she hadn’t discovered them with her naked eye just now. That was the first reason.
Secondly, if this matter were exposed, her own identity would also be at risk of exposure.
Qi Huang had not forgotten that half a year ago, at the Evergreen Convention in Yongning Prefecture, she was invincible with only her spiritual sense. Now, she was stirring up this continent-level convention. Although the two places were tens of thousands of miles apart, Elder Zuo had come to Zhongzhou to promote his main body. Who knew if those who knew about this would connect the two?
Therefore, to hide her true identity, Qi Huang had to try her best to disguise herself as a genuine late-stage Huashen realm master, rather than a crippled cultivator who could only fight with spiritual sense. This was the only way to paralyze those people.
“She can still use her spiritual sense!”
“My god! They are all in the Shentong realm. Is the difference that big? She actually used a single hairpin with her spiritual sense to blast that Zheng Wei so far away!”
“Nonsense, haven’t you heard? Once cultivators reach the Huashen realm, every layer’s difference is an insurmountable gulf, let alone the Shentong realm!”
“In that case, aren’t those seven monsters doomed to lose?”
Tens of thousands of cultivators who had retreated several miles away were discussing anxiously. Some were floating in the air, while others were standing on the ground. From a distance, they looked like a huge black “pot cover” covering the Zhu Xian Terrace.
“Vice Alliance Leader, what do we do now? She wasn’t affected by the Water Separation Art!”
Elder Ma asked Cao Hong anxiously again.
“Why are you so anxious? Those little monsters are all wearing clothes made of Nine Nether Demonic Cat fur. Her spiritual sense won’t be able to suppress them at all!”
Cao Hong explained impatiently.
“But if we only compare cultivation levels, those seven little monsters are not their opponents. The gap is too big!”
Elder Ma said with a crestfallen face.
“Are you blind? Don’t they still have the Supreme Domain? No matter how high this yellow-haired girl’s cultivation is, she can only choose metal accessories like hairpins as weapons. She can’t break through the Rock Armor, and she can’t deal with those seven little monsters in a short time. If you don’t believe me, look at Zheng Wei.”
Cao Hong gestured towards the collapsed wall.
Several elders looked towards the gap in the wall and found that Zheng Wei had indeed stood up from the ruins. Although he looked embarrassed, he seemed fine, because his “Rock Armor” was intact.
“Therefore, both sides will inevitably fall into a stalemate. With Yang Jin’er’s support, the seven little monsters on Qi Huang’s side are clearly more confident.”
Cao Hong then made a deduction.
“But what if she has powerful magic treasures? Magic treasures are not weapons!”
Elder Ma asked cautiously again.
“Can you shut your stinky mouth? Don’t you even know the origin of the Rock Armor?”
Cao Hong rebuked in exasperation.
“Elder Ma, that Rock Armor is the sect-protecting treasure of the Qiankun Sect. Although it now has a weapon spirit, it’s not something that a cultivator at the eighth level of the Shentong realm can break.”
An elder next to him reminded him.
“Oh, right, right, right, I actually forgot about this.”
Elder Ma suddenly realized.
“Madam, her spiritual sense was not affected. You can withdraw the Blood Hell.”
Cao Yang instructed Hua Yu again.
Hua Yu showed a look of unwillingness on her face, but she still withdrew the Blood Hell. With her current strength, she could at most restrain the spiritual sense of a seventh-level Shentong realm cultivator. This was still relying on the power of the Shore Blood Blade. If the enemy were stronger, she would be powerless.
On the other side, Tang Long also bestowed a set of Rock Armor on Ning Wuxia.
Ning Wuxia brandished a treasured sword. Since spiritual abilities were useless, she could only cooperate with her teammates in close combat.
Cao Yang turned to look at Qi Huang again and said calmly, “Although your cultivation is strong, we are protected by clothes made of Nine Nether Demonic Cat fur, so your spiritual sense cannot suppress us. Moreover, outside, the Rock Armor provides defense. Within the Supreme Domain’s influence, you cannot use weapons. It is not easy to break through the defense, so who will win and who will lose is yet to be determined!”
“Is that so?”
Qi Huang smiled playfully. With a thought, countless stones under her feet shot towards the seven little monsters like cannonballs, whistling as they rubbed against the air.
“Dodge!”
Cao Yang reminded his teammates and then used his footwork to dodge and weave.
The other little monsters did the same. Unfortunately, their strength was not enough. Even with the enhancement of mysterious footwork, they could not completely dodge the large and small stones.
“Bang bang bang…”
Several little monsters were hit one after another and flew out in embarrassment. However, because of the protection of the Rock Armor, their injuries were very light.
“Withered Wood Blooms Spring!”
Yang Jin’er even used the art of life and death to immediately treat her teammates’ minor injuries. Once her energy was depleted, she would immediately take out a pill to replenish her True Qi.
In this way, although Qi Huang’s attacks seemed fierce, they basically had no substantial effect.
…
“As expected, the Vice Alliance Leader’s predictions were accurate! They have fallen into a stalemate!”
Elder Ma flattered him.
“That’s right. Now it mainly depends on who can last longer. Although the Saintess of the Hua Rong Sect has stronger strength, Yang Jin’er comes from the You Xuan Sect, which is known for its medical skills, and has a rich supply of pills. I’m afraid her chances of winning are even greater.”
Cao Hong made a confident judgment.
“That’s great! After this, we can use the prestige of the Immortal Alliance to belittle Jiang Ling to nothing. This will not only preserve the value of this Evergreen Convention but also preserve the foundation of the Bloodline Wheel, which maintains the dignity of the immortal families.”
Elder Ma was overjoyed.
…
Outside the arena, Cheng Hong Ling became anxious again and transmitted her thoughts to her clone: “Do you have any decent magic treasures?”
“I only have all sorts of swords…”
“I only have the Auspicious Sword Art, and I really don’t have any magic treasures. The rope that tied you is only effective against cultivators below the Shentong realm, and it’s clearly not enough to deal with them.”
Qi Huang answered casually.
“Uh…”
Cheng Hong Ling paused awkwardly, then pretended to be calm and said, “I don’t have any decent magic treasures either. How about I borrow some from the Hua Rong Sect people?”
“Okay!” Qi Huang immediately agreed.
Cheng Hong Ling then asked the Hua Rong Sect disciples next to her, but the result disappointed her. Even Yuan Protector couldn’t produce a magic treasure that could break the Rock Armor.
“This Rock Armor was originally the sect-protecting treasure of the Qiankun Sect. It was destroyed because it helped their immortal ancestor pass through a Heavenly Tribulation, so only the weapon spirit remained. Although its power has been greatly reduced, the armor it temporarily condensed cannot be broken by ordinary magic treasures.”
Yuan Protector quickly explained.
Cheng Hong Ling shook her head helplessly, then told her clone about it.
“This thing could withstand a Heavenly Tribulation before it was destroyed? No wonder I couldn’t break through the defense!”
Qi Huang was a little surprised.
“Haha, I’d like to see how long you can last! Junior sister Yang is the Saintess of the You Xuan Sect, and her pill reserves are even richer than my muscles!”
Tang Long, seeing that his side was in an invincible position, taunted proudly in the arena.
“Yes, do you think you can break brother Tang’s Rock Armor with just a few stones? That’s daydreaming. Even if you take out the Hua Rong Sect’s best magic treasure, it might not be useful.”
Zheng Wei also chimed in.
“Is that so?”
Qi Huang sneered disdainfully, then said, “To deal with it, why would I need any magic treasures? A strand of hair is enough!”
After saying that, Qi Huang reached up to her ear and gently pulled. With a slight stinging sensation on her scalp, several long strands of black hair appeared in her fair palm.
I really don’t want to expose the attack method of my ghost hair, but that doesn’t mean I can’t use my hair in other ways.
With a thought from Qi Huang, several strands of hair floated in the air.
