The sword heart’s mind was momentarily lost. It was not until the sword spirit’s hands had reached his chest that he suddenly regained his senses, and quickly waved his hand to block the attack.
Boom!
The flow of qi surged violently, and both of them were sent flying backwards. The figures condensed by spiritual energy swayed unsteadily like the shadows of a flickering light.
“I did it!” Ling Chuxi hadn’t expected that her Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique would be successful, and was delighted. However, knowing there was no time to celebrate, Ling Chuxi immediately clutched the Luo Chen sword and attacked the sword heart.
Although her reaction was fast, she was still one step slower than them. She had just rushed a few steps forward when the sword spirit and the sword heart were sent flying backwards. Ling Chuxi didn’t hesitate; she forcefully raised her Qi of True Essence to resist the strong qi flow and continued to attack the sword heart. She knew that only by weakening the strength of the sword heart to its minimum could there be a hope for integration.
“Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique! No wonder the sword spirit has so much confidence in you. To actually be able to comprehend the Core of Martial Path at the realm of True Essence, and use the cultivation method of an Area!” The sword heart finally realized that Ling Chuxi had used the cultivation method of an Area just now.
With his spiritual body’s cultivation ability, Ling Chuxi shouldn’t have been able to ambush him so easily. However, in underestimating his opponent, he had lowered his guard around Ling Chuxi, focusing all his attention on the sword spirit, and so had taken a great loss due to a moment of carelessness.
See Ling Chuxi attacking like an arrow cut loose from a bow, the sword heart roared furiously and swung the huge sword in his hand.
Feeling that tremendous power that could topple mountains and overturn seas, Ling Chuxi did not flinch or retreat. Instead, she clenched her teeth, and used all her strength to slash out.
There was a loud ringing, and the sword heart was sent flying once again. His body condensed by spiritual power was like a solid body, and he hit a wall of White Jade Crystal heavily, crumpling to the ground.
Just now, the sword heart already been hurt quite badly from the sword spirit’s blow. Now, he had received Ling Chuxi’s blow in full force again. This large amount of damage caused his spirit body to became hazy like fog.
Ling Chuxi wasn’t much better off. She flew away like a kite with a broken string from the impact. When she fell to the ground, blood was leaking from the corner of her mouth, and she was barely standing with the support of the Luo Chen sword.
This time, Ling Chuxi understood the strength of the sword heart. With the joint efforts of her and the sword spirit, and with the sneak attack using the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, all three parties had ended up severely injured.
In the corner, Little Red’s eyes grew wide in shock. He didn’t know that the two shards of the Cang Yuan sword’s remnants could be so terrifyingly powerful, and didn’t expect that Ling Chuxi could master the cultivation method of an Area! At the moment, he felt very lucky that he hadn’t acted rashly earlier. Fortunately, he had not tried to take revenge on Ling Chuxi; if even the sword heart couldn’t resist her Area, Little Red would surely have been done for if she used the technique against him.
Thinking about this, Little Red quietly glanced at Little White. The fox looked calm as usual, the look in his eyes unchanging. He probably knew Ling Chuxi could do it, so he wasn’t worried at all.
It had to be said that the proud Lord Young Master’s imagination was running a bit too wild at the moment. Things were not actually as complicated as he thought, and Ling Chuxi was not as powerful as he thought either. What happened just now was caused by chance, and an advantage gained by taking a risk.
Seeing that the sword heart was badly damaged, the sword spirit did not dare to delay any longer, forcefully gathering its spiritual energy to charge at him. With the White Jade Crystal Heart, the sword heart’s recovery speed would be fast, so if they delayed for a moment and allowed him to recover his strength, the both of them might not make it out alive.
