Chapter 792 Xuan Li Vs Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators Battle! [II]



historical

"Even if you have broken through and obtained astonishing power, the two of us are already experienced and worthy experts that you won't be able to defeat!"

Wen Ding arrived in front of Xuan Li in the blink of an eye and struck her with a fierce punch. The faint sound of a fierce roar could barely be heard as an explosion occurred in the sky.

However, Wen Woo's pupils shrank sharply!

Xuan Li had swung the halberd beautifully and after a fluid but very fast swing, she dodged and at once struck Wen Ding's back as she stepped to the side behind him, sending him flying just like Wen Ming!

Wen Woo's figure appeared behind Xuan Li and slashed fiercely with a sword that had appeared in his hands. His grim and somewhat shocked gaze looked at Xuan Li, expecting to see her body split in two.

But Xuan Li's reaction was quicker as she quickly dodged, her gaze flashed and with her hand she waved the halberd, slashing towards this old man.

"It's useless!" Wen Woo spat and the cultivation essence flowed out at an incredible speed, with his aura forming a barrier and wanting to suppress Xuan Li.

Xuan Li frowned and her cultivation essence flowed out at a speed no less fast than Wen Woo's. The cultivation essence poured into the spiritual weapon, adding more weight and power to the halberd before striking.

* Boom! *

Wen Woo went flying several meters away before stopping and a line of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth, shocked to see that he was unable to resist this girl's attack!

"[Palm of God's Punishment!]"

Suddenly, a giant golden palm suddenly materialized in the sky, covering several meters of space and fell straight towards Xuan Li.

Xuan Li looked at this attack and swung the halberd in her hands again. She tightened her small hands on the halberd and swung it towards the giant golden palm.

Space shook intensely, causing Xuan Li to retreat a few meters in the air before quickly stabilizing. She waved the spear, regaining control and glared at her opponents as she gritted her teeth with some numbness in her arms and hands. Her striking but fine armor was still intact, as if it had not been damaged in the slightest. Not even a trace of injury or fatigue could be seen on her, only a slight numbness.

Wen Ding appeared with a dark and humiliated expression.

"It seems that you are not a mere weak girl, your power and strength is not simple." Wen Ding commented coldly without taking his eyes off Xuan Li. Although he had not used his full strength, he was still suppressed by this little girl, how could he not be furious!

The strength of this girl who was the same age as his young master was very powerful!

"Let's cut the nonsense and kill her. We still need to interrogate her and get the inheritance information!"

Appearing majestically, Wen Woo solemnly wiped the small line of blood from his mouth as he looked at Xuan Li. He spat and said, "Girl, you are powerful, from what was expected of a genius like you! But you must know that for a reason we great experts who have been long in this realm will always be more powerful than those who have just broken through, like you!"

Wen Woo's soul spiritual force flowed swiftly, his consciousness sea surging as he finally condensed what appeared to be the figure of a huge golden lion, glowing in the sky before lunging towards Xuan Li!

"Soul Attack!" Xuan Li's pupils shrank as she swallowed with difficulty, although she had barely entered the Nascent Soul realm, she could sense that the strength of this attack clearly belonged to the soul force! And to be able to manifest the image of this attack to be visible, then it was a very powerful attack! It could even seriously wound one's body in addition to the consciousness sea! This she had learned from the general knowledge and concepts pertaining to the Nascent Soul realm that she had read in her Sect's Primordial Library!

She could not take this attack lightly! Her Consciousness Sea was barely small and very weak, so she might die if she tried to resist using only her soul force!

Xuan Li took out an object from her storage ring, poured out her cultivation essence and much of her soul force, quickly activating it.

"Thank you, Master!" Xuan Li whispered gratefully as she saw the small flower of various colors in her hand. A powerful middle-grade defensive artifact!

This delicate flower had been gifted to her by her master earlier, but she could only fully activate it through her soul force and cultivation essence, something that came in handy in this situation. If she only used the cultivation essence, she could create a slight barrier, but powerful enough to defend her from powerful attacks. Xuan Li had previously used it to resist Wen Woo's pressure, before breaking through, but at this moment, she was fully activating it for the first time.

At this moment, a flower-shaped shield instantly formed, like a rose growing and spreading out, covering Xuan Li against the golden lion. The protective barrier even created an additional layer to Xuan Li, enveloping her in the process as she felt an increase in her defense.

The golden lion's roar reverberated in the sky, roaring fiercely as it arrived before the flower and with its claws tore towards Xuan Li wanting to break the flower in front of her.

Wen Ding wasted no time and had already arrived with Xuan Li in less than an instant. His aura enclosed Xuan Li, not wanting to give her a chance to escape. Wen Woo also waved his hand, causing the golden lion figure to advance faster and hit Xuan Li.

The difference between a cultivator at the Early Stage and Middle Stage of Nascent Soul was not something that could be easily measured, especially if one had already been nurturing and growing their consciousness sea for a long time. Although it was very difficult to nurture one's sea of consciousness sea, time and opportunities would make it fast, especially when advancing one stage; the soul force would increase considerably, gaining a drastic increase in spiritual force.

In such a way, Wen Woo did not bother to attack again, knowing that it was enough for him to completely suppress this girl through soul force.

Xuan Li gritted her teeth, poured her cultivation essence into the halberd and faced Wen Ding. The soul spiritual force was intensely injected into the defensive artifact, arduously resisting the golden lion's projection.

However, the flower barrier began to crack the more it resisted the attacks of the golden lion image. The pressure coming from Wen Ding was also somewhat difficult, which prevented her from moving from the spot to get away from the soul attack. Xuan Li faced a great dilemma for the first time.

Vaguely recalling one of the main legacy attack techniques she had obtained, Xuan Li concentrated her mind and took a deep breath. Another large portion of cultivation essence was poured into the halberd, while she withdrew the remaining soul spiritual force to concentrate it on the halberd as well.

Although Xuan Li didn't know exactly the range and power of the attack, she knew that it was an attack technique that could be used from the Nascent Soul realm level, so it should be enough even though she had barely learned the basics let alone mastered it.

"[Cosmological Principle!]"

Then, the world around Xuan Li seemed to stop slightly. She watched as the image of the golden lion expanded in the air, encompassing much of the space as it became gigantic while small wisps of vaguely visible energies spread out, forming this figure. This must have been the spiritual force of the soul attack invisible to the human eye.

Xuan Li also watched as Wen Ding seemed to expand in all directions, as if he became a giant in a few seconds and his body surrounded her as he expanded, encompassing much of the sky. A sword had appeared in his hand, becoming large as well as it tried to fall on her.

Everything seemed to become bigger, covering the sky and the earth, expanding to all sides.

Only Xuan Li's body remained intact, unchanged in some way. But what surprised Xuan Li most was that none of them seemed to notice, as if time had truly stopped before her eyes.

lightsΝοvel Xuan Li's eyes scanned in all directions quickly, although she too could not move because the speed of time seemed to affect her as well and she could only see the incoming attacks towards her, Xuan Li quickly noticed that there seemed to be several free spaces to move into to escape the attacks. Even Wen Ding's sloppy spaces appeared and were marked before her eyes, as if indicating to her that in those spaces she could move and also strike to cause a serious injury by counterattacking.

Likewise, Xuan Li felt that if she attacked, her attack would totally fall to Wen Ding even if she attacked in another direction. A strange and mysterious feeling.

Feeling the strength of her grip on the halberd, Xuan Li gritted her teeth when she was ready to move. She could somehow sense when to get rid of this feeling of slowing time to return to real time, as long as she concentrated on the connection with the halberd in her hands.

Xuan Li's figure seemed to teleport as she suddenly appeared at Wen Ding's side while the latter's sword had strangely swerved to the side. The halberd swung, increased force and momentum and slashed hard at Wen Ding's shoulder, nearly severing his entire arm as the halberd easily pierced through his defenses along with skin and muscle, slashing through much of his bone.

The golden lion figure finally destroyed the protective flower image before pouncing on Xuan Li.

But when Xuan Li was ready to dodge and perform the same technique again to defend herself, her consciousness ached as if a blade was slowly piercing her head and her body became heavy, falling and impacting the ground. Xuan Li even had difficulty breathing. Her consciousness sea hurt horribly.

In the few seconds that seemed like an eternity and a fleeting moment instantly, Xuan Li realized that her consciousness sea had dried up and her cultivation essence had completely depleted.

Xuan Li's eyes watched how the golden lion was about to reach for her, rushing at her as it seemed to open its mouth.
