Fusang Sword Heart Diagram

The female cultivators watching the battle had their eyes shining.

"What a beautiful three-tailed golden-eyed fox!"

"They are from the Beast Taming Sect. I heard that every disciple in their sect contracts a spirit beast to fight alongside them."

"In the previous few arenas, we didn't see many people from the Beast Taming Sect participate. This burly man and the fox didn't seem like a good match, but I didn't expect them to work together so well."

“There were disciples from the Beast Taming Sect who participated in the battle before! You probably didn’t see them during the middle stage of the arena.”

"Yes, I remember a cultivator who had a contract with a feathered chicken. It was all purple, and I even found a purple feather there!"

"Eye-feathered chicken?" The woman shook her head. "If I were to contract a spirit beast, I would definitely choose one that looks good. It would be best if it were a blue phoenix or something similar, as it not only has strong attack power but can also be used as a mount."

"Azure phoenixes are rare too, let's save our breath."

Turning our gaze back to the arena, we saw the three-tailed golden-eyed fox, its eyes gleaming with intelligence and sharpness, swiftly lunging towards Ning Fusang.

The man followed closely behind, his fists flying in a dense, impenetrable barrage.

This man named Liao Kui was not only skilled in beast taming, but also a body cultivator whose body was like an impenetrable fortress, impervious to swords and spears.

His fists are his weapons.

The man's arm muscles bulged, swelling like small hills, and his punch came down with the force of a mountain collapsing.

The golden-eyed fox behind her had its tail grow longer, like a snow-white ribbon, and curled towards Ning Fusang's waist.

She lightly touched the ground with her toes, spun around, and stepped on the fox's tail, unleashing a powerful sword strike from above. The force of her attack caused Liao Kui to pause slightly, stagger a few steps, and then appear out of thin air behind Ning Fusang, delivering a punch.

boom!
Ning Fusang's figure disappeared like a ghost, and with a sweep of her leg, she kicked the golden-eyed fox away.

"Ow!"

The snow-white fox cried out in pain, crashing heavily onto the arena. A glint of cold light pierced its eyes.

"Ouch——!"

The golden-eyed fox's fur stood on end, and its tail was practically pointing skyward.

Liao Kui shouted, "Jin Shi!"

He darted out, grabbed the fox, and stood steadily three or four zhang away.

"You're being far too cold-hearted to treat a fox so harshly!" Liao Kui said, his face showing displeasure.

Ning Fusang withdrew the sword that had been thrust into the arena. "Since you have released your spirit beast to fight, you should be prepared for it to die."

On the fighting stage, there is no distinction between life and death.

However, this only applies to humans.

A cultivator's contracted spirit beast is not included here.

The golden-eyed fox was very intelligent. Upon hearing this, its pair of watery fox eyes suddenly widened, and it howled a few times, communicating with its owner.

Liao Kui snorted coldly.

His punches were like an overwhelming force, one punch after another, forcing Ning Fusang to retreat to the edge of the ring. Ning Fusang supported himself with his longsword, and as Liao Kui's punch approached, he leaned back to dodge and swept his leg across Liao Kui's lower body.

Liao Kui couldn't stop in time and half of his body fell off the stage. He reacted very quickly and immediately hooked himself on the edge of the stage with a backflip. Just as he was about to straighten up, a cold longsword was placed against his neck.

"you lose."

Ning Fusang said calmly, but did not sheathe his sword.

Only after Liao Kui gave a cold "hmm" did she move the sword away.

The golden-eyed fox, clinging to its master's arm, turned its head and revealed a fierce, baring-toothed expression to Ning Fusang.

It has shrunk to the size of a white cat. In this form, it has no intimidating presence whatsoever; instead, it is incredibly cute.

"What an adorable little fox! I want to keep one!"

"There are spirit beasts for sale in the market of Zhongzhou City. You can try your luck there at night."

"Being a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect is truly a blessing; their spirit beasts are all provided by the sect."

"The match should be over for today. Let's go, there's no more excitement to watch."

Ning Fusang rubbed her slightly sore arms and stepped off the stage.

She glanced at the arena in Nanchun and Zhou. The one defending the arena was a very young woman with a cold and stern face, and her moves were decisive and ruthless. "Isn't the last person defending the arena Feng Fuying?" Ning Fusang murmured to herself.

If Feng Fuying doesn't defend the arena, then he will definitely have to fight in the arena.

Currently, Zhongzhou City only has two arenas: Nan Chunhe Prefecture and Bei Yuling Prefecture.

So he wanted to challenge himself?

Ning Fusang was too lazy to guess when Feng Fuying would challenge him in the arena. In short, he would deal with whatever came his way.

After returning to his room, Ning Fusang began his attempt to break through to the peak of the eighth level of the martial arts realm.

During her battle with Qing Chen, she already felt her cultivation level weakening. Later, during her fight with Liao Kui, that barrier became extremely fragile.

Ning Fusang easily broke through to the peak of the eighth realm, and was only one step away from crossing that threshold and entering the ninth realm.

After a few more matches, it's highly likely that we won't need to wait any longer and can take the next step forward.

Ning Fusang took the Rejuvenating Pill and refined its medicinal effects.

The silkworm spirit emerged from the white jade pendant, its snow-white body seemingly covered with a layer of transparent, cicada-wing-like material.

The thin, transparent veil slowly unfurled, revealing a pair of wings.

The silkworm sensed the change in its body and its eyes widened.

It has grown wings?
This is the biggest change its body has undergone in the past 500,000 years.

It knew that only through diligent practice could a qualitative change occur!

After the silkworm spirit adapted to its wings, it flew to the table. The spiritual fruits on the table had average spiritual energy, but they tasted good.

It didn't eat the fruit for the sake of that spiritual energy.

If it's for spiritual energy, it can just drink the spiritual power in Fusang's dantian.

You don't even need to refine it yourself.

The end of ugly times.

Ning Fusang opened his eyes after completing the practice of the "Thirty-Six Secret Words".

The silkworm spirit happily shared with her, "I have wings now!"

Ning Fusang: "Oh."

Her attitude was indifferent, but the silkworm spirit was not discouraged. Given Fusang's temperament, it was already quite good that she responded with an "oh".

At least she's not thinking about strangling herself now.

Perhaps it was because I helped her find the dragon scales that I proved my worth.

In fact, Ning Fusang didn't like raising spirit beasts. She raised silkworm spirits because they were easy to care for.

The silkworm spirit only needs spiritual energy to survive, so she doesn't lack that much spiritual power, and there's no need for her to find food for it. As for spiritual fruits, she'll give it a couple if she has them, but if not, Ning Fusang won't bother to find them for it.

After one night, her spiritual energy had recovered to about 70-80%.

After daybreak, Ning Fusang continued to defend his title.

The retainers of the Mo family, acting on Mo Fengjue's orders, took turns challenging her in the arena.

They suffered defeats for three consecutive days.

Mo Fengjue's face looked as ugly as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Young master, we really have done our best!"

"Her strength is not at the eighth level, it's clearly at the ninth level!"

"Yes, she is still a sword cultivator at the Sword Qi Realm. To truly assess her combat strength, one must add one more realm to the surface level."

"Even Fairy Qingchen of the Wonderful Sound Sect and Liao Kui of the Beast Taming Sect lost, let alone us?"

"Unless we bring in outside help, we have no chance of winning."

"A bunch of fools who boost the morale of others while diminishing their own prestige. I really don't know what they're doing with the Mo family's money. They can't even share the burden of this little matter for the young master."
