Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 113 Breaking the Situation
"Admit defeat!"

Without saying a word, Lu Li patted her bottom and raised her hand to admit defeat.

There's no way she can fight. She's a pure vegetarian, and her supernatural powers and spells can be instantly dispelled. What's the point of fighting her?

For a fleeting moment, Lu Li considered whether she should linger on the stage for a while, and as long as Changsun Yu made a move, no matter how severe it was, she would lie on the ground and scream as pitifully as possible.

Child abuse, huh? I'll ruin your reputation!
But then I thought about it again, and how this guy attacked Li Tan yesterday was also seemingly casual, yet it was filled with an unspeakable ruthlessness.

Tsk, let the petty person deal with it.

Lu Li climbed off the stage, grabbed Pei Xia's trouser leg, and climbed up to his neck.

A soft chin rested on Pei Xia's head, and she said in a muffled voice, "I don't like this person."

Pei Xia was also looking at Changsun Yu, her mind racing.

According to Wang Su, as the head dancer's personal disciple, Changsun Yu rarely left the Lingxiao Sword Sect.

Therefore, the evil pig inside him would never be whole.

It's very simple. The popularity of the Lingxiao Sword Sect can only slow down the consumption of his energy, but it's not enough to put him to sleep.

Even if he had the same support as Wei Shan, and even if he had the same talent, opportunities, and abilities as Pei Xia, at most, he would only have two months. Every two months, he would have to leave the sect and find a place with a large population to rest.

The fact that he didn't have one means that he probably doesn't possess a complete Calamity Pig like Pei Xia.

In the past, Pei Xia would never have thought of this. In his preconceived notions, the only difference between "having" and "not having" the calamity pig was that it existed.

But the Snow Swallow Sect's secret realm revealed another possibility to him.

The "Ru Tao" of Liancheng Fire Vein, through the "heart fire" seeping out from the underground fire vein, is like a miniature version of a calamity pig.

This tiny version of the calamity pig should theoretically have limited abilities.

Therefore, Changsun Yu's ability to instantly dispel magic, and his almost precognitive insight on the arena yesterday, should indicate that he has been deeply tainted by the Heart Fire.

Pei Xia held Xu Shangxin in her arms, staring at her little apprentice, and suddenly smacked her lips, muttering, "I'm a little annoyed."

His voice was low, but the underlying meaning in his words made Lu Li peek at him.

Having gone through many trials and tribulations, especially facing the Calamity Pig, Pei Xia's mental state was actually very stable. Even in Beishi City, when he encountered so many unexpected things, he still kept his mind at peace.

But this time, he seemed genuinely angry.

He was facing a whole monstrous beast, and after giving so much, he was still trying his best to fight against it.

How could anyone so easily succumb to a tiny spark of passion?

Standing on the stage, Changsun Yu noticed Pei Xia's gaze. Seeing that Pei Xia was staring intently at him, he felt that Pei Xia was showing hostility towards him.

As if to prove his ease and skill, he grinned, his smile as warm as a spring breeze.

The sword-testing will continue.

Before long, the first half of the game was over. After a short rest, the second half began.

Xia Xuan was the lucky one, but she didn't have good luck with the draw. In the first round, she encountered a rogue cultivator at the Tongxuan Realm, who was considered to have a very high cultivation level in this sword trial.

However, the process of the two sides fighting was not complicated.

Xia Xuan was well aware of her advantages. She completely abandoned her fancy fighting techniques and charged straight at her opponent with her sword, engaging in a head-on clash of spiritual energy and martial arts.

His skillful swordplay, accompanied by a sharp sword wind, overwhelmed his opponent, leaving him breathless, and he easily won a victory in no time.

Time passed quickly, and the sun soon began to set in the west; today's competition was drawing to a close.

Just as Xu Shangxin was slowly waking up in Pei Xia's arms, she heard a shout coming from the sword-testing platform: "Chenke Temple, Fuma Daoist, against Donghai Superman, Pei Xia!" The eldest brother rubbed his eyes and heard Pei Xia's voice in his ear: "If you're awake, stand still, I'm going on stage."

Xu Shangxin then realized that she was nestled in Pei Xia's arms. She blushed and stood up, hurriedly smoothing her hair.

Pei Xia took off the pear blossom from her head and handed it to her, then got up and walked onto the stage.

His opponent was the Tongxuan Realm expert from the Shenke Temple, named Fuma Daoren.

Pei Xia had seen this old Taoist priest when he was in Junma City. His methods were unclear, but one thing was certain.

He is stronger than Sun Tianshu of Huoye Mountain.

Or rather, among the remaining thirty-two people, he appears to be the strongest, aside from Changsun Yu and Xia Xuan.

Upon seeing that Pei Xia was facing off against this person, many cultivators below the stage immediately cheered loudly.

Serves you right! What kind of bullshit East Sea Superman is he? He has no martial ethics. You deserve to run into the Taoist priests of the Shenke Temple!

The old Taoist priest grinned lewdly, his yellowed, uneven teeth spitting out foul breath. He opened his mouth and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "So that's why that brat Changsun specially sent me a pill, telling me to be ruthless. It turns out your adversary is you."

As expected, this matchup was arranged by Changsun Yu.

Pei Xia let out a soft breath: "Yes, I've had really bad luck these past few days. Senior, do you have any ideas?"

Master Fuma chuckled: "How about you offer me a Fangcun Pill as a tribute, and I'll let you lose with some dignity? What do you say?"

"Just one is enough?"

One is enough.

“Okay,” Pei Xia held out her hand to him, “then give it to me?”

The old Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "Boy, you're asking for death!"

The Taoist priest took a step forward, and his greasy, dirty cloth shoes landed silently, but a buzzing sound echoed in their ears.

Pei Xia looked around and the original sword-testing platform suddenly disappeared. Countless winding vines and branches began to grow under her feet. These branches spread out like a spider web and danced gracefully around Pei Xia.

It resembled both a tree and a person, enveloping Pei Xia in layers.

The voice of the Taoist priest came from outside the black wood, overlapping and distant: "Boy, I know you defeated that harlot from Fire Night Mountain, but what you relied on was nothing more than the fire-starting treasure on your body. But my black wood is harder than gold and iron. With your meager Qi cultivation, you probably can't even withstand a bump!"

Pei Xia remained calm and lightly touched the black wood beside him with his fingertips.

There was indeed a metallic coolness, and one could clearly feel the effect of absorbing spiritual energy.

The methods of the Shenke Temple are indeed unpredictable and varied. This technique is neither like martial arts nor like supernatural powers; it is very mysterious.

“However, you’re right. Relying solely on your internal energy, I don’t know how long it would take to cut down all these black trees and exhaust your spiritual power…”

Pei Xia closed her eyes, focused her energy on her dantian, and the spiritual energy flowing through her meridians began to converge towards her dantian.

Pei Xia's spiritual power was incredibly pure, but because of this, it appeared exceptionally delicate. It gathered from her meridians, seemingly trying to forge something.

However, because it was too refined, the spiritual energy circulating in its body was completely exhausted after only a small part of it had been conjured up.

This was also within Pei Xia's expectations.

Not only did he breathe through his mouth and nose, but every pore on his body seemed to open up at this moment, like a whale sucking in water, and countless spiritual energies began to converge into his body!

Pei Xia, you need to break through to the Refinement Cauldron stage!
