Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 118 Azure Sparrow Sword Qi
Having taken four out of eight, and changing the order of battle, Pei Xia ended the fight first this time.

Ordinary cultivators, without some special methods, would be no match for Pei Xia even in a simple clash of spiritual energy; the outcome would be a foregone conclusion.

Xu Shangxin, who had already been eliminated, hugged Lu Li and cheered for Pei Xia from the audience. Seeing him win decisively, she cheered loudly for him, regardless of how many people were staring at her.

In the blink of an eye, it became the final four.

Just as Pei Xia stepped down from the stage, Xia Xuan stepped onto the stage with a sword in hand.

He turned to look at the swordsman in green. The mountain breeze blew Xia Xuan's clothes tighter, outlining her perfect curves shaped by years of cultivation.

However, this enchanting scene did not last long before an invisible sharpness sliced ​​through the long wind.

The sword energy is formed within, which means that her swordsmanship skills are entirely the result of her own hard work and not the help of others.

For someone of that age, that's truly astonishing.

Before Pei Xia could even celebrate with Xu Shangxin, she immediately patted her older brother on the shoulder and said, "Look at this. Look closely. She has her own sword energy. Compared to me, her level of talent and comprehension is more valuable for you to learn from."

Xu Shangxin didn't understand the meaning of "her level of talent and comprehension" in that sentence, but anyway, Pei Xia said so, so she watched.

Xia Xuan's opponent also came from a top sect in Youzhou.

Of course, no matter how top-tier they are, they can't surpass the Xuan Ge Sword Mansion; and no matter how talented they are, they can only become the next generation's sword leader.

When the other party saw Xia Xuan take the stage, they lowered their expectations of themselves and simply extended their palm, saying humbly, "Please give me your guidance."

Xia Xuan didn't stand on ceremony. She lightly pressed her slender fingers on the hilt of Qing Que's sword and slowly drew the blade from its sheath.

Her long hair swayed gently in the wind, and Xia Xuan pursed her lips, smiling nonchalantly: "No problem."

At first glance, this divinely left-behind treasure looks no different from anything else.

But if you look closely, you can see a faint blue light on the gleaming sword tip.

Xu Shangxin looked closely and was somewhat surprised: "The sharpness on this sword, why does it feel a bit like 'Hero, Spare My Life'?"

Both swords are sharp on top of each other. The "Hero, Spare My Life" sword is a snow blade formed from the icy coldness of the ice veins, while the "Azure Sparrow" sword is permeated with a faint blue luster.

Knowing his own limited judgment, the elder brother turned to Pei Xia, wanting to hear her opinion.

Unexpectedly, even Pei Xia seemed stunned this time.

"Pei Xia? Pei Xia?!"

Xu Shangxin called out several times before finally waking Pei Xia. She looked at him with some concern: "What's wrong? Is this sword that powerful?"

It's incredible, truly incredible, after all, it's a "divine relic".

But Pei Xia was stunned for another reason.

He let out a long breath: "Unlike the 'Heroes Spare My Life', the Qi on the Azure Sparrow Sword is actually Qi, but it's not the Qi of a cultivator; it's the sword's own."

That's right, that's the mystery of the Bluebird.

No one knows who the master craftsman who forged this Azure Sparrow sword was back then. He must have gotten the inspiration from the internal energy of a cultivator, and he actually succeeded in forging a masterpiece that could contain internal energy within the sword.

The level of Zhen Gang is indeed not high, but don't think that the level of Gang Qi is low because of this.

Just like the Transformation of the Netherworld to Refine the Body, where the limits of the physique increase with the improvement of the cultivator's cultivation level, the Qi will also become stronger as the cultivator's realm improves.

Even if we don't talk about the Dao Proving Pass, at least when one reaches the Heavenly Consciousness Realm, the most reliable protective method for a cultivator is still their spiritual energy, which has been refined through countless trials.

This is precisely the strength of the Azure Sparrow. The sword's spiritual energy is internal and has nothing to do with the cultivator wielding it. In other words, the lower the cultivation level, the more exaggerated the power of this divine relic becomes.

According to the common saying in the Jianghu of Youzhou: Under the Heavenly Mandate, Qingque is invincible.

However, on the other hand, although Qingque is powerful, she is just ordinary considering her title of "Divine Legacy".

Pei Xia was well-informed and knew that among divine artifacts, most "swords" were actually of average power. The reason he was stunned when he saw this sword was mainly because... damn, it looked familiar!

Although he had met Xia Xuan several times, Qing Que's sword hilt had always been wrapped in cloth, and this was the first time he had actually seen it drawn.

Upon closer inspection, isn't this...that...whose sword is this?
The lecherous older sister I met in Yuezhou back then, her name was Zhao Lanxue, she was carrying this sword, which was clearly called "Bai Luan"!

Surely I can't have misremembered?
Impossible! Although I was only fourteen that year, Zhao Lanxue truly taught me what it means to be in a dangerous and unpredictable world.

and many more……

Zhao Lanxue? Fu Hongshuang?
White phoenix? Blue sparrow?

On the sword-testing platform, a graceful figure in a green robe moved with the force of her sword, drawing wide-eyed exclamations from everyone around.

Only Pei Xia silently covered her face with her hands.

"clang!"

With a metallic clang, the azure energy on the Azure Sparrow Sword's edge, like a hot blade piercing through fat, tore through the opponent's manifested spiritual power, which he had painstakingly condensed, and pressed against his heart with a sharp sword wind.

The victory was swift and decisive, even faster than Pei Xia's previous match.

Xu Shangxin blinked, as if she hadn't seen enough, or perhaps she was a little puzzled: "Her sword...it looks sharper than other weapons, but it also seems..."

She couldn't explain it.

Pei Xia explained weakly, "It's understandable to be confused; you couldn't see that she was holding back."

The sharpness of the Azure Sparrow Sword's aura is comparable to that of the Heavenly Consciousness Realm. Using aura to break through spirit is like using immense force to crack an egg; it's easy to smash it.

Therefore, Xia Xuan actually used her sword energy to cut through her opponent's protective spiritual power first, and then the sword aura arrived.

It's just that because sword energy is invisible, many cultivators with shallow cultivation levels cannot detect it.

The fact that Xu Shangxin noticed this subtle difference suggests that she must also be quite talented in swordsmanship.

Xia Xuan deftly sheathed her sword, clasped her hands in a fist and smiled, "I've made a fool of myself."

His opponent was already sweating profusely, and upon hearing someone make a fool of themselves, he could only smile wryly and reply, "Xia Qingque's reputation is well-deserved."

Although they were both at the Tongxuan level, in front of Xia Xuan, they seemed almost like cultivators of the same realm.

This is the oppressive feeling brought by truly top-tier geniuses.

Xia Xuan patted her dress and, as she stepped off the stage, caught a glimpse of Pei Xia and gave him an extra smile.

She had noticed Pei Xia's gaze when she went on stage, but no matter how much her master instructed her to be unusual about Pei Xia, as long as she was on stage, Xia Xuan would only focus all her attention on her opponent.

At this moment, she looked at Pei Xia and thought of her master's instructions.

Judging from the letter, Master Fu Hongshuang must have some grudges against Pei Xia.

However, Pei Xia looks to be about the same age as me. How did she become enemies with my master?

Forget it.

Xia Xuan lightly touched the hilt of the sword with her fingertips. Her master said he wanted to keep her for two days, and she couldn't think of a good way to do it.

Anyway, it's his turn to go up in the ring soon, so maybe... I should just break his legs.

As soon as the thought arose, the blue sparrow in the sheath, whether sensing its master's mood or being stimulated by Pei Xia again, began to tremble slightly.

Just like Xia Xuan's heart, which was slowly beginning to get excited.

This was the first time she had ever fought against someone her age who possessed sword energy!
