"Black Wind Monster, you actually dared to attack my people! How arrogant!"

Just when Elder Li and the others were in despair, a cold voice came from inside the cabin.

In a dark room where no one was watching, a bluish-white light burst out from the door.

It's a sword! A bluish-white longsword!

A magical artifact! A Core Formation cultivator!?

Elder Li and the others were startled, but their faces quickly lit up with joy.

shhhhh!

In the next instant, several streaks of bluish-white sword light flashed, instantly shattering the dark blue wind blades, which turned into spiritual energy and dissipated into the world.

After doing all this, the longsword danced in the air, creating a beautiful sword flower.

Everyone only felt a flash before their eyes, and a figure appeared in front of them, a blue and white longsword slowly falling into his hand.

He was a refined man in his thirties or forties, dressed in a white long gown.

What's most striking is his long, all-white hair, which dances in the sea breeze.

"Xuan Qingzi, it's you!"

When the Black Wind Old Monster saw the refined man, his pupils contracted slightly, and a hint of slight apprehension flashed in his dark eyes.

The person in front of me is named Xuan Qingzi. He has only been in the Core Formation stage for a few decades, yet he has already reached the peak of the early Core Formation stage and is just one step away from advancing to the middle Core Formation stage.

His swordsmanship is quite exquisite and very difficult to deal with.

Black Wind Old Monster had fought him many years ago, but unfortunately he was outmatched.

"Black Wind Old Monster, it's been many years since we last met. It's time for us to have a proper spar again."

Xuan Qingzi looked at the Black Wind Monster without the slightest surprise in his eyes, as if everything was within his expectations.

"Xuan Qingzi, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Seeing Xuan Qingzi's nonchalant demeanor, Black Wind Old Monster frowned, his already wrinkled face becoming even more gloomy.

Time is of the essence.

He absolutely must get his hands on the ship!

Black Wind Old Monster slightly opened his mouth, revealing a set of yellowish-black teeth. Immediately afterwards, a burst of black mist surged out and quickly condensed into shape.

It was a rather exquisite black scythe, exuding a menacing aura!

"Let me show you the power of my Black Wind Demon Scythe!"

In the blink of an eye, the black scythe instantly grew to a size of seven or eight zhang (approximately 33-40 meters), slashing fiercely towards the refined middle-aged man, accompanied by a series of whooshing sounds.

hum!

The bluish-white longsword behind Xuan Qingzi trembled, and after a sword cry, it transformed into a giant sword over ten zhang long, piercing towards the black demonic scythe.

boom--!

The moment the two collided, a white shockwave was generated!

The Qian family's merchant ship rocked violently.

boom--!

Another wave of energy erupted, the two forces were evenly matched, and neither retreated!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Black Wind Monster, you've improved quite a bit these past few years! Try this move of mine!"

Xuan Qingzi formed hand seals, and the bluish-white longsword transformed into afterimages, instantly shrinking to its normal size.

Immediately afterwards, Xuan Qingzi began to mutter incantations.

In the blink of an eye, the longsword in front of him began to emit a hazy blue light, which grew brighter and brighter.

In the end, the longsword split into millions, transforming into hundreds and thousands of cyan sword shadows floating in the air.

It was quite similar to the small crimson sword of the black-clad figure from before, but its power was vastly different.

It is an unmistakably pure swordsmanship technique!

"Taste my sword light splitting technique!"

As soon as Xuan Qingzi finished speaking, he pointed forward, and hundreds of azure sword shadows fell from the sky like raindrops, each carrying the power of a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator!

not good!

Black Wind Old Monster's expression was solemn.

He immediately pushed forward with both palms, and the Black Wind Demon Scythe split into three. The three demon scythes were quite solid, as if each one was a real entity.

Immediately afterwards, the demonic scythe began to spin rapidly, transforming into three jet-black wheels of light, accompanied by gusts of black, malevolent wind.

boom!

boom!

Ok?

After a loud bang, most of the cyan sword shadows were easily obliterated by the black evil wind.

No.

How could this ultimate move be so weak?

I thought you were going to do a good job.

As a result, this is it?

Black Wind Old Monster had a question in his mind.

Why has Xuan Qingzi's strength not only not increased over the years, but has actually decreased?

In the sky, the rain of swords looked magnificent, but its power was actually quite ordinary.

Black Wind Old Monster raised his hand and waved it, moving the pitch-black halo to the side, and a bluish-black magic shield appeared on his body.

The rain of swords struck the protective shield.

hiss!

It hurts!

After thoroughly experiencing the light, the Black Wind Monster silently moved the light wheel back to his front.

This magic power is being used up far too quickly!

Black Wind Old Monster looked at Xuan Qingzi, his eyes flashing.

Xuan Qingzi seemed rather strange to him today, not only defending but also attacking, and the power of his sword technique was much weaker than before.

Could it be...?

That thing isn't on this ship!

Black Wind Old Monster instantly realized something and reacted.

This is all a smokescreen! It's a scam by the Qian Clan Chamber of Commerce!

"Oh no, run!"

Black Wind Old Monster's expression changed drastically. He turned to his subordinates not far away and gave them orders.

"It's too late to leave now!"

Xuan Qingzi looked at Black Wind Old Monster and a smile appeared on his lips.

A yellow pearl with cloud patterns appeared in his hand without him even noticing.

"go!"

hum!

The pearl spun rapidly in the air before shooting upwards, releasing a ring of pale yellow light that enveloped the Black Wind Monster.

It was as if he had fallen into a swamp, and his body slowed down instantly.

"Wind-Stabilizing Pearl!"

"How did you get this?!"

When the Black Wind Monster saw the yellow pearl, a look of horror appeared on his face.

A moment later, his eyes trembled, and most of his panic disappeared.

"So it was a counterfeit. You think you can kill me with just a fake?"

The Wind-Fixing Pearl is a special treasure in the cultivation world. It is not very useful to ordinary cultivators, and most cultivators have never heard of it.

But for the Black Wind Old Monster, a cultivator with the wind spirit root, it was a name that resonated like thunder.

Without him.

This is because the Wind-Fixing Pearl is specifically designed to counter cultivators with wind-spirit roots.

By enveloping him within the light barrier, not only will the power of his wind-attribute techniques be greatly reduced, but his wind escape technique will also be broken, preventing him from escaping.

They encountered the Wind-Fixing Pearl.

Those cultivators with wind spirit roots are like lambs to the slaughter.

However, a counterfeit is still a counterfeit.

If its power can reach three or four tenths of its original strength, that would be extremely good.

In today's context, it's sufficient.

"Who said I was going to kill you? I can just keep you trapped for a while."

Xuan Qingzi smiled as he looked at Black Wind Old Monster and said.

"Just as I suspected, that thing definitely isn't on this ship!"

Looking at Xuan Qingzi's expression, Black Wind Old Monster was now completely certain of his own thoughts.

"What if I'm here? What if I'm not?"

Xuan Qingzi remained noncommittal.

"Black Wind Old Ghost, let me give you a piece of advice: this matter is of utmost importance, and it's not something a mere Core Formation cultivator like you or me can handle. If you know what's good for you, then retreat now, lest you lose your life in vain!"

"Then I must thank Fellow Daoist Xuanqingzi for his concern."

The wrinkles on Black Wind Old Monster's face twitched, and he let out a few dry laughs, revealing a smile that was even uglier than crying.

Then the conversation shifted abruptly.

"But how do you know the remaining merchant ships will be safe and sound?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Qingzi's expression stiffened slightly.

not good!

This familiar feeling.

really.

Just then, a cry of alarm came from the merchant ship below:

"Something's wrong! Senior, the other merchant ships have been attacked simultaneously!"

Xuan Qingzi covered his face with his right hand and let out a long sigh.
