Another Cliché Cultivation Story

Chapter 78

The purple blades eclipsed the sky and bought the attention of everyone in the Ardent Yin Sect.

By this point, almost every disciple was standing outside their immortal caves and watching the battle between Ji Xian and Fang Yu. A majority of their faces were flushed red from the stimulation of the fight.

Among them, was a familiar figure. She had a pretty face and looked to be eighteen or nineteen. This young woman was Bing Yi whom Ji Xian and Xia Lihua had met in Solitude City!

Currently, her heart was palpitating wildly. Due to the distance and her low cultivation, she wasnt able to see what was going on in the sky, only an explosion of shockwaves one after another, but this was enough for her heart to race. When the purple blades appeared, she almost forgot to breathe. The pressure they emitted was simply too stifling!

Suddenly, she had a terrifying thought.

What if these blades fell onto the sect?

Bing Yi wasnt the only one with this thought, there were many others as well. They didnt believe for a second that the formation around the sect could protect them.

Each crystalline blades were half a meter long and glowed with a soft purple hue. Their edges looked frighteningly sharp and they exuded a piercing aura. Just one of these blades was probably enough to slice the formation in two so what would tens of thousands of them do?

Annihilation!

The disciple's hearts chilled at this thought.

At the Core Yin Pavilion, the Elders were also staring at them in horror.

Thats the Myriad Yin Blade from our sect. How is it possible that this person knows it? An old Elder whispered with a trembling tone.

No one knew how to reply to her.

Shao Qinglian was stunned. She was aware of her own capabilities. If she went all out, she could probably create four to six thousand Myriad Yin Blade at most. So for Ji Xian to suddenly materialize tens of thousands of them out of thin air left her nothing short of speechless.

The Myriad Yin Blade is only an auxiliary Divine Art but why do they seem so deadly in his hands? A man is actually using our sects technique even better than us sigh how frustrating.

While everyone was showing their nervousness, Shao Qinglian was still rather calm. The blades may look threatening, but she didnt believe Ji Xian would actually use them.

After staring at them for a moment, she moved her gaze over to him. It was only after seeing his image did her heart began to flutter.

Ji Xian was currently enveloped in a mesmerizing purple flame, His glowing long hair was dyed the same color and it was slightly floating upwards. It was because of this that Shao Qinglian was finally able to get a better glimpse of his appearance. She saw his sword-like eyebrows and captivating black eyes. They looked as dark as the chaos, yet at the same time, bright as the sun. She was also able to capture a hint of his otherworldly aura that made it seem like he wasnt from this world.

Immortal she muttered in a trance. This was her first impression after seeing him in that state.

Shao Qinglian took a big breath and exhaled, the mountainous pair that she was carrying on her chest softly moved as the result.

Then, she shook her head and laughed at herself for saying such a ridiculous thing.

Immortals dont exist.

No one can escape the clutches of death, not even cultivators, who were going against the natural order. For as long of a life as they have, they are only capable of delaying the inevitable, and when that day comes for them, even with all the power that they have attained in their lifetime, they can only helplessly watch as the Heaven take back what was borrowed.

While Shao Qinglian felt foolish, she couldnt look away from Ji Xian. His tall figure burned into her mind.

She inwardly sighed.

What a dangerous man

Li Yifan was also watching the same figure in the sky with a serious expression. She had probably shown more expression today than in the past couple of years combined.

She was currently deep in thought.

It shouldve been impossible for any man to use the Ardent Yin Sects Divine Arts, yet, this person was not only able to use the Myriad Yin Blade, but also the Spark of Glacier Flame.

The latter isnt a Divine Art, its an ability that comes from the Flame of Ice Scripture. How is it even possible for him to emulate it without knowing the cultivation method? Unless he does know it?

How is he doing this? Just pure talent? A physique? Or an ability from a bloodline? As far as I know, theres only one bloodline that could possibly allow someone to do something like this but its far too arbitrary. Not to mention, the clan with that bloodline isnt even from this Universe

Also, if he can learn and copy Divine Arts, this explains why he can use Nether Water despite obviously being a human. He mustve met a Nether!

Li Yifan recalled the uneasy feeling she got earlier and she frowned.

Theres something odd about the Nether Water that he has in his possession. I need to find out its origin.

Xiao Yueyin stood beside Xia Lihua with a comical expression on her face but it wasnt enough to take away from her beautiful appearance.

I watched and I learned.

As Ji Xian said these words, she finally understood why he was acting so out of character. He was demonstrating to Fang Yu why he was able to use Nether Water!

Xia Lihua gently laughed. She knew what Xiao Yueyin was thinking but it was only half accurate. She has realized Ji Xians true purpose for all this.

The Ardent Yin Sect owes him a favor. Naturally, he will ask to see their library, however, he definitely wont be able to get access to their best cultivation methods and Divine Arts, after all, no sect was stupid enough to give a stranger that right. These books were attained through countless generations of blood and effort, so why would they allow an outsider to reap the benefits of their hard work? It doesnt matter how big a favor they owe, these books were only for members who have contributed greatly to the sect.

Ji Xian knew this so he decided to provoke Fang Yu on purpose to show him everything herself.

Fang Yu was the First Yin Pavilion Master, with her position, she should know all the top Divine Arts of the Ardent Yin Sect.

And while Ji Xian only saw the Flame of Ice Scripture, it was enough for him to satisfy his curiosity.

Xia Lihua was inwardly surprised at his approach as this wasnt his usual style. He rarely has any restraints when it comes to this kind of matter, most of the time, he would just forcefully take whatever he wants. Why did he behave so differently now?

As she contemplated, a white snowflake suddenly landed on her hand.

She took a look at it before lifting her head. It was still heavily snowing.

Does he just really like this place?

Xia Lihua had a thoughtful expression. Ji Xian seems to have some kind of attachment to the snow. Even in their first encounter, he was staying at the Aether Sect, which was located in a region with the most snowfall.

She stared at his back and sighed. Ji Xian's reluctance to speak of his past didnt bother her but worries her instead. He has either gone through something traumatic or is hiding a big secret. Either way, it didnt matter, she will always be by his side to weather through the storm.

Fang Yu was like a frozen statue as she narrowed her gaze on Ji Xian. She had also come to the same conclusion as Xiao Yueyin. This whole event was just so he could prove why he was capable of using Nether Water!

Her killing intent began to fade away while her cold expression slightly soften.

Ji Xian noticed this and smiled.

He dispelled the flame on his body before slowly flying toward her.

Fang Yu didnt move and waited. Her gaze never left his figure.

When Ji Xian arrived in front of Fang Yu, he asked her something that was completely unexpected, catching her off guard,

He pointed upwards, Its pretty isnt it?

His previous antagonism disappeared. Even the arrogance he had displayed briefly was gone, it was replaced by a casual and friendly tone instead.

Fang Yu was in a daze from his words. She subconsciously followed his finger and looked up. The crystalline blades gleamed from the moonlight and projected a purple brilliance into the night sky, combined with the countless specks of stars that shined with their own radiance, it was a magnificent sight.

However, these blades were all pointing at her and giving off a piercing pressure so it was hard for her to agree with him.

Ji Xian saw her hesitation and softly laughed. He suddenly gestured his hand into a gun and aimed it at one of the blades.

Fang Yu watched him in confusion.

Bang! He cried out childishly and even pretended to jerk his hand back as though there was a recoil.

Following his action, that blade exploded! It created a dense and beautiful purple mist that took up a huge portion of the sky. After the first blade, another blade suddenly exploded! And like a chain reaction, one after another blew up, producing even more of the enchanting sparkly mist.

Pretty, isnt it? Ji Xian asked again.

Fang Yus mouth was slightly opened as she watched the display of lights in the sky. After staring at it for a moment, she looked back at Ji Xian. For some reason, she felt this man in front of her was far more attractive than what was happening above her.

She observed him for a second before nodding.

Yes it is, she said with an almost unnoticeable smile on her face.

Xiao Yueyin watched the two of them from a distance away and complained.

Hmph! He did all of that just to prove a point and decided to end things with fireworks.

Hes so

Extra. Xia Lihua finished her sentence,

The two women turned to each other with beautiful grins on their faces and laughed.
