Chapter 116: Chapter 116 I Have a Primordial Spirit Too

Translator: 549690339
The Sword Qi storm battered Li Xiaobai’s body, shredding his clothes into strips and fragments.

[Attribute Points +2000…]

[Defensive Power: Seventh revolution of the Indestructible Golden Body (67000/70000) ready to advance.]

Just three thousand more to advance. This old man’s Primordial Spirit is quite powerful, the attribute points gained are almost catching up to those of my senior brothers and sisters.

“Old man, not bad moves, but you still can’t hurt me.”

“In this world, only Liangchen can hurt himself,” Li Xiaobai said indifferently.

Qin Lan’s expression changed drastically. Not even the Nascent Soul Sword Devil could harm him in the slightest, could it be that this person also had the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Stage?

Impossible, that’s absolutely impossible!

“Sword Demon senior, allow me to assist you!”

“No need.”

An aged voice sounded, startling Qin Lan. This was the first time she heard the Sword Demon speak. Whenever she summoned him before, he never spoke to her.

“I, Sword Demon, am but a mere soul fragment left for the Central Province juniors to command. Since my birth, I have never been defeated. I had thought that leaving the soul fragment within the sect would ensure peace, but never did I expect that after becoming a soul fragment, I could barely achieve a victory.”

“Those who summon me are all juniors, vessels too weak, my true power not even one ten-thousandth displayed.”

“Today, fortunate to witness a true young talent, I should enjoy myself to the fullest!”

The old man’s words shocked the cultivators present.

The name of the Sword Demon is known to no one on the Immortal Spirit Continent; he was insanely passionate about the sword, choosing to perfect his Sword Dao to the pinnacle, even if it meant forsaking his cultivation level.

He killed countless enemies in his lifetime and, later, as he attempted to break through the spatial barriers, was slain by a master from the Upper Realm.

Unexpectedly, this Sword Demon had left his soul fragment within the Xingtian Sect, which was surprising indeed.

“It is rumored that the Sword Demon was once an Immortal Realm expert, his sword piercing through the spatial barriers, a feat truly astonishing and brilliant!”

“Yes, what a pity he was still killed by a mighty being from the Upper Realm…”

“Unexpectedly, Immortal Qin carries with her such a devastating weapon.”

On the stage, Qin Lan’s face suddenly changed. She sensed her strength rapidly draining away, and at the same time, the Sword Demon’s Outer Soul’s body solidified more and more. It seemed she had guessed what was happening.

“Sword Demon senior, please show mercy. Qin Lan is the Dao companion of Xing Mohan, the son of Xingtian Sect’s Sect Master…”

“Silence!”

The Sword Demon rudely interrupted Qin Lan’s words.

“Are you teaching me what to do?”

“By summoning me, you should have anticipated this.”

“The disciples of Xingtian Sect are becoming more and more incompetent. When I was twenty years old, I had already reached the peak of the Spirit Realm, and you, not even at the Nascent Soul Stage, are truly worthless!”

The Sword Demon’s expression was cold, his sword radiating dazzling light. Qin Lan’s face turned pale as paper, her Spiritual Power completely drained by the Sword Demon’s Outer Soul in just a few breaths’ time.

But that feeling of power dissipating rapidly did not cease; after draining her Spiritual Power, the Sword Demon began to extract her life essence. In an instant, her foundations were damaged, and her realm plummeted.

Filled with terror, she knew that if her life essence were completely drained, she would die on the spot.

Wasn’t it said that the Sword Demon wouldn’t harm his host?

What is happening now?

“What is your name?” the Sword Demon asked.

“I am Ye Liangchen,” Li Xiaobai answered.

“A fine name, take this, Sword Twenty-Three, Sword Burst!”

The Sword Demon’s longsword crumbled inch by inch, turning into speckles of starlight, piercing through the clouds with a fierce aura, and suddenly slashing towards Li Xiaobai.

Excitement flickered in Li Xiaobai’s eyes, withstand this sword, and he would be able to break through to the next level of defensive power.

Although the Sword Demon was strong, his power was still at the Nascent Soul Stage, and even after drawing upon Qin Lan’s power, it wasn’t enough to break this shackle, no big deal.

Sword Qi tore through the void, leaving behind trails of afterimages, passing straight through Li Xiaobai’s chest.

This was Sword Intent, not a physical entity, specifically aimed at severing one’s Primordial Spirit.

[Attribute Points +5000…]

[Defensive Power: Eight turns of the Nine Revolutions Undying Golden Body (2000/80000) able to advance.]

[Ding, detected that the host is continuously under attack by Sword Intent, skill upgraded: Nine Revolutions Undying Sword Intent to the fifth turn.]

Both defensive power and Sword Intent skills upgraded simultaneously, thanks to this Sword Demon in front of him. In this world, although there were many who wielded swords, there were too few true Sword Cultivators who were adept in the Sword Dao.

Upgrading skills required constant battles with masters of the same type to hit oneself, which was somewhat more difficult compared to upgrading defensive power.

“My attack is actually ineffective against you, what is your cultivation level, could it be an ancient cultivation technique?”

The Sword Demon’s brows furrowed slightly; he couldn’t see through Li Xiaobai, who did not emit the slightest spatial fluctuation from his body.

“It’s Liangchen’s turn to make a move now, you’re called the Sword Demon, Liangchen has a Blood Demon over here, let’s see who’s more formidable.”

Li Xiaobai didn’t pay any attention to the old man’s words and waved his hand lightly, activating a skill.

Blood Demon Transcendental Venerable!

In an instant, the stench of blood filled the entire arena, and the shadow of a blood-colored demon materialized behind him, with dozens of Blood Demon tentacles convulsing wildly, like a demon that had been starving for a long time.

The Sword Demon’s gaze became intent: “This is the Blood Demon Transcendental Venerable, are you an Evil Cultivator?”

The rest of the spectators were also shocked, their mouths agape. Their impression of Li Xiaobai had been that he had a strong ability to take a beating, only for them to discover, in the blink of an eye, that he too had materialized a Primordial Spirit Phantom.

However, not just anyone could handle this Primordial Spirit. The Blood Demon Primordial Spirit was something even few Evil Cultivators would dare to touch.

The reason being that during visualization, one could easily be assimilated by the Blood Demon’s evil aura and become a killing machine.

The Elders on the stage were also very surprised. Nowadays, there were cultivators who chose the Blood Demon Transcendental Venerable as their Primordial Spirit and even managed to control it successfully.

“In this day and age, to still see such an evil Primordial Spirit, I thought only Evil Cultivators practiced this thing.”

“Who, in their right mind, practices the Blood Demon Primordial Spirit…”

“No, wait, in this day and age, where are there people in their right minds.”

“This youth is extraordinary, his future achievements are boundless.”

“Only, this Primordial Spirit is a bit small, seems like he has only just entered the Nascent Soul Realm. Compared to the other prodigies, there’s still some distance.”

“Even so, that’s still impressive, the Blood Demon Primordial Spirit is hard to cultivate…”

On the stage, Li Xiaobai lit up a Huazi, took a drag, and exhaled a smoke ring.

Waving his hand towards the Sword Demon’s direction, he spoke indifferently, “Get him.”

“Roar!”

The Blood Demon Primordial Spirit roared angrily, its body radiating with a brilliant red light, and the dozens of tentacles behind it turned into lightning, striking towards where the Sword Demon stood.

The Sword Demon had exhausted his strength with that one sword just now and had no intention of blocking the Blood Demon’s attack.

Allowing the blood-soaked tentacles to pierce through his body, his figure turned ethereal.

“Boy, your strength is not bad. I’ll wait for you in Central Province for another battle.”
