The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Chapter 228: White Bone Sword Array, Disciples’ Performance
The disciples all set off.
Ye Feng was left alone at the mountain peak.
He yawned as he looked at the refining furnace that had been active for most of the night, and just when he was about to take a short rest, he suddenly heard a “clang”.
The lid of the refining furnace flew open.
A white light surged from the furnace, lifting nine dazzling bone swords, each wrapped in special array patterns, overlapping with each other.
“It’s a success!”
Ye Feng was overjoyed.
After his trip with the Myriad Islands Alliance, he had gained a total of one supreme grade spirit stone, four hundred middle grade spirit stones, and many refining materials.
Now, after using some of the refining materials, one-third of the white bone blocks, and over a hundred middle grade spirit stones, Ye Feng successfully forged this set of White Bone Sword Array.
All nine bone swords were middle grade spiritual artifacts.
When the nine swords united, their power was no less than that of a supreme grade spiritual artifact.
[White Bone Sword Array: A full set of middle grade spiritual artifacts]
[Function: Sword Shadows, Nine Swords Unite]
[Note: A special array made from the bones of a peak Demon General, engraved with unique Spirit Attracting Formations. Once bound, it can be driven by thought alone, regardless of cultivation level.]
Ye Feng took out a bone sword.
“Sword Shadows!”
He suddenly thrust the bone sword forward, and it instantly transformed into nine sword shadows, indistinguishable as to which one was the real sword and which were the illusions.
Rip!
The nine sword shadows struck at once, smashing a giant rock into smithereens, demonstrating immense power.
“Nine Swords Unite!”
Ye Feng pushed out the remaining bone swords at the same time, and all the sword lights merged in an instant, forming a huge ten-meter-long sword that cut through the sky, creating a massive sword qi that extended for hundreds of meters, even splitting the clouds above.
“Its power isn’t as great as the Five Elements Spirit Sword, but it’s not far off.”
Ye Feng was very satisfied.
He stored away the White Bone Sword Array and turned his gaze to the refining furnace.
[Upgrade Energy: 19.3%]
“The energy needed to upgrade to a supreme grade spiritual artifact is indeed substantial,” Ye Feng muttered, taking out the Heaven-Asking Mirror, ready to watch the battle from afar.
In the sky.
The Deputy City Lord and Shi Lei’s group were flying at full speed.
“Friend Shi Lei, for the upcoming sparring, how about we let the one chosen by this city lord go first?” the Deputy City Lord asked, looking at Shi Lei next to him.
“No problem,” Shi Lei nodded. “However, as the Sect Master Uncle instructed, if the person you choose cannot win, then the subsequent battles will all be left to us.”
“Friend Shi Lei worries too much; we are not weak,” said a muscular youth with a sunny and confident appearance, laughing loudly.
This person was a disciple of the Deputy City Lord, at the Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement.
“Hmm, you guys go first. If everything goes normally, we from the Misty Sect will only need to send four,” Shi Lei nodded.
As the head senior brother, he had one quality.
Stability!
Ye Feng, observing through the Heaven-Asking Mirror, secretly nodded his head.
“Shi Lei doesn’t have much talent and seems mediocre, but it’s precisely because of this that he’s mature and stable, indeed the best choice as the head senior brother.”
…
Above a forest spanning tens of miles.
The Deputy City Lord saw the Nanwu City’s City Lord, who had already been waiting, as well as the unfamiliar grey-robed elder standing next to Nanwu City’s Deputy City Lord.
“Nanwu City’s City Lord, I trust you’ve been well,” the Deputy City Lord greeted with a cupped fist salute.
“Humph! Spare us the pleasantries. I’ve already arranged the arena. Let’s start the competition now,” the Nanwu City’s City Lord said curtly, stroking his long beard and then pointing to a stone platform on the ground, three meters high and a hundred meters in length and width.
“Since you’re in such a rush, let’s begin!” the Deputy City Lord landed with his people, facing the group from Nanwu City across the stage.
On Nanwu City’s side, a young man with bright eyes and sword-like eyebrows took the stage.
He held a sharp sword, and his entire being radiated a strong sword qi, giving off an aura of being a formidable opponent.
“He really looks like a disciple from Qingyun Sect, but he’s not wearing any disciple robes, perhaps intentionally disguising himself,” the Deputy City Lord frowned, then turned to the muscular youth and said, “Ren Liu, you take the first battle.”
“Yes.” Ren Liu, the muscular youth, ascended to the arena, displaying his Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement without holding back.
However, the young man holding the longsword showed no surprise, instead wearing a ferocious smile, not taking Ren Liu seriously at all.
“Begin!”
The City Lord of Nanwu City announced.
Clang!
The sword-wielding youth suddenly launched an attack, his Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement aura explosively unleashed, numerous sword qi interweaving and approaching at an astonishing speed.
Ren Liu was shocked, his hands forming seals, conjuring several layers of light screens around him.
Crackle!
The result was disastrous.
Ren Liu’s light screens were as fragile as paper, torn asunder by the sword qi of the sword-wielding youth, and then a streak of sword light swept across his chest, sending him tumbling out of the arena and spitting blood without cease.
“Ren Liu!”
The Deputy City Lord quickly helped him up, his mouth twitching.
“It can be basically confirmed that the opponent is a Qingyun Sect disciple.” Mo Ying whispered without change in expression.
The Deputy City Lord asked in a lowered voice, “What should we do next?”
Shi Lei stepped forward and said, “Now that we’ve confirmed the opponent is a Qingyun Sect disciple, there’s no need to probe any further. For the second fight, I’ll go up.”
“We’ve been targeted, be careful.” Mo Ying suddenly spoke up, causing Shi Lei and the Deputy City Lord to startle.
“Why?” Shi Lei asked, puzzled.
Mo Ying pointed at the stone arena and said, “The people from Qingyun Sect must have anticipated that we from the Misty Sect would make a move, so they made the arena out of a special stone that renders the spell ‘Earth Escape’ ineffective.”
Hearing this, everyone realized the situation.
In the camp of Nanwu City.
Elder Six of Qingyun Sect stroked his beard with a smile and said, “Heh, the Sect Leader really has divine foresight, knowing that Misty Sect disciples would come. I took precautions in advance to prevent you from using ‘Earth Escape.’”
“So clever!” The City Lord of Nanwu City flattered.
Hearing this, Elder Six of Qingyun Sect laughed proudly.
At that moment, Shi Lei took to the stage.
As soon as he went up, he showed off his Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement cultivation.
Even with average talent, under Ye Feng’s gold-burning offensive, Shi Lei too had broken through to this realm.
“A disciple of Misty Sect is merely at the Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement, how weak!” The second Qingyun Sect disciple scoffed, holding a longsword, his cultivation at the peak of Eighth Layer of Qi Refinement. Though not as strong as the first, his strength was not weak either.
“Watch the sword!”
After the City Lord of Nanwu City announced the start, the Qingyun Sect disciple swiftly attacked, with several fierce sword lights crossing tens of meters in an instant, nearly cleaving Shi Lei.
Clang!
The sword qi suddenly collapsed.
Upon closer look, everyone saw a Lower Grade Spiritual Artifact shaped like a tortoise shell floating above Shi Lei’s head, his body also protected by a defensive shield similar to the Mysterious Turtle, easily blocking the sword lights from the Qingyun Sect disciple.
This was the First Grade Spell “Mystic Shell Shield” and the Lower Grade Spiritual Artifact Mysterious Turtle Shield.
“He has a defense artifact too?”
The City Lord of Nanwu City’s eyes widened. “Utterly shameless!”
The Deputy City Lord, relieved, taunted the City Lord of Nanwu City, “You call for outside help; isn’t that even more shameless?”
“Nonsense, we didn’t invite Qingyun Sect disciples!” The City Lord of Nanwu City blurted out in excitement, accidentally spilling the beans, and was sternly glared at by Elder Six of Qingyun Sect.
On the platform.
“How can this tortoise shell be so hard?”
The Qingyun Sect disciple kept attacking with his sword, finding that he could not break through the defense at all.
Shi Lei formed a seal with one hand and said, “I’m simultaneously activating the defense spell and the defensive artifact. My own defense can block a Demi-transformed Demon Beast; why would I fear you? Come on, try and slash me!”
“I refuse to believe this!” The Qingyun Sect disciple, with eighteen swords in one second, found each strike did no damage and was unable to shake Shi Lei. On the contrary, he exhausted most of his spiritual power, showing signs of fatigue.
Seizing the opportunity, Shi Lei, behind the Mysterious Turtle Shield, executed the “Wind Spirit Step,” closing the distance instantly and ramming the Qingyun Sect disciple, causing him to spit out blood and tumble out of the arena.
“We won!”
The Whitefloat City side cheered.
Those in the Nanwu City camp had ashen faces.
