This was a powerful spiritual talent that, combined with the person’s fierce Blade Intent, specifically targeted one’s Divine Soul Spirit.
An ordinary Ninth Grade Martial Cultivator would probably lose consciousness the instant they received this teacup.
Chu Xisheng’s ‘Vengeful Blade Intent’ reacted instantly, not only helping him withstand the Divine Thought Impact but also spontaneously beginning to counterattack.
The Magic Artifact ‘Gathering Spirit Cloak’ also shone with spirit light at that moment, enhancing Chu Xisheng’s Divine Sense Thought.
The powerful Blade Intent, gathering all his Spiritual Sense Thoughts, surged like a raging tide in a counterattack, causing the porcelain bowl to explode into a fine powder with a ‘bang’.
Chu Xisheng recovered from his brief trance and, through the dust of the flying porcelain, saw a mocking and triumphant smile on the face of the green-shirted man in front of him.
This person had already slid out a Short Saber from within the sleeve of his right hand, with a speed like the flash of aurora lightning, aiming to stab Chu Xisheng’s forehead.
At this moment, everyone in the inn was startled, all looking over at the sound of the porcelain bowl shattering.
Zhou Liangchen, who was sitting by the side, was full of doubt.
Something’s not right!
Why hasn’t Chu Xisheng made a move?
Could it be that he couldn’t react in time?
Before the Fire Bone Cave, Chu Xisheng’s Sword Speed was so fast that it only allowed his sword to be drawn half an inch.
Although the green-shirted man’s spiritual talent is tricky, his Sword Skill is still half a notch below his own.
How could this person be qualified to strike with his blade in front of Chu Xisheng?
Chu Xisheng was completely unaware of Zhou Liangchen’s thoughts; he only felt a chill over his body and an intense sense of crisis burgeoning within his heart.
The opponent’s Sword Speed was extremely fast.
He wouldn’t be able to draw his blade in time no matter what.
Chu Xisheng’s ‘Chasing Lightning Finger’ could barely handle the current situation, but it would most certainly destroy his reputation as a master.
In fact, losing his reputation as a master was the least of his worries, the key issue was that his Martial Arts Points could potentially go into the negatives.
Chu Xisheng wouldn’t be able to exchange for a Character Card either.
Based on the previous experience in the Fire Bone Cave, combining the Qin Muge Character Card with his body would require at least one breath’s time.
Without hesitation, Chu Xisheng tapped his ‘Vengeful Blade Intent’ on the screen with his thought.
He used up 95 Martial Arts Points and directly elevated his ‘Vengeful Blade Intent’ to the Fourth Level.
An explosion went off in Chu Xisheng’s mind in an instant, and a flood of information surged into his consciousness like a raging tide, nearly making him faint on the spot.
It felt as if a drill was boring into his head, almost turning his brain into mush.
However, what happened next was as Chu Xisheng had anticipated.
Just like when he had upgraded his ‘Vengeful Blade Intent’ twice previously, Chu Xisheng’s Spiritual Consciousness swelled and boiled, instantly intensifying by nearly double the strength, erupting like magma from a volcano.
‘Roar!’ A low beastly roar suddenly emanated from behind Chu Xisheng.
The Vengeful creature with the head of a dragon and the body of a jackal manifested spontaneously behind him.
It lay sprawled out, looking ferocious.
The ‘Vengeful Blade Intent’ that Chu Xisheng had condensed also materialized at that moment, causing dust to fly up near the wine table.
The heavy layer of dust on the wooden floor was lifted by Chu Xisheng’s Sword Intent, abruptly swirling and flying towards the south.
At that moment, the green-shirted man’s dagger was less than two feet away from Chu Xisheng’s forehead!
Just then, the green-shirted man suddenly grunted in pain.
A blood mark unexpectedly appeared between his eyebrows, and suddenly, a large amount of fresh blood gushed from his mouth and nose.
Not only did he completely lose his strength, but he couldn’t even maintain the inertia of the Short Saber, as an invisible force suppressed him, forcing him to kneel to the ground.
The man in the green shirt’s eyes first showed a blank expression, but then his face revealed a look of disbelief.
He had a Second Rank “Spirit Communication Heart” talent, his mental strength several times stronger than ordinary people.
Yet, just now, his Divine Sense was directly blasted apart by Chu Xisheng’s Sword Intent.
At this moment, his spiritual sense was even further suppressed by Chu Xisheng’s domineering Sword Intent, to the point where he could not even control his own thoughts smoothly.
His limbs unable to move, his soul seemed to have completely detached from his body.
Chu Xisheng looked at the dust in the bowls and dishes, sighing with regret, “What a pity for this food; I couldn’t even keep it safe.”
His mood sinking, he listlessly pushed the bowls and chopsticks in front of him forward, stood up from his seat, “Brother Zhou, I’ll leave this man to you.
Be careful not to dirty the inn’s floor.
Also, where’s my room?
Find someone to show me the way.”
Zhou Liangchen’s pupils slightly dilated, then narrowed again.
It turned out he had vastly underestimated Chu Xisheng.
This guy didn’t fail to react in time; he was simply too lazy to draw his sword!
At this time, inside the inn’s main hall, there was again a ‘hum’ sound, an uproar that even traveled outside the inn, causing a commotion in the tent area.
All the people in the hall assumed a solemn expression, focusing their attention on Chu Xisheng.
Zhou Liangchen had admitted to himself defeat by a single cut before Chu Xisheng, and Silver Patterned Tiger Lu Chen had backed down on the spot.
Although everyone was cautious of Chu Xisheng, they were still half doubtful about his strength.
But at this moment, they witnessed with their own eyes a Martial Cultivator of the Eighth Rank Lower Rank with a strong spiritual talent being directly overwhelmed by Chu Xisheng’s domineering Sword Intent.
He bled from all seven orifices and couldn’t stand up!
How strong was this guy’s actual strength?
White Eyebrow Tiger Ying Haobai, Corpse Dog Li Manshan, and Shadowless Sword Zhuo Baiyun all knitted their brows tightly, their expressions extremely grave.
Silver Patterned Tiger Lu Chen, aside from being shocked, was filled with a sense of fortune.
Luckily, he hadn’t drawn his sword earlier!
Otherwise, who knew what situation he would be in now.
If he had been harmed by Chu Xisheng’s sword, wouldn’t it ruin everything?
At this moment, Chu Xisheng’s eyes burst with fireworks.
His Martial Arts Points increased from 21 to 26.
However, looking at the illusory screen showing only 26 Martial Arts Points left and the words “Vengeful Blade Intent (Fourth Level),” Chu Xisheng wore a complicated expression, feeling like crying without tears.
The improvement of Vengeful Blade Intent was, of course, joyous.
But at the moment, the cost-effectiveness of Four Layers of Blade Intent was not high, offering him minimal help.
At the current stage, Three Layers of Vengeful Blade Intent was already sufficient.
The key issue was that he now only had so few Martial Arts Points left, how was he going to handle the situations to come?
This journey into the Secret Realm was likely to end in failure—
Moreover, he hadn’t even finished eating, and this table of food and drink was destroyed.
Today was simply a bad start, incredibly unlucky.
But the front he had to maintain, he still needed to maintain.
He had to quietly stay alone for a while, to sort through his emotions.
Zhou Liangchen nodded with an indifferent expression, “I’ll accompany you.
Someone will take care of this matter.”
Chu Xisheng obviously didn’t want to dirty his sword for this man, nor did he.
And before they slaughtered this man, they must interrogate him thoroughly, forcing him to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes.
Such matters were better handled by his uncle, Zhou Xiangshan.
A look of dejection filled Zhou Liangchen’s eyes.
This guy beside him was just too strong, so strong that it was despairing—
