Chapter 87: Chapter 88: Honing Skills
“Elemental Weapon Armament!”
Except for Lin Qian, everyone else, including Ye Xin, saw their Elemental Artifact Hearts and Elemental Components draw upon the power of their Martial Souls, transforming into bladed weapons.
“Little Qian, aren’t you going to use Elemental Weapon Armament?” Seeing Lin Qian with bare hands, Ye Xin asked in surprise.
Lin Qian turned his head, nodding in response, “Indeed, if I use Elemental Weapon Armament, I won’t be able to train myself…”
If he really used Elemental Weapon Armament, Lin Qian was confident that his strength would increase significantly; if that were the case, these undead would pose no challenge whatsoever in his eyes.
These undead were a great opportunity to train himself; how could he possibly pass it up? If he really used Elemental Weapon Armament, where would he find the chance to train himself?
“Showing off.” Hearing Lin Qian’s response, Ye Xin rebuked coyly, gripping her armed Elemental longsword and charging toward the undead in front.
The moment Ye Xin rushed out, Lin Qian’s eyes revealed a trace of astonishment.
He could clearly see that the Elemental longsword in Ye Xin’s hands was perfectly formed. Its dark blue hue and the vague presence of starlight embedded on it, along with the reflection of the Starlight Soul Power, made it appear even more mysterious.
“Ancestor Level Martial Soul!” Seeing the extraordinary nature of Ye Xin’s Elemental weapon, Lin Qian recognized it at once, “Xinxin is… really remarkable.”
The mysteries of the Ancestor Level Martial Soul, he had heard very clearly from his Master Wei Wushuang.
The signs on Ye Xin’s body clearly indicated that her ancestors must have once been peerless powerhouses; the Ye family had, for some unknown reason, declined.
Yet when it came to Ye Xin, she was fortunate to awaken an Ancestor Level Martial Soul, tapping into her ancestral bloodline’s power.
Ye Xin, charging toward the undead, swung her starlight-enhanced sword, slashing upon the pale corpse draped in tattered clothing.
Her starlight sword, charged with starlight, struck the undead body, emitting the sound of metal clashing.
Ye Xin’s beautiful eyes sharpened, her arms flexing with strength, bursting forth with powerful energy and a sharp intent, severing an arm of the undead in an instant.
Following that, Ye Xin spun around and slashed at another undead, her dazzling sword qi cutting through the night like a brilliant trail of stars, instantly ripping apart several undead.
Ye Xin’s graceful sword dance left Lin Qian both in awe of her strength and captivated: “My fiancée, she really is beautiful.”
“Roar!” Just as Lin Qian was making admiring remarks, an undead with flickering worrisome eyes rushed in front of him and roared.
Lin Qian’s expression turned stern, and with a punch, he sent the undead flying: “Don’t block my view of my wife!”
The area around Ye Xin was surrounded by bright starlight; the other undead simply couldn’t get anywhere close to her.
Seeing this, Lin Qian also relaxed and turned his gaze toward Lei Qian and the others.
Not even to mention Lei Qian, just Ding Zhirong and the other four on their own were among the peak of Wanxiang Sect’s Inner Sect Disciples.
After undergoing Lin Qian’s brutal training, each had succeeded in breaking through the limits of the Nirvana Realm, significantly enhancing their strength; they had no problem handling the current situation.
Moreover, compared to handling Fu Heng, they did it with even more ease.
“These undead, their weakness lies in their Dantian.” Lin Qian shouted to everyone and also charged into the group of undead.
Hearing Lin Qian’s voice, a glint showed in the eyes of Ye Xin and the others.
Even if they had previously beheaded the undead or pierced their hearts, it had been in vain.
Sure enough, after heeding Lin Qian’s advice and piercing the undead’s Dantians, the creatures collapsed lifelessly to the ground like deflated bodies.
The people who realized this situation breathed a sigh of relief.
These fearless and hard-to-kill corpses now had a known weakness, which made dealing with them much easier than before.
It was while watching Fu Heng’s fierce combat that Lin Qian discovered the weakness of the corpses.
Earlier, when Fu Heng used his “Kill Four Directions” move, out of the four corpses that were hit, only the one with its abdomen shredded and pierced did not rise again.
Thus, Lin Qian understood that the weakness of these corpses was clearly in the Dantian area of their abdomens.
“Ha!” Lin Qian shouted, his Thunder Soul Power in his body stimulated to the utmost, and he charged towards the corpses ahead of him like a Thunder War God.
“Roar…” Facing Lin Qian, the corpses, not knowing what fear was, responded with roars and charged at him as well.
One of the approaching corpses raised its hand, its sharp nails flickering with a blade’s cold gleam, extremely sharp, reaching for Lin Qian.
Without a second thought, Lin Qian met the claw with a punch, hard against hard.
The bodies of the corpses were incredibly tough, and the impact of their collision emitted a huge noise.
However, the corpse’s knife-like nails shattered, and the strong bones in its arms, as solid as polished steel, were directly blasted to pieces.
After landing the blow, Lin Qian quickly drew back his fist and immediately launched another punch, smashing towards another shoulder of the corpse.
Just from the sound alone, one could tell that the entire shoulder bone of the corpse had shattered.
Immediately after, Lin Qian delivered two lightning-fast kicks, breaking the corpse’s shinbones.
“I hit!” A sharp cry came from Lin Qian as he slapped the face of the corpse in front of him.
With the crisp sound of a slap, the corpse’s head spun three times and slumped to the ground.
Although the corpse was still trying to move and continue fighting with Lin Qian, its body could no longer do so.
Lin Qian relied on his fists and feet to engage the surrounding corpses in close combat, honing his own martial skills.
From beginning to end, Lin Qian avoided attacking the corpses’ weak points, opting instead to shatter their bones so they couldn’t move.
“Little Qian… is he perhaps a little too powerful?” Ye Xin, occasionally looking over out of concern, was astonished upon seeing Lin Qian’s methods.
After clashing with these corpses, Ye Xin could clearly feel the pressure; the numerous foes were extremely troublesome with high combat instincts.
Whenever she tried to target the corpse’s weakness, the opponent would block her at the cost of losing an arm, closing in on her.
Even if both arms were disabled, the corpses would push forward at the risk of being slain, creating opportunities for others.
These walking dead were simply killing for the sake of killing.
However, Lin Qian completely disregarded the weakness, focusing solely on honing himself and thinking about how to win.
Suddenly, it was as if Ye Xin understood, abandoning her fixation on exploiting the corpses’ weak points and focusing simply on winning!
The battle raged on, and Ye Xin, having come to this realization, handled herself with even greater ease.
But at that moment, a long, thin howl arose, and the attacking corpses suddenly stopped and retreated, orderly giving way and parting to reveal a figure stepping forth.
