Capítulo 11: Battle of Intention!
With black hair in a short boy cut, Xiaoyi contrasted with the long haired elegant Shu Yidan. Despite her jade white skin, Xiaoyi dressed in the style of a tomboy, lacking any measure of feminine beauty.
Facing his fellow apprentice-sister Xiaoyi, Shu Yidan couldn't help but feel pressured.
In terms of strength, she could cut down two ranks above herself. As a peak Qi Refining Realm, she could cut him at peak Golden Core Realm. And, he was at initial Golden Core Realm now. He couldn't take this casually.
Burning his blood essence and lifespan to take control of the defensive formation and reverse its nature to offensive wasn't a mean that he would lightly take. But now, nothing else could be done.
In the end, while he had many talismans and similar single-action measures, he couldn't use them as they would likely end up killing her. Secrets like the trace of his True Immortal Divine Sense would bring up a storm so he would rather let it be unused.
As for his ability to skip levels himself, hmm… The Qi Refining cultivation system wasn't fated with him. While he knew cultivation techniques that could help him match Xiaoyi, he hadn't currently cultivated any of them making all knowledge useless.
If he had a day to refine a Totem, he could take on Xiaoyi at an equal level, but in the few hours allowed to him, this was all he could do.
Using those few hours for dual cultivation with Feng Shiyao had ended up with him giving up most of his Golden Core realm cultivation base, but at least he could control his Golden Core cultivation base now. That at least let him sacrifice his blood essence and take control of the formation. As for what came now…
"Interesting, interesting! To think you would anticipate my bloodline's power to match peak Golden Core Realm and use a trick to attain the power of Nascent Soul! I truly underestimated you! Well, it isn't as if I have battled a Nascent Soul before either…" The surprise was only at the start. Xiaoyi's little eyes narrowed and battle mania flowed in them.
Shu Yidan didn't reply, immediately pointing a finger at Xiaoyi. The vital qi within his body and the outside wind controlled by the formation came together, forming one giant green finger to strike Xiaoyi.
Xiaoyi simply drew a sword from nowhere, and the finger was bisected. Then, a sudden force suppressed her from all her surroundings, as if the gravity of the world multiplied in a blink!
However, the power could not bind Xiaoyi, as rays of deep yellow sword light emanated from her body, easily crushing the power of the divine finger!
Shu Yidan expected this. He couldn't control the power of the formation in an offensive manner since it was never meant to be used that way, and he didn't have skills capable of perfectly using such mighty power in the opening attack either. On top of that, he never reached Nascent Soul Realm in the past life, only attain its equivalent in totem cultivation…
"As expected from the one sent to kill me, everything you have perfectly counters me. That's Earth-Elemental Sword Intent, and the perfect counter for the Wind Divinity Suppression Finger. Why are you still bothering to fake Qi Refining Realm, girl?" Shu Yidan couldn't give up his posture of blaming Xiaoyi as the assassin.
But his cold voice brought a faint smile from Xiaoyi. In response, she only drew her sword, causing mountain of earth-yellow sword light to cleave at Shu Yidan!
Shu Yidan flicked another finger, and a sheer hole was blasted through the mountain. Xiaoyi immediately changed her sword grip and the ultrafast invisible wind bullet was parried on the tip of her sword.
Crack. The sword tip shattered. Xiaoyi's face changed.
Without bothering to reply, Shu Yidan struck out with another finger. The first finger was of suppression, the second was piercing and the third… A infernal noise screamed through Xiaoyi's ear.
It was a moment of distraction. Xiaoyi's conscious mind was frozen yet unconscious mind grasped the sword in a guard. Shu Yidan was before her, and his finger was thrust towards her once more.
But the finger attacking her was unlike anything else before. It held the dominating power of suppression, the invisible ultrafast power of piercing and the strange disconcerting power of sound. All three came together in that one finger, yet they were only supporting another, mightier force.
Sparks burst from the yellow-aura of the sword Xiaoyi held, as it parried the invisible strike meant to pierce. The fourth force arose from the blade. It was the azure blade light that revealed itself after the invisibility was ripped off.
"…So even a person like you has mastered Blade Intent, huh? Even my Mountbatten Sword Intent couldn't weather it…" Despite having held off the strike, Xiaoyi uttered a contradictory statement with a wry tone.
Then, the sword light covering her sword shattered, a precursor to the sword breaking. The yellow light of sword intent covering Xiaoyi's figure seemed to disappear. The cause was an azure windy light upon Shu Yidan's unveiled blade. It wasn't any other force, but an intent similar to Xiaoyi's sword intent.
It was blade intent, Azurewind Blade Intent.
It was the blade intent that remained to guard the cultivation residence atop Azurewind Peak, named after its former master. It was not Shu Yidan's own, just like the Mountbatten sword intent was not Xiaoyi's own but her blood lineage ancestor's.
But unlike Xiaoyi's sword intent which was bound to her blood and obeyed her will, the Azurewind blade intent could only be unleashed within this cultivation residence, only by its master and only after using the lineage technique left behind by the former master. Using even the weakest technique to incite the blade intent still required the cultivation of a Nascent Soul realm.
Before using the Nascent Soul blade technique, he had to strike out with the Wind Divinity Suppression Finger to build momentum. And the final strike of the Wind Divinity Suppression Finger which was capable of mighty force, was only used to link to the Nascent Soul blade attack. All this was to suppress the backlash from a Nascent Soul attack to the utmost.
Yet, the backlash wouldn't be completely eliminated. Ignoring the qi within his body that seemed to desire piercing him with blades from inside out, Shu Yidan struck down the blade in his hand at Xiaoyi's defenseless figure, so that it could absolutely suppress the power of her blood lineage sword intent. Blood blossomed like a flower.
Still, the little girl before him only grit her teeth and stared defiantly at him.
Shu Yidan ignored it and began examining her body, finally seizing a spatial ring from her. The last resort of Xiaoyi went unused due to her absolute confidence in her sword intent. Bringing out a magical rope from his own spatial ring, he tied Xiaoyi up. Tying her down to a chair, Shu Yidan sat upon another chair, glaring down at the little girl from a higher seat.
"…You are actually a Qi Condensation Realm. You actually possess a bloodline Sword Intent. You can absolutely become a Sect Master or Ancestor's disciple of any sect in this world. Why would you give all that up to assassinate poor, little me of all people? How have I wronged you?" Wearing an expression of shock, Shu Yidan began proceeding according to the plan that he had planned earlier.
