Chapter 212 The True Power of the Bone Scraper
The two men in the field started fighting again.
Xia He turned the blade, held the knife in reverse, and chopped down at Zhang Lingyu's head.
The pink light on the blade carries an inexplicable deterrent power.
With the blessing of the ability to devour true Qi, neither the Yang Five Thunders nor the Golden Light Curse have any ability to defend against this dagger.
Seeing this, Zhang Lingyu gritted his teeth, gathered the lightning in his palm, and slapped it heavily towards Xia He.
He actually wanted to use the method of exchanging injuries to force Xia He to withdraw his attack and fight back.
A smile appeared on Xia He's lips. Instead of retracting the dagger in her hand, she moved it even faster.
Chi-
The sharp edge cut through the flesh, leaving a scar.
At the same time, Zhang Lingyu's thunder palm also approached Xia He's abdomen. If there was no protection, Xia He would definitely be seriously injured by this move.
At the critical moment, Xia He stretched out his left palm and slapped heavily on Zhang Lingyu's thunder palm.
boom--
After a loud bang, Zhang Lingyu's body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.
Xia He put away the dagger safely and looked at the opposite side quietly.
"How is it possible? How can you block my Yang Wu Lei with your bare hands?"
Zhang Lingyu slowly got up from the ground, blood gushing from his chest. His white Taoist robe was covered with dust, making him look quite disheveled.
"What means did you use?" he asked in disbelief.
"That's not some trick I used. I'm just simply blocking it with my true Qi!" Xia He said calmly.
"True Qi blocking?" Zhang Lingyu showed a shocked expression.
"Fourth brother? What's going on?"
On the stands, Zhang Chulan asked,
"Miss Xia clearly didn't take back the dagger, so how did she block Zhang Lingyu's Yang Lei?"
"Can this magic weapon split into two parts?"
Xu Si stared at the field in a daze.
"That shouldn't be the case! With Zhang Lingyu's cultivation level, how could ordinary Qi blocking possibly stop his attack?"
he muttered.
Xu Si was a little confused about the current scene.
On the other side,
"What kind of trick is Foxy using?" Feng Shayan turned to look at Jin Renfeng and asked, "Why don't I understand?"
"Just like Xia He said, she just relied on her powerful true Qi to block the thunder attack." Jin Renfeng said with a smile.
"How is this possible?" Feng Shayan was a little bit unbelievable. "If it was someone with weak cultivation, I would believe it, but that was Zhang Lingyu, a senior disciple of Tianshi Mansion!"
"If Foxy can do this, doesn't it mean that her life cultivation is far higher than Zhang Lingyu's?"
"How is it impossible?" Jin Renfeng looked at Feng Shayan quietly, "Why do you think Xia He's life cultivation is weak?"
"She entered the Tao after me!" Feng Shayan said.
"But she practices very quickly, and she is a congenitally extraordinary person, so the late entry into the Tao will not have such a big impact on her!" Jin Renfeng said.
"In fact, Xia He's life cultivation has always been very strong. It's just that you didn't pay attention to it before."
Xia He's talent for cultivation is extremely high, and because the Bone Scraping Knife has honed her state of mind, her progress in cultivation can be described as rapid.
Among the many extraordinary people in the world, her cultivation speed is second only to Jin Renfeng.
Nowadays, the only people who can compare with her in terms of life cultivation are some top-notch people of the Mesozoic era.
In the original timeline, Xia He could easily block the invasion of Zhang Lingyu's Yin Five Thunders. It is not surprising that she can now withstand the Yang Five Thunders with her bare hands as an enhanced version.
Feng Shayan seemed to be suddenly enlightened, and looked at Xia He with a strange look in her eyes.
In the meeting hall, Zhang Lingyu stood up, and the golden light slowly dissipated from his body, replaced by the light of thunder.
Since the Golden Light Curse couldn't stop the dagger, continuing to maintain it would only waste his energy. It would be better to actively dissolve the Golden Light and use Thunder Magic to fight the enemy with all his strength.
"Why, you still don't admit defeat?" Xia He asked playfully.
"Miss Xia's strength is truly admirable." Zhang Lingyu said calmly, "I admit that I was just looking at the world from a narrow perspective before."
"But it's not that easy for me to admit defeat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped out and took the initiative to attack.
Xia He brandished his dagger and attacked head-on.
The blades flashed, lightning flashed, the figures of the two people flickered and changed in the field, and the moves in their hands changed in a thousand ways.
In order to find an opportunity to win, Zhang Lingyu changed his strategy. He completely gave up defense and instead used thunder magic to attack the opponent.
He dodged Xia He's attacks as much as possible and avoided any contact with him.
Like an assassin.
Although he was at a disadvantage by using this method, he cleverly avoided the restraint of the scraper.
As the intensity of the fight increased, after more than ten moves, Zhang Lingyu discovered the limitations of the "bone scraper".
"I see. Is there a limit to the speed of absorbing true qi?"
As a palm lightning struck out, seeing that Xia He did not completely absorb all the lightning with the dagger, Zhang Lingyu seemed to have realized something.
With a change of mind, he gathered his true energy in his palm and used all his strength to unleash palm thunder.
Chi-
Bright white lightning shot out.
Xia He raised the dagger, and as the pink light flashed, the power of thunder was continuously absorbed.
Zhang Lingyu did not stop, his hands flashed with light, and he continuously released lightning.
crackling——
The lightning pierced the air, making a terrifying sound.
As more and more lightning appeared, the speed at which the dagger absorbed it gradually failed to keep up with the speed at which it was released.
A flash of lightning broke through the blade's attraction and hit the person holding the knife behind him.
Seeing this, Xia He tilted her head slightly to avoid the attack.
"Not bad! You reacted so quickly!"
She took back the scraper and said jokingly.
Zhang Lingyu did not answer either. He increased the power of his thunder magic, using all his strength in every move. Even if it meant wasting his true energy, he wanted the lightning to break through the defense of the bone scraper.
Faced with this saturation attack, the Bone Scraping Knife gradually lost its power, and Xia He had to distract himself to deal with the incoming lightning.
The situation was at a stalemate.
Snapped--
After the fists and palms crossed, the two figures separated.
Looking at the figure opposite, Xia He let out a long sigh.
"Even though you'll run out of energy sooner or later if this drags on, it's still a bit embarrassing to win like this."
As she finished her words, pink true energy emerged around her body.
The bright colors reveal endless confusion and temptation.
"I didn't want to use it, but now I want to solve it as soon as possible, so I might as well use it!"
"Miss Xia is too arrogant. The outcome of this battle is still undecided, but I don't necessarily mean I will lose!"
Zhang Lingyu said coldly.
Xia He did not respond. She bent her knees slightly, held the knife in both hands, and her whole body was like a spring, ready to go.
The next moment, she jumped up and flew out like an arrow.
Zhang Lingyu was prepared. He stretched out his hands and two bolts of lightning shot out from his palms.
Chi-
The lightning struck the bone scraper and was absorbed by the blade. Xia He ran towards the other side without stopping.
Soon, lightning broke through the blade's attraction and hit Xia He.
A pink light emerged, blocking the lightning attack.
After just a moment, Xia He arrived in front of Zhang Lingyu.
The lotus-like arm brought up a strong gust of wind, and the blade light chopped down towards the opponent's chest.
In an instant, golden light appeared, and the golden light spell that had been no longer used appeared again on Zhang Lingyu's body.
Chi-
At first, the bone scraper smoothly broke through the defense of the Golden Light Curse, but soon, the blade encountered obstacles.
In order to make the Golden Light Spell work, Zhang Lingyu gathered all the golden light in his body to one location, causing the local thickness to more than double.
With doubled defense and true energy consumption, Jin Guang blocked the attack.
Seeing that the defense was effective, Zhang Lingyu gathered thunder in his palm and hit the person opposite him.
Xia He retracted the dagger, blocked the palm, and slapped the golden light again with his left hand at lightning speed.
boom--
There was a dull sound, and pink vital energy poured in from the previous gap. Under the powerful force, the golden light broke.
As the gap appeared, a trace of pink true energy passed through the gap and contaminated the body inside.
Zhang Lingyu reacted quickly, and the moment his defense was broken, he immediately withdrew.
After a successful attack, Xia He smiled and stopped chasing.
As soon as Zhang Lingyu stood firmly on his feet, he felt a surge of anger rising from the bottom of his heart.
"This is?"
Desire rose up and the hot feeling made his whole body tremble.
Knowing that he had been tricked, Zhang Lingyu immediately used his true Qi to resist.
However, as soon as the pink true qi entered the body, it immediately disappeared without a trace and could not be found.
In desperation, Zhang Lingyu could only rely on his concentration to suppress it.
In the stands, Jin Renfeng looked surprised.
"Why did Xia He use this trick? Didn't she say before that she wouldn't use the ability of her resting muscles in the competition?"
Since the effect of relaxing muscles was too insulting to others, Xia He had no intention of using this ability at the Luotian Ceremony.
It is too easy to make people become lustful during the competition and do ugly things, which will lead to great hatred.
In order to avoid trouble, Xia He took the initiative to seal this ability.
The reason why Bai Shixue was hit before was because she took the initiative to use her food energy to devour Xia He's true energy, not because Xia He took the initiative to attack.
But Xia He didn't expect that with this Lingyu, she would break her rules on her own initiative.
Feng Shayan snorted coldly, "You have seen Zhang Lingyu's condescending attitude. With that vixen's temper, how could she tolerate this? Even though she doesn't show it on her face, I don't know how angry she is in her heart!"
"She's taking action now, probably just to embarrass Zhang Lingyu!"
"Is that so?" Jin Renfeng nodded. "Well, let's do it! It was Zhang Lingyu who was rude first. It wouldn't hurt to teach him a lesson."
"I just hope Xia He doesn't go too far, otherwise it will be a bit troublesome to make enemies with the Tianshi Mansion."
. . . . . .
"Master Zhang should have heard that I can control desires. You are now victim to this trick!"
Xia He explained in a relaxed manner, fiddling with the dagger in his hand.
"If a normal person falls for this trick of mine, their lust will grow stronger and they will eventually become useless!"
"But Taoist Zhang is a senior disciple of Tianshi Mansion after all. Considering your status, I didn't use my full strength. I just let you get slightly contaminated."
"According to the degree, it is still possible to get rid of it on your own."
"But it depends on whether you have enough concentration!"
"It's just a little desire. I have been practicing Taoism since I was young and my heart is firm. How could I be disturbed by your evil ways?"
Zhang Lingyu said firmly, with a fearless expression on his face.
"That's right. How could a dignified Taoist like Lingyu care about a little lust?"
Xia He smiled playfully and threw the dagger in his hand into the air.
As a magic weapon, the bone scraper can naturally be controlled remotely like ordinary magic weapons.
Zhang Lingyu raised his palm and shot out a thunderbolt. Realizing that his situation was not good, he tried to end the battle quickly.
The short sword was placed in front of Xia He, absorbing most of the lightning. The remaining power was blocked by the protective light.
Then the blade shot out like an arrow.
Zhang Lingyu dodged to the left, avoiding the incoming dagger, but the blade attacked from behind again.
As a last resort, he used all his strength to mobilize the palm thunder and hit the blade.
clang--
The lightning struck the blade, and the dissipated force knocked the blade flying.
Zhang Lingyu took this opportunity to get a little respite.
"Master Zhang, this is the true power of the bone scraper. You should experience it now!"
Xia He smiled playfully, crossed her arms across her chest, and used her mind to control the scraper to launch continuous attacks.
Zhang Lingyu only felt his own heat getting worse. He had to deal with the dagger's attack while suppressing his desire. With his attention split between the two, he gradually lost control.
The dagger left scars all over his body.
In a hurry, Zhang Lingyu stopped the thunder magic and used the golden light spell at all costs to resist the incoming attack.
Due to the limitation of absorption speed, the bone scraper only pierced half of the golden light before it stopped abruptly.
Zhang Lingyu stood where he was, using most of his mind to suppress the desire, leaving only a small portion of his energy to manipulate the Golden Light Spell to defend against the bone scraper.
Seeing that the opponent blocked the flying knife, Xia He was not impatient, but just controlled the flying knife to continue attacking.
As the attack continued, the scraper seemed to undergo strange changes.
The depth that the blade could penetrate became greater and greater, from the initial one foot to one and a half feet, and the tip of the knife gradually approached Zhang Lingyu's body.
"Lingyu lost!" said the old Taoist priest indifferently in the stands.
"What's going on with Lingyu?" Lu Jin looked puzzled. "The knife could only pierce one foot of golden light before, but now it's probably only one and a half feet."
"After a while, I'm afraid his two-foot golden light won't be able to stop the flying knife's attack."
"Could it be that Ling Yu was unable to suppress his desires, thus affecting the operation of the Golden Light Spell?" Tian Jinzhong asked.
"No! Lingyu has been practicing since he was young, and the Golden Light Mantra is the foundation of our sect. He has already turned it into instinct! Desire interference cannot affect the golden light."
The old Taoist priest said calmly, "It should be the problem with the knife!"
"That bone scraper is absorbing true energy faster and faster!"
"Can something like a knife become stronger and stronger?" Lu Jin asked in surprise.
"It should be the special ability of that magic weapon!" said the old Taoist priest. "The abilities of magic weapons are varied, so it's not surprising to have one or two special ones."
"It can also become stronger automatically. This so-called 'bone scraper' really has some tricks!" Lu Jin nodded.
On the other side, Jin Renfeng had a satisfied look on his face.
Xia He's bone scraper is one of the magic weapons he has refined.
It has the ability to devour the enemy's Qi, which can not only devour attacks but also break through defenses. It can be called a top-grade magic weapon that combines offense and defense.
However, it also has huge flaws.
The initial speed at which the Bone Scraping Knife absorbed the true Qi was not fast, even slower than Bai Shixue's Qi. As long as the attack exceeded the limit, the Bone Scraping Knife's defense could be easily broken.
But this does not mean that the Bone Scraper is weak. In fact, it has another hidden ability.
The speed at which the Bone Scraper absorbs energy is not fixed. As long as the person holding the knife can shake the enemy's spirit, the speed at which the Bone Scraper absorbs energy will increase.
The so-called intention comes first. If the mind is disturbed, the true Qi will naturally reveal a flaw. The bone scraper is a special magic weapon that aims at this gap to attack.
