Under the powerful Sword Intent, the killing intent behind Qian Duoduo vanished, and the black fire in front of him shrunk another circle.
Clearly, Helou Chuang had no choice but to take Yu Yixiang's move.
The He Lou Clan members holding the seals became even more timid, their Spiritual Qi weakening by another thirty percent.
Qian Duoduo's Golden Rooster Sword, however, accelerated continuously, entering the front of the He Lou Clan member's chest and exiting through his back.
But a wisp of black fire landed on Qian Duoduo's body.
The fire stuck to his blue robe and instantly spread.
This was like roasting a living person.
Qian Duoduo gave a bitter smile and rolled on the ground.
There was snow on the ground, and snow could also extinguish fire.
As he fell, Qian Duoduo caught a glimpse of Helou Chuang wielding his Golden Spear, colliding heavily with Yu Yixiang's silver sword.
"Boom!" Yu Yixiang's face turned pale, and she spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood.
Just as Qian Duoduo was about to get up to save her, a dark shadow suddenly appeared beside him.
The dark shadow held a jade ruler and chopped down at Qian Duoduo.
This was the last Condensing Qi Stage Level Seven behind Helou Chuang, who wanted to take advantage of Qian Duoduo being on fire to pick up a freebie.
Qian Duoduo's eyes widened, and he channeled all his Spiritual Qi, grabbing him in front of him.
At the same time the jade ruler struck Qian Duoduo's chest, the sneak attacker was also embraced by Qian Duoduo, his head pressed into the black fire by Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo twisted his body, pinning him beneath him, and raised the Wolf Fang Black Iron Hammer he had just taken out.
With one hammer strike, a splattering sound immediately came from beneath him.
The jade ruler fell to the ground, and the sneak attacker lost his breath.
Qian Duoduo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up.
Wang Longyu supported Yu Yixiang, panting heavily.
Yu Yixiang held a wooden sword in her hand, staring intently ahead.
Her silver sword, she didn't know where it had flown off to.
However, in front of Qian Duoduo and the others, only Helou Chuang remained!
"What did I tell you, Senior Sister, Senior Brother, the chance to turn the tables has come."
Qian Duoduo extinguished the last spark on his body.
Although he had several burns, his heart felt extremely comfortable.
Helou Chuang swung the long spear in his hand, "I underestimated your Refining Spirit Sect just now; you still have some spirit.
However, if you think you've won, then you're greatly mistaken."
He formed a hand seal with his left hand and poked himself more than ten times.
"Quickly stop him! He's using a Mystic Art to increase his cultivation!" Yu Yixiang shouted urgently.
Qian Duoduo recalled his Golden Rooster Sword, and just as he was about to make a move, Helou Chuang's eyes suddenly opened, and two streams of blood-red light shot out.
The surrounding snow around him splattered in all directions, and an aura far surpassing the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation spread throughout the mountain forest.
"You've reached Foundation Establishment?" Wang Longyu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Not quite, but close enough," Helou Chuang replied proudly.
He thrust his Golden Spear into the ground, and the seven motionless He Lou Clan members on the ground shriveled at a visible speed.
The Golden Spear then transformed into a blood-red spear.
The spear had also upgraded; previously it was a low-grade artisan artifact, now it was a high-grade artisan artifact.
"Qi Condensation Great Perfection," Yu Yixiang whispered.
"Come, let me send you to the underworld." Helou Chuang twirled the blood-red spear a few times, nodding in satisfaction.
He raised his right hand, and the blood-red spear stirred the air in the mountain forest, seeming to come alive.
Helou Chuang pointed at Qian Duoduo, "Go."
The shaft of the blood-red spear drew an arc and thrust towards Qian Duoduo.
"Come on." Qian Duoduo gritted his teeth, his Yongfu Henggui achievement cultivated to its maximum, and the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear appeared in his hand.
The moment the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear appeared, the surrounding air immediately dropped, and Yu Yixiang and Wang Longyu, who were close by, shivered involuntarily.
In his Spiritual Awareness, the tip of the blood-red spear was getting closer and closer.
When it was still ten feet away, Qian Duoduo suddenly extended the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear.
Spear tip against spear tip!
Helou Chuang had a cold smirk on his face; whether it was the person or the spear, he had absolute confidence.
In his opinion, this duel would probably be an instant kill.
However, Qian Duoduo knew it definitely wouldn't be.
"Ding." A not-too-loud collision.
Both spear shafts bounced back.
However, the blood-red spear immediately faded, returning to its original Golden Spear form.
The purifying function of the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear had taken effect, revealing the blood-red spear's original form.
Helou Chuang's eyes widened, and he gripped the spear shaft tightly with both hands, twisting it forcefully as he thrust forward again.
"Ah!" Qian Duoduo also spared no effort, continuously pouring winter-green Spiritual Qi into the spear shaft.
Spear tip against spear tip, there was no retreat.
Whoever retreated would die, whoever lost would die.
"Crack..." A crisp sound rang out, and the Golden Spear broke apart from the middle.
"No!" Helou Chuang roared in fury.
Just as he was about to leap back, the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear had already pierced his chest.
He had just flexed his muscles, intending to withstand this blow with his Qi Condensation Great Perfection body, when the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear had already passed through his back.
"Dan artifact..." Helou Chuang gripped the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear with his right hand for a moment, then it fell.
He seemed to have found a reason for his defeat; although his eyes were still wide open, his ferocious face became placid, and his body stopped moving, rigid as a block of ice.
Losing to a person might be shameful, but losing to a Magical Artifact was acceptable; when he went to the underworld, he would feel less humiliated.
With Helou Chuang's breath gone, Qian Duoduo could no longer support himself and knelt down with a thud, lying on his side on the ground, the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear tossed aside.
Seeing Qian Duoduo collapse, Yu Yixiang and Wang Longyu were startled.
"Jin *Shidi*." Yu Yixiang held Qian Duoduo's head and placed it in her lap.
Wang Longyu pried open Qian Duoduo's mouth and put a Qi Return Pill inside.
A pleasant fragrance wafted from his nose, which could only be Yu Yixiang's.
Behind Qian Duoduo's head, he was resting on something soft and very comfortable.
Qian Duoduo recovered for a short while, he was almost able to sit up, but it felt so good to just lie there, so he breathed roughly and stayed for a while longer.
"I'm fine." Qian Duoduo pushed away Wang Longyu's hand.
If he didn't push it away, he would have started prying open Qian Duoduo's teeth.
"I was a bit exhausted just now."
Yu Yixiang's face inexplicably flushed as she helped Qian Duoduo sit up.
Her movements had some of Wang Meiruo's gentleness.
"Look, have we turned the tables?" Qian Duoduo said with a smile, but a smile pulled at the wound on his chest, and a mouthful of blood gushed out again.
Taking out one Ninth Level of Qi Condensation, two Eighth Level, and four Seventh Level in one go, this turnaround was incredibly difficult, truly like a dream.
Stealing a glance at Jin Buhuan in the Golden Toad, Qian Duoduo thought: "Being a hero is really hard; I almost ended up joining you."
Yu Yixiang anxiously pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from Qian Duoduo's mouth.
Wang Longyu glanced at the Wolf Fang Black Iron Hammer and the Cold Flame Pure Snow Spear on the ground, "Jin *Shidi*'s Magic Treasures, each one is more powerful than the last."
"It's nothing, I refined them all myself." As his Spiritual Qi slowly recovered, Qian Duoduo gained some confidence and replied politely.
Wang Longyu gave a thumbs up, "Awesome.
This spear is probably a Dan artifact; did Junior Brother refine it too?"
"Of course." Just as Qian Duoduo spoke, he suddenly felt a lightness behind him; Yu Yixiang had stood up.
Fortunately, Wang Longyu was quick-witted and supported Qian Duoduo with his hand, otherwise Qian Duoduo would have almost fallen back onto the cold ground.
"I'm going to find my silver sword." Her voice turned cold.
This woman, she instantly went from gentle to ruthless.
"—Hmm, right, she might think I'm bragging again and remember the bet where she lost the Magic Treasure to me.
I haven't been a First-Rank Artifact Refiner for long, how could I suddenly refine Dan artifact? That's a Third-Rank Refiner's job.
It seems I'll have to find an opportunity to explain this, after all, they are now comrades who share life and death."
Qian Duoduo thought to himself.
A moment later, Yu Yixiang found her silver sword and walked back, "Let's heal our injuries as we walk.
The Helou Family will definitely send more and stronger people to hunt us down."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo and Wang Longyu immediately stood up.
They had just managed to turn the tables; they couldn't afford to lose again.
