Chapter 159 - Armament-refining Convention (1/2)

Just by relying on a sword intent clone, he was able to fight against four divine-level star beasts, and he had already killed one. If it was not for his own intervention, he would have killed a second one.

That method was simply a heaven-shaking good fortune.

Also, the sword intent contained in the sword ray earlier was definitely not an ordinary thing.

In the nine provinces, to be able to reach such a level, was it someone who practiced sword intent? Could it be one of those two?

In his life, that was the first time Ye Xiao had seen such a top-notch martial arts expert.

He was indeed very strong!

If his clone was already so strong, then how strong was his main body?

Was it not heaven-defying?

Indeed, the nine provinces had many talented people.

He was still a little lacking.

It seemed like he would have to read more books every day after returning, adding an hour every day.

He would strive to see if he could reach Xiantian ninth grade within half a year, the peak of the divine sect.

After that, he would consider advancing to the King realm!

"Your sword art cultivation is truly stunning. To be able to reach such a level at such a young age, this Lu really admires you."

It was indeed sword saint Lu Qingshan.

Ye Xiao thought to himself.

The person surnamed Lu was also a sword practitioner and was so strong. Other than Lu Qingshan, there was definitely no one else.

However, it did not matter. After all, he had used a disguise technique, so he did not know who his identity was at all.

After he returned to Jianghai city, he would return to his original appearance and peacefully read books in the library. There was no need to worry about him finding trouble with him.

"Sword Saint Lu, you flatter me."

"You know me?"

Lu Qingshan was a little surprised.

"Sword Saint Lu Qingshan is ranked ninth on the Dragon list. I naturally know of you."

Lu Qingshan was silent for a moment, feeling slightly awkward.

"The person ranked ninth is my best friend, the Saber God, Li Liushui. I'm only ranked tenth."

"..."

How awkward. They had misremembered the other party's ranking on their first meeting.

"Ahem, it's alright. It's just a difference of one rank."

Lu Qingshan nodded and did not delve too much into it. He only opened his mouth once more and said,

"Since you're a human sword art expert, why did you stop me from killing these star beasts just now?"

Ye Xiao looked down.

"This junior needs to refine some medicinal pills. I need these three divine-level star beasts as ingredients, which is why I stopped Senior Lu from taking action. I hope that you won't take offense."

"I see. That's fine. As long as it's to eliminate the threats to the nine provinces, it doesn't matter who makes a move."

"Thank you."

The three divine-level star beasts immediately felt like they were on the verge of collapse when they heard the conversation between the two.

They originally thought that they had met their savior, but before they could leave the wolf's den, they had entered the tiger's den in the blink of an eye.

"This person is extremely powerful, even stronger than Lu Qingshan's clone. It seems that the three of us won't be able to escape today. Let's split up and escape. If we can escape, then we will have won."

"Let's go."

After the three star beasts communicated with their minds, they immediately prepared to use their movement techniques to escape.

However, it was a pity that when Ye Xiao arrived at that area, he had already used the Big Dipper's Grand Mystery to firmly lock down the few of them in place. As long as they moved slightly, even if they communicated with their spiritual energy, they would all be captured by Ye Xiao.

Therefore, the instant they were prepared to escape, Ye Xiao also launched an attack in that moment.

Sword Saint Lu Qingshan, who had been through hundreds of battles, naturally sensed the actions of the few star beasts that wanted to escape. He had just wanted to warn Ye Xiao, but before he could say anything, thousands of sword lights shot out from under Ye Xiao's feet, in the next second, hundreds of thousands of sword lights shot out consecutively.

Boom, Boom, boom...

Like lightning and thunder, the sword rays fell rapidly and hit the three star beasts.

"Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah!"

Accompanied by a burst of screams, and a fierce explosion sound, the three star beasts were instantly killed by Ye Xiao.

"So strong!"

Lu Qingshan's pupils, again constricted, although he was only a sword intent clone but also can not help but have a slight tremble.

Ye Xiao was actually one step ahead of him. He had discovered the movements of the three divine-level star beasts below. Moreover, he had launched an attack in the instant that the other party wanted to escape, even killing the other party in that exact second.

Lu Qingshan believed that his original body could also achieve such things. However, the problem was that the strength of his original body was already at Xiantian ninth grade, the peak of the divine sect!

As for Ye Xiao…

He was still not at Xiantian ninth grade!

He could actually be this strong.

That child was truly heaven-defying.

Too strong.

His future achievements would definitely not be inferior to his. No, he might even be able to reach the top!

At that moment, Lu Qingshan was so excited that his body began to tremble slightly.

Such a powerful prodigy had actually appeared in the nine provinces!

That was too exciting!

He took a deep breath. Before his sword intent disappeared, he forced himself to ask,

"You have good cultivation techniques. May I ask, what is your name and who is your master?"

Ye Xiao naturally would not reveal his identity. He thought for a moment about the few sentences that he could only remember in his mind, and then he said indifferently,

"The cold river and the lonely shadow, the old man from the rivers and lakes, why should we meet each other before?"
