Chapter 450 - Chapter 450: Chapter 442 Immortal Master? _1 (2/2)

Qin Niu nodded in agreement.

“Haha, Brother Qin Niu, that’s some real dedication! Your cultivation is a bit weaker, so try not to stray too far from me. The Widowmaker’s character isn’t great, but her strength is incredibly formidable. Her cultivation must be very close to that of an Immortal Master.”

Gongsun Jin saw how readily Qin Niu was cooperating and found himself growing more and more fond of him.

He was conversely concerned for Qin Niu’s safety.

Soon, they reached the side of the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

From a distance, there didn’t seem to be much to notice. They only saw the Black Tiger Gang Leader and the Nine Insects Gang Leader exchanging blows with sword and blade, fighting quite casually.

It was only upon approaching the Black Tiger Gang Leader that they could feel the terrifying force emanating from the clash between the two sides.

Every exchange subjected Qin Niu’s body to violent tremors.

It was as if an invisible battering ram was slamming into him with force.

Qin Niu’s cultivation was greatly inferior compared to these powerhouses.

This sobering realization highlighted his own shortcomings.

Having powerful Insect Pets wasn’t enough; one also needed strong personal cultivation to last.

“Witch, prepare to die!”

Gongsun Jin, who was usually well-spoken, didn’t hesitate to call the Nine Insects Gang Leader a witch outright.

“Chatterer!”

The Nine Insects Gang Leader coldly shouted and swung her sword through the air, unleashing a slash towards Gongsun Jin.

A terrifying Sword Qi flew from the tip of her sword, like a crescent moon or a surging wave’s leading crest, striking towards Gongsun Jin.

Qin Niu felt an invisible force pressing on him, completely suppressing any thought of resistance.

It was simply too powerful.

What shocked him even more was that the Nine Insects Gang Leader could project Sword Qi from the tip of her sword. This method of attack was far more sophisticated than merely showing Sword Qi at the tip.

Gongsun Jin hurriedly raised his defenses, swinging his weapon to reveal a solidified energy blade that collided with the incoming Sword Qi.

He was using a Judge’s Pen.

It somewhat resembled a pipe for smoking.

This weapon was also a part of the odd weaponry category, used by very few.

Some scholars and scribes liked to use Judge’s Pens.

Especially those literati who acquired positions of power, and then achieved some level of cultivation, they might choose to use a Judge’s Pen.

It could be wielded as a sword, used as a pen to strategize, or even determine other people’s life and death, as well as their fate.

In the Innate Realm, powerful cultivators can display Sword Qi or Blade Qi from their weapons. At the Spirit Qi Realm, they can go a step further, condensing the Sword Qi to make it more solidified, turning it into an energy blade at the end.

Without a doubt, an energy blade is far more powerful than mere Sword Qi.

Boom!

After the massive explosion, Gongsun Jin’s right hand trembled nonstop, and his complexion turned slightly pale.

When he looked at the Nine Insects Gang Leader, his eyes were filled with fear.

“Witch, I didn’t expect you’ve touched the threshold of an Immortal Master. It seems you might already possess the cultivation of an Immortal Master, right?”

He asked tentatively.

The response was another Sword Qi strike from the Nine Insects Gang Leader.

It’s best not to upset women for no reason. If you do, the consequences can be like that of Gongsun Jin’s, enduring one Sword Qi attack after another, until they kill you.

“Damn! Heart as poisonous as a widow’s, they didn’t call you the Widowmaker for nothing!”

Gongsun Jin screeched in a high-pitched voice, once again raising the Judge’s Pen to defend.

He had no choice but to stand his ground, as there was no way to dodge.

The speed of this Sword Qi was too fast; with his current agility and speed, he couldn’t evade it. One hit from the Sword Qi would dismember him on the spot.
