AST 1898 - Fifth Level of Xuantian Seal (1/2)

The Dragon-capturing Hands were like a dominant assassin which controlled its victim. Furthermore, it also didn’t have many limitations and consumed very little energy. The reason why Qing Shui used such a technique was that there was a chance that he might be able to squeeze the target to death. In addition to that, the Dragon-capturing Hands was also a technique which couldn’t be avoided.

Though it was said to be unavoidable, Qing Shui knew that nothing in this world was absolute. Though all along, no one has been able to dodge from his Dragon-capturing hands, he knew it was because his opponents weren’t strong enough. Given enough strength, they would still be able to dodge it.

Pa!

Deep down, Qing Shui was feeling very happy. This was because the Grand State Master didn’t manage to avoid it. He immediately got captured by Qing Shui. However, he didn’t get squeezed to death. There were various factors which determined whether or not the victim would be squeezed to death. In fact, the possibility of this happening was quite small. The larger the gap in strength between the user and the victim, the higher the chance it would happen. For example, an egg and a rock. Naturally, the possibility of the two respective objects being crushed would be different.

Actually, the Grand State Master was still in shock. He found it hard to believe that Qing Shui managed to weaken him so much. After getting half of his speed reduced, he felt as if he has fallen into the swamp. It felt like he was carrying a huge mountain on his back.

At the moment when Qing Shui’s attacks landed on him, he was once again shocked. There have been so many weird incidents today… Weird to the point that it made him feel like escaping. Even after boosting their strength, It was clear their strength was supposed to be lower than his by half. Moreover, the difference in strength couldn’t be balanced out by merely accumulating the number of warriors. Under normal circumstances, with his own strength that was worth seventeen million Dao Force, he could go up against a bunch warrior with strength worth six million, eight million or even ten million Dao Force. It was not something which could be measured by numbers alone… It was not as simple as one plus one equal two.

But unfortunately, the things which he thought was impossible to happen actually happened right in front of him. To top it all off, he was actually a bit frightened and got captured by the enormous claw which his opponent unleashed. The Grand State Master abruptly released his aura and destroyed Qing Shui’s claws.

By now, the woman was also standing beside Qing Shui. In her hand, she was holding Qing Shui’s Poison Dragon Dagger. As of now, she was slowly getting used to it. She also understood why this man dared to challenge the Grand State Master. He might truly be able to defeat the Grand State Master.

“Hey woman, I will act as a shield for you. I will still have to rely on you to injure him.” Qing Shui’s voice came through.

“Ah!” The woman let out an unusual noise.

This noise caused Qing Shui to tremble. He didn’t turn around, instead, it made him felt like running away. There was a kind of charm which words couldn’t describe in that voice, particularly the way in which she let it out. It somehow resembled a moan. However, Qing Shui didn’t have the opportunity to turn around and enjoy the woman’s expression.

“Why are you screaming? Let’s make our move now, I can’t beat him alone.”

Qing Shui said in an unhappy tone. By now, the Grand State Master has long since broken free from Qing Shui’s Dragon-capturing Hands. A pair of huge blades appeared in his hands. These were two blades with two completely different shapes. Not only did they differ in size and shape, but even their color wasn’t the same.

The one in his left hand was a single-handed blade that was about three feet long. It was dark jade and there was a narrow bloody red gorge on the body of the blade. Qing Shui knew that it wasn’t used to contain blood, the dangerous aura could be felt being emitted from there.

The one in his left hand was a nine-feet long huge blade. Its surface was filled with tight, tiny sawtooth. The tiny sawtooth was brimming with dark green colored light. This kind of light was transparent like a cold ice. The Grand State Master looked very intimidating with both of his swords. He was also giving off an eerie aura.

This time, the Grand State Master didn’t say anything. He immediately thrust the huge blade in his arm forward and began spinning very quickly. He formed a strong tornado that was about the thickness of a human body as he neared Qing Shui and the woman.

This tornado alone already had the sharpness which could cut through all things, not to mention it was also accompanied by poisons of unusual colors. Qing Shui didn’t fear poison, nevertheless, he also wouldn’t recklessly test it. Arrogant people were those that could die easily. Besides, by now, Qing Shui already knew that there were many people that were more powerful than him in this world. Even for himself, he could only be considered to have scratched the surface as an expert.

Nine Palace Steps!

Nine Palace Laws!

Qing Shui casually dodged it and extended his arm to grab the woman along. At this moment, he didn’t have time to care whether or not he had direct contacts with the woman. A lot of times, warriors mustn’t act so reserved. Otherwise, they would be better off doing embroidery in an attic.

Qing Shui managed to grab the woman’s arm. Her figure followed him along and moved in a very unusual way. As a result, that she didn’t know about the Nine Palace Laws, she was amazed by Qing Shui’s speed and movements. After all, he was too fast and his movements were very unpredictable.

The Grand State Master didn’t intend to kill Qing Shui with one strike, but he was enraged after seeing Qing Shui held the hand of the woman whom he has chosen for himself.

Green Scaled Ghostly Fire!

The surface of the blades looked even darker now. This kind of dark green resembled the dark green color that a holy person usually had. Legend has it that this was precisely the color of Ghostly Fire. Meanwhile, a Ghostly Fire immediately emerged from the sword. It was changing colors irregularly. On top of the fire, there was a dark black circle. It seemed like an empty hole was burnt out from it. It was giving out fearsome swallowing noises.
