After the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar sucked Qin Qiao's blood, it emitted a ferocious power. The thick smell of blood was nauseating. Anyone who looked at the scimitar would feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
It might have been an illusion, but Qin Qiao's aura seemed to have increased, faintly reaching the edge of the intermediate stage of the Qi Nucleation realm.
"Destroy!"
Qin Qiao shouted coldly. The scimitar in his hand became a jet-black ray of light, heading straight for Qin Xiaoyou. Everywhere it passed, the black fog lingered and did not dissipate. It was very strange.
Qin Xiaoyou's expression was solemn as she stared at the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar. She could feel that the evil scimitar was somewhat different from before. It could already threaten her life. However, she was not afraid, because Mo Wen had said that if she wanted to become a strong practitioner, she had to go through many hardships before she could achieve great things.
Moreover, Qin Qiao had a powerful weapon, but so did she!
With a flick of her finger, a silver-blue ray of light flashed, directly breaking through the black fog and colliding with the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar.
With a crisp clang, the aggressive black ray of light suddenly stopped, revealing the scimitar. On the scimitar, a layer of deep blue ice had solidified, sealing the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar.
A look of surprise flashed in Qin Qiao's eyes. He knew how powerful the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar was. There was actually something that could actually seal the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar in ice. He fixed his eyes on it. It turned out to be an exquisite hairpin. The blue and silver hairpin was magnificent. At the end of it was a snake's head, but it was strangely ferocious.
That was Mo Wen's Silver Serpent Freezing Pin. It was a rare and exceptional hidden weapon in the world. It was famous in the world and had killed countless strong practitioners. It was definitely a terrifying weapon. However, there were not many people who knew about this fearsome item now. After all, this item had been silent for many years. No matter how powerful its reputation was, it was something that happened many years ago.
Mo Wen had gifted all twelve Silver Serpent Freezing Pins to Qin Xiaoyou as a defensive item. Although the Silver Serpent Freezing Pin was exceptional, it was tasteless in Mo Wen's hands. After all, he had the Sacred Fire Sword. On the contrary, he rarely used the Silver Serpent Freezing Pin.
"Break it for me!"
Qin Qiao shouted coldly. A powerful Inner Qi surged out of his body and entered the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar. Immediately, the scimitar emitted a black light and shattered the blue ice that sealed it. The next moment, Qin Qiao's silhouette flashed. He pounced on Qin Xiaoyou and prepared to do it himself.
Although Qin Xiaoyou had an extraordinary weapon, he did not think that she would be a match for him just based on that.
With just a flash, Qin Qiao appeared in front of the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar. Grabbing the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar, his figure flashed again and appeared near Qin Xiaoyou. The scimitar in his hand slashed downwards, and a gust of cold wind surged. Suddenly, a glaring black light exploded from the scimitar. In the next moment, it formed a terrifying saber aura and crashed directly towards Qin Xiaoyou.
With the enhancement of the Jet-Black Soul Saber, the power of Qin Qiao's casual attack was astonishing. It was enough to threaten the life of an ancient martial art practitioner in the beginning stage of the Qi Nucleation realm. Qin Xiaoyou did not dare to go head-on against the Qi of the Saber. She would not have the upper hand if she tried to fight it head-on. Hence, her figure turned into a few shadows and disappeared in a flash. The next moment, she had already appeared ten meters away.
Although the Jet-Black Soul Blade was able to discern her true form based on the fluctuations of her soul, her movements were extremely nimble and nimble. No one could match up to her.
"Where are you going?"
Qin Qiao's eyes shone brightly, and the Inner Qi in his body surged even more intensely. A gust of black fog surged out from the Jet-Black Soul Saber and instantly spread dozens of meters. It actually sealed off the surrounding area and formed a small space.
Almost at the same time, Qin Qiao pounced forward. The scimitar in his hand slashed again, and the saber aura appeared immediately.
Qin Xiaoyou realized that the black fog that enveloped the surrounding area had a very strong repulsive force. She tested it out, but within a short period of time, she was actually unable to escape from the black fog. Moreover, the black fog had a very strong corrosive force. Once she entered it, her skin would experience a very strong burning sensation. This was under the condition that she had her Inner Qi protecting her body. If it had been an ordinary person, her flesh and blood would have been corroded and melted.
However, at that moment, the enemy was right in front of her. The jet-black saber aura had arrived, giving her no time to break through the black fog. With no other choice, Qin Xiaoyou could only wave her hand. A dark claw suddenly appeared and grabbed the jet-black saber aura that was attacking her.
If it had been a normal saber aura, it would definitely have been crushed into pieces in an instant against the power of the Tai Yin Claw. However, the saber aura released by the Jet-Black Soul Saber was not simple. Moreover, Qin Xiaoyou's cultivation was not high, so not only did she not crush the saber aura, but under the vibrations of the saber aura, it shattered bit by bit and dissipated in the air.
However, this had also bought Qin Xiaoyou a lot of time. She waved her hand, and more than ten Tai Yin Sword Qis flew out from her sleeves and directly slashed at the black fog. Immediately, the black fog tumbled and a hole was opened up.
"You can't escape."
Just as Qin Xiaoyou was preparing to escape from the black fog, a figure suddenly appeared behind her. It was Qin Qiao.
He did not stand on ceremony and immediately waved his saber twice. Immediately, two saber auras were produced and rushed towards Qin Xiaoyou from the left and right like two flashes of lightning. If Qin Xiaoyou insisted on escaping from the black fog and did not deal with the two saber auras, the two saber auras would definitely catch up to her and kill her on the spot.
However, after waving two saber auras consecutively, Qin Qiao's face became slightly paler. The radiance in his eyes dimmed, and his energy decreased by a lot. The Jet-Black Soul Saber did not seem to belong to him. Even if he managed to unleash a little of its power, it would still be a huge burden on him. Moreover, the black fog that sealed the space was constantly consuming his Inner Qi at a terrifying rate.
Moreover, the Jet-Black Soul Saber was constantly sucking his blood like a demon, causing his Qi and blood to drop rapidly. This state could not be maintained for long. Otherwise, before he could kill Qin Xiaoyou, he would be sucked to death by the Jet-Black Soul Saber.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to consume his Qi, blood, and essence to kill Qin Xiaoyou as soon as possible.
Huo Changxing stood up immediately and stared quietly at the fighting ring. The strong Inner Qi in his body surged, and he was ready to make a move at any time. He could tell that Qin Xiaoyou's cultivation was still low and was not a match for Qin Qiao. Although he did not know what had happened, with Qin Qiao's current state, he was afraid that even Bi Fengdi would not be a match for him. He was comparable to an ancient martial art practitioner in the intermediate stage of the Qi Nucleation realm.
However, Mo Wen remained seated in his seat. He was calm and composed, but his eyes never left Qin Xiaoyou.
Qin Xiaoyou furrowed her brows slightly. Qin Qiao's objective was obviously to force her to fight in the narrow space of the black fog. This way, the advantage of her physical movements would be greatly reduced, while the advantage of Qin Qiao's cultivation would be maximized.
However, the chances of her breaking through the black fog and escaping now were not high. If she insisted on doing so, she was afraid that she would have to pay a huge price.
After thinking for a while, Qin Xiaoyou clenched her teeth. Since he intended to trap her, then she would have to fight with him in this cage.
Qin Xiaoyou turned around gracefully and actually came back in an instant. With a wave of her hand, four or five rays of silver-blue cold light flashed and appeared, directly colliding with the two rays of Qi of the Sabre.
With a few tinkling sounds, the silver-blue rays were all repelled. However, the two rays of Qi of the Sabre that were slashing towards Qin Xiaoyou also paused for a moment. Although they did not shatter, they suddenly became a lot dimmer. It was as if there was a mass of cold air floating around them, freezing the two rays of Qi of the Sabre in the air. Yes, their speed was as slow as a snail's.
Qin Xiaoyou flashed and appeared in front of the two rays of Qi of the Sabre. With two simple and direct palms, the terrifying Qi of the Sabre dissipated into smoke.
"She actually has so many Silver Serpent Freezing Pins!"
Qin Qiao's pupils shrank slightly as he stared at the Silver Serpent Freezing Pins that were constantly revolving around Qin Xiaoyou. That thing was extraordinary. He had experienced it before, but he did not expect that Qin Xiaoyou would actually have so many. It was extremely difficult to possess one, and it was a rare treasure. However, she actually possessed five or six of them, and it caused him to be unable to help but arouse a wisp of fear. At the same time, a trace of greed arose in his heart because it would be too wonderful if he was able to seize it.
With this thought, Qin Qiao's eyes lit up. Although the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar was an extraordinary item, it did not belong to him. Being able to use it once was a great reward for him. If he could get his hands on the silver hairpin, then he would have a rare divine weapon. In the future, if he could advance further and break through to the Embryonic Breathing realm, he would be able to look down on the world.
Hence, Qin Qiao became even more desperate. He attacked Qin Xiaoyou crazily, attempting to kill her and snatch the Silver Serpent Freezing Pin.
However, although Qin Xiaoyou was not prepared to leave the black fog, she was also not prepared to fight him head-on. Instead, she used a guerilla warfare method. While she was continuously delaying Qin Qiao, she did not take the initiative to attack. For a moment, the two of them were actually in a stalemate.
As the battle continued, Qin Qiao's expression became more and more unsightly. His face turned slightly pale.
"Cunning!"
Qin Qiao was so angry that he scolded loudly. He continuously attacked Qin Xiaoyou, but it was of no use at all. Even though he had the upper hand and was constantly chasing after Qin Xiaoyou, it was impossible for him to kill her completely within a short period of time.
Qin Xiaoyou could afford to delay, but he couldn't. The longer he delayed, the greater the danger to him. The Jet-Black Soul Scimitar was still sucking his blood. If he still couldn't kill Qin Xiaoyou, not only would he not be able to kill her, but his own cultivation would also drop by a level. It was even possible for him to return to the Sea of Qi realm. This was something that he absolutely could not tolerate and could not let happen.
On the other hand, Qin Xiaoyou's expression was calm. She continued to fight with Qin Qiao skillfully and easily. She did not take the initiative to attack, but she also did not allow Qin Qiao to leave the battle circle. When the enemy advanced, she would retreat. When the enemy retreated, she would advance. This kind of guerilla warfare tactic was very suitable at this moment.
After all, she could also see that the reason for Qin Qiao's sudden increase in cultivation was related to the Jet-Black Soul Scimitar. At the same time, she could not fight for too long. If she could continue to drag it out, in the end, it would be hard to say who would be the winner.
As time passed, Huo Changxing, who was standing on the seats with a nervous expression, heaved a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on his face. Xiaoyou's tactic was really too ingenious.
If Qin Xiaoyou could see the problem, he could naturally see it too. Although there were many special methods in the ancient martial arts world that could instantly increase one's cultivation, there were definitely limitations. The effects could not last for long. Once the effects were lost, Qin Qiao would most likely be worse off than before.
"What a good girl. She is indeed extraordinarily intelligent."
Bi Kuanhai's eyes were filled with admiration. Now, he was increasingly hoping that Qin Xiaoyou would marry into the Bi Clan. If it was possible, he would be willing to pay any price. (To be continued.)
