Chapter 148 - Three Dao Weapons

Chapter 148: Three Dao Weapons

The dozens of demon beasts were eager to pounce forward.

However, after seeing Xu Ning’s eyes, they all showed a look of fear.

They immediately stopped moving forward and even took a few steps back.

‘Why?’

Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘Is it related to Gray again?’

“Huh?”

Chen Xiaoyi noticed this.

‘These demon beasts seem to be afraid of Xu Ning!’

Chen Xiaoyi’s thoughts were going through rapidly in his head, ‘Could Xu Ning have obtained some kind of treasure in this mystic realm? And that treasure is causing these demon beasts to be terrified?’

‘That should be the case. Moreover, Xu Ning’s strength has greatly improved compared to when I last saw him. For him to be able to do this while he was severely injured back then, he must have received an inheritance from the mystic realm.’

The more Chen Xiaoyi thought about it, the more he felt that his line of thought was correct.

‘This mystic realm is related to Shi Fengxu, as well as the beast tide battlefield 300 years ago. The martial arts masters who left their inheritance in this mystic realm must have participated in the beast tide war.’

‘They were so strong that their inheritances are still stained with their aura. These demon beasts must be afraid of Xu Ning because they are afraid of the residual power of those martial arts masters!’

Chen Xiaoyi thought, ‘These demon beasts don’t dare to move because they are afraid. As long as I get rid of Xu Ning and obtain the treasure, I can use it to protect myself from these demon beasts.’

Although Chen Xiaoyi was not sure if his conjecture was 100% correct, he had no better answer for what was going on.

If he didn’t attack Xu Ning now, Xu Ning could use these demon beasts to mess with him, which would be very troublesome.

“Junior Brother Xu, this is all a misunderstanding!”

Chen Xiaoyi took a step forward, closing the distance between him and Xu Ning.

“What misunderstanding?”

Xu Ning looked at Chen Xiaoyi with a smile, but took a step back. The distance between the two widened again.

Compared to the dozens of demon beasts around him, Chen Xiaoyi was obviously more dangerous.

“The cause of misunderstanding was all because of Bao Ruyuan. If he didn’t drive a wedge between us, the two of us wouldn’t have been so distant and hostile.”

Chen Xiaoyi casually said a few nonsensical words and pressed on. “I noticed that these demon beasts are afraid of you, Junior Brother Xu. Is it because you have some kind of treasure on you?”

“So what?”

Xu Ning didn’t expect Chen Xiaoyi to blabber so much.

The reason why those demon beasts feared him was not because of some tool, but likely because of Gray.

“In this case, Junior Brother Xu, why don’t you lend it to me first. My strength is stronger than yours, and with the help of that treasure, I will definitely be able to repel all of these demon beasts. Afterwards, the two of us can join forces and explore this stone hall further. Maybe we can even obtain Shi Fengxu’s true inheritance.”

“By then, you and I can replace He Mingye and Fang Jie to become the two most outstanding disciples of the Yuelan Sect!”

Chen Xiaoyi seemed to be afraid that Xu Ning would doubt him. Hence, he grabbed the sword dao weapon from his waist and held it in his palm. “In order to show my sincerity, I am willing to give this fire-attributed dao weapon to you. It completely matches your martial arts attribute.”

“Senior Brother Chen is so generous?”

Xu Ning smiled, looking surprised.

Chen Xiaoyi laughed when he saw this. He walked towards Xu Ning with the dao weapon in his hand.

Seemingly unconcerned, Xu Ning walked over as well.

However, just when the distance between the two shortened, a big yellow fist suddenly appeared in front of Xu Ning. The big fist seal, with dark yellow lines, rushed towards Xu Ning.

“Senior Brother Chen, you broke your promise!”

Although he said that, Xu Ning seemed to be prepared.

The moment the yellow fist slammed towards Xu Ning, a Tidal Fist was also instantly condensed.

Xu Ning had already activated his bracer, so the blue Tidal Fist was almost tangible.

Bang!

The two fist imprints collided and exploded upon contact. The aftershock of the collision knocked Xu Ning and Chen Xiaoyi back half a step.

‘Sure enough, he has broken through to the void realm sixth stage!’

Killing intent appeared in Chen Xiaoyi’s eyes. ‘He is only in the attribute realm, but his punch is even more solid than mine! If it weren’t for the inherent power of my punch, I wouldn’t be his opponent!’

‘Xu Ning definitely can’t do this with his own strength. He must have used an external force! And that external force may also be a dao weapon!’

Chen Xiaoyi guessed some facts.

“Good strength!”

Chen Xiaoyi laughed. He no longer pretended to be nice. “Xu Ning, hand over the dao weapon and that treasure you have, and I can spare your life. Otherwise, you will have to die here!”

“Although your strength has greatly improved and you have been promoted to the attribute realm, you still can’t fend against a common seal realm warrior. Even if you have a dao weapon, you can’t defeat me. Moreover, even if you have a dao weapon, so what? I have a dao weapon as well!”

Chen Xiaoyi took out the flying scythe.

Although he had never used a similar weapon before, Chen Xiaoyi was a martial artist in the common seal realm, so it was relatively easy for him to master it.

Chen Xiaoyi swung the flying scythe in his hand, which emitted a yellow glow.

When a martial artist in the common seal realm used a dao weapon, the strength they could display was even more terrifying.

From the weapon, Xu Ning felt a sense of pressure.

However, Xu Ning did not cower. Instead, Xu Ning took the initiative to attack.

“Sword seal!”

Xu Ning’s hand turned into a sword finger, and several Water Cross Sword seals and Bright Fire Sword seals instantly appeared.

After several sword seals condensed, they slashed towards Chen Xiaoyi.

‘The water sword seal and the fire sword seal are both strengthened. Xu Ning has two different dao weapons!’

Chen Xiaoyi looked surprised again.

He would never expect Xu Ning to obtain an all-attributed dao weapon.

Chen Xiaoyi waved his scythe and fought against Xu Ning’s sword seal.

After absorbing Chen Xiaoyi’s earth attribute power, every swing of the flying scythe produced a ring of yellow light.

The yellow light and Xu Ning’s sword seal simultaneously dissipated, creating waves of dizziness.

Xu Ning didn’t stop at all. He activated the qi flow in his body and threw out punches one after another.

‘I can’t even take Xu Ning down!’

The more they fought, the more shocked Chen Xiaoyi was.

Although he had the upper hand because of his higher realm, he couldn’t turn this advantage into a victory.

At this revelation, Chen Xiaoyi became a little anxious.

This anxiety caused Chen Xiaoyi to reveal a flaw.

Because he didn’t coordinate well with the flying scythe, when Chen Xiaoyi poured his attribute power into the flying scythe, there was a gap.

“Good opportunity!”

Xu Ning seized the opportunity.

Xu Ning activated his full strength, and his sword seal and fist seal came crashing down.

Chen Xiaoyi could still hold on with the help of the dao weapon, but now with his dao weapon losing power, Chen Xiaoyi couldn’t defend against the ferocious attacks.

‘Sh*t!’

Chen Xiaoyi was instantly drowned by a bunch of sword seals and fist seals.

The attribute power in both seals instantly poured into Chen Xiaoyi’s body.

“Xu Ning, let me go!”

Chen Xiaoyi felt that his body was gradually losing control. “I am willing to give you all three of my dao weapons!”

Xu Ning was not moved at all.

Poof!

Xu Ning’s attribute true qi surged from his fingertips, which turned into a sharp blade, piercing Chen Xiaoyi’s throat.

“You…”

Chen Xiaoyi stared at Xu Ning with hatred in his eyes.

But Chen Xiaoyi had no chance for revenge.

Chen Xiaoyi fell to the ground, dead.

“Phew…”

The moment Chen Xiaoyi fell, Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Xiaoyi, who had a dao weapon, had the upper hand in the entire fight.

If it weren’t for the fact that he hadn’t practiced with the scythe dao weapon, the final result would have been hard to say.

Xu Ning’s face was pale. The fight just now took a lot of his stamina.

Xu Ning sat on the ground. His stamina, qi, and attribute powers had been completely exhausted.

‘Fortunately, these demon beasts are afraid of me, otherwise just a middle level void realm demon beasts would have been a huge threat to me.’

When Xu Ning and Chen Xiaoyi were fighting just now, the demon beasts surrounding them looked at them like spectators.

Chen Xiaoyi was dead, but these demon beasts were still staring at him.

Xu Ning didn’t know what to do next.

Time slowly passed by, and Xu Ning’s stamina slowly recovered.

Since these demon beasts weren’t hurting him, he didn’t need to care about them for the time being.

Xu Ning walked next to Chen Xiaoyi and groped around.

“Three dao weapons…”

Besides the three dao weapons on Chen Xiaoyi, there was nothing else of value.

“If I’m not wrong, these three dao weapons should have been obtained by Chen Xiaoyi in this hall.”

Xu Ning guessed, “He was so unfamiliar with using this dao weapon just now; he obviously hadn’t practiced it…”

Xu Ning put the three dao weapons into his rib storage space.

Although one of them was a fire-attributed dao weapon, because of the metal bracer, he had no use for it.

One all-attributed dao weapon was enough.

Afterwards, Xu Ning disposed of Chen Xiaoyi’s corpse.

All of Xu Ning’s enemies had been eliminated.

“These demon beasts…”

Xu Ning suddenly noticed that the demon beasts that had been standing quietly in place suddenly began to tremble.

Whoosh!

The demon beasts, whether they were high level void realm demon beasts or weaker, all postrated on the ground.

“What’s going on?”

Xu Ning was also on guard.

The space near him suddenly distorted.

A giant tiger demon beast with wings appeared in the hall.

And a silver kitten stood on its head.

“It’s the giant tiger demon beast!”

Xu Ning recognized it instantly.

“The thing on its head… is Gray?”

Xu Ning was surprised.

When did Gray enter this mystic realm?
