81. Drawing the Saber to Slay the Immortal Master!
81. Drawing the Saber to Slay the Immortal Master!
"Nine Shadow Saber Technique!"
Lin Fei unleashed the Thirteen Shadows with a single saber strike. With a fierce slash, it met the invisible wall of air.
It did not work at all.
Lin Fei immediately understood that the large formation had been set up, and it would be difficult to break through it with the power of an ordinary martial artist.
"Senior Brother Lin, what's going on?"
"Chief, what should we do?"
"How did we get trapped here?"
For a moment, many people were panic-stricken and didn't know what to do.
"Everyone, gather around me and don't act recklessly. This is a formation set up by a Qi cultivator." Lin Fei shouted loudly.
"Qi cultivator?"
"An immortal master, Qi cultivator is the immortal master."
"Could it be that there's an immortal master among these pirates?"
"It's said that immortal masters have mysterious and unpredictable means, and ordinary martial artists are no match for them."
"Only innate experts can contend with immortal masters."
"How did we come across an immortal master?"
Lin Fei's words stirred the crowd once again.
Immortal Master! This name was lofty and unreachable to ordinary people. The title "Immortal Master" often represents mystery, power, and invincibility. How could ordinary martial artists contend with an immortal master?
At this moment, a group of pirates emerged from the manor.
A mysterious man in a black robe, along with the Sea Yama King and others, appeared not far from Lin Fei and the others. The Sea Yama King saw Lin Fei and the others trapped and a hint of excitement appeared on his face.
"Master, your Blood Refining Formation is indeed powerful, trapping these Nine Profound Sect members in an instant."
The mysterious man in the black robe removed his cloak, revealing a slightly aged face. There were no fluctuations of inner power on his body.
However, Lin Fei could see that there were fluctuations of spiritual power on the mysterious man in the black robe.
It was similar to Lin Miao's spiritual power fluctuations. Only, it was much more profound than Lin Miao's spiritual power and far beyond what Lin Miao could compare to.
The mysterious man in the black robe was indeed a Qi cultivator!
"Master, there are some powerful individuals among these Nine Profound Sect martial artists. Will your Blood Refining Formation be broken by them, allowing them to escape?" The Sea Yama King asked with some concern.
"Break the Blood Refining Formation?"
The mysterious man in the black robe sneered, "How can mere mortals understand the wonders of formations? You martial artists, no matter how strong, are still flesh and blood, mere mortals."
Once the Blood Refining Formation is set up, only innate martial artists may have a chance to break it. As for acquired martial artists? They can only become the nourishment for the Blood Refining Formation, enhancing its power!
After we deal with these Nine Profound Sect members, we'll attack Haizhou City and refine the entire city with blood. Hehe, by then, I'll definitely be able to refine the Yin Blood Pill!"
The mysterious man in the black robe had a hint of fervor in his eyes. Everything he did was for the Yin Blood Pill!
The moment the mysterious man in the black robe appeared, Lin Fei's body was tense.
Dangerous!
Qi cultivators were very dangerous!
Lin Fei had dealt with Qi cultivators before. Even Lin Miao was a Qi cultivator. Although he hadn't even reached the Qi Condensation first level, his various methods were extraordinary and magical. A slight carelessness could lead to danger.
Therefore, Lin Fei knew that when facing a Qi cultivator, there must be no hesitation.
Spare no expense. Strike to kill with one blow! Only in this way could there be a glimmer of hope for survival!
The moment the black-robed Qi cultivator appeared, Lin Fei was already preparing. He was looking for an opportunity.
Listening to the black-robed Qi cultivator speaking confidently seemed to be the most relaxed moment.
At this moment, Lin Fei made his move!
"Whoosh."
The transcendent Leaping Technique allowed Lin Fei to leap out, almost like a faint shadow.
As Lin Fei executed the Leaping Technique, his right hand was already gripping the Hidden Saber at his waist.
"Shoo."
Lin Fei shot out like an arrow released from its string.
The entire manor seemed to quiet down all at once.
In everyone's sight, there was only a faint glimpse of light.
A white light!
Only the mysterious man in the black robe, with eyes filled with spiritual power, could see.
There was a saber in Lin Fei's hand!
Saber-drawing Technique!
Nurturing the saber for two months was comparable to nurturing it for more than three months before.
Moreover, Lin Fei was now at acquired fifth level, not the third. This saber strike was earth-shattering! Even the acquired ninth or tenth level martial artist would likely be unable to withstand this slash.
This saber strike was comparable to the pinnacle of the acquired realm!
"Slash!"
As Lin Fei's word fell, it was like a startling thunderclap, his saber had already reached the mysterious man in the black robe.
With such a swift speed, no one could intercept it.
"How could this be? How could a mere mortal, a fleshly body, possess such a terrifying strike?"
The mysterious man widened his eyes. He had just been talking confidently, treating acquired martial artists as if they were nothing. But now, his entire body was ice-cold. He could feel the threat of death.
At this moment, he might have recalled that martial artists were fleshly bodies and mere mortals. And he, as a Qi cultivator, was no different from them.
The mysterious man's robe drew out a talisman from his hand.
"Snap."
The talisman instantly released a green light, enveloping the mysterious man in the black robe.
Lin Fei's saber finally fell.
"Pfff."
The green light only managed to slightly slow down Lin Fei's saber. Then, just like cutting through tofu. It easily sliced through the green light.
The green light vanished in an instant. And the mysterious man in the black robe could only watch helplessly as Lin Fei's sharp saber fell, cleaving him from head to toe.
Splitting him directly in half with one strike!
"Thud."
The two halves of the mysterious man in the black robe fell to the ground. Lin Fei stood in front of his body.
The pirates around him, including Sea Yama King dared not move a muscle as if they couldn't believe the scene before their eyes.
How could the confident and eloquent Immortal Master be dead? Moreover, his death was extremely tragic. Cut in half by Lin Fei's single saber strike!
"How could the Master, an Immortal Master, be dead?" Sea Yama King's face turned pale, and his body trembled.
"Whoosh."
Lin Fei had no intention of sparing Sea Yama King. He slashed with his saber. Thirteen saber shadows emerged.
Sea Yama King, merely an acquired sixth level martial artist, was no match for Lin Fei's saber. As a result, with one strike, his head rolled to the ground.
"Spare us."
"Hero, please have mercy."
"We were all coerced by Sea Yama King, we surrender."
"Please, don't kill me..."
Seeing this scene, the sea bandits broke down. The Immortal Master and Sea Yama King were both dead. How could they dare to resist?
They all dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground. The inner disciples of the Nine Profound Sect also came to Lin Fei's side.
They looked at the Immortal Master who had been split in half on the ground. And then they looked at Lin Fei. Even at this moment, they seemed unable to believe it.
"...Senior Brother Lin, is this Immortal Master really dead?"
Even the acquired sixth level inner disciple of the Nine Profound Sect seemed to doubt it.
Immortal Masters were held in high regard in the hearts of martial artists. Who would dare to fight against an Immortal Master? That would be considered insane.
Yet now, they had witnessed Lin Fei unleashing an earth-shattering slash and even killing an Immortal Master with a single strike!
"What the Immortal Master? Using blood refinement techniques killed countless people. He was nothing but a devil. Moreover, Qi cultivators are also made of flesh and blood. Once killed, how could they come back to life?"
Lin Fei shook his head.
It seemed that these people had not seen Qi cultivators before. Over time, they had even deified them.
Lin Fei had not only seen Qi Condensation cultivators but had even killed one before. Furthermore, a Qi cultivator had become his subordinate. Controlled by him, serving as an alchemy tool.
Qi cultivators were human too! His saber could kill not only martial artists but also Immortal Masters!
