Chapter 164: Secret Opponent
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Although Sha Ning came from the Departing Moon Sect, the technique he cultivated was not from this sect. He had taken it from the cultivator he had killed along with the Blood Spider Sword.
However, this cultivation technique was incomplete. It was obvious that the previous owner had obtained this cultivation technique from somewhere else.
Although the Blood Refinement Technique was powerful, it was also much more dangerous than ordinary arts. If one was not careful, they would be counterattacked by the Blood Refinement Technique.
Although Sha Ning was a strong and overbearing person, he was extremely cautious in his cultivation.
That person’s words struck Sha Ning’s heart.
“How?” Sha Ning suddenly put away the spider. “How?”
“Come back to me after the competition,” the man said with a look of approval.
Sha Ning was shocked. Regardless of whether the other party was lying to him or not, from the man’s movement technique, the other party’s strength was definitely above his.
Compared to the earth-shattering commotion of the others, the fight between Sha Ning and the sallow-faced man happened in a flash, and no one noticed it.
Meng Qing was like a cheetah, carefully moving through the forest.
He was best at hiding and assassination. He had once escaped from the hands of a nascent soul cultivator, but this time, he was even more cautious.
The area of fifteen mountains was very large, but a hundred golden core cultivators fighting here seemed insignificant. On the contrary, this battlefield was too small.
The smaller the battlefield, the more intense and chaotic the battle would be.
What made him most afraid was that these 99 people were all his enemies.
Unlike normal cultivators, his goal was very clear.
However, every time he thought of this, he had an inexplicable feeling. Was a mere foundation establishment cultivator worth spending so many spiritual crystals to kill?
He felt disdain in his heart. How could a foundation establishment cultivator pass the last stage?
However, since he had already taken the spiritual crystals, he had to do his best. Without credibility, he would not be able to do business in the future.
Due to the limitations ot his cultivation base, he couldn’t do much. He was also living on a tight budget. He came to the sword-testing conference because he wanted a share of the rewards. Who knew that this time, his luck was really too good?
The reward was quite generous, and most importantly, the other party was asking for the only foundation establishment cultivator in this sword-testing conference.
If the target was someone else, he would be a little uncertain, but if it was Li Ming, he agreed without thinking.
He had personally witnessed the battle between Li Ming and An Yang. To be honest, he admired Li Ming’s ability to defeat someone stronger than him.
He had always suspected that An Yang was the one who had placed the order. An Yang must have been indignant about being eliminated, so he had secretly caused trouble.
However, what did this have to do with him? He had never been someone who would go against Spiritual Crystals!
Nowadays, it was not easy to survive. Other than his invisibility skill, his combat strength was average, so he could not take on many missions.
He was very confident in this mission. He believed that Li Ming would be able to defeat An Yang. On one hand, it was because An Yang had underestimated him. On the other hand, Li Ming was well prepared. If it were him, he definitely wouldn’t let Li Ming have so much leeway.
From the very beginning, he had no intention of making a move openly.
Although Li Ming’s strength was far inferior to his, he still chose to do an ambush because his goal was only the Spiritual Crystals.
However, in order to do this, he had to find Li Ming first. This was what gave him the biggest headache.
However, this was also reasonable. If there were no difficulties, no one would be willing to pay such a high price to hire him.
He carefully controlled his body, moving slowly in the forest like a hazy shadow. The color of his entire body blended into the surrounding environment. He concealed his aura, making it difficult for others to discover him. Because of this, no one noticed him along the way.
He was extra cautious today. There were golden core cultivators everywhere, and there were some powerful cultivators among them. If they saw him, he had no chance of winning.
Right, there was a canyon ahead.
Meng Qing planned to go over and take a look. After all, Li Ming’s cultivation was much weaker than others. He did not dare to run around recklessly.
After taking this job, he had thought that Li Ming would most likely hide in a corner and rely on formations to deal with his opponent. Therefore, he had been observing every corner of the road carefully.
The entrance of the valley ahead was very narrow. Meng Qing did not dare to let his guard down and carefully walked through the entrance of the valley. In the valley, Luo Ming’s eyes were tightly shut. The flying sword beside him floated quietly.
He was like a living volcano. On the surface, he looked calm, but in fact, the sword intent in his body was surging crazily.
The first match of “Self Separation” was today!
An indescribable excitement grew in his heart. This excitement was like a silent flame burning in every part of his body.
However, he was like an old monk. He did not move and suppressed the excitement in his heart!
The airflow around him surged like a small tornado, whistling in the small valley.
However, the strange thing was that the entrance of the valley did not move at all despite the strong winds in the valley.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes!
There was someone there!
Although it was limited by his cultivation and experience, there were many mysteries in it. Even Xu Shan was full of praise for it.
Luo Ming, who was sitting cross-legged, willed the surrounding rocks and trees to become illusory and gradually disappear. In the end, they turned into nothingness.
Even the tiniest thing was so clear in his perception.
It was as if a drop of ink had suddenly appeared on a snow-white piece of paper. Even though it was very small, it could be seen clearly.
Meng Qing’s entire body had blended into the environment, and the naked eye couldn’t discover him. However, in Luo Ming’s eyes, there was another person!
The excitement that had been suppressed for a long time finally had a place to vent.
However, his expression was solemn. He raised his right hand, put his thumb and pinky together, and pointed the other three fingers at the sky.
The flying sword that was floating quietly in the air suddenly opened its blood-red eyes like a beast that had just woken up from a deep sleep, revealing its ghastly white teeth.
A loud and clear cry soared into the sky.
On the sword, red and green light mixed, like a pair of red and green spirit beasts with intertwined necks, extremely happy!
“Separate!”
That sigh was ethereal as if it was right beside his ear.
The red and green light began to turn white, and the joy on the sword also began to dim. A lonely feeling was emitted from the sword, like the autumn wind..
