The pink magical light gradually dissipated from Chen Shuangbai's body. Feeling the operation of the " Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method " within her body, the Law Power that Chen Shuangbai had just consumed gradually began to replenish.
Chen Shuangbai made a rough estimate.
"If I divide my Law Power equally into ten parts, the fight with Senior Brother Lu and that Senior Brother Jiao just now consumed three parts, so with one Flower Bloom Incantation... hmm, it's restored to eight parts."
Furthermore, given the profound nature of the " Moon-Worshipping Clear Illumination Method," which far surpasses the main cultivation Cultivation Method practiced by his fellow disciples, it won't be long before Chen Shuangbai is able to return to his perfect state.
However, there's nothing to regret about this.
"It's a pity the Sweet Dew Incantation... is no longer of any use."
The Sweet Dew Incantation is primarily used to heal injuries.
However, once inside this treasure map, almost every fellow disciple he encountered was no match for Chen Shuangbai.
Having finally encountered Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Jiao Ming, Chen Shuangbai originally thought she could finally get some exercise and test the results of her cultivation over the past few years.
But I still didn't expect...
Thinking of this, Chen Shuangbai couldn't help but sigh softly.
"This swordsmanship... is truly domineering."
For the next period of time, Chen Shuangbai gained almost nothing.
Because most of the ordinary disciples have already been eliminated, and those who remain are mostly stronger and more resolute fellow disciples, none of whom are easy to get along with, so they generally keep their distance.
And it was at this time.
A grand voice once again resounded in the ears of the disciples within the treasure map.
" Martial Edge Trial, Phase Three, Begins."
The Merit Jade Plaque has changed again.
Chen Shuangbai probed the area with his Divine Sense and discovered that, in addition to being able to view the merit rankings and fellow disciples holding Merit Jade Plaque, this third stage had added a function to guide everyone to find the opponents they wanted to challenge.
But that's not all.
A beam of azure light descended from the sky, enveloping Chen Shuangbai. However, this was not for teleportation, but rather... to mark the presence of such a person in this place. Moreover, the beam of light was clearly inscribed with the character "Sixth" in seal script!
Good heavens!
Chen Shuangbai exclaimed, "Wow!"
"This is... as if they're afraid we won't fight, so they're 'marking' us all up?!"
Chen Shuangbai complained while covering her forehead, speechless for a moment.
This was clearly designed to leave the remaining people with no way to hide or avoid battle.
This is no longer encouraging conflict; it's blatantly forcing the remaining disciples to fight.
The many disciples watching from the outside also cheered and exclaimed, saying it was incredibly exciting.
Just as Chen Shuangbai was thinking of causing trouble for Fifth, his spiritual sense suddenly stirred, and he sensed a very strong aura rushing towards him from the southeast, making no attempt to conceal it, like a torrent of scorching subterranean fire.
"Looks like I don't need to go looking for anyone; someone's already itching to make an example of me, the sixth one!"
He stood there quietly, facing south, his right hand loosely clenched, the Cold Spring Sword not drawn, but hanging at his waist, its blade humming slightly, emitting an almost imperceptible, eerie blue light.
A distance of a few miles is covered in the blink of an eye for a cultivator in the Late Qi Refining Stage.
Buzz buzz buzz!
But before the man arrived, the attack had already begun.
Chen Shuangbai looked up at the sky and saw three deep blue spiral spirit arrows coming from high above, heading straight for him with extremely fast speed and great destructive power.
"Arrows? That's rare."
The Cold Spring Sword flew out, enveloped in water vapor, like a dark blue ice dragon, and met the attack with a move called Green Shoots Break Through Snow.
The two collided, producing a deafening roar.
But Chen Shuangbai didn't care. Feeling the chilling murderous intent coming from his neck, his mind raced, and the Green Parasol Tree Sword that he had been hiding flew out. With a loud clang, he deflected the three bright green needles that were stabbing towards his back.
A tall figure landed on a cliff not far away, looking down at Chen Shuangbai. The newcomer was tall and elegant, dressed in a deep blue robe. It was Lin Jingtao.
A slender figure stood atop the canopy of an ancient tree in the forest, her right hand holding three gleaming green flying needles as she gazed at Chen Shuangbai from afar.
Ji Ruohua, then who was it?
After getting a clear look at the two of them, Chen Shuangbai asked with some confusion, "Are you two... trying to join forces to drive me out?"
Lin Jingtao held a deep blue magic bow in his hand, its entire body radiating a dark blue magical light, and engraved with array patterns, clearly a high-quality Law Artifact.
Judging from the three spirit arrows that were just shot, this magic bow is at least a high-grade Law Artifact.
Considering that this person comes from the prestigious Lin Immortal Clan under the Jade Spring Sect, there is a high probability that it is a top-grade magic Law Artifact.
The reason it's not called Spirit Artifact is because... Spirit Artifact are not allowed during this Martial Edge Trial.
Lin Jingtao spoke first, " Junior Brother Chen, your Sword Qi is always something to be wary of. There's nothing we can do, so Junior Sister Ji and I discussed it and decided to eliminate you first."
Ji Ruohua remained silent, but the azure magical Law Power emanating from her body clearly indicated her agreement.
The Cold Spring Sword descended from the sky, joining the Green Parasol Tree Sword. The two Law Sword, one above the other, surrounded Chen Shuangbai, who stood atop the Water Serpent, like loyal soldiers guarding their king.
"Good."
Since deciding to participate in this Martial Edge Trial, Chen Shuangbai no longer intended to hide his talents but rather to demonstrate his potential in order to gain more attention and resources from the sect.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ruohua felt a sudden pang of fear. She raised her hand and urged him on, and a colorful ribbon of cloud-like energy appeared on her body, carrying her to narrowly avoid the incoming dark blue Sword Qi.
"Too fast!"
Although she was mentally prepared and knew that the speed of Sword Qi was only slightly slower than that of Thunder Method among all techniques, she was still greatly alarmed.
Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, Chen Shuangbai's voice reached her ears.
What are you celebrating?
"Not good!"
Ji Ruohua knew something was wrong. The Green Parasol Tree Sword, like a nimble and leaping green snake, slashed diagonally upwards from the forest below, shattering the protective ribbon of the magical Law Artifact on her body and cutting it down. It also knocked down more than a dozen ancient trees in the forest, leaving the ground in a mess.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The familiar buzzing sound rang in her ears again. Chen Shuangbai turned to look at the cliff. Lin Jingtao had drawn his bow to its fullest extent. The three agile water arrows were entirely formed from his Law Power. After releasing his hand, they turned into three blue rays and blasted towards her in an instant.
Chen Shuangbai chuckled softly, and the speed of his Flowing Cloud Flying Pouch increased once again, turning into a white streak. The distance of several hundred feet was as if it were nothing, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in front of Lin Jingtao.
Lin Jingtao's expression changed drastically. He drew his bow again and nocked an arrow, but Chen Shuangbai's fingertips flashed with white arcs of electricity, and a dark blue arc of electricity shot out.
Boom!
A loud bang!
The once verdant cliffs were covered in frost, with ice crystals and leaping white arcs of electricity everywhere. It was as if a layer of soil had been shaved off out of thin air, turning it into a jade cliff forged from ice.
