Even without the Law Sword, Chen Shuangbai can still unleash Sword Qi.
Faced with Jin Wuyu's golden light, Chen Shuangbai raised her hand and a streak of indigo Sword Qi flew out, knocking down the golden lights one by one with a few crisp clangs.
The momentum didn't diminish, and it slashed down towards Jin Wuyu's neck in mid-air.
Jin Wuyu stood still, neither dodging nor avoiding, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
The Spirit-Seeking Sect has been paying close attention to the Jade Spring Sect in recent years, especially to its outstanding younger disciples.
Jin Wuyu had already seen and understood many of Chen Shuangbai's methods and information.
Behind him, among the six attendants who were faintly aroused by life, one of them suddenly flew up, landed in mid-air, and transformed into a golden bell.
Nourished by Jin Wuyu's Law Power, the golden bell grew larger in the blink of an eye, and a deep, resonant bell sound rang out, rippling out layers of golden waves.
Chen Shuangbai's Sword Qi fell into the golden ripples, as if sinking into a swamp, and the power contained within slowly began to dissipate.
Jin Wuyu laughed mockingly.
"Chen Daoyou is skilled in swordsmanship; how can I not be wary?"
Chen Shuangbai showed no surprise whatsoever, merely giving a cold smile and saying, "Open!"
A beam of moon-white light descended from its body, transforming into a pure white banner.
The precious banner landed behind Chen Shuangbai. On the banner, a great river surged, the bright moon shone on the river, and green trees and flowers on both banks slowly emitted light. The cool and clear light fell and enveloped the entire rooftop.
The cool, pale moonlight fell down, seemingly gentle, yet carrying an indescribable chill.
The ripples emanating from the golden bell-like Law Artifact above Jin Wuyu's head gradually subsided, and within a very short time, a layer of dark blue frost gradually covered its surface before it fell down with a clang.
Jin Wuyu was horrified, looking at the precious banner hanging behind Chen Shuangbai, " Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact?"
Cui Yu also looked over and thought to himself, "As expected of the Jade Spring Sect, they are truly wealthy and powerful."
Regardless of what the two thought, Chen Shuangbai made a thought, and the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ] behind him swayed again.
An aura of power, capable of freezing rivers and chilling to the bone, instantly spread out from him!
The Foundation Establishment cultivators present felt as if their bodies were sinking into a swamp, gradually becoming sluggish. Most importantly, not only their bodies, but also the Law Power flowing within them became sluggish, as if under a sleeping spell.
The appearance of the [ Clear Waves Reflecting the Moon Banner ], Mid-Grade Spirit Artifact, was indeed not mentioned in Jin Wuyu Wuyu's information about Chen Shuangbai.
However, this direct descendant of the Spirit-Seeking Sect did not panic. Instead, he raised his hand and flicked it, and one of the remaining five Law Artifact and Spirit Artifact behind him, a large, dark gold mace, landed in his hand.
As soon as the black gold mace landed in his hand, an extremely powerful Sha Qi rose from the noble-looking golden-robed Daoist, like a ferocious beast unleashed from its cage. A sense of wildness gradually emerged, and a faint layer of earth crystal radiance gradually appeared around his body.
Upon seeing this, Huiming couldn't help but sigh softly and was about to step forward to help Jin Wuyu.
But just as he was about to lift his foot, he suddenly felt a chill run through him.
His gaze shifted and landed on Cui Yu.
The white-robed swordsman, his sword still hanging at his waist, had his clear black and white eyes fixed on the Zen master of the Great Buddha Temple, and he said in a low voice:
"Give it a try?"
Huiming was aware of how troublesome and domineering sword cultivators were.
Looking at Cui Yu's expression, he knew he couldn't help Jin Wuyu.
"Fellow Daoist Jin, may you have good fortune."
Jin Wuyu, wielding his massive black-gold mace, struck directly at Chen Shuangbai's head from dozens of feet away. A deafening boom resounded, and a beam of black-gold light burst forth, about to crush down from afar.
Chen Shuangbai sighed softly, and a small patch of dazzling starlight suddenly lit up on the banner hanging behind her.
Three dazzling, icy stars streaked out and collided with the dark gold light. The dark gold light then shattered into countless glittering ice shards with three soft popping sounds, turning into a sky full of dark blue ice crystals.
But amidst the glittering ice shards that filled the attic, Jin Wuyu's figure suddenly vanished.
Cui Yu, who had been paying close attention to Chen Shuangbai, sensed something was wrong.
The Spirit-Seeking Sect possesses a unique Secret Method called the [ Withdrawal and Breath-Concealing Technique ], which is extremely effective at hiding one's aura, making one appear as if they have disappeared from sight. When the enemy is in a panic, a ruthless and fatal strike is launched.
Unseen by the crowd, Jin Wuyu suddenly appeared to Chen Shuangbai's right rear, holding the black gold mace in his right hand and three gold needles tucked into his left sleeve.
This item is called the [ Meridian-Sealing Law-Severing Needles ]. It is a Low-Grade Spirit Artifact, crafted by the alchemists of the Spirit-Seeking Sect from the Yin Sha Metal Qi deep within the earth's veins. It is specifically designed to break through protective spiritual light. Once it is injected into a cultivator's body, it will reverse the flow of energy through the meridians and erode their Law Power. At best, it will cause their Law Power to become disordered and temporarily lose their combat ability; at worst, it will damage their meridians and shake their foundation!
The sinister malice in Jin Wuyu's eyes was blatantly obvious.
However, just as the golden needle was about to slip from his left fingertip, Chen Shuangbai seemed to have anticipated this. He suddenly turned his body slightly, glancing sideways at the Jin Household family direct descendant of the Spirit-Seeking Sect behind him, a cold smile curving his lips.
I've been waiting for you for a long time.
The soft voice, like a thunderclap, exploded in Jin Wuyu's ears!
However, he was no ordinary cultivator. Despite a moment of shock, he had already infused the [ Meridian-Sealing Law-Severing Needles ] in his hand with Law Power and shot it out.
But his three sharp golden needles all passed straight through Chen Shuangbai's body, as if they had hit nothing!
All that remained was a patch of shattered ice crystals frozen in the cold air.
Chen Shuangbai then disappeared.
Jin Wuyu's pupils suddenly contracted, alarm bells rang in his mind, and he saw another golden rope-like Spirit Artifact fly out from his sleeve, circling around him and emitting layer upon layer of golden light.
But even faster than his golden rope was Chen Shuangbai's method.
"Too slow!"
He turned around in shock, only to find Chen Shuangbai standing right next to him, almost face to face!
Then, this direct descendant of the Jade Spring Sect thrust his hand straight into Jin Wuyu's defenses, like a drop of water merging into the martial world, piercing through his protective aura, and grabbing his neck. A tremendous force came through and lifted him up.
Jin Wuyu's Law Power surged, and the golden rope on his body seemed to be stimulated, twisting wildly, along with the other magical Law Artifact, all striking towards Chen Shuangbai.
Whether it was the attack from the Law Artifact itself or the spiritual light emitted by the Law Artifact, when it landed on Chen Shuangbai, it was as if she had fallen into a vortex, and she was immediately deflected and struck towards an empty space not far away.
A venomous glint flashed in Jin Wuyu's eyes as he prepared to unleash his killing move, but Chen Shuangbai sneered, a dark light gradually appearing between her brows. Her voice was eerie, like that of a vengeful ghost, as she said:
"Move again, and I'll blow your head off!"
Jin Wuyu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He looked at the black light between Chen Shuangbai with a hint of fear in his eyes, as if his entire soul had been sucked in. A chill ran down his spine.
He... froze.
