There's Something Wrong With This Account-Chapter 427 - : 427, [Dog’s Highlight Moment]

Chapter 427: 427, [Dog’s Highlight Moment]

Lu Xun looked straight at the approaching Yi Xuan, not hesitating at all, he immediately chose to [Upgrade]!

In an instant, a large amount of spiritual energy surged towards him, wildly pouring into his body, allowing him to recover to his best state in the blink of an eye!

Yi Xuan, looking at the on-the-spot breakthrough of Lu Xun, was actually a bit puzzled.

Logically speaking, this should be normal—breaking through in the midst of a fight.

Being a foreigner of the sixth order, Yi Xuan himself had experienced such situations several times.

But, the fight hasn’t even started yet!

You witnessed me drawing my sword and charging, and then you have an epiphany?

Even among the Foreign Race, Yi Xuan is deemed an extraordinary genius, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been adopted by the [Supreme Lord].

But he had never seen such a breakthrough before where they completely ignored the principles!

“Hmph! But so what?” he maintained full confidence in himself: “You are still only at the fourth realm of cultivation!”

Yi Xuan raised his broken blade, his momentum skyrocketing.

When the sword qi clashed with the knife light, Yi Xuan noticeably felt something different.

He had sparred with Lu Xun before, and the current amount of sword qi was much more than before!

“How is this possible, he only broke through a minor realm, how could his improvement be so dramatic?” Yi Xuan found it somewhat incredible.

What’s even stranger was that the total amount of spiritual power in the opponent’s body had taken a leap!

He clearly felt that Lu Xun’s finger-tip sword qi was much more powerful than before!

“This is impossible!!” Yi Xuan felt that this broke his understanding of cultivation.

The mysterious Five Elements Spiritual Power within Lu Xun’s body was incredibly strong, much more substantial than other cultivators in the same realm.

Although, in nature, size does not equate to power, what if endurance was added to the equation?

Although Lu Xun was only at level 43, he intended to outlast Yi Xuan and fight a war of attrition!

A level 40 something intended to exhaust a level 61!

This, in the eyes of the others, was purely a fantasy.

But that was Lu Xun’s plan.

If he did not exhaust his opponent and directly forced a fight, he was definitely no match for Yi Xuan.

The difference in level was clear, even if the opponent was injured and his weapon was half-wasted, it was impossible to close this gap.

However, he wasn’t afraid of a war of attrition.

Inside his sword sheath, he still had over 30000 sword qi!

In his character panel, there were initially a full 20 million experience points, having only just leveled up once, he could continue to upgrade!

“Once out of mana, I will level up, let’s see who’s exhausted first!” This was Lu Xun’s plan.

While exhausting his opponent, due to the difference in strength, he would sustain minor injuries to some extent.

But it did not matter.

“I have the green pearls, I can heal myself!” Lu Xun was not panicked at all.

Normally, leveling up could restore a certain amount of health, but Lu Xun had no such plan.

The experience points must be kept until mana is depleted, and using the green pearls can make up for any health loss!

This process was undoubtedly painful, as he would constantly be injured and constantly recovering…

“But I am not afraid of pain!” That was Lu Xun’s bottom line.

Don’t forget, although he is not a masochist and does not have the unlawful realm of [Enjoying Pain], he is already accustomed to pain.

Whether it’s the [Qi Consumption Technique] or the [Mysterious Five Elements Cultivation Method], practicing them is incredibly painful, Lu Xun is already used to it.

Later on in the fight, Yi Xuan was so angry his eyes turned bloodshot!

Damn it!

Just when Lu Xun finally showed signs of fatigue, he…actually broke through again!

Being a foreigner of the sixth order, Yi Xuan’s power will definitely be more substantial than Lu Xun’s, even if he practices the Five Elements Cultivation Method, he can’t possibly compete with Yi Xuan.

But the damn thing is, our power decreases by a bit every time we use it.

While he would gain a boost every time his spiritual power is exhausted!

Yi Xuan glanced at the stupid players nearby and bitterly said: “I have no choice but to try this move!”

He bit his finger, his dark purple blood drew several runes in the air, and the next moment, purple air currents began to sweep towards the crowd of players in the battle!

This is his secret technique—[Ghost Cry].

He can temporarily absorb ghost qi to replenish himself.

This secret technique proves very useful in group fights, as you can kill and refill your mana at the same time, maintaining your sustenance in the fight.

The only side effect is that he will be weak for a long period of time, and he will have to endure the pain caused by the backlash of the ghost qi.

Because he can only temporarily utilize the ghost qi, he can’t completely convert and absorb it.

Yi Xuan’s face showed a cruel smile, he felt that his move was truly instant.

Soon, the dark purple air currents that were absorbing ghost qi flew back.

After the stream of air entered his body, Yi Xuan noticeably paused.

“Why is it so little?” Yi Xuan was confused.

Even if all the stupid players are killed and their resurrection counts are exhausted, they would just be forcibly logged out.

In the eyes of the outsiders, it would look like: “Damn it, I finally killed him!”

But in fact, the stupid players would be able to log back in after a short while.

And foreigners do not produce ghost qi when they die, they are rejected by the Heavenly Dust and will be completely destroyed.

Therefore, there is very little ghost qi in the battlefield.

Some of them came from the less than a hundred cultivators that rushed to Blooming City, while others were sword cultivators who had just passed by and joined the fight.

This made Yi Xuan want to curse!

The [Ghost Cry] secret technique also consumes mana, but the mana absorbed back was less than the mana spent, isn’t this a loss!

Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Xun decided to pull back on the battlefield.

From his memory, Yi Xuan had a lot of random tricks, all were flamboyant moves.

Although he failed to absorb the ghost qi this time, who knew what tricks he could come up with later.

It would be better to find an open area for a straightforward one-on-one fight.

Without others around, it would be easier for Lu Xun to employ some underhanded tactics without worrying about his appearance.

He sat on the paper crane, fighting while retreating.

Yi Xuan’s task was to capture Lu Xun, so he couldn’t stop chasing.

Soon, the two reached a small grove.

Lu Xun could only retreat to here.

If he retreated any further, it would be Blooming City.

By that time, if the repercussions spread outwards, hundreds or even thousands of people might die because of carelessness!

As Lu Xun willed his thoughts, Pink Ink streamed around him.

The ink-coloured airflow protected him, preventing him from incurring grave injuries in each clash.

The green current constantly healed his wounds, his wounds split open, then scabbed over, and then split open again.

His black robe was covered in blood.

This was the messiest battle Lu Xun had fought so far.

At the same time, Yi Xuan was the strongest opponent he had ever faced alone.

His energy meter soon ran out again, and Lu Xun once more chose to Upgrade.

After his character level reached 45, Lu Xun did not have enough experience points to continue levelling up.

Fortunately, Yi Xuan was also not in a good state.

Under the bombardment of a multitude of sword energies, Yi Xuan’s health bar was also dwindling.

“I refuse to believe I can’t kill you!” Lu Xun’s heart surged with rare tenacity.

“Bang—”

Sword Qi clashed with the purple Knife Gang, forcing both of them to retreat.

Yi Xuan’s condition was not good. Although his health bar was decent, his energy bar was rapidly depleting.

Lu Xun’s wear-out strategy was yielding results.

“Let’s see how many more times you can break through!” Yi Xuan hissed fiercely.

Even though he was short on experience points, Lu Xun still asserted calmly, “Breaking through for me is as common as having meals, you can stay tuned.”

Yi Xuan clenched his hand around the Purple Crystal Blade, losing all patience.

If this went on, he wasn’t confident of winning.

He aimed to gravely wound Lu Xun with a single hit to prevent him from recovering again!

At this moment, Yi Xuan glanced at the Purple Crystal Blade in his hand.

“I’m sorry, old friend,” He murmured softly.

The next moment, the blade turned into purple fragments. A dragon’s roar echoed, revealing a purple dragon’s phantom image.

The phantom charged towards Lu Xun. The overwhelming Sword Qi could not stop it, not could Lu Xun’s Mist Sword.

The phantom, similar to a flood dragon, blasted onto the ink-colored flow of air, sending Lu Xun flying backward as he was wracked with piercing pain.

He raised his left hand, embedding the sword sheath in the muddy ground, and continuously retreating, leaving a long ditch behind.

After retreating almost a hundred meters, he managed to steady himself.

Blood oozed from the corners of Lu Xun’s mouth, but he did not back down.

After all, this was someone who had once jumped off from Lead Peak.

He noticed that Yi Xuan’s condition was extremely poor.

A faint grin appeared on Lu Xun’s face.

Yi Xuan found his grin extremely annoying.

Obviously, he was critically injured, incapable of fighting, covered in blood and appearing exceedingly ragged, yet he seemed as carefree as ever.

His attractive appearance made Yi Xuan incredibly envious!

Even though Yi Xuan was winning, Lu Xun’s mocking grin annoyed him.

“Not retreating anymore?” Yi Xuan asked.

“Oh, poor Heavenly Dust Cultivator, still sticking to the old ways, trying to protect your tens of thousands of ants inside the city?” As he spoke, he flung out a purple airflow that blasted towards Lu Xun’s ink mass.

“Wait until I catch you, I’ll make you watch as I destroy your city.”

“Let you listen closely to those wondrous screams, cries for help, the children’s shrieking.”

The ink-coloured air began to weaken, but the green flow still persisted in healing Lu Xun’s wounds.

“Tut tut, the Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Dust Continent really bestowed you with considerable favor—gifting you both monstrous cultivation talent and an unrivaled appearance.”

“However, you’ll die before long, truly a waste.” Yi Xuan finished speaking and with a swipe of his hand, Lu Xun’s ink-colored airflow dissipated.

“How about this, you will collapse after a while. Let me show right now, how this city will be destroyed.” Yi Xuan initiated conversation.

Since his encounter with Lu Xun, he had lost too much, and endured too much.

He took an endless interest in tormenting him.

A flash of purple light surged towards the wall of Blooming City.

However, the next moment, Lu Xun, who he thought incapable of fighting, disappeared.

Sword Qi swirled around Lu Xun’s fingertips, stabbing towards him.

He thought the Sword Qi was charging at the purple light. After all, if he didn’t resist, the purple light could kill him too.

As a result… the Sword Qi attacked him directly!

As for the beam that was heading towards Blooming City, Lu Xun took it head-on with his body!

Lu Xun’s objective was simple. He wanted to see who between them, could cling onto life longer!

Since earlier, Lu Xun had been pretending to be out of combat power, and the smile on his face was solely to provoke Yi Xuan.

Don’t forget, his physical body was equivalent to a Superior Spirit Sword, surpassing ordinary people by far.

In the worst case scenario… they could make a deadly exchange!

Lu Xun’s body was torn to pieces in an instant, but his Finger-tip Sword Qi had also sliced a bloody line across Yi Xuan’s neck.

Until his dying moment, Yi Xuan’s face was filled with disbelief.

“This guy… Isn’t he afraid of death?” This was his last thought.

Lu Xun was sent flying, rolling on the ground in a disheveled state.

He looked at his nearly drained health bar and felt extremely relieved.

“I didn’t die, that saves a resurrection turn.”

He glanced back at Blooming City; although he had taken the purple light with his body, the aftermath had still destroyed the city wall of Blooming City.

Yi Xuan had previously stated that he felt Lu Xun was unworthy of Heavenly Dao’s various favors, claiming that it was unjust for Heavenly Dao.

Pah! Low-grade trash talk!

Could I, Lu Xun, be infuriated by such low-grade trash talk?

He used the sword sheath as a crutch, barely rising from the ground while his entire body trembled.

Once he had shakily gotten up, he used his last bit of Divine Sense to examine the situation within Blooming City.

Luckily, only the city wall was destroyed, there was no loss of life.

—He had protected them.

With his flesh and blood.

The blood-covered man, covered in wounds and pain, yet brimming with arrogance, held onto, the sword sheath, vomiting blood, and shouted upwards:

“Why should I not deserving?”

“I am the most deserving!”
