This was a mountain hollow.
At this moment, two figures stood side by side, both frowning slightly as they looked at the pile of corpses not far ahead.
“It seems the enemies of your Wind Thunder Mountain are not just me alone!”
Mo Fan spoke with a light laugh, while also examining the battle traces around, only to find that the wounds on those corpses were incredibly smooth, like mirror surfaces.
It was as if they had been instantly dismembered by some sharp weapon.
“A quarter of an hour ago their marks were still on the life jade, I didn’t expect them to all die so quickly, and there’s even a trace of sword qi lingering here.
It seems the culprit is a powerhouse skilled in swordsmanship!”
Bai Shuang murmured to herself, then said to Mo Fan, “Can you find out from their wandering souls who did it?”
“I can, but is there a need?
There must be no shortage of powerhouses who came to the Dragon Ruins this time, it’s normal for these fellows to provoke someone and end up wiped out.
Are you planning to avenge them or something?” Mo Fan chuckled lightly.
“Don’t you think such a swordsmanship expert is enough to make demons wary?
If we can learn about him in advance, even if we face him later, we won’t be too passive.
Moreover, I feel that fellow is nearby, perhaps watching us in secret right now!” Bai Shuang sneered.
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan’s heart jolted, and after careful thought, it was indeed possible.
Thinking of this, he simply released his vast divine sense, probing the surroundings.
And he really did spot a figure.
It was a white-clothed youth carrying a sword on his back, the instant Mo Fan’s divine sense discovered him, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, then he drew the long sword from the scabbard on his back.
“Swish!”
With one slash, the sword qi grew in the wind, sweeping horizontally for several li, in a blink it approached right in front of the two demons.
Mo Fan’s pupils contracted sharply, he looked up to see a massive white bolt streaking across the sky, like a ripple rising in water, huge enough to cover the entire mountain hollow!
“It’s sword qi!”
Bai Shuang’s face changed slightly, she raised her hand and released one black light wheel after another in front of her.
At the same time, countless wind thunder spikes erupted, meeting that sword qi.
“Puff puff puff…!!”
However, a series of muffled sounds rang out, wherever the sword qi passed, the wind thunder spikes all exploded, and even those wind thunder light wheels burst one after another.
This caused the faces of the two demons to change slightly.
It seemed this sword could not be blocked!
Seeing this, Mo Fan very decisively hid behind Bai Shuang.
“What are you doing?!”
Bai Shuang glared, she hadn’t expected Mo Fan to hide behind her at such a critical moment.
“Naturally seeking big sister’s protection.”
Mo Fan grinned, while reaching out to wrap his arms around Bai Shuang’s slender waist, causing her to shudder.
“You…!!”
Bai Shuang was truly angered by Mo Fan’s shameless action.
At a critical moment, not only did he not contribute, but he even took advantage!
“Big sister was calling me little brother this and little brother that before, now that little brother is in trouble, naturally I need to seek big sister’s protection.”
Mo Fan blinked, speaking as if it were obvious, his arms around Bai Shuang’s waist tightening a bit more.
He wasn’t really trying to take advantage, nor was he unable to deal with this sword qi, but he didn’t want to expose too much of his strength in front of Bai Shuang.
At least until he killed Lei Yu Zi Dian, he didn’t want to reveal too much.
Of course, there was another main reason: he knew Bai Shuang possessed an extremely powerful defensive demon weapon, so naturally he didn’t want to exert himself.
Since he could slack off, why bother holding on?
Seeing the several divine abilities in front broken, although Bai Shuang was slightly annoyed inside, she had no time for other matters, and had to activate the defensive demon weapon on her body.
“Buzz—”
A humming sound rang out, a golden light emanated from the pendant on Bai Shuang’s neck, turning into a shield that enveloped the two demons.
And at this moment, that massive sword qi finally arrived, ultimately slashing fiercely onto the shield.
This shield indeed did not disappoint Mo Fan, it truly blocked the sword qi’s strike, and also caused the white-clothed youth several li away to let out a light “eh”.
But immediately after, he swung his sword continuously again, sword qi one stronger than the last, relentlessly slashing towards the two demons within the shield.
“Where the hell did this freak come from? Just ordinary sword qi is already this terrifying!
Wasn’t it said that the Dragon Ruins doesn’t allow cultivators above Foundation Establishment?
This is probably on par with a Core Formation sword cultivator!”
Mo Fan cursed under his breath, truly shocked by the opponent’s sword qi.
“It’s possible that fellow really is a Core Formation sword cultivator.
Human sword cultivators are synonymous with attack power, this type of cultivator is far stronger than ordinary cultivators of the same realm.
Stinky little brother, hurry up and think of something, or our sibling pair might become a pair of doomed lovebirds today.” Bai Shuang snorted coldly.
“Big sister must be joking, I see your demon weapon’s defence is extremely powerful, the opponent’s sword qi looks fierce, but I’m afraid it won’t be that easy to shatter your shield, right?” Mo Fan laughed hey hey.
“Stinky little brother, do you think big sister is lying to you?”
Bai Shuang spoke irritably, “My demon weapon is naturally powerful, but no matter how powerful, it needs vast demon power to sustain it, big sister is only at demon general realm, I can’t hold on for too long.
When the demon power is exhausted, are you going to use your thick face to withstand the opponent’s sword qi?”
“…”
Mo Fan was speechless, thinking this female demon was really humorous, even at a time like this still teasing him.
Mo Fan also understood that this white demoness’s words were probably half true and half false, he couldn’t fully believe them.
But since the other party had already said it to this extent, if he didn’t contribute a bit, it really seemed unjustifiable.
So he directly said, “Protect my safety, let me deploy my divine ability to eliminate him!”
With that, golden light bloomed from Mo Fan’s forehead, tiger pattern markings emerged.
Divine ability, making a tiger of someone!
The next moment, dozens of ghost slaves flew out, turning into clusters of ghost mist directly flying towards the distant white-clothed youth.
These ghost slaves were soul bodies, formed of energy, fundamentally unafraid of those sword qi, letting them slash through their bodies.
“Ghost controlling method?”
“Could it be a tiger demon from White Tiger Sacred Mountain in the hundred thousand great mountains?”
In the distance, the white-clothed youth’s eyes narrowed upon seeing this, then a ball of fire light emerged in his eyes, his long sword suddenly covered with a layer of crimson flames.
“Not good, this fellow can actually empower his long sword?”
Since Mo Fan’s divine sense had been locking onto the youth, every move of the youth had not escaped his gaze, seeing the opponent’s action now, Mo Fan’s heart jolted.
Ghost slaves as soul bodies were naturally unafraid of sword qi and all physical attacks, but they were very fearful of thunder and fire, things of extreme yang.
“Slash!”
At the same time, the youth finally swung his sword again, raging flames instantly turned into a sword arc, wherever it passed, numerous ghost slaves directly scattered in soul and smoke, only a few ghost slaves screaming and fleeing in all directions.
“Boom!”
It was also at this moment that Mo Fan could no longer stay put, he directly flew out of the shield, his body like lightning, in a few breaths he arrived not far from the youth.
“You’re that tiger demon?”
The youth smiled and spoke, raising his hand for a slash!
“Courting death!”
Mo Fan snorted coldly, his right hand instantly turning the size of a door panel, fiercely slapping out!
This time the sword qi finally did not remain unstoppable, but was forcibly dispersed by Mo Fan’s slap.
“Clang!”
The youth thrust his sword, colliding with Mo Fan’s right palm.
“Bang!”
The next moment, the youth was slapped flying, like a cannonball crashing hard into the mountain.
While on Mo Fan’s side, his right palm was stained with blood.
He looked down, only to see the earth element armour on his palm’s surface broken, and along with it the black dragon scales and flesh.
This sword, bone-deep!
Mo Fan’s pupils contracted slightly, inhaling a cold breath.
He understood, if not for his right hand fusing with the Heaven Swallowing Bone, I’m afraid that sword just now would have severed his hand.
“Cough cough… such strong power, you’re simply a freak!”
In the distance, mountain rocks exploded, the dusty and dirt-faced youth flew out from the mud and stone, blood overflowing from mouth and nose, but his gaze towards Mo Fan became increasingly bright.
That was the joyful look of a hunter discovering prey!
