Chapter 83
A sword talisman was a distinct method used by Human Immortal who had attained the Gold Core realm . The talisman itself was made using rare materials found in nature, and injected with a thread of sword energy into it by the Human Immortal . According to the quality of the material and the craftsmanship, the power a sword talisman could unleash usually ranging from ten to fifty percent of a sword energy strike of that particular Human Immortal . Only those sword talismans made using higher grade materials could unleash more than fifty percent of the strength .
The sword talisman in Taba Haofeng's hand was made from the juice of thousand years old 'Green Shell Leave', mixed with the skin of one hundred years 'Gold Toad' . These materials weren't of high quality, and the craftsmanship was just ordinary . Thus, the finished product was of the lowest grade . The strength it could unleash could barely reach nine percent of the strength of the Human Immortal who made it .
However, though it was only nine percent, it was nine percent from a full force strike from a Human Immortal of Gold Core realm . It was comparable to the combined full force strike from ten Embryonic Breath tier cultivators .
The bow of the boat was shattered by the sword beam . A large hole, with the diameter of nearly one hundred feet was created amidst the flowing water of the river . It was so deep that one could even see the bottom of the river through the hole . The intense sword energy was overflowing and spilling in all direction . Countless vague and dimmed silvery beams were seen swirling and slicing in the river, killing innumerable fishes nearby .
Wu Qi was now hovering in the middle of rushing and rocking sword energies of silver, holding both arms over his shoulder while defending against the intense attack . A layer of glowing blue curtain was seen blinking and flashing in the middle of his palms, protecting him from the assault of the sword energies . Four upper tier water elemental energy stones were hovering near his Dantian . From them, a huge amount of water elemental energy was rushing into his body continuously . Through his meridians, which were ten times stronger than ordinary cultivator of Xiantian, the energy quickly transformed into innate water energy, and then formed into a firm and thin layer of protective barrier outside his body .
The pressure pressing down from over his head was like a mountain . The sword energies kept cutting and slicing on his body and made him feel pain all over . His skin could no longer defend against the assault, as many parts were ripped and blood started bursting out from the wounds . If not because Wu Qi's innate water energy was extremely condensed and was excellent in restricting toughness with softness, along with the spinning characteristic that could fritter the sword energy unleashed from the sword talisman, Wu Qi would have long been torn apart by this mighty attack .
It was fortunate that Princess Zhang Le had given Wu Qi eight crates full of upper tier water elemental energy stones, and luckily, there was a miraculous technique in Scroll of Stealing that allowed Wu Qi to instantly draw all the energy in the energy stone . Or else, Wu Qi would have long been crushed into a meat paste by the sword talisman .
Inch by inch, Wu Qi was pushed down toward the bottom of the river by the sword energy . He raised his head and stared right at the face of Taba Haofeng through the dazzling light of blue and silver, who was smiling ferociously and showing a winning and pleased expression . Wu Qi remembered his smiling face, and remembered the crisis brought by this man today . If not because Wu Qi was a lucky man, Taba Haofeng's wish would have fulfilled today, as Wu Qi would be killed by this incredible sword talisman .
It was obvious that Taba Haofeng came prepared, as he actually brought a sword talisman with him!
Wu Qi let out a loud and long cry . Four water elemental energy stones hovering in front of his Dantian suddenly burst and flashed with a dazzling light before they turned into powder and dispersed . The surrounding river water suddenly turned violent, rolling and rocking, turning into white water vapor and surging into Wu Qi's body . Out of nowhere, a watery cloud emerged underneath his feet . By force, Wu Qi had circulated an unusual technique found in the Chapter of Water in Scroll of Stealing . His body was now emanating with a bone-piercing cold breeze .
A shivering water vapor was gathering and condensing in Wu Qi's lungs . A strange noise of 'Kook kook' was heard coming out from his mouth, and a vague white light was flashing near the corner of his lips . Both the water elemental energy from the energy stone and the water vapor that he absorbed from the outside were compressed by Wu Qi using a secret technique, forming into a shivering, razor sharp sword energy within his body .
Fearing the strength of the sword energy wasn't strong enough, Wu Qi gritted his teeth and took out a lower tier flying dagger from his storage ring, which he obtained in Little Meng City after killing Number Two, and swallowed into his mouth . The powerful divine sense instantly squeezed into the dagger, tentatively branding a spirit seal in its body . Then suddenly, Wu Qi's body shrunk inwards . Using his body as a furnace, he forcefully compressed the condensed sword energy and the flying dagger into one .
Taba Haofeng thought Wu Qi was dead . After all, he had used a sword talisman personally made by a Human Immortal of Gold Core realm . It was a weapon that he had begged using a hefty price, together with four beautiful girls . Wu Qi merely had the cultivation of Meridian Cultivating tier . How was it possible for him to escape from the slaughter of the sword talisman?
He raised his head up and let out a long sigh into the sky . Tears started to roll off Taba Haofeng's face . "Soul of my brother, you must be around here, witnessing how your brother avenged your death! Today, the resentment of blood had finally been paid with the enemy's death . My brother, you can now rest in peace!"
*Pop* The sword talisman shattered . The sword energy contained in it had been completely unleashed . As a peak Houtian warrior, Taba Haofeng hadn't possessed the ability to hover in midair . Thus, after losing the repulsive force from the sword energy, he made a spin in the air and slowly descended toward the deck .
The river water pushed and rolled back into the hole made by the sword energy, rocking and splashing, produced a loud noise that made one's ears ache . Massive amount of water vapor was being pushed up at least one hundred feet in the sky . Amidst this vast expanse of whiteness, Wu Qi soared up high while letting out a screechy laugh .
The screechy laugh was continued with a strange sound . Wu Qi suddenly opened his mouth, and a less than three feet long white beam was seen shooting out from it . It pierced through the air with a shivering breeze, aiming at Taba Haofeng's chest . The white beam was extremely cold, and wherever it passed, all the water vapor and droplets were instantly frozen, transforming into frost and falling off the air .
