The Six Immortals - Chapter 182

Chapter 182 – The Green Phoenix

As for Bi Fan, he hadn’t even considered the idea of bringing out the Chimera yet.

The two fighters had exchanged hundreds of strokes in an instant, and Bi Fan’s situation was looking even worse than before.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s entire body was reeking with inauspicious aura, and it seemed as if she had come straight from hell.

Moreover, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had turned her defensive into attack now, and had started using ‘The Yin Yang Sword’.

Bi Fan had already seen ‘The Yin Yang Sword’ law in action several times, but he was still finding it difficult to cope up.

Bi Fan knew where the flaws of the skill lay, but since Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was changing her style very quickly, Bi Fan was unable to react quickly enough to exploit his knowledge’s potential.

Moreover, since Bi Fan needed it to look as if he was being affected by the evil spirits, he couldn’t use his true strength, which is why he wasn’t attacking with brute force.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu on the other hand, was callous and aggressive, while her evil spirits seemed very frightening.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was so pleased with her position that she had completely forgotten about her energy consumption levels.

“What is Brother Bi Fan doing? He’s even allowing little girls to bully him now?!” Jing Feng was getting impatient now.

“It’s a little strange… Bi Fan seems to be acting weak for some reason. Maybe he’s just trying to trick her into consume more energy.” Yan Yu Si seemed unsure about her assessment.

“That’s actually quite possible; this kid is very tricky, and tends to hide his real strength. If he was actually using his real strength, then he’d have finished this a long time ago.” Jing Feng nodded.

The Yin Yang Sword – the negative and positive sword!

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu suddenly cast out a strong attack since she realized that she had consumed too much energy, and was now looking to adapt a blitzkrieg strategy to end the fight as soon as possible.

“Floating Sword!” Bi Fan finally stopped pretending and launched a ferocious counter attack.

Bi Fan employed his real strength in the attack, and immediately turned the tables.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was completely overawed to see the sudden change in Bi Fan’s strength. She was completely confused to see this new fighting power from Bi Fan since she was expecting him to have been affected by her evil spirits.

“How could that be? Don’t tell me?…. was ‘the Fiend Fright burst’ ineffective?” Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was terribly confused.

But then again, she was one of the best disciples of the Wu Ji Sect, and she immediately regained her composure.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu clearly knew that she had consumed too much energy and wouldn’t be able to compete with Bi Fan at this point.

“Phoenix, come out.” Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had no other option but to call out her beast pet.

A huge green colored Phoenix appeared on the stage. The bird quickly spread its huge wings, soared into the sky and started hovering over the stage.

The beastly bird’s majestic beauty was gracefully concealing its underlying strength.

Judging by the bird’s momentum, it seemed as if the phoenix had already reached the peak of the ‘transformation’ layer.

The green colored phoenix wasn’t just beautiful in appearance, but awfully strong as well.

Since Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had summoned her beast pet, it was evident that she was aiming for a victory here.

If she defeated Bi Fan, then the Wu Ji Sect would inevitably occupy the first two spots of the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon list.

But now, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had no more hidden trump cards left; and nothing else to hide either.

The faces of the Quinyang Sect disciples drastically changed colors the moment the Phoenix made its entrance, and they all seemed to have lost hope now.

“Oh gosh, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s pet is so strong, ah.” Mo Nan was completely astonished.

“Brother Bi Fan also has a beast pet, so there’s no need to worry about him. He always gets us worried for no reason at all.” Jing Feng’s smile eased up the mood in the dressing room.

“What? Brother Bi Fan has a beast pet? Why would he conceal it from us for so long then?” Mo Nan was a bit peeved.

“Oh, I’m definitely not going to let him off easy for this.” Ji Ying Lan laughed.

Jing Feng said: “That’s for sure. But I’m afraid that we’ll have to wait a bit longer to see Brother Bi Fan’s pet.”

“What are you saying? Brother Bi Fan has more hidden strength?” Ji Ying Lan’s mouth fell open in shock.

“Yes. Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu isn’t strong enough to force Brother Bi Fan into summoning his beast pet.” Jing Feng was very confident about his analysis.

The green colored Phoenix and its master immediately started attacking Bi Fan in unison.

Since Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had consumed a lot of energy, the Phoenix was leading the attacks.

The green colored Phoenix was so strong, that Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu barely had to do any work, while Bi Fan was already struggling to cope up.

Bi Fan wasn’t much afraid of the Phoenix, but was still playing cagey since he was wary of Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu.

Even though she had consumed a lot of energy, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was still an elite Wu Ji Sect disciple at the end of the day, and it would be quite foolish to write her off yet.

Bi Fan was using his sword to battle the Phoenix, but wasn’t able to do any harm to it.

The Phoenix’s feathers were quite dense and strong, and his attacks were barely able to scratch the bird’s body.

“Beating my Phoenix is beyond your skill.” Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu narrated in a cold voice.

First the Phoenix had an astonishing defense, and on top of that, since it was an aerial enemy, Bi Fan’s sword play, and generally speaking close-combat techniques, was plainly ineffective.

But the Phoenix was accustomed to fighting ground-bound targets, and would suddenly and ferociously dive downwards, employing its scary claws to attack the enemy.

Bi Fan had barely managed to avoid the bird’s claws a few times, and was beginning to fear the bird’s capability now; a fact, which was obvious from his sweat studded body.

Since Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had revealed all her trump cards, Bi Fan decided to employ a blitzkrieg strategy as well.

“The Immortal Finger – The Immortal Yin Yang!”

Bi Fan cast out his stunt, and the attack charged towards its target with a force much greater than that of a sword attack.

The invisible attack charged out silently and hit the bird accurately in its lower abdomen.

“Wooo…..” the bird screamed as it lost some of its feathers, and started to spiral downwards from the sky.

The bird quickly realized that it was spiraling down into the mouth of its death, and started to flap its wings in a desperate attempt to regain altitude, too afraid to descend to the ground below.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu quickly realized that the Phoenix had sustained a major injury, and immediately conceded the fight without any making any further attempts to fight back; tears streamed down her cheeks when she saw her magnificent bird in a state of acute pain.

Bi Fan had won, and without making too much of an effort either.

Many of the spectators dropped their glasses when they realized that Bi Fan had won; since not a lot of people were expecting him to get a favorable result.

In fact, the few people who were supporting Bi Fan at the beginning of the contest had already abandoned hope when Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had summoned her beast pet.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s green colored Phoenix was the strongest summoned pet of the tournament so far.

Even Bi Fan hadn’t expected to beat the bird this easily.

“It worked!” Bi Fan was so excited that he almost cheered out.

“Bi Fan! Bi Fan!…..”

Several viewers jumped up in cheers as Bi Fan strode down the contest stage.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s cold eyes were watching Bi Fan’s back, while her bird bled in her arms.

“Ooo…. Chilly!” Bi Fan suddenly felt a chilly sensation creeping down his back.

Bi Fan immediately realized that this sensation was being incited by Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu, but he didn’t turn around to confront her, and quickly returned to his Sect’s dressing room.

Mo Nan pulled Bi Fan aside and said: “Brother Bi Fan, you’ve been concealing too much from us! What other secrets are you hiding?”

“Ah! Since you say that they are secrets, then I can’t really expose them.” Bi Fan smiled.

“There’s no need to push Brother Bi Fan; I believe that we’ll get to see his all his tricks when he plays against Wu Ji Xuan day after tomorrow.” Jing Feng came to Bi Fan’s rescue.

Mo Nan said: “Well, I’ll let you slip by this one time. But since Brother Bi Fan has beaten Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu, we must go back and celebrate today.”

“Yes, we must celebrate properly today. The Quinyang Sect’s results have never been so good; we’ve achieved a record today!” Ling Xin Ya was beaming a proud smile.

The Quinyang Sect’s contests had already ended, so the disciples continued to chatter and laugh excitedly.

The contest day ended, and Wu Ji Xuan had remained unbeaten; as expected, and had qualified to face Bi Fan for the first spot of the Jiu Yu Hidden Dragon List.

Day after tomorrow, Bi Fan would have to face Wu Ji Xuan, and their duel would determine the winner of the tournament.
