Although the blue ghost fire burned the Ice Dragon Sword, it completely disappeared after Ling Xiao swung the sword slightly. It didn’t cause him any damage.
However, Hei Suo was obviously not satisfied with this result. After Ling Xiao blocked this attack, his next attack came again.
“Ghost Fire, Third Style——Flame Rush.”
Hei Suo’s eyes flashed with cold light, and the whip actually bounced off the ground at a very strange angle, and along with fire energy spurting from its tip, it shot towards Ling Xiao’s abdomen.
“Wind Celestial Phenomena-Melting Water!”
The same sword technique, but with the addition of the power of celestial phenomena, immediately produced a completely different effect.
The originally thick sticky ripple-shaped true essence actually began to spin rapidly, like a violent tornado.
The blue flame was directly swept into it like a firefly in the midst of a gale, then disappeared into nothingness.
But the sword qi continued to rage, spreading to Hei Suo, which forced him to take two to three steps back.
In this series of attacks and defenses, Ling Xiao was slightly better.
Hei Suo was stunned for a moment, and with his heart full of anger, he said coldly: “Good! Ling Xiao, I admit that you are stronger than Wan Yanjun. You are indeed qualified to fight against me, but you are only qualified. Just now, it was just probing!”
After speaking, Hei Suo swung his black whip.
And that black whip unexpectedly split the Ghost Fire Martial Soul into seven parts.
Those seven ghost fires were like seven strange lamps, flickering with bright and dim radiance. In addition, sometimes, they looked burning hot, and sometimes, they looked ice-cold.
They made people feel as if they had stepped into hell, and the hairs all over the body involuntarily stood up.
“Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp!”
“I never thought that this Ling Xiao could actually force Senior Brother Hei Suo to use the Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp. Now, Ling Xiao will suffer!”
“Yes, once Senior Brother Hei Suo uses the Seven Start Ghost Fire Lamp, it means that he is serious. Just a moment ago, he was just playing around!”
The inner disciples made comments again. After all, Hei Suo rarely used Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp even when he was exchanging pointers with other inner disciples. But once it was used, the opponent would suffer a miserable defeat.
Ling Xiao said with a light smile: “Senior Brother Hei Suo, this Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp is dazzling, but I wonder if it is truly useful or not! A flashy but without substance thing is truly meaningless.”
“You will know after you test it!”
Hei Suo snorted.
“Is that so? It seems that I, this junior brother, also need to get serious. Otherwise, wouldn’t that be too boring?”
After he spoke, another phantom appeared behind Ling Xiao.
It was a black leopard, climbing on top of the glacier, and it looked very alert.
Ling Xiao’s aura also suddenly became stronger. The combined power of two martial souls was truly extraordinary.
The destructive aura was actually on par with the power of that Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp.
The terrifying aura produced by those two people spread around. The four elders had no reaction, but those elite inner disciples could feel their bodies getting cold sometimes and hot sometimes. It was very uncomfortable.
But at this moment, they were unwilling to leave. The more it was like this, the more exciting the battle.
Why would they be willing to leave now?
“Interesting, now, I admit that you are indeed qualified to make me fight seriously. You can barely make me use 50% of my power! If you die too fast, it will be too boring. I want to make you collapse in agony!”
“Too much nonsense!”
Ling Xiao indifferently looked at Hei Suo and said: “Since you have time to speak nonsense, why don’t you think about how to win? Otherwise, you will die on the spot, and Elder Jin would also not look good at that time.”
Hei Suo was truly arrogant enough. His cultivation base was just Initial Rank Four Transcendent Realm, but it was like he had already stepped into Celestial Realm. At every turn, he was talking about qualification, as if the overall situation was under his grasp.
It was truly ridiculous.
He possessed the Landscape Soul, but even he didn’t dare to say that he had a complete grasp of the overall situation. After all, many martial artists had their trump card, which was basically impossible or very hard to predict.
Hei Suo’s arrogance truly disgusted Ling Xiao.
“Rest assured, I won’t let you die quickly! I will torture you nicely! And make you use your mouth to beg for mercy!”
Hei Suo’s voice was trembling. His anger almost made him lose his self-control. He coldly spat out words, one by one: “Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp-Dark Curtain!”
After his voice resounded.
The originally bright underground palace suddenly became dark.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Along with seven successive sounds, the seven ghost fire lamps lit up one after another, forming a shape of a ladle in the sky.
Then, with Hei Suo swinging his whip, those seven ghost fire lamps disappeared again.
However, Ling Xiao could feel that they hadn’t truly disappeared but were rapidly approaching him in the darkness.
Gulp!
The onlooking inner disciples swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
This feeling of pressure and fear truly made them uncomfortable. On the pitch-black battlefield, they couldn’t see anything. It was as if a terrifying behemoth had swallowed the entire area.
Ling Xiao quietly stood in the same place without emitting any aura from his body.
Now, it was like he had disappeared suddenly.
He was still holding the sword, but there was no movement.
However, in the black curtain, seven fires suddenly appeared, and along with bone-chilling killing intent and terrifying power, they attacked Ling Xiao’s seven vital parts respectively.
At that moment, Ling Xiao suddenly swung his sword.
“Rain Celestial Phenomena-Condense Water!”
After Ling Xiao made this move, in the place where Ling Xiao had swung his sword, it unexpectedly felt like it was raining.
Moreover, these raindrops had already condensed into tiny ice beads before falling to the ground. And under the guidance of the Ice Dragon Sword, they enveloped those seven ghost fire lamps with earth-shaking momentum.
Bang, bang, bang…
The ghost fire lamps shattered, and then the black curtain suddenly became bright. Furthermore, the ice beads with unstoppable momentum continued to fly towards Hei Suo along with the whistling Ice Dragon Sword.
Hei Suo’s eyes were filled with shock.
But the shock disappeared soon.
Then, the seven ghost fire lamps appeared again. But this time, they didn’t appear in front of Ling Xiao, rather in front of Hei Suo.
The seven ghost fire lamps formed a ring, spun faster and faster, then the blue flame actually turned into a big fireball, wrapping Hei Suo.
Ling Xiao’s sword of condensed water along with countless ice beads hit the fireball made up with the blue flame, producing popping sounds. Then, the ice beads shattered in succession, but they were unable to penetrate the fireball.
“Did you think that it’s so easy to destroy the Seven Star Ghost Fire Lamp? Its attack power is high, and its defense power also similarly makes you despair!”
With a restored proud sneer, Hei Suo said: “Useless, with the defense made up of Seven Start Ghost Fire Lamp, I’m impregnable. Today, you will die beyond doubt!”
Until now, Hei Suo still believed that he had overall control of the situation, and he could take Ling Xiao’s life at any time, never thinking he might lose here.
