Chapter 78:

Chapter 78: Unbeknownst to him, Li Su had unleashed four top-grade spiritual weapons from within the Flying Immortal Sword. Even without their activation, it wouldnt have been long before this cultivator succumbed to Li Sus relentless assault. His considerable treasures proved no match for the overwhelming power of the Flying Immortal Sword. More Flying Immortal Swords joined the fray from behind, and the peak Golden Core stage demonic cultivator hastily employed a high-level talisman while tending to his injuries. Being impaled by the Flying Immortal Sword had dealt him a severe blow, and defending against it with regular magical treasures was impossible. He had talismans at his disposal, which, unlike conventional magical treasures, were simpler to use and required less energy, especially in dire situations. The talisman offered him temporary protection, granting him some respite. Saintess, save me! the peak Golden Core stage cultivator desperately cried out as he continuously retreated. His talisman could no longer withstand the ceaseless attacks, and more Flying Immortal Swords closed in on him. The speed they approached was too rapid, especially given his injuries. Just as it seemed, he was about to be riddled with holes, a black streak of light shot towards him and formed a spherical shield around the peak Golden Core stage cultivator, repelling all incoming attacks. Numerous Flying Immortal Swords struck the shield but failed to break through. Observing this, Li Su let out a light snort and gestured. In the next instant, the Flying Immortal Swords dispersed in all directions. This isnt good! The expressions of the other Golden Core stage demonic cultivators shifted rapidly as Li Su renewed his assault. At this moment, the Sect Master appeared and intercepted the attack. Nascent Soul, the Saintess of the Silent Moon declared, acknowledging the Flying Immortal Sects Nascent Soul cultivator. Despite this, her demeanor remained cold and devoid of emotion. Her gaze exuded a chilling intent to kill. A Nascent Soul cultivator? So what! Nevertheless, she silently donned a pair of black gloves, her entire essence fully mobilized, indicating her serious intent. Sect Master, I leave her to you, Li Sus voice echoed at this moment. Inside him, energy ripples persisted, and his head buzzed from directly confronting the Saintess of the Silent Moons attack. While he had managed to withstand it, the impact felt similar to crossing over 99 speed bumps at 80 miles per hour. Li Su suppressed the discomfort in his body and unleashed the Flying Immortal Sword once more. Simultaneously, the Sect Master proactively engaged the Saintess of the Silent Moon. Not good! The faces of several Golden Core stage demonic cultivators underwent drastic changes as Li Su launched another assault. The Saintess of the Silent Moons visage remained frosty as she moved her hands, wearing the black gloves. Suddenly, the vision of several elders became blurred. Li Sus gaze flickered. Soul-type magical artifact! Li Su forcibly calmed himself and scrutinized the situation. He realized that, at some point, the sky had become densely threaded with black threads, each adorned with numerous bells. As the Saintess of the Silent Moon moved, the sound emitted by these bells filled the entire space. Quick, cover your ears! Outside and inside the Flying Immortal Sect, disciples were affected, albeit to a lesser extent, thanks to the protective formation. The sound from the bells reached them despite the formations protection. The protective formation still played a role. Otherwise, the ordinary disciples inside the Flying Immortal Sect would have been severely affected. Ring, ring, ring, ring~ Strengthening spiritual consciousness was fundamental, as it also fortified spiritual awareness. Improving spiritual awareness was easier than enhancing spiritual consciousness. Typically, practitioners needed special techniques, pills, and rare materials or, like demonic cultivators, relied on plundering to enhance their spiritual consciousness. Li Su concentrated on using the Flying Immortal Sword to sever the threads while defending against attacks with the Green Cloud Mirror. Beside him, the Sect Leader gave her all. The Holy Maiden of Silent Moon brandished a crescent-moon-shaped treasure, leaving behind ethereal afterimages as she engaged in a fierce duel with the Sect Leader. The tolling of the bells grew ever louder. However, Li Sus Flying Immortal Sword soon began to cut through the silk threads one after another. These silk threads were formidable treasures, but they couldnt withstand the relentless assault of Li Sus Flying Immortal Sword. Simultaneously, the Holy Maiden of Silent Moon activated two treasures and launched a magical attack amid the battle. However, the sect leader held her ground, blocking the attack with impressive resilience. It seems the sect leaders golden core is quite potent, Li Su observed. The sect leader had recently attained the Nascent Soul stage, and her strength didnt match the Holy Maiden of Silent Moons. The sect leader blocked her attacks even with the Holy Maiden using a soul-enhancing treasure. This indicated the high quality of the sect leaders Golden Core, which promised an even stronger Nascent Soul. Li Su didnt want to fall behind, so he gritted his teeth and fully activated his true essence, aware that this battle would somewhat affect his spiritual soul. He remained undeterred, planning to compensate for the damage with future rewards. More silk threads were severed, and Golden Core cultivators tried to assail Li Su, but he paid them no mind. He refrained from activating the Great Yan Sword Formation as the timing wasnt right. Starting the formation required time, and the Holy Maiden was currently dominant. If he initiated it prematurely, she might sense the danger and escape. Frustration brewed among several Golden Core demonic cultivators as Li Sus Green Cloud Mirror effectively shielded against their attacks. The silk threads continued to be severed.
