Chapter 146: Qianji Disk
Mi Xiaojing constantly changed his techniques, trapping Chen Shouyi tightly. His first priority was to trap him, and then consider using the Qingmu Array to kill him.
He invested a large amount of spirit stones into the Qingmu Array, without any intention of saving them. He was determined to eliminate Chen Shouyi, which was his current biggest goal.
Mi Xiaojing himself didn't realize it, but at this moment, his killing intent was soaring, completely suppressing the compassion he had cultivated since childhood.
The formation of an idea is difficult, especially for Mi Xiaojing. The formation of killing intent is even more difficult. However, with Wang Weijun's continuous guidance and the real threats given by the cultivation world, especially the massacre of the Western Expansion Sect and the killing of the elders and masters of the sect, as well as Hong Qing just now, they were all living examples.
Mi Xiaojing was not a fool, on the contrary, he was very clever and made rapid progress in his studies. When faced with a real threat, he would naturally resist. Instinctively brainwashed, Mi Xiaojing began to take ruthless actions.
Mi Xiaojing said in his heart, "Since you want to kill me, don't blame me." Once he made up his mind, he would not waver. Wang Weijun was very satisfied with this. As long as this child understood one thing, he would definitely go all out, just like alchemy, just like cultivation.
The Qingmu Array in Mi Xiaojing's hands had never been used to its fullest potential, not because he couldn't control it, but because he was reluctant to fully activate the Qingmu Array, as it would consume a huge amount of spirit stones.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he was in the Western Expansion Sect, Mi Xiaojing was always penniless. It wasn't until he came to the Sword Heart Sect that he had a little wealth. However, for someone who was used to being poor, it was difficult for him to indulge in extravagance and waste.
This time, Mi Xiaojing had no choice. Chen Shouyi was a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, and his strength was too formidable for Mi Xiaojing. The ordinary use of the Qingmu Array was simply unable to kill his opponent.
What Mi Xiaojing wanted was not to trap Chen Shouyi, but to kill him. This required some complex changes, which all required a large amount of spirit stones to drive.
While Mi Xiaojing switched techniques and began to activate the Qingmu Array to launch an attack, Chen Shouyi was still trying to break free. He knew very well that breaking the formation was impossible, but there was still hope to break out.
Chen Shouyi tried various methods to break through, but unfortunately, his combat experience was insufficient. Although he was a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, most of his time was spent refining pills in the sect, and he rarely went out or experienced battles.
For a cultivator like him, who encountered someone one realm weaker than himself, it was almost impossible to completely overpower and win against someone of the same level.
A Qingmu Array, especially a large array refined by a cultivator at the Elemental Infant stage or above, was clearly beyond Chen Shouyi's means. He lacked means and breakthrough ideas. He was only desperately attacking in one direction, trying to break free.
Suddenly, the entire array stagnated. Chen Shouyi, who had been constantly tearing apart the Qingmu Array, became extremely uneasy. He still had some decisiveness. The magical sword instantly flew back and began to defend. The sword surrounded him, forming a hovering sword dragon that moved up and down. Its speed was so fast that any attack would be blocked in advance.
The Qingmu Array suddenly turned into countless sword shadows, shooting towards Chen Shouyi.
Swords flew in the sky and on the ground, dragging behind them trails of afterimages. In an instant, Chen Shouyi couldn't distinguish the directions anymore. He could only tightly guard his body. He was shocked in his heart. This was not the power that a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage could possess. It could create immense pressure on him, which proved that the level of this Qingmu Array was extremely high.
Until now, Chen Shouyi's heart began to panic.
For a cultivator like him with little combat experience, once his life was truly threatened, he would completely panic. Despite his cruel and ruthless nature towards others, when he fell into a dangerous situation, he immediately lost his composure.
He had killed many people in his life, but they were all done behind the scenes, calculating and striking when the time was right. Chen Shouyi didn't expect that this time, it would exceed his calculations.
As the saying goes, if you walk the night road too often, you will eventually encounter ghosts. The more calculating a person is, the more likely they will be calculated. This time, he fell into a trap, and he jumped into it willingly.
What was most hateful was that he had also resolved the enemy of the other party, even though that person was also his enemy. Suddenly, Chen Shouyi felt that he was a super idiot, a stupid fool. He hadn't taken the medicine, but he had seen the pill.
"Why does he have such a monstrous Qingmu Array!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this level of attack, Chen Shouyi could still hold on, but he knew very well that this was just the beginning. After all, he was a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, and he had this level of insight. He became even more nervous now. The deep sense of crisis, which penetrated into his bones, was like a knife that had almost pierced his heart. It was about to hit his heart.
Every cultivator, especially those who reached the Foundation Establishment stage, had some trump cards or life-saving treasures. Just like Hong Qing, he had a rare substitute puppet in his hands.
Chen Shouyi also had such a treasure, a formation disk. However, this formation disk was not used for battle, but for escape.
The Qianji Disk!
In the cultivation world, treasures for escaping were truly priceless. Every cultivator would strive to collect such treasures. If there was even a slight possibility, they would try to obtain such treasures.Of course, not every cultivator is so lucky to find a suitable life-saving treasure. Coincidentally, both individuals Mi Xiaojing encountered happened to have one. Hong Qing had a death-substitute puppet, while Chen Shouyi had a Qianji Disk.
The so-called Qianji Disk is an extreme application of formations, inspired by teleportation formations. This Qianji Disk is also a one-time-use item, and it's extremely difficult to activate because it requires the sacrifice of a spiritual ghost.
While it's possible to obtain a Qianji Disk, acquiring a spiritual ghost is much more challenging. The formation of a spiritual ghost requires very stringent conditions, and spiritual ghosts usually enter the spiritual ghost realm. Those that remain in this world are even rarer.
Chen Shouyi is an alchemy master who has exchanged many valuable items for his pills, including this Qianji Disk with a spiritual ghost.
Strictly speaking, this item wasn't exchanged for, but rather swindled. A disciple obtained the Qianji Disk from an ancient ruin without knowing what it was. Chen Shouyi discovered it during a trade and exchanged it for a few ordinary spirit pills.
When Chen Shouyi obtained this Qianji Disk, the spiritual ghost inside was on the verge of dissipating. After years of nurturing and consuming many of his resources, it gradually recovered. This is one of Chen Shouyi's trump cards.
Thinking of his trump card, Chen Shouyi's panic gradually subsided. Although he still felt extremely dangerous, he was able to think calmly. However, thinking of the cost of using the Qianji Disk, his heart sank to the bottom.
He had been careless! To be continued.
