Chapter 504: Won?
A hint of surprise appeared in Qing Lingyan’s eyes. All this while she only knew that Ghost Hand’s medical skills and pill refinement skills were better than those of his own masters, but she never thought that his Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique was so strong either. It seemed as though there wouldn’t be much suspense to today’s competition anymore.
Ling Chuxi had long since been on guard against the other party using such a move and now even more carefully kept her mind on guard. However, when white light appeared in his eyes, Ling Chuxi still felt an odd, peculiar aura piercing into her mind like a thin needle. She now knew that the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique was not as scary as she initially thought it to be, but since both their cultivation levels were more or less the same and she still had to take care of the pill refinement side of the competition as well, even just a small bit of influence upon her mind would affect the final outcome of her winning of losing.
From where they watched, the expressions of Su Yizhi and the rest of the Su family members also changed. He naturally could tell since the beginning of the competition that Ghost Hand was not someone from the Qiu family’s Life Transformation Hall. If anyone from their younger generation had such abilities then there was no need for them to use such malicious, underhanded methods. However, just as how Ling Chuxi joined the Su family’s Resurrection Hall, Ghost Hand naturally could hide his true allegiance and help the Qiu family. As long as he did not use the martial arts techniques and methods of Cold Moon Palace, no one could make any comments on the matter. However, now that he had actually used the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, it showed his desperation to win.
Even if he was indeed someone from Cold Moon Palace, for him to actually be able to use the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique while simultaneously competing in simultaneous martial arts and pill refinement competitions, what kind of a monster was this Ghost Hand? One needed to know that using Battle Qi to stimulate the mind’s concentration was even more difficult to execute than other martial arts skills. Really, one could not know how he managed to do it.
What Su Yizhi was more worried about was that the moment Ling Chuxi was affected by the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, even if it was just for a split moment, Ghost Hand could successfully refine the pill a little faster than her, then he could fully concentrate on attacking her. If that was the case, Ling Chuxi’s attention would still have to be split into two, how could she withstand a fully focused attack by Ghost Hand?
Seeing Ling Chuxi’s figure, Su Yizhi and the rest of the Su family members felt their hearts falling into the depths of a valley.
Ling Chuxi’s heart clenched. She bit the tip of her tongue, resulting in a wave of intense pain that transferred her mind’s focus away from the attack and into a state that was unprecedentedly clear. Her fingers moved faster and in an even more agile manner as the application methods she used as she flitted past the pill furnace became more intense. The only thing she could do now was to try her best to catch up with Ghost Hand and successfully refine the Crisis Reverse Pill before he did.
Ghost Hand could tell of Ling Chuxi’s plans and sneered. Ling Chuxi had a feeling that the thin needle piercing into her consciousness that was created through the concentration of Ghost Hand’s mind was being enlarged through his sneering attitude and it became like a spear piercing into the depths of her mind.
At this moment, the Dazzling Heart Stone around her wrist became incomparably cold, emitting a mysterious and colorful light that was hard for an outsider to notice. Ling Chuxi could clearly feel a wave of a cold and gloomy aura that she herself had never noticed before quickly flow from her Qi Ocean and into her meridians. This feeling was actually identical to the cold and gloomy aura she felt when she was promoted to the realm of Great Fulfilment.
It was just that this time, the cold and gloomy aura gave off a comfortable, nice feeling, as though her every pore was being immersed in clear waters, making even her mind become clearer. The spear piercing through to the depths of her mind scattered and turned into naught under this surge of cool energy.
“Argh!” shrieked Ghost Hand suddenly and miserably as he spat out a mouthful of blood. The white light in his eyes scattered and terror was written all over his empty eyes. His entire body started to tremble before falling to the ground.
Almost at the same time, am immortal like chirring was emitted from Ling Chuxi’s pill furnace. Before the pill furnace’s cover bounced open, a crystal-like light emitted from within accompanied by a refreshing medicinal fragrance.
Her Crisis Reverse Pill had been successfully refined and Ghost Hand was lying prone on the ground, without anyone knowing if he was dead or alive.
Then, did this mean that in this Sword Pill Meeting, the winner was none other than Resurrection Hall with the stream of knowledge inherited by the Su family?!
