Chapter 846 Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan (1)
?
As the 3 incense time was almost up now, it was the time for Ji Yuan to duel with Number 1. But there was still no sight of his senior sister. Or even Xiao Muhan.
So Ji Yuan got up from his fake cultivation, the tens of thousands of onlookers began to scream or clapped that their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan was now standing up.
Ji Yuan saw that more than 99% of the onlookers were actually maidens. Men are fewer than few.
At the start, 10% of the onlookers were men but men are forbidden to touch the maidens here or they would be fined. So, they got squeezed out by the maidens who were all crowding and pushing one another to get a better view while Xu Yifei's female followers had formed a big circle around Ji Yuan and Number 1 to prevent anyone from approaching too near to them when the fight starts.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had also got up from her meditation and she was looking at Ji Yuan with a mocking look.
Ji Yuan was really disappointed that his senior sister was not here to see his duel.
He did not know that Chu Lixue was actually in the crowd but she could not even get Ji Yuan or the attention from any of the divine consorts because the onlookers were too numerous plus they were all talking nonstop and drowning her shouts.
In the end, she had to watch the fight between Number 1 and Ji Yuan from afar.
As for Xiao Muhan, he could not even get into the perimeter of the onlookers and he could not even see Ji Yuan or Number 1 as the numerous maidens warned him not to touch them or get too close to them.
Xiao Muhan could only sigh with great resignation as he watched more and more maidens squeezing with one another into the street where the fight would take place but as a man, he could only stand with the other men at the other side of the street where he could not even see a thing.
Back to where Ji Yuan and Number 1 were now as they had both stood up to face each other.
The Goddess Ai Tina, the 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all nervously looking at Ji Yuan now and they all hope that he could be able to stand a chance.
Only Destiny remained unconcerned and she was still casually drinking her spirit tea.
JI Yuan asked Number 1, "You have rest enough?"
He did not see her taking any profound pills at all. Usually when a cultivator consumed a profound pill, they had to cultivate to gain the best efficiency for it or most of the profound properties of the profound pill will be wasted.
Just cultivating for a short 3 incense time was not going to help his opponent to regain much of her profound strength.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely said nonchalantly, "I have rested. We can start our duel now."
Ji Yuan had displayed his immortal scabbard on his back and this startled Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao a little.
She was thinking: He has an immortal scabbard?
Ji Yuan had also flashed his 9 divine swords on the ground and this also startled Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.
"I just wonder something before we actually fight," Ji Yuan frowned. "Do we have a feud or what?"
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I am from the Evil Cultivation Palace and I serve the Great Demon God. Is this a good enough reason for us to fight?"
Ji Yuan chuckled, "It is a good enough reason for us to duel…"
And he had taken out Xiang Li from his immortal scabbard, revealing his divine sword to be an emperor-step divine sword.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was startled but she was now smiling now; it was because she seemed to have found a worthy sword cultivator to fight against now.
"Where is your sword?"
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply raised her scabbard in front of her, "This scabbard is my sword."
Ji Yuan stared blankly at the scabbard that looked ordinary compared to his immortal scabbard, "Careful. It may break under my profound sword attack."
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "Don't worry. It won't."
Ji Yuan had also displayed his sword spirit on his hand as he raised Xiang Li up, "This is my sword spirit."
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had also flashed her sword spirit in the form of a brilliant white lily began to form on her forehead, "You can move your sword spirit to your hand? This will leave you quite defenseless or you are merely using your profound strength to lift your powerful divine sword?"
Ji Yuan did not answer her and he was suddenly solemn now.
The minute he saw her sword spirit, he was alarmed for the profound power of her sword spirit way stronger than his very own and he had immediately recognized her sword spirit as an ultra sword spirit.
He had suddenly decided to switch his strategy now by displaying another sword spirit on his left hand.
"Another sword spirit?"
All of a sudden Ji Yuan's two sword spirits disappeared from his hands and re-appeared on his forehead again as a new sword spirit.
The eyes of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao were wild with ecstasy now as she gasped, "You have an ultra sword spirit too…"
The Goddess Ai Tina was also looking startled; it was because Ji Yuan did not show hint that he had such a formidable sword spirit while they were inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.
Even Destiny was blinking her eyes as she recognized the profound power of Ji Yuan's sword spirit: Ultra sword spirit?
Unlike a normal sword spirit that can enhance a sword cultivation attacking profound power by 10-20% and increased profound strength by 10-20% at the same time, the ultra sword spirit can increase a sword cultivator's profound strength and power by 40-60%!
Ji Yuan had also taken out Anyang as his second emperor-step divine sword now.
He did not want to take out all his trump cards at the very first without clearly evaluating his opponent first but his guts feeling told him that this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not an opponent that he could underestimate at the very beginning of his fight.
"Another emperor-step divine sword!" Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was truly astonished.
All her previous analysis of this Ji Yuan was all wrong and it was no wonder why they had called him the number 1 sword cultivator in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity.
Ji Yuan frowned, "Now that you seen my divine swords, you still won't unsheathe your divine sword? Don't tell me that you practice a type of quick draw sword technique?"
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled, "Against you, it is still unnecessary for me to use my divine sword yet. Because the instant that I unsheathe my divine sword, you will surely die."
Ji Yuan: …
Is she insulting me?
Ji Yuan grinned back, "Even if I were to die from your divine sword, I will make sure that you lose all your clothes in this flimsy outfit of yours."
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: …
Xiang Li face-palmed herself: Big Brother, do you have to say so in public?
Anyang muttered weakly: That's our lord alright. He answered insult with an insult.
Almost all the maidens that could hear Ji Yuan had a flustered look as this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was really a peerless maiden of great beauty.
Even Destiny had looked up from sipping her spirit tea as she could not believe what she was hearing from this 'Great Spiritas Hero' Ji Yuan.
The Goddess Ai Tina, the 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all looking at Ji Yuan as though they were questioning their hearings.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao quickly composed herself to say coldly to Ji Yuan, "Since I am the challenger, I shall allow you to make your first move. But beware of this. My counter attack will be swift and merciless. So be careful of losing your head."
JI Yuan laughed as he positioned his two divine swords into an attack position, "Funny. I am also known as Headcutter Ji Yuan and it will such a pity to behead a beautiful maiden like yourself."
He was only teasing her for he preferred to leave his opponents a complete corpse. Moreover, beheading an opponent in actual combat was simply too difficult as the head position was also the most guarded position especially with an indestructible divine sword in front of the body.
He simply could not believe that this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would be able to behead him without unsheathing her sword.
And he had flashed forward with a tremendous speed and with his 2 divine swords in a grand cross attack position.
"Today, you will regret challenging this Number 2 Sword Under the Heavens, where I am the number 2 sword and there is no number 1 sword above me!"
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked amused as she calmly braced herself for the forthcoming attack and she found herself saying. "Heehee, today you have finally met your number 1 sword."
