Chapter 218: Chapter 155: Showdown_2
Li Shiming’s Broken Jade Sword flew out, significantly inferior in quality to the super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact, so he chose not to clash directly.
Like a leaping sprite, the Broken Jade Sword repeatedly and gently touched Du Bingyan’s super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact.
Every gentle touch of the Broken Jade Sword landed on the spine of the super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact, a control over the sword that secretly alarmed Du Bingyan.
Especially the speed at which Li Shiming controlled the sword, which was visibly faster than Du Bingyan.
“How could he possibly cultivate the ‘Sword Manipulation Technique’ to such an extent?” Du Bingyan thought in shock.
In fact, with Li Shiming’s current level of the ‘Sword Manipulation Technique’, even with the analysis supplement of an IBMz15, it was only comparable to Du Bingyan’s level of sword control.
For a cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm to achieve domination over other top cultivators of the same realm in sword control was almost impossible, as Li Shiming had the help of IBMz15, and Du Bingyan also had guidance from his mentors.
The primary reason Li Shiming was able to take the initiative was due to Spiritual Thought; the enhancement of Spiritual Thought on the Broken Jade Sword made it far more agile than Du Bingyan’s super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact.
Although Du Bingyan had been specially trained by the Holy Ice Sect, he had not obtained the cultivation method for Spiritual Thought, nor had he received any high-quality Elixir Pills that could generate Spiritual Thought.
That was also why Du Bingyan wanted to join a Golden Core Elder, who likely had such precious resources.
The super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact, constantly attacked by the Broken Jade Sword, had its rhythm disrupted and could no longer achieve its highest speed.
With wings flapping behind him, Li Shiming’s figure was always slightly faster than the super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact.
Although he had abandoned the idea of becoming a Sword Cultivator, the combat style of a Sword Cultivator was truly exhilarating.
Without even using the Spirit Turtle Shield for defense, merely with the Broken Jade Sword, even though it was of a lower quality than the super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact, he managed to suppress Du Bingyan’s super-grade sword-shaped magical artifact.
Seeing that his magical artifact could not much affect Li Shiming, Du Bingyan patted his waist and acquired a talisman.
Li Shiming had been watching his actions closely; seeing the Spiritual Power Pattern emanating from the activated talisman, he immediately increased his flying speed and made a dodging maneuver.
The talisman was sealed with a spell from the late-stage Qi Refining realm, and because his study of spells was minimal, not to mention those of the Holy Ice Sect.
But by sensing the Spiritual Power Pattern released by the talisman, he could judge its power.
With the activation of the talisman, the air around him suddenly began to flow violently, creating a fierce wind.
Within the wind, ice crystals appeared and then turned into a blizzard.
Due to the blizzard, a layer of ice crystals rapidly formed on Li Shiming’s body.
Especially the pair of wings at his back, which, due to the impact of the blizzard, even had their flapping speed greatly reduced.
For this, he even refrained from using the Broken Jade Sword to strike aggressively and instead exchanged moves with Du Bingyan, which helped him understand combat against late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, but Du Bingyan did not wish to engage properly.
The five Qi Refining cultivators held array flags in their hands. Their task was to stand in five directions and use the array flags to trap Li Shiming inside.
Originally, they thought it would just be a spectacle, seeing how Du Bingyan would easily beat Li Shiming.
But after only a few rounds, Du Bingyan called them to join in, which was entirely against his usual style.
However, they did not hesitate and each took out their magic artifacts, moving towards the center of the battle.
“Forget it, let’s end the fight!” Li Shiming said with a helpless expression, speaking softly.
He did not want to face an assault from six late-stage Qi Refining cultivators at the same time, nor did he hold back his strength anymore.
Du Bingyan also heard his words, and at first, he was stunned, but then anger rose in his heart.
Although the fight with Li Shiming was somewhat suppressed by Li Shiming, it was not to an overwhelmingly large extent.
As he thought this, he was about to retort, but then he felt a piercing pain in his brain, his spirit taking a heavy blow.
Li Shiming’s sword light instantly reached him, and with one thrust, pierced through his heart.
Until his death, Du Bingyan could not react. For a Qi Refining cultivator who had not mastered Spiritual Thought, possessing a spiritual attack method was a blow of a different magnitude entirely, something the Qi Refining cultivators could not even detect.
Li Shiming used the ‘Ice Heart Jade Thought Technique’ to transform into a Spiritual Jade Sword, which pierced into Du Bingyan’s brain and destroyed his spirit.
Actually, Li Shiming did not even need to strike with his sword again; the damage to the spirit was already fatal for Du Bingyan.
After killing Du Bingyan, Li Shiming’s Spiritual Thought swept over Du Bingyan’s body and collected both his corpse and magical artifacts.
Afterward, Li Shiming’s flying speed increased, his wings granting him more agile flight. Although he might not have much of an advantage in speed compared to a talented cultivator like Du Bingyan, it was far superior to that of five relatively ordinary Qi Refining cultivators.
Before the five Qi Refining cultivators could get close to the center of the battle, he used his increased speed to counterattack one of them.
The sword light flashed, and the mid-grade defense magic tool of one Qi Refining Cultivator was directly breached, the Broken Jade Sword almost effortlessly thrust through his throat.
His figure moved again toward the nearest Qi Refining cultivator. The sword light flashed again, and another Qi Refining cultivator was slain.
“Run quickly!” Upon seeing Du Bingyan slain by Li Shiming, the fighting spirit of the five Qi Refining cultivators diminished tremendously, and with Li Shiming killing two people in quick succession, the remaining three had no intention of continuing the fight.
Unfortunately for them, with Li Shiming’s speed advantage, there was no way he would let them escape.
