When Leng Shiqi rushed over, he used the system space to change his blade into a sword. His entire body entered a strange state in an instant.
His body moved and turned into twelve phantoms. Each of the phantoms had a different movement.
Some charged forward, some attacked from the side, some jumped high, some slid on the ground, some stabbed out with invisible sword qi, and some stabbed out with light blue sword qi.
What was even more strange was that although these illusions looked slow, they all stabbed towards Qu Xin Ran in the blink of an eye!
Chaotic Blossoms Dazzling Eyes!
This was a move that Leng Shiqi had used with his cultivation at the fifth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm. It was a combination of the Ethereal Steps, the Impacting Meridian Sword Energy, and the Cold Frost Sword Energy — Dazzling Flowers!
As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. Qu Xin Ran was at a loss of what to do in the face of twelve phantoms. He couldn't tell which one was Leng Shiqi's real body, or rather, all of them were real bodies!
The smile on his face disappeared and turned into shock. He couldn't believe that such an exquisite spirit technique was mastered by a mere Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator.
However, he didn't have the time to think about it. He could only clench his teeth and send out four golden palms.
Wherever the palms passed, the illusions and sword qi were scattered. However, there were still four illusions that came to his side!
At this critical moment, Qu Xin Ran lowered his body and dodged the sword. His body suddenly spun and a faint golden light surrounded him in an attempt to block the remaining three illusions.
Unfortunately, Leng Shiqi's three phantoms were extremely agile, and with the help of Byakugan, they quickly found Qu Xin Ran's weakness. Three streaks of Sword Qi pierced Qu Xin Ran's ribs, waist, and legs respectively.
The sword qi tore open three bloody wounds. Two of the Channel Opening Sword Qi and one of the Frost Sword Qi entered his body and blocked his meridians and froze his flesh!
Qu Xin Ran was extremely shocked. He immediately used his spirit energy to disperse the sword qi. However, the three sword qi were like maggots that were difficult to get rid of in a short period of time.
The key was that he didn't have that much time to get rid of the sword qi because Leng Shiqi turned around and sent out another sword strike, aiming straight for Qu Xin Ran's throat.
At this time, Qu Xin Ran could only suppress the three sword qi to prevent them from spreading. Then he stomped his feet on the ground and used the force to quickly retreat.
Leng Shiqi's sword pierced through the air. He flicked his wrist and three frost sword qi flew out.
Soon after, he pointed his spear, aiming at Qu Xin Ran's throat. With a low roar, his entire body surged with an unparalleled domineering aura. Then, he straightened his spear and charged over like a sharp sword!
Halfway through, the tip of the spear flashed and a huge cross-shaped light suddenly shot out.
At this time, Qu Xinran had just smashed the three frosty Sword Qis and saw Leng Shiqi's fierce move.
It was too late for him to dodge. At this moment, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes. But he immediately stuck his tongue out and swallowed a small pill hidden in his teeth.
After swallowing the pill, Qu Xin Ran's aura suddenly skyrocketed. The robe on his upper body flew off, and a crystal clear meridian could be vaguely seen on his right arm.
That was the Spiritual Vein!
At this moment, Qu Xinran had actually used the power of the pill to forcefully open half of his Spirit Meridian. However, he was still not in the Spirit Meridian Realm. At most, he was half a step into the Spirit Meridian Realm.
Originally, as long as Qu Xinran was given one or two more years, he could naturally break through, but now that he was facing a life and death crisis, he had no choice but to forcibly increase his strength.
However, this was equivalent to destroying his own future. For someone like him, who used external items to forcefully open a Spirit Vein, even after breaking through to the Spirit Vein Stage, it would be difficult for him to progress. He would probably die of old age at this stage!
Thinking of this, Qu Xin Ran's face was filled with hatred and madness. Originally, he had come to Upper Yang City to give himself a chance to show off.
According to his original plan, as long as he pacified the city guards and dealt with the Three Blades Gang, he could go into seclusion to cultivate.
As long as he broke through to the Spirit Pulse Realm, Upper Yang City would be in his hands!
After that, he would be able to conspire for another major event!
However, his plans had been completely disrupted today, and he had even lost his cultivation future!
He was filled with hatred. He wanted to kill Leng Shiqi!
Qu Xinran pushed out his right palm, and a golden palm shadow that was three times larger than before shot out, meeting Leng Shiqi's Formation Breaking Cross Spear.
The cross light at the tip of the spear collided with the golden palm shadow, and an explosion occurred, causing the entire barrier to tremble slightly.
The white light and the golden palm shadow reflected off each other, and in the end, both gradually dissipated. Neither could do anything to the other, but Leng Shiqi's three-section spear had a few more cracks!
At the same time, his expression was not good. He had used two killing moves, Chaotic Blossom Gradually Mesmerizing Eyes and Formation Breaking Cross Spear, but they were still unable to do anything to Qu Xinran.
"Is this the strength of an orthodox Spirit Cultivator, a half-step Spirit Vein Stage Spirit Cultivator?"
However, Leng Shiqi immediately sensed that half of the Spirit Vein on Qu Xinran's right arm had dimmed a lot. It was obvious that the palm strike had consumed a lot of his energy.
Just as Leng Shiqi was about to attack again, Qu Xinran made a move first!
A golden light flashed behind him, and he actually passed through the golden ripples and instantly appeared beside Leng Shiqi, sending out another fierce palm strike!
At this moment, Leng Shiqi's hair stood on end. He did not expect Qu Xinran's speed to be so fast!
Leng Shiqi immediately moved his spirit energy, and the patterns on his back and abdomen suddenly lit up. Then, a gold and silver light flashed, and his body suddenly expanded. A layer of thin silver armor covered his body. He had activated two beast origin battle patterns at this moment!
His aura exploded.
However, Qu Xinran's golden palm shadow had already arrived with boundless strength!
Facing this abnormally ferocious palm strike, the force of the palm pierced his face, causing him to feel a faint pain. At this moment, he was instead extremely calm. Suddenly, a flash of understanding appeared in his mind, and he unexpectedly followed up with a palm strike.
When the palm struck out, it instantly turned into six palm shadows, and within the palm shadows, there was a bit of fire. Then, the six palm shadows suddenly merged into one!
Leng Shiqi's palm also ignited a faint flame and blasted against the golden palm shadow!
"Boom boom boom!!"
The two palms collided, and suddenly a violent force was set off. With the two of them as the center, the tiles and furniture in the entire room were all blasted out and smashed into the barrier. There was no place in the entire room that was intact!
Leng Shiqi's body was blasted out and slammed into the barrier. The thin armor on his right arm was completely broken, and traces of blood seeped out. His arm was a little twisted, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. Obviously, he was seriously injured.
As for Qu Xinran, he was not in a good state either. The spirit vein on his arm had disappeared, and his entire arm was charred black as if it had been burned.
And if one could see inside his arm, they would be even more surprised to find that the meridians, bones, and flesh had already been corroded to a terrible state!
This was the Six Yang Poison Fire Palm that Leng Shiqi had fused with the Six Yang Palm and the Poison Fire Palm at the critical moment!
