Chapter 542: Truth of the Battle

Translator: CKtalon  Editor: - -

Shi Xiaobai had refrained from using his sword not because he was hiding his inadequacies. It was because Lucifer's Sword was extremely draining on psionic power. It was not to be recklessly used. The black and white swords had just been destroyed, so he was temporarily without a usable sword. Although psionic construction allowed him to produce a psionic sword, the product would be extremely weak. It could not withstand the power of his Sword Truth. The psionic sword would only be more prone to shattering when Sword Intent surged through it.

 

In addition, Shi Xiaobai wanted to try out Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms; therefore, he had not used any of his sword techniques till it was necessary.

 

The time came when Shi Xiaobai could no longer tolerate it with the birdman dancing high in the sky.

 

With a flip of his hand to summon Lucifer's Sword, he waved the sword to produce a slash at the sky. The sword beam was keen like the spreading of the wings of a Kun Peng. It swept up a storm of formidable magnitude.

 

Although the Kun Peng Sword of Wind produced by Lucifer's Sword drained ten percent of Shi Xiaobai's psionic power, the power was augmented and much stronger than usual.

 

Eventide Fifth Wolf failed to dodge and could only conjure his psionic barrier to forcefully defend. However, the sharpness of the sword beam was something even a barrier at the Psionic Might Realm could not fully defend against. With a cracking sound constantly resounding, a rift began tearing through the psionic barrier.

 

Eventide Fifth Wolf retreated as he tried resisting. It was not easy for him to escape the sword beams that inundated the sky. His private parts were lucky to be preserved but his clothes were left tattered by the sword beams. Thin and dense sword scars were left on his limbs, as red blood spewed out. He looked extremely miserable and had suffered non-trivial physical damage.

 

Eventide Fifth Wolf immediately escaped into the distance while screaming in pain. How would he dare to stay behind any longer?

 

Eventide Great Wolf and company drew a gasp as they could not believe the scene that had unfolded in front of their eyes.

 

Shi Xiaobai was still hiding a trick up his sleeves? His sword techniques were in no way weaker than his palm techniques!

 

Heavens, not only was this boy extremely strong and possessed extremely high defense, his speed was also surprisingly fast. Furthermore, he was adept at physical brawling and also proficient at using swords for long-range attacks. It was like he had no weakness at all and was completely invulnerable.

 

How could a mere person at the Psionic Mortal Realm be so strong? This didn't even make sense! It was in complete contrary to the balance of the world!

 

Eventide Great Wolf's eyes seemed to crack from the numerous blood vessels being engorged with fiery blood. He had believed that teaching a lesson to a boy at the Psionic Mortal Realm would be a simple and easily accomplished mission. However, he never expected the boy to be a humanoid monster. He was obviously at the Psionic Mortal Realm and was not at the Psionic Soul or Psionic Might Realm, much less Psionic Domain Realm. Yet, the pressure he gave them was greater than an expert at the Psionic Domain Realm. Neither his palm nor his sword strikes could be received and his flesh could not be pierced through. Even his crown jewels were as hard as metal. How were they to fucking fight him?

 

"Hold your ground. Continue the restraining and battle of attrition. He's merely at the Psionic Mortal Realm so how much psionic power can he have? Enervate him of all his psionic power and let's see if he can continue fighting!"

 

Although Eventide Great Wolf had trouble finding a strategy to deal with Shi Xiaobai, it was his responsibility as a leader to maintain the hearts of his men. Therefore, he immediately used an old-school battle strategy.

 

If a head-on clash and forceful attack didn't work, what were they to do?

 

Drag it out! Drag it till he was out of energy!

 

It had to be said that such a strategy was shameless but it was indeed effective.

 

Eventide Second and Third Wolf collected themselves once again as they stood their formations once again.

 

Although Eventide Fifth Wolf was injured, he had only suffered physical injuries. A tiny bit of rest allowed him to dedicate himself back into the battle. They were still in a six against one situation. Furthermore, not much of their psionic power had been drained. No one was severely injured either. After the past few moves, neither side had managed to overpower the other. At least Eventide Second Wolf's Wind Spear and Eventide Third Wolf's Lightning Tribulation Saber were not attacks Shi Xiaobai could withstand in a head-on clash. If they dragged it out, victory was definitely theirs!

 

When Eventide Great Wolf and company came to this realization, they immediately turned increasingly patient. Since 'inviting him to entrap himself' and 'closing the door to beat him' didn't work, they could only encircle him while attacking and retreating in a mixture of truth mingled with falsehood at the same time. It would be a dreadful and laughable state of not pouncing over despite having one's pants off.

 

Mu Lengxi gritted her teeth as she watched this. She yearned to transform into a 'flamer' that could mock them ruthlessly.

 

However, Shi Xiaobai did not laugh. He appeared calm but his inner thoughts were heavy.

 

On the surface, he had seemed to tie with six Psionic Might Realm warriors and even seemed to be repressing them alone. But in fact, things were not that simple. No matter how inept Eventide Great Wolf and company were, they were at the Psionic Might Realm. They were two realms above Shi Xiaobai, so how easy was it handling them?

 

In fact, in every exchange and parrying of moves, Shi Xiaobai had expended psionic power that was several times his usual amount. He had high physical toughness but there was no way for him to be left unscathed when withstanding the stab of a spear powered by the Psionic Might Realm with his bare hands. This formidable defense was partly due to his tough skin and flesh but the augmentation from Psionic Hardening could not be discounted.

 

Although "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms" was indeed a profound and powerful technique, it did not solely rely on itself to send Eventide Great Wolf and company retreating. In fact, every strike produced by Shi Xiaobai had expended a great deal of his psionic power. He had enhanced the strength of the strike to its limits.

 

Both offense and defense drained a large amount of psionic power and adding the cost of using the previous sword strike, more than half of Shi Xiaobai's psionic power had been unknowingly drained in less ten minutes!

 

Eventide Great Wolf's shameless battle strategy had chanced upon Shi Xiaobai's weakness. Against six Psionic Might Realm warriors, Shi Xiaobai was not afraid of a head-on clash or forceful attacks but, he truly could not allow it to drag out!

 

In the battle before this, Shi Xiaobai had always been searching for an opportunity to break the impasse. Every strike and move he did appeared like a calm response but it contained intense killing intent. Every strike was a lethal move that sought a chance to severely injure his opponent.

 

However, Eventide Great Wolf and company lived up to their reputations after all. Be it their defense, retreating or acts of reinforcement, they had done them in an excellent manner. It prevented Shi Xiaobai from finding a breakthrough point to produce a crack in their strategy.

 

From Eventide Great Wolf and company's point of view, Shi Xiaobai was in no way a boy only at the Psionic Mortal Realm. Instead, he was like an Astral Calamity Beast at the Psionic Domain Realm. He was adept at both offense and defense. His speed was exceedingly fast and possessed no flaws. They could not forcefully attack and were rendered helpless against him. They could only drag it out in the hopes for him to be completely enervated.

 

But from Shi Xiaobai's point of view, it was a completely different matter. He indeed possessed the ability to fight one against many. He even had the strength to simultaneously face six Psionic Might Realm warriors. However, it was quite a tough fight for him. He relied on draining large amounts of his psionic power to barely be able to create a tied impasse. After all, his cultivation realm was still too low. The difference in realms was mainly reflected in the quality of the psionic power. For example, the spending of a fixed amount of psionic power would produce a power rating of 1 at the Psionic Mortal Realm. But for the Psionic Might Realm, it could very well be 10. This resulted in very great differences.

 

This battle for Shi Xiaobai was a tough battle that needed him to fight someone stronger than he was while also being outnumbered by them. The pressure he experienced was completely different from the relaxed expression he portrayed.

 

Now, more than half his psionic power had been drained. He could not drag it out any longer!

 

It seemed like that move was the only resort!

 

Shi Xiaobai took a deep breath as he looked at Eventide Great Wolf, who had steeled his heart to fight a long drawn out battle. A sneer suffused his lips.

 

Since all of you want to drag it out, This King will go for broke and bet it all on this!

 

Shi Xiaobai suddenly took a step forward and produced a deep bellow that resembled the low growl of a beast.

 

Eventide Great Wolf and company hurriedly took on a defensive pose.

 

They turned extremely alert and were ready to defend against Shi Xiaobai's exceedingly fast sudden attacks.

 

But after a few seconds, Shi Xiaobai did not move but a strange matter happened.

 

Eventide Great Wolf and company looked at each other.

 

Why did Shi Xiaobai suddenly turn green?
