Chapter 444: Severing Head from Body
Strange things happen every year, but this year there are especially many.
It should be said that since meeting Su Hao and helping him, Feng Qianye has felt that strange things have increased.
However, she couldn’t pinpoint what was strange.
She just felt that everywhere emitted an unsettling atmosphere.
Originally, Feng Qianye was going to take action directly to give Su Hao a good beating, but after Su Hao asked this strange question, for some reason, she hesitated for a moment.
In that moment, Feng Qianye’s mind raced, and she immediately made a decision, expressionless, saying, “Feng Wei, what do you mean by this? I just wanted to discuss with you how to break through the Unity Stage! What, are you not interested?”
As she spoke, the spiritual power within Feng Qianye’s body shifted, and she reached out to touch Su Hao.
“Wind Spirit Seal!”
A blue-red spiritual power burst from Feng Qianye’s hand, and the air around Su Hao gradually condensed into amber, pressing towards him, making it difficult for him to move.
Su Hao tried, but found that this spell was extremely powerful, even with his immense strength, he couldn’t move a muscle.
Feng Qianye’s expression was indifferent, looking at Su Hao as if looking at a dead person. In the blink of an eye, she formed a seal in her hand and pointed it towards Su Hao.
“Green Edge Slash!”
Two green streams of light spiraled and slashed towards Su Hao’s neck.
“Done!” It wasn’t until this moment that Feng Qianye’s expression relaxed.
Her technique, “Green Edge Slash,” was extremely sharp. Once entangled, even the hardest thing could be cut into two, not to mention Su Hao’s seemingly fragile neck.
In her view, Su Hao’s head would soon roll down from the side, and she would completely possess this huge Nascent Soul spiritual power, then, break through the Unity Stage!
There was no blood spraying out, which was normal! Considering how rapid her technique was, the blood didn’t have time to react, it’s just that it wasn’t noticed, no need to be alarmed.
As for the self-detonation ability of the Nascent Soul state? She was confident that Su Hao wouldn’t!
Self-detonation is also a kind of technique, not every Nascent Soul state cultivator can do it!
Like Su Hao who just broke through the Nascent Soul state and hasn’t had time to cultivate techniques, he couldn’t possibly have this technique.
This is also why Nascent Soul state cultivators breaking through the Unity state prefer to collect spiritual power from those who have just broken through the Nascent Soul state.
It’s not easy to kill an old Nascent Soul state cultivator, and it might end up involving oneself. Moreover, most old Nascent Soul state cultivators have practiced self-detonation techniques to prevent themselves from becoming targets of others’ hunts.
Feng Qianye is also exceptionally cautious. While her expression relaxed, her actions on her hands didn’t slow down at all. She pinched another seal, cast another spell, and pointed her finger at Su Hao’s head.
Collecting spiritual power doesn’t require the head, so she might as well explode Su Hao’s head altogether and eliminate all hidden dangers!
Su Hao smiled and blinked, “Senior, what are you doing?”
Feng Qianye didn’t expect that even though Su Hao’s neck was broken, he could still speak, feeling unusually good, she replied, “You’ll know soon enough!”
Then Feng Qianye pointed into the void.
“What?”
Feng Qianye’s heart shook as the Su Hao she had bound suddenly disappeared from before her eyes, and her finger passed through empty space.
She didn’t understand what had happened, only knowing that things seemed to be out of control, and the head that was supposed to explode as planned didn’t develop as expected.
The next moment, Feng Qianye’s spiritual sense found Su Hao’s location: “Behind!”
Feng Qianye didn’t immediately turn around, but at the fastest speed, she activated various defensive spells on her body, instantly various colored lights flashed, enveloping Feng Qianye layer by layer.
After ensuring her own safety, Feng Qianye finally reached out and flicked backwards, a streak of green light shot out, directly stabbing towards Su Hao’s face, while her other hand cast a spell, causing the formation in the cave to rise.
For a moment, the inside and outside of the cave were enveloped layer by layer. With the formation in place, the movements here would not be known to the outside world, allowing bold actions.
Only at this moment did Feng Qianye turn back to look at Su Hao.
But she saw the short-haired boy smiling at her, couldn’t help but mutter in her heart: “Even in such a situation, he can still laugh… The ‘Green Edge Slash’ just went through his neck without doubt, why does he look perfectly fine? And how did he break free from my ‘Wind Spirit Seal’ and suddenly disappear in front of me? This kid is strange!”
Although this was the case, Feng Qianye never thought she would lose. She reached out and pinched a seal, a ribbon with a red glow flew out, about to bind Su Hao in place again.
But once again seeing Su Hao disappear from her sight, suddenly appearing behind her. Feng Qianye abruptly turned her head, only to see the gorgeously shaped knife-like artifact poking towards her.
What horrified her was that her extremely strong defensive shield, under the blade emitting a blue light, shattered layer by layer.
“Boom boom~”
Almost at the moment Feng Qianye completed her turn, all the shields on her body were shattered!
Instead of stabbing a hole in her chest as expected, the long knife, instead of piercing straight, made a diagonal slash.
“Puff~”
She only felt a coolness in her arm, and her left arm fell off and flew away.
Feng Qianye was horrified, but forced herself to stay calm. In the instant the blade cut through her left arm, she had already completed the seal, about to activate the escape technique to withdraw from the fight.
But unexpectedly, Su Hao’s other hand lifted slightly faster than hers.
“Level Three – Lightning!”
“Ka-boom~”
A dazzling blue light burst from Su Hao’s hand, instantly connecting with Feng Qianye’s body, freezing all her actions and expressions.
In the moment before being shocked, a word popped into her mind: “Thunder technique!”
After Feng Qianye froze, Su Hao’s knife swiftly chopped off her other hand.
Until all movement stopped, both arms almost simultaneously fell to the ground.
The scent of flesh emanating from Feng Qianye also spread and permeated the air. Most of her flesh had been seared by the electric shock. Fortunately, although the vitality of Nascent Soul state cultivators was not as strong as that of Unity Realm, the massive spiritual power system in their bodies still granted them high resistance to thunder and fire attacks.
After a while, Feng Qianye regained her composure, and her body gradually regained control.
“What… am I doing?”
When the question arose, the answer also came to her. Feng Qianye looked at Su Hao in horror, screaming in her mind, “Didn’t you say you’ve only learned three basic spells? What’s with this thunder and lightning technique?”
She immediately wanted to flee. Even without hands, she could still activate spells.
First, a shield lit up around her. For cultivators like her, without a shield, there was no sense of security.
Then, a blue-red light burst forth, and the escape technique was successfully activated.
“I can run!” Feng Qianye rejoiced inwardly. As long as the escape technique was successful, with her speed, this kid definitely couldn’t catch up.
Then she flashed to retreat, but unexpectedly collided with the suddenly appearing blade. The shield on her body shattered once again with a “boom”!
“Level Two – Lightning!”
“Ka-boom~”
A finer blue light connected to Feng Qianye’s body than before, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. The scent of flesh on her body became even stronger.
When Feng Qianye regained consciousness again, Su Hao said indifferently, “Elder Qianye, what are you trying to do? Can you explain?”
Feng Qianye’s eyes were full of resentment. At this moment, the escape technique on her body had not yet dissipated, and she believed she still had a chance to escape. With a thought, a strand of spiritual power infiltrated underground.
The formation in the cave immediately activated, and the entire cave trembled slightly.
A large amount of light radiated from all sides, converging on Su Hao.
The immense pressure pinned Su Hao down, rendering him unable to move, it was another binding formation!
“Swish~”
Immediately, several sword qi shot out from the side, piercing through Su Hao’s body in various places.
Hope flickered once again in Feng Qianye’s eyes, believing that her attack had taken effect.
“Time to leave!” She pushed off with her legs, flipping up, about to fly away.
“Level Two – Lightning!”
“Ka-boom~”
Feng Qianye flipped back to the ground again.
When she regained consciousness, she looked at Su Hao, who was smiling, and for a moment, she was speechless.
Su Hao asked again, “Elder Qianye, now, can you tell me why you want to kill me? This is your last chance. If you resist recklessly again, my patience will be exhausted. I can always ask someone else, understand?”
Feng Qianye’s eyes were filled with indifference. She sat up, smiling, “Feng Wei, huh? I underestimated you! Then, let me tell you. Listen carefully!”
Su Hao listened intently.
Feng Qianye slowly opened her mouth.
“Swish~”
A beam of light shot out from Feng Qianye’s mouth, extremely fast. The moment it appeared, it pierced through Su Hao’s head.
Su Hao’s face suddenly turned cold.
At this moment, Feng Qianye finally saw clearly. Her “Green Edge Needle” did pierce Su Hao’s head, but Su Hao was completely unaffected!
Feng Qianye was suddenly shocked, “How is this possible! Could it be that I fell for some kind of spiritual deception technique? Is Feng Wei not here?”
However, she had no chance to probe further.
Su Hao reached out, and a long knife automatically fell into his hand, then he swung it flatly.
A flash of green light passed over Feng Qianye’s neck, and her head separated from her body.
