Chapter 128: Learning Through Observation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This yin fiend’s endless moves left Li Ming dumbfounded, and he could not help but complain inwardly. Although he did not know what was going on with this vin fiend, he decided to strike first.

One more time, Seven Vortexes!

The seven sword energies swirled around the yin fiend. The seven vortexes immediately grew larger, and the rapidly spinning blades brought with them ear-piercing sounds that made one’s hair stand on end.

The yin fiend, which had been enveloped by the seven vortexes, continued to shrink. It had already shrunk to the size of a basket. The yin qi around it had already become so dark that it was like flowing ink.

Li Ming gritted his teeth, and the spiritual energy in his body began to flow backward!

“Break!” he shouted.

The seven giant vortexes exploded at almost the same time, turning into fragments that flew everywhere!

The location where the yin fiend had been took the most damage. In an instant, hundreds of sword lights shot out and struck the yin fiend.

Chi, chi, chi!

Ripples appeared on its pitch-black body.

A trace of blood flowed out of Li Ming’s mouth. He had just forcefully reversed the flow of his spiritual energy and caused damage to his meridians. However, his eyes lit up. This was the strongest seven vortexes he had ever unleashed!

He understood that he could sometimes further increase the might of his sword moves.

The second [Seven Vortexes] had caused quite a bit of damage to the yin fiend. It had become incredibly stable. Its body, which had compressed again and again, was now like a thick puddle of ink. It floated in the air and looked strangely solid.

It was only in the midst of the sword light that filled the air that its pitch-black body began to show signs of instability. Occasionally, drops of pitch-black aura would seep out of its body. However, before it landed, the yin qi would have already dissipated.

The attack that Li Ming just unleashed had completely infuriated the yin fiend!

Li Ming could clearly feel that its anger emanating from its divine sense!

At this moment, a pitch-black yin qi separated from the yin fiend’s body. To Li Ming’s surprise, the yin qi did not dissipate after leaving its body.

Suddenly, Li Ming’s heart skipped a beat!

He could feel that a trace of the yin fiend’s divine sense had actually burrowed into the yin qi!

Yin Thorn!

Thinking about the power of the yin thorns earlier, and then thinking about the pitch-black yin qi in front of him, he knew how powerful it would be if such yin qi was used to perform Yin Thorn…

Li Ming quivered!

What should he do? Should he use a talisman? Or maybe the yin fire bead? The yin fire bead! Li Ming suddenly remembered. He had been thinking about how to use the yin qi in the yin bead to cast Yin Thorn. He had been troubled by the fact that the yin qi in the yin bead was too dense and difficult to control.

He stared at the small ball of dense yin qi floating in front of the yin fiend and carefully sensed the changes within it.

Li Ming suddenly had a feeling that the yin fiend in front of him was like an excellent teacher. It was teaching him step by step how to use yin qi and divine sense to condense a stronger Yin Thorn.

He inexplicably took out a yin bead, and like the yin fiend, he injected his divine sense into the yin bead bit by bit.

The tablet spirit, who had been watching the show from the side, was shocked. He looked at Li Ming in a daze.

What was he doing?

Although this was the first time he used his divine sense, his control over his divine sense far surpassed the yin fiend. He was not wasting much time at all.

His divine sense was stronger than the yin specter, and his control was also better. However, he had not known how to utilize these properties of his. But when he saw the actions of the yin fiend, he felt as if he had been suddenly enlightened.

A thread of his divine sense that was like a thin needle entered the yin bead.

However, he did not expect the yin qi in the yin bead to be so dense and his divine sense to be weak in comparison. He did not hesitate and quickly summoned several strands and had them merge into one. It was only then that he managed to have his divine sense bore into the yin bead!

When his divine sense entered the yin bead, he immediately felt a shocking change!

It was as if he had arrived in a hazy world. His entire body was surrounded by dense yin qi, cold and strange.

Li Ming was a little absent-minded. When he felt a solid touch from the bottom of his feet, he came back to his senses!

The sliver of divine sense that had entered the yin bead earlier was also emitted from his body. It had clashed with his own divine sense, which was why he suddenly fell in a trance.

It felt like a lot had happened, but in fact, it all took place in an instant.

A black Yin Thorn formed in front of the yin fiend. When the Yin Thorn took shape, Li Ming suddenly felt a strange, cold aura.

Fortunately, his Yin Thorn was also completed at the same time. It was strange that although the yin bead still looked like the same bead, it had turned from grayish-white to crystal clear without any impurities.

Although he was refining it step by step according to the yin fiend’s method, Li Ming still did not have the slightest confidence. He made a prompt decision and raised his hand to throw the crystal-clear pearl out.

The yin fiend launched its attack at the same time.

The pitch-black Yin Thorn shook, and a whimper suddenly sounded. It was like the cry of a baby, and a gust of cold wind suddenly blew!

Seeing the terrifying aura of his opponent, Li Ming lost even more confidence. He forced himself to calm down and held the water-drop sword in his right hand. He made up his mind that if the situation went awry, he would use the Heaven-Burning Water even if he had to suffer some injuries!

He had just reversed the flow of his spiritual energy and had already injured his meridians. If he used Heaven-Burning Water, his injuries would only be worse. But he had no other choice.

Only then did he realize that his greatest reliance was still the Heaven -Burning Water. Although the tablet spirit had described the yin fire bead as very powerful, he had never used it before. Moreover, when this yin fire bead was being refined, it had almost been scrapped. He was not sure if the power of this bead would be greatly reduced because of this.

He had already experienced the power of talisman weapons, but he needed some time to activate them. How could he use them at a critical moment?

He could not help but let out a bitter laugh. Although performing the [Heaven-Burning Water] was not too difficult, it was still limited by his cultivation level. If he was not careful, he would suffer a severe backlash.

He secretly decided that after he returned, he would start thinking about his life-saving measures.

After getting into position, Li Ming was completely focused on the black Yin Thorn.

The crystal clear bead drew an arc in the air, letting out nary a sound nor a wave of power.

On the other hand, the black Yin Thorn exuded a shocking aura. The surrounding yin qi seemed to be drawn toward it. The cold wind blew against Li Ming’s clothes, causing his heart to turn cold.

The whistling wind could make any person’s hair stand on end. Those with weak wills would not be able to resist at all.

The tablet spirit in the corner stared at the collision between the pearl and the yin fiend’s Yin Thorn with a dumbfounded expression..
