1705 Duplicated Embodimen

"Han Xin, what are you trying to do?!" Han Xue Nai shouted as her expression changed dramatically when she saw Han Xin effortlessly killing Qing Nu who was protecting her.

"What am I trying to do?" Han Xin sneered. "Han Xue Nai, I've always treated you well in the past. I didn't think you'll be so ungrateful… All I ask is that you tell me the origin of the person who murdered my grandson, but you keep evading my question! I've finally lost my patience. This is your final chance. Tell me where the person came from. Otherwise, you can die along with Qing Nu!" Han Xin said as killing intent gleamed in his eyes when he looked at Han Xue Nai.

"Qing Nu! Qing Nu!" Han Xue Nai squatted next to Qing Nu's body, her eyes were completely red as she sobbed.

Qing Nu had accompanied her since she was young. She had long regarded Qing Nu as family. However, Qing Nu had died protecting her today!

Han Xue Nai's heart was filled with guilt.

The sneer on Han Xin's face deepened when he saw Han Xue Nai ignoring him. "Don't think you'll be able to stall for time by ignoring me… Just so you know, whether it's your father or your Uncle Mu, both of them are in a discussion with my men about the Rising Sky Mansion not coming to pick you up for your marriage. They won't be able to come in time to save you!" Han Xin said as his voice turned colder and colder, making the listener feel as though they had fallen into a thaw hole.

"Qing Nu…" Han Xue Nai was distracted looking at Qing Nu's body.

Subconsciously, the words her mysterious master had once said to her began to ring in her ears. "Xue Nai, those from our Red Dust Progeny must train ourselves in this mundane world. We can only completely understand the profundity of the Red Dust Progeny's cultivation method when we have experienced laughter and tears, and life and death in the mundane world!"

Following that, the words her master said before leaving also rang in her ears. "If you encounter the dragon clan, you only have to send some True Energy into it… As for the subsequent events, you have nothing to worry about."

Previously, her master was worried she would encounter the dragon clan when she returned to the Cloud Continent so she had given her a small nimble sword.

The last time she went to Cloud Continent, she did not encounter the dragon clan, therefore she did not use the small sword at all. As time passed, she had also forgotten all about it.

In regards to her master, even Han Xue Nai herself did not know of her origins.

The only thing she knew was that her master would address herself as the Red Dust Progeny's heir and that her master had passed the Red Dust Progeny's mental cultivation method to her.

In the beginning, her master did not allow her to cultivate the Red Dust Progeny's mental cultivation method, saying it was not the time. On the day her master left, she finally allowed her to cultivate the Red Dust Progeny's mental cultivation method.

The Red Dust Progeny's mental cultivation method was difficult to understand, causing her not to be able to grasp it since she had only been cultivating it for a short period of time.

Suddenly, the small nimble sword appeared in Han Xue Nai's hands.

"Hm?" Han Xue Nai's movement was slight, but it was still discovered by Han Xin. No matter what, Han Xin was still an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse.

"What? Do you really want to fight me with this sword that's only a little longer than a finger?" Han Xin said mockingly.

At this moment, Han Xue Nai urged the True Energy in her body to enter the small nimble sword in her hands. All of a sudden, the small nimble sword that was infused her True Energy shattered instantly into a million pieces.

However, that was not the most surprising nor important part. At the moment the small nimble sword shattered, a silhouette suddenly appeared next to Han Xue Nai.

The silhouette was human-like. Upon closer inspection, one could see it was a woman. To be more precise, it was a beautiful woman.

"Xue Nai." As soon as the beautiful woman appeared, she looked at Han Xue Nai with a faint smile. When she saw Qing Nu's body lying on the ground, she frowned slightly. It was obvious she knew Qing Nu as well.

"Ma-Master…?" From the moment Han Xue Nai saw the silhouette of the beautiful woman, she had instantly recognized it as her master. She was in a daze and only regained her senses when the beautiful woman called out to her. She looked at the beautiful woman before her in shock.

At this moment, Han Xue Nai was filled with confusion.

The technique of astral projection could only be achieved by Martial and Dao Cultivators at the peak of the Innate Stage, it was called the Innate Illusory.

The Innate Illusory could only be used to confuse others, there were no other uses to it.

However, the Innate Illusory technique was generally limited by distance.

Currently, her master was at an unknown place, but it was undeniable that she was right in front of her. Moreover, she had appeared through that small nimble sword.

"I know you have a lot of questions in your heart, but my Duplicated Embodiment has a time limit… Let me kill him first before explaining it to you." The beautiful woman nodded at Han Xue Nai before she turned to look at Han Xin.

Although she was unaware of what had transpired earlier, she had seen the killing intent in Han Xin's eyes. She knew Han Xin intended to kill her disciple. Her gaze turned fierce immediately.

There were very few disciples in the Seven Absolute Sect, therefore the entire sect was extremely protective of their own. She was no exception to this.

"Duplicated Embodiment?" Han Xin was shocked the moment he saw the small nimble sword shattering in Han Xue Nai's hand before a silhouette appeared.

Innate Illusory was exclusive to Martial and Dao Cultivators at the peak of the Innate Stage. However, once one had broken through to the Mortal Shedding Stage and the power in one's body transformed, they would not be able to use it anymore. That was why he knew it was not the Innate Illusory.

When he heard the beautiful woman said it was the Duplicated Embodiment, Han Xin felt it sounded familiar before he finally remembered.

Dao Cultivators whose cultivation base surpassed the Eminent Saint Stage would obtain an ability called the Duplicated Embodiment.

This ability would not help much in actual fights. Its biggest use was to seal it in a specially made protective talisman, and when others infused power into it, it would release the Duplicated Embodiment inside.

Those Dao Cultivators at that level would generally seal a Duplicated Embodiment of themselves into a protective talisman and give it to their disciples or descendants as a protective measure in case of emergencies.

At this moment, Han Xin's expressions changed dramatically when he stared at the silhouette of the beautiful woman in front of him in horror, "You… You're a Dao Cultivator beyond the Eminent Saint Stage?"

He did not expect Han Xue Nai to have a master like that!

Oh, Lord!

Was it not simple for a Dao Cultivator beyond the Eminent Saint Stage to kill him?

"You're quite knowledgeable since you know about the Duplicated Embodiment." The beautiful woman sneered.

Suddenly, as though Han Xin had recalled something, his expression gradually relaxed as he said fiercely, "Humph! So what if you're a Dao Cultivator beyond the Eminent Saint Stage? Since you left the Duplicated Embodiment for Han Xue Nai, I think it's impossible for you to rush back in time to save Han Xue Nai... Are you trying to stop me, Han Xin, with a mere Duplicated Embodiment?" He sneered as he spoke.

The Duplicated Embodiment of a Dao Cultivator beyond the Eminent Saint Stage was useless in actual battle was because it was too weak.

The strength of a Dao Cultivator's Duplicated Embodiment would usually be two or three stages lower than his or her cultivation base.

For instance, a Dao Cultivator above the Eminent Saint Stage would be a Divine Saint Stage Dao Cultivator so his Duplicated Embodiment would be at most at the Refined Saint Stage. If they were weaker, it might only be at the Pristine Saint Stage.

Only Dao Cultivators above the Exemplary Saint Stage would have Duplicated Embodiments with the strength of an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse.

Han Xin was a Mastery Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, and unless it was a powerful Dao Cultivator at the Quintessential Saint Stage, they would not be able to threaten him with their Duplicated Embodiment.

There was no Quintessential Saint Stage Dao Cultivators in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Even the strongest person in those quasi third-rate forces that were the strongest in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was merely an Exemplary Saint Stage powerhouse.

Above the Eminent Saint Stage was the Divine Saint Stage, and above the Divine Saint Stage was the Exemplary Saint Stage. Above the Exemplary Saint Stage was the Quintessential Saint Stage.

Powerhouses at the Quintessential Saint Stage only existed in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, there was none in the Lower Province. At least, Han Xin had never heard of any Quintessential Saint Stage powerhouses in the Lower Province.

"You're just like a frog at the bottom of a well!" The woman smiled coldly when she heard the disdain in Han Xin's voice.

Following that, no movement could be seen but the space around Han Xin distorted as though he was being suppressed. At that time, Han Xin who was sneering in disdain suddenly widened his eyes as a desperate expression appeared on his face.

Currently, Han Xin realized he could not move at all. The space surrounding him seemed to have locked him in place. He could not even mobilize his True Origin.

At this moment, Han Xin finally discovered how terrifying the beautiful woman in front of him was. He could not even fight against a mere Duplicated Embodiment.

"My lady, spare my life! Spare my life, my lady!" At that moment between life and death, Han Xin's pride disappeared as he began to panic.

As a Mastery Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, only he alone knew how many hardships he had to endure to make it here. At that moment in between life and death, his life flashed before his eyes. He was terrified. Everything would be gone if he died. His cultivation base and his consciousness would be gone.

At this moment, he had thrown all his pride away. There was only one thought in his mind and it was to survive.

Unfortunately, things were no longer under his control.

"Humph!" The beautiful woman snorted as she suddenly clenched her slender hands into fists.

At this moment, the space around Han Xin trembled violently as though a huge stone had been dropped into a pond of still water. As the ripples in the air spread out, the body of Han Xin who was in the center of it all twisted before it was broken into pieces. It eventually faded into nothing.

Apart from one Spatial Ring, nothing was left behind.

Han Xue Nai who witnessed this could not help but gasp! When she looked at the beautiful woman again, her master seemed a little unfamiliar to her.
