Chapter 432 - Controlling the Martial Hall

Chapter 432 - Controlling the Martial Hall

The two youths knew each other but were disdainful of working together. If news got out that they had to join hands against someone in the fourth level of the Heavenly Dipper Realm, they would be reduced to a laughingstock.

Liang Qiming's face was grim, and he was unable to refute the truth. Only he knew that the rebound force from Liu Wuxie's deflection had nearly caused him to lose control of his longsword.

This wasn't the power of someone at the fourth level of the Heavenly Dipper Realm; it was comparable to the pinnacle of the Heavenly Dipper Realm.

The second wave of attacks quickly followed after the first failed strike. Liang Qiming was an old disciple who came here constantly to push himself to find the path to the Heavenly Phase Realm.

He had been stuck in the ninth level of the Heavenly Dipper Realm for years and couldn't find the threshold to the Heavenly Phase Realm. The best way was to put himself in danger and keep pushing himself to seek that sliver of opportunity.

As Liu Wuxie fought, he activated the Ghost Eye to scan his surroundings. Having cultivated the Soul Forge Art, his divine sense had grown immensely stronger, and with the enhancement of the Ghost Eye, its power became even more extraordinary.

Liu Wuxie's vision could penetrate through the walls and reach the core. The core was built deep underground, and seeing through so many layers was exhausting for his divine sense. But he had gone all out to see who was trying to target him.

As his vision penetrated through the crystal walls, he entered a room with two elders forming seals to control the Martial Hall.

"I see...someone is trying to use the Martial Hall to kill me." Liu Wuxie retracted his divine sense after verifying. He had consumed half his soul energy in just one breath and had to multitask and fight with Liang Qiming.

Liang Qiming executed ten-odd attacks in a few breaths, and each attack was tricky to deal with. Even so, he couldn't break through Liu Wuxie's defenses, who could easily deal with him relying on the Nine Heavenly Crane Dance alone.

Liu Wuxie had become even more proficient with the Fatality Blade Art. Aside from the last form, he could perfectly execute the first six forms.

This shocked Liang Qiming, and a hint of solemnness flashed in his eyes as he fought. Even the youth by the side wore a solemn expression because he could tell Liang Qiming wasn't doing this on purpose, but Liu Wuxie was that strong.

The two elders in the central control system were also shocked. To be safe, they had specially sent two disciples to the ninth level but still couldn't do anything to Liu Wuxie.

"Whirlwind Slash!" Liang Qiming was enraged and resorted to his strongest attack, which ripped through the air and appeared before Liu Wuxie, forcing the latter to retreat.

"What a powerful sword technique!" Liu Wuxie didn't dare be careless because this sword's power was much stronger than Ma Shiyan's. Ne/w novel chapters are p/u/blished on no/vel(/bin(.)c/o/m

Liu Wuxie swung the Heretic Blade downward and pointed his right index finger at Liang Qiming, launching two simultaneous attacks. He knew that relying solely on the Fatality Blade Art would only force Liang Qiming to retreat.

The hell mode was activated, which meant only one side could survive with no path of retreat.

When their weapons clashed, a powerful shockwave erupted, causing a violent explosion that shook the surrounding walls. The Martial Hall's environment was real, and each instance of damage required repairs.

Every day, disciples would come to repair the damage and earn points, which was also a form of mission.

Liu Wuxie's points were earned by others, allowing points to circulate in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. Points were similar to currencies, which needed spending or would only remain as numbers.

The two were sent flying away, and the Frost Finger struck when Liang Qiming was in mid-air. Everything happened swiftly, and it was too late for Liang Qiming to react.

The three were baffled when they appeared, unaware of what was happening.

"Liu Wuxie? Why is he here?" one of them exclaimed because he was familiar with Liu Wuxie. He was also present when Hou Ye was killed.

"He's only in the fourth-level Heavenly Dipper Realm, so how did he come here? Did something go wrong in the Martial Hall?" The three didn't have any murderous intent directed at Liu Wuxie and looked around curiously.

"This is weird. There are three of us, while there's only one of him," the youth on the right exclaimed because they were on one side.

The three looked at each other before they finally felt something wasn't right.

"Liu Wuxie, do you know what's going on?" one of the youths asked, believing Liu Wuxie might know.

"Someone is controlling the Martial Hall, trying to use you three to get rid of me," Liu Wuxie said truthfully without hiding anything.

The faces of the three disciples changed. It was too shocking for someone to use the Martial Hall to get rid of another disciple, and this violated the sect's rules.

"What should we do? Should we kill him and leave here or find a way to seek help?" The other two youths looked at the one in the middle.

Among the three, the one in the middle was the strongest, with cultivation in the pinnacle Heavenly Dipper Realm, one step away from the Heavenly Phase Realm.

They had no personal feud with Liu Wuxie and did not need to fight to the death, becoming a tool for someone.

"There's no way out. The spiritual arrays are unbreakable, and more people will come in to kill us if we can't end the fight in an hour." Liu Wuxie spread his hands apart, looking helpless.

The spiritual arrays in the Martial Hall were too intricate for him to fully understand at his current level. Only by reaching the Astral River Realm would he be able to discern their complexities. His current cultivation was insufficient, and he felt powerless against the established laws of the Nascent Transformation Realm.

"Senior Brother Feng Lie, will that happen?" The youth on the right turned to look at the one in the middle.

"That's right!" Ma Lie wasn't willing to admit it, but he could only nod.

"How outrageous! I remember the Martial Hall is overseen by Elder Yi Xuan. He is known for impartiality. There has never been any mistakes in the Martial Hall under his management. What happened today?" The youth on the left swung his arm around angrily.

Liu Wuxie silently remembered Elder Yi Xuan's name to take revenge. He asked, "Senior Brother Feng Lie, how many elders are in charge of the Martial Hall?"

"Under normal circumstances, the Martial Hall is managed by Elder Yi Xuan and assisted by two elders, making them three," Feng Lie replied after pondering briefly. He was an old disciple who had been in the sect for years and naturally knew more than Liu Wuxie.

"Why do I only see two people in the central control system?" Liu Wuxie frowned. Unlike what Feng Lie said, only two people were in the central control system.

"What? You can see the central control system?" The three's faces changed. They had powerful soul energy, but their divine sense couldn't escape the chamber. So, how did Liu Wuxie manage to do it?

"Well, I practice an eye technique!"

After hearing Liu Wuxie's reply, the three's faces returned to calm. They thought Liu Wuxie's primordial spirit had reached the level of the Nascent Transformation Realm.
