Chapter 586: It Took a Few Minutes
As Hui fell, body falling apart, qi flowing backward, he examined the qi signature of the melting attack. Tiny bits of the mans qi flew through his body, the itty blade-like qi shards tearing into him.
Interesting, interesting. Hmm. Its something like autonomous miniature qi structures that go forth and kill through a thousand tiny cuts. Like nanoblades! Although none of the qi structures on their own would do much, if you use a thousand, a hundred thousand, a million of them at once, you can break down almost anything. And theyre so small that few things defend against them. A heavy strike could break through them, yes, but at the same time, the tiny qi structures would attack back against the heavy strike and wear it away. Theyre something like like qi sandpaper, but turbo-sandpaper.
Blood surged up in his throat. Hui paused a moment, then coughed it up. Might as well. For dramatic effect.
Though I have to admit, its truly a dangerous technique. If not for my newly-forged phoenix-fire death playing revival technique, I would never dared let it touch me. Its deeply damaged my body and qi passages beyond repair. I would have had to find some way to block the attack while pretending to take the attack, and I wouldnt have been able to experience the techniques power firsthand.
Hmm, I wonder how far I should fall before I rejuvenate my body? Hui quietly watched the battle overhead. Bai Xue stood at a distance, using the qi hed left her to send waves of ice at the man. He charged in and pierced through the barrier Hui had left. His hand closed around Bai Xues neck, only for Bai Xues entire body to shatter, nothing but an ice statue. From behind him and slightly overhead, Bai Xue laughed, red eyes glittering in amusement. The man shouldnt attack Bai Xue to kill, since, after all, whats the point of hostage-taking if the person youre taking hostages from is dead, but I cant count on my enemies to be as level-headed and reasonable in battle as I am.
Casually, Hui slowed the rate of his fall, giving himself a few extra seconds to take in the battlefield. In fact, rather than fighting to kill, these enemies should be fighting to stall for time so that whoever has kidnapped our kids can get away over the mountains or through them, or use some kind of teleportation formation.

His eyes darted over to Li Xiang, who easily held her own against the second fighter now that Bai Xue was fighting the qi-melting-hand cultivator. Hmm. If I was these guys where would I position myself to keep the mothers from finding the children? Theyve stopped us here. This is where they draw the line. But why? They could continue to fall back and give chase.
I Hui sighed. Please do, Elder Sister. If you run out of qi, let me know. I might be able to send you more? But dont count on it. I havent come up with the technique yet.
You feel like you can? Bai Xue asked skeptically. A wave of fire lit up the sky, and the barrier-melting-hand cultivator fell back. The male Bai Xue strode forward domineeringly, dark hair fluttering on the wind, eyes narrowed almost to slits. He swept his fan again, and another wave of fire crashed down on the enemy. The enemy held up their hand, melting the fire around them, but sweat still broke out on their body from the fearsome heat.
Er, well, I couldnt create wireless internet at fifth realm, but Im seventh realm now, so surely
Internet?
Ah, never mind, never mind! Focus on the fight. I think I can rescue our children!
Go.
Hui plunged into the trees, vanishing into the dark beneath.
