Chapter 438: 438, [Supreme Being: Orange Level] (Thanks to Alliance Hierarch “Ai Ai” for another 100k reward!)

Lu Xun never expected to see such a hairstyle hidden beneath the high priest’s felt hat.

“This bald look is quite unique,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

The felt hat, propelled away by the intensity of the fight, was quickly torn apart by the residual force of the Sword Qi, disappearing amid the sword’s light.

The blue-black specks sprayed from the large hole in the split-arm clone’s chest, causing the entire body to wither instantly.

He was “leaky.”

The blue-black specks dispersed around, leaving a major hollow in the clone’s torso. Consequently, its entire back arched, looking somewhat misshapen.

Ignoring the high priest’s murky eyes, his appearance was that of a typical innocent boy. Now, however, he looked like a crippled and deformed child.

Mao Nanbei, wielding the Demon Blade—the Bodhisattva’s Hoar, observed from atop a paper crane for quite some time.

She was well aware that her abilities were leagues apart from the high priest’s, meaning she rarely got a chance to fight.

But this moment was her golden opportunity!

She swung the Demon Blade, the Bodhisattva’s Hoar, forward, initiating a dazzling Knife Gang.

Kick him while he’s down!

Lu Xun had taught her this move; the little Lolita even learned a new term from him in the process: the follow-up attack.

Now was the time for this follow-up attack!

“This old lady will slash off your head with a single slice!”

Following a swift air slash, Mao Nanbei lunged toward the high priest’s clone.

Seeing this, Lu Xun shouted, “Divine Fire!”

With a simple flicker of a thought, black flames engulfed the Knife Gang.

This clone of the high priest, reeling from the aftereffects of the Sword Qi, had no time to fend off this attack.

The knife gang tore through its neck. Initially, due to the disparity in their powers, it merely slit a small seam.

Under the support of the Divine Fire, however, the small seam began to burn and spread in all directions!

Finally, boosted by the Knife Gang, the clone’s head was decapitated!

An immense amount of blue-black light specks surged out only to be consumed instantly by the surrounding Divine Fire.

Lu Xun noticed that the Divine Fire was more effective than he had imagined. Although its power is linked to his own level of cultivation and is temporarily not as brutally strong as the Soul Devouring Flame, it gives a sense of being capable of incinerating everything!

Upon witnessing this, the second sister swung her Wooden Sword, the Sound of Slow Motion, forward, aiming to sever the headless clone, and annihilate all the remaining light specks.

This marked the complete obliteration of one of the high priest’s clones.

The second sister, wielding the Sword Qi is Near, had merely swung the sword twice so far!

The situation evolved just as she had previously assumed: Although she could not frequently use the ‘Sword Qi is Near’, it was enough to kill him!

The high priest’s remaining clone, who had hardly managed to shed the entire remaining force of the Sword Qi, had his murky eyes filled with astonishment.

He never thought that this sword could be so powerful!

If Gu Xiaoman could slash two more, then this clone was doomed!

The high priest floated in the air, exchanging glances with Gu Xiaoman, who was a considerable distance away.

Gu Xiaoman stood holding her two swords. Her face, as tranquil as ever, was serene, study, and calm.

Her state hadn’t been affected by the two swords she had previously swung. Conversely, after destroying a clone with the two slashes, her Sword Intent was still on the rise!

The high priest reached up and adjusted his felt hat, which was about to fall off. He quickly decided on his next course of action.

He lunged forward with both hands, tore through the space, and made an apparent attempt to escape.

Without any hesitation, Gu Xiaoman raised ‘The Sword Qi is Near’ and swung it forward.

As the domineering Sword Qi approached, the high priest’s back was marked before he escaped the scene.

“He managed to escape!” Lu Xun regretted inwardly.

He turned his head to look at his second sister and noticed that she seemed almost ready to fall as she floated in mid-air.

“No good!” thought Lu Xun.

In her descending moment, Lu Xun quickly controlled the paper crane and reached out to catch his second sister.

As he held the second sister in his arms, Lu Xun’s first thought was, “She’s so light.”

The second sister was noticeably thin but quite tall, standing at a height of about 1.7 meters. When he held her, the feather-like lightness struck Lu Xun.

Beyond her lightness, he also felt a special coolness from the second sister’s body.

It was presently July, the sizzling summer. This cooling feeling was utterly entrancing.

Lu Xun’s left hand was supporting the back of his Second Senior Sister, and his right hand was around her legs.

Though these slender legs were thoroughly concealed by the black Daoist robe, at the moment of touch, he could still feel their roundness and elasticity.

As Lu Xun moved, the Second Senior Sister’s legs were slightly bent, causing the robe to have minor wrinkles and rise slightly.

The robe no longer obscured her legs completely; after rising a small section, it revealed a snippet of her ankle.

——As white as snow!

Lu Xun looked down at his Second Senior Sister in his arms, while she looked up at him.

Generally speaking, such intimacy between men and women was somewhat overstepping.

Even thick-skinned Lu Xun was a little embarrassed. On the contrary, his Second Senior Sister was as calm as ever.

There was none of the blushing one would expect from a woman, just like any other day, her face was like a deep pool without a single ripple.

It seemed like even a Charisma of 10 had little effect on her.

Her heart was too calm.

What Lu Xun didn’t notice was that the Second Senior Sister’s left hand was unconsciously clenching the robe.

At this moment, Lu Xun slowly laid the Second Senior Sister down and had her sit on the paper crane.

The face of the Second Senior Sister, who sat again, was slightly pale, which clearly wasn’t a good sign.

“Second Senior Sister, are you okay?” Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei asked with concern.

“No…no harm, I’ve just…used too much internal…energy.” Gu Xiaoman shook her head and then began to close her eyes and regain her equilibrium.

Lu Xun looked in the direction where the High Priest had fled, and then he realized that the battle they just had was actually a psychological one.

At first, the High Priest pretended to escape as a test for the Second Senior Sister.

If the Second Senior Sister hadn’t swung her sword without hesitation, the High Priest might not have run but directly counterattacked instead.

If it had been like that, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The Second Sister had reached her limit with three uses of “The Sword Qi is Near”, now she needed to meditate and recover. Even if Lu Xun used the green pearl, he couldn’t help her.

The green pearl was for healing wounds, but it couldn’t restore energy.

Gu Xiaoman continued to meditate and the control of the paper crane was taken over by Mao Nanbei. Lu Xun sat aside, reading the prompt information in front of him.

Just now, one of the High Priest’s clones had been destroyed, and Lu Xun had made a slight contribution.

Therefore, he also managed to get some rewards.

“[Ding! You have received a reward of 3.1 million Experience Points!]”

“[Ding! You have received a reward of 800 Faction Contribution Points!]”

Lu Xun looked at the prompt information with surprise, “Wow, it seems like slaying this High Priest’s clone yields more rewards than killing the Second Priest’s original body!”

For a moment, Lu Xun was curious. If he had the ability to kill a clone on his own, how many kill rewards would he receive?

It would probably be a terrifying number…

After receiving the reward, Lu Xun opened his character panel and looked at his current experience points.

The total amount of experience points had reached 6.37 million. Once he had 7 million, he could level up again.

Lu Xun had felt a strong urgency to level up recently.

First, because he had been targeted by the Foreign Race repeatedly, which put great pressure on him.

Second, because he wanted to break through the critical level of 50 early, to become a Great Cultivator!

Don’t forget, the mysterious Five Elements Cultivation Method he is practicing now has many special features.

Apart from consuming a lot of experience points, the fifth realm is a watershed of this method.

Before the fifth realm, this method is superior purple level. It’s mainly because it’s hard to practice and besides having thick Spiritual Power and balanced Five Elements, there doesn’t seem to be anything special about it.

But after the fifth realm, this method would be orange level!

Lu Xun had always remembered this, never forgotten.

And the Orange Level is the peak, not divided into lower, middle, or superior.

The Orange Level is the ultimate form!

Therefore, Lu Xun knew clearly that the day he breaks through to the fifth realm might be the day he will transform!

He was very eager to see what changes will the Five Elements Cultivation Method bring after reaching the fifth realm?
