Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 165 - 97 Stop, You Can’t Hurt the Saintess! What Happened on the Mountain Top?_2

~4 minute read · 884 words

That moment just now, that sense of impending death, made her feel that the bottleneck at the Late Stage of the Fifth Layer, which she hadn’t been able to break through for over thirty days, had finally loosened somewhat! However, it wasn’t enough. She still needed continuous combat; she needed more...

POP.

Xiaoo Ying’Er’s eyes turned sharp as she took off her protective Profound Jade from her waist and threw it to the ground. At the same time, she took off the Jade Scale Armor, one of the Eight Great Treasures, which had already been half-activated, and threw it to the ground as well. Subsequently, she took out a brilliant, Buddhist Secret Pattern-covered Treasure Elixir, even more miraculous than the Golden Body Treasure Elixir Lin Xuankong had, and put it into her mouth!

Immediately after, the terrifying, mountain-like Demon Sparrow appeared above her head. On her right side, a giant Ghost Frog Demon materialized. The seductive red light emanating from her body began to distort, as if about to transform into the form of a bird, appearing mighty, noble, and filled with terrifying power...

At this moment, this Saintess, whose true strength was at the Late Stage of the Fifth Layer but was suppressed to the Perfection Realm of the Third Layer, actually abandoned all defense and protection. She activated only her most ferocious attacks: the Top-grade Golden Body Treasure Pill, the Demon Sparrow Demon Pearl, the Ghost Frog Demon Pearl, and her Blood Bath Divine Skill at its strongest state within the Perfection Realm of the Third Layer!

Seeing this, Lin Xuankong gently clenched his fist, making a CRACKLE CRACKLE sound. "If I’m not mistaken, you seemed to be injured just now, right? So, can I choose either the Evil Sheep Demon Pearl or the Marsh Python Demon Pearl as a reward?"

Kneeling on one knee beside Xiaoo Ying’Er, Ding Rui’s eyebrows shot up. "What are you thinking? You injured the Third Miss! That is an unforgivable crime!"

"No!" Xiaoo Ying’Er declared. "He absolutely can choose a Demon Pearl as a reward!"

Xiaoo Ying’Er took light steps, treading on the white carpet nearby as she walked towards Lin Xuankong.

Seeing the Saintess speak, Ding Rui’s expression changed instantly. After glaring fiercely at Lin Xuankong, she lowered her head. "It was my mistake!"

Xiaoo Ying’Er ignored Ding Rui. Her face was calm, but her clear eyes held a trace of barely perceptible excitement. "However, you must continue to battle with me. I hope you can still display that formidable offensive power from before!"

After saying this, Xiaoo Ying’Er carefully observed the over-one-zhang-tall Lin Xuankong.

Lin Xuankong’s heart also surged with fighting spirit. He flexed his arm slightly. "As you wish!"

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!

The sound of rending air echoed. Before Lin Xuankong’s words even faded, Xiaoo Ying’Er had already exploded forward with incredible speed, charging towards him.

At this moment, Xiaoo Ying’Er, with the red light around her body manifesting as a Divine Bird and empowered by the Top-grade Golden Body Treasure Pill, exhibited Explosive Power and speed several times greater than when she fought any other Martial Cultivator—so fast that Ding Rui could barely follow her movements!

Ding Rui’s expression changed slightly.

Ding Rui, herself at the Late Stage of the Fourth Layer, felt a profound sense of dejection.

Thinking this, she looked at the two already engaged in battle, a smile touching the corners of her lips.

However, Ding Rui, who wholeheartedly hoped for the Saintess to win, hadn’t yet considered something. Xiaoo Ying’Er was only wearing the White Python Shirt, while Lin Xuankong was burdened by a vast amount of incredibly heavy Exorcism Equipment. Under these circumstances, the Saintess was only slightly faster. If Lin Xuankong were to remove his Battle Armor, how much faster would he be than the Saintess?

「At this moment,」

Xiaoo Ying’Er was constantly weaving, striking Lin Xuankong repeatedly with her palms.

The gigantic Demon Sparrow darted at Lin Xuankong, occasionally attacking him with flames of extremely high temperature.

When the flames dodged by Lin Xuankong struck the ground, the large rocks on the mountaintop platform quickly turned crimson. If not for the special Runes arrayed there, these rocks would have already melted into magma!

The other demon, the Ghost Frog King, was attempting to entangle Lin Xuankong with its hundreds of Long Tongues, frantically corroding the white aura on the surface of Lin Xuankong’s Battle Armor with its venom. Occasionally, it would leap forward, mouth agape, trying to swallow him whole!

Unfortunately, Lin Xuankong, unleashing nearly half his strength and foundation, was not someone the Tier Three Ghost Frog King could contend with. In the exchange of attacks and defense, after enduring several palm strikes from Xiaoo Ying’Er, his body quivered slightly. Then, he activated the Celestial Eye, staring into Xiaoo Ying’Er’s eyes. Seeing that the Entering Illusion technique hadn’t taken effect, he paid it no mind. He swung his six- to seven-foot-long arm, grabbed a large number of the Ghost Frog King’s tongues, and with a powerful yank, actually dragged the thousand-jin Ghost Frog King towards him!
