Chapter 215: Pew Pew Shooting A Sword Through The Air

The Jade Creek Sword that was still in Shang Xia’s hand edged forward slightly. A thin stream of sword qi emerged as the two opposing types of qi merged, poking a small hole in Li Xi’s Twilight.

It might just be an incomparably small prick, but the effects were terrifying. The second wave of sword qi that wanted to swallow Shang Xia whole dissipated in an instant!

Li Xi quickly discovered that while?his sword qi was gone, his opponent’s wasn’t! He could tell that there was something strange about his opponent’s sword qi but he was unable to get rid of it no matter how he tried!

Shang Xia’s sword qi started to transform once again. A trace of white and a stream of black separated from the thin strand of sword qi as it turned into two slender fishes that swam in a perfect circle, chasing each other’s tail.

Even though Li Xi summoned more sword qi to defend himself, he discovered that they were on the verge of collapse! A surge of darkness threatened to overwhelm him.

When he finally forced his sword qi to come under control, the darkness receded and a piercing white glow took over. It broke through his defenses like it was paper!

Never in his wildest dreams did he think that his secondary sword intent would be destroyed so easily!

Even though his sword qi was still in the air, he had lost control of them completely. Li Xi knew that he had lost.

He was baffled by the way he lost, but he couldn’t do a thing about it!

Retrieving his sword, he discovered that the threat surrounding him had also disappeared. His opponent was standing opposite him with his sword behind his back.

“How?” Li Xi couldn’t help but ask.

Instead of replying immediately, Shang Xia thought about it for a second. “Twilight is the moment before dawn, and it represents both darkness and light. I only needed to reverse the flow of qi and everything came crumbling down.”

“Darkness and light…” Li Xi muttered to himself. Raising his head to stare at the enemy who defeated him, he sighed, “Interesting. Not anyone can integrate the properties of darkness and light into my Twilight sword intent. I guess there’s no point hiding anymore. You can call me Li Xu, and I’m the leader of the inner division of the Beihai Institution. You’re an admirable opponent!”

“It was a good battle, Brother Li! The five institutions defending the border stand on the same side. As it turns out, I was lucky enough to meet a comrade of the Beihai Institution today.” A smile formed on Shang Xia’s face. Even though a thousand questions were forming in his mind, his expression remained cheery. He wasn’t planning on digging deeper into the matter if the other party wasn’t planning to explain.

“I am ashamed of what happened today. In the future, I will definitely pay you a visit! I bid my farewell for now.” Li Xi cupped his fists towards Shang Xia before disappearing from the mob.

“Hehe… Impressive… he has two sword intents!”

Shang Xia overheard someone muttering to himself but was unable to pinpoint the source of the voice.

When he started to fight Li Xi, Shang Xia definitely had the intention of tempering his sword art through battle. However, he recalled the situation they were in and chose to end the battle as soon as he could.

Shang Xia might not know much about the darkness and light sword intent, but he could replicate both types of qi after fighting with Dongfang Mingyu twice.

In the past, Shang Xia was also able to transform his qi into light and heavy qi after obtaining the Unstable Rock. After refining Dongfang Mingyu’s sword qi back in the battlefield between two worlds, transforming his Yin Yang Essence Qi to darkness and light qi was a piece of cake.

When Li Xi revealed his secondary sword intent, Shang Xia was struck with a flash of inspiration. Darkness and light made up the foundations of Twilight and tempering with them would cause his opponent’s technique to crumble!

Shang Xia’s guess was on point. Li Xi was strong, but he wasn’t strong enough!

Naturally, Shang Xia was comparing Li Xi to himself. Against others at the same level, Li Xi would be a force to be reckoned with.

By the time Li Xi gathered his inner qi to release his secondary martial intent earlier, he was on the verge of exhaustion. His inner qi was running dry. It was no wonder Shang Xia could defeat him so easily.

At the end of the day, Li Xi only lost because of his weaker reserves. Shang Xia’s final act of reversing darkness and light only served to ensure his defeat.

Then again, the Beihai Institution was located in the Qing Continent. Coincidentally, the Dongfang Family of the Evil Remnants was based there! Shang Xia gasped silently when he thought about the sword art used by Li Xi and Dongfang Mingyu. Was it possible that Li Xi’s sword art had some sort of connection with the Dongfang Family?

Regardless, it wasn’t time to think about all that. The battle between Shang Xia and Li Xi earlier had exceeded the scope of a battle between Martial Extremity Realm disciples. Their battle completely shocked the mob who came to attack the Shang Clan’s convoy.

Moreover, Li Xi revealed his identity before he left. Anyone with half a brain in the crowd would realize that something was very wrong. No one would dare to jump out and cause trouble anymore. Regardless if they were spies from the other institutions like Li Xi or they were truly there to cause trouble, all of them had half a mind to escape. Even though they outnumbered Shang Xia countless times, they didn’t dare to take a step forward.

The battle between the Martial Intent Realm experts reached a new high as Shang Miao and the rest huddled closer around the carriages.

As the thought of assisting Yan Qi and Shang Xi entered his mind, a sharp whistle came from a pavilion a hundred feet away.

Shang Xia turned to stare at the source of the sound and he met the gaze of a patron in the pavilion.

“I am Ma Qi of the Weiwu Institution. I hope Brother Shang will be kind enough to give me some pointers.” A soft voice entered Shang Xia’s mind. Before he could react, a white-robed figure leaped out of the third-story window. His feet lightly tapped against the roofs of buildings separating them and it didn’t take long for him to approach Shang Xia.

His sleeves trembled slightly and a sword that was as thin as could be shot at Shang Xia while emitting frosty light.

“Flying Sword!”

Gasps came from the crowd as Shang Xia narrowed his eyes. He seemed as though he was trying to lock on to the flying sword.

Against the sword art that awed those present, Shang Xia looked incomparably calm.
