But within the cave, countless Tengshe snakes were surging forward in waves, obstructing Li Xuan’s path.
As they sank about seventeen teals below the ground, Li Xuan saw several forks in the cave below. The two girls, Xue Yunrou, who were initially dragged together, unexpectedly were separated. One went left, the other went right, each was pulled into a different fork.
Li Xuan’s spirits dropped slightly, knowing that he could not delay any further.
Under such circumstances, he had no choice but to use the true aning of Martial Law. The problem was that he still did not have the confidence to apply it in actual combat.
But at this mont, even without confidence, he had to give it a try.
Li Xuan tightly gripped the Huaiyi Blade, his entire body not advancing but retreating, his figure rose several tres, anwhile, he exhaled heavily. Then, suddenly, innurable ice crystals ford on the walls of the deep pit.
By this ti, a white mist had ford around Li Xuan’s body.
Frozen Blade* Snowy Soul!
As the long blade struck down, it emitted a chilling white blade glow that was nearly a dozen ters long. But what was even more astonishing was the endless, piercing coldness that was displayed by the blade, making the surrounding temperature almost close to absolute zero.
This was sothing that Li Xuan normally could not do. But at this mont, his energy was surging, and it seed to resonate with his frosty true intent and Nether Demon, bringing about a convergence of forces.
In an instant, all the Tengshe snakes in front of Li Xuan were frozen and spread rapidly to the depths of the cave, even slowing down the speed of the vine pulling Xue Yunrou.
At this mont, Li Xuan’s true insight transford from ice to thunder, executing a familiar move from Huandian Knife,
Huandian Knife* Thousand Miles Thunderstorm!
A sweep of the blade, a burst of thunder, swept forward devastatingly, leveling everything in its path. Just in under two seconds, Li Xuan arrived at Xue Yunrou’s side.
His blade swung, the true aning of Martial Law manifested, promptly cutting through the vines binding Xue Yunrou. She broke free from the bonds, promptly raising her Mana to bring the ’Umbrella of Yin Yuan’ to protect her. ’Xuanming Zhiyang Shuttle’, carrying endless thunder explosion, eradicated all Tengshe snakes around.
Just as Xue Yunrou was about to say sothing, Li Xuan looked gravely, purple thunderbolts erged around him, stretching to form two vast wings.
If Li Chengji were here at this mont, he would recognize that Li Xuan is trying to use the ’Real Intent of Thunder* Electronic Transition’ that Li Lexing once demonstrated.
But just as Li Xuan had just begun, he felt a sense of foreboding. His Zhenyuan seems to be depleted in this brief mont.
He could still stop at this point, but to his Divine Consciousness, Yue Qianqian was dragged into the underground in this brief period. Below them was a crisscross underground river, he had no idea where it led.
Other than the strategy that Li Lexing taught him, Li Xuan could not think of any other way to cross a thirty-teal thick layer of soil and reach Yue Qianqian’s side in five seconds.
Fortunately, he had anticipated this beforehand and had used an ’Erjiu Guiyuan Elixir’ in advance. The Elixir that was used for regaining strength was dissolving in his stomach, and a consistent stream of Yuan Qi was pouring into his depleted ridians.
At this mont, Li Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood: "After Earl Chengyi, I am asking for the Dragon King’s assistance!"
He is using his own blood lineage to ask for help from the Dragon King of the region.
Places like these underground rivers are generally under the jurisdiction of the Well Dragon King. But this is Nanjing, the one who controls this region is the Lord Dragon of Jinling.
In an instant, strands of vast Yuan Qi suddenly arrived from all directions and poured violently into his body. The strength of the Yuan Qi was many folds stronger than that provided by the ’Erjiu Guiyuan Elixir’, filling the void within Li Xuan almost instantly.
Li Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim internally at the generosity of Lord Dragon of Jinling. Or was it that he is just as magnanimous towards him and his brothers?
In the next mont, as the overwhelming thunder wings suddenly vanished, Li Xuan’s figure also disappeared from the spot.
In this short span of ti, Yue Qianqian was dragged further away by those vines than what Li Xuan had previously predicted, the distance between the two was more than thirty teals.
But with the help of Dragon King’s Yuan Qi, Li Xuan managed to catch up. The next mont, his Thunder Blade erupted, and all the vines around were blown to dust by the sweeping blade light and thunderbolt.
Then, Li Xuan swung his blade downwards again, switching to the Frozen Blade, instantly freezing the Dark River within eighty teals around, encasing all the lurking vines in the water.
Once the two landed on the surface of the Dark River, the previously desperate Yue Qianqian was now crying in joy, clinging to Li Xuan like an octopus, trying to draw warmth from him.
Just a while ago when she was pulled alone into the deep pit and she saw Li Xuan disappear, the feeling of helplessness and fear almost devoured her spirit.
The despair and fear even surpassed the ti when she was kidnapped by Faxing.
So when Li Xuan appeared and rescued her from the vines, her joy was indescribable.
But imdiately after, Yue Qianqian noticed that Li Xuan’s face was bleeding from the seven orifices, blood was seeping out from his ears, nose, and eyes.
