Chapter 57: 57. Spiritual Energy Borrowing

Fang Zhou also realized that sharp weapons were of no use against these two paper figures.

Fortunately, he had more than just a sword, and imdiately summoned Hu Lai’s left hand, aiming a fierce hamr blow at the paper figure on the right.

Since Hu Lai’s left hand was invisible, the paper figure on the left was completely unaware of the need to help block, allowing its teammate to be brutally struck.

With a thud, Hu Lai’s left hand smashed a punch onto the head of the right paper figure, completely flattening its head.

Although they were sufficiently defensive against sharp blades, blunt force damage was completely different; the paper figures were hollow inside and, aside from fear of water and fire, their biggest weakness was blunt force.

With its head flattened, this paper figure seed to malfunction, stumbling and falling down.

The paper figure on the left swung its knife over, and Fang Zhou controlled the left hand to sweep across, hamring it away with a punch.

The chest of the paper figure was crushed, leaving a huge dent, and it fell to the ground and couldn’t get up.

In less than a mont, the two paper figures were defeated.

The Scarred Woman showed a look of astonishnt; she had just been mocking Fang Zhou for engaging in futile efforts, but in the blink of an eye, she was proven wrong, as the paper figures—her important magic artifacts which had resolved many tricky enemies for her—were quickly overturned.

Moreover, she couldn’t see through how Fang Zhou had managed it, as if an invisible hand was assisting him.

After disposing of the two paper figures, Fang Zhou charged again towards the Scarred Woman, aiming his sword at her head.

The Scarred Woman regained her composure, her wrist flicked, and a paper sword slid out from her sleeve.

She raised the paper sword, blocking Fang Zhou’s attack; this paper sword was even more sturdy than the paper figures.

Fang Zhou controlled Hu Lai’s left hand, smashing it down towards the Scarred Woman’s head.

The Scarred Woman was not like the two paper figures; she heard the movent of the left hand’s attack and imdiately dodged backward.

With a bang, the left hand hamred the ground, blasting the solid floor and causing mud and stones to splash.

The Scarred Woman finally understood how Fang Zhou had defeated the two paper figures; indeed, there was an invisible hand assisting from the side.

She sneered, “Not bad, I underestimated you.”

Fang Zhou didn’t waste words and charged again.

The Scarred Woman swung her sword fiercely, the paper sword cutting through the air with a shrill sound, almost turning into a blurred white shadow.

Fang Zhou also swung the Evil Slaying Sword; the two swords collided again, producing a clang of piercing sound.

A trendous force transmitted from the Evil Slaying Sword, numbing Fang Zhou’s arm and making his hand hurt.

He was shocked by the woman’s strength.

The Scarred Woman delivered another swift and peerless sword strike, landing on the blade of the Evil Slaying Sword.

Fang Zhou was shaken so much that he could barely hold onto the Evil Slaying Sword, quickly retreating as the Scarred Woman chased him laughing, “Don’t hide, weren’t you very impressive?”

Her sword strikes were faster one after another, growing stronger, and Fang Zhou dared not et her directly, only able to rely on his high agility to dodge.

Swipe!

Fang Zhou dodged a head-on sword strike, and the Scarred Woman’s sword cut a large stone in half, leaving a smooth, neat cut.

Fang Zhou took this opportunity to escape further, turning back to see the split stone, his heart suddenly leapt.

Spiritual Energy Borrowing!

This was a technique usable only in the Foundation Establishnt Realm.

Originally, Li Ruyu had demonstrated to Fang Zhou how a sword could split a stone.

In the Qi Refinent realm, cultivators could only use Spiritual Energy within their bodies, but once they reached Foundation Establishnt, cultivators could bring its effects onto objects, covering them with Spiritual Energy to produce various magical effects. The most common application was to cover weapons with Spiritual Energy, making them incredibly strong and able to cut through tal as if it were mud.

This technique is known as Spiritual Energy Borrowing.

Scarred Woman can achieve this; she is definitely a Cultivator in the Foundation Establishnt Realm, Han Li guessed correctly. There really is a Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivator hiding their strength among a group of Qi Refinent Realm foot soldiers, truly a cunning old fox.

Fortunately, Fang Zhou’s Evil Slaying Sword is sturdy enough, otherwise he would have ended up like the senior sister from White Tiger Sect.

No wonder the Scarred Woman’s strength is so formidable.

Fang Zhou’s body, having been enhanced by system attribute points and further strengthened by the Qi Gathering Technique, surpasses most Qi Refinent Realm cultivators in strength and speed; however, he is still clearly at a disadvantage compared to the Scarred Woman.

This makes him recall a simple description of the Foundation Establishnt Realm—after Foundation Establishnt, one undergoes a transformation, no longer ordinary.

[Trigger new mission – Defeat a Foundation Establishnt Realm Cultivator]

[Difficulty: Normal]

[Reward: Masculinity*4, blue card*1]

[Failure: Lose virginity, death by exhaustion]

The system mission popped up tily, as those two paper n hadn’t triggered any missions.

Seeing the mission description, Fang Zhou was shocked; why is it only a normal difficulty? Could it be that facing a Foundation Establishnt Realm opponent is just considered dangerous?

Once he realized Scarred Woman was in the Foundation Establishnt Realm, Fang Zhou had already thought about running away.

However, he soon understood why the difficulty is so low—he still has 14 points of masculinity unused; adding these to his attributes, flipping the Scarred Woman could be a breeze.

But there are still the Tree Demon and the calabash brothers later, Fang Zhou didn’t want to waste this precious opportunity on the Scarred Woman.

However, Fang Zhou didn’t have ti to ponder further, as the Scarred Woman charged at him again, swinging her paper sword and creating dazzling streaks of sword light, delivering overpowering powerful attacks on Fang Zhou.

She was not using any sophisticated swordsmanship, but simply utilizing imnse strength and speed, and even with that, Fang Zhou was already struggling to manage.

“Give up, kid. Just lie down obediently, and after I have my fun, I’ll let you live a little longer.”

The Scarred Woman attacked while attempting to persuade him to surrender, disrupting Fang Zhou’s fighting spirit, and the mission’s failure conditions confird that her surrender offer was insincere—this vicious woman was bent on destruction and murder.

Fang Zhou remained silent, continuously retreating until he was backed into a collapsed ruin with no way out.

He thrust his sword at the Scarred Woman but she sneered, flicking it aside: “Useless, your strength is far less than mine!”

With the Evil Slaying Sword deflected, Fang Zhou was wide open, and the Scarred Woman, with a brutal and cruel expression, swung her sword down towards Fang Zhou’s arms, intending to cut off both hands first.

Fang Zhou’s eyes flashed with brilliance, adding four points of masculinity to his strength.

Instantly, his strength attribute surged from 4 to 8, and with the enhancent from the Qi Gathering Technique, it reached 10 points.

Once the attribute reached 10 points, as if quantity had caused a qualitative change, an overwhelming force burst forth from Fang Zhou’s body, flowing into his arms.

The deflected Evil Slaying Sword, with an increased speed, reversed and swept back, striking the paper sword with an impressive shrill.

“Clang!”

A far more grating collision sound than before echoed as the two swords rebounded from each other’s force.

Scarred Woman displayed a look of astonishnt, not understanding how Fang Zhou’s strength had suddenly increased so much.

She could still distinguish between being in full control and exerting all her strength.

Fang Zhou swung away the Scarred Woman’s paper sword and, controlling Hu Lai’s left hand, smashed it down on her head.

The Scarred Woman tried to dodge, but Fang Zhou cast an Illusion Technique, trapping her in an illusion.

Though she broke free from the Illusion Technique in just a brief mont, it was enough ti for Fang Zhou; Hu Lai’s left hand heavily smashed onto her head.

The Scarred Woman let out a muffled grunt, rapidly retreating backward, as Fang Zhou followed up with a thrust of his sword.
