Chapter 169 – The Fiend Fright Burst
(Mustang: Hey guys, this is a regular Chapter.
ps: I’m wondering why all the chapter 69s in this novel have girls…)
Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had such a weak appearance that a lot of men were fantasying about being her knight in the shining armor. But once her momentum started to burst out, the storming force of it shocked Mo Nan, along with all the knights.
Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s momentum was extremely violent, and was full of evil spirits, just like the Devil’s Abyss race.
“How can that be?” Bi Fan was extremely surprised: “How can a human have such a powerful influence of evil spirits? I have faced so many creatures of the Devil’s Race, and her momentum’s composition is very similar to theirs’.”
“It seems that Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu has been practicing ‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ for a very long time, and that’s probably why she has such a large amount of negative force inside her body.” Ling Xin Ya stated.
“The Fiend Fright Burst?” the Quinyang Sect disciples were quite confused since they had never heard of this method before.
Ling Xin Ya explained: “’The Fiend Fright Burst’ is a tabooed method. It’s very powerful, and even though its practice is very good for raising inner energy levels. However, due to prolonged practice, a person might lose control over their own body and mind, and is likely to go on a wanton killing spree. The Wu Ji Sect banned the practice of this method a long time ago, and burnt down all the books that they possessed on the skill. But it seems to me that the Wu Ji Sect saved some of those books, and has been using them to teach her this skill now. I couldn’t have ever imagined them doing this!”
“So, this little girl is actually very powerful?” Jing Feng asked: “Is there any danger to Brother Mo Nan’s life here?”
Ling Xin Ya sighed: “Unfortunately Mo Nan hasn’t been able to perfect ‘The Sword of the Land’ skill yet, otherwise he could have sorted her out in no time. But right now, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu poses a big threat to his safety…”
Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s momentum continued to rise, but it also started suppressing Mo Nan’s.
Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s pigtail was flying in air, under the influence of all the baleful energy that surrounded her.
Mo Nan bore the burn of it, and promptly started rearranging his inner energy to resist the corrosion.
“This is chick is too powerful, and it seems that I’m going to have a tough time.” Mo Nan thought.
“The Yin Yang Sword!” Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s voice sounded so cold that it seemed as if it was coming straight from h.e.l.l.
At this point Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was no longer the beauty that had walked onto the stage, but a messenger from the infernal h.e.l.l.
“Ah….” Many of the male spectators had been fantasizing about her, but at this point they were all looking at her with a hint of fear in their eyes.
Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was a thorn rather than the rose, and now that the evil spirits had started to break out of her body, no one wanted to go anywhere near her.
Mo Nan was in a lot of trouble; not only did he have to face wave after wave of her attacks, but was also being forced to recirculate his inner energy to ward off the erosion from the evil spirits.
Therefore, Mo Nan was being forced to consume a lot of energy, but Mo Nan didn’t want to admit his defeat, which is why he decided to play one last card, and cast out ‘The Sword of the Land’ attack.
This was his trump card, and if this attack wasn’t enough to beat Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu then Mo Nan was ready to concede the fight.
‘The Sword of the World’ was an ancient skill, and only the older generation was able recognize the technique.
“That looks like Xiang Wen Tian’s ‘The Sword of the World’! How’s a Quinyang Sect disciple able to use it?” Xuan Yuan Ling Feng was extremely surprised.
Most people from the older generation had either seen Xiang Wen Tian in action, or had at least heard of him, but the younger generation was completely new to this strange ancient skill.
As soon as Mo Nan cast out ‘The Sword of the World’, the battle’s standing started to change very quickly.
A perfect display of ‘The Sword of the World’, and no enemy stands a chance!
His indomitable and invincible momentum started weakening the evil spirits.
Mo Nan launched a quick attack, even though he wasn’t adapt at the skill, since he wanted to finish the fight as soon as possible. The longer the fight dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for him.
The moment Mo Nan launched his quick attack, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu also changed her tactics, and started using ‘The Tai Chi Sword’ to defend. She wasn’t allowing Mo Nan to take advantage of his exceptional skill.
They exchanged hundreds of strokes in quick succession but Mo Nan was unable to hurt Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu, and eventually his momentum started to get weaker since he was consuming too much energy.
“You won’t be able to impose on me for long, let’s see what happens once you’re done!” Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu sneered.
“I give up!” Mo Nan wisely threw in the towel. It was just the first day of the final round, and Mo Nan still had nine days to make up for his loss. But if he got injured today, then he may not be able to partic.i.p.ate in the future rounds, which would be a huge blow to his hopes of getting a good rank.
Considering that Mo Nan was beaten, he took his best available choice, since it would be foolish to unnecessarily damp his future opportunities.
“Brother Mo Nan, alas…” Jing Feng shook his head.
“Just my luck Brother…. I ran into such a doughty little cutie.” Mo Nan sighed.
“Practicing ‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ is very risky…it’s a pity that such an adorable little girl is doing such an activity!” Ling Xin Ya sighed.
Jing Feng asked out of curiosity: “Deputy Master, are you suggesting that she….”
“Yes, thousands of years ago, many people used to practice ‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ because it was very powerful. But it wasn’t very surprising when many of these people were eventually possessed by the Devil since their bodies were flowing with much negative energy.” Ling Xin Ya explained.
He paused for a moment and continued: “After the experiments of several people, it was decided that ‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ must not be practiced, since only a very few people were able to escape the negative effects of the method.”
“It’s really a pity… she’s such a beautiful little girl!” a core disciple muttered.
“The Wu Ji Sect certainly knows the hazards of practicing such methods and knows that it will eventually take hold of Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu’s body.” Ling Xin Ya stated.
Luo Xiao Tian a.n.a.lyzed: “If the Wu Ji Sect started using the evil methods once again, then I’m afraid that no other Sect in the Jiu Yu City will be able to stand against them, and they’ll end up dominating the entire region.”
Ling Xin Ya hadn’t thought of this possibility yet, and his face changed very drastically all of a sudden.
‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ was a very powerful method, and the evil spirits it evoked, weakens the opponent’s strength.
The Wu Ji Sect was once known for practicing this method, and no one could overlook that fact.
“The Fiend Fright Burst!” Bi Fan’s heart was full of curiosity, and he wished to experience the method firsthand.
In fact, the ‘Blood Devil’ method was also quite excellent to increase the inner energy, but its prolonged practice would fill the body with evil spirits, since all evil spirits have the same purpose.
Bi Fan had some heart in his body, which is why he didn’t wish to practice the ‘Blood Devil’ method rigorously.
“Master, ‘The Fiend Fright Burst’ is obviously a Devil’s method, then why are the Buddhist disciples allowed to practice it?” Bi Fan asked.
Ling Xin Ya replied: “The Buddhist disciples are prohibited from practicing such methods but some people still do it to increase strength. Since it increases strength very quickly, no one interferes unless the person starts getting violent…”
“Ah!” Bi Fan was secretly very delighted.
“Bi Fan, you will not touch the Devil’s Methods! The practice of these methods is very cruel, and it’s very easy to lose your mind, and you you’ll end up becoming a killing machine. Once you do that, all the other Sect’s will team up against the Quinayang Sect, and then there will be no saving you.” Ling Xin Ya warned.
Luo Xiong commented: “If some people aren’t afraid of death, then they can practice such methods, and no one will stop them.”
“We are all disciples of the Buddhist Way, and it’s best to refrain from practicing such evil methods. Sometimes it doesn’t reflect very early, but eventually the body gets possessed by the devil.” Yan Yu Si added.
“Yes…” Bi Fan nodded.
“Humph!” Luo Xiong snorted.
Bi Fan was already thinking about this method in high spirits, and was quite seduced by its lucrative advantages since it was very similar to the ‘Blood devil’ method.
But he was a bit worried too, since he didn’t wish to lose his mind.
Bi Fan wanted to increase his strength as fast as possible, but he didn’t wish to turn into a slaughtering machine.
Knowing the negative influence of such evil methods, Bi Fan couldn’t gather the heart to practice them.
Bi Fan’s eyes suddenly became very staunch; he had made up his mind. And once Bi Fan makes a decision, he doesn’t alter it.
