Chapter 28: Attracting Weirdos
Tianyi stood there stunned.
This was an open declaration of love!
Tianyi wondered whether Nanfang Wubai had a hole in her brain for using this precious chance to openly declare her intentions rather than focusing on being qualified to enter the secret realm. Not to mention Tianyi still had the appearance of a child who just entered their teenage years.
Unless Nanfang Wubai had a special interest in young boys?
And who would openly express love in such a way in front of everyone?
Even though Nanfang Wubai’s confession was spoken in dulcet tones and had a hint of shyness, creating a very alluring contrast, Tianyi only felt wariness. His intuition was warning him to be extremely careful against this unknown cultivator.
“Buzhou Immortal Sect disciple, Xi Tianyi, please advise.” Tianyi cupped his fists towards Nanfang Wubai, his intentions to fight couldn’t be more evident.
Nanfang Wubai showed an expression that made her seem truly disappointed at Tianyi’s reply and she half heartedly cupped her fist. “Myriad Sun Sect disciple, Nanfang Wubai, please be gentle~.”
Tianyi shivered again when Nanfang Wubai said gentle. Everything in his body felt repulsed by her.
Tianyi felt blood rise up in his mouth and instantly brought his handkerchief to his face. However Nanfang Wubai didn’t seem intent on attacking and simply raised her hand from her sides and displaying her broad sleeves, as if to say she was not up to anything.
Tianyi was alert and released his spiritual senses. Although he had not cultivated his Spiritual Cores, that did not mean Tianyi didn’t make any improvements.
He cultivated the Three Pure True Self Visualisation Technique everyday. And thanks to his painstaking efforts, his soul barely reached the threshold of the Nascent Soul realm and his spiritual sense was naturally more powerful than the majority of the Core Formation Masters here.
Although Tianyi cannot claim to be the only one with a soul at the Nascent Soul realm while in the Core Formation realm, in terms of soul strength he was one of the strongest at the Core Formation Realm on Heaven Shroud Island.
Tianyi frowned.
His spiritual senses didn’t capture any rippling of qi as if Nanfang Wubai truly was open with her intentions, but he sensed a strange absence of space the size of wood splinters.
Tianyi coughed even harder but his body began to release a strange pressure that made his outline seem to dissolve and blur into the environment. It wasn’t a true spell or technique but Tianyi simply released his chaotic true qi outside creating a small film of destruction protecting his body.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
All the while Tianyi stared at Nanfang Wubai who still had a mesmerizing smile on her face and hands spread apart as if to say she had no ill intent.
Tianyi pricked his eyebrows as he felt something touch the film of destruction that layered his body and instantly destroy itself.
His eyes hardened as he realized what was attacking him. They were thin sewing needles attached to strings, each of them he was unable to detect at all. He could sense the distortion of space that hid the needles but he couldn’t detect the strings at all.
What a sinister method.
Ever since he had gone through the Blood Absorption Ritual Tianyi had gained an intense hatred for needles.
Tianyi raised his free hand upwards and then smashed down towards Nanfang Wubai. Although he was a fair distance away, Nanfang Wubai felt as if she was under great pressure and she saw an illusionary palm seemingly formed from heaven itself crushing down towards her.
However Nanfang Wubai didn’t show any change in her demeanor and strings unseeable by the naked eye erupted from all her body and pierced through the illusionary palm. The illusionary palm began to dissipate and before it could reach her, it had already lost its form and turning it harmless.
All that it left was a breeze that made Nanfang Wubai’s hair flow in the wind. “Ah...sweetheart if you wanted to touch me, you could just do it. No need to use a proxy, I won’t mind if you want to directly touch me with your hand~.”
Tianyi coughed even more. Ever since Nanfang Wubai had opened her mouth, his goosebumps had never disappeared. Especially now that Nanfang Wubai hugged herself and squirmed erotically.
Tianyi even had half a mind to rip her tongue out, just to make the goosebumps disappear.
He didn’t close the distance but rather distanced himself from her and pointed his finger at her. Instantly blurry spears made of what seem to be grey clouds were formed and shot towards Nanfang Wubai.
Seeing that his Heavenly Suppressing Palm didn’t work, Tianyi abandoned using that move and instead agglomerated his chaotic true qi into weapon shapes using a simple spell.
His true qi of chaos was not easy to manipulate due to the ever changing nature of it, aggravated by the constant imbalance of yin and yang in his body. But since Tianyi was the master of the Spiritual Cores that produced the true qi he had a greater control over it.
And by using a little spell he could form them into shapes and send them out to attack. It was a brutish and simple method, but the destructive power of true qi of chaos was not to be underestimated.
Baoja wasn’t idle because as soon as the spears neared him his body became blurry and the heat surrounding the arena instantly surged upwards.
Like this the grey cloud spears passed harmlessly through the blurred form of Baoja.
“What is this? A heat mirage, but it can’t be so simple. Even my spiritual senses can’t pinpoint his location.”
Since he couldn’t pinpoint Baoja and snipe him, Tianyi decided to make up his deficit with numbers as hundreds of group cloud spears surged towards Baoja and when that didn’t work Tianyi added another hundred.
What Tianyi was the least afraid of was using his true qi! In fact if the amount of true qi in his body was expended by fifty percent, his combat prowess might even increase by a hundred percent!
Baoja seeing that the situation wasn’t good for him as Tianyi didn’t seem to be running out of true qi anytime soon abandoned the basket he was on and started to fall towards Tianyi.
Tianyi naturally saw the blurred form of Baoja falling towards him and sent the grey cloud spears at him.
But this time the grey cloud spears didn’t harmlessly pass through Baoja and instead Baoja’s form became clear for a single moment and shone brightly.
BOOOM!!!
Tianyi’s lips once again started to twitch.
“He stopped carpet bombing and instead became the bomb himself? He didn’t die from that suicide bombing, right?”
Tianyi’s worries were unfounded as once the smoke from the explosions cleared, Baoja’s form was revealed and he was still falling towards Tianyi, all the grey cloud spears had been destroyed.
Tianyi instantly retreated with a giant leap as the place he was standing on became charred black from Baoja exploding himself once more.
Baoja only looked a little bit worse for the wear as smudge coated his face and robes.
Tianyi’s heart felt really tired. Not only did he have to deal with a weird pervert in the first round, but the second one was even stranger! He was a pervert with a hobby of blowing himself up.
Tianyi couldn’t see any change in Baoja’s expression but the more Baoja exploded, the brighter his eyes became.
Instantly grey clouds began to disperse from Tianyi’s body until it completely covered him, but it didn’t stop there as the grey cloud grew larger and larger until it formed a grey cloud giant that took up more than thirty percent of the arena.
This was Tianyi’s self invented technique, Inner Outer Reversal Form. To say it nicely, it was just a trick to use one’s qi to form a giant around the user. This technique would quite literally be useless to anyone else, as the expenditure was simply not worth the results.
But it was perfect for Tianyi.
Although Baoja resisted Tianyi’s cloud giant form, his explosions simply didn’t hurt the cloud giant enough and soon he was caught. The grey cloud grinded away at his robes and destroyed their defensive properties, but before the grey cloud’s destructive power could reach Baoja he was thrown outside.
Tianyi sighed as he waited for his next opponent. He seriously regretted coming into the arena so early.
Once he stepped up, all the weirdos started to come to him. He didn’t see these abnormalities in the beginning but once he showed up, they all came out of the woods.
The next person to step up was a man in his early twenties wearing purple robes, a gold coronet, and had a jade fan in his hand. Eight of ten females would fall in love with his looks.
This one at least looks normal and his bearing is great too. But...why do I feel like I’ve seen this from somewhere. Tianyi was sure that the man before him wasn’t a Dragon Emperor clone, because the sense of familiarity didn’t appear.
But Tianyi still felt like he had seen this image somewhere. Seeing that fan reminds me of the fan Sect Master Yun gifted me, maybe I should refine another one?
“I’ll give you one chance, step out before you get hurt under this king’s might.” His voice was regal but there was a strong sense of disconnection with reality.
Tianyi felt like his face would get a cramp from how much his lips twitched in a single day.
“Buzhou Immortal Sect Disciple Xi Tianyi, please advise.” Tianyi cupped his hands half heartedly.
“Hmpf, not knowing what is good for you.” The man folded his fan and clasped his hands behind his back. “I am the crown prince of the Gan Dynasty, Gan Linyou! But others called me the Esteemed Sage Ascendant Soul Venerable sent by the Wise Nascent Trigram Immortal of the Nine Great Heavens**.”
Tianyi felt that his face would be permanently stuck in the dumbfounded expression he currently had. There was so many wrong words in that title that he didn’t even want to think about it.
Tianyi just made a backhand motion and to his absolute not surprise, his Heavenly Suppressing Palm backhanded the Esteemed Sage Ascendant Soul Venerable sent by the Wise Nascent Trigram Immortal of the Nine Great Heavens out of the arena.
When the next person who appeared on the arena was a man without both his arms, Tianyi could only look at the sky and release a sigh.
