Chapter 1262 - I really want to paste the holy light on your face
However, it was already too late for Song Shuhang to wonder why.
The virtuous lamia immediately protected him as best she could.
‘Rip~’
The cold holy light blade penetrated the body of the virtuous lamia.
Fortunately, the virtuous lamia had yet to take off the flat imperial hat, and was still in her empress mode. As such, the blade could not break through her defenses.
The two sides were in a stalemate.
Song Shuhang activated his ‘saber intent armor’ as fast as he could and attached it to the virtuous lamia to strengthen her defenses.
Song Shuhang thought, I have to deal with this thing. Otherwise, the big-eyed planet might be able to use this cold holy light blade to ascertain our coordinates and reopen another spatial channel, and that would be quite troublesome.
The Inner World then gathered millions of roots and had them pierce into the cold holy light.
This cold holy light had already lost its connection with the ‘big-eyed planet’, and was merely attacking Song Shuhang on instinct.
However, when the Inner World’s roots closed in on the cold holy light, they would be repelled. It was apparent that the roots were getting restrained by the cold holy light.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Slash it apart with the Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique.”
Song Shuhang stretched out his hand, and the virtuous lamia handed Scarlet Heaven Sword to him. At the same time, she fiercely slammed her tail, pushing away the cold holy light blade.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Annihilate it!”
Song Shuhang’s wrist turned, and the Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique erupted.
At this moment, the sharp blade the cold holy light had transformed into came straight for Song Shuhang once again.
Scarlet Heaven Sword welcomed it while the saber intent burst out.
“Ding!”
The two crashed. However, the cold holy light was not damaged by the flames of the Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique. It merely paused slightly before sliding along Scarlet Heaven Sword and shooting straight for Song Shuhang.
The virtuous lamia quickly took Song Shuhang back. At the same time, she flicked her fingers continuously, sending out dozens of blades to strike the blade made of holy light.
“Clang, clang, clang~”
The holy light blade retreated again and again. This time, the holy light blade was broken apart bit by bit.
Wondering, Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “The Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique was ineffective? Yet, an attack purely made of saber intent seemed to work?”
Just a short while ago, their joint ‘Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique’ with the virtuous lamia had clearly suppressed the cold holy light.
Could it be that… the virtuous lamia was what made the attack effective?
Song Shuhang also thought of this.
He gave Scarlet Heaven Sword back to the virtuous lamia, and shouted, “Let’s do this!”
The lamia received the sword, waved it a few times, and slashed out several blades of saber intent—Scarlet Heaven Sword must have been a saber in its previous life. It truly seemed that it was just born into the wrong object in this life. Although it was a sword, it could still be enhanced with saber intent.
Sure enough, the lamia’s attack could restrain the ‘cold holy light’, and even her ordinary slashes could shave off and dissipate parts of it.
The virtuous lamia took advantage of the situation and gave chase. She would continuously flick her left hand to send out small strands of saber qi, while her right hand brandished Scarlet Heaven Sword, sending out a half-moon strand of saber qi every time it was used.
The blade of holy light was completely suppressed. It was forced to the forging table and ended up getting pressed against it. The virtuous lamia’s blade continued to wildly bombard the blade.
The blade of holy light continued to dissipate…
It was only a matter of time before it was completely destroyed.
Scarlet Heaven Sword laughed, and said, “Haha, I see, so this cold holy light is restrained by the power of virtue!”
Song Shuhang asked, “Then, does that mean that the righteous holy light can restrain it? That holy light has a lot in common with the power of virtue.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “You aren’t a Holy Knight, how in the world are you supposed to get that holy light?”
Song Shuhang replied, “I can still use a bit of holy light.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword curiously asked, “Do you also practice Holy Knight cultivation techniques?”
Song Shuhang proudly said, “I haven’t practiced them, but I do know a rather special sword technique. This is the only sword technique that I have ever mastered.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “Although you seem to be very proud of it, when I heard you say ‘the only sword technique I have ever mastered’, only a bleak feeling filled my heart.”
“…There’s no need to nitpick,” Song Shuhang said.
After saying that, Song Shuhang transferred over the ‘invisible saber insect’.
“Watch well, I shall show you my sword technique. ❮Holy Light Sword Technique❯ first form: Evil Slashing Holy Light Sword.” Song Shuhang moved and urged the sword technique.
With a serious look on his face, he recited the appropriate sword mnemonic. “Holy light, destroy the evil enemy before me!”
“Pffft~” Scarlet Heaven Sword couldn’t stop itself from bursting out laughing.
Song Shuhang said, “Senior, don’t laugh. I don’t like doing this, but reciting this sword formula can enhance the power of the sword technique since I haven’t figured out the principles behind it yet. Normally speaking, I would have only had recited it in my mind, but today, there aren’t any outsiders anyway, so I just said it out loud.”
After saying that, he tightly held the saber in his hands and fiercely slashed down on the cold holy light.
Dazzling holy light emerged from his saber, turning into a blade that slashed at the cold holy light.
“Crack~”
Song Shuhang’s ‘Evil Slashing Holy Light Sword’ became the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
The cold holy light completely burst apart, dissipating into smoke.
The virtuous lamia stopped slashing out with saber qi.
Song Shuhang ordered, “Inner World, scan the whole world and see if there are any remnants of the cold holy light.”
Before this, the cold holy light had been able to conceal itself from everyone’s senses, and even the ‘Inner World’ had not detected its existence.
Without the virtuous lamia protecting him, Song Shuhang could have lost his life.
The Inner World conducted a self-scan.
After a while, it reported back to Song Shuhang. It had determined that there was no longer any ‘cold holy light’ within the Inner World.
It was only the forging table that was slightly strange.
Song Shuhang warned, “Be careful of the forging table.”
The virtuous lamia raised Scarlet Heaven Sword and condensed saber intent.
On the forging table, the prototype of the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior Gloves’ created from the Eighth Stage whale bone exuded a layer of light of virtue. Since Sage Monarch Melon Eater had a body of virtue, his bones contained a terrifying amount of power of virtue.
This was a power that could restrain the ‘cold holy light’.
At this time, the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior Gloves’ created from whale bone had its palms facing up and fingers clenched. In the palms of these gloves, there was a mass of holy light unceasingly attempting to struggle out of the gloves’s grasp.
The holy light exuded a cold aura… but also exuded a warm and pure light.
It was the cold holy light, but it had changed.
“What happened?” Song Shuhang’s eyes widened.
Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “I’m afraid that that sword technique of yours caused a change in the cold holy light. It now seems to have the characteristics of both normal holy light and cold holy light.
Song Shuhang asked, “Is that a good thing?”
Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “Who knows?”
Song Shuhang said, “I guess I’ll ask Senior White to check it out.”
“Isn’t that Senior White still in the main world?” Scarlet Heaven Sword wondered.
“I meant the other ‘beep, beep~’… Tsk, it was censored again.” The corners of Song Shuhang’s mouth twitched, and then he tried calling out to Senior White Two in his mind.
Senior White Two asked, “What’s the matter?”
Song Shuhang said, “I’ve got two things I want to talk about. Firstly, when I found the complete volume of the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique ‘, it included the forging technique for the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure.’ The other thing is that there is an interesting holy light in front of me. Senior White, would you like to see if it is a treasure? I can even give it to you if you want.”
This time, it was thanks to the help of Senior White Two that the Inner World was able to upgrade in time. Therefore, Song Shuhang also wanted to repay Senior White Two.
Senior white said, “Oh, not bad. Alright, you wait for a bit, I’ll send No. 2 to you to take the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure’ forging technique. At that time, I’ll make sure to give you something good in return. As for the second thing… If you hadn’t been so sincere about this, I would have really wanted to paste that holy light on your face.
“Holy light is something that is completely incompatible with me. In my case, that holy light of yours is no different from feces. If I were to see a very interesting piece of shiet and offered it to you, would you want it? If you still dare to send me any holy light in the future, I’ll immediately send you the feces of the Violent Black Dragon King.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
“This is why I said what I said earlier… Recently, you have been too casual with me. I am the ruler of the Netherworld Realm’s demons.” Senior White Two sighed.
Recently, his dignity as the ruler of the Netherworld had really become too low. He would really have to consider causing a big commotion just to increase the level of his dignity.
Song Shuhang: “…”
Senior White Two added, “Deal with that holy light yourself. In addition, your glabella is a bit dark today, go and have your fate divined when you have the time. I feel that your luck won’t be good today.”
Song Shuhang burst into tears. “There’s no need for me to look for someone to divine for me, I already feel that I am really unfortunate today.”
If he were to go and look for Senior Copper Trigram to get a divination, that divination would probably be a good one.
“It’s good that you’re mentally prepared, see you later.” Senior White Two yawned.
❄️❄️❄️
After finishing up with Senior White Two, Song Shuhang rubbed his eyebrows.
Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “You just contacted ‘beep beep’?”
It had already guessed that the ‘beep beep’ should be related to Senior White, and the same went for the sudden appearance of that Buddhist Ape.
Song Shuhang said, “Yeah. By the way, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, do you think my glabella looks black?”
Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have even noticed. Today, your glabella is as black as it could be. It was already quite dark a few days ago, but it’s even darker today.”
Song Shuhang sighed, and said, “How unfortunate.”
Looking back on the past few days, he really had been quite unfortunate ever since the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion was transferred to the Beast Realm. If it were not for his tenacious vitality, he would have long been dead.
Scarlet Heaven Sword reminded him, “You have to be a bit more careful now, with your glabella looking like this, perhaps—”
Before it could even finish what it was saying, Song Shuhang suddenly tripped on flat ground.
“F*ck, did I trip on flat ground?” Song Shuhang hurriedly stretched out his hand on the ground and jumped up.
Fortunately, I’ve already practiced for a fair bit by now; with all said and done, I’m now a Fourth Stage cultivator, and I have quick reflexes. As long as I don’t get distracted, something like tripping on flat ground would be impossible, Song Shuhang said in his mind.
Scarlet Heaven Sword shouted, “Shuhang, be careful!”
After Song Shuhang jumped up from the ground, the place where he seemed to be going to land was right at the forging table where the strange holy light was.
“F*ck.” Song Shuhang also saw this.
He willed it, and two black lotuses appeared under his feet.
He stepped on the black lotus and took advantage of them to jump once more to elegantly avoid the crisis.
Be cool, move fast, that’s the way to go!
