Chapter 432 Sword Techniques That Can Cut Through Everything!
No matter how good the crystal puppet's sword technique, Tang Li Xue was sure that the crystal puppet could not get out from Flame of Pride's encirclement.
Tang Li Xue carefully controlled the deep-blue [Flame Wall], and it started to approach the crystal puppet from all sides.
The crystal puppet raised its crystal sword and began to spin while waving its sword around.
As if Tang Li Xue's deep-blue [Flame Wall] was stirred by the crystal sword's movements, the deep-blue [Flame Wall] started to spin too and dispersed bit by bit.
Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in amazement at the crystal puppet's magnificent sword technique.
"Is that crystal sword really a normal sword and not a treasure?! Do you really mean it can even do something like that with only a normal sword?! You must be kidding with me!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue must admit that this crystal puppet was truly formidable, but it did not mean she would give up just like that and let the crystal puppet did whatever it wants!
Tang Li Xue added more and more of her deep-blue Flame of Pride, then used it to maintain the [Flame Wall].
What she has currently done was the same as adding the oil into the fire so it would not get extinguished.
Tang Li Xue also put all of her focus to control the [Flame Wall], so it would not get dispersed by the crystal puppet's sword technique.
Meanwhile, the crystal puppet kept spinning while swinging its sword to disperse the deep-blue flames around it.
It was truly a fierce battle. The Flame of Pride could not approach the crystal puppet, but the temperature of Tang Li Xue's Flame of Pride was too high for the crystal puppet to handle.
The deep-blue Flame of Pride slowly roasted the crystal puppet without touching it and after ten minutes or so had passed, the body of the crystal puppet could no longer withstand the searing heat and crumbled apart into crystal dust.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief while muttered: "Sigh… With this, I already defeat half of the crystal puppets. I only need to defeat two more."
After a few moments, the third crystal puppet jumped out from another set of mysterious ancient murals engraved on another crystal wall.
The first crystal puppet was using a standard crystal sword, and the second crystal puppet was using a flexible crystal sword.
Different from the previous two crystal puppets, the third crystal puppet was using a bigger crystal sword.
The big crystal sword that the third crystal puppet was currently wielding was almost as tall as itself.
The third crystal puppet did not wait patiently for Tang Li Xue to prepare herself like the second crystal puppet and immediately swung down its heavy-looking big sword vertically toward Tang Li Xue.
After she fought against the previous two powerful crystal puppets, Tang Li Xue did not dare to look down on this third crystal puppet.
Tang Li Xue quickly used [Snow Dance Step] to dodge the crystal puppet's big sword attack and created some distance with the crystal puppet.
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Who knew that the ground shook violently when the crystal puppet's big sword struck the crystal tiles on the ground.
The attack from the crystal puppet split several extremely hard crystal tiles and left a deep crease on the ground that extended for several meters forward.
Tang Li Xue almost tripped and tumbled down because of the tremor on the ground.
Her expression turned pale in an instant when she realized how powerful the sword attack from this third crystal puppet.
Tang Li Xue no longer dared to fight this third crystal puppet head-on in the close range, so she decided to use the previous strategy she used to defeat the second crystal puppet again.
[Flame Arrows]!
Tang Li Xue created twelve [Flame Arrows] from her Flame of Pride in an instant and shot them towards the third crystal puppet from all directions.
The third crystal puppet spun its body and forcefully swung its big crystal sword 360 degrees.
BANG… BANG… BANG… BANG… BANG… BANG…
All Tang Li Xue's twelve [Flame Arrows] were cut by the third crystal puppet's big sword, but all of those were only a distraction.
[Flame Wall]!
The scorching deep-blue [Flame Wall] rise from all sides, encircled the third crystal puppet from all directions at once.
Tang Li Xue clapped her palms and the scorching deep-blue [Flame Wall] began to approach the third crystal puppet from all sides.
The third crystal puppet jumped while twisting its waist on mid-air and brandishing its big crystal sword horizontally.
In that instant, the deep-blue [Flame Wall] was split in two before extinguished.
It was truly a strange scene to behold… How could the deep-blue [Flame Wall] and the surrounding sea of deep-blue flames split in two at once then get extinguished in one slash?!
However, Tang Li Xue could faintly feel that her control over her Flame of Pride was actually got 'cut' by that single slash too.
"What the hell is that slash?! Don't tell me this crystal puppet's sword techniques are more powerful and profound than the previous crystal puppet?! Damn it! Then how could I win against the fourth crystal puppet later on?!" Tang Li Xue groaned in frustration.
After extinguishing all of Tang Li Xue's deep-blue Flame of Pride, the third crystal puppet fearlessly strode toward Tang Li Xue with the big crystal sword in its grasp.
Tang Li Xue anxiously used her [Snow Dance Step] to run from the third crystal puppet and approached the mysterious ancient murals where this third crystal puppet came out from.
Although Tang Li Xue did not really understand the ancient language written on these ancient murals, but she could still understand a bit from the pictures engraved there.
Although Tang Li Xue did not understand the ancient language written on these ancient murals, but she could still understand a bit from the pictures engraved there.
[From simplicity to complex, then from complex back again to simplicity]...
Without any fancy moves...
[Sword Technique that focused solely on Sword Intent]...
[One slash can cut through everything]...
[Wielding something heavy as if wielding something light]...
[Paragon Sword Technique]!
Tang Li Xue's lips twitched violently. She was still oblivious about anything related to sword techniques, but she was not a fool.
Just from looking at these pictures of sword techniques, she could already feel that this sword technique was far from ordinary.
But Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she peeked on the pictures of sword techniques.
Although, the third crystal puppet's sword techniques were the most fearsome among all, but it was not unfathomable like the second crystal puppet's sword techniques.
The keyword to defeat it was 'from complex back again to simplicity'.
Since the moves were simple, then it was easier to predict!
Tang Li Xue was no longer hesitating and immediately used her [Water Mirage].
Tang Li Xue's slender figure was split into four, then from four to eight, and so on…
After Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] was split into twenty-four, they started to scatter everywhere to avoid the third crystal puppet.
The third crystal puppet swung its big crystal sword around until it created a sword wave that split even the surrounding air and sound!
PUFF… PUFF… PUFF… PUFF… PUFF… PUFF…
Nine of Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] was cut in two in that instant.
Those nine [Water Mirages] burst out like bubbles and turned back into the water.
The third crystal puppet kept swinging its big crystal sword, and the sword waves from it cut Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] again and again.
But Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] kept splitting, and the number kept increasing too!
Unfortunately, the third crystal puppet was cutting Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] faster, so all of Tang Li Xue's [Water Mirages] vanished in only a few moments.
When the third crystal puppet found the real Tang Li Xue, it swung its big crystal sword vertically as if it wanted to cut Tang Li Xue in two from above her head.
"Damn it! This third crystal puppet is really too strong! Even [Water Mirage] cannot stall enough time for me! But this should be enough, right?" Tang Li Xue complained, but then she slowly raised the deep-blue ball of flame hovering on the palm of her hand.
[Spiral Sphere Bomb]!
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have enough time to compress more of her Flame of Pride into this [Spiral Sphere Bomb], so its explosive power should be much weaker than the one she used against the gigantic skeleton before.
But it should be enough since the crystal puppet was quite fragile!
Just when the third crystal puppet's big sword almost slashed onto Tang Li Xue's head, Tang Li Xue suddenly threw the [Spiral Sphere Bomb] onto its body!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Earth-shattering explosion occurred when Tang Li Xue's [Spiral Sphere Bomb] struck the third crystal puppet's body.
The third crystal puppet's body was shattered into crystal dust in an instant while Tang Li Xue herself was thrown off backward because of the terrifying explosion wave.
Her body crashed heavily onto the crystal wall behind her until she coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Luckily, the deep-blue Flame of Pride could not hurt her, or she would already turn into nothingness under its extremely high temperature, but she still got injured quite heavily because of the terrifying explosion wave.
Tang Li Xue actually could throw [Spiral Sphere Bomb] from the distance, but she was afraid that her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] would get cut and neutralize by the third crystal puppet again like her [Flame Wall] and [Flame Arrows].
Well... At least, she finally managed to defeat the third crystal puppet.
It was a risky gamble since Tang Li Xue would definitely die if the third crystal puppet's big sword cut her in two first.
Fortunately, the third crystal puppet's sword techniques were rather simple compared to the second crystal puppet, so Tang Li Xue could predict it easily and counterattack.
