Chapter 58 - A Nerve

“Wanyi, take the two of them and find a good place to land. Let me deal with them!” Su Lingyun took out her sword as she turned around and said. Her face showed a bloodthirsty look that was not in line with her character.

“Brother Zhou Yun!” Qiao’er felt her body become empty. The spell on her body had been removed by Su Lingyun.

“This way.” Zhou Yun picked Qiao’er up with both hands and flew down on his flying sword, not caring about her blushing face.

Fighting in the outside world consumed too much spiritual energy. He had to be careful.

Furthermore, Zhou Yun did not want Qiao’er to be affected.

“Junior Brother Zhou Yun, over here.” Su Wanyi used her flight spell to lead the way. Zhou Yun followed her and flew to a mountain before stopping.

Just as Zhou Yun put down Qiao’er, whose face was red from happiness, a loud explosion came from the sky behind him.

Boom!

A cloud of black mist exploded in the air, and three black shadows flew out from the black mist. Those three black shadows flew straight in Zhou Yun’s direction.

Each of them exuded a terrifying aura of a heretic cultivator and a intermediate of foundation establishment stage cultivator.

“Defend!” Zhou Yun did not dare to hesitate. He did not hold back the spiritual energy in his body, and a large amount of spiritual energy was poured into the spiritual sword.

“Forward!” Zhou Yun swiped his finger and an extremely sharp Setting Sun Sword Intent attached itself to the body of the spiritual sword.

After Su Lingyun’s reminder, Zhou Yun knew that trash spiritual swords could only be used with manually applied sword intent.

If it was Su Lingyun’s sword, Zhou Yun would only need to infuse his spiritual energy into it and he would be able to control the sword to release Setting Sun Sword Intent.

“The Setting Sun Sword Intent that I’ve infused into it is only enough to activate it ten times! If we can’t finish off the enemy in front of us after ten times, then this basic spiritual sword will be destroyed in battle.” Zhou Yun activated his spiritual sword to face the enemy. His weapon was of low quality, so he had to use his skills to make up for it.

“This is the first time I’m fighting a intermediate of foundation establishment stage heretic cultivator. How strong am I now?” Zhou Yun wondered. He didn’t forget that Meng Fei’ang’s cultivation had broken through to the foundation establishment stage after he had become a heretic cultivator.

Back then, Zhou Yun could only defend himself and not attack.

But now, Zhou Yun had already built his foundation, and he could feel that his strength had increased by quite a bit.

“Command!” The moment Zhou Yun recited the third incantation, the spiritual sword trembled violently.

The next moment, the spiritual sword flew out like a stream of light and instantly collided with the first of the three figures.

For a moment, the sword energy in the sky was bright.

The sun-set sword technique was like the setting sun in the sky, and the surrounding sky was dyed red.

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding with stone came from the air.

Su Wanyi looked at the collision in the sky and could not help but look at Zhou Yun in surprise.

In just over a month, Zhou Yun had surprised her so many times.

Not only could he master the sword control technique, but he could also attach sword intent to it.

Su Wanyi realized that the more she came into contact with Zhou Yun, the more surprises he brought her.

“Brother Zhou Yun, you’re amazing! One of the figures in the sky fell down!” Qiao’er pointed at the sky and shouted excitedly.

Zhou Yun frowned. He had not let his guard down completely.

When he was controlling the spiritual sword, he felt a very strange touch when he collided with the other party.

It was as if he was not slashing at the opponent’s body, but an extremely hard piece of metal.

“I cut off his arm?” Zhou Yun held his spiritual sword in front of him and the three figures finally landed in front of them.

The first figure’s arm had already disappeared, and what was left was an extremely smooth cut.

Zhou Yun realized what his first strike had struck. “It’s not a living person. It’s a spiritual corpse. It’s a spiritual corpse that’s formed by refining the corpses of many mortals. Their bodies are comparable to metal and stone, and every spiritual corpse is extremely powerful. Ordinary late-stage foundation establishment cultivators would have to run away if they encounter them,” Su Wanyi explained. She put away the sword, took out a white medicine bottle from her bag, and dripped a drop of the medicine on the sword.

“The corpse liquid is effective against spiritual corpses. You guys should use it too.” Su Wanyi threw the medicine bottle over. “Spiritual corpses don’t have intelligence. They will only follow orders. If we are careful, we can still hold up against just three spiritual corpses.”

Su Wanyi said seriously, “We just need to wait until Disciple Su annihilates the other party’s leader. If we can drag it out until then, we will win.” She was very confident in the battle in the sky.

Crash!

Just as Zhou Yun was about to take the liquid, the bottle containing the liquid was smashed into pieces by a flying rock in mid-air.

The three spiritual corpses walked forward slowly with mocking expressions on their faces.

Then, the three spiritual corpses charged at the three of them.

Thump, thump, thump!

Each of the three spiritual corpses’ stomps created a huge pit in the ground.

Zhou Yun even suspected that the spiritual beasts in the secret realm would be torn apart by those spiritual corpses if they were around.

“Quickly get ready! There’s someone controlling these spiritual corpses!” Su Wanyi shouted for Zhou Yun and Zhou Ling to stay on alert. Her face was full of anxiety.

A intermediate of foundation establishment stage spiritual corpse that was merely fighting blindly could only be dealt with by a late-stage foundation establishment cultivator. But the spiritual corpses in front of them were being controlled by someone.

“I must protect them!” Su Wanyi’s face turned cold. Just as she was about to raise the sword in her hand, she was attacked by a fierce wind in the next moment.

Su Wanyi’s sword was sent flying by the spiritual corpse within one move.

She clenched her teeth and held her wrist. One attack had shattered the web between her thumb and forefinger, and blood was flowing out.

At that moment, Su Wanyi realized that the spiritual corpse’s body had grown a little bigger. It was as terrifying as a small giant.

Even its aura was rising steadily and was about to reach the late-stage foundation establishment.

“This is not an ordinary spiritual corpse, and the person controlling it is not an ordinary heretic cultivator!” Su Wanyi reminded Zhou Yun as she felt a wave of despair.

If she had not reacted quickly, she would have been killed by the spiritual corpse.

Zhou Yun looked at the two spiritual corpses in front of him. He was nervous as he slowly pulled Qiao’er behind him.

“You guys came here to kill me, right?” Zhou Yun looked at the sky and then at the spiritual corpses that were standing still.

“Is it because of Meng Fei’ang?” Seeing that the spirit corpse did not reply, Zhou Yun continued to speak.

“Meng Fei’ang? Isn’t he the one who became a heretic cultivator?” Qiao’er did not expect Zhou Yun to say that name. Only then did she realize that the three spiritual corpses were all staring at Zhou Yun.

Even after Su Wanyi was sent flying, they did not follow up with another attack. Instead, they surrounded Zhou Yun.

“Don’t even think about laying your hands on Brother Zhou Yun. I’ll protect him!” Qiao’er held her spiritual sword, which was emitting a faint sword Qi.

“Zhou Yun, you are the most talented junior brother I have ever seen. Run quickly and help us take revenge in the future!” Su Wanyi walked to Zhou Yun with a determined expression.

Wuhahaha!

The three spiritual corpses laughed at the same time.

“You want to save them? I can’t…” Just as the spiritual corpses were halfway through their sentence, a red ray of light spread out with Zhou Yun as the center.

The indestructible red light surrounded Zhou Yun, Su Wanyi, and Qiao’er, then spread out to the outside.

Guh!

The head of a spiritual corpse fell off.
