Chapter 81

Seeing this, both of their faces darkened.

Qin Sang took a step forward, and the young man in the tight-fitting clothes immediately retreated, then drew his bow and shot another arrow. Qin Sang had no choice but to raise his sword to counter it.

Above the rift, one after another rainbow light appeared, and the chi dragon formed by the cold white aura repeatedly dissipated and reformed. Neither of them could gain the upper hand.

Qin Sang had also tried to launch two Yin Thunderbolts and some ice spikes, but the young man in the tight-fitting clothes easily dodged them. He couldn't even get close to the young man.

One after another spirit arrows were shot, and the young man's archery skills were excellent. Qin Sang couldn't find an opportunity to run, and at such a distance, the Purple Soul Bell was of no use.

Qin Sang clearly felt his spiritual energy being consumed at an alarming rate, but he didn't even have the chance to absorb spirit stones to replenish it.

However, Qin Sang had long noticed that the speed at which the treasure bow condensed spirit arrows was also slowing down.

The young man in the tight-fitting clothes was one level higher in cultivation, but this treasure bow required frequent condensation of spiritual energy into arrows, which consumed much more spiritual energy than the Chi Dragon Sword.

If the stalemate continued, the advantage would be on his side.

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, Qin Sang's eyes suddenly narrowed. He saw the young man in the tight-fitting clothes smirk after shooting an arrow, quickly reach into his storage bag, and pull out a jade bottle. Inside the bottle were two pills that Qin Sang didn't recognize.

The young man swallowed one without hesitation. His face, which had been pale from overexerting his spiritual energy, gradually regained its color. He then looked at Qin Sang with a mocking expression.

Pills that could restore spiritual energy!

Seeing this, Qin Sang couldn't help but curse inwardly. This person's resources were too deep.

This treasure bow was definitely a top-tier magical artifact, and he could take out two precious spirit pills without a second thought, swallowing them without any sign of regret.

Is this a wandering cultivator?

The young man's continuous arrows forced Qin Sang to stay, making it impossible for him to escape. Qin Sang knew that if this continued, he would have no chance of gaining an advantage, and his eyes began to shift uncertainly.

At this moment, the young man suddenly let out a light shout, and his hands surged with overwhelming spiritual energy, all of which poured into the treasure bow.

The treasure bow suddenly burst into light. The young man raised the bow high, his eyes glaring at Qin Sang, his arm veins bulging as he pulled the bowstring, instantly condensing three massive spirit arrows!

"Kill!"

With a roar, the three spirit arrows shot out, breaking through the air and merging into one in mid-air.

The wind stirred by the spirit arrows rushed toward Qin Sang, and the whistling sound seemed to carry a hint of thunder, shaking the heavens. The terrifying momentum far exceeded that of the previous arrows, reaching him in an instant.

Qin Sang's heart was filled with alarm, and his body hair stood on end. The speed of this arrow was too fast, and he had no time to dodge.

Qin Sang gripped the Chi Dragon Sword with both hands, no longer distracted, and focused all his attention on the sword, using all his strength to strike.

The cold aura on the Chi Dragon Sword was instantly drained, and the sword and Qin Sang's face both turned an abnormal pale color.

The body of the chi dragon had grown twice its original size, resembling a true dragon, facing any challenge without fear, rising up!

The chi dragon's mouth opened wide, and its roar shook the heavens as it swallowed the spirit arrow whole.

A seven-colored rainbow light suddenly appeared inside the chi dragon's body, oscillating continuously, seemingly in conflict with the cold aura, but unable to break through it.

It appeared that the chi dragon had the upper hand.

This greatly surprised the young man in the tight-fitting clothes, and he couldn't help but frown.

On the other side, Qin Sang's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly held the Chi Dragon Sword in front of his face.

The next moment, a loud "boom" echoed, and the chi dragon exploded, the cold aura that formed its body shattering into countless fragments, and an endless cold wind sweeping in all directions. The sides of the rift seemed to instantly enter winter, with ice forming on the plants.

The spirit arrow, though much dimmer than before, still had some power left. It appeared in front of Qin Sang in a flash and hit the Chi Dragon Sword directly.

Fortunately, he had acted quickly. Qin Sang felt a powerful force hit him, and his arms shook. The Chi Dragon Sword let out a crisp sound, which seemed a bit off.

Qin Sang had no time to worry about this and used the force to fly back, then rode the Wind of Void and turned to escape.

The young man, not letting up, raised his bow again and aimed at Qin Sang. He dodged the first arrow, and just as he was about to shoot the second, the spirit arrow hadn't even fully formed when it dissipated. He quickly checked the treasure bow and saw that most of the gems had lost their luster, and some even had faint cracks.

The young man grunted in anger, fiercely shaking his arm, and looked at the rapidly fleeing Qin Sang with a face full of hatred. He then put the treasure bow back into his storage bag, took out a pair of slender and long swords, and summoned a green leaf.

The green leaf was like a bamboo leaf, emerald green, and grew in the wind. The young man leaped onto the green leaf and pursued Qin Sang relentlessly, his speed no slower than the Wind of Void.

The mirror array was not far from the entrance of the valley. Qin Sang rode the wind and soon arrived.

The young man followed closely, and when he saw Qin Sang's speed slow down, he thought Qin Sang's spiritual energy was exhausted and couldn't control the magical artifact. A hint of joy appeared on his face, but suddenly, copper mirrors on the ground flipped, spewing out black gas. The young man's face was filled with shock and anger as he fell into the mirror array trap.

The mist barrier formed by the mirror array "pounded" and the copper mirrors trembled, emitting a crisp sound, indicating that the young man inside was fiercely counterattacking.

Qin Sang held the Enchanting Spirit Mirror, his expression tense. Once he finally completed the mirror array and the copper mirrors flew above it to cover it, the mirror array stabilized.

Qin Sang let out a long breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he had been prepared; otherwise, facing such a strong enemy, he would have had no choice but to flee.

Letting the young man struggle in the mirror array, Qin Sang suddenly remembered something and hurriedly checked the Chi Dragon Sword. This look immediately darkened his face.

A prominent crack had appeared on the side of the Chi Dragon Sword's hilt!

Whether it was by coincidence or because the Chi Dragon Sword was inherently fragile, a top-tier magical artifact had been so easily damaged.

Qin Sang's eyes flickered. The Chi Dragon Sword didn't seem to be completely broken, but he didn't dare use it again before it was repaired. A broken sword was a small matter, but if it broke during a fight, his life could be in danger.

Putting the Chi Dragon Sword back into his storage bag, Qin Sang glared at the mirror array. Thinking about a top-tier magical artifact being destroyed by this person, he felt a surge of anger. He immediately sat down cross-legged, held a spirit stone, and summoned the Black Wood Sword.
