Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 412 - Counterbalance

“I have not much time left now.

It’s such a pity that I only got to see the Nine Jade Palace go down the hill and now, to watch the blood flow of my disciples flow.

How would I be able to visit my ancestors now?”

“太上长老虽如此想,却不打算阻止.”

“Than why not grand elder do anything to stop this tragedy take place?”

万禹太上长老笑了一声:”她受欺压之时,本座冷眼旁观,如今该她举起屠刀,本座又怎好出面?何况,若是能令九瑶宫再度兴起,便是鲜血灌溉又如何?”

Grand Elder Wan Yu shook his head and laughed.

“I did nothing when she was being stepped on.

So what rights do I have to interfere when she decides to do what she’s doing right now?

Moreover, if the price of my disciple lives could make the Nine Jade Palace great again, then it would be worth it.

No?”

付尚清心中一动,脸上笑容慢慢收起.

Fu Shangqing’s heart dropped, as his face fell almost immediately.

…

鲜血飞洒,剑影凌乱.

Blood splatter everywhere and sword shadow is all over the place.

陆明舒呼吸微重,握紧手中剑.

Lu Mingshu gripped onto her sword tightly while trying to catch her breath.

这位祁掌院,果然不可小视.之前她就怀疑,以他的心计,明知她实力过人,为何要选择正面相斗?现在才知道,原来他另有倚仗.

~No wonder.

Courtyard leader Qi is not someone we should look down at.

I was still thinking of the reason why he dared to come against me in this manner instead of being sneaky when he knew I was better than average?

I should have realised he had something to rely on.~

不远处,祁掌院执剑而立,神色轻松.在他的身后,那些被他笼络的长老们,结成一个阵列,道道玄力,从他们身上流出,顺着事先划出的轨迹,导入祁掌院的剑中.

Courtyard leader Qi stood a few meters away from her, looking all relax.

The elders that he have gathered is now standing behind him in a formation, transfusing their mystic force into courtyard leader Qi’s sword.

随着玄力的导入,剑身光芒越发璀璨,流光溢彩,直夺天色.

With the infinite amount of mystic force being transfused to his sword, Courtyard leader Qi’s sword starts to shine so bright that it filled the sky.

宇文师轻嗤一声:”以长辈之尊,还要借助他人之力,这可真是…”

“As an elder and senior, courtyard leader Qi even have to render other’s help.

This is so…” Yu-Wen shi sneered.

“不要脸面?”祁掌院笑眯眯地瞟向他,却是没有半点愧色,”宇文师兄,知道我与你们差在哪里吗?”没等宇文师回答,他就道,”我这人,从来就不自持身份,自高自大.陆师侄实力之强横,相信你我心中有数.明知单人不敌,为了脸面还要与她单打独斗,那是自己找死.”

“Embarrassing?” Courtyard leader Qi glance over at Yu-Wen shi, but there is not even a single sign of remorse.

“Senior brother Yu-Wen, that’s our difference.

I never once see myself as a higher status than anyone here.

Furthermore, I believe that senior brother is aware of how strong Lu Mingshu is.

If I value my pride more than my life, I would go one on one with her.

But life is precious.”

宇文师默然片刻,只得叹服:”祁师弟,这一点,我确实不如你.”

Yu-Wen Shi eyes widen upon hearing Courtyard leader Qi.

~Right, I could never be as good as him in this aspect, able to put down his pride easily.~ “Junior brother Qi, I’m indeed uncomparable to you in this aspect.”

祁掌院微微一笑,看向陆明舒:”陆师侄,你现在认输,还来得及.”

Courtyard leader Qi smiled thinly and look over to Lu Mingshu.

“Junior niece Lu, I’ll give you another chance.

Do you want to surrender?”

陆明舒淡然道:”祁掌院,这话正是师侄想对你说的.现在认输,我或许可以留你性命.”

“That’s what I have been wanting to tell you, courtyard leader Qi.

I’ll let you live if you do so.” Lu Mingshu replied in monotone.

祁掌院闻言,哈哈一笑:”也罢,看来不到死战的那一刻,你我都不愿意认输,那我们就让手中剑来说话吧!”

“Ah, I get it.” Courtyard leader Qi chuckled, hearing Lu Mingshu’s reply.

“Since none of us is willing to concede defeat now, let’s let our swords do the talking, shall we?”

话落,祁掌院身影一闪,已至半空,手中剑骤然亮起,刹那间化出一道道寒意森森的剑气,平铺开来,竟达方圆半里.

In no time Courtyard leader Qi is already in the air, the sword in his hand shining so brightly like a diamond.

Within a split second, sword energy was formed and stared dividing and spreading itself to a radius up to half a mile.

宇文师倒抽一口冷气.这些剑气,根根凝实,如同千万把剑齐出,祁志和敢这样叫板,果然有他的底气.

Yu-Wen shi bit his lips anxiously.

~These sword energy are so solid that they are as if the physical body of the sword right now.

Right, if Qi Zhihe dared to be so arrogant, he do indeed have an incredible skill.~

太府一脉长老郑冲此时也赶到了,不由大惊失色:”这是…祁志和这是要冲击化物了吗?”

At the same time, Zheng Chong have rushed over too.

Seeing the scene unfolding right in front fo him, he stood rooted to the ground.

“I…Qiu Zhihe going to break through the assimilation realm right now?”

宇文师摇了摇头,指向地面:”郑师叔且看,祁师弟这是借的众人之力.”

Yu-Wen Shi shook his head and pointed to the ground.

“Senior uncle Zheng, take a look at this.

He’s making use of the help from other elders.”

郑冲了悟,又看向陆明舒:”以一敌多,也太吃亏了!”

Zheng Chong immediately got what’s going on and shook his head in pity.

“One against so many people, this is so unfair!”

确实吃亏,但,未知陆明舒的应对手段,不好贸然插手.且先等等,看清形势再想想怎么出手相助.

Indeed Lu Mingshu would be at a loss.

But since they are unaware of what Lu Mingshu’s next step is, it’s not a good idea to interfere with their fight in case they make things worse.

祁掌院袖子一挥,万千剑气如雨落下.

Courtyard leader Qi raised his hand and thousand of sword energy drop down to the ground like rain.

陆明舒勾了勾唇,不但没有惊慌,反倒生出一丝兴奋.

Lu Mingshu smirked.

Not only is she not intimidated, she felt excited.

她凝剑胚,化玄力,以剑修之法进入出神,刚刚突破,就站在了本界出神的顶端.九瑶宫这些出神长老,离化物境相差甚远,一个都不是她的对手.她明知道神女祭是个陷阱,还毫不犹豫地踏进来,就是因为相信自己的实力.

She has broken through the spirit realm as a swordsmanship cultivator, which make her being able to stand at the peak oh spirit realm despite her just breaking through.

The Nine Jade Palace spirit realm elders are all way far from the assimilation realm, and none of them are her opponent.

The reason why she chooses to participate in the festival even though she knew about the dangers coming along with it is because she trusts her ability.

殷虹,盛长老,温掌院…一个个都倒下,也就是温掌院引发磁爆给她带来点麻烦,而这并不是靠他自身的实力.

Yin Hong, elder sheng and courtyard leader Wen…Those whom she has defeated is almost nothing to her, except the explosion that courtyard leader Wen brought along with him.

现在,祁掌院终于让她有一种势均力敌的感觉了.剑气如雨,剑意化形,这才是剑修的战斗!

Now facing courtyard leader Qi, she finally felt challenged.

Rain like sword energy and physical manifestation of the sword is how the swordsmanship cultivators would fight like!

陆明舒身上,突然爆开玄光,迅速扩大,直攀而上.

Suddenly, mystic light surround Lu Mingshu and spread out like wildfire.

众人原本以为,她这玄光是护身玄光的升级,不想玄光一触到祁掌院的剑气,骤然化为条条瑞气,发出密集的”叮叮叮”的声音,仿佛剑身相击一般.

Initially, the crowd thought that it was her shield, but surprisingly, when courtyard leader Qi’s came into contact with it, sounds of sword colliding could be heard.

“师兄,这是什么回事?”贺轩不明所以.

“Senior brother, what’s happening?” He Xuan is unable to figure out what’s happening.

宇文师定睛一看,大吃一惊:”这不是护体玄光,而是剑气!”

Yu-Wen shi got a closer look and what he saw made his jaws drop.

“It’s not a shield, but sword energy!”

贺轩先是一愣,仔细一看,果然如此!

He Xuan stared at Yu-Wen shi in disbelief.

He got nearer to have a better look and indeed!

陆明舒释出来其实是剑光,只是这些剑气十分微小,又过于密集,看起来如同玄光一般.这些细小的剑气,遇到祁掌院的剑气,二者立刻展开交战,剑击声不止.

What Lu Mingshu is releasing is sword lights.

Because the sword energy was so small and concentrated, it looks like mystic light from far.

Coming against courtyard leader Qi’s attack, Lu Mingshu’s sword energy counter-attack in no time.

贺轩难以置信,喃喃道:”居然能驾驭如此之多的剑气…”

He Xuan watch the scene in disbelief.

“Wow, she’s able to control so much sword energy at a time…”

本界武修,重力量而无神念这个概念,因此驭剑手法十分粗暴,全凭修为提升而自然提升.而驾驭的剑气越多,对神念的要求越高,所以郑冲一过来,看到祁掌院操纵如此之多的剑气,第一反应就是他的修为已经接近化物了.

In Lu Mingshu’s world, martial artist focuses more on their cultivation more skills, thus courtyard leader Qi along with the elders are not as skilled as Lu Mingshu.

To be able to have control of a huge amount of sword energy, one must be able to have a strong mental state, which only assimilation realm in this world would have.

Thus Zheng Chong thought that courtyard leader Qi was breaking through.

而剑修与武修不同的一点就是,剑修为了驾驭更多的剑气,十分注重神念.陆明舒以剑修的标准来要求自己,神念岂会差了?她操纵剑气,细微精妙,于他们而言,简直闻所未闻.

But the difference between a martial artist and swordsmanship cultivator is that swordsmanship cultivator sees great importance in mental state.

Since Lu Mingshu have been training like one instead of a martial artist, she has a strong mental state currently, which is stringer than any of the elders present would have heard.

“陆师侄在剑道上的天分,真是叫人震惊.”宇文师感慨,既庆幸自己与她是友非敌,也遗憾当初没有收她为徒.不过,话说回来,以自己教徒的方式,教出的就不是这样一个陆明舒了.

“Junior niece Lu is indeed talented in terms fo her swordsmanship.” Yu Wen-shi lament, grateful that Lu Mingshu is a friend and not a foe, but also regretting how he did not take Lu Mingshu in as his disciple back then.

~But if I did, would she be as good as she is now?~

祁掌院也是内心震惊,暗暗庆幸自己,从来都把敌人的实力多估算三分.这也让他对陆明舒手中的秘法更加势在必得.刚刚进入出神,就有这么强大的实力,她得到的传承,该有多么强大?

On the other hand, she gave the courtyard leader Qi a shock too.

He thanked himself secretly in his heart for always overestimated his opponent ~But how strong must the skills that she got from the outside world be to let her be who she is now?~

引动如此之多的剑气,玄力飞快地流失,祁掌院心念一转,原本杀气腾腾的剑雨,忽然气势一变.道道如实质般的透明剑身,突然从中间爆开,化为更细微的玄力,形如万家灯火,更如烟花骤放,灿烂无比.

It was an intense fight, and mystic force was drained out fast.

Courtyard leader Qi look around and an idea popped up in his head.

He withdrew back his sword rain.

The sword energy start flowing to the middle and exploded into thin mystic force as if fireworks.

但这灿烂之下,隐藏的却是极致的杀招.每一道剑气的爆开,都挟带着强大的威力,因为足够密集,直逼方才的磁爆!

It seems glorious, but every explosion is a deadly move.

The explosion is caused by the sword energy, which comes along with strong forces.

Furthermore, it is concentrated, bringing along ten times of its impact.

而与方才不同的是,磁爆发生时,陆明舒尚有路可逃,现下的剑爆,却是将她围得严严实实,毫无退路.

And the only difference between this explosion and the previous electromagnetic explosion is that Lu Mingshu could escape in the previous one.

Now, this, she’s surrounded and there’s nowhere for her to go.
