Chapter 171: Chapter 109: Lihuo Refining Golden Cicada
The youth had a pair of large hands like cattail leaf fans, feet over a foot long, legs thick as pillars, a waist as wide as a bear, a neck like a wooden stake, a head as big as a basin, black hair hard as steel needles, thick eyebrows over large eyes, a wide mouth, and a square nose.
Qin Ming, holding the Big Spear, had just sent someone flying when he saw the odd-looking youth emerging from the snow-white bamboo forest.
"Great, come over and help!" In fact, Qin Ming didn’t know if the youth was asking him, but replying didn’t cost much; his eyes were nearly bloodshot from killing.
The Golden Armor Guards surrounding them immediately became highly vigilant towards the youth, and even those nearby rushed to attack him first.
The sturdily built youth was no pushover; with a wave of his fan-sized hand, an Outer Saint charging at him was blasted away, smashing into a large bluestone.
"Everybody, let’s not be so hot-tempered. We’ve all enhanced our strength through body transformation, we are alike, so why resort to fighting and killing upon meeting?" The youth was trying to persuade them.
Then, with a slap of his fan-sized hand, he sent another Outer Saint, who had Swung the Blade at him, flying away.
"Thud!"
The Outer Saint that fell in the pristine bamboo forest spat out blood profusely, his face deathly white. Had he not been wearing his body-protective golden armor, he would certainly have been blown to pieces.
"Are you all sick? I’ve already said, don’t be so rash, yet you still charge at me?!" The burly youth was quite frustrated.
With a snap, his right foot, swift as lightning, kicked out and broke a long spear stabbing towards him, sending the spear-wielder flying twenty meters away.
A vast swath of snow-white bamboo was crushed, the spear-wielder who held the broken spear spurting blood, staining many of the white bamboo leaves red, his chest glowing with mysterious patterns.
Evidently, the protective armor had worked, or else his entire body would have been gone, most certainly torn apart by an exceptionally powerful Heavenly Light Force.
"Why can’t we get along a little better in this decisive battle among the Fangwai Core Disciples?" The youth again expressed his discontent.
Next, quick as thunder, he leaned back, slamming the attacker behind him so hard his face contorted, blood oozed from his seven orifices, and he crashed into the clean bamboo forest, unable to rise.
Everyone looked at him differently; he spoke about not being hot-tempered, about being friendly, but his strikes were incredibly heavy. Without special life-saving armor, anyone hit by him would have been shattered.
"Brother, thanks for the aid," Qin Ming spoke up, secretly asking for his name.
"Xiang Yiwu," the large and sturdy youth responded.
Qin Ming had a particularly strong impression of this man due to his distinctive physique.
From head to toe, there wasn’t a part of Xiang Yiwu’s body that wasn’t thick. He was as wide as two people put together—not fat, but exceedingly muscular.
When in Luofu Immortal Town, the two had interacted. Qin Ming had asked him who the Abandoned Disciple of Tathagata was, which one was the Yuqing Power Inheritor, and whether the disciples of the Five Elements Palace were present.
At that time, Xiang Yiwu shook his head, indicating he didn’t know.
Now, Qin Ming seriously suspected that this person was either the Abandoned Disciple of Tathagata or the Yuqing Power Inheritor!
"Brother, I’m not actually a reckless good-for-nothing; it’s all about fate," Xiang Yiwu said while rubbing his hands, somewhat embarrassed.
Standing together now, the two temporarily deterred a group of Golden Armor Guards, surrounding them at the edge of the bamboo forest but not launching any attack.
Even so, that group retreated far away, not daring to come too close.
Qin Ming was naturally aware that a mere acquaintance would not help out of the blue.
He spoke up: "Feel free to mention any needs you have."
Xiang Yiwu nodded: "Brother, you are straightforward, so I’ll be direct. I have seen you fight Cui Chongxuan from a distance, and I greatly admire and desire your unique Jin Technique."
Qin Ming’s pupils shrank slightly; the appetite of this robust youth seemed a little too large.
"Don’t misunderstand, I’m not trying to kick someone when they’re down," Xiang Yiwu waved his hand and said, "I can exchange an equally ranked Cultivation Technique with you. Frankly, I really need the Lihuo Scripture."
Qin Ming was surprised; the sturdy youth had an exceptional insight—he had already integrated the Lihuo Power, yet this person could still recognize it.
Seeing that Qin Ming didn’t deny it, Xiang Yiwu immediately became excited: "Do you really have the Lihuo Scripture? Don’t worry; I won’t let you lose out."
Qin Ming asked, "You should have mastered either the Ru Lai power or the Yuqing Power, right? With such legendary skills, why do you need the Lihuo Scripture?"
Xiang Yiwu admitted frankly, "I practice the Golden Cicada Technique. Currently, I need the Fire Tao Strange Skill to assist me. I have seniors from my sect who have helped me deduce that at this stage, using Lihuo to refine the Golden Cicada is the best option for a metamorphosis and soaring into the sky, and it has the auspicious effect of undergoing Nirvana through fire."
Qin Ming looked at him differently; the skill practiced by this person was definitely not simple, and he had also said that it was just for the current need for the Lihuo Scripture, undoubtedly planning to assimilate other Miracle Techniques in the future.
"My acquaintances call me Golden Cicada," Xiang Yiwu said with a smile.
"Whose side are you on among the Core Disciples?" Qin Ming asked.
"It’s one of the elite disciples; he deceived me, giving me a very ordinary Fire Skill Scripture," Xiang Yiwu said angrily.
"Then forget about him; how about collaborating with me?"
Qin Ming was now very concerned about Li Qingyue as she was being besieged by the Five Core Disciples.
Moreover, from the way this group of people had intercepted him, it was clear that they intended to kill both him and Li Qingyue thoroughly.
Xiang Yiwu nodded: "I’ve already sent that elite disciple away."
Qin Ming was surprised: "Did you kill him?"
Xiang Yiwu shook his head: "I just sent him flying."
Qin Ming realized that this person likely had a significant background, practiced a special skill, and should be strong in the second major realm.
"Help me rescue someone; I’ll give you the Lihuo Scripture!"
"You want me to provoke five Core Disciples? Too dangerous," Xiang Yiwu didn’t agree.
