Chapter 307:1 Have Enough Spiritual Essence (2)

After using the ax twice in a row, Lu Wansong felt a dull pain in his chest. He knew that he had suffered from the backfire, but he couldn’t care less now.

This young man was much more capable than he had expected. If he didn’t do something now, he might fail miserably.

At this moment, Lu Wansong was no longer as confident as before. There was only intense fear and seriousness in his heart.

Facing the dark red ax, Lin Shen continued to deal with it with spiritual essence as usual.

A total of eighteen mouthfuls of spiritual essence shot out and hit the dark red ax. Although it was quickly crushed, the ax shrunk by more than half.

The remaining force landed on Lin Shen’s body. Golden light flashed, effortlessly blocking the attack.

The corners of Lu Wansong’s eyes twitched as he became even more envious.

Other cultivators were meticulous about spiritual essence, but this young man had so much spiritual essence from his first-grade spirit meridian that he didn’t care about the changes in techniques and only used the sheer quantity of spiritual essence to counterattack.

On second thought, this young man had just advanced and hadn’t even converted the Five Elements spiritual essence, let alone cultivated Dharmic cultivation techniques. It was normal for him to do so.

Rather than saying that he didn’t want to use the Dharmic techniques with his spiritual essence, it was more accurate to say that he couldn’t do it.

If not for this, Lu Wansong knew it would have been even harder for him to defeat this young man.

“Fortunately, his spiritual essence is almost exhausted!”

Lu Wansong calculated carefully. From the beginning of the battle, this young man had used at least thirty-six mouthfuls of spiritual essence.

More than half of the remaining nine mouthfuls of spiritual essence were gone because of the damage to the flying sword.

No matter how much spiritual essence was condensed from a first-grade spirit meridian, there couldn’t be more than 45 mouthfuls of them.

The remaining nine mouthfuls of spiritual essence were nothing to be afraid of!

Although Lu Wansong only had twelve mouthfuls of spiritual essence left in his body, he felt that was enough to handle Lin Shen.

Thinking of this, Lu Wansong felt relieved, and a cold smile appeared on his face again.

As a bystander, Miao You had witnessed the entire battle and understood the situation of the two of them. Soon, she realized this, and her expression changed.

“Oh no, Lin Shen’s spiritual energy is almost used up!”

Miao You were anxious.

Lin Shen was at a disadvantage because his spiritual essence had yet to be converted and he had yet to cultivate the adequate technique. If Lu Wansong used a mouthful of spiritual essence, Lin Shen would have to use at least two mouthfuls to fight back.

No matter how much spiritual essence there was in a first-grade spirit meridian, it couldn’t keep up with that speed.

“Let’s see how you can fight back not. Brat, you’re dead!”

Amidst his complacent laughter, Lu Wansong spat out the deadiron spiritual essence again.

Miao You exclaimed involuntarily when she saw this, but Lin Shen’s expression was calm, and a hint of mockery flashed across his eyes.

Under Miao You’s astonished gaze, he spat out five mouthfuls of spiritual essence in a row, annihilating all the incoming deadiron spiritual essence.

Seeing this, Lu Wansong opened his eyes widely as if he had seen a ghost.

“How… how can you still have spiritual essence?!”

He could tell that the five mouthfuls of spiritual essence that Lin Shen had spat out were pure and intact without any depletion.

But that shouldn’t be the case. The forty-five mouthfuls of spiritual essence were either annihilated or used up. How could there be any pure spiritual essence left?

Lu Wansong was puzzled.

Suddenly, a shocking thought flashed through his mind.

Was it possible that his young man had far more than 45 mouthfuls of spiritual essence?

Lu Wansong couldn’t help but be shocked by this thought.

The maximum number of spirit meridians was 45. This was a fact recognized by all cultivators.

Until now, no one had ever condensed more spirit meridians than that.

“Or maybe he’s cultivating some kind of technique that can recover spiritual essence quickly! That’s right! That must be it!”

It was as if Lu Wansong had grasped onto the last hope of survival. He repeatedly confirmed his thoughts.

However, Miao You didn’t think so.

Lin Shen had only advanced for less than half a day. How could he have cultivated a cultivation technique that could quickly recover his spiritual essence?

Even if he did, he wouldn’t be able to recover his spiritual essence in such a short time.

Even consuming medicinal pills wouldn’t have such an effect.

If that wasn’t the case, then the answer was obvious.

The spirit meridian forged by Lin Shen was above grade one. It was an unprecedented grade!

After thinking this through, Miao You couldn’t help but take a deep breath. The way she looked at Lin Shen was filled with shock.

She really couldn’t imagine what kind of achievements Lin Shen would have in the future if he had a spirit meridian that exceeded grade one.

For a moment, Miao You couldn’t help but stand stunned on the spot, feeling adrift.

While Miao You and Lu Wansong were in shock, Lin Shen had no intention of stopping.

After annihilating the deadiron spiritual essence, he didn’t use any Dharma treasures, martial techniques, or spells. Instead, he continued to spit out spiritual essence to attack Lu Wansong.

As a matter of fact, there was no need to use anything else. He had 108 mouthfuls of spiritual essence, which was more than enough to crush Lu Wansong.

Seeing the spiritual essence coming at him again, Lu Wansong paled. He let out a low shout, and a stream of white mist gushed out of his sleeve, mixed with a faint golden-red light.

This was Lu Wansong’s second and last profound armament, named Black Tortoise Essence. It was refined from the turtle shell of a thousand-year-old turtle and thousand-year-old black iron.

Although it was in the form of mist, it had an extremely powerful defense ability.

Lu Wansong pinched his fingers together and made a hand seal. Golden-red light flashed in the mist, forming a shadow that looked like the shell of a turtle.

The surging spiritual essence hit it, and it rumbled like a bronze hammer hitting a bell. The Black Tortoise Essence trembled slightly, and then it stood still.

Lu Wansong heaved a sigh of relief.

He didn’t have much spiritual essence left. If he used it again, Lin Shen might destroy him with his spiritual essence.

Once he ran out of spiritual essence, he would be at the mercy of his opponent.

He only had enough spiritual essence to control the Dharma treasure for self-protection.

“The situation is disadvantageous to me. At this point, I can only retreat and save my life first. Miao You is under his protection. I’m not a match for him alone. I should go back and report my lord, then get reinforcements to kill this brat!”

As a third-level Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator master, Lu Wansong was extremely angry and humiliated to be forced into such a sorry state by a junior who had just advanced to a cultivator master.

However, the situation wasn’t looking good for him. He wasn’t a match for this young man. He could only go back and get reinforcements.

“The next time we meet, 1 will definitely extract your primordial spirit!”

Lu Wansong looked at Lin Shen coldly, wanting to retreat by using the Black Tortoise Essence.

Miao You and Lu Wansong had fought many times, so she was familiar with the latter’s tricks. She immediately saw through Lu Wansong’s intention to escape and shouted, “He wants to escape! Stop him!”

She knew very well the power behind Lu Wansong. Once Lu Wansong escaped and went back to get reinforcements, they might have to face a late-phase Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator master next time!

Lin Shen had long seen through Lu Wansong’s little plan, and he opened his mouth calmly.

In an instant, more than 20 balls of spiritual essence gushed out, almost dyeing the entire sky green.

Miao You froze on the spot.

Lu Wansong was also in a daze. His mouth was wide open, and he couldn’t speak. There was only one thought lingering in his mind.

How much spiritual essence did this young man have?

Whoosh!

Before Lu Wansong could figure it out, the spiritual essence had already fallen from the sky like a meteor rain!

The Black Tortoise Essence could easily block a mouthful of spiritual essence and maybe as many as seven or eight mouthfuls. However, more than twenty mouthfuls were far beyond its limit!

With a rumble, the turtle shell shattered, and the fog dissipated.

Lu Wansong grunted and took quite a few steps back. When he looked up again, he realized that Lin Shen was less than two meters away from him.

“Spare…”

Lu Wansong’s expression changed drastically. He opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but as soon as he spoke, Lin Shen had already poked his forehead with his finger. The spiritual essence instantly killed Lu Wansong.

Then, the spiritual essence twisted and crushed Lu Wansong’s primordial spirit.

At the level of a cultivator master, even if the primordial spirit left one’s body, it could survive for a short period of time.

As for low-level cultivators, once the physical body died, the primordial spirit would dissipate within a few seconds.

Because of that, there were mystic techniques for preserving primordial spirits and using them to escape among cultivator masters.

There were even methods to reincarnate a primordial spirit.

Although such methods often had all sorts of side effects, there were still many cultivator masters who flocked to them.

After all, who didn’t want to live another life?

As Lu Wansong died, the surroundings returned to silence.

Miao You looked at the empty space in front of her in a daze. She felt like she had fallen into a dream and couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time..
