Chapter 1929 The Rainbow Sword Master Who Guards Auspiciousness! The martial world has entered a new era!
"Qilin blood! It must be Qilin blood!"
A thunderbolt seemed to strike Black Tiger's mind, and in an instant he "understood" everything.
Besides Qilin blood, what else could have such a miraculous effect?
Can it restore a person's injuries to their original state instantly, or even improve them further?
Yes! That must be it! Otherwise, how can we explain that this young man, despite his young age, possesses such profound skill and such divine swordsmanship?
It can even contend with the demonic power that I have cultivated for decades.
Although it has never been heard that Qilin blood can increase comprehension, who can be sure that it doesn't?
Upon thinking of this, his gaze involuntarily drifted to the little Qilin, who was being protected by the white cat and Tiaotiao not far away, and the greed and madness in his eyes were almost overflowing.
Yes, it must be that during the years they spent with the Qilin, they used the Qilin's blood to create a divine medicine, and they themselves took it more than once.
If the white cat's son can have such skills, then what about the white cat herself?
Although based on his understanding of White Cat and his identity as the "Master of the Rainbow Sword," he felt that White Cat would not do such a thing, but if it were to oppose him, or for the so-called "common people," would this guy change his principles?
Besides, if he hadn't absorbed the blood of the Qilin and advanced further, why would he have allowed his son to fight him? Wasn't he afraid of dying at his hands?
Once the seed of doubt is planted, it grows wildly.
The more Black Tiger thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. The jealousy, greed, and anger at being betrayed and suppressed intertwined in his heart, almost burning away his reason.
"So that's how it is! You've been consuming Qilin blood all along! You were just pretending!"
He gritted his teeth, his voice hoarse with resentment.
Rainbow Cat had no idea what kind of drama was unfolding in Black Heart Tiger's mind. He only felt that the other's aura became more frenzied and chaotic in an instant, and the attack became more reckless.
But that's exactly the effect he wanted!
"Black-hearted tiger, prepare to die! The sun shines over the nine provinces!"
Taking advantage of the Senzu Bean's complete dissolution and his peak condition, Rainbow Cat unleashed the brilliance of the Rainbow Sword, transforming it into a real blazing sun. Endless light and heat converged into an enormous, crimson sword pillar, which slashed down towards Blackheart Tiger!
"You little beast! You think you can be arrogant just because you have Qilin blood? Today, I, the King, will show you what absolute power is! Heavenly Demon Dance, break!"
Black Tiger, acting like a madman, advanced instead of retreating, disregarding his injured right arm and thrusting out with both arms at once!
The pitch-black demonic energy surged like a tide, transforming into countless ferocious demonic shadows with bared fangs and claws before him, emitting piercing shrieks as they lunged at the "scorching sun"! He was actually going to meet fire with fire, directly confronting this supremely yang and powerful sword strike!
"boom!!!"
An explosion more violent than any before occurred.
Crimson and pitch-black energies tore and gnawed at each other, forming a huge ball of energy that then suddenly expanded and exploded!
The terrifying shockwave pulverized countless rocks.
"Pfft!" "Wow!"
Rainbow Cat and Black Heart Tiger both coughed up blood and flew backward.
Rainbow Cat felt as if his internal organs had shifted, and the tiger's mouth of his right hand holding the sword burst open again, bleeding profusely, while his blood and qi churned violently within him.
Blackheart Tiger fared even worse. His already injured right arm was further damaged in this all-out exchange of fire, almost losing all feeling in it, and he also felt a tightness in his chest.
However, as he was being sent flying backward, Rainbow Cat quietly pulled out another Senzu Bean with his left hand and put it in his mouth.
That warm and vibrant energy flowed through my body once more, soothing my injuries and replenishing my inner strength.
"Bastard!"
Seeing Rainbow Cat instantly return to his energetic self, Black Tiger's eyes widened in fury, and the jealousy and anger in his chest almost burned away his reason.
He steadied himself as he flew backward, ignoring the excruciating pain in his right arm, and roared at Rainbow Cat:
"What a self-proclaimed successor of the Seven Swords of the Righteous Path! What a righteous master of the Rainbow Sword who protects auspicious omens!"
"So, your way of protecting the Qilin is to turn its blood into medicine for your own consumption?!"
"Using such foreign objects in battle, is this the style of your righteous path? Despicable! Shameless!"
Rainbow Cat, who was about to press his advantage, was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He then understood what the other party was thinking. Black Tiger actually thought that "Senzu Beans" were made from the blood of a Kirin.
He sheathed his sword, halting his attack, and looked at the crazed Blackheart Tiger, shaking his head as he said:
"Black-hearted Tiger, don't judge a gentleman by your own filthy mind."
"My father and I guard the Qilin for the sake of all living beings and to maintain the peace of nature."
"Harm the Qilin for personal gain? Such despicable acts are no different from yours, you demon! We are not that bad!"
"Hahaha! Not Qilin blood?"
Black-Hearted Tiger seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world, and grinned maliciously.
"Then tell me, what kind of miraculous medicine exists in this world that can instantly heal a person's injuries and restore their inner strength?"
"Could it be the legendary elixir of immortality! But where is the elixir? Could it be something passed down from your Seven Swords ancestors? What difference is there between that and medicine made from Qilin blood? It's nothing but a clever pretext, a self-deceiving act!"
Rainbow Cat looked at him quietly, without any expression.
If you can't understand it, does that mean it doesn't exist?
Does he expect me to explain the "chat group" and "Senzu beans" to him?
He recalled a sentence he had seen in a chat group, which couldn't be more fitting for this moment.
"I can't be bothered to talk to you, you don't deserve to listen."
These ten simple words are more lethal than any sharp words.
Trying to explain things to a scoundrel like Blackheart Tiger, who is obsessed with greed and only judges others by his own standards, is a complete waste of breath.
"What did you say?!"
Blackheart Tiger was taken aback, then his face turned bright red, and then turned liver-colored.
He had roamed the martial arts world for decades, and had never been so scorned before.
"You little bastard! I, the King, will tear you to pieces and extract your soul!"
In his extreme rage, Black Tiger no longer thought about the Qilin blood or tactics; he now had only one thought.
Kill this damned brat!
He roared, and the dark demonic energy erupted from his body once more, even tinged with a hint of blood.
His body seemed to have swelled up, with black blood vessels twisting and writhing under his skin, making him look incredibly terrifying.
"Die! The Demon Devours the World!"
A pitch-black palm print, seemingly capable of devouring all light, slammed down on Rainbow Cat.
Faced with this terrifying attack, Rainbow Cat's expression became more solemn than ever before.
"Come on! Let this sword end it all!"
Rainbow Cat took a deep breath and poured all his energy into the Rainbow Sword.
The sword trembled and hummed, burning with crimson light.
"Fire Dance Whirlwind!"
The crimson sword light collided with "Demon Devouring the World"!
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
"boom!"
The deafening roar seemed to tear at one's eardrums, and intense light and smoke engulfed the area.
When the smoke cleared, Rainbow Cat looked ahead and saw nothing but a mess; there was no one there!
Black Tiger has vanished!
"what?"
Rainbow Cat felt a chill run down his spine, and suddenly looked up, his sharp gaze sweeping across the surroundings like a sword flash.
Several dozen feet away, on a relatively intact rock, Blackheart Tiger stood with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Rainbow Cat looking over, Black Tiger revealed a wild smile.
"Boy, do you really think that I, a king who has roamed the martial world for decades, would actually fight to the death with a greenhorn like you?"
"Hahahahaha."
"you!"
Rainbow Cat was shocked to find that his opponent was so cunning and ruthless that he chose to escape at the last moment.
If Black-Hearted Tiger were to escape today, who knows what kind of consequences it would have?
"You don't need to look at me like that."
Blackheart Tiger took a deep breath, his cold gaze sweeping over Rainbow Cat, then glancing at White Cat and Jumpy in the distance, before finally settling on Little Qilin, a cruel smile curving his lips.
"I underestimated you all today, especially you, boy."
"but."
"I don't believe that the other six sword inheritors have the same strength and 'Qilin Blood Medicine' as you, Rainbow Cat, do they?"
He abruptly changed the subject, his voice becoming deep and filled with malice.
"What do you want to do?"
Rainbow Cat had a bad feeling.
"What are you doing? Hahaha!"
Black Tiger laughed loudly, his laughter filled with arrogance and scheming.
"Listen, boy! Although I have retreated today, the Demonic Sect's influence is spread throughout the world! Finding the other hidden Seven Swordsmen will not be difficult!"
He stared at Rainbow Cat and said, word by word:
"If you want to keep your 'brothers and sisters' who you haven't even met alive safe, then give them the blood of the Qilin!"
"Not much is needed, just enough for each person to save lives and increase their abilities!"
"Otherwise, you can just wait to collect their corpses!"
"Black-hearted Tiger! How dare you!"
Rainbow Cat roared, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.
"What wouldn't I dare to do?"
Black-hearted Tiger sneered.
"Remember this, kid, this is the martial world, not a place for you to play house! You have three months to think it over! After three months, if you don't have the blood of the Qilin, then prepare to collect the corpses of the Seven Swords! Hahahaha!"
Amidst maniacal laughter, Blackheart Tiger transformed into a faint blood-red shadow, fleeing at astonishing speed into the depths of the forest, while letting out a piercing shriek:
"All members of the Demonic Sect, retreat!"
The demonic cult members, who had been terrified, were relieved. Zhu Wujie and Niu Xuanfeng fled immediately, looking disheveled as they ran away into the dark forest.
Rainbow Cat stood amidst the ruins, sword in hand, gazing in the direction where Blackheart Tiger had vanished, his brow slightly furrowed.
He never expected that even with his greatly improved strength, even with the surprise attack from Jumpy, and even with the help of Senzu Beans, the demon would still escape and leave behind such a threat!
"Hong'er, are you alright?"
The white cat approached with Jump and Little Qilin, its expression equally grave.
"I'm fine, Father. It's just a pity that he still got away."
Rainbow Cat shook his head and sheathed his sword.
"He can't run away forever."
The white cat said in a deep voice.
"As for his threats."
At this moment, Jump Jump cupped his hands to Rainbow Cat and White Cat and said:
"I am Tiao Tiao, the master of the Azure Light Sword. Thank you for saving me, Young Hero Rainbow Cat and Senior White Cat."
"Black-hearted Tiger's words are by no means empty boasting."
"The Demonic Cult does indeed possess this ability. We must find the other five swords as soon as possible and protect them."
He paused, his voice becoming even lower.
"Moreover, Black Tiger said he'd give us three months. I'm afraid those three months are what the Demonic Sect uses to hunt down and control the other Seven Swordsmen. Once they succeed..."
"We must act immediately, every second counts!"
"However, the seven swordsmen are scattered in various places, hiding their identities. It is by no means easy to find and gather them all in a short period of time."
"I have been infiltrating the Demonic Sect for ten years, and I have only managed to uncover some vague clues. Moreover, after this battle, Black Tiger will surely be more vigilant and will probably change his plans and intensify his search efforts."
Jump Jump's concerns are not unfounded.
The Demonic Cult's influence is deeply entrenched and has many informants. If they are truly determined to uncover the other Sword Masters, even if Tiao Tiao knows some information, it is difficult to guarantee their safety.
Time was indeed extremely tight.
But Rainbow Cat remained unusually calm in the face of Jump Jump's anxiety.
He reached out his hand to Tiaotiao, a confident and composed smile on his face.
"Brother Jump, there's no need to worry too much."
"I already know the whereabouts of the other Seven Swordsmen."
"what?!"
Jump suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with disbelief.
The Seven Swordsmen, if not all of them, lived in anonymity, but they were not far off. Even the Demonic Sect had little information about them. How did Young Hero Rainbow Cat know their whereabouts?
Rainbow Cat didn't explain the existence of the "chat group," but simply nodded solemnly:
"This is a long story, but please believe me, Brother Tiaotiao."
"Black-hearted Tiger thinks he can blackmail me because he holds the safety of his other companions in his hands. He underestimates me!"
"There's no time to lose, Brother Jump, how are your injuries? If you can move, let's set off immediately!"
Suppressing her shock and doubt, Tiao Tiao checked her internal condition.
The effects of that magical bean continued, not only fully healing his injuries but also making his internal energy even more abundant than before.
He nodded emphatically:
"I am alright! Young Hero Rainbow Cat, Senior White Cat, please give your orders!"
"it is good."
Rainbow Cat nodded and quickly made arrangements.
"Father, it's not safe here anymore."
"Although the Black Tiger has retreated, it is hard to guarantee that he will not make a comeback or send people to harass us."
"Please take Qilin and go to a safe and secluded place to take refuge; Brother Tiaotiao and I will set off immediately to find our other companions!"
White Cat did not object to his plan to bring Qilin along, and completely trusted Rainbow Cat.
Moreover, the current martial arts world is no longer their era.
"Okay, be careful."
He paused, then looked at Tiaotiao.
"Young hero, Hong'er is young and may lack experience in the martial world. I will need your help on this journey."
"Rest assured, senior! Jump Jump will do his utmost to help Young Hero Rainbow Cat!"
Jump Jump solemnly replied.
Rainbow Cat no longer hesitated and turned his gaze to the southeast, where the Jade Toad Palace was located in his memory.
"Our first target is the Ice Soul Sword Master, Blue Rabbit, located in the Jade Toad Palace in the southeast!"
When he mentioned the name, Rainbow Cat's tone softened for a moment, but then immediately became firm again.
"As the Palace Master of Jade Toad Palace, Lan Tu is a relatively obvious target. If the Demonic Sect wants to make a move, she will likely be the first to be hit. We must get there as soon as possible!"
"After finding the Blue Rabbit, we immediately changed course and headed to the Golden Whip Creek Inn to find Sally, the Purple Cloud Sword Master!"
"By the way, Brother Jump, your Azure Light Sword."
Rainbow Cat looked at Jump Jump, and Jump Jump immediately replied:
"I have hidden the Azure Light Sword in a secluded place not far from here. We can retrieve it on our way."
"Alright, let's retrieve the Azure Light Sword and head straight for the Jade Toad Palace!"
