Chapter 43 Seven Swords Combined

Pagoda Mountain

After eliminating the persistent threat of Zhu Wujie, Fang Xiu and his group enjoyed a moment of peace, at least until the other pursuers from the Demonic Cult caught up.

Rainbow Cat's recovery is progressing much faster than expected. He used to have trouble walking the night before, but now he can walk briskly. However, his internal injuries have not yet healed, so he should not use his internal energy too much.

The secret passage beneath the inn leads directly to Pagoda Mountain, and the real Purple Cloud Sword is hidden in a cave called Yellow Dragon Cave within Pagoda Mountain.

The location of Huanglong Cave is extremely hidden. Apart from Sally, the master of the Purple Cloud Sword, only Fang Xiu knows where it is. With Fang Xiu leading the way, the group arrived at Huanglong Cave together.

"Ah-xiu!"

After taking Xiao Hong to a safe place, Sally returned. She had been waiting near Huanglong Cave for a long time and couldn't wait to show herself when she saw Fang Xiu arrive.

Fang Xiu caught Sally as she jumped down and then introduced her to Rainbow Cat and the others.

"This is Young Hero Rainbow Cat! This is Palace Mistress Blue Rabbit! And this is the mighty Mercedes!"

"Everyone, this is Sally, the Purple Cloud Sword Master you are looking for."

Without Ma San Niang interfering this time, Sally finally met Rainbow Cat and the others as the Master of Purple Cloud Sword.

Although Rainbow Cat's injuries have improved considerably, it will still take some time for him to fully recover. Therefore, the time for the three swords to combine their skills needs to be postponed. During this period, Rainbow Cat and the others will mainly familiarize themselves with each other's sword techniques and increase their proficiency.

Moreover, to combine the three swords, one more thing needs to be done: the sword Sally currently holds is not the real Ziyun Sword; the real Ziyun Sword is still hidden in Huanglong Cave.

The Seven Swords were forged from the seven-colored meteorite cores, each symbolizing sunshine, snow, clouds, rain, thunder, lightning, and wind.

It is precisely because of the unique fact that the seven swords originate from the same source that they can be combined. If it is not the real Purple Cloud Sword, even if the Purple Cloud Sword Technique is used, it is impossible to complete the combination, just like Ma San Niang.

Therefore, while Rainbow Cat was recuperating, Fang Xiu and Sally went to Huanglong Cave to retrieve the sword.

The Huanglong Cave was full of traps, but this was no problem for the two of them. They had set up most of the traps themselves, and who would be stumped by the traps they had set? Before long, the two of them arrived at the depths of the Huanglong Cave.

At the deepest part of Huanglong Cave lies a deep pool with unfathomable depths and flowing water that connects to the outside world.

In the center of the pool is a stone mountain, on which lies a sheathed longsword, the real Purple Cloud Sword.

Clear water is shallow, green water is deep, and black water is abyss. The deep pool in Huanglong Cave is black and bottomless. Beneath the seemingly calm water lies the true guardian of the Purple Cloud Sword: a giant, invulnerable python.

That strange python will indiscriminately attack anyone who tries to approach Tanzhong Stone Mountain; only by drawing the true Purple Cloud Sword can it be driven away.

As Fang Xiu and Sally approached the deep pool, the once calm waters began to ripple, and a colossal creature emerged from the water.

"puff……"

Sally, who was on high alert, couldn't help but turn her head when she heard laughter, and found Fang Xiu looking like he was trying not to laugh.

Sally: ? ? ?

Before regaining his memories, Fang Xiu didn't think much of the strange python, but after regaining his memories, he noticed that the strange python looked exactly like the villainous snake, the boss of the Little Carp's Adventure.

Aside from lacking dragon horns and having a different color, the two are practically identical.

"Ah-xiu?"

"It's alright, leave the python to me, you go get the sword." Fang Xiu smiled and shook his head, after all, it just looked similar.

The two had a clear division of labor: Fang Xiu stopped the strange python, and Sally took the opportunity to grab the sword.

Although the strange python has no internal energy, it is a naturally unique species with an amazing physique and an invulnerable scale-like body. Otherwise, it would not have been chosen as the guardian of the Purple Cloud Sword.

In the past, Fang Xiu had fought against this strange python with Sally, led by the previous Purple Cloud Sword Master. At that time, Fang Xiu was far from being a match for this strange python, but now, the situation has reversed!

Recalling the scene of being brutally tortured by this strange python in the past, Fang Xiu smiled and walked towards it. The extreme cold spread out and formed a layer of ice that kept thickening on the water's surface.

So when Sally drew her Purple Cloud Sword, she saw the strange python's thick, long body almost tangled together, and most of the pool water was frozen. The culprit was, of course, Fang Xiu.

Fang Xiu didn't do anything too outrageous to the strange python. After all, as the guardian of the Purple Cloud Sword, the python had at least worked hard, even if it hadn't done anything particularly meritorious.

With the Purple Cloud Sword in hand, Fang Xiu stopped tormenting the strange python. He freed it from its restraints and left it alone. The pool of water was flowing water, and the ice on top would naturally melt away after a while.

For the next period of time, without the pressure of the Demonic Cult's pursuers, Rainbow Cat recuperated, Blue Rabbit and Sally first tried the dual sword combination, while Fang Xiu and Da Ben kept an eye on the direction of the inn to see if any members of the Demonic Cult were coming.

The deaths of Zhu Wujie and Ma Sanniang are not yet known to other members of the Demonic Sect, but secrets cannot be kept forever, and such things will be exposed sooner or later.

Following Zhu Wujie, Niu Xuanfeng, the third hall master of the Demonic Cult, also has the apparent identity of a Demonic Cult protector, but his true identity is actually Tiaotiao, the sword master of the Qingguang Sword among the Seven Swords.

The two men arrived at the Golden Whip Creek Inn a little later than Zhu Wujie, only to find the corpses of Zhu Wujie and his men. The Golden Whip Creek Inn was already deserted.

"Old Pig Four is dead?"

Looking at the mess inside the inn and the headless body of Zhu Wujie, Niu Xuanfeng was still in a daze. Although Zhu Laosi was weaker than him in terms of raw strength, he was not that much weaker. If he could kill Zhu Laosi, why couldn't he kill Niu Laosan?

"He is indeed dead."

Unlike Niu Xuanfeng, Tiaotiao appeared sorrowful on the surface, but inwardly she was overjoyed. "Good riddance! Every single member of the Demonic Sect deserved to die!"

"Judging from the marks on the corpse, there were at least three people who did it." Even though he was secretly laughing, Jump still had to maintain the appearance of a protector of the Demonic Cult on the surface. However, the death of Pig Fourth was a good thing for Jump.

Although Zhu Wujie appears to be greedy, lustful, and a sycophant, he is actually treacherous, cunning, and meticulous. With Zhu Wujie by his side, Tiaotiao often has to be extra careful in his actions. Now that he is dead, dealing with Niu Xuanfeng, a simple-minded and reckless man, will be much easier.

"A master who cultivates cold energy struck first, and Master Pig was hit by a palm strike." Jump Jump touched the floor of the inn and then looked at the hole in the wall of the inn.

"At the same time, two experts attacked and killed the Pig Hall Master's subordinates. One of them used a sword, which should be the Blue Rabbit Palace Master of Jade Toad Palace, and the other used a club-like weapon."

The corpses on the ground showed two distinct marks: sword wounds and blunt force trauma.

Finally, there was the headless corpse of Zhu Wujie. Turning over Zhu Wujie's headless body, Tiaotiao's eyes flickered. There were three wounds on Zhu Wujie's body. One was a palm print on his chest. Without internal force restraining it, the palm print was filled with yin energy, freezing the corpse purple and hard.

One was a footprint, running from top to bottom, which forcefully broke Zhu Wujie's hands, and the last was the sword wound from the decapitation.

The three wounds were inflicted by two people. The first two were attributed to one person, while the final sword wound should have been inflicted by the Ice Soul Sword Master, Lan Tu.

In an instant, Tiaotiao's mind conjured up the scene from that moment.

No matter what, Zhu Wujie was one of the four hall masters of the Demonic Sect, an important fighting force of the Demonic Sect. Since he died, Black Heart Tiger should be informed.

As Niu Xuanfeng and his men entered the inn, Fang Xiu climbed to a high vantage point on the back mountain and took in the distant situation.

Unlike Zhu Wujie, who came lightly equipped with only a dozen or so elite men, Tiaotiao and Niu Xuanfeng brought large armies, including most of Zhu Wujie's four gangs, forming a huge horde.

The members of the Demonic Cult are searching the inn, trying to find clues, while Rainbow Cat's injuries have finally healed, and he begins to try the Three Swords Combination.

"The Rainbow Sword!"

"Ice Soul Sword!"

"Purple Cloud Sword!"

"The three swords combined!"

The three formed the Three Powers Formation, with the tips of their three swords facing each other, each unleashing their corresponding sword techniques.
