Chapter 167 Combining Yin and Yang of Soul Cutter and Fighting Against the Evil
“Well, this‒I…” Hao Ning looked at the seven people, and he was even more frightened in his heart. How did he just come out at once? There was no sign at all!

This was troublesome! He didn’t have the power as Xiao Hong did. Not only did he have no power, but he even didn’t have a decent weapon. Wasn’t this risking his neck? Zhou Yuan the straw man, how could his Virtualised reality be so unreliable?

Seeing Hao Ning did not speak, that big brother worried that Hao Ning was also a master like Xiao Hong, and he quickly swayed his two fingers. One sword inserted in Xiao Hong immediately flew up and rushed to Hao Ning.

“Shoot! Help!” Hao Ning was shocked. The life was the most important, so that he quickly ran with “Sliding-over-the-water Art”. Though the speed of this flying sword was fast, how amazing the Sliding-over-the-water Art was, and for a while the flying sword couldn’t hit Hao Ning. However, this time it was different. The speed of the flying sword was too fast, and the position of each hit was very dangerous. Hao Ning had to fully run Sliding-over-the-water Art before he barely avoided the flying sword.

“So awful!” Hao Ning screamed in mind as he ran at full speed. In this condition, the slightest carelessness of him might result in his becoming the human flesh sashimi.

Hao Ning was thinking about what to do, suddenly heard the big brother shouting: “Soul Cutter! How could you have such a treasure!” Hao Ning felt strange in his heart. He looked up and found that two small balls were flying around the top of his head. He immediately understood. He just had put on the ring after he got it from Long Fei, and now he was running the Sliding-over-the-water Art, which was also run by Northern-ming Genuine Qi, and then it naturally stimulated the balls in this ring.

Thinking of this, Hao Ning had a click. While running and using the inner strength, he placed the effort of “Life and Death Charms” on his right hand. Sure enough, the two small balls were turned into two small swords. Then Hao Ning slightly moved his index finger, and the two small swords suddenly rushed towards the flying sword behind him, and unexpectedly hit it aside!

“It works!” Hao Ning found that it was effective, and then he immediately stopped, commanding the Soul Cutter to fight against the flying sword. Although the flying sword was extremely fast, after all, it had some weight, while Hao Ning’s two small swords were transformed from the small balls, and there was almost no weight. The speed of them was many times faster than it of this flying sword. After a few breaths, the flying sword had been hit a few meters away by the “Soul Cutter” and could not be close to Hao Ning.

At this time, it could be seen that these two small swords and the Heaven Sword were so powerful. Wherever the three swords went, all the pillars and walls were directly cut like tofu, without any stagnation. The Heaven Sword truly lived up to its reputation. In addition, it was not known that the Heaven Sword was made by what kind of material. When the small swords hit its body, they could only sway it, but couldn’t cause any damage.

“This person is powerful!” The big brother immediately called for the other people, and then the other people gave a gesture. The remaining six flying swords were pulled out from Xiao Hong and flew towards Hao Ning. Xiao Hong wanted to help Hao Ning, but at this time it was difficult with his serious injuries. He quickly closed his eyes and nursed his body. The blood on his body slowly stopped flowing out, but after all, he had been badly injured, and although it did not hurt the roots, he could not move for a moment.

“What the hell!” Hao Ning yelled in his heart. One “Heaven Sword” had been terrible enough to fight against, and now all the seven swords came together. As for Xiao Hong, he was in such a bad condition and perhaps could not use much power to borrow and use the Real Fire of the Sun just like before. ‒Moreover, after Xiao Hong was injured, the Universal Ring of Nezha could not hold either, and the Universal Ring had already been taken back to the Virtualised reality. Now if he wanted to call it out again, it probably would cost some effort. In such an unfavorable situation, Hao Ning was actually a little nervous and confused.

Now the situation was extremely dangerous. He was just a mortal. Not to say that this was the Heaven Sword that could cut clean through iron as though it had been mud, even if it had been an ordinary watermelon knife, he could not have stood once being cut on his body. Moreover, these seven flying swords could not allow him to have his head in the clouds anymore. In a twinkling of eyes, they all directly flew to him.

After being scared, Hao Ning calmed down gradually. Anyway, there was no way to do it, and it was better to set the mind first and resist these flying swords. So, Hao Ning concentrated calmly, running the two flying swords transformed from the “Soul Cutter” with the sword skill of “Du Gu Nine Sword”. No matter how these seven Heaven Swords stabbed, he could just resist for having no trick was better than any tricks. Now it was fun. Although the seven “Heaven Swords” were flashing cool light, after all, these seven people were running the swords over the “apricot bamboo hat”, and they could not exercise their entire capacity. How could they be better than the small swords which Hao Ning was running with Northern-ming Genuine Qi in his element? Moreover, it seemed that this Soul Cutter could only be run smoothly with the inner strength of the Life and Death Charms transformed from Northern-ming Genuine Qi. There was no doubt in this point. And Hao Ning’s inner strength of Life and Death Charms could be said to have been used many times without any stagnation. As for these seven people, obviously their using Heaven Swords as flying swords was not proficient enough, and not long after on their faces gradually appeared sweat drops. Under the circumstance, Hao Ning was gradually able to resist the seven swords’ attack. From a distance, it could be seen that the two small swords of the Soul Cutter moved so quickly that were turned into a silver light ball. No matter how the seven swords attacked, they were swayed by the light ball.

The more the seven people attacked, the more alarmed they became. They had thought that an Innate Fire Spirit could already cause a headache. Who knew that there came another unknown guy? Moreover, this guy seemed to be highly skilled in military drill. Without the five elements shield, he could make every attack of these seven flying swords be swayed away. This method of using swords as a shield had never been seen in their lives. They were afraid that if it went on, they would get exhausted, and then they would face tremendous problems.

However, Hao Ning was also secretly complaining in his mind at this time. When the founder of “Du Gu Nine Sword” created this sword skill, he did not consider the situation of using two swords at the same time, but only one sword held in one hand to against the enemy. Hao Ning now was using two small swords of “Soul Cutter” to simultaneously display the Du Gu Nine Sword. This was a bit too much to gild the lily. On several occasions, a small sword just about to sway the Heaven Sword, was hit by another small sword. If Hao Ning had not responded quickly, the Heaven Sword would have stabbed in. The seven people seemed to have also noticed Hao Ning’s flaw. The big brother uttered a long cry: “Brothers, although this guy has excellent martial skills, he can’t use the Soul Cutter conveniently. We only need to attack a few more times, and his shield will be broken!”

“D**n! Who knows that one would be better than one more? There should be such a truth!” Hao Ning thought in mind angrily. What the hell! Why must you, the Soul Cutter, have two small swords? And why couldn’t you be one? I called you out with this Life and Death Charm, which was extremely Yin or extreme Yang, so couldn’t you combine yourselves into one?

Thinking of this, Hao Ning was suddenly hit by something in his mind, and he recalled Long Fei’s analysis at that time. Maybe it was because of the lack of power that Kong and Dao could only be able to use the extreme Yin or the extreme Yang inner strength of Life and Death Charms, so they had to use it in this way. But his inner strength of Life and Death Charms could be arbitrarily combined like three of Yin and seven of Yang. What if his inner strength was made of a part of Yin and a part of Yang?

When Hao Ning was thinking of this, a Heaven Sword had just found the flaw of the two small swords and already drilled in the circle. Seeing that the sword was approaching, Hao Ning turned his right hand without thinking, and immediately turned the inner strength of Life and Death Charms into five of Yin and five of Yang. With a “bang” as if a muffled thunder rushing straightly into the sky, these two small swords flew a circle in the air at a very fast speed, and then became one light and one dark, being combined into one small sword. This small sword was even smaller than the two small swords just now, but it was full of brilliance and seemed to have a many times greater density. This small sword stirred a circle around the Heaven Sword, which was rushing to the face of Hao Ning. With the sound of crackling, the Heaven Sword in front of Hao Ning’s eyes seemed to have received a heavy attack, straightly flying to the sky. When it fell down, it should fall beside Xiao Hong. Hao Ning peeked at it from the corner of his eye. Originally, the Heaven Sword could cut clean through iron like mud, and there was nothing that could break it. But at this time, the sword was all scratched up and there were lots of cracks in its blade. How could it be called the Heaven Sword now? It was obviously an iron saw long fallen into disrepair! Most importantly, even if how those people cast spells again, the sword was still lying on the ground, motionless, as if those people had had no control over the sword!

“What happened?” This sword seemed to belong to the Sixth. After uttering some spells, the Sixth opened his eyes and exclaimed: “Big brother, my connection with Brush of Kaleidoscope has been cut off!”

“How is that possible!” The older brother said subconsciously. But when he looked at the flying sword that was no longer moving on the ground, and then looked at the small sword that was combined with one another beside Hao Ning, he was shocked to stop answering the Sixth. With widely-opened eyes and the scared-out silver wrinkles on his face, he pointed to the small sword in the air called out by Hao Ning, shouting in a trembling voice: “How could you use the Combining Yin and Yang of the Soul Cutter! How could you use the Combining Yin and Yang of the Soul Cutter?! This trick is only in the legend! How could you use it!?”

Probably he was too shocked, this big brother said several times “How could you use it”.

“What the hell is Combining Yin and Yang?” Hao Ning saw they were so frightened, knowing that his risk-taking attempt succeeded. He laughed in mind and didn’t answer any words. He followed up the success by letting the sword of Soul Cutter fly in the air and fight against the six Heaven Swords. With several sounds of the crash, which were as good as the sounds of percussion instrument, the remaining six Heaven Swords became the same as the first one. They were all broken and lay on the ground, no longer moving.

“Xiao Hong!” Hao Ning found the crisis had been a bit lifted off. He quickly ran to hold up Xiao Hong, who was lying on the ground. Xiao Hong sat with his head, palms and soles facing upward, exercising for the treatment of injuries. Feeling someone pushing him, Xiao Hong opened his eyes and found it was Hao Ning. He glanced at the surroundings and realized the situation. With a slight smile, his lips cracked a trace of blood, and he said in a weak voice: “I’m fine, but I can’t move for a while. Big Brother, we can’t let these people go, otherwise…”

“I know!” Hao Ning nodded. He understood the meaning of Xiao Hong. These people were merciless and had so many means. If there had not been so many masters on his own side today, the condition would have been totally different. If they left and rallied their forces and then came back again, he would be destroyed so greatly that there would be no residue left. However, although he had broken their attack of Heaven Swords, the loss on his own side was also very big. In this condition, the place where Nezha and Zhou Yuan could help should be very limited. It would be a big problem for him to keep them here only based on his own strength.

“Big brother, what the hell is going on?” The Third in the apricot bamboo hat asked, “Why did our Brush of Kaleidoscope lose the connection with us?”

“In the legend, it is said that Soul Cutter has a trick called Combining Yin and Yang.” The big brother stared at the several Heaven Swords on the ground and he seemed to be very heartbroken, “There are two kinds of Soul Cutter, and one is extremely Yin while another is extremely Yang. Whether it is Yin or Yang, there are two swords. But this Combining Yin and Yang has only one sword, and the power of this sword is extraordinary. It is said that the extremely Yin Soul Cutter can hurt the spirits, while the extremely Yang can change for everything. It has already been very powerful. But compared with this Combining Yin and Yang, it is not worth a mention…”

“How is the Combining Yin and Yang?” Another person asked urgently.

“Combining Yin and Yang can break the chain of causation.” The big brother swallowed. “In this situation, it was not that the Brush of Kaleidoscope lost connection with us, but this guy used the trick of Combining Yin and Yang, breaking the chain of causation of our relationship with Brush of Kaleidoscope…”
