Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

However, Dong Xi had already finished asking around. Qian Yun was at the 11th level of the Qi Refinement stage. Dong Xi really could not beat him.

The two of them persisted for a while. Dong Xi saw that Qian Yun had no intention of attacking and sighed in her heart. Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother, please enlighten me.”

Dong Xi still did not take out his sword. She raised her hand and began to form hand seals. Dong Xi said, “Power of the Earth.”

A huge earth hand appeared in the air and smashed towards Qian Yun.

The attack was easily repelled.

Qian Yun retracted his hand and looked at Dong Xi. He said helplessly, “Junior Sister, can you be more serious?”

Dong Xi did not say anything, nor did she look at Qian Yun. Dong Xi frowned, deep in thought. It was unknown if she had heard Qian Yun’s words.

Qian Yun did not disturb Dong Xi and just looked at her as she pondered. After a while, Dong Xi formed another hand seal. She used the Power of the Earth again, but it was slightly different from before.

Qian Yun felt the ground beneath his feet move, and the cobblestone path seemed to have become a flowing stream.

Qian Yun instinctively used his flying magic tool and glanced at the serious-looking Dong Xi.

Dong Xi’s hand seals became faster and faster. At the same time, Dong Xi’s entire body was wrapped in khaki-colored spiritual Qi, as if she was in an eggshell.

As Dong Xi completed her hand seals, a huge fist slowly rose from the ground and smashed toward Qian Yun in the sky.

Qian Yun did not dare to act this time and immediately flew up a few hundred feet. Qian Yun shouted, “Divine Lightning!”

Qian Yun’s cultivation was still lacking, so he could not use the perfected Divine Lightning skill. However, even this half-baked skill was hard for many people to bear.

To be able to use this move to resist Dong Xi’s Power of the Earth also meant that Dong Xi’s attack this time was much stronger than before.

However, Qian Yun had not expected that after the Divine Lightning had nullified the Power of the Earth, Dong Xi would actually appear under the Divine Lightning and voluntarily get struck by it.

The power of the Divine Lightning was much weaker after being consumed by the Power of the Earth, but it definitely did not feel good to be struck by lightning.

Dong Xi absorbed the power of the lightning and began to meditate, refining it.

In this way, Qian Yun seemed to have realized something.

At first, Dong Xi asked around who had lightning spirit roots, then said she wanted to spar, and even let lightning strike her continuously.

Could it be that Junior Sister Dong Xi… liked to be struck by lightning?

This was indeed very strange. There were actually people who liked to be struck by lightning? What was Dong Xi trying to do?

Qian Yun did not continue to attack. He stood quietly beside Dong Xi as if he was protecting her. When Dong Xi opened her eyes, Qian Yun said seriously, “Junior Sister, are you really here to spar with me?”

Dong Xi knew she could not hide it anymore. Just as she was about to explain, sounds came from the grass behind him.

The two of them looked at the grass at the same time. Qian Yun shouted, “Who’s there?”

A group of people walked out from the grass one after another. They were all Qian Yun’s Senior Brothers. Everyone laughed awkwardly and started talking.

“You guys continue to chat. Don’t pay attention to us. We… were just passing by.”

“That’s right, we’re just passing by.”

“By the way, Junior Sister, you’re definitely not here to spar with Junior Brother Qian Yun, right? We understand.”

…

Dong Xi realized that there was going to be a new round of rumors. She quickly said, “No, I’m only here to spar.”

Dong Xi took out the iron sword that he had prepared earlier. Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother, please enlighten me.”

Dong Xi had just comprehended a little bit of the Power of the Earth and was interrupted by these people. The Power of the Earth was kind of spiritual Qi. If it could be poured out by the vast earth, its power would be very great. However, it was not that simple. Dong Xi had only comprehended a little bit.

When she had time in the future, she would slowly cultivate it. For now, she would focus on body cultivation.

When Qian Yun saw that Dong Xi had taken out an iron sword, he wanted to remind her that using an iron sword was not a good idea. However, he was afraid that his Senior Brothers would misunderstand and say that he was being lovey-dovey with Dong Xi, so Qian Yun could only shut his mouth.

He thought to himself, ‘Forget it, when we spar, I’ll have to control my strength.’

He wanted to let his na?ve Junior Sister know that an iron sword was not a good choice of weapon to deal with cultivators with lightning spirit roots.

Dong Xi naturally knew about this. She was not a fool. Moreover, everyone knew that iron was conductive.

The reason why Dong Xi used an iron sword was to better conduct electricity. She was using it deliberately for body tempering. Such a good opportunity, how could she miss it?!

Qian Yun threw out a spell technique, and Dong Xi did not even think before raising her iron sword to meet the lightning attack. It looked as if she was fighting, but in reality, she purposely blocked the attack.

At first, Qian Yun still wanted to warn Dong Xi, so he did not hit him too hard. Dong Xi happily received the power of the lightning, feeling the electricity coursing through her body.

After she did this a few times, not to mention Qian Yun, even the spectators realized that something was wrong.
