Chapter 5378: Are you scared?

Leng Leng frowned and immediately prepared to use the ice prison mirror. The power of this move could already pose a threat to early gold core experts when she was at the great circle of Foundation establishment. Now that she had advanced to the early gold core stage, its power had increased by ten times or even dozens of times. It could pose a threat to any gold core expert, including those at the great circle of gold core.

Especially since this was snow sword sect, she didn’t need to deal with Xue Jianfeng alone. Once they started fighting, it would quickly attract onlookers and make a big deal out of it. By then, it wouldn’t be her problem alone.

However, before Leng Leng could make her move, a bone-chilling cold had already enveloped the tip of the snow sword. Bing Wuqing’s voice then rang out,””Who’s the one who doesn’t know what’s good for her?”

“I knew it, when Leng Leng is in trouble, you, Lin Yi’s damn Lackey, would be the first to jump out and bare your fangs. Hehe, I was right!” Not only was Xue Jianfeng not shocked, but the corner of his mouth curved into a sneer, as if he had forgotten the painful lesson last time.

“So, you came prepared?” Bing Wuqing sized him up again. Although he didn’t make a move, and didn’t release any terrifying aura, her intuition told her that he was no longer the same as before. Thinking back to how he had disappeared for a few months, anything was possible with his heaven-defying skills. Perhaps he had already advanced to the nascent Soul Stage!

Otherwise, with Xue Jianfeng’s nature of bullying the weak, he would not have dared to come back at this time to stir up trouble, let alone in such an open and aboveboard way.

Thinking of this, Bing Wuqing suddenly had a flash of understanding. She had provoked Leng Leng to lure her out on purpose. Could it be that this guy wanted to take revenge on her?

“What do you think?” Xue Jianfeng didn’t even try to hide it, and a ferocious look flashed in his eyes.”Someone asked me to pass you a message. Betrayal comes with a price. Traitors will never have a good end. I hope you can be mentally prepared.”

“Is that so?” Bing Wuqing’s expression didn’t change at all. There was no need to mention who this person was. From the day he had attacked Xue Jianfeng, he had already been prepared for this, and he wasn’t afraid at all.

It was true that the center was unfathomable, but was Lin Yi weak?

Central’s higher-ups had repeatedly warned their subordinates not to provoke Lin Yi, and this in itself proved how terrifying Lin Yi was. Bing Wuqing believed that Lin Yi and his backer must have a profound strength that could compete with central-this was the most logical explanation. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have completely joined Lin Yi’s side so easily. This was a huge gamble, and a smart person like him wouldn’t bet on it so easily.

“You seem to have nothing to fear? Do you really think that you’re invincible and no one can defeat you just because you’ve become a nascent soul old monster?” Xue Jianfeng couldn’t help but smile when he saw his expression. He looked at Bing Wuqing as if he was looking at a clown, a clown that he was about to take revenge on.

“So you mean you can deal with me?” The corners of Bing Wuqing’s mouth also curled up.

“Of course. Otherwise, wouldn’t all my saliva have been in vain?” Xue Jianfeng’s expression became more and more complacent. However, before he could make a move, his body suddenly felt heavy. A thick layer of ice suddenly covered his body, making it difficult for him to move. Even lifting his hand became a luxury.

This time, the power of the merciless ice was more than a level stronger than the last time. Although Bing Wuqing’s cultivation level didn’t improve in the past few months, and she didn’t take the two Supreme-grade golden elixirs that Lin Yi gave her, it was a fact that haste makes waste. It was just that some people could control it, and some people couldn ‘t. An absolutely rational person like Bing Wuqing naturally belonged to the former.

Just from the effects alone, other than the poison, the Central’s modified pill was indeed much stronger than the normal ones. Even Lin Yi’s own top quality pills couldn’t compare to it, but it had a huge disadvantage-it consumed a lot of a person’s potential, and the direct consequence of it was that it would be hard for them to break through in the future, and their Foundation would be severely lacking.

Although Bing Wuqing wasn’t like Xue Jianfeng, who only relied on the core pill to increase his strength, he had still taken it once. If it weren’t for the fact that his natural talent was so strong that it was heaven-defying, no matter how many Supreme-grade pills Lin Yi gave him, it would all be in vain. To be honest, the fact that he was able to overcome the side effects of the core pill and break through to the nascent Soul Stage in such a short time was a shocking result, not to mention the others, even Lin Yi himself was shocked.

However, no matter how powerful and heaven-defying Bing Wuqing’s aptitude was, the side effects were still present. He hadn’t felt it clearly before, but it had gradually manifested after he had advanced to the nascent Soul Stage. The most direct manifestation of it was that it wasn’t as easy to break through as before. With his superb aptitude, he could easily break through if he took some medicine, but it wasn’t realistic now.

Of course, this was partly due to the fact that it was more difficult to break through to the original level. However, the side effects still existed.

It was a good thing that he had that half a spirit grass as a Foundation, which had reduced the side effects to a large extent. Now that it had been specially stabilized for a few months, it could basically be considered offset. As his cultivation level became more and more stable, even though they were both in the early stage of the nascent soul realm, Bing Wuqing’s true strength had increased by a lot compared to a few months ago. Even if she were to face an expert in the early stage of the nascent soul realm who was more experienced, she would only be stronger than him!

That was why Xue Jianfeng had come back with great confidence, and Bing Wuqing, who had expected this, was also very confident.

“Hmph, Hmph, you have the nerve to use such a small trick in front of me?” Xue Jianfeng, who was trapped in the ice, suddenly snorted. A powerful Zhen Qi suddenly burst out from his body, and the ice instantly shattered on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the expressionless Bing Wuqing’s eyes suddenly widened. This guy wasn’t at the early stage of the nascent soul realm, but was actually at the peak of the early stage!

“Are you scared?” Xue Jianfeng was very pleased with his shocked expression, and said proudly,””How is it? Do you feel a little regretful now? It’s a pity that it’s too late to regret it. You’ve already taken this step, and there’s no turning back. To be honest, I really didn’t expect that a rational person like you, Bing Wuqing, would one day be so hot-headed that you’d actually walk on such a path of no return. Before I really make a move, why don’t you tell me your thoughts?”

The peak of the early stage of the original level was his greatest source of confidence!

In the past few months, he had not been recuperating from his injuries, but had been further strengthening and upgrading at the acceptance Center. The peak of the early Yuanying stage was the result of this strengthening and upgrading.

Because of the existence of Sky Class Island professor zou and the others, Central’s technology for mass production of nascent soul masters had long been very mature.
