Avoid Yandere Constellation-Chapter 1094: Cannon Fodder Should Have the Awareness of Cannon Fodder
Chapter 1094: Cannon Fodder Should Have the Awareness of Cannon Fodder
Naturally, Su Jingzhen was unaware that his identity had already been exposed to the Sword Master.
He also didn't know that the higher-ups of the various factions had already set a grand plan in motion to target him.
As he followed Lin Ying into the Sword Qi Corridor, he was immediately enveloped by an extremely sharp sword qi.
Looking around, the place resembled a sunless underworld.
The sky was gray and shrouded in a layer of fog.
Just as he had initially imagined, it was a vast space, but the overall atmosphere was desolate and lifeless.
They stood on the ground, with endless ruins and withered old trees in the distance.
The space was filled with a mix of decaying yet dense spiritual energy and various sharp sword intents.
If an ordinary cultivator were here, merely comprehending the sword intents permeating the void would likely allow them to grasp many powerful sword techniques.
Su Jingzhen's divine consciousness spread out, but within a radius of several dozen miles, he didn't detect the presence of any other teams.
"In the Sword Qi Corridor, this area is probably a very remote region. We should head towards the center. The opportunity I seek is also in the central area,"
Lin Ying said, her excitement growing once again after entering the Sword Qi Corridor.
Without waiting for Su Jingzhen and the others to ask, she continued, "The so-called Sword Qi Corridor is actually the resting place of the past sages of Sword Land.
Their legacies remain here, and through the unique techniques of Sword Land, some special physiques can also be inherited.
This time, my target is one such special physique!"
As she spoke, Lin Ying's tone grew increasingly excited.
Su Jingzhen and the others were slightly shocked.
They had thought that Lin Ying was after some kind of treasure or powerful legacy.
They hadn't expected her ambition to extend to a special physique.
But upon reflection, no legacy could compare to the power of an innate special physique.
For example, Qiu Yaoyao's Heavenly Dragon Tribulation Body and Yan Xia's Water Spirit Saint Body-these special physiques allowed their cultivation to progress at an astonishing rate.
However, they were curious as to what special body Lin Ying was aiming for.
Su Jingzhen knew that Zhang Xiu could activate the Jian Ling physique, and Saintess Qing Yue seemed to be able to do the same.
Therefore, Lin Ying couldn't possibly have the audacity to compete with Saintess Qing Yue.
As if sensing their curiosity, Lin Ying added, "My target is a special physique called the 'Shadow Immortal Spirit Body'.
Ever since I started cultivating after my spiritual awakening, I've known that I have the potential for a special physique.
However, it has never been fully awakened. I changed my name to Lin Ying to remind myself that I have the potential to awaken this physique."
As she spoke, a hint of resentment flashed in her tone and her aura suddenly became elusive and eerie.
Su Jingzhen and the others were stunned for a moment.
This was most likely her true demeanor.
On the surface, she was the radiant and righteous Flying Snow Sword Immortal, but in reality, she was an innate shadow assassin.
Clearly, Lin Ying had been hiding her true strength all along.
Su Jingzhen couldn't help but sigh.
Among the countless disciples of a major power and the rank of the Ten Great Saintesses, it was not easy for anyone to rise to prominence.
Even the lowest-ranked Saintess possessed such cunning and strength.
It was hard to imagine how powerful Saintess Qing Yue must be.
At the same time, Su Jingzhen felt a slight sense of relief.
He had always subconsciously felt that his rapid advancement and various displays of power were too outrageous, making him a potential target for old monsters who might want to dissect him.
But now, it seemed that there were plenty of outrageous individuals, and he was merely one of the more conspicuous ones.
Su Jingzhen then asked curiously, "So, is Hong Yu also targeting this physique?"
Lin Ying shook her head.
"Not necessarily. These special physiques aren't something that just anyone can get. It depends on fate.
The reason I've set my sights on the Shadow Immortal Spirit Body is that long ago, I could sense a faint connection with it in the Sword Qi Corridor.
It subtly resonated with me. However, most people don't know about it."
After a pause, she added, "As for Junior Sister Hong Yu, her ultimate target is me. Whatever I want, she will do her best to sabotage it.
If given the chance, she wouldn't hesitate to kill me.
The position of Sword Land's Saintess is always limited to ten. If I die, she will secure her place among the Ten Great Saintesses".
Su Jingzhen nodded silently.
He roughly understood the situation.
Lin Ying wanted to obtain the Shadow Immortal Spirit Body, while he was focused on finding Zhang Xiu.
Since these special bodies were generally located in the central area of the Sword Qi Corridor, their goals didn't conflict.
As they discussed, the group rushed towards the central area of the Sword Qi Corridor.
The peripheral area was vast, and they didn't encounter any other teams on the way.
However, as they approached the central area, the sword qi permeating the void became denser and more powerful.
The other four members of the group weren't sword cultivators, and their defenses weren't strong.
Their skin began to sting, and they had to form protective barriers just to survive the environment.
In contrast, Su Jingzhen and the others moved with ease.
The four of them felt increasingly bitter.
At this point, winning Lin Ying's favor was the least of their worries.
If they could reach their destination without becoming a burden or being abandoned by Lin Ying, it would be a blessing for them.
As Mystic Immortal Realm cultivators, they were considered experts in the Emperor Realm and could dominate smaller regions. But now, for the first time, they felt completely weak.
"Saintess, the sword intent ahead is getting sharper. The four of us were injured yesterday and haven't fully recovered yet. If a battle breaks out ahead, we might become a burden.
Perhaps we should stay here and search for opportunities on our own?" one of them suggested nervously.
Cultivators, especially those who had reached a certain level of cultivation, often had accurate premonitions.
The four of them looked at the desolate, misty landscape ahead of them and seemed to see their bleak future.
They were truly afraid. No matter how great the rewards or opportunities were, they weren't worth risking their lives for.
Hearing this, Lin Ying suddenly stopped.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled at the four of them.
Her smile was breathtakingly beautiful, but it felt unsettling to the four of them.
"What are you saying? Since we are a team, we will enter together, leave together, and act together. As for the sharp sword intent in the void, that's my fault," Lin Ying said.
As she spoke, she formed a hand seal and seven illusory small swords appeared in the void.
These swords flew towards Su Jingzhen and the others and merged with their bodies.
Immediately, Su Jingzhen and the others could no longer feel the sharp sword intent in the void.
It was as if Lin Ying had single-handedly shielded them from it.
Su Jingzhen was once again astonished.
The techniques of Sword Land were indeed impressive.
At least within the Sword Qi Corridor, the Sword Land disciples had a significant advantage.
At the same time, he inwardly sneered.
After entering the Sword Qi Corridor, Lin Ying - or rather, all the core disciples of Sword Land - gradually showed their true colors.
These four had come this far, but now they wanted to play it safe. How ridiculous. Cannon fodder should have the consciousness of cannon fodder.
Like him, Qiu Yaoyao, and Shengana, they wouldn't say much.
But if Lin Ying truly dared to treat the three of them as cannon fodder, she would surely regret it.
Lin Ying then smiled and said, "Now, the four of you should have no worries."
