Chapter 414: The Weakest Participant and The Weakest Team!

The invisible male cultivator slapped his own body several times to smack away Little Loki, but Little Loki agilely dodged all of his attacks by jumping to his right shoulder, the top of his head, or his left shoulder while kept biting and scratching him.

All of Little Loki's attacks could only leave some light wounds on the invisible male cultivator, but it made Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy knew the location of the invisible male cultivator.

Of course, Little Loki could easily kill or devour this invisible male cultivator, but it did not want to spoil Tang Li Xue, and this weak male cultivator did not even qualified for it.

Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could usually sense anyone or anything invisible in a radius several tens of meters from them with [Extrasensory Perception], but right now, they could only rely on their [Spirit Perception] which could only vaguely sense two or three steps from them.

'Thankfully, I already equipped myself with [Critical Strikers] and [Shadow Striders] before climbing this Cang Yang Mountain. It seems Equipment Skills can still be used as usual here.' Tang Li Xue thought as she used [Snow Dance Steps] to get closer to the invisible male cultivator.

When Tang Li Xue reached the invisible male cultivator and ran right beside him, the invisible male cultivator threw his fist toward Tang Li Xue's chest.

[Angry Wolf Fist]!

Tang Li Xue could see the shadow of the wolf angrily dash toward her while bared its fangs, ready to tear her body to pieces.

Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to use her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] and threw her palm to meet with the shadow of an angry wolf.

But when the shadow of the angry wolf pounced toward Tang Li Xue to clash with her palm, the shadow of the angry wolf only harmlessly passed her palm and body as if she was only an illusion.

Of course, the shadow of the angry wolf was not actually passed through Tang Li Xue's body like when she used [Ethereal Form].

[Drifting Cloud Palms] lies in its unpredictability and could easily be used to deceive the enemy's senses and sight.

Tang Li Xue was never planned to clash head-on with the invisible male cultivator's attack.

She already knew that her opponent was a lot stronger than her in this place, so she decided to use [Drifting Cloud Palms] to cleverly parry his attack instead.

Then she did not hesitate to use Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger Claw] to catch the invisible male cultivator's neck. It was clear that she planned to kill her enemy by crushing his neck with this move.

In this kind of situation where everyone was a lot stronger than her, she could no longer afford to be lenient to anyone. It was her that would be killed sooner or later if she still kept hesitating like usual.

The faint majestic roar of the tiger was echoed as Tang Li Xue's Qi formed a sharp tiger claw!

The invisible male cultivator quickly ducked and rolled on the ground to dodge Tang Li Xue's [Crouching Tiger Claw].

'Damn it! My martial art technique is a lot better than him, but he has high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivation, so he is not only much stronger than me but also much more agile. I cannot let him drag this fight any longer.' Tang Li Xue deduced while gnashed her teeth in anger.

There were no more people around them right now because all of the other cultivators already climbed to the higher area.

If Tang Li Xue wasted too much time fighting with this invisible male cultivator, all of the ancient jade emblems would be taken by the other cultivators.

Tang Li Xue glanced at her perfect copy and nodded toward her as a signal.

Their tiny action was realized by the invisible male cultivator, and he became wary toward Tang Li Xue's perfect copy in that instant.

Unfortunately for him, their signal was only Tang Li Xue's plan to distract his attention for a moment since she did not really need to give any signal to her perfect copy when their mind was already connected with each other.

[Shadow Flash]!

Tang Li Xue activated her equipment skill and teleported to the invisible male cultivator's shadow below his feet in that instant!

PPPUUUFFF~!!!

Tang Li Xue's [Crouching Tiger Claw] penetrated the invisible male cultivator's chest swiftly without any resistance, destroyed the invisible male cultivator's inner organs, including his heart.

Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and thought: 'Luckily, he did not wear any body protection. If not, I must use [Final Strike] to deal the finishing blow.'

That male cultivator was broken out from his invisible state, and he became visible again when he was dying. He stared at Tang Li Xue as if he found it strange and could not believe that Tang Li Xue could suddenly appear below him.

The blood flowed out profusely from his chest and mouth, and after a few seconds, the life in his eyes faded away as he finally lost his life.

Tang Li Xue pulled her hand from the male cultivator's chest, and his lifeless body fell limply onto the grassy ground.

Tang Li Xue still pondered for a while if she should bury or burn the male cultivator corpse to show some of her respect to him, but her perfect copy immediately called her: "Let's go! Come on, just leave his corpse there alone! I bet nobody would bother to bury anyone they kill here. We do not have much time anymore!"

Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth and flicked her finger toward the corpse. A tiny wisp of her deep-blue Flame of Pride flew toward the corpse and burned it to nothingness in only one or two seconds.

Little Loki already jumped back onto Tang Li Xue's right shoulder and sat there quietly after the male cultivator was killed by Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy hastily continued to climb the Cang Yang Mountain.

"You are still too soft! You must remember that we are the weakest cultivators here! When we are weaker than the others, we need to make it up with ruthlessness! No... Not only we are the weakest cultivators here, but we also have the least team members among the other cultivators." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy warned her real self.

Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes and replied: "I know... I know... But all of this delay was because of your fault before! Not me! You better not mention anything about... our origin and race here."

There was no limitation about the people who could enter Cang Yang Mountain, so there were many rich young masters that hiring Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators to help them. Many of them brought about thirty Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators as their bodyguards.

Even core disciples from the five Virtue Sects were grouping with other core disciples from their own sects. The Snow Fairy's team of White Crane Sect from before has more than ten high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators in her team.

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue's team only pathetically consisted of three people... One among them was her own perfect copy, while the other one was only a tiny black kitten.

Tang Li Xue's mood turned sour and gloomy when she realized it and grumbled in her heart: 'How the hell I could compete with the other with this kind of team?! Also, why are there only fifty complete ancient jade emblems?! There are too few of those emblems, but there are so many of us!'

"Nyaaaa~!!!"

The lazy Little Loki suddenly jumped out from Tang Li Xue's embrace again and waved her tiny paw toward Tang Li Xue as if it instructed Tang Li Xue to follow it.

"Eh? What happens, Little Loki? Don't tell me there is another cultivator that trying to ambush or follow us?!" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki with an urgent tone.

"Nyan... Nyaaaaw Mew..." Little Loki shook its tiny furry head and made a circle gesture with its tiny paw, then dashed toward the northwest.

The topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy was glittering brighter in excitement as they slowly glanced at each other and muttered: "The ancient jade emblem~!"

But they quickly closed each other mouths with their palm. Tang Li Xue covered her perfect copy's mouth, while her perfect copy covered the real Tang Li Xue's mouth.

Both of them quickly removed their palm, and hissed to silence each other: "SSSSHHHH~!!!"

Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quickly followed Little Loki from behind. After a few minutes, they finally arrived at the large trees, but there were already many cultivators there, and they fought fiercely against each other.

'Tsk, those people already arrived here first before us. One among them must have already taken the half of ancient jade emblem. What should we do now? Wait until both teams exhausted before we snatch the half of the ancient jade emblem from them or abandon it and search for another one?' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy asked while all of them hide inside nearby thick bushes.

Tang Li Xue caught Little Loki and hugged it, so Little Loki would not recklessly run toward the middle of the fierce battle between two teams.

After pondered for a while and made up a plan, Tang Li Xue finally decided and sent her instruction to her perfect copy: 'Let's snatch the half of the ancient jade emblem from them! There are too many cultivators here, and we would never know if we will really manage to find the ancient jade emblem before the others.'

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy nodded and replied: 'Actually, we can use [Shadow Walker] effect from [Shadow Striders] boots to stay invisible at night later, then try to snatch the complete ancient jade emblem from the other team. But I doubt that the other teams do not have any cultivators with martial art or spell to sense invisible enemies.'

'[Shadow Flash]'s cooldown already finished. But it can only make one of us teleport to any shadow 100 meters from us. You already know my plan, right?' Tang Li Xue sneered slyly and patted at her perfect copy's shoulder.

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy rolled her eyes and grumbled in dissatisfaction: 'So, it is my job again?! This is not fair!'
