The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

375: Feng Wu Fights the Two Corpses

Xiao Chun was a weapon first and foremost.
She had to learn how to use his powers instead of letting him go out and play freely.
Continuing to do so wasn’t good for their development.

Before leaving Xingguang Holy academy, her master had told her she needed to learn to wield Xiao Chun’s power.
Xiao Chun was a weapon, and a weapon needed its wielder in order to reach its maximum potential.

Even though Xiao Chun looked extremely powerful, he couldn’t exert his full powers.
He needed a master to activate his abilities.

Feng Wu hadn’t had the chance to practice with Xiao Chun, but here was a chance to use him in a fight.

The popcorn munchers across the way were shocked at Feng Wu engaging the two corpses.
None of them expected her to survive the fight fighting alone.

It was a pity such a beautiful cutie would be cut down by two corpses.

Just a while ago, the forty of them had tried attacking the corpses.
Six of them died just to buy everyone else enough time to escape.
Now Feng Wu was fighting the corpses alone; it was a foregone conclusion.

Though Zo was the only one worried about Feng Wu, he believed she would survive.
He didn’t think a master of a rui beast would die that easily.

White energy flew out of Xiao Chun at the two corpses, and although they felt the frightening power of the energy being emitted, they were unphased, and remained solely interested in killing.
They simply didn’t feel fear.

They roared at the skies, hurting everyone’s ears and stressing their minds.

“Oh my god! Their voices are unbearable!”

“It’s just awful!”

The two people in the middle of crossing the chasm nearly fell off from the shock.
They regained their balance and sped up, all the while wishing in their hearts their parents had given them four legs instead of two.

But did Xiao Chun’s energy beam actually hit the two corpses? Of course not! It only hit their afterimages.
They had already avoided the attack, but they were so fast, they left an afterimage.

Feng Wu listened to the sounds of their movements and was able to turn around just in time to block a blow from behind, however it forced her to take several steps back.

The two corpses were powerful and had bodies that were strong enough to crack rocks with one blow.

She switched to the Nine Profound sword art style after stabilizing her footing.
It was a sword art her master taught her and was one of the strongest she could use.
It was comparable to a holy sword art in strength.

In her current world, holy sword arts were trapped inside a person’s cultivation base.
And without that base, it was generally difficult to use holy sword arts.
Even if someone did manage to use a holy sword art, they would damage their bodies from the force of it.

In essence, it was like dealing one thousand damage to the enemy only to suffer eight hundred damage yourself, so unless it was a life or death situation, no one would voluntarily use a holy sword art if their own level was too far below a holy level.[notes]

“She’s going to suffer so much damage from that.
I would never have imagined a little girl would have a holy sword art.”

“If you go and save that girl now, maybe she’ll thank you by sharing the art with you.”

“Go to hell.
A holy level sword art is awesome, but I want to live for more years still!”

Most of the people already across were sword users, so the holy sword art was hugely tempting to them.
The highest level swordmasters on the continent were heavenly swordmasters who used holy level sword arts.
There weren’t many holy level arts, but the greater families did have a small collection of them.

Thinking about a little girl like Feng Wu having one set their hearts on fire.
But that flame dimmed somewhat when they thought about the odds of her dying.
Could they pick it up from her storage ring after she died?

They looked at the two corpses staring at them from across the cliff.

No. . .  better not think about it.
Life was more precious.

Feng Wu and the corpses executed hundreds of moves, all within the blink of an eye.

Feng Wu held Xiao Chun in one hand.
Xiao Chun was surrounded by his powerful purification aura, so although he wasn’t allowed to eat the miasma, he was allowed to purify the evil spirits released by the corpses.
His purification was extremely powerful and left cuts on their bodies wherever they made contact.

Zo, watching from a distance, was surprised by Feng Wu’s strength.
He knew she was strong, but he never expected her to be so strong.

On top of that, she also had a powerful sword art and an extraordinary sword in her hand.
It was too easy for others to covet.
He looked over across the tightrope, and sure enough several sword users were staring at Feng Wu’s sword.

It was obvious from a glance the sword was extraordinary, capable as it was of injuring the two corpses.
It was probably a holy level sword, and a holy level sword was strong temptation for some.

Even the greater families would be interested and would most likely send people to try to retrieve it.

Zo’s deductions weren’t that surprising.
His eyes lit up when he saw that the last two people had finally finished crossing.
He immediately shouted, “Feng Wu! Get over! You can cross now!”

Zo could see Feng Wu was strong, but her strength was still a ways away from the two corpses.
She couldn’t hope to be their opponents at her current level, so whether she would be injured or killed was still up for debate.
The best Zo could do was find an opportunity for her to escape.

Feng Wu bit her lip and spoke without looking over, “You go first!” She couldn’t leave yet, she had to buy more time for Zo.

Rui Baby riding on her head turned to look anxiously over at Zo.
Hopefully this kid wouldn’t say something stupid like “Let’s stay together!”

Zo wasn’t a pig teammate.
He was a good friend, so of course he wasn’t going to say something as stupid as that.
He immediately ran to the rope and tried testing his balance on it before walking to the opposite cliff slowly.

The bottomless swirling white fog made it impossible to tell what was below. . .
