Chapter 173: Sand Crossbow Water Sword

Pei Ye looked towards the Black Chi when he realized this. The Black Chi did not speak, retracting the dispersing vast Chi Fire, and darkness enveloped them once again, leaving only two luminescent spots floating in front of them.

Unable to draw upon the Mysterious Qi meant that neither of them could replenish their energy from the surrounding environment, leaving only Pei Ye's True Qi and the Black Chi's Spiritual Mystery available for use. However, both of these had been substantially depleted in the recent battle.

The darkness around them seemed to become much heavier all of a sudden.

Pei Ye barely managed to regulate his blood and Qi, as he tried to grasp his sword and swung it in the water. Behind him, the Chi dragon's scales dissolved and its clawed head retreated, transforming back into a small kitten. In this world, where Spiritual Mystery does not circulate with the breath, maintaining such a divine form was a significant drain.
