Chapter 841: The Heart of a Sword Cultivator (One more chapter at 0:01, 4000)
“Who are you……”
Seeing the other person’s face, Yin Xuanyan’s brows relaxed slightly, and then he looked a little surprised: “Who is that person from Qingyu City? Oh, from Zhaoxu Exploration Company, his name is…”
【Thanks to Master Yin for still remembering me】
The young man in white said with a smile: [But you don’t have to remember my name, it’s not important at all]
“You want to challenge me?”
Noticing the aura of the person in front of him slowly rising, and the looming sense of danger, Yin Xuanyan sensed the other party’s desire for him, and he said seriously: “I can’t guarantee that I won’t hurt you.”
[You are really kind-hearted. I am different.]
The young man in white said with a smile, but just when he uttered the word ‘no’, Yin Xuanyan’s originally nonchalant expression suddenly changed, his eyes suddenly lit up, an extremely cold mysterious light suddenly lit up, and his sword ‘Xuan Yin Zhao’ was also unsheathed in an instant, and on the sword’s edge, a layer of condensed light lit up, making the light a little dim, thus revealing the sword light and sword aura of the color of Xuan Yin!
Condensed Qi is a beam, and divine will is a sword! This is the third level of the sword realm that Yin Xuanyan and Chen Yunfei had not used in the previous battle, which is better than the sword energy and sword will, the sword realm!
His sword skills have undoubtedly reached the Purple Mansion realm, and he is very skilled!
Without hesitation, he activated one of his trump cards. All seven orifices of Yin Xuanyan’s body were enveloped by the mysterious Yin energy. The snow and dust in the sky within a ten-mile radius all stopped and condensed. In the distorted halo, he was about to chop off the head of the young man in white with one sword!
However, this sword was blocked.
[I am here to kill you]
The fire of ignorance ignited, and the young man’s white clothes turned black. A big hand stretched out from the dark flames and blocked Yin Xuanyan’s sword energy.
“what?”
At this moment, Yin Xuanyan clearly saw a terrifying demon standing between heaven and earth, its shadow rotating like a clock hand. In front of it, everything will never stop and will never wait. Eternity will flow like the Yangtze River to the end of time. No one can stop it and it will go straight into a future that it cannot resist. No one can be an exception!
The demonic flames were raging, yet they contained a fundamental sacredness. The might of heaven and earth and the calamity of the demons seemed to merge into one, transforming into…
A holy demon!
The black flames pushed forward, and the surrounding snow, dust, and pumice, as well as the iron ground under the ice layer, were all lifted up, blown away, and collapsed in all directions.
At this moment, a round of moonlight also lit up in Yin Xuanyan’s Dantian and Purple Mansion, emitting a crisp sound of jade rings crisscrossing, and creating ripples on his sword energy!
The moon is the setting for the sun’s brilliance and the darkening of the dead! The moon is the sun’s final resting place. The sun’s brilliance is projected onto the heaven and earth and reflected in the moon. It is the extreme of yang and the birth of yin, the end of life and the beginning of death!
Youying Xuanzhen is a method of life and death that allows Yang to enter Yin, returns to life with Yin, eliminates death with life, and defeats the enemy with death!
At this moment, facing the crisis of life and death, Yin Xuanyan took half a step into the realm of Purple Mansion, and the Youying sword energy burst out. In his blue-green eyes, cracks appeared in everything. As long as he could cut it, no matter what magic weapon or body it was, or what magical power or technique it was, it would be split in two and dispersed into nothingness!
However, Yin Xuanyan was shocked to find that the flying snow from the sky to the towering silver mountains, all things in the world showed signs of death in front of him, but the black-clothed demon in front of him did not have any of that.
[Want to see my death? Unfortunately, we, the sons of the Holy Demon, are immortal and will live as long as the heavens.]
The Son of the Holy Demon laughed loudly, and the light green sword energy collided with the black flame. The green sword energy was immediately eroded and corroded, and Yin Xuanyan felt that his sword, the hand holding the sword, and even his shoulders and chest, all suddenly felt like they were about to fly and were absolutely out of control. He had to retreat quickly to prevent this feeling of erosion from continuing to spread.
But before he retreated far, he realized that the surrounding world had turned into a domain of devilish flames, with the Son of the Holy Devil in the center. It had become a domain of law, covering the world. If he could not defeat it, or find a flaw in the domain of law, there would be no way he could escape.
“Oops……”
Yin Xuanyan’s heart sank uncontrollably as he knew that there was a high probability that he was in great danger. It was ridiculous that he had been thinking about when he could surpass Chen Yunfei and prove himself in front of everyone. Now, it seemed like all those were just boring children’s games.
Mom…I’m sorry.
Closing his eyes, the memory of his short life flashed by, Yin Xuanyan looked solemn, but when he opened his eyes again, there was no confusion at all, all distracting thoughts were swept away.
The path of sword cultivation is one of death and no life!
Before the Son of the Holy Demon approached again, he flew up and swung the sword in his hand. Endless spiritual light shot up into the sky, and the magical powers and spiritual energy running through his body were the ultimate style of “Hua An Xuan Zhen Yin Shu Sword Canon”!
[The dark returns, and the glory finally dims]
The blinding green light was extremely dazzling for a moment, as if a bright blue sun was blooming on the earth, but then all the light was retracted and sank, turning into an extremely blue, dark, and pitch-black crescent!
The sun shines on the moon, life ends and death begins, the sky falls with dark light, and the moon is cut off with one sword!
boom! ! !
At the Silver Mountain Hub, almost everyone seemed to sense something, looking at the green light that suddenly lit up in that instant, and the terrifying pressure that shook the void.
“Someone has advanced to the Purple Palace?”
“It’s the Taiyin magical power! Xuanyin sword energy!”
“Is it Yin Xuanyan? Or…”
The center of Taixu.
Silver mountains bowed, the earth gave birth to the Eight Diagrams, and in the center of the many silver mountain arrays was an ancient altar. Originally, there should have been many Taoist temples created by the power of the void, but as time passed, the Taoist temples that were not maintained naturally dispersed, and only the oldest altar for offering sacrifices to the sky was left as the base.
Above the layers of stairs, in the center of the circular plaza, there is a pointed stone tablet piercing the sky. It is full of cracks and looks ancient and solemn. But now, with the arrival of a person, ancient inscriptions light up one after another, shaking the void, and the circular space-time fluctuations roll in all directions.
Zhou Changhe sat cross-legged with his back against the Taixu stele in meditation. He wanted to follow Brother Tianjian’s instructions and immediately enter the state, absorbing the purest Taixu power in the Taixu center to strengthen his soul, but he still opened his eyes at the sudden sword light in the distance.
“So, is there someone in the Purple Mansion? So soon?”
He asked in surprise, but Brother Tianjian’s tone suddenly dropped: “No! This is the moment when a sword cultivator is determined to die, and he will die with his great enemy with one sword to kill me. I was… Damn it, it was a demon!”
His tone became more and more solemn: “What kind of demon is this? How could it appear in this Taixu hub without a trace? It made a sword cultivator with such potential to swing his sword regardless of life and death? Something is wrong, Changhe, speed up, we must achieve the Purple Mansion here as quickly as possible!” “Only in this way can you use the Taixu node here to escape without being tracked by anyone in the first place… Only in this way can you survive!”
Hearing what Brother Tianjian said, Zhou Changhe naturally understood that the situation began to change rapidly. His heart sank and he immediately began to absorb the power of Taixu: “But to be honest, this fluctuation… Soon, people from all over the region, including the sword cultivators and the demons who are fighting, will come here, right?”
“So if you can’t do it, you’ll die.” Brother Tianjian said calmly: “This is the time for you to fight with your back against the wall. Be brave, this is how we sword cultivators work!”
Having said this, Zhou Changhe had no time to think any further. He immediately began to absorb the power of Taixu in preparation for a breakthrough into Zifu.
Around the altar, a translucent gray light shield lit up, and waves of tangible Taixu tides continuously radiated towards the surroundings, merging with the entire Temple of Heaven and the Silver Mountain array.
“Don’t worry, as long as you are in the Temple of Heaven, there will be no chance of being disturbed by anyone.”
Brother Tianjian knew very well that this place was originally called “Tiantai”, which was set up for the qualified Tianjiao cultivators in ancient times to break through the realm of Taixu Zifu, and it could also guide Zifu cultivators from the lower world to “ascend”. In the ancient books of the Dao Court, after the Immortal Foundation, it is the realm of ascending to immortality. For some small worlds and natives, Zifu is enough to be called immortal gods.
In order to ensure the safety of these newly promoted immortals and gods, and to prevent them from advancing and destroying the surrounding areas, the Temple of Heaven is protected by the extremely powerful Taixu Array.
Zhou Changhe was not particularly worried. After all, just like what Brother Tianjian said, if he didn’t achieve the Purple Palace, he would die. However, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: “The Daoting era… I really don’t know how glorious that era was. If the immortals of that era saw the current Tianyuan Realm, they would definitely be extremely disappointed.”
Disappointed…?
Zhou Changhe was just speaking from his heart, not targeting anyone, but Brother Tianjian remained silent. He was indeed a sword cultivator from the Daoting era, and when he saw the current situation of high technology and low living in the Tianyuan Realm, and the corporate power being eroded by the Heavenly Demon, he did feel a sense of loss in his heart.
But it’s not because the future they are protecting is such a dark world as it is now.
It is because they failed to protect everything that later generations were forced to fall into such a situation.
“If I could have killed more demons back then…”
He sighed in his heart: “If I could protect Tianyuan and Huaixu…”
“Perhaps, everything is not as it seems.”
But all of this only applies to those who have not ascended to heaven and achieved anything in the sea of desire.
In Brother Tianjian’s heart, besides doubts, there was also a hidden anger towards those True Lords, Heavenly Lords and Heavenly Masters.
“What on earth have you guys been guarding behind us?!”
“Everything has changed suddenly, the world is declining – I know that the Tianyuan Realm has suffered a great disaster, but you are immortals, True Lords, Heavenly Lords and Heavenly Venerables, and you are great cultivators who were revered as immortals and gods when they traveled through the myriad realms in the past! Why can you sit back and watch all this happen as if it were natural, and not change it?!”
This anger was brewing, but Brother Tianjian did not let it interfere with his emotions.
He could not remember clearly whether he was a True Lord or a Heavenly Lord in his previous life. It seemed that he had just broken through, or was he fighting with a borrowed sword? But in any case, he was not at the Heavenly Lord level.
The four Heavenly Lords of the Tianyuan Realm are the new rising stars. Since they have achieved the realm of the Primordial God, which is extremely rare in the entire Dao Court and difficult to achieve even for the top masters in ancient times, they can’t be stupid people, nor can they be the kind of people who live in disgrace and indulge in depravity.
Even if I become a demon, I will definitely be a mad and rebellious demon that devours the heavens and the earth and becomes me.
“and many more……”
Upon realizing this, Brother Tian Jian was suddenly shocked: “This four-city competition allows many new geniuses to advance to the Purple Palace here, gain the Taixu anchor point, and then use the cave heaven for their own use and seize a piece of heaven and earth… Could it be that?!”
“Are these four Heavenly Lords really going to devour the heavens and the earth and refine all things for their own use?”
“But if that’s the case, why do they have to keep the human race? It’s a waste of time and energy, and it’s meaningless as blood food. If they insist on proving the new way, there are ten thousand other ways to control it!”
This conjecture and possibility is too horrifying, but there are many doubts and there is no evidence to prove it. Brother Tianjian can only calm down and sense the outside world to protect Zhou Changhe.
Zhou Changhe was very fast in refining the power of the void. Although he originally had average talent, he had an extra talent for the power of the void after he had the body of a demon. After all, the demons were the ultimate demonic disasters that crossed the void and penetrated the boundless void. Their bodies could naturally adapt to the void environment. With the help of this body as a whetstone, Zhou Changhe was actually more efficient than the average genius.
The Taixu power at the Taixu Stele, although not as pure as the top-level treasures like the Taixu Star Crystal, which also contains the Taoist rhyme of life and death, yin and yang, is inexhaustible.
But just as Zhou Changhe was practicing rapidly, many contestants from the outside world who were participating in the Four Cities Competition also arrived one after another.
“That person under the stone tablet… is a demon!?”
Chen Yunfei, Qi Luoyang and Feng Yuxuan were the first to arrive. As soon as they arrived, Qi Luoyang noticed a hazy figure absorbing the power of the void to practice under the Taixu Jieyin Stele on the Temple of Heaven where the mountains were worshipping. “Bat wings and deformed limbs, even if it is not a demon, it is definitely a demonized demon body. In short, it is not a human!”
Zhou Changhe’s practice had reached a critical moment at this time. He could no longer suppress his demonic energy. The gray-black mist around his body flowed and leaped up like the thickest ink, faintly forming an evil totem behind him. According to the plan, Zhou Changhe would use the method of beheading corpse demons in the future to kill these demonic energies as his own evil insects, transforming them into Xuanyuan Qi to serve as nourishment for his practice of the path of immortality. However, that was a matter of the future after all. Now, he was a purebred dangerous demon!
“It has to be stopped!”
Feng Yuxuan’s expression was cold at this moment, but there was a hint of fire in his eyes.
The divine ban eliminates disasters, the mysterious chapters subdue demons, the true scriptures save people from suffering, and the righteous Dharma protects the world.
This seal…defends the truth!
“The Seal of the True Spirit of the World, with the Flame Melting to Illuminate the World” is a first-rate righteous method for defending the way of the world. It is second only to the “Mysterious Light Purifies the World and Subdues the Demons” which specializes in this method against the evil spirits. At this moment, behind Feng Yuxuan, there appeared a towering giant god made up of countless talismans and patterns, like a script written in cursive script. Even in this ice and snow, it still exhaled endless flames. The terrifying heat melted the ice and snow on the surrounding peaks, and the snow all over the sky turned into boiling rain, turning the sky and the earth into a hazy mist!
