Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 299: Love is hard to bear, yin and yang are great

Above the South China Sea, a ninth-level Jindan cultivator intimidates the whole world. All cultivators from all over the world bow down to him, and no one dares to challenge his power.

Lu Cheng didn't dare to do so either, because he couldn't understand how Luo Ji'an died.

Lu Cheng had fought with Luo Ji'an before, and although he was defeated, Lu Cheng knew that he was just taking advantage of the situation. If he didn't have the ghost baby incarnation and only relied on his own magic power, he could at most survive under Luo Ji'an's sword, but it would be impossible for him to match him.

Under such circumstances, Lu Cheng did not dare to take any action and waste his own life.

Wei Shuyi and Ming Yuchen, two great Nascent Soul cultivators, looked around. Now, Taoist Mingkong was holding three spiritual islands, including the extremely important Lingxi Island. Wei Shuyi and Ming Yuchen really didn't want to give up.

But they could not do anything else as they were anxious. Now, two of their mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, Ding Yunzhou and Yan Jingrong, had one won and one lost.

Ding Yunzhou's Nascent Soul escaped far away, and Yan Jingrong had already escaped from the calamity. Given her temperament, there was no way she would go out to fight with swords again.

Among their six Nascent Soul early stage cultivators, Luo Ji'an from the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect had already died in the battle. The remaining ones were Lu Cheng from the Huanyun Valley, Gui Dongmei from the Bihai Pavilion, Huang Yuanzhi from the Lanjiang Sect, Han Sujin from the Bailu Academy, and a wandering demon cultivator with a mysterious origin.

But from the looks of the two Nascent Soul cultivators, neither Huang Yuanzhi, Lu Cheng, nor the demonic cultivator had any intention of taking action. Gui Dongmei had already achieved her goal and escaped from the calamity, and she knew that her sword skills were far less fierce than Luo Ji'an's.

It might be okay to use treasure to derive formations and to transform formations into worlds to attack unexpectedly, but in front of a high-level cultivator like Mingkong Taoist, if your details are known, you won't have any chance of winning.

However, at this moment, Han Sujin flew out beyond the crowd and faced the direct descendant cultivator of the Nether God Cave.

"Su Jin, come back."

Wei Shuyi, the great monk of Bailu Academy, changed his expression and shouted sternly.

Han Sujin, the female fairy turned around, held the magic formula, bowed deeply to Mr. Wei, and said:
"Su Jin thanks you for your teachings and advice over the years, but Master Luo died because of me. Although I have no romantic feelings for him, I consider him a close friend. As a scholar, how can I just sit back and watch my close friend die?

But I feel ashamed of the sect's cultivation over the years."

"Su Jin, even though a hundred generations of hatred can still be avenged, why are you in such a hurry?"

Others are not Nascent Soul cultivators of Bailu Academy, so they will die if they die. Han Sujin is now overwhelmed by the calamity, so Mr. Wei cannot take action at this moment, otherwise, he would have taken this person away and saved him from the calamity.

"Sir, why did you lie to me? Mingkong Taoist is the direct descendant of Mingshen Cave. If today passes, Su Jin may not be able to avenge her best friend in this lifetime. She will be haunted by demons from now on, which will still affect her future practice."

Orthodox practitioners focus on perfecting their physical and mental practices both inside and outside. Once this balance is lost, they will be entangled by inner demons, and their spirits will be disturbed from then on. Not to mention cultivation, they will be afraid that they will live a life worse than death for the rest of their lives.

The cultivators of the demonic path pay much attention to the obsession of their inner demons. It is said that the inner demons improve by leaps and bounds every day, and this is used to promote cultivation, to cut off the mundane world, and to eliminate worldly thoughts.

The key can also be vaguely seen from the respective styles of Luo Ji'an and Han Sujin.

As for Mr. Wei, saying these words on the spot was already the limit. Moreover, when he saw Han Sujin's expression at that moment, he knew that it was useless to persuade her further. He could only sigh, bow his head and wave.

"Looking back on the past, I had a good friend from the Taoist sect come to visit me. At that time, Su Jin, as a disciple, served tea and wine and took care of us. The old drunkard drank a little too much and once said to me, "This little girl is beautiful, but if a girl is too beautiful, she may have a hard time in love in the future."

For hundreds of years afterwards, Su Jin devoted himself to cultivation and never paid attention to anything else. I thought that old drunkard was just talking nonsense after drinking, but I didn't expect that his words would come true today. I hate it."

When he said this, Mr. Wei gritted his teeth in hatred.

Han Sujin was born into an excellent family, had excellent aptitude for cultivation, extraordinary comprehension, was loyal to the sect and kind to his elders. He was the future head of Bailu Academy. He was on guard day and night, but he didn't expect to be implicated by a sword madman and suffer a disaster.

When Han Sujin was associating with Luo Ji'an and others, going out to gain experience and hone their Taoism, the elders of Bailu Academy and Wei Shuyi also knew about it.

But they all believed that with the talents and character of Luo Ji'an and others, it was impossible for them to let Han Sujin fall into a love disaster, so they just let it go. Now it is too late to regret.

"I admire you for avenging your friend, but please be careful with your ruthless sword."

Taoist Mingkong did not expect that in the end it was the fairy Han Sujin who stood up and sacrificed her life to avenge Luo Ji'an.

But he didn't care. He was so calm and composed, as if the words "war" and "danger" had nothing to do with him.

This absolute confidence in his own Taoism made Lu Cheng frown slightly, and attracted the attention of Gui Dongmei, Huang Yuanzhi, and the mysterious black-robed monk.

Is the Taoism of the God of the Underworld really unique in the world?
"Fellow Taoist, be careful."

After Han Sujin performed the ceremony, a small black and white fan appeared in her hand and she waved it gently.

Two strange winds, one black and one white, suddenly appeared around the female cultivator. They blew in the air and turned into two huge hurricanes in a very short time.

Then Han Sujin waved the Yin-Yang Fan in her hand again, and two huge storms rushed towards Mingkong Taoist, like a natural disaster, created by Yuanying Zhenjun's wave of his hand.

Taoist Mingkong stood behind his two sixth-level puppets, and the three of them performed a sword formation together, called the Three Talents Demon Refining Sword Formation.

Taoist Mingkong provided his spiritual consciousness as the leader, and two sixth-order puppets provided mana. When the formation was formed, the mana was connected and the sword energy was superimposed. The power of this formation was enough to rival that of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage, or even surpass it.

Three sword lights slashed towards one of the hurricanes, but in the storm, a dragon's head suddenly emerged and pounced towards the sword light.

It turned out that there was a spirit dragon hidden in each of the two storms, which was extremely powerful, agile and ferocious.

At the same time, Han Sujin's sword light also broke through the air and slashed down from above.

This woman practiced the most orthodox Haoran Zhengqi Jue of Bailu Academy. Her sword light was agile and nimble, but once it came into contact with the real person, one would find that the sword force was as heavy as a mountain.

Moreover, the great and righteous energy can ward off evil spirits, water and fire, and can restrain many Taoist magic skills in the world.

The righteous energy of heaven and earth is mixed and flowing, and this energy is used to forge the power of the sword, which is awe-inspiring and difficult to offend. It is truly extremely powerful.

"So that's how it is. With two wind dragons restraining them, the flying swords are flying above to make a thunderous attack. This is indeed difficult for ordinary cultivators to resist."

Finding that he could not cut it for the moment, Taoist Mingkong immediately chose to withdraw the Demon Refining Sword Light.

Set up the sword formation with yourself as the center and hold your ground.

Two tornadoes kept spinning around Taoist Mingkong, wind dragons were biting, heavy flying swords were slashing, the power of this female True Lord of Bailu Academy seemed to be even stronger than that of the demon sword Luo Ji'an.

The dusk deepened, and the last rays of the setting sun in the sky gradually turned blood-red.

Taoist Mingkong stepped into the air, formed seals with his hands, and chanted scriptures and incantations. Two sixth-level puppets followed him like shadows, protecting him.

The sword light flickered, and the Three Elements Demon Refining Sword Formation was set up.

This sword formation is like the entrance to a chaotic cave that swallows up the sky and the earth. The sharp edges condensed from the brilliant sword energy are like a dense spider web, leaving terrifying sword marks in the void.

The female cultivator Han Sujin had a solemn expression on her face during the confrontation. She waved the Yin-Yang Treasure Fan in her hand. The fan was like surging wind and clouds, whistling out, causing the surrounding heaven and earth energy to change like a tide, and merging into two hurricanes, causing two wind-attributed dragons to roar and rush towards Mingkong Taoist.

Even if they are broken up, they will quickly reunite and regenerate, with no let-up in ferocity and without end.

This is undoubtedly an extremely powerful ancient treasure, which contains two dragon spirits.

Most of the magic weapon spirits have the spirits of monsters and ghosts sealed inside them, which greatly increases the power of the magic weapon and allows it to transform into the spirit's appearance and magical powers when it was alive.

High-level weapon spirits even have their own independent intelligence, which can be said to be a shortcut to quickly increase the power of magic weapons.

A small number of weapon spirits are created by the cultivator's own will and magic power, after years of nurturing. This type of weapon spirit is less ferocious and more spiritual, but its power may not be stronger than the former, it just has higher potential.

With the Yin-Yang Treasure Fan as the flying sword floated beside him, a faint golden light gradually appeared on the sword. Han Sujin held the seal in front of his forehead and muttered something. The Haoran Zhengqi Seal was stimulated from his body and transferred to the flying sword. As a result, the golden light on the sword became stronger and the sword's fierce power almost soared into the sky.

The two forces collided violently in mid-air, as the wind dragon and the Three Talents Demonic Sword Qi entangled and strangled each other.

Han Sujin's flying sword slashed down from time to time, increasing her winning advantage. However, as time went on, Taoist Mingkong's sword formation seemed to have the upper hand. Within the sword formation, there was a faint, darker and deeper sword power condensing.

Clang. Finally, with the sound of a sword, a deep and dark ray of light suddenly burst out from the sword formation protecting Taoist Mingkong's body.

The sword energy was like tearing the void, directly piercing through the wind-attributed dragon hurricane summoned by Han Sujin's Yin-Yang Treasure Fan, and pointed directly at Han Sujin's own physical body and soul, right between his eyebrows.

Han Sujin's face turned pale, and her flying sword fell and slashed down, and her body involuntarily retreated.

She inexplicably felt that she could not block this sword. The opponent's sword light seemed to be a mortal enemy created for the Haoran Zhengqi Jue. The magic sword technique restrained it everywhere.

Clang.

This was indeed the case. A flying sword containing Han Sujin's great magical power was directly chopped away and could not be blocked.

A hint of pride flashed in Taoist Mingkong's eyes, and then he exerted force again with the magic formula in his hand, and the sharp edge became more fierce, as if it wanted to completely defeat Han Sujin.

However, at this critical moment, a look of determination appeared on Han Sujin's face. She formed a sword gesture with her left finger and struck Dantian violently. She bit her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of blood mist at the flying sword. The sword body and sword energy suddenly surged, glowing with unprecedented light.

The sword fight between the two has entered the final stage, and life and death depend on this moment.

However, Taoist Mingkong undoubtedly had more advantages. He caught a flaw in the change of Han Sujin's sword light, and immediately controlled the condensed sword energy to attack at a faster speed, with the tip pointing directly at Han Sujin's dantian.

puff.

Finally, with a sharp sword sound, the dark sword energy directly penetrated Han Sujin's body protection magic power. One must know that the Haoran Zhengqi Jue of Bailu Academy has the innate ability to protect the body. For a cultivator who has achieved a small success in practicing it, its defense is no less than that of a defensive magic weapon of the same level.

The sword energy broke through the body and the Nascent Soul collapsed.

That female immortal who looked like a celestial being, as if she did not exist in the mortal world, had a body that cracked and shattered like porcelain and disappeared between heaven and earth.

"What's going on? It's fine that it can restrain the demon swordsmanship of the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect, but how come it can now restrain the righteousness of Hao Ran? Does the Underworld God Cave really have such a unique skill?"

"Ninth level of Golden Core, and he has defeated two Yuanyings from the Northern Territory in a row. He is truly amazing. I have never seen such a person in the Northern Territory Yuanshen inheritance!"

Because of the Styx Contract, Mr. Wei gritted his teeth as he watched his beloved sect disciple die tragically. When Ming Yuchen saw the expression of his senior beside him, he knew that he had to stand up himself at this time.

This direct descendant of the Underworld God's Cave Mansion is indeed powerful. The Taoism he practices seems to be able to restrain all the Taoist skills in the world. There is no point in fighting any further.

Just when Ming Yuchen was about to fly out and force the already powerful Mingkong Taoist to retreat.

A young and handsome Taoist flew out from the crowd and came in front of Taoist Mingkong. This scene made Ming Yuchen stop.

"Are you willing to fight for a third time? Let me also say one more thing. I am the Taoist Tiexiao of Kunzi Island. As long as you can defeat me, you can take over Kunzi Island without any soldiers."

The person who spoke was naturally Lu Cheng.

With his understanding and talent, and after watching two sword fights of high standards at close range, Lu Cheng had already vaguely seen the mystery of Mingkong Taoist's Taoism.

Doing something without any certainty is reckless.

But if you are 70% sure, why not take this opportunity to see the true Dharma of Mingshen Cave?
"Tie Xiao, come back, this man's Taoism is profound and mysterious, and no one can defeat him!"

At this time, Wei Shuyi spoke again from behind, but he had persuaded Han Sujin before because he wanted to cherish the sect's true teachings, but now he was persuading Lu Cheng, probably because he felt sorry for the preciousness of Kun Island.

Judging from the level of Taoism displayed by Taoist Mingkong at this moment, it seems not an exaggeration to say that he is no match for a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage.

In this battle, Taoist Mingkong, who had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, won two consecutive victories, captured three islands, and frightened all the cultivators from all over the world. In any case, this was already a demonstration of the might of Yangming Divine Cave.

Therefore, in fact, Taoist Mingkong had already planned to stop, and after showing his power, he returned to the group of cultivators in Tiannan.

In this way, no matter what the outcome of the South China Sea Sword Fight between the North and South regions is, he, Taoist Mingkong, has won. Even if the results of capturing the island are not very ideal, his master will not blame him too much.

Therefore, when facing Lu Cheng at this moment, Taoist Mingkong was a little hesitant. Although he had enough confidence in the Taixu Jie Xuanzhen Heart Sutra that he practiced, this Taoist Tiexiao was one major realm higher than him. If he dared to take action now, he must have something to rely on.

Although Kunzi Island is good, it would be difficult to explain if I lose this battle and go back.

Seeing that Taoist Mingkong was hesitant and seemed to be planning to retreat, Lu Cheng gave him a little hope. Otherwise, if this person retreated, where would he find the four spiritual islands?

I had already agreed with Mr. Wei that if I captured a spiritual island, I would inherit a sixth-level basic martial arts technique. I had originally planned to fight two battles. Now Luo Ji'an has two, Han Sujin has one, and Taoist Mingkong also has a Lingxi Island. As long as I can beat him in a sword fight, it will be equivalent to defeating four people in a row.

Therefore, Lu Cheng sent a message to Taoist Mingkong:

"Fellow Daoist, we have fought twice in a row. I will not take advantage of you. You can tell the nature of my magic power and my actual cultivation level at a glance."

After saying that, Lu Cheng swung his hand and a stream of magic power condensed into a thin and soft sword thread, which he shot towards Taoist Mingkong. The Taoist opposite raised his hand to take it, and after sensing it, he suddenly looked up.

"…Sir, which ancestor's disciple are you?"

Sensing that trace of magic power in Lu Cheng, Taoist Mingkong didn't know that the Taoist in front of him only had the magic power level of the middle stage of the Golden Core, which was one small realm weaker than himself.

Lu Cheng's action of using his magic power to condense the sword thread could not be concealed from the other people present, because the cultivators present were all in the Nascent Soul stage after all.

Although they could not sense the two people's concealed and careful telepathic communication, they still had some vague guesses in their hearts, especially Wei Shuyi and Ming Yuchen. They looked at each other and once again thought of the guess they had made many years ago.

"Fellow Daoist, you can take two hours to recuperate first. As for the rest, I have nothing to tell you. Whether to fight or not is up to you."

"...Okay, in two hours, I will have a fair fight with you, fellow Taoist."

During this conversation, Lu Cheng and Taoist Mingkong did not communicate with each other through their spiritual consciousness, so Taoist Mingkong took out the pill, swallowed it, and then stood there to regulate his internal breath and restore his spiritual consciousness and magic power.

In this regard, the cultivators from the southern and northern regions had some vague guesses, but they could not put them into practice.

Everyone present was a cultivator, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

When Taoist Mingkong suddenly opened his eyes again, it was already dark outside with bright stars. Almost at the same time, Lu Cheng opened his eyes, and the two Taoists witnessed it from a distance.

In just a moment, Lu Cheng sensed a spiritual force, like an evil dragon, rising from the other party's body and rushing towards himself.

There was a gleam of fire in Lu Cheng's eyes, and his spiritual eyes had the power of fiery pupils and golden pupils.

In an instant, the power of consciousness was blocked by the golden eyes of fire. Mingkong Taoist was stunned, and Lu Cheng suddenly understood.

"Sure enough, how can there be a method in this world that can restrain all other methods! The method you practice seems to be a method of restraining other people, but in fact it is mainly used to restrain others. Once you restrain others, the method will break."

After watching two sword fights in a row, Lu Cheng had already seen through the strengths and weaknesses of this martial art and had also figured out several ways to crack it.

"No wonder you dare to attack. It turns out that you have cultivated this spiritual eye ability that can restrain external demons. Do you think that you can break my Mingshen Cave Taixu Tribulation Method in this way?"

Taoist Mingkong was not bluffing at this moment. Although he could use his pupil technique to witness and inject his own Taixu Tribulation Force into the opponent's body most quickly, most of the spiritual eye abilities in the world could not restrain the power of external demons like the Fire Pupils and Golden Eyes.

However, after the Lord of the Dark God Cave completed the ancient method of refining spirits: the Heart Sutra of the Great Void Jie Xuan Zhen's Enlightenment, he also made several deductions.

Even if the pupil technique is useless, Taoist Mingkong also has several other methods to inject the Taixu Tribulation Force into the opponent's body, but the effect will be relatively slow.

However, the Three Elements Demon Refining Sword Formation set up by Taoist Mingkong, with himself as the main force and two sixth-level puppets as the auxiliary, is sufficient to deal with most situations. It can hold out until the power of Taixu Tribulation arouses the seven emotions of the other cultivator and destroys his foundation of cultivation.

The power of Taixu Tribulation, because the opponent's seven emotions restrain his magic power, and because of the opponent's magic power, the disorder affects his seven emotions, and this cycle repeats over and over again, until the opponent's magic power and mind are completely broken, and all methods are broken.

The power of Taixu Tribulation seems to control merits, but in fact it controls people. After all, everything changes, but people's hearts remain the same.

Luo Ji'an of the Tian Yao Sword Sect is deeply in love with Han Sujin. In a short period of time, he can achieve the state of mind of a sword cultivator who is free from all emotions and can easily control life and death. However, those seven emotions are still there. Once he is caught off guard and is hit by the Taixu Tribulation Force, the seven emotions in his body will burst out. Although he looks calm on the outside, his sword heart is actually destroyed and his sword path is in chaos.
