Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 330 The Complete Ice Soul True Qi

Wuying Hou's face was full of surprise as he asked, "When exactly did you become a Grandmaster?"

Sun Yanwan replied, "It was the moment I made the move."

Sun Yanwan's internal and external martial arts have both reached the peak of the Innate Realm. However, advancing to the Subtle Realm of Grandmaster requires patient training and cannot be achieved overnight.

He had experienced countless battles in recent days. Just now, facing the Wunian Monk's Heavenly Dragon Temple Demon Subduing Technique, he was forced to unleash his full potential and finally broke through to the Grandmaster realm.

If he hadn't advanced to the Grandmaster realm, he could have withstood that move, but he would have suffered a minor loss, lacking that smooth and composed demeanor.

Yang Diao'er wasn't surprised; she just smiled slightly. Duanmu Xianling and Lu Chaoxiu, however, were quite astonished. How old was Sun Yanwan? She had already advanced to the Grandmaster level? Then the two thought of Zhang Qingxi and suddenly felt that, well, this matter... wasn't so surprising after all.

Today, everyone in the world knows that Zhang Yuanqiao is the best teacher in the world.

Grandmaster Zhang Yuanqiao had only two disciples.

Both of his apprentices became successful.

Sun Yanwan's promotion to Grandmaster simply confirms this point.

Even though Master Feng taught seven disciples, including one Grandmaster and six Grandmasters, none of the Seven Friends of Songyang advanced to the Grandmaster level at such a young age.

If one advances to the Innate Realm before the age of twenty, one can be ranked among the prodigies.

There are only a dozen or so people on the list of prodigies.

However, both Zhang Qingxi and Sun Yanwan were promoted to Grandmaster before the age of twenty, and the two brothers successively ascended to the throne of the youngest Grandmaster in the world.

The youngest grandmasters in the world seem to belong to the Songyang Sect; one after another, no other sect gets a turn.

Wuyinghou sighed and suddenly wondered if he was "getting old".
Although he has an outstanding appearance and looks very young, he is actually quite old, and his blood and energy are not enough to support him. He is now making another breakthrough.

Sun Yanwan did not personally take action. When they came out to ambush the master of Jiangxue Sword Pavilion, they had already sent a team of Tianma Gang members nearby. At this moment, when Sun Yanwan called out, Tianma Gang members naturally came over to examine the body of the master of Jiangxue Sword Pavilion, tidy up his appearance, retrieve his long sword, and wrap him up before placing him in a fine coffin.

Sun Yanwan calmly instructed, "Send the man back to Jiangxue Sword Sect and tell him that he accidentally injured the Miaohua Monk of Tianlong Temple and that he came forward to avenge the death of the disciple of the Wunian Monk Shangxin."

Well, Sun Yanwan didn't think that these people needed to appear in the matter of the death of the master of Jiangxue Sword Pavilion.

He also has a record of killing a Grandmaster.

Wuyinghou clapped his hands and laughed, saying, "Such a handling is truly ingenious. Miss Duanmu and Miss Lu should not reveal the truth."

Both women said in unison, "We dare not."

Back at the Demon-Slaying Manor, Duanmu Xianling couldn't help but pull Yang Diao'er aside and whisper, "I have a favor to ask of you."

The two dared not approach each other, for their Ice Soul True Qi attracted each other. Now, with Duanmu Xianling pulling out Yang Diao'er, their inner Qi indeed stirred. Sun Yanwan was about to separate them when she was surprised, for Duanmu Xianling had released her meridians, allowing her Ice Soul True Qi to surge forth and flow into Yang Diao'er's body. This last wisp of Ice Soul True Qi entered Yang Diao'er's body, and Duanmu Xianling immediately slumped, visibly withered, yet she smiled and said, "I am ultimately not destined for this divine skill; Miss Diao'er is the most suitable for it."

Yang Diao'er was also surprised that Duanmu Xianling would make such a decision. She was so astonished that she said softly after a long while, "Yan Wan and I are not that kind of people, so why should Miss Duanmu do this?"

Sun Yanwan sighed, took something out of her sleeve, handed it to Duanmu Xianling, and said, "Fairy Duanmu, swallow this quickly, it will help you recover some of your true energy."

Duanmu Xianling did not refuse, nor did she glance at what Sun Yanwan handed her; she simply opened her mouth and swallowed it.

The first few people whose Ice Soul True Qi was stolen almost all died on the spot, their bodies withered and emaciated. Duanmu Xianling thought that she would inevitably suffer the same fate.

She made this decision not on a whim, but because she had recently realized that no matter how hard she cultivated the Ice Silkworm Transformation, she could not digest this wisp of Ice Soul True Qi. Instead, she was constantly being controlled by this wisp of true qi, and the circulation of her true qi was always controlled by the Ice Soul True Qi.

Duanmu Xianling was also not yet twenty years old when she advanced to the Innate Realm and entered the ranks of the Prodigies. Her understanding of martial arts far surpassed that of ordinary people. She had a vague feeling that she might not live much longer. Especially after seeing the bloodstains and bruises on the body of the Master of Jiangxue Sword Sect, she was even more alarmed because she had already discovered that her body was also undergoing ominous changes.

She just didn't dare let anyone know, not even her best friend Lu Chaoxiu.

Just now, Duanmu Xianling suddenly thought, why should she struggle so hard? Wouldn't it be better to give the last wisp of Ice Soul True Qi to Yang Diao'er and end it all?
That's why I took this action.

Duanmu Xianling didn't believe that Sun Yanwan could have any miraculous medicine, but since Sun Yanwan had given it to her, she took it to avoid making Sun Yanwan feel guilty.

Little Fairy Duanmu almost choked to death on this thing...

She rolled her eyes seven or eight times before swallowing the thing, exclaiming in horror, "Did I forget to remove the wax pellet?"

Sun Yanwan shook her head and said, "That thing is just that hard."

Yang Diao'er chuckled and said, "It is indeed a bit difficult to swallow."

Wuyinghou sighed and said, "Although I have no use for that thing, I would definitely have tried to snatch it at any other time. Duanmu girl is lucky."

Duanmu Xianling had also felt her life force gradually draining away, but after that thing swallowed her, another vast power forcibly locked in her essence and nourished and strengthened it.

After this substance entered her stomach, Duanmu Xianling's own true energy was completely dissipated by the Ice Soul True Energy, leaving her meridians empty. Moreover, having practiced martial arts for many years, her body was in perfect condition. Instantly, it was occupied by a Buddhist true energy, and chanting filled her mind. A vast consciousness filled her mind, and a golden Buddha figure, sixteen feet tall and wearing a battle robe, appeared with a bang, demonstrating a supreme Buddhist divine skill.

Lu Chaoxiu then realized what was happening, hugged her friend, and exclaimed, "Duanmu, have you... been experiencing changes in your body? But you kept it from me? Otherwise, why would you be like this?"

"Please, Scholar Sun! Please, Senior Shadowless Marquis! Please, Miss Diao'er, save Duanmu!"

Lu Chaoxiu and Duanmu Xianling were friends for many years, and their friendship was exceptionally deep. She had long suspected that Duanmu Xianling seemed to be hiding something, but she never expected that her friend would act so impulsively. She had seen those who had been given too much Ice Soul True Qi, and they immediately withered up as if they had been buried underground for one or two hundred years. She was afraid that her friend would be the same.

Lu Chaoxiu held Duanmu Xianling tightly, even channeling her own inner energy into her, hoping to save Duanmu Xianling. With tears in her eyes, she pleaded with Sun Yanwan and the others to help.
