Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 520 Turbulent Currents

Meanwhile, the destructive power of the Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Sky Undying True Monarch, cultivated by Xu Yunfan, attempted to find the weakness in his sword intent and launch a targeted attack.

He naturally didn't know where the sword light was weak, but the Eight Views Clouds were layered and covered all directions, so given enough time, he would find it.

Seeing that his sword strike had not completely pierced through the Eight Views Cloud Qi, Xu Yunfan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The surprise in his eyes was clearly visible.

I really didn't expect that this weapon-refining technique would be so profound in terms of offensive capabilities.

The profound mystery of the Eight Scenery Primordial Qi, condensed from the true skill of "The Eight Scenery Refining Heaven and Creating Clouds of Xuandu," far exceeded his previous expectations.

This true skill truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top true techniques of the Xuandu lineage of the Yuanshi Sect.

The Eight Views of Primordial Energy is not a homogeneous pure energy; its core essence lies in the vast power contained within the eight fundamental celestial and terrestrial elements: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui.

Each wisp of cloud seemed to contain its own little universe.

It may be the earth's core, bearing the virtues of all things; or the gentle, nourishing water, which nurtures and generates spiritual energy; or the fierce, incomparable thunder of the heavens, which destroys evil spirits; or the pure yang fire, which warms all things and nourishes their spiritual essence; and it also possesses the supreme power to differentiate impurities and stabilize space.

The Wancheng Sword Sect's sword philosophy of "one sword breaks all laws" emphasizes reducing countless sword intents to a single, simple, pure, and sharp point, using unparalleled purity to cut through all obstacles and reach the origin of the Great Dao.

This dazzling sword light is the perfect embodiment of this principle; its intent to destroy everything is enough to tear apart most conventional defenses.

However, at this moment, facing this peerless sword aura that severs cause and effect and destroys all laws, Xu Yunfan's Eight Scenery Yuan Qi showed a completely different way of dealing with it.

The eight scenic cloud formations on the proficiency panel, which are almost perfect, have already become a part of Xu Yunfan's mind.

Even if the creator of the law came, he wouldn't dare say he could use it better than Xu Yunfan.

The Eight Views of Clouds do not confront each other head-on with extreme rigidity, but rather evolve into endless changes with their all-encompassing "extreme complexity" attribute.

Guided by his divine will, his magical power surged, and he unleashed his hand seals.

The primordial energy of the eight scenic spots was transformed into a giant, overwhelming cloud palm.

As soon as this giant hand took shape, the space seemed to be solidified and stagnant under its influence. This was the wonderful use of the fusion of the Kan and Gen elements, creating an invisible "quagmire".

At the same time, the innate pure and turbid energy that was drawn in circulated in his palm, transforming into the innate turbid evil source, forming the foul yin power in the Kun phase. Like a maggot clinging to a bone, it constantly eroded and corrupted the pure and sharp sword intent, causing its power to quietly dissipate.

Even more remarkably, Xu Yunfan simultaneously activated the power of the Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Sky Undying True Scripture, integrating the Po Jun and Killing Power contained within it into the true meaning of the Eight Scenery Primordial Qi Separation Phase and Zhen Phase.

Although this force did not directly collide with the strongest point of the sword aura, it was like a hundred-times-refined gold thread, constantly wandering, probing, and searching for the weak gaps in the intent flowing within the sword light within the layers of clouds, launching a targeted attack with the power of thunderous fury.

This method almost perfectly combines the sharp offensive power of the Nine Heavens of the Divine Firmament with the myriad transformations of the Eight Scenery Primordial Qi.

If it weren't for the attribute panel, Xu Yunfan really wouldn't have been able to do this.

But then he thought about it again and recalled his days of rigorous seclusion and ascetic training, which he realized was also the result of his hard work.

That's just how I am by nature.

In an instant, the pure sword intent that should have been unstoppable and shattered everything was trapped in this "quagmire of change" woven from multiple fundamental attributes of heaven and earth.

Sword energy continuously tore through layers of clouds, but the Eight Views' vital energy was inexhaustible, its attributes shifting and changing.

Space stagnates with each layer it forms, turbidity and pollution seep in again with each wisp, and thunderous killing intent, once blocked, seeks a new opening. Under his exquisite control, the powers of the eight zodiac signs evolve and combine, forming an extremely complex and infinitely resilient net.

This extreme "complexity" and "change" became the supreme method to restrain the Wancheng Sword Sect's extremely concentrated "simplicity" and "sharpness".

This led Xu Yunfan to believe that the Eight Scenic Clouds Technique was specifically created to counter the swordsmanship of the Wancheng Sword Sect.

However, mastering the Eight Views of Clouds is extremely difficult, and controlling the eight types of clouds with fine precision is almost impossible for most people.

As one thing diminishes while the other gains, the brilliant sword light, though still incomparably sharp, is as if it has sunk into an endless swamp, being worn down layer by layer, its speed decreasing sharply, and its light dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The sword light continued to burst forth, breaking through layers of clouds, but its speed was clearly slowed, and its brilliance began to dim.

It's unclear which Grandmaster of the Wancheng Sword Sect had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, but with a single sword strike, Xu Yunfan almost had to unleash all his hidden strength to stall for time.

If another sword strikes...

Xu Yunfan figured he probably had to leave.

Just as Xu Yunfan was using the Eight Views Cloud Hand technique to gradually wear down the dazzling sword light...

At the heart of the Eastern Wilderness battlefield, in that sky that was painted with magnificent colors by the boundless Buddhist light and the primordial immortal energy, yet permeated with an aura of destruction, a pure, flawless, lofty, and profound aura suddenly rose.

"Humph!"

A soft hum, imbued with Daoist authority, seemed to descend from the heavens, carrying an unparalleled will to rule over all and establish order in the universe.

It is indeed the Pure Source Wonderful Path that carries on the mandate of the Mysterious Vault True Lord.

Although he was on a distant battlefield, the sudden appearance of the Silent Buddha's Hand pointing towards Han Ya Pass, with its rich aura of Bodhi, had already alerted him.

Chu Chengnan's pursuit of gold to prove his Dao is of great use to him, so he naturally wouldn't let others disrupt the process, and a considerable portion of his mind was drawn into it.

Almost at the very moment that the withered Buddha hand seal of the Great Awakening Bodhisattva, containing the original power of the Nirvana Red Lotus Dao Fruit, was about to strike Chu Chengnan's soul foundation with invisible force across an unreachable space.

hum!
A pure and clear ethereal light, arriving first after arriving later.

This hazy, ethereal light was clear and pure, lacking any overwhelming or vast power, yet it was extremely refined and condensed, carrying an indescribable innate Daoist mystery.

This celestial light seemed to possess a will, silently spreading and spreading in the void. Wherever it passed, it seemed to forcibly cleanse and purify all filth, impurities, and foreign energy, returning them to their most fundamental state of "purity" and "stillness."

This is precisely the Daoist method of True Lord Qingyuan, the wondrous Daoist method of the pure Qi of Heaven and Earth.

The essence of that celestial light is the manifestation of the original "celestial pure energy" condensed from the power of the golden core.

The red lotus karmic fire and the intention of assimilation that ignited the Dao heart and extinguished the soul on the withered Buddha's hand seal, upon contact with this misty immortal light, were like snow meeting the blazing sun, or ink dripping into a pure spring.

Silently, the Bodhisattva's finger, which was powerful enough to severely injure or even annihilate a Great True Person at the Foundation Establishment stage, was instantly enveloped, neutralized, and eliminated by the seemingly gentle celestial aura.

There was no earth-shattering collision, no violent outburst of energy.

There is only one kind of purification and return to the origin belonging to the supreme Dao.

The invisible Buddhist power shackles that were directed at Chu Chengnan were "erased" and vanished into nothingness under the precise remote intervention of True Monarch Qingyuan, as if they had never existed.
