Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 560 The Wise Blade Master (Seeking Subscriptions)

Shen Xuan suddenly stood up, transformed into a streak of light, and flew directly to the port.

Holding the array token, he directly exited the Ten Thousand Waters Converging Formation and flew straight to the purple-robed Taoist, thirty feet away, where they faced off in mid-air.

"Xuanbing greets Fellow Daoist Huidao."

Despite this, Shen Xuan did not bow.

My divine sense remained locked onto Master Huidao.

"Shen Xuan, you relied on your meager cultivation to kill my great-grandson and imprison my personal disciple. Now that you see me, why don't you surrender!"

Master Huidao's eyes were filled with resentment as he shouted in a deep voice.

Clearly, he hated Shen Xuan intensely.

Zhao Mingde was his only great-grandson who achieved the feigned elixir.

He placed high hopes on it, hoping it would uphold the family's reputation.

Shen Xuan smiled dismissively.

“Zhao Mingde murdered my niece, seriously injured my friend, and launched a psionic cannon to ambush me. His crimes are heinous. I didn’t kill anyone, but you can hold me accountable.”

"Is your Tyrant Blade Sect's formation an attempt to outnumber me and overwhelm me, to swarm me and show me your unreasonable ways?"

Master Huidao roared, "You mere early-stage Golden Core cultivator, how dare you spout such nonsense before me! With a flick of my finger, I can reduce you to ashes."

The body of the Wise Blade Master emitted a powerful golden divine light, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he stared intently at Shen Xuan, seemingly trying to see through his true nature.

Shen Xuan calmly replied, "You're hundreds of years old, stop bragging!"

"If you want war, I will fight. If you want a one-on-one fight, I will fight you one-on-one! If you want a group fight, then let's have a group fight."

The voice just fell.

A glimmer of light appeared in the sky.

Then, more and more appeared.

More than a hundred spaceships flew one after another to the skies above Starshine Island.

It was the reinforcements sent by the Qingyun Sect.

They had long been hiding near Starshine Island.

Standing atop the central ship was none other than the Spirit Sword Master.

On the left and right of the two third-tier spaceships stood Lingxiao Zhenren and Hanyu Zhenren respectively.

The Qingyun Sect's fleet has slightly fewer Tier 3 spaceships, with only seven.

However, with the aid of the island-protecting formation, they were evenly matched with the opposing Tyrant Blade Sect fleet.

Shen Xuan is a newly promoted Ice-type Golden Core cultivator in the Qingyun Sect, and also a third-tier alchemist.

The Qingyun Sect certainly couldn't sit idly by.

"Hui Dao, instead of going back to heal your injuries, you come here to bully my junior brother. Did you even ask me beforehand?"

Master Lingjian, along with Master Lingxiao and Master Hanyu, rushed to the front of the formation.

"Master Hanyu, Senior Brother Lingjian, Senior Brother Lingxiao."

Shen Xuan bowed first.

Across from him, Master Huidao's face showed a hint of fear: "Spirit Sword, don't be arrogant! Ten years from now, we'll fight to the death again!"

The voice just fell.

Ten streaks of light flew from the Tyrant Blade Sect's fleet and landed beside Master Hui Dao.

Three Golden Elixir Pills, seven True Elixir Pills.

Its formation was quite luxurious.

They constituted nearly half of the main force of the Overlord Blade Sect's expedition to the Song Kingdom.

"Fellow Daoist Lingjian, why be so aggressive? If you want to fight, Dingxian will fight you!"

One of the Golden Core cultivators, dressed in purple robes and with white hair, stepped forward and stood before the Wise Blade cultivator.

Shen Xuan chuckled softly.

"Hui Dao, why involve the sect in our personal feud?"

He looked around.

"With so many fellow Daoists present, let's have a fight!"

“You have won. I will return Master Mingyi to you. As for my life, I will pay for Zhao Mingde’s life.”

Shen Xuan remained calm and composed, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

"If you lose, I won't take your life. Get out of here and go back to Yan. You are never to set foot in Song again!"

Shen Xuan's words were well said.

It was made clear that it was a personal grudge and had nothing to do with the sect.

This left Master Huidao with no excuse to make a fuss.

It's impossible for someone at the late stage of the Golden Core realm to need the sect's help for a personal grudge between someone at the early stage of the Golden Core realm.

Shen Xuan won, but spared his life and allowed him to return to Yan, forbidding him from setting foot in Song.

He seemed magnanimous, but there was another reason behind it.

In battles between Golden Core cultivators, it is easy to determine a winner, but extremely difficult to take the other's life.

Unless the magical artifact or supernatural power used is exceptionally powerful.

Given Shen Xuan's current cultivation level, it would be difficult for him to kill Master Hui Dao and take his life.

Moreover, the True Persons of the Overlord Blade Sect will not stand idly by and will definitely lend a helping hand.

Of course, if given the chance to kill Master Huidao, Shen Xuan would definitely do so without hesitation.

In battles between cultivators, life and death hang by a thread; there is no room for holding back.

"What arrogance! Originally, I spared your life out of respect for the Qingyun Sect. Shen Xuan, since you're courting death, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Master Huidao snorted coldly and looked at Master Lingjian.

"Lingjian, your junior brother challenged me in public. What do you have to say about that?"

Master Lingjian shook his head slightly.

"Hui Dao, you're hundreds of years old, you've wasted your life!"

"Junior Brother Xuanbing said it long ago. If you want to fight, then let's fight. Let's decide the victor and the vanquished, and let's decide life and death!"

Master Huidao was furious.

Since he condensed his golden core, no one has ever despised him like this.

"Senior Brother Dingxian, you all step back."

The two True Immortals exchanged a glance and each retreated a thousand feet.

Master Lingjian cautioned, "Junior Brother Xuanbing, be careful! His injuries haven't healed yet; the longer the fight lasts, the better."

Shen Xuan nodded.

Master Lingxiao patted him on the shoulder: "If you can't beat them, just escape into the sea and save your life."

He knew that Shen Xuan's water magic had reached perfection.

Even if they are no match for the enemy, they can escape into the deep sea above the East China Sea.

Finally, there is Master Hanyu.

She said softly, "Shen Xuan, you did nothing wrong."

Clearly, Master Hanyu knew the cause and effect.

"Live well."

Shen Xuan smiled: "Master, don't worry. He doesn't have that ability!"

Soon, Shen Xuan was facing off against Master Hui Dao.

Between the sea and the sky, two figures faced each other from afar, their auras clashing and stirring up the winds and clouds in all directions.

Master Huidao, with a grim expression, struck first.

A gleaming golden spirit sword appeared before him.

The spiritual power of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator surged within, causing the spirit blade to erupt with dazzling golden blade energy, sharp and fierce, soaring into the sky and instantly growing to over ten zhang in length. Dao patterns flowed across the blade, radiating a powerful aura capable of cleaving mountains and seas.

"Good knife!"

Shen Xuan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Such a spirit blade should be a high-grade third rank.

"You can die in peace now that you've met my Spirit-Slaying Blade!"

Master Huidao continuously performed hand seals and incantations, making the Spirit-Slaying Blade increasingly imposing.

"Spirit-Slaying Blade, annihilate both soul and spirit!"

Master Huidao clasped his hands together, his gesture resembling a knife, and slashed at Shen Xuan from mid-air.

This moment.

The golden blade did not strike Shen Xuan's physical body directly, but suddenly became illusory, transforming into an invisible and formless blade aura that struck Shen Xuan's soul.

The Spirit-Slaying Blade technique unleashed by Master Huidao instantly enveloped the surrounding area within a hundred feet, firmly locking onto Shen Xuan.

This strike was extremely powerful, severing space and spiritual energy in one blow, directly attacking Shen Xuan's soul.

Those watching the battle felt a slight stinging sensation in their souls, as their probing divine senses were easily shattered by the Spirit-Slaying Blade.

The Spirit-Slaying Blade technique is specifically designed to sever a cultivator's soul and consciousness, destroying their very essence.

Shen Xuan's expression changed slightly.

Although he had seen the video recording of the battle between Master Huidao and Master Lingjian.

But seeing is one thing.

Personal experience is another matter.

Only then did he truly understand the terrifying power of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator.

With a casual strike, one can kill an ordinary True Core cultivator.

On Starshine Island, countless cultivators gazed up at the sky.

Some people with low cultivation levels screamed in agony upon seeing the light of the Spirit-Slaying Blade.

"All Qi Refining cultivators, enter the room and are not allowed to come out. Otherwise, it will be treated as treason and you will be executed without exception!"

Zhuang Xueqin's voice resounded throughout Xinghui Island.

"City guards, remain in place, maintain order, and are not allowed to spy on the real battle."

Above Starshine Island.

Master Hanyu looked worried.

"Senior Brother Lingjian, that old bastard Huidao's Spirit-Slaying Blade is quite powerful. Shen Xuan, he..."

Lingjian Zhenren chuckled softly.

"Junior Sister Hanyu, there's no need to worry."

"Although the golden light of the Wisdom Blade is dazzling, it is all show and no substance. The blade's energy covers the sky and the earth, but it is all show and no substance."

"This Spirit-Slaying Blade looks terrifying, but it only has half the power it had before. His injuries haven't fully healed, so he doesn't dare to use it at full strength."

Master Lingjian spoke with certainty, tinged with a hint of disdain: "Junior Brother Xuanbing will surely be able to break it."

really.

On the battlefield, Shen Xuan remained calm and composed. He made a hand seal and used the [Yin Yang Walking] technique, causing his figure to suddenly disappear.

"Space magic!"

Shen Xuan's actions even startled Lingxiao Zhenren.

When did Junior Brother Xuanbing comprehend spatial supernatural powers?

Lingjian Zhenren glanced at Hanyu Zhenren and nodded slightly.

Clearly, this was something Shen Xuan had achieved through his own cultivation.

It has nothing to do with the ice techniques taught by Master Hanyu.

"Don't run!"

Master Huidao roared angrily.

The Spirit-Slaying Blade slashed fiercely towards the sea.

The seawater parted, and a figure appeared a hundred feet below the seabed—it was Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan raised his eyes and coldly looked at the Master Hui Dao on the sea.

No wonder he's in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

Even with its injuries not fully healed, it can only unleash half its power.

None of them are things that an ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivator could withstand.

Even Shen Xuan.

Comparable to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

It also requires the power of seawater to directly counter its Spirit-Slaying Blade Divine Power.

"boom!"

The golden blade tore through the seawater, severing and annihilating all living things within it, its power terrifying beyond measure.

"Roar!"

An ancient, desolate dragon's roar suddenly resounded from the depths of the sea, causing the entire surface to boil.

Shen Xuan unleashed the Purple Gold True Water Seal.

In an instant, seawater from the nearby waters rushed into the treasure seal.

【Mystic Ice Dragon Shadow】!
A Xuanbing Divine Dragon, over ten zhang long and formed from pure Xuanbing spiritual energy, roared out from the Purple-Gold True Water Seal.

Its scales and armor were clearly defined, its horns and claws were sharp, and its entire body was transparent. It exuded a terrifying chill that could freeze everything, and it was incredibly lifelike.

At this moment, with the blessing of the vast sea's spiritual power, the Xuanbing Divine Dragon came to life, almost as if it were real.

The Xuanbing Divine Dragon raised its head to the sky and roared at the overwhelming golden blade energy that was slashing down from the sky.

【Ten Thousand Dragons Sword Tide】!
Within the dragon's mouth, over ten thousand extremely cold ice swords converged into a surging tide of icy swords, their sword cries deafening, as they met the aura of the Spirit-Slaying Blade.

The golden blade energy that rained down from the sky collided with the icy sword tide, creating a series of explosions.

The sharp and fierce intent of the Spirit-Slaying Blade Aura was constantly struck and melted by the endless tide of icy swords, eventually collapsing and dissipating.

"The ice magic technique of Fusion Swordsmanship?"

A look of surprise appeared on Master Huidao's face.

Let's look at Shen Xuan underwater.

A sudden, unusual change occurred.

A huge phantom of a divine dragon appeared behind them.

He himself transformed into a Xuanbing dragon over twenty feet long, his two claws gripping a strange gold and cold iron rod, exuding a violent and destructive aura, chillingly cold.

At this moment, Shen Xuan didn't look like a cultivator at all; he was clearly a demon beast!
A powerful surge of demonic energy emanated from his body.

This scene deeply shocked Master Huidao.

"A body refiner at the Dharma Aspect Realm? And at the peak of the Dharma Aspect Realm! No wonder he has such confidence to challenge me to a duel!"

It's not just him.

The True Immortals of the Overlord Blade Sect behind them were all dumbfounded.

They had only heard that Shen Xuan was a Golden Core cultivator specializing in ice magic, known as the Mysterious Ice True Man, and was skilled in ice magic.

I've never heard of Shen Xuan being a body refiner at the peak of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Throughout the entire Yan Kingdom, there are very few cultivators who have cultivated body-refining techniques to such a level.

Moreover, the Dharma form it condenses is a true spirit like the Xuanbing Divine Dragon.

In this East China Sea, it has all the advantages of timing and location.

"Senior Brother Huidao is in trouble now!"

A True Person from the Overlord Blade Sect sighed.
