Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 179 Yun Yun's Combat Skills: The Poet Immortal's Sword Prologue

Within the silent valley, as a gentle breeze swept by, Yun Yun's slender hands formed a strange hand seal in front of her: "Wind Push!"

As the crisp sound faded, a swirling, turbulent blue whirlwind emerged before him and then roared out.

Xiao Yan's black hair danced wildly in the wind as he stood with difficulty, his hand tightening slightly on the Demon-Slaying Staff.

After a period of understanding Yun Yun's aptitude and characteristics, he comprehended a set of sword techniques that suited his aptitude, relying on his own understanding of swordsmanship and the sword techniques he had collected and read from Yao Lao.

The initial stage of the Ancient Yue Sword Technique focuses on the fundamentals of swordsmanship, strengthening Yun Yun's mastery of the sword.

The moves are: Remnant Snow Seals the Bridge, Sunset Glows Over Ancient Peaks, and Emerald Pool Reflects the Moon. All of them are at the high-level of the Profound Rank. As the user's understanding of the sword moves deepens, they can unleash power up to the Earth Rank.

In the intermediate stage of the Poet Immortal Sword Sequence, the sword technique's power is greatly enhanced, guiding Yun Yun to deepen her understanding of the sword.

Techniques: Flying Sword Slashes Across Floating Clouds, Sweeping Across the Four Seas, Plumbing Through Clouds and Lying Among Pine and Snow, White Bones Across a Thousand Frosts. The lowest rank is at the Earth Rank level, and each move is exceptionally powerful.

The final stage is to enable Yunyun to reach a state of swordsmanship without moves, similar to the Void Sword Realm, where moves change at will, and the most advantageous sword moves are used in response to the opponent.

Yun Yun's aptitude is definitely considered good in the Jia Ma Empire, but compared to some top geniuses, she is far inferior.

Wanting his beloved to accompany him on his journey, Xiao Yan has already begun some training. Moreover, Yun Yun, who is already a Dou Huang powerhouse, can also become a fighting force against the Soul Hall once she grows stronger.

A powerful wind pressure was generated, and Yun Yun made a sword gesture, lightly touching the ground with her toes, like a noble butterfly.

Liu Xu, a mid-level Xuan-rank cultivator, unleashed her movement technique. At the same time, the azure wings of battle qi on her back fluttered slightly. The combination of the two transformed her into a streak of black light, instantly appearing more than ten meters away.

It must be said that under Xiao Yan's tutelage, Yun Yun was able to feel a tremendous change in her strength and combat power.

This extreme speed even surprised her, the one who performed it.

Yun Yun smiled confidently, and with a wave of her strange longsword, propelled by the surrounding wind pressure, it transformed into countless deep blue wind blades that shot out in a devastating barrage: "Remnant Snow Seals the Bridge!"

In an instant, the powerful wind-attribute driving sword techniques caused the surrounding temperature to drop, and snowflakes began to condense on the ground.

Seeing Yun Yun's combat skills, Xiao Yan was also surprised; his teacher was always very busy.

Because of the need to produce the Flame Spirit Holy Armor and its matching weapons, Yun Yun's guidance after teaching her combat skills was basically sporadic and didn't last very long.

I never expected that even so, Yun Yun could combine the fighting techniques he taught her with her own knowledge to this extent!

It seems that Yun Yun has good comprehension skills, but in the resource-scarce Gama Empire, there is no place for her to use them.

Seeing the wind blades blocking his front, Xiao Yan stomped his foot on the ground, like a tiger descending a mountain. His Demon-Slaying Staff moved in a variety of ways, circling, pointing, flicking, and deflecting, instantly transforming into a sky full of staff shadows.

Amidst a series of clanging sounds, the sword energy dissipated, and the two weapons collided violently, producing a piercing metallic scraping sound.

A terrifying residual force rippled outwards, like an invisible wave of energy churning across the surrounding area. The amethyst crystals in the valley were shaken and tilted to one side by this residual force.

Yun Yun felt an immense force, as powerful as splitting mountains and shattering monuments, come crashing down upon her. The longsword she held horizontally in front of her instantly bent into an astonishing arc.

This put immense pressure on her, who was known for her agility, and her brows furrowed instantly.

With a loud bang, immense force was unleashed, and the ground beneath Yun Yun's feet instantly shattered. Moreover, the cracks spread outwards, seemingly without end.

Yun Yun was not surprised that Xiao Yan was able to neutralize the sword energy resulting from the combined effects of her multiple fighting techniques at full power; however, she was truly astonished by the staff weapon in his hand.

What kind of weapon is this?

It looks no different from an ordinary stick weapon, but in Xiao Yan's hands it feels like a pillar supporting the sky, incredibly heavy.

The jade hand that was pressing on the sword suddenly pushed forward, and the bent longsword snapped back to its normal position. With a hum, the huge rebound force shook the old demon-subduing staff apart.

Using the momentum, Yun Yun retreated rapidly like a nimble butterfly, then quickly formed a sword incantation in her hand, and a surge of azure wind-attribute battle qi poured into the longsword.

As a large amount of battle qi was poured in, the longsword began to emit a rich blue light, and the blade seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious power.

Holding a long sword, Yun Yun's figure began to blur in place at this moment.

"Moon Reflected in the Green Pool!" Yun Yun shouted, then transformed into a streak of azure sword light that shot through the air, as bright and cold as moonlight.

The sword's edge sliced ​​through the air, producing a sharp whistling sound. The very space trembled at that moment, showing signs of breaking apart.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath. Yun Yun not only used high-level fighting techniques with ease, but she had also unleashed power comparable to earth-level fighting techniques.

In his semi-crippled state, he had to be completely focused. Even a slight deviation in the coordination of his soul power, battle qi, and body couldn't stop Yun Yun, who had raised her strength to the Seven-Star Dou Huang level after more than two months.

Although it was my first time using a stick-type weapon, I wasn't completely without experience.

Besides the prescriptions and alchemy experience that countless alchemists dream of, Yao Lao's collection also includes many powerful individuals who offered him their cultivation techniques and fighting skills in exchange for his alchemy skills.

Among the many types of fighting techniques, there are still a few volumes of staff-based fighting techniques, which is enough to inspire Xiao Yan.

Past experience and the effort spent designing weapons—all these accumulated over time—instantly triggered Xiao Yan's enlightenment after he personally took action.

Based on your painstaking efforts in weapon design, staff fighting techniques, and experience in execution, you had an epiphany; you mastered the Nine Marks Staff Technique.

[Nine Marks Staff Technique: The entire set of fighting techniques can reach the high-level Earth Rank. When combined with the Fire-Tipped Spear, it can also be used as a spear technique. However, due to the limited execution time of the Fire-Tipped Spear, it is named a staff technique.]

[Movements: Mountain and Sea Subdue, Ten Categories Exterminated, Spirit Stabilizes Wind Demon, Manifests Sainthood and Destroys Evil, Three Battles of the Sand River, Sweep Away All Demons, Return to the Root of the Way, Night Connects to Heaven and Water.]

[Note: As this is a special fighting technique performed with a weapon, the power exerted with or without a spearhead is vastly different.]
