Chapter 105 The Trampling of Ying Xiaoxiao Shocks the Heavenly Palace!

"Sis, he's so arrogant!"

The girl in the red dress's eyes lit up as she focused her gaze on the white-clad figure that had suddenly appeared.

The young man, dressed in white, was handsome with striking features, including sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He stood with his hands behind his back on the edge of the jade platform, his aura calm and steady, as if the surging energy of the Dan River could not shake him in the slightest.

He stood there quietly, yet possessed an indescribable air of composure, as if he had everything in the world under his control.

Ying Xiaoxiao glanced helplessly at her younger sister and whispered, "Huanhuan, stop fooling around."

She stood up, straightened her dark robes, and bowed slightly to Lan He, her expression calm and dignified: "Tian Dian Ying Xiaoxiao greets this junior brother."

She paused, then looked up at Lan He, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes: "Since Junior Brother is interested, then please."

Lan He bowed respectfully and smiled, saying, "Lan He of the Dao Sect has long heard of the profound mysteries of the Heavenly Emperor Scripture of the Heavenly Palace. Please enlighten me, Senior Sister!"

"Daoist Sect Blue River————"

The girl in the red dress, Ying Huanhuan, blinked and suddenly tilted her head, asking, "Aren't you a disciple of the Fourth Palace?"

Lan He shook his head slightly: "Not yet."

Ying Huanhuan's eyes widened in disbelief: "You haven't chosen which hall to join yet? So you're a newly initiated disciple?"

As she spoke, she looked Lan He up and down again, her eyes full of curiosity and surprise.

Instead of properly familiarizing herself with the sect, a newly initiated disciple's first act was to challenge her older sister, the senior disciple of the Heavenly Palace.

This person is incredibly bold!

"Junior brother hasn't yet mastered the Four Great Scriptures of our Daoist School?"

Ying Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback, then her delicate brows furrowed slightly, her tone carrying a hint of admonition, "You are new here and have not yet cultivated the Heavenly Emperor Scripture. Such a challenge may be—"

Before she could finish speaking, Lan He waved his hand, a faint smile playing on his lips: "No need. Before I joined the sect, I had already mastered a Heavenly Martial Art, so I'll take this opportunity to ask Senior Sister for guidance."

As soon as he finished speaking, a mysterious fluctuation suddenly surged from his body. The fluctuation was initially peaceful, but in an instant it became profound and domineering—the Devouring Heaven Creation Technique was quietly activated!

An invisible force of devouring emanated from his body, seemingly possessing the power to engulf all things. The surrounding Nirvana aura seemed to be drawn towards him, trembling slightly, but he deliberately suppressed it, keeping it condensed and not dissipating.

Ying Xiaoxiao's gaze sharpened, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Although she had never seen this technique before, the profoundness of its aura and the smoothness of its operation clearly indicated that it was a genuine Heavenly Martial Arts, and she had comprehended it quite profoundly, far from being a novice.

"I see." She nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on her lips, a smile now tinged with seriousness. "In that case, please enlighten me, Junior Brother."

As soon as she finished speaking, her aura suddenly surged!

A sharp and powerful pressure swept out from her body, like a sleeping beast suddenly awakening. The surrounding Nirvana energy was impacted by this aura and surged in all directions. On the jade platform, golden light and sword energy intertwined, creating ripples.

Peak of the Eighth Nirvana Realm!

"Since I'm your senior, I'll let you make the first move."

Ying Xiaoxiao stood with her hands behind her back, her black clothes fluttering in the wind, her expression calm and dignified, as if she were simply instructing a junior.

Upon seeing this, Lan He's eyes flashed with barely concealed excitement.

The prodigies of those super dynasties in the Hundred Dynasties War were ultimately not enough for him. His journey had been too smooth, his victories too easy, and he had even grown somewhat disheartened.

The senior sister of the Heavenly Palace in front of him has a cultivation level that is a whole realm higher than his. She has also cultivated the Heavenly Martial Arts and has been immersed in the Dao Sect for many years. She is the real opponent worth fighting!

"Then I'll have to offend you."

Lan He took a deep breath, his Yuan Power surging like a tide. He activated the Devouring Heaven Creation Technique to its limit, and invisible vortexes of devouring power formed around him. He stomped his foot, transforming into a white streak of light, and sped towards Ying Xiaoxiao!

shhhhhh!

The sound of wind being cut suddenly tore through the air; before Lan He's figure arrived, the sword light had already reached him!

He pointed his right hand like a sword, and the Taiqing Dividing Light Sword was suddenly unleashed. Eight solid sword lights appeared out of thin air and slashed towards Ying Xiaoxiao from different directions.

Each sword light was sharp and incomparable, sealing off all her escape routes. Although this sword technique was a creation-level martial art, when he cultivated it to the perfect state of eight swords being used at the same time, its power was already comparable to a lower-level spiritual martial art!

"The Taiqing Dividing Light Sword?"

Ying Xiaoxiao remained calm and composed, without even moving an inch. She lightly raised her right hand, flicked her finger, and a sharp sword aura shot out from her fingertip.

The sword energy, seemingly casually swung, exploded the moment it touched the eight sword lights, transforming into countless tiny sword beams that precisely neutralized Lan He's attack without even a ripple.

"Junior Brother seems to have a wide range of knowledge in the martial arts of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace."

Her tone was calm, and before she finished speaking, she swung her hand back, sending an even sharper sword aura piercing through the air!

The sword energy swelled in mid-air, transforming into a giant cyan sword over ten feet long. Runes flowed across the blade, carrying the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, as it slashed down towards Lan He!

Superior spiritual martial art, Azure Sky-Piercing Sword!

Lan He's gaze sharpened, but instead of retreating, he advanced. He formed hand seals, fully activating the Devouring Heaven Creation Technique, and unleashed a palm strike.

Devouring Yuan Palm!

The moment the cyan giant sword struck down, a strange devouring force surged from Lan He's palm, like an invisible giant maw, peeling away the sharp sword energy layer by layer and devouring it inch by inch!

The attack, which was originally enough to severely injure a seventh-level Nirvana Realm cultivator, had less than 30% of its power when it landed on him, and he easily neutralized it.

"Um?"

A glimmer of light finally flashed in Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes, and the nonchalance in her eyes faded, replaced by seriousness and scrutiny.

She could see clearly that the power of her sword energy was not blocked, but rather absorbed. It felt like punching cotton, only to have the cotton absorb some of the force.

"What a bizarre technique."

She murmured to herself, her tone becoming more serious.

In the next instant, Ying Xiaoxiao moved and took the initiative to attack. She formed hand seals, and her sword energy surged. Streams of cyan sword light poured down on Lan He like a torrential rain!

Instead of retreating, Lan He advanced, pushing the Devouring Creation Technique to its limit. The devouring power around him formed invisible vortexes, dissolving the overwhelming sword light layer by layer.

At the same time, he flipped his palms and unleashed a series of Devouring Yuan Palm strikes, each palm precisely meeting Ying Xiaoxiao's attack, using her force against her, and giving it back to himself.

The two sides clashed fiercely on the jade platform, exchanging blows!

Ying Xiaoxiao's swordsmanship was fierce and unparalleled; every move was at the level of superior spiritual martial arts. Wherever her sword light passed, even the air was torn apart with sharp explosions. Lan He's Devouring Heaven Creation Technique, on the other hand, was unpredictable and always managed to neutralize the opponent's attacks at crucial moments, even turning the tables and absorbing some of the opponent's power for his own use, becoming stronger with each battle!

In the blink of an eye, dozens of moves had passed!

boom!

Another fierce collision ensued, and the two men were each pushed back several feet, landing steadily on opposite ends of the jade platform.

Lan He's breathing quickened slightly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but his eyes were filled with excitement as he exclaimed loudly, "That was exhilarating! Truly exhilarating!"

Since entering the battlefield of the Hundred Dynasties, this was the first time he had encountered an opponent who could make him go all out and fight a thoroughly enjoyable battle.

Ying Xiaoxiao stood still, her expression still calm, only her brows were slightly furrowed.

She glanced down at her palm, where traces of the devouring power from their earlier exchange remained.

She could clearly feel that with each attack, a portion of her Yuan energy was quietly absorbed by the opponent the instant they made contact.

Although she only absorbed a small amount each time, perhaps one or two tenths, after dozens of moves, she began to feel a strange sensation of her energy being drained.

What a bizarre technique.

She looked up at Lan He, her eyes filled with scrutiny and seriousness.

This newly recruited junior is no ordinary person.

Lan He stood with his hands behind his back, a faint smile playing on his lips, his tone carrying a deliberate provocation: "Senior Sister, aren't you going to use the Heavenly Emperor Scripture? If this is all the Heavenly Palace disciples are capable of, then I'll truly disappoint you—"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding disciples immediately erupted in uproar.

"Is this kid crazy? How dare he talk to Senior Sister like that!"

"He doesn't know his place! Senior Sister was clearly letting him have his way!"

"Just wait and see, when Senior Sister gets serious, she can take him down in one move!"

Ying Huanhuan was the first to jump up, her red dress billowing, her beautiful eyes wide with anger. "Hey! How can you be so arrogant? My sister wasn't even using her full strength! Do you really think you're so great?"

Ying Xiaoxiao reached out and stopped her sister, looking calmly at Lan He with a slight smile on her lips.

"Since Junior Brother wishes to see the Heavenly Emperor Scripture, then so be it."

As soon as she finished speaking, a glint flashed in her clear eyes, and a serious expression suddenly appeared on her face. She moved swiftly, leaping into the air, her slender hands flashing as she formed a dazzling array of hand seals!

Buzz!

As Ying Xiaoxiao changed her hand seals, everyone could clearly feel that the Yuan energy fluctuations in this world were starting to boil over. The vast and boundless fluctuations, like surging waves, swept outwards from her center in all directions.

The entire world seemed to dim at that moment.

As the primordial energy of heaven and earth surged, a rich light emanated from Ying Xiaoxiao's body, making her appear extremely dazzling, like a goddess descending to earth!

More and more disciples had gathered around, forming layers around the Dan River, their eyes fixed on the dazzling figure in mid-air.

"Senior Sister is about to unleash the Emperor's Scripture!"

"Good heavens, how long has it been since we've seen Senior Sister use her real skills?"

"This newcomer has some skill to have pushed Senior Sister to this point—"

"What good is having some skill? Just wait and see, one move, just one move!"

Exclamations rose and fell, and everyone stared wide-eyed, not wanting to miss this rare sight.

Lan He looked up at the figure in mid-air, his eyes showing no fear, but rather a burning fighting spirit.

The Emperor's plan? That suits him perfectly.

What's the use of just burying yourself in studying it? He'll know everything once he's fought through the Four Great Classical Scriptures and discovered their mysteries one by one.

"Junior brother, be careful!"

Seeing Lan He so excited, Ying Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness. Then she took a deep breath, suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, and her changing hand seals suddenly froze.

Boom!

A monstrous surge of primordial energy gathered wildly behind Ying Xiaoxiao like a giant wave. The sheer power of that energy was so immense that it almost shattered the entire sky. Countless gazes looked on in horror, only to see that the surging primordial energy had transformed into a giant light sword nearly a hundred feet long!

The lightsaber was dazzling, with runes flowing across its blade, each line radiating a heart-stopping aura.

It hovered in mid-air, its tip pointing diagonally downwards. Just its mere presence distorted the surrounding space, as if it could not withstand the pressure of this force.

The Daoist disciples watching changed their expressions drastically, and many subconsciously took several steps back. The destructive aura emanating from the sword made them clearly feel that if this sword were to strike them, they would probably not even be left with ashes.

"The Emperor's Scripture, the Great Heavenly Cloud-Piercing Sword!"

Ying Xiaoxiao's clear, cold voice rang out. She stood atop the giant sword, her robes fluttering, like an empress within the sword. With a sudden swing of her jade hand, the light sword, carrying a world-destroying force, slashed down towards Lan He!

Wherever the sword passed, the air was torn open with dark cracks, and the sharp whistling of the sword pierced the sky, making people's eardrums ache.

Lan He looked up at the colossal sword that blotted out the sky, feeling the terrifying pressure that could crush him into dust. Instead of fear, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Finally, I've met a worthy opponent!

He suddenly formed hand seals, so fast that they left afterimages in front of him. The next instant, a monstrous black light surged out from his body like a black torrent, instantly covering half the sky!

The black light was so dense that it seemed to devour even the light itself, blotting out the sky and creating a stark contrast with the dazzling lightsaber.

The black light rippled and writhed, gradually coalescing into a shape under countless shocked gazes, transforming into an ancient behemoth with a completely black body!

The behemoth was as large as a mountain, its entire body jet black, with no eyes or nose, except for a single, strikingly large, black maw. When that maw opened, it seemed capable of swallowing the heavens and the earth, emanating a ferocious aura originating from ancient times.

The Gluttonous Demon!

When this ancient behemoth appeared, a terrifying suction force emanated from its gigantic mouth, instantly creating a fierce wind. The primal energy of heaven and earth was forcibly torn away and poured into that giant mouth, as if it were a bottomless abyss that could never be filled.

"That's—the ferocious beast Taotie?"

"What kind of cultivation technique does he practice? How can he even summon something like this?"

A collective gasp filled the air, and countless eyes were filled with horror and disbelief.

Lan He stood behind the phantom of the Taotie, a slight smile playing on his lips.

His primordial spirit was originally formed by devouring the primordial spirit of Taotie. Now, when he uses this Devouring Creation Technique created by observing Taotie, it is a perfect match, as if Taotie is alive and devours everything!

"go!"

He let out a low shout and thrust out with his palm.

The gluttonous spirit roared to the sky, its huge mouth suddenly opened, and swallowed the sky-covering, cloud-piercing sword whole!

boom!

The moment the giant sword entered its mouth, the gluttonous phantom trembled violently, and the destructive waves on the sword's blade raged wildly, attempting to tear the ferocious beast apart from the inside! However, the strange devouring power dissipated layer by layer, stripping away, decomposing, and absorbing all the violent power!

A few breaths later, everything returned to calm.

That colossal sword, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

The world fell silent instantly, so quiet that only the sound of the wind and the heavy breathing of the disciples of the Heavenly Palace could be heard.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene in disbelief. That was the Heavenly Emperor Scripture, one of the four great scriptures of the Dao Sect, which was used by the senior sister of the Heavenly Palace. It had actually been swallowed up like that.

Ying Xiaoxiao stood in mid-air, her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with solemnity.

Her Great Heavenly Cloud Sword was actually swallowed up?

What kind of cultivation technique does this newly initiated junior brother practice?
