Chapter 322: Chapter 26 The Struggle of the Taoist Sect
“Puff!” “Puff!” “Puff!”
Each thrust of the sword was precisely piercing through the critical part of the lion beast’s head.
Blood continuously splattered out, each Middle Third Grade lion beast in front of the gray-robed youth, resembled pigs waiting for slaughter.
Precision, unmatched precision!
Every strike was a killing blow!
The gray-robed youth’s eyes gleamed sharply, turning into a cold machine, delivering precise and flawless thrust after thrust, each one just right, without wasting even a little strength.
In another scene, however, a hundred ferocious and mad lion beasts were similarly attacking a white-robed youth; also a Sword Cultivator, but the style was completely different.
The gray-robed youth fought alone with a sword, charging into formation, while the white-robed youth was like commanding troops, strategizing behind the curtains.
Twelve extremely slender Flying Swords revolved around him, moving in a strange but orderly trajectory at high speed.
The Flying Swords were like cavalry in battle, producing clanging sounds, fierce Sword Qi lingering and condensing among the twelve swords, linking together to form an incredibly sharp blade of Sword Qi.
This was a Sword Array made up of Flying Swords.
The blade of Sword Qi kept shooting out rapidly, like a rain of swords.
For a time, the entire Illusion Space was filled with Sword Light, and the lion beasts were similarly unable to withstand these Sword Lights.
The gray-robed youth, named Yu Cibei, thirty-nine years old, in the late Golden Core stage, a Sword Cultivator.
The white-robed youth, called Cao Xiaoxin, thirty-eight years old, at Golden Core Perfection, a Sword Cultivator.
“Yu Cibei excels in External Sword, mastering the Wind Attribute Sword Intent; Cao Xiaoxin is proficient in Internal Sword, the art of dividing swords and Sword Arrays.
At present, it seems that the strongest Sword Cultivator in this Seven Domains discourse is one of these two.
Taibai, these two, even if placed in your sect full of exceptional cultivators, would also be considered Sword Embryo Seeds, I wonder if they catch your eye?” Grandmaster Xuanji said, chuckling.
Sword Cultivation is divided into External Sword and Internal Sword, Internal Sword being the Flying Sword Technique, and External Sword being the Sword Technique.
Neither is superior to the other, and there is no barrier between them, but each Sword Cultivator’s focus always tends to lean one way.
And these two Sword Cultivators just so happened to focus on one over the other.
“They are both quite good,” Taibai Sword Master nodded in agreement.
“Only a pity, although these two Sword Cultivators both have the potential for the top ten, they do not have the appearance of taking the top spot,” remarked the Yi River Hall Master fairly.
The seven great sects always had some comparisons between them, not to mention, they each represented a cultivation system, competing was inevitable.
In an event involving the entire Human Race like the Seven Domains discourse, everyone naturally hoped that the victor would be a Cultivator who would eventually join their sect.
Thus, the great cultivators of the seven sects had already begun to lean towards cultivators of their own sect’s cultivation style in their speech.
Take Lin Guihai, a dual cultivation of Dharma and physical body, even leading to a not-so-apparent contention between the Great Pure Palace and Dragon Elephant Temple.
Yet the Taibai Sword Master seemed indifferent to this, merely curling the corner of his mouth and replying with a smile, “Indeed, they are still lacking a bit of maturity.”
……
On the twenty-fourth floor of the Seal Spirit Tower.
A slender man, his hand releasing one bundle of flames after another.
Once released, the flames transformed into numerous Red Lotus Flowers.
For a time, the entire sky was filled with countless Red Lotus Flowers, the scene spectacularly dazzling.
Each flower, transformed from flames, upon touching the body of the guardian illusion, would instantly spread, covering it entirely and restraining its movements.
The slender man’s skin all over his body displayed a fiery red hue, his figure speeding into a Teleportation Array under the envelopment of the flames.
When the guardian illusion struggled to break free from the bind of the Red Lotus Flowers, trying to eject the slender man from the Teleportation Array.
The slender man, however, calmly reached into the void, a rich Flame Element Qi bursting forth from inside him, soaring upward.
Even some of the Flame Element Qi overflowed, forming various Fire Spirit Objects like fire crows, Fire Wolves, Fire Leopards, and others, frolicking around the slender man.
Faintly, behind that man, a Divine Tree’s phantom emerged.
Divine Tree protection!
All attacks that approached were mostly intercepted by fire spirit objects, and any that slipped through evaporated into nothingness in the presence of the divine fire tree’s might.
Because these flames were not ordinary, they were the most terrifying Netherfire in the world!
“This is the result of comprehending the fire attribute intent to an extremely high level, enabling the control of the wild Netherfire as if directing one’s own arm!” said a cultivator dressed in a crimson Daoist robe, standing atop a southern mountain, murmuring to himself as he witnessed the scene.
He was Jinyang Great Honor, the deputy hall master of the top-tier sect, Candle Dragon Hall.
A thought crossed Jinyang Great Honor’s mind, and the information about the slender man immediately appeared before his eyes.
Mo Yan, twenty-three years old, Golden Core Middle Stage, Loose Cultivator.
The next moment, a look of appreciation and fervor emerged in Jinyang Great Honor’s eyes, “Twenty-three years old, at the Golden Core Middle Stage! And to possess such a profound mastery of Fire Method, we must secure this person for our Candle Dragon Hall!”
The Great Pure Palace is the only Taoist Sect among the Dharma Cultivation sects, known for its Thunder Spell.
And their Candle Dragon Hall is the strongest among the Fire Method sects, not a Taoist Sect but still a top-tier competitor.
He believed that the allure of Candle Dragon Hall for cultivators who excelled in Fire Method was second to none compared to Taoist Sects!
Besides, there were many other remarkable cultivators, like the Spiritual Cultivator Cui Liang at the 25th layer of the Seal Spirit Tower, who at the age of thirty-six had achieved Golden Core Perfection and was capable of performing thousands of variable Spirit Arts, making him unpredictable.
Similarly, at the 25th layer of the Seal Spirit Tower, the Nether Cultivator Song Chen, who was highly skilled in the eerie Blood River Technique and masterful in Illusion Techniques, and the cultivator from the Eighth Grade sect White Bone Peak, Baiguan Daozi, had also made it to the 25th layer…
If Baiguan Dao is considered the first tier, then these individuals are definitely the second tier, all of them strong contenders in the eyes of great Taoist Sect cultivators for the top ten positions in the Seven Domains Convention.
As for the thousands of cultivators that followed, they weren’t much of a concern for now.
In the light of these genius cultivators, their presence seemed trivial.
….
Inside the illusion space on the 16th layer.
Lu Qingshan once more swung his sword, decapitating the last green wolf illusion in this layer, as the teleportation spiritual light immediately enveloped him.
Intentionally, the killing intent on him was slowly accumulating and growing stronger, his eyes red with bloodshot, and his body emanating a grim air of slaughter.
This state appeared very similar to when he had fallen into a demonic state in the Demon Spirit Tomb.
But Lu Qingshan understood, it was indeed vastly different.
Because at this moment, his mind was exceptionally clear, completely unaffected by the slaughter!
During the teleportation, he even took a leisurely glance at his ranking.
Lu Qingshan (Southern Territory)
Layer: 16th Layer
Total Ranking: 77567
Domain Ranking: 7542
…
As the scenery changed, the next moment, Lu Qingshan appeared in the illusion space of the 17th layer of the Seal Spirit Tower.
This was a vast plain, with ninety massive leopard demons either lying down or sitting across the wilderness.
A total of ninety Third Grade initial stage leopard demon illusions!
Lu Qingshan glanced at them, sat down cross-legged without a word, circulated his cultivation technique, and prepared to recover the spiritual power he had expended in the 16th layer.
“My lord, perhaps use the Dragon Sparrow Sword…” a gentle voice of Qin Yitian transmitted into Lu Qingshan’s mind.
“No need, you are my trump card, an exam this minor isn’t worth revealing your presence,” Lu Qingshan responded indifferently, “Don’t worry, even if I only use the Peach Blossom, I am confident.”
“I naturally trust you, my lord, I just don’t want you to be so worn out…” Qin Yitian’s gentle voice flashed within the heart of Lu Qingshan and quickly fell silent again.
Qin Yitian knew how precious time was for Lu Qingshan right now, so she didn’t want, nor did she intend, to disturb him further.
Lu Qingshan cracked a slight smile, his eyes softly closed, and he quickly immersed himself back into the circulation of his cultivation technique and the comprehension of slaughter sword intent.
