Chapter 418 Sword Breaks Through White Bones Myriad Manifestations Technique

Bai Zichen no longer concealed his swordsmanship realm of refining swords into threads. A blazing sun sword thread sliced ​​through the White Bone Lock Heart Hammer, cutting it into two smooth halves.

Even with enough strength left, the bone shield shattered into several pieces, and the crazed old man Shen clearly showed a look of fear.

Even without using the Moon Spinning Sword, the Sun Furnace Sword is still enough to dominate the Core Formation realm.

"Who are you! How could you possibly break the True Monarch's secret technique? No one below the Nascent Soul stage could possibly withstand the White Bone Myriad Manifestations Technique empowered by Netherworld Qi!"

Old Man Shen's skeleton trembled, and the few remaining pieces of flesh fell away.

"Damn it, this time it will take hundreds of clansmen to reassemble this old man's flesh and blood!"

Two ribs were pulled out and transformed into white bone flying swords, two forearm bones transformed into white bone banners, and two shoulder bones flew out and became white bone staffs.

The six magical artifacts were spread out everywhere, and every space on the round platform was filled with eerie bone shadows, making it impossible to avoid them.

"Using the flesh and blood of fellow cultivators to refine one's own skeletal body is a demonic method even purer than that of demonic cultivators... It is said that the cultivation world in the Southern Region is a dog-eat-dog world where the strong prey on the weak, and no means are spared, with the atmosphere almost universally demonic. I did not expect that the Eastern Region is no less so!"

Bai Zichen sighed. Fortunately, although there were open and covert struggles within the Bai family he came from, they were all confined to a large framework, and he also had a close elder to guide him.

The difference between this and the Shen family of Beihe, whose members could die mysteriously at any moment, their flesh and bones becoming part of the clan leader, is like heaven and earth.

The Qingfeng Sect even prides itself on being the orthodox sect of Taoism, strictly prohibiting methods of quick success such as slaughtering living beings and sacrificing blood. Not to mention the common practice among demonic sects of using disciples without powerful backers as expendable resources, or even directly refining them into magical artifacts.

This allowed him to grow up without worrying too much about internal power struggles, only needing to deal with external risks.

Originally, I thought that Old Man Shen did not deserve to die, but now I just want to chop that pile of bones into pieces.

Thunder Sound Sword, Invisible Sword, and Azure Dragon Havoc in the Sea Sword flew out from the dantian, each transforming into sword light to block the countless magical artifacts in the sky.

With the Moonlit Sword in hand, the moonlight is like water, and a single sword strike can break through all laws, easily destroying all magic and supernatural powers.

The Great Sun Furnace Sword is considered top-tier among third-tier flying swords, but it is fundamentally different from fourth-tier flying swords.

This so-called Myriad Manifestations of White Bones technique involves the Netherworld Coffin, so it's best to be cautious and finish this quickly.

The four flying swords were all carefully considered by him, and were suitable for Li Hansi's identity to wield.

The four sword threads crisscrossed, creating an astonishing spectacle that left Chen Ze and the Kong brothers stunned.

Using two swords simultaneously is already considered the mark of a master swordsman. Simultaneously controlling four flying swords consumes true essence at a rate comparable to releasing water from a floodgate. An ordinary Core Formation cultivator who can withstand this for thirty breaths is considered to have a solid foundation.

Regardless of the issue of true essence, it is not true that the more swords one controls, the greater the power will be.

You also need to have swordsmanship skills that can keep up, and enough exquisite sword moves to match.

Otherwise, instead of just swinging the sword back and forth and smashing things, it would be better to use such vast true energy to activate a powerful cauldron-type magic weapon, which would better bring out its strengths.

The four flying swords displayed four completely different sword styles, dazzling the eyes of the audience.

The Blazing Sun Sword Silk moved with sweeping, powerful strokes, abandoning complex variations and suppressing the two white bone sword lights, reducing them to a dim circle.

The lightning sword threads were so fast that they were imperceptible to the naked eye. Only by hearing the thunderous sounds they left behind could one react. It pierced through a white bone banner, leaving it riddled with holes and on the verge of being destroyed.

The emerald waves were gentle and soft, like a flowing stream, continuous and endless. The white bone banners fluttered repeatedly, but they could not capture the shadow of the emerald waves; only a pool of clear water remained on the banners.

After several rounds, the white bone banner lost its edge and began to fall into the attack of the green wave sword silk. The banner shrank smaller and smaller until it was only the size of a square scarf.

The Formless Sword Silk is the most unpredictable. There is no trace of sword light, only faint ripples on the water, which completely blocked the two white bone staffs.

At the same time, he pushed the Heavenly Illusion Sword Technique to its limit, creating layers of sword shadows and illusions. Although he was being chased and attacked by the two white bone staffs, it was all the sword shadows that took the hits. The formless sword itself was never caught, appearing and disappearing at will between reality and illusion.

He obtained the Wuzhen Sword Technique in his youth and has been constantly reflecting on and practicing it for over a hundred years, which is not a short time for any supernatural power.

Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch with a lifespan of a thousand years could not possibly cultivate multiple great supernatural powers that take more than a hundred years to master.

Otherwise, if you practice a couple more skills, you won't have time to do anything else; you'll just waste all your time on them.

The Wuzhen Sword Manual can be considered the sword classic of the Naihe Sect. It is always new and offers different insights every time you read it.

This allowed Bai Zichen to master multiple sword styles, preventing him from developing a fixed style typical of sword cultivators, and enabling him to adapt to different situations at will.

A few breaths later, amidst the booming thunder, the lightning sword threads shattered a white bone banner into pieces before moving on to the next battle.

In the blink of an eye, the massive white bone artifacts were all destroyed, and Shen Moqun's limbs were severed. They were about to capture him and use soul-searching magic to interrogate him about the secrets of the Water Mansion.

Then they saw Old Man Shen's eyeballs instantly ignite, turning into two balls of ghostly fire that engulfed his entire body in flames.

"Kill me! Kill me now!"

Old Man Shen seemed to have returned to normal, but he was wailing in pain, his voice hoarse and strained, and it was clear that the pain he was enduring exceeded the limits that any living being could bear.

The voice started off loud and clear, then faded after a few breaths, until it was barely a whisper, still uttering desperate pleas.

The cries for help quickly ceased, because Old Man Shen had been burned to nothingness by the Netherfire, leaving nothing behind.

A loud, muffled sound came from deep within the water palace, as if something was being activated.

"Chen Ze, a descendant of the Yuanming lineage, greets Uncle Li."

Chen Ze finally killed the two water dragons. When they fell onto the round platform, the town's spirit beast was completely broken, with no part of its body intact.

A round waist plaque in his hand gleamed, from which a lifelike fish-dragon flew out, rolling and splashing in the water.

Clearly, the two Kong brothers had already informed the fellow cultivators of their identities via telepathy.

"With a successor like you, the Yuanming lineage can rest easy."

From the Kong brothers' words, Bai Zichen learned that neither of them had ever met Li Hansi in person, and they only corresponded through letters.

Then there's no need to worry, because your true identity has been revealed by the other party through your words and actions.

He transformed into Li Hansi using a secret physical technique, and concealed the technique with the Heavenly Illusion Bracelet, making it impossible for anyone to detect.

It should be noted that after cultivating to the Five Crystals, his control over his physical body was already extremely meticulous, almost perfect.

Bai Zichen even felt that even if a Nascent Soul True Monarch were to appear in person, they might not be able to see the inconsistency in the physical changes.

Moreover, Bai Zichen's understanding of the Fish-Dragon Sect might not be less than theirs.

He possessed the relics of both the Youlongmen and Xuanming lineages, and since the Bai family ancestor was a descendant of the Chiming lineage, he had no need to worry about being exposed during the conversation.

'Even the sacred beast's essence blood, a lost treasure of the Xuanming lineage, is in my hands. If I so desire, I can use it to reunite the five main lineages and become the master of the Fish-Dragon Sect once more!'

The Azure Emperor's Longevity Sword was split into three parts: the Sword Nourishing Technique, the Sword Condensation Technique, and the Azure Wood Divine Technique. All five main lineages have passed down these techniques.

The key issue is that without the aura of a sacred beast, one cannot take the most crucial first step.

The reason why the Xuanming lineage held the position of sect leader was largely because they possessed the essence blood of the sacred beast.

Even without a Nascent Soul True Monarch, their status would not fall out of the top two of the main lineage.

With the essence of the sacred beast in his hands, Bai Zichen is even more legitimate than Li Hansi, the true successor of Xuanming.

The identity token in his hand also had dragon and fish patterns emerging from it, but it was even more agile and imposing.

The two fish-dragons circled and played, stirring up a whirlpool.

Bai Zichen absorbed two drops of Li Hansi's essence blood, and his physical transformation was virtually identical. He could even fool the inheritance token that had been refined with Li Hansi's own essence blood.

With their identities verified, Chen Ze and the other two clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

In the world of cultivation, mere resemblance is hardly considered evidence.

The Kong brothers were initially intimidated by Bai Zichen's displayed strength, and without considering the consequences, they decided to establish their fellow disciples first.

The five main branches are all remnants of the Fish-Dragon Sect. Even though they have no shortage of cultivation resources, they dare not admit their identities to outsiders.

The lineage can only be described as that of a lucky, independent cultivator who accidentally obtained the inheritance.

Deep in his heart, he always harbored the obsession of reclaiming the Myriad Star Islands and rebuilding the Fish-Dragon Sect.

Even for a second-generation disciple like Chen Ze, who had been instilled with the glorious past of the Fish Dragon Sect by his master since childhood, this idea had long been deeply ingrained in him.

"Why didn't Martial Uncle arrive at the appointment at Rotten Axe Mountain? We finally had the chance to gather the five major lineages together to discuss the opening of the overseas immortal abode... Unfortunately, we were missing the token of the Xuanming lineage, so we couldn't make it happen and had to reschedule."

Chen Ze asked, "According to the original plan, our group should have arrived at the open sea by now."

"On the way here, I encountered an enemy. It took a fierce battle to kill him, but I was slightly injured in the process."

Bai Zichen brandished the Azure Dragon Havoc in the Sea Sword, indicating that it was a spoil of war.

'The Five Veins Gather, the Immortal Abode in the Outer Sea… The Fish-Dragon Sect actually harbors such a secret! It wasn't mentioned at all in the jade slip left by our ancestor. It seems the hidden veins and branch veins have been excluded!'

How could he possibly know about the "Adventure at the Mountain of Hardship"? He could only make up some excuse to brush it off.

"After I recovered from my injuries, I came to the Central Region and happened to be looking for two aquatic spiritual items, which is why I came to the Great Wild Marsh... I saw the Dragon Transformation Scripture's derivative spells and followed it all the way here. Do you know anything about this Water Palace?"

Bai Zichen put away the flying sword. Unfortunately, apart from a water droplet, Old Man Shen left no other treasures.

It seemed that the storage bag, along with the bones, had been burned to ashes by the Netherfire, leaving not a trace.

The content of Li Hansi's correspondence with the other factions was his only weakness, so he immediately took the initiative to ask questions and could no longer dwell on the previous topics.

"So that my martial uncle may know, this was originally the cave dwelling of Wu Sanzang, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Middle Ages, but according to Shen Moqun, there are more stories here..."

Chen Ze recounted the information he had gathered, still feeling a lingering sense of unease.

Originally, he thought that his late-stage Core Formation cultivation was not enough to allow him to move freely in the Great Wilderness Marsh. He deliberately pretended to be a young and impulsive cultivator, and was defeated after fighting others, all to deceive Old Man Shen.

Unexpectedly, Old Man Shen's intention was not to find someone to deal with the spirit beast of the town, and then kill and plunder the treasure to take over the Water Mansion for himself.

From the very beginning, there was no intention to let fellow Core Formation cultivators live even a moment longer; it was entirely about pulling people into blood sacrifices in order to resurrect the so-called past life of Wu Sanzang.

The White Bone Myriad Manifestations Technique is incredibly powerful, and the guardian spirit beast is fearless and unaware of pain, so it doesn't retreat.

Without Bai Zichen's involvement, Chen Ze would very likely have suffered a major setback.
