Simulation becomes reality, have I ever looked down upon the eternity?

Chapter 398: The seventh sword of Fu Xiong’s power, the final showdown!
[Long Yi's figure suddenly flashed, and he tore the phantom with one claw, only to find that Xie Guan's figure once again disappeared into thin air. ]

[The field was filled with wind and rain, and countless water arrows poured down like a rainstorm. The intensive attack was suffocating. ]

【You slowly and calmly make the Buddha seal with your hands. 】

[The two hands slowly loosen, the right palm is raised and placed on the left palm, the two thumbs lightly touch each other, and an aura as immovable as a mountain and sealing off all realms quietly spreads. ]

[You release the hand seal and lightly tap with your fingertips.]

【In an instant! 】

[A void vortex slowly forms in front of your fingertips, and the vortex is filled with the power of confinement and space, gradually expanding as it rotates.]

[Hundreds and thousands of water arrows seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, falling into the whirlpool and disappearing without a trace.]

[Although it was not the first time that Master Lianchi had seen this scene, he could not hide his amazement.]

【Xie Hong spoke slowly, recognizing this hand seal: "One of the three highest hand seals in Buddhism - the 'Dharma Boundary Seal'."】

[“This seal has the ability to return to the abyss and seal all realms. It is the supreme secret method of Buddhism.”]

【Xie Hong is well versed in Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, and recognized it at a glance.】

[This is a hand seal that neither the current Buddhist sect nor many eminent monks have mastered, yet it actually appeared in the hands of a bastard of the Xie family! ]

【Quite absurd! 】

[Those water arrows were so powerful that even a thick city wall would be completely destroyed under such an intensive attack.]

[However, at this moment, before the water arrows even touched the corners of your clothes, they fell into the white vortex like dumplings, without any sound.]

[A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Hua's eyes, and he thought to himself, when did you learn such a powerful Buddhist method? ]

【Long Yi's figure flashed again in the rain, his claws as sharp as lightning, heading straight for Xie Guan.】

【Xie Guan's figure once again turned into smoke and dissipated into nothingness.】

[Lu Hua counted silently, his eyes full of disbelief: "The seventh time of 'Sun Dui Fa Ling Ti'..."]

[Although she doesn't know how many times you can use the Substitute Technique, she knows in her heart that this technique cannot be used infinitely.]

[What's more, with Long Yi's current strength, your body will be crushed in an instant with just a slight touch.]

[You don't even dare to use your sword to block Long Yi's claws. You can only dodge and substitute constantly, and you are in danger.]

[Long Yi's figure disappeared again, leaving only his low roar in the rain.]

【The sky is full of rain and the scene is filled with water! 】

[There is also a waterspout moving slowly in the field. ]

[Lu Hua is getting more and more anxious. She knows that you can't make any mistakes at all. If Long Yi seizes only one chance, he will tear you into pieces.]

[The ninth piece of talisman paper slowly falls! ]

[Long Yi summoned a turbulent wave from the river, and sat astride it. With the impact of the waves, his figure appeared and disappeared, and his attack became more and more fierce.]

[Once again, Long Yi's sharp claws broke through Xie Guan's figure, but Xie Guan disappeared again.]

【Long Yi's face was filled with more anger, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.】

[He couldn't remember how many times he had smashed Xie Guan's figure.]

【Long Yi thought to himself, his face gradually darkening, Xie Guan couldn't always be a substitute.】

[He simply stopped and coldly stared at Xie Guan who appeared again in the field, with a sarcastic smile on his face, revealing a mouthful of densely packed fangs.]

[“How can you…run now?” His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of mockery.]

【Xie Hong, who was standing behind Long Yi, looked around and found that the ground was already covered with water. The previous waterspout and the huge waves summoned by Long Yi had disappeared without a trace. He looked thoughtful.】

[You did not respond to Long Yi's provocation, and quickly formed a Buddhist seal with your hands, and your fingertips gently moved. ]

[A black vortex slowly forms in front of you, completely different from the white vortex before. The vortex is bulging and churning, as if something is about to come out.]

[A hint of understanding flashed across the magician's eyes, and he whispered, "Do unto others as they would have you do unto them."]

[The next moment! ]

[Hundreds of water arrows suddenly shot out from the vortex, exactly the same as the water arrows Long Yi had created using the waterspout before.]

[Long Yi snorted coldly, and exhaled a stream of cold air, condensing a crystal clear ice shield in front of him.]

[The water arrows all hit the ice shield, making a "chi chi" sound. Puffs of green smoke rose from the surface of the ice shield, but it was not penetrated.]

【Long Yi was puzzled. This was clearly his method, so why could Xie Guan perform it? Although he was puzzled, he could vaguely sense the aura of Buddhist skills in the black and white vortex.】

[The seals in your hands slowly dissipated. Apparently, this attack did not cause any substantial damage to Long Yi. This was all within your expectations.]

[You turned your eyes slightly and noticed that Long Yi did not continue to approach, but stood not far away, staring at you with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dying person.]

[The waterspout in the field has dissipated, and the waves have returned to calm. ]

[The river fog gradually dissipated, and the cold moonlight fell, illuminating a messy battlefield.]

[The bluestone floor was covered with water stains, and countless pits were created by the water arrows. The accumulated water reflected the bright moon in the sky, like pieces of broken mirrors.]

[You know in your heart that Long Yi's real killer move is about to come. ]

[Perhaps, all his previous offensives were for the purpose of planning at this moment.]

[You look down at the ground, and the shadow of the moon in the water sways slightly, as if foreshadowing something.]

【Sudden!】

[Long Yi's figure moved, and he murmured an obscure spell, his whole body emitting a chill.]

[The accumulated water on the ground suddenly boiled, and countless water droplets in the potholes rose into the air, turning into sharp water spikes, suspended in the air, flashing cold light.]

【Long Yi said coldly: "Xie Guan...it's time to end."】

[Before he finished speaking, countless water spikes poured down like a rainstorm, aiming directly at your vital points! ]

[The entire space is completely blocked, you have nowhere to hide! ]

[Water thorns are all over the field, densely packed, like a net of death, completely enveloping you. ]

[Lu Hua's expression suddenly changed, his eyes filled with anxiety.]

[It turns out that this is Long Yi's final killer move! ]

[Even if you use the Substitute Technique now, there is no ground to hide on. ]

【"Oops!"】

[Her heart sank, and she was about to help, but Master Lianchi gently stopped her, "Don't worry."]

[Lu Hua was extremely anxious, but he could only watch as thousands of ice spikes shot towards you like a rainstorm of pear blossoms.]

[The surrounding cold air suddenly erupted, stirring up a vast expanse of white water vapor, obscuring the vision. ]

[The master waved his sleeves, and the sword energy of the "Spring and Autumn Pen" in his hand burst out, blowing away the mist. ]

【Long Yi's face was gloomy, and only countless broken icicles were left in the field. Xie Guan's figure had disappeared without a trace, and only a piece of yellow talisman paper and an illusory butterfly fluttering gently were left.】

[Another stand-in! ]

[Lu Hua opened his Dharma Eyes again, his eyes as fast as lightning, and quickly searched for Xie Guan's figure.]

[I didn't find anything!] [Long Yi's eyes suddenly locked onto the ground, and he saw a piece of soil slowly rising up, forming a large bulge.]

[The soil cracked open, and your figure jumped out from it. ]

【Seeing this, Lu Hua let out a long sigh and thought to himself: I didn't expect you to have anticipated Long Yi's killing move and hid underground in advance.】

[Only then did she realize that Xie Guan on the ground was just an illusion created by using the Mirage Butterfly Technique, one of the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu", and the real you had already used the fourth technique, "The Hidden Bear Dividing Power Technique", to hide underground using the technique of controlling the earth.]

[The seven techniques of Yin Fu Jing - nourishing the mind, flourishing the spirit, soaring the snake, dividing the power, eating corpses, turning the circle, and damaging the mirage butterfly, correspond to "calming the mind", "seeking luck", "controlling water", "controlling the earth", "seizing the soul", "substitute", and "illusion" respectively.]

[The seven arts complement each other and have infinite uses, and you have been able to apply them flexibly and master them. ]

[Lu Hua was horrified. It has only been a short time and you have already mastered this level!]

[The magician watched coldly from the sidelines, and understood clearly in his heart: "These three Taoist arts should be Long Yitian's natural talents. He is not proficient in advanced martial arts."]

[This is also the weakness of demons - they are born with strong bodies, but they cannot truly transform into human form, so it is difficult for them to learn the martial arts manuals of the world, and they cannot compare with the true great masters of the world. ]

[Although Xie Guan relied on the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu" and the two major Buddhist hand seals to respond calmly during the fight, he also exposed his own weaknesses.]

[Although Xie Guan's methods are varied, he lacks a strong offensive technique and cannot pose a fatal threat to Long Yi.]

[Long Yi exhaled a thick white breath. Although he had a deep cultivation base, he had already consumed a lot of energy from using the three control techniques of "Water Tornado", "Calling Waves" and "Ice Spikes" in succession.]

[However, he is not in a hurry because he sees that you cannot break through his defense.]

[You have already performed many Taoist magics, and your cultivation is far inferior to his. You should be the first to collapse.]

[As long as he makes some adjustments and recovers his strength, that will be your death.]

[Your expression remains unchanged, the "Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword" in your hand trembles slightly, and a sharp sword intent emerges from the sword's edge, wrapping around the sword like a swimming snake.]

[Lu Hua stares at you, wondering, what other cards do you have? ]

[The seven sword intentions in your heart gradually light up, like stars.]

[Lu Hua knew that you were about to use Mr. Er's Nine Swords. However, even the "Demon Slaying Sword" that you had mastered for the longest time and was the most effective against demons could not cause any substantial damage to Long Yi.]

[What other sword intent can turn the situation around? ]

[She sighed inwardly: "Xie Guan's cultivation is too low after all. If he could reach the same realm as Long, the 'Demon Slaying Sword' alone would be enough to make Long flee.]

[At this moment, the sword in your hand suddenly trembles, and the sword intent surges out like a tide.]

[The “Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword” was first stained with a clear light, and then a touch of heat emerged. ]

[Lu Hua recognized it at a glance. This is exactly the sword intent of the two swords, "Slay Ghosts" and "Slay Demons"! ]

[The third sword intent quietly emerged, and a layer of misty clouds lingered above the sword.]

[The magician saw this and slowly spoke: "This is the sword intention of the second master - Guanyun."]

[“When the Second Master was nineteen years old, he climbed a mountain and saw the clouds and mist rising and falling. He then realized the first sword technique - Observing the Clouds.”]

[“White clouds merge when I look back, green mist disappears when I look in, and the mist rises from Yunmeng Lake.”]

[The sword's power is like clouds, vague and uncertain, yet contains infinite changes. ]

[Immediately afterwards, a new sword intent emerged from the sword, carrying the meaning of life and death. The black power of annihilation lingered around the sword, as if it could devour all life.]

【"Amitabha!"】

【Master Lianchi saw this, put his hands together, and whispered: "The real way to restrain Buddhism."】

[He was most familiar with this sword intent, and a deep fear appeared in his eyes.]

[Back then, Mr. Er entered Buddhism and realized the fourth sword - extinction.]

[Mr. Er's nine swords are all for attacking, and none of them are for defense.]

[The Nine Swords can conquer all the magic in the world. Three thousand sects, demons, ghosts and monsters all bow down under their swords.]

[It can be said that one sword can break all laws! 】

[Master Lianchi's eyes flashed with surprise. Although he knew that Xie Guan had inherited the legacy of Master Er, he did not expect that he had mastered the two swords in such a short time.]

[However, on second thought, the two highest hand seals of Buddhism, which have not been comprehended by Buddhist sects of all generations, were comprehended by Xie Guan, which shows that his talent is very high and rare in the world.]

[The magician's eyes focused, and he saw a new sword intent emerging from the "Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword".]

[The sound of birds chirping could be heard faintly from the sword, as if a phoenix from the sky was hovering above it.]

[“This is… Feng Ming.” The magician whispered, with a hint of reminiscence in his tone.]

[“When the Second Master stepped into the Changshengtian grassland, he saw the mighty wind and realized the seventh sword - Wind Sound.”]

[“The phoenix flies through the clouds, and the sound of the wind can be heard thousands of miles away.”]

[The magician had personally witnessed the Second Master draw his sword on the grassland. That sword cut down the clouds in the sky and turned them into a heavy spring rain.]

[That is "Wind Sound", one of the Nine Swords. ]

[At this moment, the wind-sounding sword intent gradually condensed on the "Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword" in Xie Guan's hand, and the sword tip trembled slightly, as if resonating with the long wind between heaven and earth.]

【Lu Hua saw that Xie Guan had already used the five swords - "Demon Slaying", "Ghost Slaying", "Cloud Observation", "Extinction", and "Wind Sound", and concluded that this should be the complete nine swords of the Second Master that Xie Guan had comprehended.】

[To comprehend the three swords in such a short period of time is already shocking. 】

[Long Yi's face also showed a solemn expression. Facing the sword intent of Mr. Er, he couldn't help but feel a little afraid.]

【However, at this moment——】

[A new sword intent suddenly emerged from the "Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword". This sword intent was completely different from the previous one, revealing a profound sense of space.]

[“This is… Lianxu!”]

[The elder master had a complex expression, with both emotion and shock, and murmured in a low voice: "This is the sword of the universe that the second brother realized when he saw me traveling freely. One sword can cross hundreds or thousands of miles."]

[“Lianxu” is the most mysterious sword among the Second Master’s nine swords. It is said that this sword can cut through the void and is rarely seen in the world.]

[You hold the "Three Truths and Ten Thousand Laws Sword" in your hand, and the six sword intentions interweave. Wherever the sword points, it seems that even space is torn apart.]

【Long Yi's pupils suddenly shrank like needles, and his mind was shocked. He had never expected that Xie Guan's enlightenment would reach this level! 】

[Its body is full of golden colors, and its protective scales are like the undulating waves. The layers of Qi are stacked up to form a copper wall and iron wall that is indestructible.]

[The two people's auras intertwined, following each other like a shadow, and there was no escape. Xie Guan's substitution technique was no longer useful. ]

【Long Yi is not a dull person, he will not sit and wait for Xie Guan's sword intent to be perfected.】

[The magician narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured: "This is the final duel."]

【Xie Guan's skill in choosing the right moment happened in the split second when Long Yi was regulating his breathing.】

【At this time! 】

[Lu Hua's pupils suddenly dilated, filled with disbelief.]

[She witnessed with her own eyes that the sword's power was condensed again on the Wanfa Sword, shining brightly.]

【“The…Seventh Sword!” After saying this, he could not hide his shock. 】

[Even the magician was filled with amazement. ]

【Xie Guan mastered the Five Swords in a short period of time! 】
