Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 280: Breaking the body to take the energy, the mutual generation of gold and water; promotion, the fourth level of the Five Elements Reform
The unique skill of kendo is that the sword light turns into a rainbow, guiding the essence of heaven and earth into the sword. When the sword is swung, it is majestic, powerful and unstoppable.

Especially in front of a kendo master, he clearly had the strength of Mount Tai to surpass the North Sea, but he could break into any gap without any gap, and he really felt that no one could stop him.

If it was the black-clothed tree demon from that year, who was unable to distinguish the real from the fake, did not know how to advance or retreat, and only bullied the weak and abused his magic power, he would have been facing the Heavenly Demon Sword head-on at this moment, and would have fallen into a huge disadvantage in a very short time, and might even have been killed on the spot within a few sword strikes.

However, after Lu Cheng used the Magic Banner to extract all the evil spirits from the tree monster's body, although its magic power was greatly diminished, it gained some new insights from the catastrophe and its Taoism improved greatly as a result.

Comparing the current white-clothed tree demon with the past black-clothed tree demon, one has a clear mind but is stronger in Taoism, while the other has a violent temper but is stronger in magic power. If the two were to fight, the white-clothed tree demon might be defeated by the black-clothed tree demon after a long battle, but if it is within a few moves within a limited time, the former can easily play with the latter.

Just like at this moment, the white-clothed tree demon pointed his finger, and the cultivator from the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect felt that the other party's magic power took root in his body and extracted nutrients. In a few breaths, he seemed to turn into a tree man, and his flesh and blood naturally turned into fertilizer and nutrients.

What's more, their consciousness, magic power, five senses, limbs, etc. seemed to be endowed with their own lives, and they refused to give in to each other and were pulling at each other.

This is already cultivating the Nascent Soul magical power domain into one's own magical powers.

The magical domain of a Nascent Soul cultivator expands with itself as the center, affecting the changes in the laws of the surrounding heaven and earth and rejecting all non-self existences.

But it is not easy to use such magical power. It requires the cultivators of the initial stage of the Nascent Soul to adjust their body and mind and use it when they are relatively perfect. In many cases, they simply have no time to use it when fighting with cultivators of the same stage. However, the most skilled cultivators of the Nascent Soul can integrate their own magical power into spells and even magic weapons:

The most typical example is the Buddhist monks. They integrate their own compassionate Dharma into magic weapons. Under the influence of the Dharma, the killing power of the flying sword of an ordinary sword cultivator can be retained by half.

At this moment, the white-clothed tree demon almost displayed such means. Of course, if the Heavenly Demon Sword Cultivator in front of him cultivated a sword technique that was equal to it, he could break it cleanly and neatly. The sword cultivator's Nascent Soul magical power domain could be entered into the sword almost as soon as it was comprehended, but it was also more difficult to comprehend.

"Ugh!"

With a long sigh, the tall and thin Taoist in black robe suddenly broke out of the state of unity between man and sword, and waved his hand to strike the tree monster.

The white-clothed tree demon raised his palm to meet the attack, and when the two palms collided, a violent vortex of energy almost appeared in the void.

Accompanied by a burst of golden light, the tree demon suddenly disappeared, but the tall and thin Taoist priest had no time left.

He also knew clearly that it was extremely dangerous to rob a concubine of a cultivator of the same level under the noses of the three great cultivators on the main island of Cangyun.

Therefore, before he made his move, he had already cast a sixth-grade top-grade "Flowing Light Escape Talisman" on himself. Once cast, he could escape thousands of miles away in an instant.

Originally, he wanted to use the assassination sword to kill the Taoist Tiexiao of Huanyun Valley, and then kidnap his concubine who possessed the Nine Spirit Sword Body. The talisman was activated and he traveled thousands of miles in an instant.

Even with three great monks in charge, it would be difficult to find out who did it.

But now I can only go by myself.

"Ugh!"

With another long sigh, the platinum glow of the Taoist in black gradually emerged. At this time, Lu Cheng had just completely recovered from the opponent's sword intent. Although he was flying in this direction, he was too late to break his magic. The Taoist in black sighed at this time, just lamenting that he paid a huge price but gained nothing.

After this action by me, not to mention that I will no longer be a cultivator in the Northern Territory, even the sect behind me will probably be implicated. If the three great cultivators of Cangyun Island cannot uphold justice, they will lose face and will no longer have the dignity to lead the group of cultivators.

But at this moment, a fierce cold light flashed in Lin Qinghan's eyes.

With a gesture of her hands, the black tortoise and white tiger animal-shaped puppets that were originally guarding the female fairy on both sides suddenly had light flashing in their eyes, and then suddenly transformed into two rays of light and rushed towards the Taoist in black.

"It's useless. Do you think you are going to do anything with these two bodies?"

Boom!

Gold and water were in turmoil, and two rays of light, icy blue and pale, suddenly exploded and spread around the Taoist in black.

It directly blew away the platinum light around it.

"well done!"

Lu Cheng had never expected that Lin Qinghan would be so decisive and ruthless. The two precious puppets that he bought with 840,000 spirit stones exploded before they even got warm in Lin Qinghan's hands.

However, this is also the only way for Lin Qinghan to prevent the other party from escaping.

It can only be said that she is worthy of being a female cultivator who possesses the spiritual physique of one of the three great sword cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation. Deep in her heart, there is a fierce and arrogant aura:
If you want to kill me, I will definitely kill you. If you are bullied, you must bully back!

Because of Lin Qinghan's momentary delay, in the eyes of the black-robed Taoist, Lu Cheng, who was approaching immediately, seemed to have turned into an angry fist:

Strong, domineering, straightforward, full of power, as if to crush everything!
Sword cultivators are sharp, while body cultivators are fierce.

Although the mainstream in the world of immortal cultivation now is to ascend to heaven through the rainbow body rather than to achieve immortality through the physical body, the latter is the orthodox and represents a higher level of Taoist achievement. In other words, compared to the mainstream in the world of immortal cultivation now, physical cultivation is closer to the orthodoxy.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom…

Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang…

One used his fist, the other swung his sword. The sixth-grade upper-grade flowing light escape talisman was still working, but at this moment, the black-clothed Taoist priest was already entangled by Lu Cheng and could not get rid of him. The two flew up to the sky together, and their speed and strength were naturally greatly suppressed.

In fact, this escape talisman can be carried by not only two people, but also twenty people. However, it could not stop Lu Cheng from destroying it with his punches, and his punches were brutal.

Every time he throws a punch, there are fist shadows all over his body. Every movement is followed by dozens of complex and unpredictable fist forces. He pushes forward and pulls back, runs the energy up and down, and supports left and right. His whole body is full of fist force. When he raises his hands and feet, it is as if a strong wind from the sky blows in his face, blowing everything away.

Of course, Lu Cheng's physical body at this moment could not compete with the flying sword of the Tianyao Sword Sect, which was at least equivalent to the middle grade of the sixth rank.

However, the sword cultivator was forced to this distance by the body cultivator, and even a sword cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage could not keep up with the changes in Lu Cheng's fist techniques, making it difficult for him to hit him with his sword.

At this moment, the defensive bans of the surrounding islands had already locked onto the target. Rays of light of various colors shot up and formed a light curtain like a skynet, covering it.

With the flashes of light, three great monks, Mr. Wei from Bailu Academy, Shi Muqing, the master of Wuyue Island, and Ming Yuchen, the master of Xuanxingshu's secret sect, appeared in the sky. Except for Mr. Wei, the other two had a hint of anger on their faces.

They dared to fight to this extent near the main island of Cangyun. If we don’t deal with them seriously, where will our prestige be?

As the spiritual energy net fell, Lu Cheng punched the Taoist in black on the chest, and the Taoist in black also pressed his palm on Lu Cheng's chest. The two of them fell back but were tightly bound and suppressed by the light net that seemed soft but was actually as dense and tough as diamond.

"What's wrong with you? Do you think there are no laws on Cangyun Island and no Immortal Slaughtering Platform?"

Among the three great monks, Wei Shuyi, who looked the calmest, spoke first. The old scholar had cold eyes that were intimidating.

"Sir, I am a witness to this incident. Please allow me to come forward and speak."

Although more and more Nascent Soul cultivators appeared in the sky, and although the pressure from the three great cultivators was extremely heavy, Lin Qinghan still stepped forward immediately and said this after saluting.

"Before the Shadow Stone is delivered, I can listen to your explanation of the matter first, but if it is discovered later that you lied, I'm afraid you will be held accountable."

"If I tell even a single lie, my soul will be shattered and I will not be reincarnated!"

Since he had no intention of lying, Lin Qinghan certainly dared to swear.

Hearing this, Wei Shuyi's expression improved slightly and he said:
"Okay, then go ahead."

"My husband and I had just left the Yulou Auction when my husband was attacked by this thief. If it weren't for my husband's profound Taoist practice, I'm afraid he would have died by this thief's flying sword. After resisting with difficulty, the thief tried to escape with the Escape Spirit Talisman. My wife used magic to destroy two fifth-level puppets, and my husband used all his strength to stop the thief.

After the Shadow Stone is delivered, it can prove that everything my daughter said is true. Please three senior cultivators make the decision for my daughter and my husband."

This matter was not difficult to judge. Di Jian, the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Tian Yao Sword Sect, knew that he was going to die, so he closed his eyes and did not open his mouth to defend himself.

This man's name is Di Jian. After practicing for so many years, he even gave up his own name and named himself Di Jian.

There was originally a Tianjian in the Tianyao Sword Sect. Hundreds of years ago, these two were called the Twin Swords of Heaven and Earth. However, hundreds of years ago, Tianjian died in battle, while Dijian survived and successfully cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage.

Some time ago, because Lu Cheng took Lin Qinghan to various islands for trading and auctions to purchase spiritual objects, the Nine Spirit Sword Body in Lin Qinghan's body was sensed by the Earth Sword, which had practiced a special mental method.

A cultivator with this kind of spiritual body has an innate sword energy hidden in his body, which often harms the health and lifespan of its owner. However, if he practices swordsmanship, he can make rapid progress and become the disciple that all major sword schools in the world dream of.

But Lin Qinghan was born with water spirit roots, and under the coexistence of gold and water, the innate sword energy did not spread, and had no effect on her health and longevity.

If Lin Qinghan practices sword techniques and sword energy in the later stage, this innate sword energy will still be stimulated, enabling his Taoist practice to advance by leaps and bounds.

However, Lin Qinghan has never liked flying swords since she was a child. She is the type who believes that a cultivator should avoid disasters and practice in peace and hardship. In addition, with the entire Lin family behind her to provide resources for cultivation, Lin Qinghan has never been short of spirit stones and magic tools since she entered the Tao, and she has even less interest in studying the way of the sword.

In fact, this kind of thing is rare, but not uncommon either. There have been mortals and monks who have talents but no opportunities to stimulate them in the past, there are present, and there will be in the future.

"Although the Nine Spirit Sword Body is one of the three great sword cultivation bodies in the world of immortal cultivation, it is of little significance to most cultivators. At most, they accept it as a disciple to pass on the tradition. However, the cultivation method of the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect cultivators is unusual. They integrate their natal flying swords into their bodies, turning the cultivators into sword demons, half human and half sword, half sword and half human, and finally returning to their original state, completely turning into humans, marrying and having children, and no longer bound by shackles.

Even the flying sword can be integrated into the body, not to mention a ray of innate sword energy, which should be able to help the disciples of this sect to open their minds and gain enlightenment, and increase their skills, so the earth sword is so crazy. "After listening to Lin Qinghan's story and looking at the Remaining Shadow Stone, Wei Shuyi stroked his beard and finally came to the conclusion.

"He took them by surprise, used speed to counter speed, and had a Level 6 Escape Talisman. If this young man didn't have some tricks up his sleeve, he would have probably succeeded. We might not even be able to find out who did it."

The old Taoist Ming Yuchen said this.

There is a hidden sword behind the Earth Sword. Without adequate prior precautions, most cultivators in the early Nascent Soul stage would have no chance of escaping from this disaster.

Once the Flowing Light Escape Talisman is activated, it can escape thousands of miles away in an instant.

It was impossible for them to force all the Nascent Soul cultivators who were in retreat to come out and prove their identities, so this matter would most likely be blamed on cultivator Tiannan, and then suppressed as soon as possible to avoid lowering the morale of the group of cultivators.

"Give me this female cultivator. I will use the sect's secret method to nourish her. She will surely be able to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul soon. In the future, I will kill more Tiannan cultivators for you. Isn't that good? She is a Jindan Zhenren. What's the point of keeping her?"

Suddenly, Di Jian, who had been silent all this time, seemed to sense that death was imminent. He suddenly jumped up, struggled and roared.

It was a slight loss of dignity for a Nascent Soul cultivator, but the Tian Yao Sword Sect's cultivators had less emotional fluctuations and didn't care much about this.

Shi Muqing, the only female cultivator among the three great cultivators, casually flicked out a ray of spiritual light, which suddenly turned into lightning when it fell on the sword on the ground, and directly shocked him to the ground, unable to move.

Lin Qinghan is a female Jindan cultivator. In terms of value alone, she is indeed far inferior to a sword cultivator in the middle stage of the Yuanying period. However, in this situation, Lin Qinghan no longer represents a female Jindan cultivator. If Shi Muqing and others do not handle the situation properly, many of the disciples below will become disloyal, and these Yuanying cultivators alone will not be able to defend the Nanli Sea.

A sect must at least maintain superficial fairness and justice. Otherwise, the monks at the lower levels will become disunited and the monks in the middle will be resentful. Then the sect will be on the verge of collapse. Even the demonic sect must abide by some rules.

"Alright, my friend Tie, the matter has been investigated clearly. You and your Taoist partner are not at fault in the whole incident. Go back and rest tonight. I guarantee you in the name of the White Deer Academy that I will give you a satisfactory answer in the future."

The strength of the Tian Yao Sword Sect is not weaker than that of the Xuan Mo Sect in the Cang Yun Mountains.

Even though two Nascent Soul True Lords were killed by Lu Cheng, this sect still had several True Lord-level cultivators in charge.

The Tianyao Sword Sect wanted to punish them, but they couldn't force them to go to the Tiannan Cultivation World. Wei Shuyi was still thinking about using this sect, but the Taoist Tiexiao of Huanyun Valley had to be appeased.

In the Huanyun Valley of the Cangyun Mountains, the three Yuanying True Lords, old, middle-aged and young, all possess extraordinary magical powers and there are signs of revival. Especially this Taoist Tiexiao, whose origins are somewhat mysterious and surprising.

……

Under the starry night, in the night breeze.

Lu Cheng and Lin Qinghan flew back and returned to Kun Island.

However, less than an hour had passed from the sudden attack by the Earth Sword to this moment.

The two people's state of mind was very different, and they both felt that they were on the verge of danger everywhere.

"You are quite courageous and you dare to take action. Facing a Yuanying sword cultivator, you dare to turn defense into offense with your level of magic power. This is worthy of praise."

Lu Cheng broke the silence and said this.

"I saw that you wanted to kill him, so I wanted to help you. I didn't think too much about other things."

Lin Qinghan's pretty face flushed, and then she supported Lu Cheng with both hands and returned to their cave. Only then did she feel completely at ease.

It didn't take long for this major event to spread to many spiritual islands centered on Cangyun Island. Taoist Tiexiao of Huanyun Valley defeated two Nascent Soul sword cultivators of Tianyao Sword Sect in a short period of time. In addition, Huang Daozhong and Liu Hexuan were also quite famous in the previous battles. The names of the three old, middle-aged and young cultivators of this sect gradually spread among the cultivators.

At this point, Huanyun Valley has become an existence that cannot be provoked in the minds of many cultivators. After all, the Tianyao Sword Sect, which once dominated the Nanli Sea, has suffered losses at the hands of this sect.

Just a few days later, an instruction was delivered to the cave in Lucheng, Kunzi Island.

First of all, Bailu Academy came forward to make a guarantee that the cultivators of Tianyao Sword Sect would not appear before the cultivators of Huanyun Valley within 500 years. However, the two sects were far apart from each other, so this would at most make the Tianyao Sword Sect give up revenge, which was not a big deal.

The following three compensations are important:
The first compensation is the sixth-level martial arts technique "The Heavenly Demon Sword Sutra". It is said that a sword demon once practiced this sutra and transformed himself into a human, married and had children, ascended to the upper realm, and achieved the status of a sword immortal.

However, this is just a rumor, otherwise this sword manual would not be a sixth-level technique, but a seventh-level spiritual inheritance.

Even if the Tian Yao Sword Sect really had such a patriarch, they most likely obtained the sword manual indirectly, otherwise, they would not be so unknown.

Since the beginning of the history of cultivators in Dingzhang World, every cultivator who ascended to heaven has been known to the world, because their existence has added to the foundation and destiny of this world. Those cultivators who sneaked into the upper realms are not included.

The second compensation was the storage bag of the Earth Sword. The magic ban on it had been broken, and Lu Cheng had not been able to take it away before. There were four million spirit stones in it, which was obviously the compensation from the Heavenly Demon Sword Sect.

The third compensation was a sixth-level water-shaped pill, which had the effects of replenishing yin and essence, nourishing beauty, increasing mana, and cleansing the meridians and body. It was especially suitable for female cultivators who practiced water-attributed techniques.

The other treasures are fine, but this water-shaped pill seems to have a special meaning.

"Is this pill a compensation for me? But it's a sixth-level pill, and I can't afford it with my mana."

Lin Qinghan was counting these spiritual objects with Lu Cheng, and was confused when he saw this pill.

"No, you can certainly bear it with my help."

Taoist Lu Cheng understood that this was already a clear indication.

Once Lin Qinghan's Nine Spirit Sword Body was exposed, her existence became a temptation to the Tian Yao Sword Sect and even many evil cultivators.

In order to avoid any further trouble, the island master of Wu Yue Island, Shi Muqing, took out the Water-Shaped Pill and asked her husband to use the secret method of the Heavenly Demon Sword Scripture to eliminate the innate sword energy in Lin Qinghan's body. Anyway, she had already cultivated to the Golden Core realm, and normally she would not change her path to practice swordsmanship.

A few days later, Lu Cheng decorated the cave as best he could, entertained guests, used three matchmakers and six betrothals, and followed the ancient rituals of cultivators to marry Lin Qinghan.

"Qinghan, my real name is Lu Cheng. Taoist Tiexiao is just an incarnation of me, and I already have two wives."

"...Senior Brother Lu."

Thousands of affections, tens of thousands of tendernesses are all contained in this one call.

Afterwards, there were beautiful clouds and mist, red candles dimming the gauze curtains, brocade quilts rolling like clouds, and clear springs flowing against the jade walls!
Lu Cheng did not rely on the secret method of the Heavenly Demon Sword Scripture to eliminate the innate sword energy in Lin Qinghan's body, but instead introduced it into his own body to supplement the gold element of his own Five Elements True Spirit Transformation Method, allowing his own martial arts realm to achieve breakthroughs one after another.

The Nine Spirit Sword Body and the innate sword energy are not inferior to the natural true spirit. After obtaining the Heavenly Demon Sword Sutra, Lu Cheng can use this sword energy to transform himself into a sword demon, enlighten his wisdom and make further progress in the way of the sword.

Half a month later, it was still Kun Island.

In the secret retreat room, on the altar.

Taoist Lu Cheng sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, his face solemn. He was surrounded by five-colored light, like five ribbons lingering around his body, slowly spinning.

The fierceness of fire, the thickness of earth, the sharpness of metal, and the vastness of water.

"Breathe, breathe out..."

As Lu Cheng took deep breaths, the four-color light flickered in rhythm, as if in sync with his life breath.

In the firelight, there seemed to be a dragon-shaped beast flying and circling, ready to move; in the yellow light, there seemed to be mountains rising and falling, and giant apes running; in the flashing golden light, it seemed as if a sharp sword was cutting through the sky, and the water light was like a deep ocean, containing endless profound meaning.

These four colors of light are not only beautiful and dazzling, but also contain powerful magic power.

"The ancient flame dragon is of the fire element, and the sun-swallowing ape is of the earth element. I originally planned to discuss obtaining the blood of the true spirit of the gold spirit to supplement the gold element... The golden-winged roc roc roams the world and feeds on dragons. If I can get it, not only will my magic power be greatly improved, but my ability to protect myself in the future will also be greatly increased. Unfortunately, the mood of this demon god outside the world is unpredictable. I thought I had some friendship with her, but after coming to this world, I don't know why, but I have become increasingly distant.

I was planning to look for other targets, but I didn't expect to have such a treasure around me."

Taoist Lu Cheng's hand seals changed rapidly, and each change caused the surrounding five elements to fluctuate.

Among them, the fire, earth and metal elements all already possess spirituality, the water element is also already deep, and only the wood element is still lacking.

As time went by, the five elements of light on Lu Cheng's body gradually merged, and finally gathered into a group of dazzling five elements clouds, spreading and covering the Taoist's body.

The five elements of cloud slowly spread, emitting harmonious and powerful fluctuations, and Lu Cheng's own aura and magic power also reached a new height.

Because metal and water are mutually beneficial, Lin Qinghan practiced the water-based technique, and with the help of the Water Shape Pill, Lu Cheng's Five Elements Reform unexpectedly broke through to the fourth level. As long as Lu Cheng absorbed his true spirit into it, he would truly achieve perfection in the fourth level.

"It's not bad to transform into a sword demon. Although I'm not as powerful as the Golden Winged Dapeng, it can help me gain wisdom and improve my sword skills by looking at the way of the sword from another perspective."
