Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 75 Group Cultivation Attack (Part , Late Update)
The Supreme One said: "I have three treasures, I hold on to them and protect them: one is kindness, two is frugality, and three is not daring to be the first in the world!"

Those who have the virtue hold these three treasures and can avoid all disasters.

However, the lineage of the Great Taoist Patriarch does not accept disciples without innate talent, luck, or fortune, or those with bad character and endowment.

But most people in this world are mediocre after all. If such people practice Taoism without fighting or competing, what kind of Taoism can they talk about?

According to ancient books, even the Supreme Taoist Ancestor once fought with his fellow disciples for the path of his disciples.
After Xuanyin, Chiming, Qingyang and Bishui left Chixin Temple, they were all confused and afraid.

The four of them were originally Tribulation Cultivators who had never met each other. After building their foundations, each of them occupied a different area. Because their cultivation levels and magical powers were similar, they became brothers after coming into contact with each other.

During this beast tide in southern Xinjiang, the four led their respective families to the border of the Tang Dynasty. They originally wanted to settle down as righteous cultivators and not go back to their old ways. However, they did not expect that so many cultivators would gather here and there would be chaos. The four looked for opportunities several times to rob a lot of spirit stones and spiritual objects, and it was time for them to reap the sweetness.

"Brother, the abbot of Chixin Temple has a strong background, and even the Gushen Cult doesn't care about him. No one knows what kind of magic weapons and talismans he has. We can't do this business, the risk is too great!" Taoist Bishui spoke first.

"Yes, Brother Xuanyin, everyone wants to earn spirit stones, but to earn spirit stones, you also need to have the life to spend them,"

The four discussed for a while, and all felt that the risk was too great, so they could only reluctantly return to their respective families, seemingly giving up on causing trouble for Chixinguan Lucheng.

But there was fire in the eyes of each of the four people who flew back.

Less than three days passed and the four of them gathered together again by contacting each other through talismans.

When Xuanyin, Chiming, Qingyang and Bishui met again, they looked at each other and understood what the other was thinking.

"I've been dreaming about that Taoist temple every day these past few days. I wonder how free and easy it would be if the four of us brothers had such a Taoist temple to support our practice!" Xuanyin Taoist was the eldest of the four and spoke first.

"Yes, with such a manor, we will no longer do robbery cultivation in the future. We will practice Taoism cleanly in the future. When we are busy, we will teach and practice. When we are free, we will call a few friends to make tea, play chess, appreciate the garden, and taste fish together. This is the way to cultivate immortality."

"I want to cultivate like this, to live like this, even if it takes a year or two, I'd accept death!"

"...Then let's do this. We are cheap cultivators, so we can occupy the Taoist temple and do charity and devote ourselves to Taoism. We can also open a school to accumulate merits. If we fail, it's just paying off the debt several decades in advance."

Xuanyin Daoren slammed the table and made everyone determined that this would be the last business trip of the four brothers' lives!
After discussion, the four Taoists went home to gather their men. They didn't believe that the four of them, together with the help of the Qi-cultivating monks from their families, could not take down a Foundation Establishment monk.

Three days later, Chixin Temple.

On the Five Elements Platform, the young Taoist was cultivating his magic power. Lu Cheng had just completed building his foundation, and with his solid foundation, it was the time to consolidate his Taoism and improve his magic power. Although it wasn't much, he could feel his own progress every day of practice.

In particular, the top-grade third-order five-element formation was arranged in the Chixin Temple, which gathered the five elements of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, making Lu Cheng's practice more effective.

"suck."

As Lu Cheng closed his eyes and swallowed, five colored lights of green, red, white, yellow and black condensed out from thin air between heaven and earth, were swallowed into his stomach, and returned to his five internal organs.

The five elements of spiritual energy in nature then circulate and transform through the heart, liver, kidneys, lungs, and spleen, making it completely part of one's own magical power cultivation, making the five elements of magic power more refined and profound.

Moreover, as the qi of the five internal organs circulates, one's own body is also tempered.

At this moment, Lu Cheng suddenly felt something in his heart. He opened his eyes and saw a ray of blood suddenly appear in the distance. It entered his eyes and instantly dyed them blood red.

"murderous look!?"

Lu Cheng's expression changed slightly. He closed his eyes and practiced his skills. He only felt a blood-colored electric current entering his eyes and circulating in his body. In the end, it also returned to his body and even increased his magic power.

The Taoist practiced the Five Organs Strengthening Heart Method and felt that the five energies in his body were circulating smoothly without any hindrance or disharmony. However, he just couldn't find the bloody energy.

"Humph, the Blood Nerve is indeed worthy of being the supreme magic formula of the devil. I just couldn't resist the temptation and read two pages of the remaining chapters, and this change occurred to me."

Lu Cheng smiled slightly, feeling emotional.

The murderous aura just now was emitted by the four people who came to visit earlier. Lu Cheng had expected this and did not care.

However, they were determined to kill others in their hearts, and even though they were at a very long distance, their blood nerves could sense the murderous aura and rushed to the east.

This kind of mysterious changes in magic skills really make people who practice Taoism feel scalp numb. It is too powerful, which is also the reason why the blood nerve can lead countless cultivators into the magic path. As long as you practice it, all the obstacles and difficulties encountered by cultivators on the road seem to be solved.

However, the Blood God Technique was so magical that it also aroused Lu Cheng's sword heart: The more powerful you are, the more I want to cut you apart bit by bit, so that I can take advantage of your sharpness without being controlled by you.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng stood up from the altar to greet those evil guests who came from afar, but in comparison, they were nothing.

Deep night.

Xuanyin, Chiming, Qingyang and Bishui, with their respective family elites, sneaked into the Chixin Temple.

Everything has been going very smoothly so far, which is normal. To be on the safe side, the four of them even used several third-level breath-concealing talismans to hide everyone's aura, which can be said to be extremely cautious.

This magnificent Chixin Temple also made the eyes of the monks from the four families who followed them shine. As long as they killed the abbot of Chixin Temple tonight, this place would belong to them.

When everyone hid their bodies and came to the courtyard, a light suddenly lit up, illuminating their figures.

A young Taoist was cooking wine in the courtyard. At this moment, the wine in the small stove was emitting a faint aroma, but for some reason, no one noticed it just now.

"Four Taoist friends, I wonder what important matter has brought you here so late at night?"

The young Taoist raised his glass and drank from it, which was mellow and sweet.

"Hahahaha, Chixin Temple occupies thousands of acres of fertile land, precious trees and fish ponds, but it doesn't even share them with other fellow Taoists. We are here today to kill you, this evil and greedy Taoist!"

"Look at my Xuanmen Golden Sword Talisman!"

When the Taoist priest Xuanyin saw that the matter had been exposed, he immediately stood up and pointed his finger at the attackers, while at the same time throwing out a precious talisman that emitted a pure white light.

Seeing this, Lu Cheng also whispered, "Draw it out!"

A sword light suddenly flew out from his sleeves and slashed towards Xuanyin.

The third-level talisman in the air changed and turned into nine dragon-shaped flames, rushing straight towards Lu Cheng's head.

It is the Nine Dragon Fire Talisman.

Soldiers never tire of deceit!

The Taoist priest Xuanyin said that it was the Xuanmen Golden Sword Talisman. If ordinary cultivators responded according to what he said, they would be immediately harmed.

However, Lu Cheng has a keen swordsmanship and is a master of swordsmanship. No matter what kind of spells you use, I can break them with just one sword.

The sword light of the Fiery Golden Sword pierced into the Nine Dragon Flame Talisman, and under the burning of the raging fire, the golden sword light was indeed shrinking smaller and smaller.

But the sword light was getting brighter and brighter.

Fierce fire can temper real gold. The golden sword light followed a mysterious trajectory and crossed the Nine Dragon Flame. The spell was directly shattered, and the sword light became even hotter and sharper.

Xuanyin Taoist had sweat on his forehead and he raised a heavy third-grade medium-quality iron shield magic weapon to block in front of him. He didn't know why he was so nervous. The moment he fought with the Taoist in front of him, it was as if there was a sharp sword above his head against his eyebrows. He couldn't help but feel nervous and afraid.

Clang.

The flaming golden sword slashed, cutting into the iron shield an inch and bouncing away. Under the impact of the huge sword force, the Xuanyin woman only felt a sweetness in her throat.

"What's going on? That flying sword is a top-grade third-level sword? It's impossible for it to break my black iron shield with just one sword!" Xuan Yin had no idea that Lu Cheng's practice of the Meridian-breaking Sword Qi focused on condensing Qi into a sword. The deeper the magic power, the sharper the sword Qi. With Lu Cheng's current five elements magic power, the pure sword Qi condensed is no less powerful than a third-level flying sword.

If the Blazing Golden Light Sword was not only a second-grade upper-grade flying sword, his black iron shield would have been broken at this moment. Even he himself would have been beheaded.

"What are you standing there for? Why don't you do something?"

Xuanyin Taoist's magic weapon was damaged, and she shouted loudly in fear.

His brothers and clansmen have also been practicing Tribulation for a long time. On normal days, everyone would have taken action together, but today, for some reason, everyone seemed to be slow to act and dared not take action.

Chi Ming, Qing Yang and Bi Shui reacted upon hearing what was said, and each of them took out their own magic weapons and talismans to attack the master of Chi Xin Temple.

Chi Ming sacrificed a flying sword, Qing Yang sacrificed two spirit rings, and Bi Shui sacrificed a black gourd, which spurted out a stream of poisonous water.

Three attacks landed.

boom.

The stone table where Lu Cheng was originally standing was smashed to pieces. But the Taoist had disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, the light of the Fiery Golden Sword split into two, and a pure sword light fell from it, along with Lu Cheng holding the Chunjun Sword.

The Five Elements Escape Technique, Jinlan Escape Technique, is not used to escape into metal, but after performing it, the person and the sword light can be combined, reducing the load and further speeding up the flying speed of the sword light. However, when encountering an attack, the sword must still be swung to block it, which is not the unique kendo skill of combining man and sword.

Man and sword are one, man and sword light are integrated into one. If you cannot hurt the flying sword, you cannot hurt the cultivator in the state of man and sword unity. But to truly achieve this, it involves the mystery of the transformation of sword energy and physical body, and it requires the cultivator to at least reach the Golden Elixir True Person realm.

However, Lu Cheng still believed that he had reached the realm of unity between man and sword, because with a sword in his hand, no cultivator of the same realm could break the three-foot sword enclosure around him and really hurt him.

"over there!"

By the time Xuanyin, Chiming, Qingyang and Bishui reacted, Lu Cheng had already fallen into the group of Qi-cultivating monks, who were killing people with swords.

These forty monks from the Jie Xiu family who were holding formation flags were obviously trying to set up some kind of formation. However, in an instant, under the charge of Lu Cheng's sword light, more than ten of them were cut down one after another, and they collapsed and fled, and the formation was no longer formed!

Low-level cultivators who are unable to form a joint force are nothing but chickens and dogs in front of high-level cultivators, ready to be killed.

"Despicable, Master Chixin, you only attack the young ones!"

Taoist Chi Ming roared in anger when he saw the heavy casualties among his clan members.

"Well, I'll kill you then."

When the word "that" came out, the sound was still in the distance, and when the word "you" came out, the brilliant sword light was already close.

The sword light was flying beside the Taoist, and the five-colored light was flowing and changing. No matter what kind of spell or magic weapon it was facing, it could be transformed into the corresponding magical power to restrain it in an instant, breaking down the defense and killing the opponent.

"Die!"

As soon as Lu Cheng arrived in front of him, Taoist Chi Ming raised his hand and shot out two sky thunder beads and two fire thunder beads.

The power of these two third-level disposable magic weapons is not very strong among foundation-building cultivators, and is far inferior to fourth-level attack talismans. However, they do not require a large amount of mana consumption and can be activated instantly, making them still useful.

However, the Chunjun flying sword beside Lu Cheng turned into a yellow earth-type sword light and blocked it instantly. Boom boom boom boom, fire helps the earth, and thunder helps gold, which can also be regarded as being restrained by the earth-type sword energy.

Therefore, in the stunned eyes of all the Taoists present except Lu Cheng, the lightning and evil fire spreading from the Heavenly Thunder Seed and the Fire Thunder Pearl were even swallowed up by the earth-element sword energy bit by bit, and then the brilliance of the gold element suddenly slashed out from the earth element, and the earth gave birth to the gold element. A bright pure white sword light slashed out obliquely, and with just one sword, the Chi Ming Taoist who was activating the third-level defensive talisman was cut obliquely.

The next moment, the Taoist's figure appeared in the distance with the sword light.

Tonight, the first foundation-building cultivator, Chi Ming, was beheaded.

"It's already such a commotion here, but the entire Taoist temple has no reaction at all? There are no lights on anywhere. Either the people living in this Taoist temple are all deaf, or... he knew that we would come!"

Taoist Bishui, who was the most cunning among the four, was the first to notice this. The fear in his heart grew rapidly with the death of Taoist Chiming.

Under normal circumstances, he would not do this. However, Lu Cheng's terrifying murderous sword intent, which seemed to be non-existent, was actually constantly cutting the will of everyone present.

This is the way to spread the sword intent. It does not condense, but spreads and covers. Before building the foundation, Lu Cheng could not control his sword intent to this extent.

In addition, the sword's clarity also increased, making the entire battlefield seem like it was viewed in the palm of one's hand or as if looking down.

That's why, at this moment, Lu Cheng seemed to be in control of the entire battlefield. He didn't have a third-level magic weapon or flying sword in his hand. It would take time to condense the sword energy of the Broken Veins Sword Qi to be equivalent to the power of the third-level lower, middle, and upper flying swords, but Lu Cheng could fight hard when he was strong and avoid when he was weak. The feeling given to Xuanyin, Qingyang, Bishui and everyone else present was that the master of the Red Heart Temple in front of them showed an almost overwhelming strength from beginning to end.

"How is this possible? He is just a foundation-building cultivator at the same level as us!"

Although Xuanyin Daoren could be described as a fierce and stubborn man who had been through many battles in his life and killed countless people, he had only been practicing and hanging around in southern Xinjiang all his life. He had never seen any cultivators from top sects, and the only people he had seen were disciples of the Gushen Cult. He had only tried to curry favor with them and had never dared to fight with them!
Therefore, his vision was too narrow, and the power displayed by the young Taoist in front of him was beyond his understanding.

The true teachings of the twelve top sects are very powerful. Compared with the vast majority of cultivators in the world, they are overwhelmingly powerful.

At this moment, the descendants of the four families had already collapsed mentally. They were killed so badly that the pearl curtain was rolled back. They had forgotten that they were still cultivators.

Even if you use magical weapons or talismans, you will only kill your companions.

At this moment, Lu Cheng's main offensive was concentrated on Xuanyin, Qingyang and Bishui. Compared with Bishui's wandering eyes, Qingyang's expression gradually revealed an extremely frightened look. The ferocious Xuanyin Taoist held up a heavy black iron shield and controlled the flying sword to fight desperately with Lu Cheng.

The five colors of sword light flashed, blue, red, white, yellow and black. In the spiritual sense of Xuanyin, Qingyang and Bishui, their own spiritual sense could not lock onto Lu Cheng. The master of Chixin Temple could appear at any position at any time and attack with a sword.

This is a combination of the Five Elements Escape Technique and swordsmanship, which fully demonstrates the key to "sword fighting is to avoid the real and attack the fake. I can attack the enemy, but the enemy cannot attack me."

Finally, Taoist Qingyang's mind collapsed. He seemed to suddenly think of something and shouted hoarsely:
"I know, this is the Five Elements Sword Qi Heavenly Dao Foundation Building! I have seen in Taoist books: 'When the sword is swung, the five elements enter the sword, the heaven and earth change, and the mountains and rivers collapse!' How is it possible, how is it possible that someone can really practice such a Taoist sword technique!"

At this moment, he lost all his courage, and with a plop, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and said:
"Please spare my life, Master. If you can spare my life, I will never practice for the sake of disaster again and will do more good deeds in the future."

When Xuanyin Daoren heard these words from his sworn brother, his mind was shaken, so the next moment, he was cut by a sword energy at the waist, and fell to the ground with a thud, blood and intestines flowing, struggling to death for a while.

Taoist Bishui let out a sharp roar and turned into light and fled westwards.

Lu Cheng's body was immersed in sword light and he chased after them. As fewer and fewer people joined the battle, the sword intent became more and more condensed. A terrifying and murderous sword intent locked onto Taoist Bishui.

It was as if he felt like small swords were stabbing him all over his body. He tried to cast a spell, but made mistakes and was interrupted several times, and his magic power backfired.

The sword light passed by Qingyang Taoist, but nothing happened. He was overjoyed and rushed out of the Taoist temple. However, he felt his body lighten and heard the whistling of sword wind. Then the world started to spin. Then he saw a headless body in Taoist robes falling to the ground, with blood splattering all over the ground.

Plop, plop, the perspective kept flipping and changing, but it was because a head was rolling on the ground.

Under the lock of sword intent, the frightened Taoist Bishui was completely unable to cast any spells, so it wasn't long before Lu Cheng caught up with him and killed him with a sword in mid-air.

He was the only one who successfully escaped from the Taoist temple tonight, which made Lu Cheng slightly dissatisfied with his own fighting ability.

"You still don't have a good sword, otherwise how could such a person escape so far from me."

Shaking his head, the Taoist controlled the sword light and turned back.

The whole process sounds long, but in fact, when Lu Chengfei returned to the Taoist temple, he came to the stone table and picked up the wine pot to test it, and found that the wine was not yet warm:

Yes, even the scene where the three Taoists joined forces to break the stone table was an illusion evolved from the divine power. Lu Cheng didn't want to destroy his own yard, so he used some thunder and fire divine power in violation of the rules, and did not use any other power.
