Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 686: Three Ancient Swords and Revenge

At the top of Daoshi Mountain, it was the end of the Si hour. The scene should have been illuminated by a golden glow, but as she finished speaking, the glow dimmed, as if it had lost its Taoist charm.

Thousands of monks were silent, each with different thoughts in their minds.

Some couldn't believe it, some felt sorry for Yaoguang, and some were stunned and shocked...

Most people would not have thought that Yaoguang, a Yuanying Taoist from the Immortal Hidden Cave Heaven, would stop here and had not even met Tao Xianxu and Li Jianyi.

And they didn't expect that this Beiyuan cultivator had so many cards up his sleeve.

When he first arrived, he used water magic to defeat Zhao Tianhe, a Taoist priest of Piaomiao Taoist Temple, and then used thunder magic that touched the origin of the Tao to defeat Wu Yunshan of Danyang Wu family.

It was not until this time, when the water magic was fully exerted, that they discovered that this person's water magic rhyme was already enough to be compared with Tao Xianxu's Yin and Yang Dao.

More importantly, given his nature of hiding his cards layer by layer, how could they dare to conclude that his current strength was at its full potential?

"If he still has a trump card, then who among the remaining eleven people in Central Continent can stop him..."

Thinking of this, the eyes of thousands of monks flashed, and each looked at the target in their hearts.

One of the three top spots has already been taken by Donghai, so the title of Daozi's battle cannot be taken by anyone else...

Tao Xianxu's expression was equally solemn. Although he was confident that he could defeat Yaoguang, he couldn't quite see through Chen Mu.

Just as everyone thought, with this person's personality, there's no guarantee he won't have another hidden trick up his sleeve...

Li Jianyi's expression was calm, his eyes were cold and lonely, and he even seemed eager to try.

He followed the path of the Killing Sword. This time, he came to compete for the championship, firstly to restore his master's reputation, and secondly to test his sword skills against the world's most talented people. The stronger the opponent, the more excited he became...

"The winner is Beiyuan Chen Mu."

Master Han Yuan spoke at the right time, breaking the silent atmosphere.

Hua Meimei also reacted at this time, and used her magic power to cheer loudly, attracting the attention of many people.

But he didn't take it seriously, instead he bowed smugly.

After Chen Mu thanked the True Lord, he and Yaoguang stepped down from the stage. Looking around, he saw Jiang Zhengchu staring at him with a gloomy face.

Perhaps Jiang Zhengchu noticed Chen Mu's gaze turning towards him, his eyes flashed, and he neither dodged nor avoided.

Chen Mu sneered silently, then flicked his sleeves and returned to the queue.

Dudu and the others didn't notice the brief eye contact between Chen Mu and Jiang Zhengchu, and they were still shocked.

Yang Cheng exclaimed in admiration, "I knew Brother Chen was incredibly powerful, but I never imagined he would reach this level."

On the other hand, Taoist Tianxing was so excited that he couldn't stop laughing and couldn't speak.

Chen Mu waved his hand, responded with a few words, and then looked towards the platform with a few others.

The swordfight continued, and those who were determined to advance to the next round would not waste the opportunity to observe their opponent's tactics...

The second match is between Xian Jianchi's Li Jianyi and Shangjing's Qin Daozi.

There was a huge gap between the two in terms of strength and reputation, so the outcome of this battle was not surprising.

After fighting for only a quarter of an hour, Qin Daozi was defeated, and even a deep sword mark was left on his natal infant.

That was one of Li Jianyi's killer moves. If it weren't for the timely protection of Master Han Yuan, Qin Daozi's life would have been in danger...

As for the remaining matches, they were Tao Xianxu vs. Chu Mu, Dudu vs. Yang Cheng, Hua Meimei vs. Pingyuan Sect Taoist, Jiang Zhengchu vs. Lianhua Sect Taoist... and in these four matches, one side was overwhelmingly powerful, and the results were extremely fast, which could be described as a crushing victory.

Among them, the Taoist from Pingyuan Sect, who was favored by Chen Mu, did cause a lot of trouble to Hua Meimei at first, but with the use of "Three Heads and Six Arms", the ghost-raising technique of Pingyuan Sect was no longer effective, so he was quickly defeated.

Even so, the Pingyuan Sect, with its unique tradition, impressed thousands of cultivators, thus achieving its goal...

Only in the last match, Wei Mingde faced Kong Yerong, the battle was extremely fierce and the two were evenly matched.

Before the fight, although Kong Yerong attracted a lot of attention because of his easy victory in the previous game, he was naturally far inferior to Wei Mingde.

After all, the latter has long been famous, while the former is just beginning to show his potential.

But what everyone did not expect was that Kong Yerong gradually gained the upper hand...

On the high platform, Wei Mingde circulated the law of heaven and earth, and the energy and blood in his body were like smoke rising up into the sky. The magnificent force was like the backflow of lakes and seas, and the strong wind around his body continued, making him look like a god in the world!

He is different from Wei Chu. Wei Chu's dragon and elephant roared together, while he reached the extreme in the "elephant". Every attack of his was earth-shaking and shocking.

It can be said that thousands of tricks and methods can be broken with just one punch!
But because of this, his ability to capture was no match for Kong Yerong, and he was always pulled away by Kong Yerong at the critical moment, causing all his previous efforts to be wasted and gradually falling into a passive situation.

On the other hand, Kong Yerong was surrounded by three simple and unique ancient swords. The righteous energy on the swords twisted the void, making it impossible for people to look directly at them.

There are three ancient swords, one is the color of red jade, one is the color of green millet, and one is the color of gold. They are full of spiritual energy and rich in Taoist charm.

He stared at Wei Mingde below, seemingly talking to himself or to him.

“I have no intention of pursuing the path of immortality. I only wish to study for my entire life, to thoroughly understand the meaning of the scriptures and to preserve my soul.

My father was perplexed by this and scolded me for being unlearned and incompetent, for only reading the classics of corrupted Confucianism and abandoning the path of cultivating immortality. He even said I was unworthy of being a descendant of Confucius...

But I'm also puzzled. Didn't the Kong family's ancestors establish their family based on Confucian classics? Why did they relegate Confucianism to the lower class after entering this world of immortal cultivation?

My father never had an answer, and I didn’t want to ask, so I just studied for seventy years…”

Having said this, Kong Yerong paused, then his eyes flickered as he continued to mutter, "But who would have thought that my father, who had always been the pillar of the family, would die in a dispute with Long Xiangshan. When he passed away, I was still studying and was unable to see him for the last time.

However, because Longxiang Mountain was powerful and my Kong family was weak, the matter of my father's death was left unresolved.

This is the biggest regret in my life...

I hate that I don’t have any magical powers and cannot avenge my father. I hate that I have read the scriptures for seventy years in vain. I know the truth in my heart but I am powerless to change the situation!

But fortunately, I am not dead yet, and there is still a chance for everything to change..."

He suddenly raised his eyes, looked at the three ancient swords beside him, and said in a cold voice: "Today, I will unsheathe my swords to avenge my father!"

"Yan Ruyu, kill this man!"

He pointed his finger, and with a buzzing sound, the ancient red jade sword turned into a red line and rushed straight towards Wei Mingde, who had a body of a hundred feet tall.

The red line is like a beauty. Kong Yerong is not a sword cultivator, and he does not cultivate the sharpness of the ancient sword, but points directly to the soul!

Yan Ruyu outlines the space between heaven and earth, like a beauty dressing herself up, the meaning is so sad that it makes everyone feel heartbroken.

Although Wei Mingde was at a disadvantage, his momentum did not diminish, but became even more powerful. Seeing this, he laughed loudly and immediately punched out.

"I am just a rough man, but I don't understand your scholarly spirit!"
