Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 423 There are bad guys in the Sword Pavilion!

Jiangnan's Jianmen Pass stretches across the land.

As the name suggests, this place and Jitian Cliff are located at opposite ends of the world. One rises straight into the sky, reaching the azure cliff, while the other penetrates deep into the earth's crust, forming a Yin Sha Abyss.

However, precisely because of this, this place is also an excellent place for cultivation. Living deep in this place, forging swords with the fire of the earth's evil spirits and with the evil demons, is almost equivalent to fighting day and night. If you fail, you will die. Therefore, without foundation building, you cannot withstand the evil fire and evil demons, and you do not even have the qualifications to enter this place.

As for the deepest part of Guandi Abyss, it was once the training ground of the Sword Pavilion True Monarch, just like the top of Jitian Cliff.

After the True Lords went into seclusion, just as the Demon-Slaying True Man was stationed at the Sky-Piercing Cliff, the Piercing Abyss also gained a new master, namely the Evil-Repelling True Man of the Sword Pavilion.

"Boom!"

At this moment, within the Abyss of the Earth, billowing evil fire gathered, and the fire generated thunder. The interplay of fire and thunder illuminated the dark Abyss as if it were daytime.

Loud explosions echoed continuously.

After a long while, a figure in green robes finally emerged from the raging thunder and fire, his sharply defined face filled with solemnity.

He was not dressed in any luxurious attire, nor did he possess any magical treasures. Only by observing him with one's divine sense could one see the soaring sword intent emanating from him, which was faintly resonating with the power of the Piercing Earth Abyss. At first glance, it seemed as if the person standing there was not a human, but a precious sword forged by flowing fire.

"Amitabha."

Just then, a melodious Buddhist chant suddenly rang out from within the malevolent flames, followed by a burst of Buddhist light that dispelled the evil spirits, and a novice monk named Shixiu emerged.

Guangming Buddhist Disciple!

This was still not his true form, and was far inferior to his avatar overseas; it was merely a manifestation of his thoughts, which smiled at True Person Quexie at this moment:
"Congratulations, Benefactor Quexie, your sword intent has advanced further."

"Not enough."

Faced with the praise from the Buddhist disciple Guangming, Master Quexie shook his head: "My [Sword Intent] has never been perfected. How did he manage to do it?"

Guangming Buddhist disciple knew in his heart that "he" referred to the Demon-Slaying True Man. There were countless sword cultivators in the Sword Pavilion throughout the ages, but only the Demon-Slaying True Man added the words "non-killing" before his own "sword intent." Only those who knew the intricacies of the sword path could understand how exaggerated this was.

"The fundamental principles of swordsmanship were established by the founder himself."

"Afterwards, under the supervision of the [Gangxing Preaching True Lord], this method of refining the soul and mind to the extreme was named [Sword Intent], and its name was established."

Don't underestimate the power of a mere title.

In fact, this is also a symbol, and it came from a Grand True Monarch in the late stage of Golden Core, which made the name "Sword Intent" carry the weight of Mount Tai.

Otherwise, if there is sword intent, why are there no other intents in the world?

Blade intent, spear intent, arrow intent—they differ only in the weapons used; their essence is the same. However, since the term "sword intent" was established...

Other artistic conceptions then disappear.

From then on, all the insights that sword cultivators of all generations had gained in this path were forever confined to the framework of "sword intent," like chess pieces on a chessboard, only able to move around within the board and unable to become true players. In the end, they would only contribute to the formation of "sword path status."

Unfortunately, the Demon-Slaying Master was an exception.

Although he did not break free from the framework of "Sword Intent", he innovated and transformed it into "Sword Intent of Non-Killing", truly forging his own path.

Otherwise, why would he be valued by the Sword Pavilion?
“Don’t worry, benefactor.”

Upon seeing this, the Buddhist monk Guangming chuckled and said, "This humble monk has come to congratulate you, benefactor, and to relieve you of a long-standing worry."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Master Quexie raised his eyebrows slightly, then calculated with his fingers and immediately understood the cause and effect: "Yun Qingchuan actually succeeded in returning?"

Yun Qingchuan, the patriarch of the Yun family.

Previously, he had received guidance from the Buddhist disciple Guangming, who instructed him to go to the secret realm of alchemy to find the innate true man Mu Changsheng, so as to obtain the method of separating consciousness.

The next second, Guangming Buddhist disciple casually waved his hand, and a newborn baby appeared in his palm. The baby was enveloped in spiritual light, and although it was still an infant, it showed signs of great age and hardship. It was none other than the Yun family patriarch whose prenatal secrets had been revealed. "Greetings, Master."

The Yun family patriarch looked expectant, then extracted his divine sense and transformed it into a Daoist book, which he presented to the Evil-Repelling Immortal: "I have not failed in my mission."

"well done."

Master Quexie calmly accepted it, but did not rush to look at it. Instead, he looked at Buddhist disciple Guangming and said, "Master, you know that this is not what I seek."

Now that the Demon-Slaying Master is stationed in Jiangnan, even the true form of the Buddha Guangming dares not enter. Yet, he secretly meets with him. Is it merely for a method of separating consciousness? What he desires is the Buddha Guangming's "Buddhist affinity"! Since the White Wax Gold route is blocked, he intends to use this to seize an opportunity to obtain gold!

Just like Wu Tai'an, the Prince of Zhennan of the Daoist court.

Therefore, since their first meeting, he has hinted to Guangming Buddha more than once that he was willing to become the disciple he had chosen in Jiangnan.

However, the Buddhist disciple Guangming pretended not to know anything.

This time was no different. Meeting the gaze of the True Man Quexie, the Buddhist disciple Guangming put his hands together and said, "The karmic connection with the Buddha is already predetermined. Benefactor, you should not force it."

'Are you kidding me? You think you're worthy?'

A good-for-nothing who cultivates [White Wax Gold] but whose path was cut off by [Angxiao] because of Chen Earth, wants to be my disciple? That's just wishful thinking!

".That's all."

Master Quexie sighed, clearly understanding how dire his current situation was, and then focused his attention on the consciousness stripping technique before him.

"This item is not in a hurry to be used."

"If the master is willing to help, I would like to compete again."

After speaking, Master Quexie suddenly raised his head, his gaze piercing through the many obstacles and landing on the Jitian Cliff, but he dared not look at the figure on the cliff top.

'Demon Slayer, how many more days can you suppress this?'

As both were at the peak of Foundation Establishment, Master Quexie could also see Master Dangmo's current fortune. In his view, Master Dangmo would seek gold in the next few days.

This matter is beyond his control.

The method of separating consciousness is only an alternative.

After all, doing so would mean completely giving up this great opportunity to make money, so how could he be willing to do so unless he was desperate?
'Moreover, I still have a chance at achieving a certain level in swordsmanship!'

'With my sword intent, I could achieve great things if I were to become a sword cultivator again! As long as the Demon Slayer is willing to sacrifice himself to prove it, he must prove it!'

Seeing the change in the expression of the True Man Quexie, the Buddhist disciple Guangming chanted a Buddhist prayer.

At this point, he didn't need to say anything more.

Human desires are like a boulder rolling down a mountain; once they start, they can never be stopped. All it takes is a gentle push, and then you can sit back and wait for the show to begin.

Extreme Sky Cliff.

Lu Yang manipulated his sword avatar to leave the ancestral hall, and naturally, he had a complete grasp of the plans of the Yun family patriarch, the Buddhist disciple Guangming, and the True Man Quexie.

'So that's how it is!'

'It wasn't just Angxiao's scheme; it was also Guangming Buddhist disciple's machinations. They colluded with the True Immortals within the Sword Pavilion to attack the Demon-Slaying True Immortal!'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang immediately mounted his escape light and flew towards the top of Jitian Cliff, to the secluded cultivation place of the Demon-Slaying Immortal.

Master! I want to report this!
There are bad guys in Jian Ge!
