Swordholder

Clang!

The Heavenly Sword drew upon the golden radiance of the enormous sun behind Chen Yuan, which fell upon its blade. In an instant, the sword hummed and trembled, its entire body enveloped in a layer of blazing golden light, its sharpness as unstoppable as the rising sun.

"cut!"

Chen Yuan shouted and swung the Tianzheng Sword in his hand, slashing it down fiercely at Qin Wudao!

With a whoosh, the sword fell, a wisp of blazing sword intent tearing through the black curtain, slicing down layer by layer! Wherever it passed, demons screamed in terror, melting away like ice and snow upon encountering this golden sword energy!

When the sword was about to strike Qin Wudao, Qin Wudao felt his scalp tingle. He roared and hurriedly moved his body away!

But a wisp of golden sword energy still grazed his arm and fell, directly severing one of his arms and sending it flying!

At the severed arm, golden sword energy continued to spread, scorching hot, rapidly dissolving the black energy emanating from his arm.

"what!"

Qin Wudao screamed in agony, his face contorted in pain. He immediately activated the bronze candlestick, spewing out green flames to block the remaining golden sword energy.

"This is the first move of the Heavenly Light Demon-Slaying Technique, Blazing Dawn Slash!"

Zhong Yue, who was lying on the ground, struggled to lift his head, his eyes wide open, looking at the scene with shock.

"This draws upon the power of sunlight, making the sword's momentum blazing and fierce, like the light of dawn breaking new life."

Zhong Yue muttered to himself, then suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "The Blazing Dawn Slash really did injure him! That truly is the nemesis of evil spirits and strange creatures!"

Wang Hu, Gu Chen, and Li Taiyi became excited upon hearing his words.

"Look, he's using his second move! My God, look at the radiant light filling the night sky, and the cold, white moonlight—that must be the legendary...Moonlight Serenity Slash!"

As Zhong Yue's voice fell, Wang Hu, Li Taiyi, and the others suddenly looked at Chen Yuan again, their breaths catching in their throats.

Even Zhu Xin was the same. With her slender body and soft waist, she leaned weakly against a rock, staring in astonishment at the young figure in the void, her beautiful eyes rippling with surprise.

Chen Yuan, who was in the void, once again wielded the Heavenly Righteous Sword. Then, the blazing sun behind him gradually faded, and in the blink of an eye, a cold moon rose from the void!

This is not a blood moon, but the bright white moon that originally belonged to the world.

At that moment, the bright moon hung in the sky, and the silvery moonlight fell, making the Tianzheng Sword in Chen Yuan's hand shine brightly, instantly bursting out with a terrifying and astonishing silver sword light!

"Slay again!!"

Chen Yuan shouted again, and the silver-white sword in his hand slashed fiercely at Qin Wudao once more.

With a clang, this move unleashed an endless torrent of moonlight, entwining and refusing to dissipate. Countless demons and ghosts were struck by the sword's light, their demonic, deathly, and ghostly auras instantly stripped away by the power of the moonlight!

Wherever the clear light reached, the evil spirits felt a piercing pain, their surfaces cracked rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they were torn to pieces.

Some powerful evil spirits, though not shattered by the sword light, were as if cleansed by the moonlight, making it difficult for them to gather their malevolent energy again!

Even Qin Wudao was no exception; under the cold moonlight sword intent, he couldn't muster any will to resist!

puff!

This sword cleaved his body diagonally in two!

"what!"

Qin Wudao screamed in agony as his body exploded into countless pieces of flesh!

With only its head remaining, it flew away into the distance, fleeing for its life!

"Where do you think you're going? Another strike!!"

Chen Yuan shouted again, his voice echoing through the night sky!

Immediately afterwards, he raised his sword high again, instantly attracting the power of starlight from all over the sky!

Boom!

As soon as he drew his sword, the moon behind him slowly rose into the sky. Then, behind Chen Yuan or in the void above his head, it instantly transformed into a boundless galaxy. The galaxy was dazzling, and strands of starlight fell down like thousands of waves. Some landed on Chen Yuan's Heavenly Righteous Sword, and some landed elsewhere. All the evil spirits and demons had nowhere to hide and were all cut down.

boom!

Chen Yuan's sword strike was imbued with a vast and powerful starlight sword aura, capable of slaying demons and destroying evil spirits!

He then unleashed a sword strike, instantly creating a howling wind, as if a galaxy were hanging upside down. Countless stars moved with his sword, weaving a net that stretched across the sky!

"What?"

Qin Wudao's head and face, which had been sent flying, were immediately filled with utter horror.

Looking up, he saw countless stars, and he couldn't escape the area covered by starlight at all.

Rumble!

As the terrifying sword strike descended, endless starlight exploded, like meteors falling to earth, its power boundless. Wherever it passed, all demons and evil were slain, and the world fell silent!

Qin Wudao's head couldn't escape either; it was instantly cleaved in two, and the wisp of ghost inside screamed in agony before vanishing into nothingness!

Even all the divine treasures he had previously unleashed were reduced to nothingness under the Star River Shattering Demon Slash.

Clang!

The Heavenly Righteous Sword in Chen Yuan's hand rang out violently, followed by the appearance of fine cracks that spread!

Soon, with a bang, his Heavenly Righteous Sword shattered.

Chen Yuan stared at the shattered Tianzheng Sword, his pupils narrowing.

He is now at the second stage of the Purple Mansion realm, and the magical power he unleashes is terrifying and powerful.

The Heavenly Righteous Sword, a magical treasure of the Yellow Court, could not withstand the power he unleashed and shattered.

"What a pity about the sword my aunt gave me."

Chen Yuan murmured to himself, "Next, I need to find a good longsword."

As the Heavenly Righteous Sword in Chen Yuan's hand shattered, the starlight and sword energy filling the sky gradually dissipated, leaving only a clear sky in the world. All the ghostly and demonic energy in front of him vanished without a trace.

Zhong Yue and the others looked up in shock, greedily absorbing the air in the void.

"My God, this feeling of clarity and tranquility can only be found in legends."

"It should be said that it only existed three thousand years ago."

"Is this what it feels like to be free of turbid spiritual energy? This is wonderful, I love this void."

Zhong Yue, Li Taiyi, and the others felt the refreshing coolness of the world around them, their faces filled with excitement and longing.

But in the blink of an eye, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and a blood moon hung high in the sky. Strands of red moonlight enveloped the earth, making the previously clear and cold air in the world instantly become turbid.

Zhong Yue and the others' expressions changed, and they looked distressed once again.

At the same time, Chen Yuan in the void immediately scanned his surroundings and bowed deeply.

"Junior Chen Yuan, thank you for your guidance, senior. I will always remember this kindness!"

Chen Yuan paused, then spoke again, his tone sincere, "May I ask who you are, senior? Would you please come out and meet me? So that I may know who my benefactor is and how I can repay you."

After he finished speaking, the world remained deathly silent, without any response.

At this moment, all the spiritual energy storms at the location of the Three Lights Spiritual Spring below were once again completely swallowed up. Li Wei and Nuomi flew into the air and came to Chen Yuan's side, looking at him with surprise, and then looked around.

"A-Yuan, what's going on? Where's this 'senior'?"

Li Wei asked, his face full of doubt.

Even Zhu Xin, Zhu Yue, and the others on the ground looked at him with surprise.

He immediately scanned his surroundings to see who else was there, but found nothing except a bloodstain.

"A senior once guided me, which enabled me to reach the Great Perfection of the first level of the Heavenly Light Dao Technique."

Chen Yuan explained.

Li Wei suddenly realized, "No wonder, no wonder your Heavenly Light Demon-Slaying Technique suddenly became so powerful, it turns out it's reached its peak?"

Thinking of this, he immediately bowed respectfully to the surrounding void, "Junior Li Wei, thank you for your guidance to my brother Chen Yuan. Please come out and give us a chance to repay your kindness in person."

"Yes, yes, yes, please come out and meet us, senior! Little Nuomi also wants to repay your kindness!"

Little Nuomi nodded quickly, bowed respectfully, and spoke in a clear and melodious voice.

But Zhong Yue and the others on the ground looked terrified and frightened.

A powerful and mysterious figure instructed Chen Yuan in the Heavenly Light Dao Technique?

Isn't this mysterious person the Swordholder?

The sword wielders existing in the Purple Mansion...aren't they sword masters or sword wielders?

When Zhong Yue and the others thought of this, they all gasped in shock.
