Chapter 258 Emei Sword Control Technique (Third Update)

If the Blood Demon of the Nether Spring was injured by Bai Mei using the Haotian Mirror, it was mostly a disguise and an act; in reality, the injury was not serious.

This time, being hit head-on by an atomic bomb explosion, their lives were truly hanging by a thread.

If it weren't for the power of the Blood Cave that offset most of the force, he would have been annihilated long ago.

"After I emerge from seclusion, you will all be dead!"

With her last ounce of strength, she completely sealed off the Blood Cave to prevent Bai Mei and the others from entering. Youquan then sank into the Blood Lake and began absorbing the power from the blood plasma to heal her injuries.

According to his original plan, he could have fully absorbed the power of the Blood Cave and emerged from seclusion in less than a year, thus destroying Emei and unifying the world.

He is now seriously injured, and the power of his blood acupoints has been greatly weakened. It will take him at least ten years to recover to his previous state.

All of this was caused by that little Core Formation cultivator whose name he didn't even know.

Even the unfathomable White Eyebrows was completely manipulated by him, yet in the end he was tricked by a mere Core Formation cultivator. One can only imagine what Youquan was feeling at that moment.

However, the joys and sorrows of cultivators are not the same. At this moment, Bai Mei, sensing the weakening power of the blood acupoint, immediately turned to Li Chuan and said:

"Li Qingfeng, your ancient treasure has weakened the power of the Blood Cave to the extreme. Right now, Youquan's strength is at its lowest point. Can you use teleportation to send me in?"

With his strength, if he could enter the Blood Cave now, even if the heavily injured Youquan used the power of the Blood Cave, he would not be a match for him.

Because of the short time, he guessed that Youquan had only initially mastered the Blood Cave, and that the power of the Blood Cave had been greatly weakened.

"Master, no, after the blood acupoint closes, it forms its own space with a binding force similar to an array. My teleportation technique cannot enter."

Li Chuan sensed it for a moment and then shook his head.

He didn't lie to Bai Mei. After the blood acupoint closed, it did indeed prevent him from using Phantom Shift to enter, just like it did back in the Nine Sons Profound Yin Heavenly Demon Formation.

Even if he could get in, he didn't want Bai Mei to go in now and kill You Quan, because keeping You Quan alive was more valuable than killing him.

Upon hearing Li Chuan's answer, Bai Mei showed a look of regret, but quickly cheered up.

"This attack will at least prevent Youquan from making any moves for ten years, buying us enough time. It's already a very good result."

If it weren't for the immense power of Li Chuan's ancient treasure, which severely injured Youquan and greatly weakened the power of the Blood Cave, allowing Youquan to fully merge with Chiyou's essence blood, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Li Chuan, their eyes filled with respect and admiration.

Undeterred by death, Li Chuan entered the Blood Cave, rescued Dan Chenzi and Xuan Tianzong, and severely injured Youquan, weakening the power of the Blood Cave. Although Li Chuan was only at the Core Formation Realm, in their eyes he was already no worse than Dan Chenzi and Xuan Tianzong, who were at the Earth Immortal Realm.

Many of the female disciples looked at Li Chuan with a special kind of affection in their eyes.

Dan Chenzi and Xuan Tianzong are indeed powerful, but they are seniors who have cultivated for four or five hundred years. In the eyes of many Shushan disciples, they are high and mighty elders.

Li Chuan, on the other hand, was in his early twenties. When he first came to Shu Mountain, he was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. He often chatted and talked with them, and they were at the same level.

Now that he has accomplished so many amazing things, it is easy for him to attract these female disciples of Mount Shu who have never even been in a relationship.

"Dan Chenzi, among the disciples of Shu Mountain, you have the highest cultivation and the strongest strength. Until I come up with a solution to the Nether Spring, I will need you to guard this place. If there is any unusual activity, act first and report later!"

After confirming that the problem of Youquan could not be solved for the time being, Master Bai Mei looked at Dan Chenzi.

Dan Chenzi immediately replied respectfully:

"Yes, Master. As the chief disciple of Emei, I will do my utmost to guard this place!"

Bai Mei nodded, then looked at Li Chuan:

"Li Qingfeng, I heard you've been working with Dan Chenzi on crafting magical artifacts and are quite interested in our Emei sword-controlling techniques. Let's stay here together, so Dan Chenzi can teach you the most authentic sword-controlling techniques of our Emei sect!"

"Thank you so much for your help!"

Li Chuan immediately cupped his hands in greeting, his tone a mixture of surprise and excitement.

He knew Bai Mei wouldn't be stingy; as long as he made a contribution, he would definitely reap the rewards. However, he hadn't expected Bai Mei to be willing to let Dan Chenzi teach him the authentic Emei Sword Control Technique.

Dan Chenzi's flying knife wings were a magical artifact he created himself. Passing on the refining method to Li Chuan was a private matter and nothing more.

However, the Emei Sword Control Technique is the foundation of Emei's strength, and normally, this kind of magic would never be taught to anyone other than disciples of the sect.

Even though righteous cultivators are mostly good at eliminating demons and protecting the righteous path, and there are basically no bad people among them, sectarianism is still a very important issue, just like for ordinary people.

Larger sects, in particular, place great importance on this issue.

That's why Li Chuan was so surprised when he heard Bai Mei's words.

"Very good, but Li Qingfeng, you must remember this: after you learn the Emei Sword Control Technique, you may not pass it on to anyone else without the permission of the Emei Sect Leader, not even your junior brothers and sisters from Xiaozhushan."

Finally, White Eyebrows added a sentence.

The transmission of the Emei Sword Control Technique to Li Chuan was naturally due to the enormous contributions Li Chuan had made, but it does not mean that Li Chuan can pass on the Emei Sword Control Technique to others.

Moreover, Li Chuan knows the Minor Teleportation Technique, so if there is any unusual movement in the blood acupoints, he can immediately teleport to Emei to report it.

"Qingfeng will remember this!"

Li Chuan nodded solemnly; this restriction was far too insignificant to him.

"Xuantian Sect, Tianlei Twin Swords, Yunzhong Seven Sons, and other disciples, come with me back to Emei to discuss the next steps."

After making arrangements for Dan Chenzi and Li Chuan, Bai Mei led the rest of the group back to Emei.

In the end, all that remained in Panluo Valley were Li Chuan, Dan Chenzi, and the almost completely closed entrance to the Blood Cave.

"Senior brother, it seems you'll be teaching me not only weapon crafting but also sword control techniques from now on!"

"Don't worry, junior brother. I will definitely not hold back and will make sure you learn the most authentic Emei sword control technique."

"That's good. I was worried that if you mastered the Flying Sword Wings, you wouldn't be able to use my Emei Sword Control Technique and unleash its full power."

Dan Chenzi said with a smile.

His Heavenly Dragon Slashing Flying Knife Wings are powerful, not only because of the ten thousand flying knives, but more importantly because they are combined with the Emei Sect's powerful sword control techniques to unleash such great power.

If the Emei Sword Control Technique is lost, the power of the Flying Knife Wings will be greatly reduced if only ordinary sword control methods are used, and it may even be impossible to control so many flying knives to attack smoothly.

And so, Li Chuan stayed in Panluo Valley with Dan Chenzi, where he began to forge small flying swords while learning authentic Emei sword-controlling techniques.
