"I understand. I won't use it unless it's a matter of life and death." Mu Hanyan said.
Even with a sword technique as powerful as Starfall, she could control her movements, and injuries at her hands wouldn't necessarily lead to death. However, the sword art she had just mastered was not only immensely powerful, but also contained a terrifying destructive force. Forget defeat at the hands of this sword; even if she wasn't strong enough, simply being hit could kill her.
The withered trees and flowers in the backyard are the best example. You must know that the power of heaven and earth in the Holy Court is rich and pure, and this is even more so in the Holy Sword Peak. These big trees are probably thousands or even tens of thousands of years old, and their vitality is extremely tenacious. The same is true for those exotic grasses, but they have all withered under the sword intent.
Besides, even if she didn't care about others, Mu Hanyan had to think about herself. They hadn't been fighting a real enemy just now, but that single strike had already drained her of energy. If it were a life-or-death fight, her cultivation level might have been severely damaged, causing her realm to decline.
It should not be used lightly unless it is absolutely necessary.
By the way, what should this sword be called?
Mu Hanyan thought about it and quickly made a decision, to let all living things be destroyed and all things disappear!
At this moment, Mu Hanyan had no idea that the name she had casually come up with for this sword art would bring her enemies an unforgettable nightmare in the near future, and what kind of legend it would become!
"I'll practice for a few more days, then go help Han Yutang heal his injuries," Mu Hanyan said to Ye Lanxun and the others. Having completely lost all his energy, even walking felt like his legs were filled with lead. Han Yutang's healing could only be put on hold for the time being.
"Right here?" Jian Wuchen pointed to the hole at the back of the room.
Mu Hanyan smiled bitterly. The room that originally had four walls only had three walls left. It was obviously impossible to practice in peace.
Fortunately, this room was built solidly, otherwise it would have collapsed into ruins long ago. Even more fortunately, she had chosen a room at the back of the courtyard for peace and quiet, otherwise, who knows how many people would have been harmed by this sword strike.
"Come to my place. The back mountain is quiet and not many people walk around. It won't be a problem even if you split half of the mountain." Jian Wuchen said jokingly.
Mu Hanyan's previous sword strike had left him with a lingering fear, and he was genuinely worried she might accidentally injure someone else. While his strength didn't currently scare him from that strike, if Mu Hanyan became even stronger, he might not be able to handle it, let alone others.
"Okay then." Mu Hanyan had no other choice.
Soon, they reached the back mountain. Mu Hanyan began to cultivate and recover her energy, while Jian Wuchen and Ye Lanxun protected her. After all, she had lost all her energy and was powerless to protect herself. They were also unsure if there were any accomplices of Bu Xuanji within the Holy Court, so they dared not be careless.
It took Mu Han three full days to finally open the door to the quiet room. In those three days, she had only recovered half her energy. She remembered the first time she used those five magical instruments to forcibly increase her strength, she had also lost all her energy, but it took only a day to recover. This made it easy to see how terrifying this destructive sword technique was.
"Hanyan, you're fine." Ye Yanran came forward happily. After the last lesson, she no longer dared to approach Mu Hanyan while she was practicing. She was really worried.
"It's almost done. Where are Huayue and the others? Are they still practicing?" Mu Hanyan looked around and didn't see Huayue and the others, so she asked.
"They haven't come back yet." Ye Yanran replied.
"He hasn't come back yet!" Mu Hanyan was shocked.
It took her almost three days to comprehend the sword art last time. In the blink of an eye, another three days had passed. Even if the Holy Court was thousands of miles away, they should have rushed back. Could something unexpected have happened?
"Lan Xun has already led people to look for him. Before he left, he asked me to tell you not to worry too much. With the strength of Hua Yue and others, and the protection of their sword pets, nothing will happen to them. Maybe they were accidentally teleported to another place for cultivation and trapped by restrictions, making it difficult for them to escape." Jian Wuchen said.
Mu Hanyan nodded. The Holy Court had more than one place for cultivation, and many of them were protected by forbidden barriers. If Hua Yue and the others were unlucky and were teleported in, it would not be easy to get out.
She also believed that with the strength of Huayue and the others, plus their sword pet, there shouldn't be any danger.
"Let's go to Shenlao Peak," Mu Hanyan said to Ye Yanran. Ye Lanxuan was taking care of Huayue and the others, so there was no need for her to worry. She should first fulfill her promise to Elder Ao.
This time, Ye Yanran didn't say much and followed Mu Hanyan excitedly. She had been guarding the back mountain for the past few days, but she didn't dare to get close to Mu Hanyan at all, which made her feel very suffocated.
"Why hasn't she come yet? Could it be that she broke her promise?" On Shenlao Peak, Ao Fangchen paced back and forth, looking into the distance from time to time, his face full of anxiety and worry.
"Master, can you please stop walking around like this? You're dazzling me." Han Yutang said weakly, lying on the table.
"You bastard, I'm so anxious just for you." Ao Fangchen slapped Han Yutang on the forehead.
After returning from the Holy Soul Illusion, he locked Han Yutang up in Shenlao Peak and disciplined him strictly. He almost wanted to tie him to his belt, and he would slap and scold him at every turn, no longer turning a blind eye and letting him go as he did in the past.
However, this made the relationship between the master and the disciple much closer than before.
"Master, Mu Hanyan might have just been talking, but you took it seriously." Han Yutang said, covering his forehead.
"You think everyone is like you. You still don't understand that Mu Hanyan is definitely not an ordinary person. How could she talk nonsense about such things?" Ao Fangchen glared at Han Yutang unhappily.
"But even you, old man, can't cure my injury. Can Mu Hanyan really cure it?" Han Yutang said doubtfully.
Although he no longer had the hostility he had before towards Mu Hanyan, he still had some doubts about her words. After all, his injuries were too severe. Not only were Jin Qisheng and other Holy Court doctors helpless, but even his master was powerless.
"Alas, you said you don't understand, and you really don't understand." Ao Fangchen shook his head and said earnestly, "In short, remember my words. Mu Hanyan's future is limitless. It's better to offend the Lord Saint than to offend Mu Hanyan. Just believe her words and don't have any doubts."
Ao Fangchen's face was solemn as he spoke of this. He had finally reconciled with Mu Hanyan, and he was worried that Han Yutang's ignorance would anger Mu Hanyan again. Only after the battle in the Holy Soul Illusionary Realm did he realize how terrifying Mu Hanyan was and how limitless her potential was.
