Chapter 678: Sadness and Desolation



The spring water is cool, the spring water is clear, and the spring water is endless.

This was the first time that Yin Jiuli had encountered such a skilled swordsman since he had achieved success in his cultivation. The Five Elements Wuji Sword in Gao Xian's hand turned into a pool of spring water, with clear sword light, cool sword energy, and endless sword intent.

She was trapped by the Chunshui sword light. The sword light without a trace of sharpness was dense and cold, like mercury pouring on the ground, constantly penetrating and soaking into her from all directions.

Gao Xian clearly had a fifth-grade supreme divine sword in his hand, but he did not use its unparalleled sharpness to break her. Instead, he relied on the subtle and gentle changes of Chun Shui to subdue her.

This is equivalent to a commander of a large army besieging one person. Even though he is sure to win, the commander still insists on fighting the enemy himself.

In Yin Jiuli's opinion, Gao Xian was a little too confident to give up his greatest advantage. This also turned the battle into a swordsmanship contest.

Fighting is about using all possible means to win, while sword fighting is about exchanging ideas and discussing techniques.

Although the Jiuzhou Dharma Assembly was a place to discuss the Dao and compare the Dharma, who would dare not go all out in such an important meeting? Gao Xian's move gave her the opportunity to win the battle.

The two swords in Yin Jiuli's hands, one yin and one yang, transformed into a perfect Tai Chi, forming a world of its own. Just like a stone in a pool of spring water, no matter how the spring water soaks it, I remain unchanged.

This is also because Yin Jiuli's swordsmanship is superb, enough to fight against Gao Xian.

Gao Xian was very happy. After so long, he finally met a fellow swordsman with whom he could learn swordsmanship. Yin Jiuli's Yin Yang Sword was at a very high level, higher than the Wuji Tianxiang Sword Scripture he practiced.

After all, it is the Taiji Sword Palace's thousand-year-old inheritance, and it is said to be a peerless sword art that can enable one to control the sword and become an immortal.

It was a pity that Yin Jiuli's cultivation was not enough, and his attainments in Yin Yang Sword were not very high. According to Gao Xian, Yin Jiuli was just at the entry level in this sword technique.

That's it. Yin Jiuli, relying on the Yin-Yang swords in his hands and the harmony of his swordsmanship, was able to fight in swordsmanship.

There was no anger in the sword fight between the two men. Each side responded by changing their sword techniques, more like playing chess. The sword lights of both sides intertwined and changed, and the figures of the two sides flying the swords were almost invisible.

This battle between sword cultivators also attracted the attention of many sword cultivators, including several Dao Masters, who were actually mostly focused on the battle with Gao Xian.

When Gao Xian took out the Five Elements Wuji Sword, several Dao Masters knew that this man's swordsmanship must have reached the highest level of Nascent Soul to be able to control the magic sword in his hand with ease.

Seeing that Gao Xian did not rely on the sharpness of the magic sword but relied entirely on the changes in his sword skills to fight the enemy, several Taoist masters looked at Gao Xian with even higher regard.

It is not difficult to defeat Yin Jiuli with a fifth-grade top-grade divine sword, but the difficulty increases tenfold to subdue Yin Jiuli with swordsmanship.

Yin Jiuli is the real sword cultivator, and he has an extraordinary talent in this sword technique. Gao Xian is very confident. He is also at the level of a pure sword cultivator.

Compared to the ever-changing swordsmanship of Zhizhen and Ye Tianxiu, the swordsmanship duel between Gao Xian and Yin Jiuli was more subtle and delicate, and every move was very particular.

This is like a game between two national players. Game is about wisdom and skill, while strength becomes the least important factor.

Tai Ning and Qing Le were not sword practitioners, and they were puzzled to see Gao Xian and Yin Jiuli fighting so fiercely, even to the point of a stalemate.

Based on their understanding of Gao Xian, his fighting style is the most concise and direct. Whenever he fights with someone, the battle is resolved quickly. In their opinion, Gao Xian's cultivation is obviously better than Yin Jiuli's, but he is entangled with this woman. Is this intentional?

Tai Ning's delicate little face showed a bit more annoyance. Senior brother must have fallen in love with Yin Jiuli, which was why he was unwilling to kill him. This guy was really lustful!

The problem is that Yin Jiuli is not as good-looking as her, and she doesn't have her virgin body. Yin Jiuli is not interesting to look at, so Senior Brother is just looking for something new?! Qingle also thinks Gao Xian has some problems. She turns her eyes and sees that Tai Ning's face is not very good, and she finds it a little funny.

She deliberately asked in surprise: "With Senior Brother's peerless magical powers, it's not easy to deal with Yin Jiuli, why haven't you taken down this girl yet?"

Tai Ning snorted lightly and said unhappily: "You know my senior brother's personality. He is the most compassionate to women..."

Qingle and Gaoxian had an unclear relationship, so it was hard to respond to this question. She was a little angry with herself. Why did she tell such a boring joke and get herself involved?

Most people actually couldn't understand the fight between Gao Xian and Yin Jiuli. Even if they were Yuanying sword cultivators, they couldn't understand the general situation because their sword skills were not advanced enough. As for the more subtle changes in the game, they couldn't understand it at all.

The nine Dao Masters all noticed that in this battle Gao Xian was gradually adapting to the changes of the Yin-Yang Sword and gradually understanding its essence.

Even if this understanding is very superficial, it is enough to prove that Gao Xian's talent in swordsmanship is better than Yin Jiuli's. The key is that Gao Xian's Great Five Elements Kung Fu is the unity of the inside and the outside, and he has even cultivated the Great Five Elements Divine Light.

Wuji Jianzun said to Xuanyang Daozun, "I heard that your disciple is known as an expert in both magic and swordsmanship. It's true."

Among the nine Dao Masters, only Wuji Dao Master is a true swordsman. She has sharp eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and handsome features. She looks like a heroic woman in her thirties. She is also the youngest among the nine Dao Masters.

Her narrow and long phoenix eyes were full of sharp light, just like the light of a magic sword. This also made her not have the slightest trace of the old age of an old cultivator.

Xuanyang Daozun was already in his forties, older than Wuji Jianzun. He had a good relationship with Wuji Jianzun, and when he heard Wuji Jianzun's praise, he smiled and said, "This kid's swordsmanship is pretty good. If you have any flaws, you might as well give me some pointers..."

Wuji Jianzun was a little surprised. At their level, they would not easily give instructions to their disciples. Xuanyang Daozun had a good relationship with her, but not close enough for her to help him teach his disciples.

However, Taoist Xuanyang would not ask for help easily.

The world is changing, and the Nine Continents are about to be in chaos. If Gao Xian is really a promising talent, it is not impossible to teach him swordsmanship. One more strong man can preserve the vitality of the human race.

Wuji Jianzun really admired Gao Xian's talent in swordsmanship. As far as she knew, Gao Xian did not have a master to inherit swordsmanship.

The current swordsmanship is clearly the way of the Tianxiang Sword in ancient times, but with some subtle changes. In addition, thanks to Gao Xian's attainments in the Great Five Elements Secret Method, his swordsmanship already has a deep foundation in the changes of the Five Elements.

It should be Gao Xian who advanced his swordsmanship to this level on his own.

In her opinion, Gao Xian's swordsmanship was crude and simple, but it was self-contained and perfect. In terms of the realm of swordsmanship, he was indeed two levels stronger than Yin Jiuli. Even the most authentic swordsmanship would find it difficult to defeat Gao Xian.

This shows this person's talent in kendo, and also his determination and perseverance in pursuing kendo.

I am afraid that Gao Xian does not distinguish between humans and demons, and is only interested in himself. If he really cultivates peerless swordsmanship, it will be even more dangerous.

Wuji Jianzun did not refuse, nor did he agree. Xuanyang Daozun understood Wuji Jianzun's meaning. He needed to think about it and might also need to test Gao Xian.

For cultivators, the most important thing is the inheritance of secret techniques. Even for Dao Zun, there is no reason to pass on techniques easily.

Xuanyang Daozun was just taking the opportunity to try it out. If it worked, that would be great. If it didn't, that would be fine. If Wuji Jianzun really wanted to teach Gaoxian swordsmanship, he would owe him a big favor.

Even he was not sure whether Gao Xian was worth such investment!

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

This matter is easy to handle. If Gao Xianzhen can win the first place in the law debate and help him win the bet, he will have the money to indulge himself.

If he fails to get first place, he will lose everything and will have no energy to cultivate Gao Xian.

In the Baxuan Palace, Gao Xian had roughly seen through Yin Jiuli's sword skills. His transformation from the two yin and yang to Tai Chi allowed Yin Jiuli to isolate the inside and the outside and create his own world.

He used the Rain Sword to fuse with the Mysterious Dark Divine Light to create the Spring Water Sword, but he was always unable to break through Yin Jiuli's sword light.

Of course, if one really exerts strength, one sword can break it, but that will not help hone one's sword skills.

Gao Xian also learned a little about the essence of Yin and Yang from his sparring with Yin Jiuli. His swordsmanship was all about practical training, that is, moving forward step by step, with footprints for each step, without relying on sudden enlightenment.

The Five Elements Wuji Sword was a fusion of the Positive and Negative Five Elements Hunyuan Sutra and his own swordsmanship, and it did not come out of thin air. However, this fusion did not achieve a substantial breakthrough, and his swordsmanship remained at the Grandmaster Perfection realm of the Wuji Tianxiang Sword.

Gao Xian understood that the heavenly signs were the manifestation of the five elements, and that positive and negative were the changes of yin and yang. But he only understood that, and he had not yet figured out the specific relationship between yin and yang and the positive and negative five elements.

After seeing Yin Jiuli's interpretation of yin and yang, Gao Xian had a reference and understood how the positive and negative five elements could be integrated into swordsmanship.

The clear sword light suddenly rippled like a pool of spring water, and circles of ripples continued to expand. Every ripple was the invasion of sword light.

Yin Jiuli was shocked to find something was wrong. Gao Xian's Spring Water Sword was waving lightly, but there was an unpredictable change. She turned her two swords continuously, using the force of yin and yang to resist the rippling sword light.

The rippling sword lights kept dispersing and flying during the collision, and turned into misty sword lights in the air like smoke and fog.

The sword light seemed gentle but it was chilling to the bone. Yin Jiuli felt that the two swords in his hands were becoming increasingly sluggish, and he had unknowingly been soaked in the cold and gloomy sword intent.

It was too late for Yin Jiuli to realize that something was wrong. The misty sword light had already pierced through the Yin-Yang swords.

She felt a chill between her eyebrows, and the ethereal and cold sword intent penetrated her soul, making her feel the depth and coldness of death in an instant.

Gao Xian put away his sword and retreated, and bowed to Yin Jiuli who was still standing: "Fellow Daoist, I appreciate your giving way."

A needle-sized scar of bright red sword slowly appeared between Yin Jiuli's eyebrows. Just as her soul was about to be slashed by the sword, the surrounding spiritual light suddenly brightened...

When Yin Jiuli regained consciousness, she had already returned to the main hall. In front of her were the nine Dao Masters.

Yin Jiuli's eyes quickly cleared up, but she was killed by Gao Xian's sword, which was as ethereal as smoke. This greatly shook her firm determination to fight with the sword.

This person obviously saw through the Yin-Yang changes in her swordsmanship, and broke her Yin-Yang sword with the indescribable changes in sword intent. He didn't deliberately use force, nor did he borrow the sharpness of the magic sword.

She lost this battle completely.

Yin Jiuli felt sad, and the light in her eyes was dim, unable to hide her depression. She forced herself to remain calm and saluted several Dao masters before returning to the side of the sect's cultivators.

The two Dao Lords of the Taiji Sword Palace could only sigh inwardly when they saw Yin Jiuli like this. This defeat had a huge impact on Yin Jiuli, and it was likely to severely dampen her sword spirit.

This sword genius might even stop here...

Many cultivators who were watching the battle felt pity for Yin Jiuli when they saw him looking so sad. On the other hand, they were also impressed by Gao Xian's last sword move.

The cold mist and rain, like smoke and fog, drifts in the air and soaks into people's bones, hurting their hearts and minds... It is truly magical! (End of this chapter)
