Chapter 544: Sword Technique, Sword’s Will, Sword’s Path

A sword attack from an expert who was half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm had almost torn the world apart.

Everyone could see that a terrifying sword qi around thousands of meters long had been sliced down. It was as if a falling mountain was about to tear the world apart.

Boom!

A loud roar sounded, setting off a shocking frenzy. Suddenly, Heaven and Earth boiled like boiling water.

This one attack had caused the sky and the ground to crack.

“Did he block it?”

Someone muttered to themselves, as he was not able to see what had happened. However, the terrifying sword qi did not fall on WuTang Mountain.

After the frenzy dispersed, everyone only saw Lu Xuan standing in the sky. That terrifying sword attack had not been able to break Lu Xuan.

The Shield of Great Aether on Lu Xuan’s body broke, but that was all it did!

The pupils in Dan Chenzi’s eyes slightly contracted. He had not held back when pulling off that sword attack just now. However, he was not able to even injure Lu Xuan. This was too shocking.

“Dan Chenzi, if I can’t kill Yan Han today, I will kill you instead!”

Lu Xuan looked at Dan Chenzi and coldly said, “You’ve got a lot of nerve. Whether or not you can kill me will depend on whether or not you have the ability to do so!”

As Dan Chenzi looked at Lu Xuan and roared, the blue sword instantly in his hand emitted a shocking sword light.

Bang!

The sword directly tore out a terrifying sound of an explosion. Suddenly, the world trembled violently.

At that moment, people only saw the qi and blood on Lu Xuan’s body slowly rising.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As Lu Xuan’s qi and blood continued to rise, and everyone seemed to be able to see a long river flowing within his body with a terrifying force.

The force on his body continued rising to its limits, which was extremely terrifying.

Lu Xuan’s force soon climbed to its peak. He was not afraid of the sword attack that had just been slashed down. As he grabbed towards the air, the Dragonslayer appeared in his hand. It stirred the wind as it slashed out a shocking sword light that seemed to be tearing the world apart as it collided with the other blue sword light.

Bang!

The sound of gold and iron colliding rang out. As sparks suddenly began flying everywhere, the terrifying shock wave seemed like it would crush the entire world. All of WuTang Mountain slightly trembled.

Many people felt that the sonic boom created from the explosion had shattered their eardrums.

The two sides were clashing with one another head-on. The sword skills that the two men demonstrated were horrifying.

They had a terrifying comprehension of the sword’s path.

Each of the beams of sword light emitted from Dan Chenzi packed unimaginable power. The blue sword light coming from each attack looked as if it had chopped out great waves all over the sky to create a typhoon.

Dan Chenzi’s sword style was a large-scale attack; he had fully comprehended the sword’s will of this sword technique.

In contrast, Lu Xuan had shown a different sword style. His style focused more on technique, which people had never seen Lu Xuan do.

When Lu Xuan had wiped out the strong enemies in the past, he had essentially killed them all with a single strike. Even if he had failed to kill them in one shot, just like the current Dan Chenzi, he would have made a large-scale attack and crushed the strong enemy with absolute strength.

Now, things were different; Lu Xuan was displaying his amazing strength using his sword techniques.

He had casually slashed out a sword light with his sword technique, which had a powerful and unconstrained effect. The amazing power that it contained made it seem unstoppable.

In the face of the beams of sword light being constantly slashed out by Dan Chenzi, Lu Xuan’s attack was like a boat in the endless waves.

It seems like it may be destroyed at any time, but it had been firmly stuck onto the surface of the sea. Even stormy waves were incapable of destroying it.

“This is too amazing! Who knew that just a simple sword technique can actually contain such power!”

Many people could not help but suck in a cold breath.

Many people believed that sword skills were also divided into different levels. The first thing to practice was the sword technique, then the sword’s will. According to legends, there was even a higher level known as the sword’s path.

In everyone’s eyes, those who only practiced the sword technique were considered to be nothing even if they mastered it.

In the face of absolute strength, even their invincible sword technique was useless when the opponent can use absolute strength to defeat it. Even if one had extremely exquisite sword technique, they had no chances of winning.

Dan Chenzi’s sword skills were already at the second level: the sword’s will. If it had been the crowd facing against him, they would not have been able to resist the attacks.

This was because no matter how exquisite their sword techniques were, there was no way to stop the sword attacks that contained a sword’s will.

It could have been said that this was reaching the stage of simplification, turning all the complex sword techniques into the most basic sword techniques. Then, each of the techniques would contain a sword’s will that possessed unimaginable power.

The next step was imprinting one’s own sword’s will into the void and triggering the law of the world. That was the realm of the sword’s path.

However, no cultivators were currently at this level, not even in the Blessed Enclave. Such an existence was like a myth and a legend.

Right now, Lu Xuan had only used the simple sword technique and integrated it with the sword qi, which had been able to repeatedly break the sword qi attacks containing a sword’s will. This feat itself was very extraordinary.

Those who had fully practiced their sword techniques had unimaginable power. The so-called skill was close to a path, with the sword technique achieving close to the effect of a sword’s path.

It was very shocking.

Dan Chenzi said in disbelief, “How is this possible? You don’t even have a sword’s will, so how can you break mine?”

If his sword technique was so strong, why would he give up practicing sword techniques in favor of honing the sword’s will?

“God, you’re stupid!”

Lu Xuan sneered and said, “Sword technique, sword’s will, and sword’s path are linked together. It’s impossible to practice the sword’s will or the sword’s path without first establishing the foundation of the sword technique. Who told you that one is more superior than the other?”

Lu Xuan continued, “The sword technique is just a means to undertake the sword’s will and the sword’s path! With your position being extremely low, you’re nothing more than a novice!”

Dan Chenzi’s face flushed upon hearing what Lu Xuan said. He was a famous master of the sword’s path in the Blessed Enclave. When had he ever been this humiliated?

He had been called a beginner in the sword’s path that he prided himself so heavily on.

Even so, he had no way to refute it. Lu Xuan had already defeated him with an exquisite sword technique, proving that it was anything but useless.

To be able to have absolute strength, he had to have such ability. Obviously, his strength did not give him much of an advantage against Lu Xuan.

At that moment, the force on Lu Xuan’s body became more terrifying. Lu Xuan’s qi and blood boiled like boiling water as they swept up.

It then soared into the sky!
