Chapter 235: Chapter 156: Alluring Su Youwan
~~~~~~~~~
“Bujue of the Ten Thousand Buddha Palace has come to ask for a lesson from Miss Bai Lu.”
A bald, smiling monk stepped onto Bai Lu’s martial stage.
Bai Lu rose slowly, but did not draw her sword.
“I’ve long heard that this generation of the Ten Thousand Buddha Palace has its two prodigies, Buchi and Bujue. You’re a monk. Instead of securing your own spot or helping your Buddha’s Son, what are you doing here with me?”
This man was also in the Fifth Realm! Besides the Buddha’s Son, the Ten Thousand Buddha Palace actually had another young cultivator of the Fifth Realm in this generation.
‘With his strength, he could have easily secured a spot. Why is he here causing trouble for the Daoist Sect?’
Bujue smiled. “This humble monk certainly cannot defeat Miss Bai Lu; no one here can. It’s just that the world has yet to witness Miss Bai Lu’s methods, and this humble monk would like to give it a try.”
“So you want to be the vanguard for your Buddha’s Son. Fine.”
‘The goal of the Ten Thousand Buddha Palace’s people was too clear: Lu Changyuan’s sword.’
And to take Lu Changyuan’s sword, the Daoist Sect’s strongest member, Bai Lu, was naturally the greatest obstacle.
But ever since Bai Lu began her Cultivation, she had never fought outside her sect’s gates. No one knew what Dao she cultivated. Therefore, the Ten Thousand Buddha Palace had sent a man second only to the Buddha’s Son, Buchi, to probe her depths.
Bai Lu said nonchalantly, “You think you can beat me just by watching? And even if you beat me, do you think you can beat the Miao Yu Palace Chief over there?”
“Amitabha. One must always try.”
“Then try.”
A golden light appeared in Bujue’s hand. The Ten Thousand Buddha Palace’s Great Compassion and Great Mercy Palm broke through the air, pressing down with immense force.
Bai Lu snorted lightly.
“Decree!”
Several Talismans had somehow appeared on Bujue’s Great Compassion and Great Mercy Palm, and then they exploded violently.
“The Talisman Dao?”
Bai Lu didn’t answer.
She didn’t cultivate the Talisman Dao, but the Magic Sword Dao.
Unlike the common Sword Dao, this path required the simultaneous cultivation of the sword and Talismans. When the Dao was perfected, it was terrifyingly powerful.
Thirty-six Yellow Paper Talismans materialized out of thin air, forming an Array that appeared at Bujue’s feet.
Bai Lu stated lightly, “Halt.”
Bujue found that he could no longer move his body.
‘This is bad.’
‘The most terrifying aspect of the Magic Sword Dao is that it combines high damage with control. Bai Lu has clearly mastered its essence.’
Bujue hastily brought his palms together. A brilliant golden light erupted from his body, forming a massive Golden Bell that covered him completely.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Palace’s Golden Bell Shield!
“Before I came, the Jiayi Sect Master taught me a sword technique. I’ll use you as practice. I hear the Chang’an Sect Master was also quite fond of using it back in the day.”
The sword was drawn.
It was still daytime, but the sun in the sky seemed to fall, blinding all who watched.
Sword Qi surged.
A Sword from the West!
~~~~~~~~~~~
Qiu Yuehan found Bai Lu’s sword strike rather interesting.
‘Bai Lu’s A Sword from the West is almost at fifty percent of my own level.’
The wind lifted the strands of the Black Skirt Fairy’s hair. Against the breeze, it was as black as fine raven feathers, accentuating the tranquility around her.
She was thinking.
‘I’ll have to find a time to force Lu Changyuan to teach me, personally, how to use Taiyi.’
‘Compared to A Sword from the West, the Four Seasons Sword Technique is the Chang’an Daoist’s true sword.’
This Swordsmanship has different strengths in different seasons. Furthermore, the four swords can be merged in pairs, becoming the Pure Yang Sword and the Supreme Yin Sword, which symbolize the Yin and Yang.
At the level of the Pure Yang Sword and Supreme Yin Sword, an outrageously powerful bonus appears.
Pure Yang during the day, Supreme Yin at night.
And that’s not all.
When Pure Yang and Supreme Yin merge again, they become Lu Changyuan’s Heaven-Cutting technique, Taiyi.
With Qiu Yuehan’s talent, and the fact that she had already… merged with Lu Changyuan—one could say she had touched every part of him—even so, she still hadn’t grasped how to use Taiyi. This just showed how absurdly profound the technique was.
‘How did the Daoist Sect Master learn it?’
Qiu Yuehan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
‘How did I only think of this today? I have to go back and ask Lu Changyuan.’
A voice carried on the wind.
“Bu Lingfeng of the Qingshi Sect has come for a lesson.”
Someone now stood before Qiu Yuehan. It was a pale young man, holding a calligraphy brush and a yellowed scroll.
