Chapter 349
Chapter Title: Heavenly Realm
The Eight Demonic Sects’ Shadowless Sect.
As the Sword Demon’s sect, it was the foremost among demonic paths, and in my past lives, I had once been taught the Shadowless Sect’s true martial arts by the Sword Demon himself. That was why I recognized that the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Strike the Shadowless Sword Emperor had just executed bore an astonishing resemblance to the Shadowless Sect’s signature technique.
[In truth, this is two martial arts combined. Because it deploys Shadowless Swordsmanship and Soul-Seizing Swordsmanship simultaneously, it’s called the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Sword.]
[Your opponent merely perceives it as sword shadows, but in reality, the Soul-Seizing Swordsmanship is secretly unfolding, silently slitting their throat without a sound. That is the essence of the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Sword.]
Shadowless Soul-Seizing Swordsmanship!
It was the Shadowless Sect’s signature technique and the Sword Demon’s martial art. This swordsmanship unleashed two forms at once, with silent sword shadows targeting the opponent’s weaknesses. It concealed an exquisite subtlety uncharacteristic of unorthodox path techniques. Indeed, the Sword Demon had seized the throne of the unorthodox paths solely through mastery of the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Swordsmanship.
I had my suspicions during the clash with Yeo Dongbin, earlier, but the moment he used the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Strike, my convictions solidified. While the basic forms and overall flow differed from the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Sword, the flow emanating when executing the Shadowless Soul-Seizing Strike was strikingly similar. The name alone made it undeniable that they hailed from the same sect.
At that, the Shadowless Sword Emperor’s face briefly stiffened. He sent me a transmission.
