A Branch for a Sword: Facing the Purple-Green Patriarch!

"That was a brilliant move."

"The Swordsmanship is fierce, yet it is not domineering at all. It hides a murderous intent, making it impossible to defend against. It is truly wonderful."

"To be able to witness the patriarch's Swordsmanship firsthand, I would have no regrets even if I were to die."

"As expected of my Purple Azure Founder, just from this scene, I instantly felt that my Swordsmanship, which I have painstakingly cultivated for thirty years, is simply not worth mentioning."

"I understand!"

"What have you realized?"

"It cannot be spoken, it cannot be spoken; once you understand, you understand."

One by one, the Purple Azure Disciple spoke, each boasting more and more than the last, but in reality, none of them could understand it. Even some elders of the Purple Azure Holy Land, watching from a distance, could only sense the fierce sword intent of the two founders, Zizhen and Qingcheng, but could not truly comprehend its profound meaning.

However, Lu Changsheng could clearly sense the subtleties of the two Swordsmanship.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng entered a state of complete absorption, memorizing every move and stance of the two.

One hour later.

Lu Changsheng raised his hand, and in an instant, a Sword Qi filled his palm.

The Sword Qi was terrifying, and then Sword Qi kept changing.

"Hiss! Senior Brother Lu, you actually mastered our sect's strongest Swordsmanship just by watching our patriarch practice?"

The next moment, the Purple Azure Holy Land was stunned.

As the Purple Azure Holy Son, although his swordsmanship talent was not as good as Lu Changsheng's, he could still see at a glance what mysteries were hidden in the Sword Qi in Lu Changsheng's palm.

This is the Myriad Manifestations Sword Qi.

Sword Qi energy transforms into myriad forms; a single sword strike enacts the Myriad Manifestations Sword Art in the heavens.

This sword Swordsmanship is the foundation of the Purple Azure Holy Land. It took him twenty years to learn a part of it. However, he mistakenly believed that Lu Changsheng had comprehended the Purple and Green Swordsmanship by watching the patriarch's swordplay.

How could he not be shocked?

What's terrifying is that Lu Changsheng not only grasped the superficial aspects, but also its essence.

Because the Sword Qi in Lu Changsheng's palm is constantly changing, and each change is a different sword technique.

Moreover, every sword technique is terrifying, with countless variations, truly terrifying.

But soon, another hour passed.

As the sword duel between Daoist Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng reached its most intense moment.

Suddenly.

Lu Changsheng got up.

Yes, he got up.

However, there were no unusual phenomena or special lights; apart from his undeniable handsomeness, there was no other light.

He came to a tree, slowly picked a branch, and then looked at the two phantom figures in the sky Sword Comprehension Cliff.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Changsheng flew away with his sword.

This scene caused a sensation throughout the entire Purple Azure Holy Land.

"He wants to challenge the founder to a sword duel?"

"Although Senior Brother Changsheng is strong and has proven the path of the Sword Immortal, our two ancestors had already become immortals back then, and their swordsmanship was superb. Even if they were not at their peak, they were not far off. Isn't this a bit reckless?"

"Hiss! Senior Brother Changsheng, this is too brutal!"

"Indeed, if Heaven had not given birth to Lu Changsheng, the path of swordsmanship would have been shrouded in eternal darkness. This saying is absolutely true."

People were amazed. They couldn't even understand the Swordsmanship of Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng, but Lu Changsheng not only understood them, but also went to fight against them.

That's incredible!

"Although Senior Brother Changsheng is exceptionally skilled in swordsmanship, exceptionally talented, and rumored to have reached the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, what does it mean to be holding a tree branch? Even if you are strong, does that mean you have to be so disrespectful to our Holy Land's ancestor?"

However, dissenting voices have also emerged.

But the next moment, the voice of the Purple Azure Holy Son rang out.

"Fool!" the Purple Azure Holy Son coldly cursed, then looked at the disciple and said, "What kind of arrogant person is Senior Brother Lu? This is the second stage of my Purple-Green Swordsmanship, 'All Things are Swords.' Senior Brother Lu merely watched the two patriarchs spar and comprehended the first Swordsmanship my Purple-Green Swordsmanship, the Myriad Manifestations Sword Art. Moreover, he Mahayana in just one hour. In the following hour, Senior Brother Lu comprehended the second level, 'All Things are Swords.' He used tree branches as swords, and all things in heaven and earth as swords, testing swords with swords, wanting to comprehend the third level. What do you know? Stop spouting nonsense here! Go and reflect on your mistakes for three months!"

The Purple Azure Holy Son was unusually angry. The latter was a True Disciple with a very high status, but he did not dare to talk back to the Purple Azure Holy Son. He obediently left the place and went to meditate in seclusion, while also appearing very remorseful.

Clang!

However, at this very moment...

Lu Changsheng unleashed a sword strike, his Swordsmanship terrifying and overwhelming, his aura as powerful as mountains and rivers, like an emperor descending to earth.

This sword strike unleashed a hundred-foot- Sword Qi, colliding with the Purple Azure Twin Swords and unleashing a terrifying aftershock of Sword Qi.

Many disciples staggered back dozens of steps, and some disciples with insufficient cultivation even spat out a mouthful of blood.

No one expected that Lu Changsheng could unleash such terrifying Sword Qi with just a tree branch.

"The Heavenly Emperor Descending Sword!"

Some people exclaimed in surprise, recognizing at a glance what kind of sword technique Lu Changsheng was using.

However, the next moment, Lu Changsheng released another sword Sword Qi.

Boom!

The Sword Qi, like a thunderclap, exploded in everyone's ears.

"Divine Thunder Sword Art?"

Some exclaimed in disbelief, "These are all extremely powerful sword techniques, each one capable of making one a master swordsman!"

Buzz buzz buzz!

Buzz buzz buzz!

At this moment Daoist Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng turned their gazes toward Lu Changsheng. Although they were not his true form or Primordial Spirit avatar, but merely phantoms formed by sword intent, they also sensed Lu Changsheng's Supreme Sword Intent at the same time.

Without a word, the two joined forces and attacked Lu Changsheng.

Their swordsmanship was extraordinary, the most refined Swordsmanship in the world, with every move and every stance containing overwhelming divine power.

Zi Zhen and Qing Cheng were the strongest swordsmen in the world 30,000 years ago.

It could be said that if the two of them had deduced the complete version of the Number One Sword Art in the World back then, they might have already attained the supreme sword path.

They had even taken half a step each.

The overwhelming Sword Qi engulfed everything. The entire Sword Comprehension Cliff was filled with sword light, and the terrifying Sword Qi made everyone in the Purple Azure Holy Land feel uncomfortable.

Amidst the Sword Sea, Lu Changsheng, clad in Azure Cloud Qilin Robe, unleashed a torrent of Sword Qi from the tree branch in his hand.

This is a battle between unparalleled swordsmen.

Almost everyone in the Purple Azure Holy Land was paying close attention to this duel.

"Great Sun Vajra Sword!"

"Five Elements Reincarnation Sword!"

"Azure Sea Azure Sky Sword!"

"The Myriad Stars Sword!"

Lu Changsheng unleashed a series of Swordsmanship.

The Sword Qi was extraordinary, and also extremely fierce.

However, it must be said that Daoist Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng are too strong, to an outrageous degree.

Lu Changsheng's sword transformed into ten thousand swords. In the blink of an eye, he could unleash hundreds of different powerful Sword Qi with a wave of his hand. However, even so, Daoist Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng could easily dismantle the sword Sword Qi.

Furthermore, one's Swordsmanship was fierce, while the other's Swordsmanship was continuous.

Lu Changsheng was completely overwhelmed and unable to resist.

Moreover, this is just an illusion, an illusion formed by the sword intent.

If the real person were to come.

Lu Changsheng was simply no match for him.

However, under this frenzied suppression...

Lu Changsheng was not discouraged at all; on the contrary, he benefited greatly from Lu Changsheng.

Theory is always just theory; real combat is the only way to test one's strength.

Lu Changsheng unleashed his full power, employing various Swordsmanship to engage the two in fierce combat.

As time goes by little by little.

Lu Changsheng's understanding of swordsmanship is becoming stronger and more terrifying. Every breath he takes brings about earth-shattering changes.

If we say that Lu Changsheng previously only possessed unparalleled sword intent but had no swordsmanship experience...

At this moment, Lu Changsheng has already entered the realm of a master in terms of swordsmanship experience.

That's talent!

A single battle can provide a huge boost.

However, in this duel, Lu Changsheng was completely overwhelmed.

Even now, he is overwhelmed by the pressure from the two of them.

Despite his rapid progress, it's hard to change the fact that he can't defeat the two.

They are too strong, but Lu Changsheng is confident of victory!

All that's lacking is time.

However, the entire Purple Azure Holy Land remained completely silent.

Everyone was speechless with shock.

Using a tree branch as a sword, he fought against the two patriarchs, Zi and Qing. Although he was at a disadvantage, he did not lose and persisted for several hours. This perfectly demonstrated the style of Peerless Sword Immortal.

The Purple Azure Holy Son was at a loss for words.

He felt that if he were to take the stage, he would probably be defeated in a single encounter, let alone last an hour.

Lu Changsheng is indeed strong.

That's ridiculously strong.

The Purple Azure Holy Son took a deep breath; he finally understood what his master had said that day.

At this moment, the Purple Azure Holy Son's heart was extremely complicated. It was not envy, jealousy, or hatred, but an indescribable strangeness.

He remained silent, simply watching Lu Changsheng.

However, an hour later, at this very moment, suddenly, Lu Changsheng retreated several hundred meters, staring at the two figures.

He appeared very calm as he watched Zizhen and the other person.

The latter also stopped fighting, as if it had a spirit, but in reality, it was only because Lu Changsheng had restrained his sword intent that the two of them did not make a move.

Lu Changsheng's behavior aroused everyone's curiosity.

Some even thought that Lu Changsheng had admitted defeat and was planning to end it.

However, the next moment.

Lu Changsheng slowly loosened his grip on the branch.

Then he slowly began to speak.

"I implore you two seniors to show no mercy and end this battle with the final strike."

A sound rang out.

The Purple Azure Holy Land, with its 100,000 disciples, was instantly in an uproar.

No one expected that Lu Changsheng would dare to say such a thing.

And most importantly.

Lu Changsheng actually dropped the branch he was holding.

Everything can be a sword; even a tree branch is still a sword in any case.

What was the meaning behind Lu Changsheng throwing down the tree branch?

Should I fight the two founders bare-handed?

The crowd was puzzled.

At this moment, even the Purple Azure Holy Son was puzzled.

But the next moment.

Daoist Zi Zhen and Daoist Qing Cheng raised their immortal swords.

Then two Sword Qi, each ten thousand feet long, appeared.

This is their strongest Swordsmanship.

It's more than a hundred times more terrifying than before.

However, at this moment, Lu Changsheng closed his eyes.

Boom!

The purple and green Sword Qi was invincible, and the two phantom figures, devoid of any emotion, directly attacked Lu Changsheng.

Everyone was on edge, their eyes wide as they stared intently at Lu Changsheng.

In their eyes.

Lu Changsheng's actions were tantamount to courting death.

But just as the Sword Qi was about to strike...

Suddenly.

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes.

An even more terrifying Sword Qi emerged.

"The Great River Sword Comes From Heaven!"

"One Sword Across the Sky Suppresses the World!"

"The Pinnacle of Swordsmanship!"

"Unrivaled in the world!"

"As long as I live, there will be heaven!!"

"Kill!"

A loud voice rang out.

The next moment, the Azure Sky was torn apart!

A terrifying Sword Qi appeared.

Lu Changsheng has completely deduced the second half of the Number One Sword Art in the World.

The third level: Myriad Swords Return to One!

The fourth level: The Sword in the Heart!

Taking the Purple Azure Holy Land as the starting point.

A terrifying surge of Sword Qi.

Sweeping across millions of miles!

At this moment, the world changed drastically!

Everyone on the Purple Azure Holy Land was dumbfounded.

Even the Purple Azure Holy Lord, who had been studying the sword manual, was awakened.
