Lin Yuantu created the Seventy-Two Styles of the Bixie Swordplay, which was renowned in both the righteous and the wicked, from the slightly flawed Sunflower Manual recorded by the Mount Hua Sect.

The Seventy-Two Styles of Swordplay is actually quite ordinary; its only advantage is its unpredictable speed.

How can Lin Yuantu's talent compare to Dongfang Bubai's?

How could Lin Yuantu's basic swordsmanship possibly compete with Dongfang Bubai's?

When Dongfang Bubai used the Sunflower Manual to activate the swordsmanship he had honed through years of life-and-death battles, even the renowned swordsman Ji Boying was filled with admiration.

He only saw Dongfang Bubai casually use two sword moves, and his swordsmanship was slightly rusty, but he memorized them again.

He brandished his sword and charged towards Ji Boying.

His figure was elusive, like smoke or mist. He had only taken three or five steps when he was already wielding the long sword as if it were his own arm.

The longsword was wielded with lightning speed, yet it was strange and peculiar.

Seeing him attack with his sword, Ji Boying was unwilling to dodge.

He immediately unleashed his Five Directions Sword.

The two fought with lightning speed, sword to sword.

A wisp of pink mist and a wisp of purple mist intertwined in the flowerbed, making a series of crisp, tinkling sounds.

They fought from east to west, and from south to north.

Occasionally, flashes of sword light would appear.

Cut the white crane in two, and the mandarin ducks fall to their heads.

The wooden fences, waterside pavilions, walls, and trees were covered with sword marks!

Facing Dongfang Bubai's unpredictable and swift sword strikes, Ji Boying remained confident and filled with a sense of pride, determined to unleash his Five Directions Sword technique.

First, the majestic power of the Mount Song Sword was unleashed, suppressing the evil aura of the swift sword so that it could not raise its head.

Dongfang Bubai was surprised.

Despite facing immense pressure, the speed of the conversation allowed her to still have the energy to speak.

"You stole the Mount Song Swordplay? Good lad, the Mount Song Sect Leader should be someone from the Mount Hua Sect!"

Ji Boying chuckled softly.

"Is it the Mount Song Swordplay?"

They launched two more fierce attacks.

"Seemingly true but actually false! Very well, you can be the founder of the Songshan Sect!"

Although Dongfang Bubai praised him verbally, he showed no mercy in his actions, stabbing Ji Boying's vital points from various strange angles with his swift sword.

"Watch my swordsmanship once more!"

Ji Boying's swordplay transitions are smooth and fluid, transforming grandeur into a rustic simplicity.

His sword moves seemed unchanged, but they were always perfectly timed, blocking all of Dongfang Bubai's strange sword techniques.

The movements of his hands seemed to slow down.

But in the next instant, the sword light flickered, changing from extreme stillness to extreme movement.

Ever-changing and unpredictable.

The Three-Foot Green Edge turned into a hazy, indistinct mass.

Ji Boying and Dongfang Bubai were locked in a fierce battle.

It was like fencing, with sword tips pointing directly at sword tips!

Such a bizarrely fast sword with so many variations, yet it manages to bring the sword tips together every time—it's truly astonishing.

Dongfang Bubai felt increasingly strained.

My arms ached, my chest was tight and painful, and blood kept dripping from the corners of my mouth.

The makeup on her face had been washed away by sweat, leaving it patchy.

I had a very bad feeling about this.

Dongfang Bubai believed that since practicing the Sunflower Manual, he had gained insights into the profound meaning of life and his skills had greatly improved.

If I had a needle in my hand, even three or four of Ren Woxing back then wouldn't have been a match for me.

If I had a different sword, I could easily take on six or seven of them.

Now, his swift sword was no match for the swordsmanship of this young man from Mount Hua.

Who knows how he learned his swordsmanship, or if he was born with it?

He has not only mastered the Five Great Mountains Swordplay to its pinnacle.

Instead, it is about discarding the dross and retaining the essence, and bringing forth new ideas.

This elevates the Five Great Mountains Swordplay to another level!

If the Five Great Mountains Sword Sects had not always fought on the front lines against the Sun Moon Sect, and if Dongfang Bubai had Dongfang Bubai been so familiar with the Five Great Mountains Swordplay from his bloody battles on the front lines, he would likely have been defeated when Ji Boying suddenly transformed the sword technique into the Mount Song Sword Intent.

Dongfang Bubai grew increasingly exhausted as the fight progressed, while Ji Boying became more and more relaxed and at ease.

Using the seemingly gentle yet powerful Mount Heng Sword Style, which flows smoothly and effortlessly, he easily countered Dongfang Bubai's unpredictable and swift sword strikes.

Sometimes it incorporates some grand and archaic sword moves, and sometimes it suddenly increases its speed.

The speed and deception make it impossible to defend against.

In a short while, Dongfang Bubai had several more bloody marks on his body.

He selected a few representative moves from each of the sixty sword techniques and performed them.

The first time Ji Boying used this sword technique was against a master like Dongfang Bubai Ji Boying, he fought it with great satisfaction.

Having had a good time, Ji Boying turned on her and refused to delay any longer.

With a twist of the wrist, countless variations are condensed into the sword.

Suddenly, it transformed into a dangerous and sharp sword light.

The timing was precise and ruthless as it pierced through the continuous barrage of sword light from Dongfang Bubai!

The swift sword strike came to an abrupt halt.

A streak of blood sprayed through the air, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

A beautifully crafted sword inlaid with jewels was held by a severed hand, circled in the air a few times, and then fell to the ground.

Dongfang Bubai's right hand was severed at the wrist.

Fresh blood gushed out.

In an instant, Dongfang Bubai's face grew even paler.

"Master Dongfang, what do you think of the Heavenly Merit Five Directions Sword that I created?"

"Exceptional talent! Exquisite craftsmanship! Even Dongfang Bubai is ashamed of his Dongfang Bubai!"

Fresh blood was gushing down from his wrist.

Dongfang Bubai, however, was completely unaware.

Staggering, he turned and walked towards Yang Lianting.

"Brother Lian, his martial arts skills are very high, I am no match for him."

Yang Lianting also sighed.

"That's enough, all is well. I'll die after seeing you one last time, that's all."

The two sat down side by side on the ground and leaned against each other.

Dongfang Bubai turned to look at Ji Boying again.

"Dongfang Bubai was undefeated throughout his life, but now that he has been defeated, it is naturally time for him to die. Dongfang Bubai is still Dongfang Bubai."

"Young hero of the Mount Hua Sect, please give us a quick death."

Ji Boying naturally had no objection to Dongfang Bubai's request.

Two Bodhi Seed were driven into their skulls, instantly ending their lives.

They couldn't hide, nor did they have the ability to hide.

Ji Boying felt that the time was almost up.

We walked to the side of the hermitage.

He rummaged through the robes that Dongfang Bubai had just torn and, sure enough, found the thin booklet in the pocket.

Upon opening it, those eight large characters immediately came into view.

"Genuine product."

Such profound secret manuals are something that those with higher martial arts skills dare not even look at.

It's because seeing such profound skills always makes me want to practice them, but practicing this skill can lead to big problems.

Fortunately Ji Boying had already cultivated his Daoist Internal Cultivation to a considerable level.

With a little effort, the evil fire was suppressed.

Time has passed, and back then, I didn't even want to look at the Bixie Sword Manual.

Now I even dare to seriously read through the authentic Sunflower Manual.

He turned around and beheaded Yang Lianting and Dongfang Bubai, then tied their hair together in a knot.

He hung the iron sword back at his waist, carrying the severed head, and walked out while casually flipping through the secret manual in his hand.
