Mountain-Splitting Earth-Piercing Method vs. Earth Abyss Earth-Spirit Art!
"Mahayana Sensing".
"Twenty-three layers of Guangyuan Sword Qi."
Lu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze from the starry sky and shook his head. The Cultivation Method passed down by the Guangyuan Immortal Sect was the "Azure Origin Sword Art Canon," which was formed by the Fusion and enhancement of the "Luofu Sword Scripture" and the "Luofu Sword Canon Scripture."
Because it was passed down in the Guangyuan Immortal Sect, it eventually became the "Guangyuan Sword Canon".
Ordinary disciples only cultivate the Unorthodox Grade.
However, figures like Wang Zhongbai, who had already achieved True Immortal, had already received the True Disciple and cultivated the Orthodox Grade Guangyuan Sword Canon, which was profound, unparalleled, and extremely powerful.
During the Mahayana Stage, one can condense ninety-nine Sword Qi. At the Mahayana Pinnacle, one must use these ninety-nine Sword Qi to construct the Everlasting Dharma Realm, which is called the 'Sword Realm'. It is constantly nurtured, and one integrates all of one's lifelong sword dao insights and all of one's lifelong Law Power into the ninety-nine Sword Qi, gradually shattering and devouring the mist.
Ultimately, it became incredibly powerful, until it completely shattered the Everlasting-Life Mist and achieved Changsheng.
It is a method that directly leads to Changsheng.
Wang Zhongbai achieved the Mahayana Sensing, the First Realm of True Immortal. Reaching its peak, he should theoretically be able to condense thirty-three Sword Qi. However, he currently only has twenty-three. Clearly, his Law Power is still insufficient, and his cultivation is even more lacking. He still has a long way to go before breaking through to the Second Realm of True Immortal, the Mahayana Tribulation Crossing.
"The master passed down the great techniques, and the strongest in swordsmanship are the eldest brother and the second sister, followed by Chong Bai. Once they reach the Mahayana Realm, without guidance from the scriptures, they inevitably become somewhat weak."
"He lacks comprehension, but he's willing to put in the hard work to figure things out."
"In addition, I have to protect my junior sister in Flying Phoenix Abyss all year round, and I have to preside over all the affairs of the sect, which has also taken up a lot of his energy."
"Mountain Wind said from the side."
He had been in charge of the Guangyuan Immortal Sect for over 110,000 years. Although Wang Zhongbai was True Immortal, he had grown up under his watchful eye and had witnessed the latter's diligence and hard work.
At this moment, Lu Qingfeng appeared and, seeing that he seemed to have seen through it, couldn't help but speak up and say a few kind words in his defense.
"No matter what, as the only True Immortal swordsman in Guangyuan, his swordsmanship is still lacking."
"Once I've dealt with this scoundrel, I'm going to teach him a lesson."
Lu Qingfeng shook his head again.
But what he said made Mountain Wind overjoyed, "It is Chongbai's good fortune that the master is willing to personally guide us. Mountain Wind thanks the master on behalf of Chongbai!"
Lu Qingfeng chuckled softly, but said nothing.
After his initial joy for Wang Zhongbai, Mountain Wind realized what was going on. His gaze shifted to Ping Bufan, who was Wang Zhongbai the Ping Bufan, completely suppressing him. He then looked at Lu Qingfeng hesitantly and said, "Master, Ping Bufan been somewhat arrogant, he has always been quite respectful towards my Guangyuan Sword Sect. He even acts as a junior in my presence, showing considerable deference. His behavior today is rather strange—"
"It's strange that someone is playing tricks on us."
Lu Qingfeng chuckled and spoke towards the battle in the heavens.
"Someone's sabotaging this?!"
Upon hearing this, Mountain Wind raised an eyebrow and blurted out, "Could it be the Southern Florescence Realm?"
He was shocked.
But he had no doubt about Lu Qingfeng's words. His mind raced, and his first suspicion fell on the Southern Florescence Realm. If True Immortal from the Southern Florescence Realm had infiltrated the Black Star Realm, then Ping Bufan's sudden provocation would make sense.
"We'll know once we capture him."
Lu Qingfeng said nothing, but took out a stone axe with a hidden five-colored radiance and threw it to Mountain Wind, saying, "This is the 'Five-Ding Axe'. It is infused with 129,600 layers of Five-Ding Runes. It can split mountains and shatter stars. Its power is boundless. You cultivate the 'Yellow Robe True Formula' and have immense strength. It is difficult to have a suitable magic Law Artifact. This axe is perfect for you."
Mountain Wind listened, reached out and took the five-colored stone axe, examining it closely. He saw that the five colors were gestating within the stone axe, and that it felt as heavy as Mount Tai, as if he were holding a divine mountain in his hand.
His eyes gleamed, and upon closer inspection, he saw a wisp of Pure Yang energy condensed within.
That one glance.
The Mountain Wind immediately knew—
"Pure Yang Immortal Artifact?!"
With wide eyes, Mountain Wind suddenly looked up at Lu Qingfeng.
"Good."
"Hurry up and refine it, that kid is about to give up."
Lu Qingfeng said loudly.
In the Nine Netherworlds Buiting Mountain, he first annihilated twelve Earth Immortal of the Killing Division of Sage-Welcoming Peak, obtaining more than ten immortal swords and several Immortal Artifacts. He then slaughtered Earth Immortal and seized Immortal Artifact at Redwood Ridge.
These Five-Ding Axe belonged to an Earth Immortal from Redwood Ridge.
The strange stone was taken from the Buiting Mountain Buting and continuously refined over tens of thousands of years, incorporating the Five-Ding Runes of the One Yuan Number, before it was finally made into Immortal Artifact.
With a single swing of the axe, it possesses the power to split the heavens and the earth; only those born with divine strength can wield it.
It is truly fitting to bestow this upon the Mountain Wind.
"Thank you, sir!"
Mountain Wind was overjoyed and quickly thanked him before sitting cross-legged and beginning the refining process.
Although he was a top-tier immortal sect patriarch in the Black Star Realm, an undisputed number one figure across countless stars, over the years he had only managed to acquire a few eighth-tier Law Artifact at most.
In terms of power and quality, it is not even as good as the original Eight-Scenery Tower or the 'Mountain-Driving Whip' in Ping Bufan's hands.
Under the starry sky.
There are no Immortal Artifact.
Now that Lu Qingfeng has bestowed upon him Immortal Artifact, especially a handy one like the 'Five-Ding Axe', Mountain Wind Immortal Artifact naturally delighted.
Circulate your Law Power and refine it with a calm mind.
This 'Five-Ding Axe' was originally a treasure painstakingly refined by Earth Immortal. Even if the Earth Immortal perished, it was not something True Immortal like Mountain Wind could easily refine. Fortunately, Lu Qingfeng had already used the 'Five-Colored Divine Light' to erase all traces of the 'Five-Ding Axe'.
Spiritual purification.
There were no obstacles.
In just a moment, Mountain Wind had already begun to refine the 'Five-Ding Axe', and could use some of its power. With continued dedicated refinement, as long as he was willing to put in the hard work, he would eventually be able to wield it with ease.
"Master."
Mountain Wind opened his eyes, his hair and beard white, his back hunched. But he held the Five-Ding Axe in his hand, and in an instant, a terrifying aura rushed towards him, as if a giant who had created the world stood before him, incomparably upright.
"Go."
"Ping Bufan had no ill intentions; defeating him is enough, there's no need to hurt him."
Seeing Mountain Wind stand up, Lu Qingfeng gave instructions.
"Yes."
The Mountain Wind laughed loudly in response.
Even without Immortal Artifact, he was able to suppress Ping Bufan with his Divine Abilities. Now, having obtained the Five-Ding Axe, he is even more confident.
They answered and came down.
Without hesitation, he took a step forward and burst out of the Flying Phoenix Abyss. All things considered, aside from the difficulties Guangyuan Immortal Sect faced with the Hundred-Wheel Sect back then, Mountain Wind had never left Skylark's side during her Nirvana.
But things are different now.
With Lu Qingfeng by his side to Guardian, Mountain Wind felt at ease.
He was carrying Five-Ding Axe in one hand.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived in the heavens.
Meanwhile, outside the heavens, Wang Zhongbai was already in a losing streak against Ping Bufan, with little power to retaliate.
Boom!
Ping Bufan's Mountain-Driving Whip slammed down, shattering the layers of Sword Qi unleashed by Wang Zhongbai. The Mountain-Driving Whip fell fiercely, like a mountain hanging upside down. Under immense pressure, Wang Zhongbai had no time to dodge and was forced to meet it head-on. He could only use one hand to hold his sword and parry, while simultaneously channeling his Law Power to its maximum to protect himself.
If this happens, Wang Zhongbai will be defeated on the spot and seriously injured.
But at this moment.
A hunched figure suddenly appeared outside the stars. As soon as he appeared, he reached out with his left hand, using it as an axe to split the mountain. Amidst the flashing light, a loud 'boom' was heard. Ping Bufan was holding the Mountain-Driving Whip, was not only directly blocked by this axe, but was also blasted hundreds of miles away.
"Ancestor."
Yu Sheng, Wang Zhongbai looked at the newcomer, his face immediately turning red. He bowed and said with shame, "This disciple is incompetent and has disgraced Guangyuan."
"You achieved enlightenment before Ping Bufan, and you also possess the supreme treasure Mountain-Driving Whip. It's understandable that you are no match for him."
"Don't blame yourself too much."
The visitor was none other than Mountain Wind.
The Mountain Wind breeze was gentle, and it reassured Wang Zhongbai.
"Disciple--"
Wang Zhongbai still looked ashamed, but then he was startled and hurriedly said, "Ancestor shouldn't have come. This Ping Bufan provoked us, trying to provoke you into taking action. He probably has ulterior motives. Flying Phoenix Abyss cannot be without someone!"
Although he was completely suppressed when he fought Ping Bufan, he also sensed something strange about it.
After much thought...
Ping Bufan seems to be intentionally trying to lure out Ancestor Mountain Wind. Upon further reflection, if Ancestor Mountain Wind were to appear, Flying Phoenix Abyss would be left Guardian, putting Ancestor Skylark in grave danger.
Upon seeing the Mountain Wind Ancestor, Wang Zhongbai immediately felt a sense of foreboding.
"Rest assured."
"Nothing happened at Flying Phoenix Abyss."
Mountain Wind Feng chuckled and waved his hand, feeling more relaxed than ever before. "With Master overseeing Flying Phoenix Abyss, Junior Sister's Nirvana will be much safer than before."
Wang Zhongbai, unaware of Mountain Wind's thoughts, looked both surprised and suspicious, his brows furrowed. He was unsure whether to advise the ancestor to return to Flying Phoenix Abyss or do something else.
Mountain Wind ignored him, his gaze fixed on Ping Bufan in the distance.
"I have long heard of Senior Mountain Wind's powerful Divine Ability, especially his ability to Mountain-Splitting Earth-Piercing Divine Ability, which is the perfect counter to my Earth Spirit Sect."
"Having seen it today, I can confirm that its reputation is well-deserved."
Ping Bufan steadied himself, his right hand gripping the Mountain-Driving Whip, which he concealed on his body, and continued his steady and entangled combat.
Obviously.
In just one clash, Ping Bufan suffered a hidden loss and fell into a disadvantageous position.
"Enough with the small talk."
"This old ancestor has long wanted to experience the wondrous methods of the Earth Spirit Sect Miaofa."
Knowing that the master was among the stars below and was eager to show himself, Mountain Wind was unwilling to say Ping Bufan. He didn't rush to use the Five-Ding Axe, but instead circulated his Law Power and secretly channeled his Divine Ability.
He was practicing the "Yellow Robe True Formula" and the "Mountain-Splitting Earth-Piercing Method".
Take a step forward.
The earth shook violently.
Its Divine Ability immediately surged forth, and in the void, it was as if mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting, as if it wanted to tear Ping Bufan to shreds.
"Good timing!"
Seeing this, Ping Bufan was not intimidated at all; on the contrary, his eyes lit up with excitement. He remained vigilant, channeling his Law Power into the Mountain-Driving Whip, and a roar erupted in his mind, "Three thousand miles of the Earth Abyss, Earth Spirit Suppresses the True Demon!"
The roar resonated within my heart.
The Mountain-Driving Whip ripped open layers of void, revealing Earth Abyss that stretched for three thousand miles. From within, a towering demon god emerged. The Divine Ability radiated a yellow light, its face like Chaos, and its appearance distorted the surrounding void.
"Earth Abyss Earth Spirit".
Upon seeing the Yellow Light Demon God, Wang Zhongbai immediately recognized it as the most powerful Miaofa of the Earth Spirit Sect. It used the "Mountain-Driving Art" to carve out Earth Abyss and summon earth spirits from it, capable of suppressing true True Immortal and immortals.
Ping Bufan is True Immortal, his "Mountain-Driving Art" is masterful, and he wields the supreme treasure "Mountain-Driving Whip." When he uses it, the Earth Abyss Earth Spirit he summons possess Divine Ability that even surpass his own. Controlling the earth spirits to launch a frontal assault while he provides support from the side, even if the Mountain Wind Ancestor is stronger, he would likely be at a disadvantage.
In a short time.
Wang Zhongbai gripped his longsword tightly, ready to lend a helping hand at any moment.
