[Si Xuan Underground Palace], a grotto-heaven treasure of old Great Xia used to suppress Tiger Terrace and spread teachings and learning, was first nourished by Great Xia's national fortune, then enshrined under the official fortune of Great Qi and Southern Xia... Its power was no trifling matter. Among grotto-heaven treasures, its ranking might well surpass that of grotto-heavens themselves.
But Jiaoming moved through this place, the light of the [Law-Breaking Azure Blade] flowing over her body. She cleaved laws, cleaved Dao, severed all restraints, as though she suffered no suppression at all.
The aftershocks of her pursuit of Ruan Qiu had already transformed heaven and earth.
In the blink of an eye, vermilion towers became rubble, bright palaces became ruins.
Fortunately, the students cultivating in the underground palace had withdrawn before the war began. Though this place had been turned upside down, only Ruan Qiu bled.
Droplets of blood scattered across the path he had taken, like the dance of mayflies.
Ruan Qiu retreated.
Jiaoming advanced.
Amid the palace complexes that endlessly crumbled and collapsed, the two wheeled about like Roaming Lightning.
Five-element spells, astrological secret seals, all manner of killing formations, even grand arts of national fortune... Let a thousand techniques come—Jiaoming answered them all with a single slash.
She had truly mastered the path of [Law-Breaking]. Any "art" formed by channeling some form of energy, she could disrupt its special arrangement and return it to disorder, slicing it back to its fundamental original state.
A Starry Sky Daoist art newly developed by the Qi State Art Academy met Jiaoming's hand blade. The sky full of Sharpness that had already formed into a rain of arrows was returned to a chaotic mass of primordial energy, along with Star Power drifting without anywhere to settle, and Dao Essence scattered everywhere
