Qiongxiao's Sword, Bixiao's Scissors: All Three Sisters Break Through to Taiyi

After Yunxiao touched the threshold of Taiyi, the cultivation atmosphere across Penglai visibly changed.

It was not because Luxuan had set any tests for the three sisters.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao had simply been provoked.

Especially Bixiao.

Usually, she was the best at loafing around.

But when she saw her eldest sister on the verge of a breakthrough, she ran faster than anyone else.

On Void Cliff.

Spatial fissures appeared one after another.

Bixiao sat cross-legged within them, the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors suspended above her head. The two golden flood dragons sometimes transformed into divine scissors to cleave through the void, and sometimes intertwined head to tail, evolving Yin-Yang Transformation.

Over the years, she had discovered something.

What she excelled at was not merely spatial teleportation.

It was "cutting."

Space could be cut open.

The connections between streams of mana could be cut.

Formation nodes could be cut.

Even magical treasures controlled through divine sense could have their connection forcibly severed by the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors, provided her power was sufficient.

With one snip.

The more things she could sever.

The happier Bixiao became.

This style suited her personality rather well.

Simple.

Direct.

No flashy tricks.

When in doubt, snip first.

If one snip did not solve it.

Then snip again.

A hundred years passed.

Bixiao suddenly opened her eyes.

The Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors shot into the sky.

The two divine dragons roared as they crossed one another.

Crack!

The incomparably stable space before her was like a sheet of transparent glazed glass, forcibly sheared open into a black rift stretching ten thousand zhang.

This time.

The rift did not rapidly heal.

Bixiao took one step forward.

Her figure disappeared into it.

When she reappeared.

She was already tens of thousands of li away, at the other end of Void Cliff.

She had not relied on instinctive teleportation.

She had truly mastered a spatial divine ability that belonged to her alone.

Meanwhile.

Deep within Sword Valley.

Qiongxiao finally stopped the sword swings she had repeated for countless years.

Over these years, she had been doing something that looked rather foolish.

Draw her sword.

Strike down.

Sheathe her sword.

Again and again.

At first, every slash she made was earthshaking, Sword Qi stretching ten thousand zhang at the slightest movement.

Later, the sword light grew shorter and shorter.

A thousand zhang.

A hundred zhang.

Ten zhang.

By this day.

When she drew her sword again, not even the faintest trace of Sword Qi leaked from its blade.

All its sharpness.

Was condensed at the edge.

Qiongxiao looked at a piece of Innate Geng Metal Ore that Luxuan had specially retrieved from the depths of Penglai.

The next instant.

Her sword emerged.

There was no tremendous explosion.

There were no phenomena filling the skies.

The Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword merely brushed lightly across the surface of the metal ore.

A moment later.

The entire piece of Innate Geng Metal, capable of withstanding ordinary Taiyi attacks, silently split into two halves.

The cut was smooth as a mirror.

Satisfaction finally appeared in Qiongxiao's eyes.

She had found the sword she wanted.

She did not seek beauty.

She sought only speed and sharpness.

With one sword strike.

It only needed to kill.

Almost on the very same day that the two of them completed their respective divine abilities.

By the Three Lights Divine Water Lake.

Yunxiao also opened her eyes.

The Nine-Bend Cloud River Formation emerged on its own.

The Primordial Unity Golden Dipper trembled softly.

A wholly new aura of the Great Dao rose from within her.

The greatest difference between a Golden Immortal and Taiyi was not simply the amount of mana one possessed.

It was that cultivators began to truly merge their own Great Dao into their Primordial Spirit, mana, and the embryonic form of their Dao Fruit.

Yunxiao had prepared for long enough.

Her breakthrough naturally came as water flowed into a channel.

Boom!

The first Taiyi aura surged into the heavens.

The sea of clouds above all Penglai instantly churned.

Nine enormous cloud rivers encircled the firmament.

Yunxiao sat at the center.

Her cultivation rose all the way.

Golden Immortal Perfection.

The threshold of Taiyi.

The next moment.

The barrier shattered with a roar!

Early Primordial Unity Golden Immortal!

Bixiao, who was on Void Cliff, abruptly raised her head.

"Eldest Sister broke through?"

The moment her words fell.

The spatial mana within her, which had already accumulated to its limit, seemed to receive some kind of stimulus and instantly began to riot.

"Ah?" Bixiao herself froze for a moment.

"No way. Me too?"

The Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors gave an excited cry above her head.

Her accumulated insights into the Great Dao of space and yin-yang erupted all at once.

Bixiao only had time to sit cross-legged before layers upon layers of spatial ripples completely surrounded her.

On the other side.

Qiongxiao likewise sensed her own bottleneck beginning to shake violently.

She glanced at the Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword in her hand and suddenly smiled.

"Since that is the case, then let us do it together."

Boom!

The second aura rose.

Sword Qi shot straight into the ninth heaven.

The third aura followed close behind.

Layer upon layer of spatial ripples spread outward.

For a time.

Three utterly distinct Great Dao phenomena appeared simultaneously above Penglai.

The Nine-Bend Cloud River Formation encircled heaven and earth.

A streak of azure sword light pierced through the clouds.

Countless spatial ripples spread from the center of the island in all directions like ocean waves.

The Three Cloud Sisters.

All broke through to Taiyi on the same day!

Although the innate forbidden formation around Penglai could conceal most of the phenomena, the disturbance caused by the three breaking through simultaneously was simply too great. A small amount of aura still passed through the formation and appeared above the Eastern Sea.

Across a radius of hundreds of millions of li.

Countless loose immortals who were cultivating or traveling all raised their heads.

"What is that?"

"What an intense Great Dao phenomenon!"

"The direction seems to be Penglai!"

Some cultivators who had previously followed the Celestial Court battle swiftly reacted.

"I heard that Penglai's master, Luxuan, has three female disciples."

"Could it be that they broke through?"

"Are you joking? How long has it been since the last Celestial Court battle? Weren't they still Golden Immortals then?"

"But those three auras have clearly reached Taiyi!"

The discussion rapidly spread.

Those cultivators who had personally witnessed the Three Cloud Sisters fighting the thirty-six Taiyi of the Celestial Court felt even more complicated.

Back then, the Three Cloud Sisters had still needed to rely on Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasures and formations to join forces and contend with them.

How much time had passed now?

All three had become Taiyi.

This cultivation speed.

It was somewhat like leaving no way out for anyone else.

On Purple Palace Isle.

Several Great Luo of the Celestial Court also sensed the phenomena coming from the depths of the Eastern Sea.

They exchanged glances.

For a moment, no one spoke.

In the end, someone spoke in a low voice.

"Luxuan... is very good at teaching disciples."

The corner of another Great Luo's mouth twitched.

More than merely good.

What cultivation had those three juniors possessed when they first appeared?

Now they were all Taiyi.

If this kept up, the next time the Celestial Court went to Penglai, those disciples might be able to block them right at the gates themselves.

At the thought of the words "next time they went to Penglai."

Everyone's expressions froze again.

Forget it.

There had better not be a next time.

Within Penglai.

Luxuan had no attention left to spare for the outside world.

The Three Cloud Sisters had entered Taiyi at the same time.

Three growth feedbacks far exceeding anything before erupted simultaneously.

Rumble!

Array Dao.

Sword Dao.

Space Great Dao.

Along with the three sisters' brand-new understanding of the Great Dao's level during their Taiyi breakthroughs, all of it surged into Luxuan's Primordial Spirit at a hundredfold scale.

His Late Daluo Immortal cultivation had only broken through not long ago.

But at this moment.

His mana surged wildly once more.

Middle Late Great Luo.

Later stage.

It only gradually stopped when it nearly touched the threshold of completion.

Luxuan opened his eyes.

Feeling the mana within him, at least several times more vast and powerful than when Dongwang Gong had attacked, a smile rose to his face.

Not bad.

Very good.

If he kept raising them like this.

The next time Dongwang Gong came, he probably would not need to fight for so long.

The Three Cloud Sisters also finished their breakthroughs one after another.

Bixiao was the first to rush before Luxuan.

"Master!"

"We're all Taiyi now!"

"I saw."

Luxuan nodded.

"How do you feel?"

Bixiao thought seriously for a moment.

"I feel like the old me was so weak."

"..."

Luxuan found that summary remarkably accurate.

After one's realm rose, looking back at one's former self.

There was always the illusion of, I used to be this pathetic?

Yunxiao and Qiongxiao also came forward.

Though the auras around the three of them were still somewhat unstable, they were now true Primordial Unity Golden Immortals.

Luxuan swept his gaze over them.

"Stabilize your realms first."

"Especially don't go looking everywhere for someone to test your moves on just because you've just broken through."

As he said this, he was mainly looking at Bixiao.

Bixiao immediately put on a wronged expression that seemed to say, "Master, how could you think that of me?"

Luxuan was completely unmoved by that act.

"Especially you."

Bixiao: "..."

Yunxiao could not help but laugh.

Just as the three sisters prepared to return to their respective places of cultivation.

Outside the Penglai Primordial Formation.

A burly figure finally crossed the vast Eastern Sea and stopped before that stretch of sea hidden beneath boundless clouds and mist.

The newcomer looked up at the three Taiyi auras occasionally leaking from the formation.

His brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

"Yunxiao."

"Qiongxiao."

"Bixiao."

"What kind of master did you three even take?"
