White Eyebrows's arrangement was unfair to Li Yingqi and Wuji's relationship, but Lian Xing, having lost his memories, was no longer bound by lust, greatly increasing the chances of the Twin Sword Fusion, which also gave Mount Emei an opportunity to consolidate its strength.
So-called sacrifices are often made to achieve the greater good. Just as one must sever one's seven emotions and six desires on the path of cultivation, White Eyebrows did not hesitate to sacrifice the relationship between Wuji and Li Yingqi when the Twin Sword Fusion could increase their strength.
The rebuilt Lian Xing is no longer the Wuji of the past, but who can understand the pain in Li Yingqi's heart?
The winds and waves still rage atop the peak, and the two figures standing between heaven and earth are the righteous faction's greatest reliance. With fervent passion and unwavering loyalty, they have fought against the evil faction for thousands of years, and they are revered by countless people.
The passage of thousands of years and the vicissitudes of life have not obscured their Dao Heart, but in today's cold wind, the two figures seem particularly indifferent.
Several magical seals dissolved into his physical body, and countless spiritual materials were connected by Magic Power. The surging Magic Power broke through the shackles in his body, and the meridians throughout his body became prominent under the Magic Power.
The gathered remnant soul gradually solidified, enveloped by abundant vitality. Nourished by the physical body, the remnant soul finally developed a faint consciousness, subtly sensing the Earth Immortal Dharma Seal within its body.
With his Magic Power flowing with the magic seal, the remnant soul finally developed a strong sense of self. Lian Xing controlled his physical body and slowly opened his eyes. For the first time, a pretty face full of expectation was imprinted in his heart.
"Senior Brother Wuji! You..."
"Disciple Lian Xing greets Master!"
When Li Yingqi saw her senior brother come back to life, the anticipation on her face instantly turned into immense joy. However, the joy froze on her face the moment it appeared. The awakened Wuji called himself " Lian Xing " and did not speak to her. Instead, he slowly spoke to White Eyebrows.
Even though Li Yingqi was a great cultivator, she couldn't help but burst into tears at this moment. Her feelings for her senior brother were sincere, but she was also extremely thoughtful. Her senior brother's distraction caused the failure of the Twin Sword Fusion. At this moment, she had already understood White Eyebrows's arrangement in her heart.
She knew that her master's arrangement was for the sake of the sect and the righteous cause, but it meant sacrificing his personal relationship with his senior brother. Wasn't what he said about the path of cultivation just now also meant for her?
He already understood what was going on, and the expectation in his eyes for Lian Xing was hidden beneath. Seeing the different reactions of the two, White Eyebrows couldn't help but sigh softly, responding slightly to Lian Xing before pointing at Li Yingqi and saying:
" Lian Xing, you first learn the sword techniques from Yingqi. Once you are familiar with them, go to the Thunder Flame Sword Pavilion and summon the Thunderflame Sword. Open your Thunder Flame Sword. Yingqi, you nurture the Heaven Strike Sword, and then find an opportunity to combine the two swords. The Blood Alliance rebels are powerful. Without the combined might of the two swords, I'm afraid Mount Emei will not be able to overcome this obstacle, nor will the righteous sects of the world. The flames of war on the land will be difficult to extinguish. Yingqi, Lian Xing, you must prioritize the greater good!"
White Eyebrows walked step by step into the hall. His gaze swept over Lian Xing, and he spoke earnestly to the two of them. After he finished speaking, he looked deeply at Li Yingqi, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
"Your disciple will obey your instructions!"
Lian Xing and Li Yingqi bowed to White Eyebrows, and when they looked up again, they looked at each other. Li Yingqi hid her expectations, and her gaze towards Lian Xing was clear as water, but there was still a slight ripple in her eyes.
Lian Xing, whose physical body had been reconstructed, was no longer Changkong Wuji. His remnant soul, under the influence of the Illusory Fire, had lost its independent consciousness. It was White Eyebrows Mei who forcibly infused him with life force to revive him. With the help of two cultivators at the Immortal Realm and precious spiritual materials, Changkong Wuji Rebirth Divine Hall Lian Xing.
With the protection and resistance of the two Earth Immortal, the remnant soul did not offend the Heavenly Might when it merged with the Earth Immortals. Instead, it maintained its Mahayana Stage cultivation under the blessing of the Earth Immortal Dharma Seal.
Lian Xing looked at Li Yingqi in front of him. The pretty face opposite him was filled with joy. This was the first person he had seen since he opened his eyes. For some reason, a feeling of déjà vu welled up in his heart.
"Greetings, Yingqi. I would be grateful if you would teach me your sword techniques!"
" Wuji... Lian Xing, there's no need to be so polite. It's only my duty to teach you the Mount Emei sword techniques. However, the Thunder Flame Sword is difficult to control, so I hope you will be extra careful when opening your Niwan Palace!"
When Li Yingqi heard Lian Xing call her Junior Sister Yingqi, she was overjoyed. Her senior brother's familiar voice had finally returned. However, when she spoke, she could only avoid mentioning Changkong Wuji's name, which immediately dashed her joy.
Remembering White Eyebrows's instructions, she couldn't help but put aside her feelings and prioritize the Twin Sword Fusion. However, she was secretly heartbroken, and no one knew what was going on in her heart.
After they finished speaking, the two walked out of the main hall side by side and disappeared into the clouds above the mountain peak. White Eyebrows, who had been observing their expressions, finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Li Yingqi understood that Lian Xing's appearance was something her master had prepared for. Fortunately, Li Yingqi was sensible and did not reveal her feelings to Lian Xing. She probably also knew the pressure White Eyebrows was under, and she respected her master's choice.
White Eyebrows's preparations were unavoidable; he already knew that his disciple had developed feelings for him. Once the sect was at peace, he didn't need to pursue the matter further, since he still had the account Dan Chenzi to train.
However, now that Dan Chenzi has perished, and the Blood Alliance traitors Wuji barging into the mountain gate, the situation between good and evil is gradually collapsing. Mount Emei must consolidate its strength to maintain its voice among the righteous factions.
That's why he chose to Twin Sword Fusion, but he knew that Wuji's feelings for him were too deep to be severed, so he could only make two preparations to deal with any unexpected situations.
White Eyebrows watched the two disappear from the main hall. He knew that Li Yingqi Li Yingqi harbored feelings for Changkong Wuji, but he wondered how much of the conditions for achieving the " Immortal Realm " had been taken to heart when he explained them earlier.
Zunsheng shook his head slightly at White Eyebrows, meaning that all they could do now was to do their best and leave the rest to fate. White Eyebrows nodded in response to Zunsheng, his eyes sparkling, his gaze fixed on the outside of the Sword Pavilion.
Several days later, the Sword Pavilion reopened. Inside the hall, filled with the Geng Metal Qi, sword energy crisscrossed, and countless sword lights flowed within. Gusts of strong wind roared from the cliff, threatening to overturn the hall.
The Thunder Flame Sword emitted streaks of sword energy within the Sword Pavilion, with sword shadows constantly flashing through the air around it. It seemed to be impatiently receiving an intruding divine sense, and when the divine sense above its head invaded, the Thunder Flame Light went away.
With a clang, Li Yingqi unleashed his full Magic Power, swiftly sealing the top of the hall. A cold glint flashed before his eyes, and the howling wind on the cliff below paused for a moment. A series of clangs echoed within the hall, and countless sword energies dispersed inside.
"Senior brother, the Thunder Flame Sword has already left the Sword Pavilion. After you nurture it using your Niwan Palace Acupoint, it can be combined with my Heaven Strike Sword!"
Before the cold glint in his eyes had faded, Lian Xing waved his hand upon hearing this, and his divine sense in the sky instantly captured the trajectory of the Thunder Flame Sword. Lian Xing unleashed his full Magic Power, and under the guidance of his divine sense, a vast amount of Magic Power poured into the sword.
The sharp sword light was about to break through the sky, but under the guidance of divine sense, its momentum was suddenly stopped. As the great cultivator's divine sense and Magic Power intertwined, his control over the Thunder Flame Sword became stronger and stronger.
The indomitable Thunder Flame Sword tumbled in the air, its sword energy leaving streaks of sword shadows across the sky, as if trying to break free from Lian Xing's control. But at that moment, Lian Xing uttered a single word: "Chu," and a Power of Laws erupted in the sky.
It was futile for the Thunder Flame Sword to break free of its restraints. Lian Xing recited the law aloud and formed a sword incantation with his hands. As the Thunder Flame Sword swirled back in the air, he opened his Niwan Palace (a point on the back of the head), a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and then quietly closed his Niwan Palace.
Li Yingqi gave him an approving look, and then the Heaven Strike Sword, hidden in the clouds, was also retrieved.
"Thank you for your protection, Junior Sister. I will dedicate myself to refining the Thunder Flame Sword day and night these next few days. I will follow your instructions completely and will not delay the fusion of the two swords!"
After Lian Xing sheathed the Thunder Flame Sword, he bowed to Li Yingqi. Sensing the surging Magic Power within him, he knew that what had just happened was far from easy.
Li Yingqi was worried that Thunder Flame would repel Lian Xing, since it was a flying sword that had been refined by Changkong Wuji. So he specially brought Heaven Strike Sword to protect him. Fortunately, Lian Xing did not have a strong repulsion with Thunder Flame Sword.
Once Lian Xing has refined the Thunder Flame in his Niwan Palace, the two swords can be combined again. Without Changkong Wuji Wuji's lustful thoughts, the chances of this combination succeeding are very high.
Looking at Lian Xing's profile, Li Yingqi felt a mix of emotions.
clank!
Some time later, two clear sword cries rang out again atop the Mount Emei Range. The trails that appeared in the sky were particularly conspicuous, and the sword energy that spread through the clouds was extremely sharp.
Lian Xing and Li Yingqi below exchanged glances. Their eyes were clear and unwavering, and they held no blame for White Eyebrows's previous failure. However, in Li Yingqi's mind, this collaboration was already something that had to be accomplished.
She formed a sword incantation with her hands, released her divine sense into the sky, and poured all her Magic Power into the sword through her divine sense. The Heaven Strike Sword came whistling through the air, and the strong wind it created made the clouds automatically lift up like a beaded curtain.
On the other side, Lian Xing also had a solemn expression. He calmly and focused his mind on manipulating his divine sense, and poured all his Magic Power into the Thunder Flame Sword in a measured and orderly manner, causing the Thunder Flame Sword in the air to slightly increase in sharpness.
During this period of training, Lian Xing had come to regard the Thunder Flame as his natal magic weapon. Now, when he controlled the Thunder Flame Sword, he felt less unfamiliar with it than when he first left the Sword Pavilion.
As the two continued to pour their Magic Power into the swords, the power of the two sword lights in the air grew stronger with each strike, and a great roar resounded on the mountaintop. Under the bright daylight, there was even a faint glint of cold light.
There were only two sword lights, but the sword shadows they emitted were comparable to hundreds of flying swords combined. The Heaven Strike and Thunder Flame truly deserve to be the sect's most treasured weapons!
The trajectories of the two sword lights in the air grew shorter and shorter, and the sharp sword energy became more and more concentrated. They were about to merge together, and the Magic Power on the swords showed a tendency to coalesce.
The two below looked at each other again, their eyes filled with determination. They were determined to clear their minds of all distractions and focus all their attention on controlling the combined attack of the two swords.
Controlling the sword light requires the combined will of two people, who must understand each other's intentions, merge their Magic Power and divine sense, and then manipulate the sword light to merge together, so that the scattered sword light can be condensed into one, thus achieving a state of perfect harmony.
The air resounded with the clanging of metal against metal, a result of the mutual repulsion of Magic Power. Fortunately, it did not cause a violent reaction. Below, Lian Xing and Li Yingqi's Mind Stone began to merge, sensing each other's Magic Power and divine sense.
Sky Heaven Strike and Thunder Flame began to converge in mid-air. The two sword lights whistled past each other, then suddenly changed direction in mid-air, leaving two long trails in their tails. After Heaven Strike spun around, it tried to converge with Thunder Flame.
The sword light twisted its body, forming a giant braid in the air in an instant. Lian Xing's expression was solemn. He captured the trajectory of the Heaven Strike Sword with his divine sense. After his Mind Stone made a faint connection with Li Yingqi, the Thunder Flame Sword in the air slowed down and gradually approached the Heaven Strike Sword that was rushing towards him.
As their Magic Power merged, the Magic Power on the two swords no longer repelled each other. The two swords each Fusion the other's Magic Power and began to flip under the control of their divine senses. The trails drawn by the flying swords at their sheaths gradually became smaller.
As the two swords drew closer and closer, the fluctuations in their trajectories became smoother, and the two braided trails in the air gradually tended to turn into ponytails. The Fusion of Magic Power within the swords was finally completed, and a majestic aura was revealed from them.
Clang!
The two sword cries from before have now merged into one, and the two conspicuous trajectories in the air have also condensed into one. Sword energy rages between heaven and earth, and sword shadows are densely packed within the mountain gate.
Enveloped by the immense Power of Laws, a sword light was poised to pierce the sky. The tremendous roar was almost impossible to conceal beneath the heavens. The sharp sword energy sometimes converged and sometimes dispersed in the air, sending a chill down one's spine.
As the two swords rose higher, the force generated during the flips automatically dispersed the clouds above Mount Emei Range, like a beaded curtain being rolled up to reveal the heavens beyond. The sword energy bursting forth from the sword light was so intense that even the stars below the heavens seemed to dim.
The overwhelming might of the heavens could not hinder the sword energy, nor could the vast sky imprison the sword light. The sharp sword energy was poised to cleave space, and in the hands of the disciples of Mount Emei, it was destined to strike directly at the evil sects of the world.
Today, it seems that another powerful being at the Immortal Realm has been born in the world. The two sword lights from Mount Emei have combined, and this is a combat power comparable to that of Earth Immortal immortal.
Heaven Strike and Thunder Flame truly live up to their reputation as treasures of the sect for thousands of years. The shrewd and calculating White Eyebrows is indeed worthy of being the leader of the righteous sect. After their combination, the two swords already possess the combat power to fight against Earth Immortal alone.
Mount Emei's strength has been consolidated once again. In this war, every bit of strength increases the chance of survival!
Sensing the sword energy beneath the sky, White Eyebrows and Zunsheng inside the hall nodded slowly. As Earth Immortal, they naturally felt the immense power emanating from the two swords.
Although he was not as strong as a renowned Earth Immortal Realm, he was far stronger than Li Yijun, who was only Half-Step Earth Immortal. White Eyebrows breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure he faced from the combined attack of the two swords was no less than that faced by Li Yingqi and Lian Xing.
