A sense of gloom settled over everything.
The various colored lights gradually disappeared into nothingness.
Xuanchengzi stood with his hands behind his back, his right hand hidden in his sleeve. Blood, like beads of mercury, dripped down continuously, then seemed to flow back and return to the wound in the center of his palm.
A flash of crimson light tore open the wound that was about to heal, and blood dripped again... This repeated itself, making the Renewed Net Sect's eyes grow increasingly gloomy.
A Daoist priest in feathered robes stood holding a sword, the blade of which rippled with black light, and gradually a crimson comet emerged from the tip of the sword.
Behind it, the void was dim, and a faint, crimson star could be seen shining.
From the heavens and earth, a continuous stream of malevolent energy fell into this crimson hidden star from the the Unseen.
As a result, the color of the Hidden Star grew increasingly deep, gradually changing from a pale red to a thick, blood-red, which instilled fear in those who looked upon it.
Xuanchengzi stared at the crimson hidden star, the gloom in his eyes gradually fading, and he spoke:
"I remember, the Jade Spring Sect isn't a major righteous sect... How come Fellow Xuhong Hong's swordsmanship is even more like the demonic path than the demonic path itself?"
Chen Shuangbai just chuckled.
"Speaking of the demonic path... the technique you displayed in [ Pengyu Heaven ] back then can be considered the orthodox demonic path."
"My experience is nothing compared to that of the great masters."
Xuanchengzi did not argue, but spoke slowly in a low voice, "The malevolent energy of heaven and earth is the result of the karma of all living beings... Although you have exceptional talent, you are still young. If you become obsessed with this path, you will sooner or later be devoured by the malevolent energy and turn into a demon who only knows how to kill."
"At that point, you can no longer be called the Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal; you'll be called the Demonic Sword Immortal!"
This is truly a statement that strikes at the heart.
Although Chen Shuangbai is currently enjoying great fame, if these words were to spread throughout the country, it would indeed be a significant blow to the reputation of the Jade Spring Sect and the Vast Waves Alliance.
This person is not only highly skilled, but also incredibly adept at manipulating people's hearts.
However, deciphering this statement is actually quite simple.
"No matter how eloquently you speak, senior... do you think the Renewed Net Sect can escape the reputation of being a major sect of the demonic path based solely on your bewitching techniques just now?"
yes!
No matter how eloquently Xuanchengzi spoke... he just used demonic magic to try and corrupt the soul of this Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal.
With such a vicious Law Technique, how credible can the caster's words be?
Xuanchengzi stared at Chen Shuangbai for a moment, then sighed softly.
"You're so young, and you're taking such risky military maneuvers; sooner or later you'll harm yourself and others."
I don't yet know whether I will harm others or myself.
In the vast expanse of heaven and earth, only Chen Shuangbai's clear voice remained, saying:
"But you, Xuanchengzi... are the least qualified to say that."
That's all.
Chen Shuangbai pointed his sword, and the comet on the tip of the sword suddenly shone brightly. Then, a crimson light shot into the sky, and everything in its path was annihilated in the sword light. It was as if an ancient ferocious beast that had been trapped for thousands of years had finally gotten its chance to break free and was about to vent all the ferocity it had accumulated over the centuries in this one sword light.
Xuanchengzi clasped his hands together, forming a strange Law Seals, and proclaimed. "Withering and Flourishing Heaven - All Things Wither!"
Within the still surging Hei Sha storm, Hei Sha erupted, sweeping across the entire void.
Within this Spirit-Eroding Hei Sha, a cloud of grayish-white mist was released first. Wherever it passed, even the Spirit-Eroding Hei Sha dimmed and gradually turned into nothingness.
The True Lord Zhengu of the Heavenly Star Mystic Sect was extremely far away, his body radiant with starlight, which transformed into countless starlight hands that continuously descended, retrieving spiritual resources from the Hei Sha storm below.
Behind him, a disciple looked curiously at the gray-white mist surrounding Xuanchengzi that could annihilate the Spirit-Eroding Hei Sha, and exclaimed in astonishment:
"Master... Below the Spirit-Eroding Hei Sha Nascent Soul the Devouring God Black Fiend, anyone who touches it will die instantly. What kind of Divine Ability is this gray-white mist? How can it possess such power?"
True Lord Zhengu sat upright on the fishing platform, and after just one glance, a deep solemnity appeared in his eyes.
If we're talking about someone who understands the supernatural Divine Ability of the True Net Cult best, then it has to be Heavenly Star Mystic Sect!
" The True Net Cult worships the Six Heavens of True Net; this is the core tenet of the sect."
"Using these six days as a metaphor, and through continuous refinement, the [ Six Heavens of True Net Mysterious Method] was finally formed."
"This is one of the supernatural Divine Ability called the Withering and Flourishing True Qi and Flourishing... It is said to be made from the rotten earth energy of an extremely yin place that has existed for ten thousand years, mixed with the Secret Method of the True Net Cult. Once it touches the body, it will corrode the opponent's physical body and Law Power, causing them to rapidly decline."
At this point, even True Lord Zhengu was extremely wary:
"Even Nascent Soul Cultivator would lose 30% of their combat power in a short period of time if entangled by this Withering and Flourishing True Qi."
Upon hearing this, the disciple was also horrified.
"So powerful? Then this Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal must be...?"
All the cultivators looked over.
The gray-white mist spread out, and wherever it passed, the Spirit-Eroding Hei Sha receded, and even the void barrier became a thin layer.
In the blink of an eye, it had landed in front of Chen Shuangbai.
Above the sword immortal's head hung a pure white mirror, its surface as smooth as jade, like a pool of clear water. It summoned the illusory image of a celestial cassia tree, its branches laden with golden blossoms and delicate buds, exuding exceptional nobility and grace, and was protecting him.
But as soon as the grayish-white mist landed on the tree full of golden flowers and delicate stamens, it was as if winter had arrived, and in just an instant, all the beautiful colors were lost, and it even seemed about to pounce on his body.
He is indeed in the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Chen Shuangbai understood, and let the gray-white mist fall on him... then pass through his body, landing in a void rift below, and drifting further into the depths.
"Hoo... So this is the famous Divine Ability of the Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal, [ Conceal Form and Hide Traces ], isn't it?"
It has been five years since Xuanchengzi established the Renewed Net Sect, and it is false to say that he does not know about the information from various Nascent Soul both at home and abroad.
But he merely raised an eyebrow slightly, and the Law Seals in his hands changed again.
"Netherworld Heaven - Soul-Reaping Pursuit!"
A ball of dark purple light appeared in front of him, and with a flick of its wrist, it instantly stretched into a thin purple line, silently reaching towards Chen Shuangbai. However, unlike before, it did not land directly on Chen Shuangbai's true form.
"Huh?"
Chen Shuangbai looked down and saw that the purple thread had transformed into a shimmering purple ribbon, which circled his wrist several times. Numerous mysterious talismanic lights and shadows floated on it, and a feeling of restraint arose from the depths of his soul.
Xuanchengzi took a step forward and arrived in front of Chen Shuangbai in the next instant.
The Renewed Net Sect had the appearance of a righteous and virtuous master, which was extremely outstanding. However, his moves were extremely ruthless. He struck out with a palm in mid-air, aiming at Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal, who was bound by the purple ribbon.
"Thunderous Heaven - Long Firmament Mystic Thunder!"
