Chapter 1508: The Undying and Inextinguishable Yin-Yang Sword Dao

~8 min read 1,472 words

The divine bird conjured by the Sword Spirit's swordcraft creation hung in the air, soaring against the heavens, a terrifying sun clamped in its sharp beak!

This was a scene from myth and legend, now made real.

The sun was hazy and indistinct, possessed of the ultimate speed of rules, and a terrifying destructive high temperature.

The Sky-Wing Divine Bird paid a tremendous price for its actions—struck with tremendous force, it plunged violently into the void and the net of rules, and hundreds of thousands of kilometers of cosmic starry sky collapsed in swathes, everything within shattering to ruin.

"Lii!"

Yet the Sky-Wing Divine Bird refused to concede. Even though its black-and-white sharp beak was more than half melted away by the sun, it still would not yield, still shrieking sharply, wanting to peck the sun apart and swallow it into its belly.

The sun and the Sky-Wing Divine Bird fell into a frenzied slaughter!

Sometimes the sun hung in the sky, bursting forth with endless sword-qi radiance, blasting into the Sky-Wing Divine Bird's body, burning and melting away its splendid feathers, exposing white bone and raw flesh.

Sometimes the Sky-Wing Divine Bird gained the upper hand, its black-and-white sharp beak piercing deep into the sun, like the legendary Sun-Devouring Divine Bird, tearing apart and devouring the eternally existent sun.

The two clashed and tore at each other hundreds of thousands of times in the span of a single breath.

At last, the sun's light dimmed slightly. After forcing the Sky-Wing Divine Bird back a step, it instantly reversed course and flew back, appearing in the Sword Master's hand, transforming into a blue-gold flying sword that hummed and rang.

"Lii!"

The Sky-Wing Divine Bird, riding its momentum and showing no mercy, let out a sharp shriek. The world's spiritual energy and stellar essence from hundreds of thousands of starry skies surged toward it along the net of rules of the Taiyou Light Heaven Dao, allowing it to be reborn from fire and ashes amid the radiance—every wound on its body, every broken feather, every torn sword-beak instantly restored to their original state.

Bearing the manic killing intent that filled the sky, it stabbed toward this place!

The Taiyin-Taiyang Sword Dao!

This was the Taiyin-Taiyang Sword Dao!

The extreme of Yang gives birth to Yin, the extreme of Yin gives birth to Yang, cycling without end. It is a sword dao path with far too many merits. In history it founded an immortal sect that stood at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand Worlds, weathered the great tribulation, and remains brilliant to this day—that alone is enough to say everything.

So long as the enemy cannot instantly destroy a Taiyin-Taiyang sword cultivator, they will not perish!

A sword cultivator possessing such terrifying regenerative ability completely exceeded common sense—it was truly too inconceivable.

"Not bad,"

"Fellow Daoist Light has indeed given this sovereign a pleasant surprise."

Jiang Ding drew a deep breath and said.

He now had already begun to sense a faint cold scent of death.

Not only the Taiyou Light Sword Master before him, but also the possible presence of great experts from the Badaxian Sect—if time dragged on too long, death might arrive as scheduled.

Yet the Taiyin-Taiyang sword cultivator possessed the ability of undying!

This was where the danger lay.

A killing formation of death had, imperceptibly, already been laid out—the formless killing

intent of heavenly secrets wrapping around him bit by bit.

Should he take the risk to obtain the Heavenly Person inheritance?

Or give up everything now and flee on the spot?

All manner of hesitation arose in his heart, leaving him unable to choose.

This was greatly contrary to common sense.

The Great Sun Sword Master had always been decisive—no matter how enormous the benefit, he would not normally be reduced to this.

Heavenly secrets.

It must be heavenly secrets.

The mysterious heavenly-secrets inheritance passed down from an upper-realm immortal sect had anchored certain things through the deep desires and karma within the sword cultivator's heart.

"Haha…"

Jiang Ding suddenly laughed.

"The sacred sword duel shall not end here."

"Because this sovereign can have it all, with no need to choose between anything."

Clang!

Amid the sword's howl, a ring of earthen-yellow ripples spread outward, extending to every corner of the world visible to the eye.

The world seemed to sink into pale-yellow amber, and the spiritual-energy particles—one of the foundations of the immortal dao—underwent subtle yet essential changes, all spiritual things falling into an inert state.

Sword of Extinguishing Earth, Law-Forbidding Sword Domain!

The Sky-Wing Divine Bird, within the Sun Law-Forbidding Sword Domain, saw its originally terrifying speed plummet by a large margin, revealing a figure that even an ordinary Unity-Path Divine Monarch could see clearly—every feather and scale distinctly visible.

Vast magic power and divine sense began to dissipate uncontrollably within this terrifying sword domain comparable to the end-dharma age.

Clang!

Jiang Ding drew his long sword and struck out with one slash.

As the sword came forth, wind sounds arose—a breeze, a strong wind, a gale—then dark clouds gathered, and pattering golden raindrops fell, landing one by one on the Sky-Wing Divine Bird's body. Every single raindrop could move freely through the Sun Law-Forbidding Sword Domain; not only was its speed unaffected, it was actually enhanced.

A variant of the Sword of Extinguishing Metal, the embryonic immortal art: Summon Rain!

Drip!

Drip! Drip…

The rain grew heavier and heavier, heavier and heavier. Each raindrop was like a terrifying immortal-dao meteor, slamming into the Sky-Wing Divine Bird's body, forcibly slowing its speed by a fraction.

As the raindrops grew more and more numerous, gradually the Sky-Wing Divine Bird's speed slowed down bit by bit.

In the end, its speed came to a complete halt.

Like a traveler on a long journey, it was completely trapped within the torrential downpour, completely lost to itself, lost within the world of the Sun Sword Dao!

Looking out across the world, there was only rain and storms—nothing else remained.

Boundless killing intent and fear appeared in its wake.

"…De…defend!"

"…Just a Void Refinement cultivator—could your magic power and divine sense truly be endless? …"

The Taiyou Sword Lord whispered coldly.

Her words seemed to be trembling and shaking, yet also seemed to be in extreme excitement, so excited she was nearly going mad.

A being extremely close to a Dao Child of the upper realm's Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong!

If I could slay them in a sacred sword duel, what need would there be to speak of advancing to the Heavenly Being realm?

Even advancing above the Heavenly Being realm, there is a sliver of hope!

It can be called a heaven-defying, fate-changing great opportunity!

In such a desolate realm, in such a dull and tedious hundred-thousand-year life, to still be able to personally touch such a great opportunity.

Why does the heavens favor me and my wife so?

"Hahaha!"

"You'er, that suits my intentions perfectly!"

The Light Sword Lord laughed freely and without restraint.

Screech!

The words of the Dao companions, their blazing sword intent, suddenly transformed into the sound of the Heaven and Earth's Sword Dao. The Sky-Wing Divine Bird thus let out a destructive Sword Dao shriek, tearing apart the cosmic space for ten thousand li in all directions, shattering countless raindrops, forming a fog-shrouded marshland that concealed the four directions.

Drip drop!

Endless golden raindrops fell, landing in the white fog, dousing layer upon layer of white fog, revealing the scene within.

The Sky-Wing Divine Bird unfurled all of its divine feathers, totaling three hundred sixty-six thousand six hundred ninety-two, each one piercing through space, nailed into the net of Heaven's Dao rules, forming an incomparably massive Taiyou-Guangming Two Forms Sword Array. Within the array, hundreds of millions of black and white sword energies fired in unison, yin and yang indestructible.

These indestructible yin-yang sword energies gathered at the top of the great array, forming a Chaotic Yin-Yang Rain Umbrella that blocked the endless golden raindrops from the starry sky.

The sky-full of destructive raindrops fell, taking away layer upon layer of black and white sword energies, while the Taiyou-Guangming Two Forms Sword Array within simultaneously generated countless sword energies, yin and yang unending.

The battlefield,

once again fell into the war of attrition that Taiyin-Taiyang sword cultivators were extremely adept at.

"Interesting."

"Very interesting…"

Jiang Ding revealed a faint smile.

"The magnificent Yin-Yang Sword Dao — this sovereign did indeed look down upon it before. The inheritance of the upper realm's Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong indeed has its reason for existence."

If this consumption continued like this, he would undoubtedly die.

A Refining Void cultivator's magic power and divine sense were far from being able to compare with a Merging Dao Divine Lord.

"Four swords."

"Friend Guangming,"

Jiang Ding said softly.

"After four swords, you will die."
