Chapter 1651: The Sun Sword Child

The Great Sun Sword Child's face was sour.

"Pay attention to this formation…"

The Sun Sword Child's clone chattered endlessly beside him, saying a great many things, taking out one formation tool after another—copper tripods, jade ruyi, mountain peaks, sealed ponds and lakes, and even special oceans…

And so on and so forth, one after another they fell, spreading across this stretch of starry sky, soon burying the Great Sun Sword Child completely, not even a shadow of him to be seen.

"Right, you know this Yin-Yang Heaven-Locking Formation, don't you?"

"I recall the inheritance seed from back then included the inheritance of the Boundary-Setting Formation, and the Yin-Yang Heaven-Locking Formation is the higher-tier inheritance of your Boundary-Setting Formation—let me teach you…"

The Sun Sword Child rummaged around, once again digging the Great Sun Sword Child out from a pile of formation tools, took out a jade slip, and explained the formation on it in detail.

After the victory at the Tiangong Star Chain battlefield, it wasn't as if they just left things be.

Corresponding formations had to be laid out, providing power influence points for the Supreme to seize the Spirit Treasure Realm inheritance, letting the Supreme hold more advantage in contending for the Spirit Treasure Realm.

Jiang Ding's face was wooden; he said nothing.

The Sun Sword Child chattered endlessly, explaining the *Yin-Yang Heaven-Locking Formation* ten times in a row, then glanced at the Great Sun Sword Child again.

The Great Sun Sword Child gave no response.

"The Yin-Yang Heaven-Locking Formation is the higher-tier inheritance of formations like the Great Sun Boundary-Setting Formation, the Yin-Yang Sword Boundary-Setting Formation…"

The Sun Sword Child began the eleventh explanation.

He hadn't even changed his words—basically copying them word for word—each instant transmitting over an enormous amount of divine sense data, comparable to harassing someone ten billion times in a single instant, without pause.

"Shut up."

"The higher-tier inheritance—"

The Sun Sword Child looked over in confusion.

"You only need to explain it once."

"Got it."

Jiang Ding said coldly, "My formation mastery is higher than yours, my army formation mastery is higher than yours. One explanation is enough—no need to repeat it so many times."

He had realized that without the Moon Sword Child's cooperation, the Sun Sword Child was relatively weak among the Dao Children.

Toward this kind of person who fled before the sword duel even began and, upon seeing him, immediately started shifting blame and dumping tasks, he was extremely angry—but truly couldn't refuse.

"You really have no manners."

"Great Sun."

The Sun Sword Child frowned slightly, then smoothed it out: "Since you've got it, I'll leave this place to you. I'm going back to heal my wounds."

"If nothing goes wrong here, I won't come back."

He looked thoroughly relaxed.

"Oh right."

"Take this."

The Sun Sword Child seemed to remember something, formed hand seals, struck out yin-yang runes one after another, and after a moment drew something from the void—

something like a stone coffin—and handed it to Jiang Ding.

"This is something the Sword Lord gave you."

"Inside is one volume of Near-Immortal scripture, three volumes of incomplete Near-Immortal scripture bestowed, and three hundred sixty thousand volumes of Heavenly-Person scripture and below."

"…"

Jiang Ding was stunned, somewhat at a loss.

He had never seen such a strange person, never encountered such a thing.

"The complete Near-Immortal scripture seems to be called *Heavenly Wasteland Yang-Mang Heaven-Refining Scripture*?"

"I'm not too sure either, but it is indeed a body-refining scripture."

The Sun Sword Child thought for a moment and said, "I'm just delivering it, I haven't studied it. Let me tell you first—there's no *Grand Yin Grand Yang Sword Scripture* in here, and certainly no sword-path Near-Immortal scripture, because the Great Sun Sword Path is an entirely new path. You can't be influenced too much by other sword scriptures, or it will just be a clumsy imitation of the Grand Yin Grand Yang Sword Path."

"And you are alone."

"No matter how much a single person imitates the Grand Yin Grand Yang Sword Path, they truly cannot walk it to the end."

"Near-Immortal scriptures aren't easy to preserve, and unsealing them is even harder. If you want to unseal the *Heavenly Wasteland Yang-Mang Heaven-Refining Scripture* now and ensure its divine essence isn't lost, you'll need at least several tens of thousands of years."

"But the Great Sun Heavenly Palace will descend soon—just have the Great Sun Heavenly Palace help you unseal it…"

The Sun Sword Child began chattering endlessly again.

And it wasn't just talking—his divine sense started up that harassment attack of over a billion frequencies per second again, transmitting massive amounts of useless information, repeating one matter over and over, even ten or dozens of times—who knows how he developed this habit.

It was enough to make one's head explode!

For months on end, it was this crazy repetition.

This time, Jiang Ding somehow maintained tremendous patience and never interrupted him.

"When the Great Sun Heavenly Palace unseals it, you must pay attention…"

"When paying attention, you must pay attention…"

"Don't actually go refining your body. Although the Yang-Bone Heavenly Person is refining his body, that path of his seems hard to walk through. We shouldn't learn from him—a sword cultivator refining his body is simply…"

The Sun Sword Child grew more and more excited as he spoke.

"Is there anything else?"

Jiang Ding asked suddenly.

"Nope, just delivering the inheritance and laying out the formation to receive and support Master. But there are still many details I haven't made clear—let me go over it with you again…"

The Sun Sword Child said casually.

Clang!

A terrifying beam of destructive solar light descended.

This sword struck the Sun Sword Child's clone, countless materialist solar-rule Heavenly Dao laws bloomed, sealing him into amber-solid form, then hurled him viciously out of the Tiangong Star Chain world cluster like throwing away garbage, and soon he streaked like a meteor—

The trace was spotted.

This starry sky finally grew quiet.

"Haa~~"

Jiang Ding let out a long sigh, a powerful sense of relief rising in his heart.

The Great Moon Sword Disciple, who had been standing normally beside the Great Sun Sword Disciple, suddenly found himself alone; a sharp sense of alertness and unease surged in his heart as he stared at the Great Sun Sword Disciple.

"Is he always like this?"

"How can humans endure someone like this?"

Jiang Ding could not help but speak.

"He is usually like this, right?"

"Is there a problem?"

The Great Moon Sword Disciple asked with some confusion: "When he lectures the disciples on the Dao, if he were not this detailed, they would not understand. He has taught many Sword Realm disciples, and is beloved by many sword cultivators, liked by many sword cultivators."

"However, today he is far more excited than usual."

"It must be because he encountered a kindred spirit with whom he can exchange ideas."

"I see."

Jiang Ding made an "oh" sound, and his face instantly turned cold: "Now you can get out, weak Great Moon female cultivator."

"This Lord has always believed that only a sacred sword duel can allow the inheritances of past ancestors to advance further, moving closer to the True Immortal, rather than spending a life in mediocrity and dullness."

"This is not born of hatred."

"The more intense and deep the emotions between sword cultivators, the more they should fight a life-or-death battle."

"This is out of the pursuit of the Dao!"

"The survivor must surely bear the glory of the fallen; what is there to regret?"

"Hmph!"

"Great Sun remnant!"

The Great Moon Sword Disciple's projection snorted coldly, said nothing, turned around, and flew toward the outside of the Tiangong Star Chain World Cluster, in the direction the Great Sun Sword Disciple's projection had been thrown.

The Great Moon lineage and the Great Sun lineage have almost an innate mutual aversion; they are almost impossible to reconcile.
