Chapter 54: Saint's Praise, Wudang's Trump Card

~7 min read 1,317 words

"Senior Brother Xuandu, please enlighten me!"

At this time, Wudang did not hide anything anymore; after completing the condensation of the sword array, she raised her sword and slashed without hesitation.

The next second, sword energy with starlight shone and broke through the air, attacking Xuandu from all directions.

"Junior Sister Wudang, you truly make me look at you with new eyes."

Xuandu's expression also became solemn at this moment.

He could feel the terror of Wudang's strike, and even more clearly understand that under the blessing of the Seven Stars Sword Array, Wudang's strength was already not inferior to his own.

Combined with the decisive killing of the Shangqing Sword Dao itself, this was not good news for him, and he did not dare to continue to be slack.

Thinking of this, Xuandu could not care about anything else and directly summoned a whisk to meet the attack.

"Go!"

Flicking his hand, the whisk danced, and countless white threads flew out, like waves rolling out, continuously colliding with those Seven Stars sword qi.

Boom, boom, boom—

Boom, boom, boom—

In an instant, the battle between Xuandu and Wudang entered the second stage, and also entered a white-hot stage of mutual scorching.

"Senior Sister Wudang, come on!"

"Senior Sister Wudang, come on!"

"..."

Seeing both sides firing on all cylinders, the Jie Sect crowd shouted one after another.

They originally thought Wudang had no chance, but never expected that once the Seven Stars Sword Array came out, Wudang's strength would be greatly improved.

Under such circumstances, their hearts were also incomparably excited and expectant.

After all, the first place in the Three Teachings Grand Competition for so many years was undoubtedly Xuandu.

If Wudang could challenge successfully, then not only would Wudang herself achieve fame, but even the reputation of the Jie Sect would surpass the Ren and Chan Sects in the coming period.

"Good fellow!"

"Isn't this the sword array technique I've been thinking about?"

"Never expected that Senior Sister Wudang had already practiced it, and even with such huge effects."

In the crowd, Lin Fan widened his eyes, full of incredulity and yearning.

A long time ago, he had planned to condense the sword array technique with Sword Dao and Array Dao as the core, which could be said to be peerless in both offense and defense.

But he never expected that Wudang had already started, and even her attainments in this aspect were extremely huge.

At this moment, Lin Fan even wanted to ask for some cultivation insights about the sword array technique, so as to copy Wudang's sword array technique.

"No, that's not right!"

However, very quickly, Lin Fan calmed down.

Although the sword array technique Wudang displayed was indeed good, he still saw some clues.

Wudang's sword array technique was different from the sword array technique he envisioned, and even the ratio between the two was completely wrong.

Wudang used the array formation to bless herself, and then used the power of the array formation to urge the power of Sword Dao, thereby erupting with combat power where one plus one is greater than two.

But there was also a drawback to this aspect.

That was once the array formation was broken, the so-called sword array technique would completely shatter.

Although this was already a very good solution, and the power exerted was indeed extremely powerful.

But the sword array in Lin Fan's vision was not like this, but rather focused on Sword Dao, mobilizing all the power of Array Dao for his own use, with himself as the core; as long as he was not defeated, the sword array would not break, and he could sustainably erupt with the most extreme combat power.

Therefore, Wudang's sword array was completely different from the sword array in his vision, which also led to the latter's cultivation insights being meaningless to himself, and might even lead his own path astray.

Thinking of this, Lin Fan sighed, "Forget it, time and fate!"

"My path, I'll walk it myself!"

Different from the huge emotional fluctuations of the Chan and Jie Sect disciples, the expressions of the Three Pure Ones on the high platform were also different at this moment.

Especially Yuanshi Tianzun.

Looking at Wudang on the arena who was bombarding Xuandu openly and not falling behind, even he could not help but praise, "Third Brother, this disciple of yours is indeed outstanding."

"Whether it is foundation, potential, appearance, or strength, they are all top-tier!"

"Uh, Second Brother is right!"

Opening his mouth, Tongtian Jiaozhu was somewhat unable to react for a moment.

For so many years, when had Yuanshi Tianzun ever praised the disciples of the Jie Sect? Praised the members of the Jie Sect!

The latter had said things like 'beings with scales and armor, wet-born and egg-born' in front of him more than once, every time making him so angry that his three corpses flared up.

But now?

Wudang had actually received praise, and even such praise—it was truly...

"Indeed not bad!"

At this time, Laozi also spoke slowly, "This Wudang perfectly inherited the Sword Dao and Array Dao of the Third Brother, and even created her own Sword Array Dao based on the two; although still somewhat immature, she is indeed full of potential."

"Third Brother also accepted a good disciple."

"If the previous Lin Fan could still be said to be a coincidence, and he himself was only an Inner Disciple."

"Then this Wudang, as a Personal Disciple, indeed has a level."

Hearing this, Tongtian was numb for a moment.

When did his eldest brother and second brother become so easy to talk to?

But after only being stunned for a moment, Tongtian Jiaozhu came back to his senses, laughed, and said, "Eldest Brother, Second Brother, you are over-praising."

"This girl Wudang hasn't fought or grabbed these years, focused on seeking the Dao; having this improvement is also something that makes me extremely gratified."

Under such circumstances, time passed rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed.

The battle between Xuandu and Wudang had entered a white-hot stage, with both sides using various means.

Xuandu even took out many spirit treasures and pills to bless himself.

And Wudang was not to be outdone; although she did not have the blessing of so many powerful pills, the array formations she mastered were not few.

Combined with the sword array technique she developed, her own combat power was also becoming more and more powerful, more and more terrifying.

"Mother Wudang, let's decide the winner in one move!"

Finally, after bombarding each other for more than ten moves, Xuandu looked at Wudang, who was in the array formation not far away, with a solemn expression.

He could see that Wudang at this moment was about the same as himself, basically all means had been used up.

Under such circumstances, there was no need for both sides to continue to persist and fight.

"Good!"

Nodding, Wudang looked at Xuandu, then raised the spirit sword in her hand and said, "Senior Brother Xuandu, then let's decide the winner in one move!"

"Senior Brother, please be careful next."

After speaking, Wudang did not talk nonsense, her left hand began to form hand seals, and she muttered in her mouth, "Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, Nine Palaces gather!"

The next second, light shone brightly.

The array formations existing in the area around Wudang began to merge at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, a large array mixing many array formations appeared under Wudang's feet.

Just at this moment, Wudang stood with her sword and flew into mid-air, her aura rapidly increasing by nearly a hundred times, and she held the sword with both hands and launched an attack fiercely: "Shangqing Sword Skill · One Sword Divides Yin and Yang!" ===== CHAPTER 55 =====
