Bird was truly wondrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three attributes contained within its body were very peculiar, boosting the might of both Lin Xuan’s Wind Shadow Sword and Star Extreme Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although their grades had not changed, their quality had improved significantly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, the black sword sheath underwent a tremendous transformation as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides possessing attributes of wind and thunder, it seemed that an attribute of fire was slowly beginning to form inside it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from this, there was a piece of martial arts that particularly intrigued Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Void Spirit Illusion Demon Step, an Earth-grade Martial Arts, known for its speed and agility, was one of the Absolute Skills of the Evil King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth-grade Martial Arts—that was something that could excite Spirit Communication Realm Martial Artists!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the entire Dragon Star Country, there were only a few Earth-grade Martial Arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, it was by using the Void Spirit Illusion Demon Step that the Evil King had evaded pursuit and assassination by formidable enemies time after time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he would have died long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan understood the might of Earth-grade Martial Arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take his Gale Chasing Lightning Sword, for example, it was Earth-grade Martial Arts with formidable power capable of slaying enemies above one’s own level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lin Xuan decided to learn the Void Spirit Illusion Demon Step, replacing the Reverse Dragon Step, but he kept the powerful martial technique of the Reverse Dragon Seven Steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After organizing his gains, he shared some of the treasures with Zhao Xue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you plan to do next?” Zhao Xue asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve come to Dragon Star Country to obtain a spot in the Azure Dragon Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, I’m headed to Desolate Flame City.”“The Azure Dragon Society?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehe, I’m also participating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we meet, you must show some mercy to your sister!” Zhao Xue said coquettishly with a sidelong glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re participating too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you have a spot?” Lin Xuan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It should be almost settled with this return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The participants of the Azure Dragon Society are all unique geniuses, their strength far beyond your imagination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You mustn’t be careless,” Zhao Xue seriously advised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, the two chatted while eating, and before they knew it, the night had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister is leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t miss me!” Zhao Xue whispered in Lin Xuan’s ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she quickly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan also composed himself, preparing for what was to come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With only half a year left until the Azure Dragon Society, he had to use his time wisely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before that, Lin Xuan planned to find some Demon Beasts in the nearby forests to practice his swordsmanship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He mainly wanted to test out the might of the two new sword techniques he had learned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Phantom Sword and the Three Thousand Thunders Move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former was yin and flexible, including Illusion Technique attacks, while the latter was wildly domineering, bold and unrestrained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two sword techniques were poles apart, and each was distinct in its execution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the forest, a thirty-meter-long Phantom Demon Butterfly fluttered its wings, fixating on Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a Demon Beast adept at Illusion Techniques, known for its sly attacks, a challenge for even Spirit Transformation Realm Martial Artists to handle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan intended it as a test for his Phantom Sword technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swinging the longsword, myriad Sword Shadows filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these Sword Qi, some were real, some were fake, intermingled in a way that made them indistinguishable from each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this seemingly chaotic Sword Qi contained an Illusion Array Formation, which often trapped the enemy in Illusions unconsciously, thus allowing for an easy kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword technique could be said to be the Evil King’s signature swordsmanship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ethereal shadow-like sword technique deceived the Phantom Demon Butterfly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its bizarre attacks caused the Phantom Demon Butterfly quite the headache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Phantom Sword’s Qi formed a strange Sword Array, slaying the Phantom Demon Butterfly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Packing away the Demon Crystal from inside the Illusion Demon Butterfly’s body, Lin Xuan again sought out Demon Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he was ready to test the power of the Three Thousand Thunders Move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using his Soul Power, he soon found a beast to his satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Split Rock Turtle, a Demon Beast renowned for its defense, as sturdy as a rock Vajra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that though this Demon Beast was only Seventh Rank, equal-level Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artists could not breach its defenses, and only Spirit Transformation Realm Martial Artists were capable of killing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Split Rock Turtle, the size of a small boat, looked at Lin Xuan with a contemptuous expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It directly dismissed Lin Xuan as it deemed a person in the middle stage of the Spirit Merging Realm was utterly incapable of breaching its defenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That attack, at most, was like a light tickle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan moved swiftly, drawing the Star Extreme Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sword Qi crisscrossed, turning into a sky full of Thunder Shocks, the sound thundering in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sword Light passed by, turning into a surge of Thunder and Lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Split Rock Turtle shrank its whole body, hiding within its hard Turtle Shell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like three thousand bolts of Thunder, the fearsome Sword Light struck the Rock Turtle’s shell, bursting forth a dazzling light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sword strike was too violent; the Turtle Shell unexpectedly received countless Sword Marks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Earth Split Rock Turtle’s body was heavily damaged, with fresh blood streaming out uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, it finally showed a look of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The human before it was too formidable; the power of that last sword strike was perhaps even more terrifying than that of a Spirit Transformation Realm Martial Artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the human had no intention of continuing the assault, which spared it from losing its life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan was very satisfied with the result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both the Illusion Sword and Three Thousand Thunders Move had swordsmanship powers that exceeded his expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously focused on the Wind Emperor’s Sword and the Green Cloud Nine Swords, along with the Secret Manual, Outer Heaven Flying Star, as his trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he had acquired two additional sword techniques, meaning that, for the time being, he had no weaknesses in terms of swordsmanship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of movement techniques, he possessed the newly acquired Earth-grade Martial Arts, Void Spirit Illusion Demon Step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be difficult even for Spirit Transformation Realm Martial Artists to compete with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defensively, he possessed the Silver Thunder Body and the Golden Inner Armor, a combination that could withstand attacks from Spirit Transformation Realm Martial Artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be said that Lin Xuan’s current state was among the very top in the Spirit Merging Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next, I should head to Desolate Flame City,” Lin Xuan summoned Little Gold and hastened toward the direction of Desolate Flame City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Star Strong Country was divided into eight counties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Desolate Flame City was one of the more famous towns within Tianhuang County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exiting the forest, Lin Xuan saw a giant city rising from the plains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark red city walls, resembling millennium-old volcanoes, exuded an aura of antiquity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the city, he found it bustling with people coming and going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young Martial Artists were everywhere, their conversations laced with liveliness and vigor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Xuan walked by, he overheard scraps of conversations suggesting that there was recently a grand meeting concerning young Martial Artists in Desolate Flame City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This accounted for the gathering of so many young Martial Artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this had nothing to do with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came to Desolate Flame City in search of Tie Shou to fulfill a desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Locating the Big Banner Sect was easy; Lin Xuan only needed to look for the building marked by the Iron Blood Banner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, given the status of the Big Banner Sect, it definitely would not be tucked away in a common corner, so Lin Xuan made his way directly to the most bustling district in the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, in the city center, Lin Xuan saw an impressively majestic building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above this building flew a Bronze Flag, with the blood-colored fabric rippling and roaring in the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Halt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the Big Banner Sect’s territory; all unrelated persons, leave immediately!”The gate guard commanded in a cold tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am here to see Lord Iron Hand,” said Lin Xuan as he produced the Big Banner Order, displaying it in front of himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Big Banner Order!” The guard’s pupils contracted sharply, his gaze filled with astonishment as he looked at Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, he respectfully said, “My apologies for our earlier ignorance, young master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please come inside.”The Big Banner Order was no ordinary object within the Big Banner Sect; generally, only high-status elders were authorized to issue it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Lin Xuan’s order was particularly unique, evidently issued personally by Lord Iron Hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a person was certainly not someone they could afford to slight.\u003C\u002Fp>",1500,"2026-06-06T00:46:41.018Z",1,"novelbin.me","a04947878b8640bed177ca602039808b0a9a5600f40cb954769cede30aaa25ad","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-427","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-425",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
