Chereads / Swordsmanship's Number One Immortal / Chapter 311 - Chapter 312: The Cause

Chapter 311 - Chapter 312: The Cause

A sword soared across the sky, with a hundred zhang of sword qi as vast and desolate as the night.

The sword's momentum was like lightning, sharp enough to split mountains and sever rivers.

It contained a mysterious Dao rhythm, such that when this sword was unleashed, it created an overwhelming force that shook people's hearts, as if it could divide heaven and earth, distinguishing between clarity and turbidity.

Boom!

On the Qinglan River, the surging waves were crushed by the unmatched power of the sword qi. From a distance, it seemed as if a large portion of the river's surface had collapsed violently like foam.

In the void, when the sword qi flashed past, it left behind a terrifying crack.

The people on the boat were stung by their eyes, all overwhelmed with shock.

Shifeng, who was about to turn around and leave on his crane, suddenly narrowed his pupils.

Clang!

Behind him, a bright and frost-like spirit sword pierced through the air, bringing forth countless sword shadows and slashing angrily.

This sword was like an ice glacier descending from the sky, with a frigid stream pouring down and its sharpness illuminating the universe.

Boom!

The two sword qi clashed in the void, and the released power competed against each other, causing the river surface and the void to suddenly wail in agony.

As the bursting airflow swept through, the sword qi unleashed by Su Yi was like an ice pick breaking open a glacier, unstoppable, rushing towards Shifeng all the way, creating a sky full of light rain.

That scene made a hint of astonishment flash in Shifeng's eyes.

This child's swordsmanship is incredibly powerful!

He waved his sleeve.

A brightly shining Dao sword spun in the void, creating a snowy white and round sword curtain, blocking in front.

Dang!!

Su Yi's sword fiercely struck the round sword curtain, and when the two collided, they unleashed a sky full of dazzling sword qi torrents.

Visible to the naked eye, Su Yi's sword shattered inch by inch.

But at the same time, the round sword curtain also appeared cracks under the intense tremors.

Until the end, both the sword qi and the sword curtain exploded with a thunderous sound, turning into a torrential rain that swept through, tearing the nearby river surface apart with thousands of shocking cracks.

The old turtle had already sensed the danger and kept his distance. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Lord Su Yi's sword is unparalleled!"

He didn't hide his admiration.

On the distant boat, everyone was stunned.

The might of a single sword forced even Shifeng, a land-immortal-like figure, to be unable to leave safely and had to wield his sword to resolve the situation!

Swish!

Without waiting for everyone to react, Su Yi had already taken a step in the air and charged towards Shifeng.

His green robe fluttered, and his slender figure was surrounded by Dao rhythms. It was as if he was a banished immortal flying across the river surface, slashing another sword towards Shifeng.

"Hmph!"

A coldness flickered between Shifeng's brows. He stood up from the Flame Feathers Crane, grasping the spirit sword in his hand, and his aura spread out like a divine rainbow soaring into the sky.

With his left hand behind his back and his right hand wielding the sword, he exclaimed, "Go!"

Boom~~~

Thousands of water currents suddenly surged from under his feet in the Qinglan River, resembling agile water dragons ascending into the sky, roaring alongside Shifeng's sword.

Controlling the power of the world's water with a single sword!

Such power was so immense that it could make martial artists despair.

Because this sword manipulated the power of Dao rhythms, it possessed the might of "Water-Style Sword Intent," which was incomparable to ordinary techniques.

Even the sword intent of a top-grade Earth-level was enough to easily kill those of the same realm who had not comprehended sword intent!

Even characters like Li Changning wouldn't dare to resist the might of this sword.

Boom!

The sword slashed by Su Yi was directly shattered.

But Shifeng's sword, with its unrelenting momentum, enveloped Su Yi like a myriad of surging water dragons, sweeping towards him with an overwhelming force.

Seeing this, Su Yi didn't dodge or evade. His figure was surrounded by strands of black spiritual light, and his forward speed suddenly increased significantly.

He became like a black lightning bolt, flashing through the void.

Suddenly, a spectacle appeared in the sight of everyone present:

The sword intent formed by the thousands of water currents, like a canvas, was torn apart by that flash of black lightning, crumbling and decaying!

Splash~~

Countless water currents splashed and dispersed, dissolving the radiant glow.

Meanwhile, Su Yi's figure had abruptly arrived within ten zhang of Shifeng. With his fingers as sharp as a sword, he executed the move "Splitting Mountains and Seas."

"Hmm?"

Shifeng's expression changed slightly. Even he hadn't expected that his sword would be easily broken by Su Yi.

This took him by surprise!

At this moment, seeing Su Yi wielding his sword and approaching, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He chanted a mantra with his lips:

"Break!"

A surging and overwhelming aura erupted from Shifeng as he swung his sword fiercely.

A collision of earth-shaking proportions occurred, and the terrifying combat power erupted and spread between the two, causing the nearby river surface to churn and water currents to splash in all directions.

The people on the boat felt as if the heavens and earth had violently trembled. Each of them staggered, almost being thrown off their feet.

Shouts of astonishment filled the air, and chaos ensued.

In the distance, the figures of Shifeng and Su Yi retreated several dozen zhang in the void, creating some distance between them.

A draw!

But when they realized that Su Yi was merely a fourth-level Grandmaster and unarmed, yet he could stand on equal footing with Shifeng, a renowned immortal of the land, who wouldn't be amazed?

"So, you've cultivated the Water-Style Spiritual Dao Light! You've actually refined such profound principles at the Grandmaster realm?" Shifeng's face displayed astonishment and disbelief, no longer as calm as before.

The Grandmaster realm, refining the Five Viscera Divine Furnace. Throughout history, how many individuals could refine spiritual Dao light in this mundane realm?

At this moment, Shifeng finally understood why Su Yi's sword just now could easily break his own sword imbued with the "Water-Style Sword Intent."

Those who possessed the "Water-Style Spiritual Dao Light" were no different from those who controlled the Water-Style Dao rhythms. Naturally, they were not afraid of the impact of the Water-Style Sword Intent!

"You are indeed a usurper," Su Yi revealed a hint of realization on his face.

Shifeng's cultivation was far beyond comparison with Li Changning. Having a complete cultivation inheritance and the ability to master a top-grade Earth-level sword intent, as well as recognizing the "Water-Style Spiritual Dao Light," all of this was enough to prove that Shifeng was not a practitioner of the Cangqing Continent.

"Laughable, don't you think you resemble more of a usurper?" Shifeng's gaze flickered, his expression becoming terrifyingly grim. "If we were in a different world, individuals like you, who can refine such profound principles at the Grandmaster realm, would probably be extremely rare, right?"

"Heh." Su Yi could easily discern that this guy was testing him.

He couldn't be bothered with idle talk and launched a sudden attack.

Clang!

This time, Su Yi brandished the Xuanwu Sword, his deep eyes filled with killing intent.

He was quite curious about the usurper who occupied Shifeng's body— who they were, where they came from, and whether their heritage held anything that interested him.

The sword hummed like the tide, and Su Yi's aura transformed accordingly, becoming even more fierce and unstoppable, capable of breaking through any defense.

Shifeng's expression turned solemn.

He could see that Su Yi intended to go all out.

But at this moment, he didn't want to fight Su Yi to the death.

"Hmph!"

Just as Shifeng was about to retreat, a cryptic sound echoed through his ears. In that instant, his entire body stiffened as if an ancient towering Sword Mountain suppressed his divine soul. The unrivaled power caused intense pain in his soul.

"This is bad!"

Shifeng's face drastically changed as he sensed the danger.

In that split second, he let out a roar and unleashed a forbidden technique. His Qi and blood surged as if burning, forcibly blocking the attack from within his divine soul.

Swish!

His figure flickered, disappearing from the back of the Flame Feather Crane.

Almost at the same time, a sword aura as dark as night slashed down. The majestic Flame Feather Crane couldn't even react before its body was split in half, blood splattering into the void.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Shifeng broke out in a cold sweat. If he hadn't resisted the attack from his divine soul in time, his fate would have been no different from that of the Flame Feather Crane!

Swish!

A burst of sword aura cut through the air as Su Yi once again launched his attack without wasting any words.

Seeing this, Shifeng didn't dare to hesitate. He crushed a peculiar golden jade talisman in his hand.

Bang!

A brilliant golden mist enveloped his figure.

"Su Yi, I will make you witness the true extent of my abilities!"

A furious shout filled with boundless anger reverberated, shaking the heavens and earth.

And Shifeng's figure vanished into thin air within that golden radiance.

"I didn't expect this guy to have such a mysterious 'Escape Talisman'..." Su Yi sighed lightly.

A narrow miss, Shifeng managed to escape, leaving a sense of regret.

The power of Escape Talismans varies depending on the material, the technique used to refine the talisman, and the realm of the cultivator who crafted it.

The Escape Talisman Shifeng used to flee was clearly not an ordinary item.

This was the strength of a usurper.

The secret techniques, power, treasures, and even the profound mysteries of cultivation that they possessed were far beyond comparison with the practitioners of the Cangqing Continent.

If it had been Li Changning in that battle, he would have been defeated long ago.

The vast and mighty Qinglan River gradually returned to its former state. The people on the ships were still in shock, their faces filled with awe.

In that battle just now, sword aura soared and shook the heavens and earth. The scenes were unimaginable, resembling a battle between gods and immortals!

What surprised people even more was that Shifeng, the vice sect master of the Hidden Dragon Sword Sect, a transcendent figure among the immortals, ended up fleeing in a sorry state at the hands of Su Yi.

Even the Flame Feather Crane that he rode was slain!

If news of this battle were to spread, it would surely shake the world, and Shifeng's reputation would suffer a heavy blow.

"Thank you, Lord Su Yi, for intervening and defeating Shifeng. You saved my life at the critical moment!" A massive figure, resembling a mountain, emerged from the rolling waves in the distance. It was an old turtle that extended its colossal forelimbs, akin to stone pillars, and bowed in gratitude to Su Yi.

Its eyes, as large as small lakes, were filled with tears of gratitude and genuine adoration.

Clang!

Su Yi sheathed his sword and calmly asked, "Tell me, why did you step forward to help me earlier?"

The old turtle dared not conceal anything and hurriedly replied, "Lord Su Yi, you may not know, but some time ago, I heard several fellow cultivators discussing your battle under the Great Cang River, where you severed the Wuhuan Water Lord and crushed the Nine-Curve City. I greatly admired your invincible prowess. Later, I had the honor of meeting Tao Qingshan, the Lord Tao Shan, and he spoke of your unparalleled brilliance. I have longed for such greatness in my heart..."

The old turtle rambled on, expressing admiration and reverence in his words.

Finally, Su Yi understood.

Tao Qingshan, who guarded the Pure Yang Fire Peach Tree for King Ge Changling of the Swallowing Sea, had been "enlightened" by him, so naturally, he would praise him without reservation.

After learning about this, the old turtle probably wanted to receive his "enlightenment" one day, just like Tao Qingshan.
