Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2216

[ … words ]

The Tianzi Bureau will completely become the main stage for the Four Great Sects.

Taixu Gate will undoubtedly face difficult steps.

Every step taken faces encirclement by the Four Sects’ heroes.

Even if Mo Hua remained unbeaten in the Tianzi Bureau, it would be to no avail.

The Tianzi Sword Discussion carries too high a weight in the victory.

Taixu Gate’s foundation is too weak, top disciples cannot possibly compete with the Four Great Sects, and the final ranking can never be high.

It seems Taixu Gate is gradually approaching the position of the “Four Great Sects.”

However, as Taixu Gate nears the position of the “Four Great Sects,” Mo Hua’s own goal of “first in sword discussion” becomes increasingly distant.

It’s already so distant that it breeds some “despair” in him.

Mo Hua furrowed his brow.

What he wants is first place in the sword discussion.

Then his opponents must be all the top prodigies in the Qianxue State Boundary.

Causal intuition tells him there must still be a slim chance within this…

However, it now seems the hope to enter the top four in the Dizi Bureau is already quite slim.

And the Tianzi Bureau is simply a “dead end.”

As the situation develops like this, there is simply no real chance of winning.

Mo Hua lay on the desk, feeling impatient and even helpless.

Clearly, his strength is not weak, and he has learned considerable skills, yet he still feels a sense of “helplessness.”

The heavenly secret is obscure, causality is elusive, and the future is difficult to predict.

Mo Hua felt a trace of confusion flitting through his mind, then took out a copper coin, rubbed it in the palm of his hand, and muttered in his heart:

“Master, how exactly… can I save you…”

Yet the copper coin remained calm, without a trace of causal fluctuation.

…

The next day at noon, the sword discussion with Qian Taoist Sect began.

The outer field of Mount of Tao was still crowded with people.

The number of cultivators watching the battle was not less than during the previous sword discussion between Taixu Gate and Daluo Sect.

Previously, the sword discussion between Taixu Gate and Daluo Sect determined whether Taixu Gate could secure the position of “leader of the Eight Gates.”

And today, this sword discussion would determine if Taixu Gate had that slim chance to ascend to the Four Great Sects.

Both sword discussions are equally significant.

The arguments about victory and defeat were incessant.

Most people believed Taixu Gate would inevitably lose.

A few cultivators thought Taixu Gate still had the power to fight.

The core reason was that for Taixu Gate, this was a “castle defense battle.”

Other people’s castle defense battles were at a disadvantage.

But Taixu Gate’s castle defense battle was advantageous.

“Although Mo Hua is annoying, in the castle defense battle, his expertise in formations like reaching the summit is as impactful as the top prodigies of the Four Great Sects.”

“This cannot be denied.”

“Plus, he has a unique ’sword control’ skill…”

“Come on, what kind of ’sword control’ is that?”

“No sword technique, no sword Qi, the only thing being controlled is a sword, and even that is about to self-destruct…”

“What does that have to do with a ’sword’?”

“Is this even worthy of being called ’sword control’? It’s a disgrace.”

“Even if it isn’t called ’sword control,’ at least its power is not trivial, right? Didn’t someone from the Daluo Sect get killed by a single sword?”

“True, that someone indeed got killed by a single sword…”

“Killed by a single sword…”

Due to one sword discussion, Daluo Sect’s Ye Zhiyuan transformed from a renowned Qianxue sword control prodigy into “that someone.”

The crowd may not remember his name, but they clearly remember his “story.”

That is, being “killed by a single sword.”

“Therefore, Taixu Gate still has a fight in this sword discussion.”

“Even if they lose in the end, at least there will be a good show.”

Everyone nodded upon hearing this.

…

And with such anticipation, the sword discussion started.

Attack and defense battle.

Qian Taoist Sect attacks, Taixu Gate defends.

The city wall’s protective formation had already been replaced with Third Grade Gold Stone Formation by the Elders of Mount of Tao to prevent Mo Hua from blowing up the wall again.

Fortunately, the Elders of Mount of Tao had foresight.

Otherwise, Mo Hua really thought about blowing the wall up again, sending Shen Linsu and others to their grave.

The only thing to pay attention to was leaving the life-gate position for the City Lord statue.

If the City Lord statue remains intact while the entire wall is blown up, killing everyone in the process, it would still be Taixu Gate’s win.

Unfortunately, the Elders of Mount of Tao blocked this “unlikely path” in advance.

Mo Hua had no choice but to defend head-on.

But clearly, everyone, including Mo Hua himself to a certain extent, underestimated the power of Shen Linsu, a prodigy with the Qilin bloodline.

Shen Linsu, at Foundation Establishment Peak, with spiritual power abundant as the sea, wore a Taoist robe embroidered with gold on a profound white fabric, his hair black as pitch, complexion like jade, eyes full of purple light, a sword flourishing, purple Qi coming from the east, graceful like a celestial being.

Qian Taoist Sect’s Purple Qi Golden Scale Sword Skill.

This is a top-tier superior sword technique lost for many years.

The reason it was lost is that to cultivate this sword technique requires the ancient Qilin bloodline.

Yet, neither the Shen Family nor the entire Qian Taoist Sect had seen a prodigy with the Qilin blood for several hundred years.

Therefore, this sword technique was sealed for several centuries.

Until this generation of the Shen Family birthed Shen Linsu.

And on the screen projecting the event, all cultivators watching the battle saw for the first time the earnestly fighting Shen Linsu and his swordsmanship, which differs from the ordinary due to his special bloodline.

Purple Qi coming from the east, bloodline transforming into sword.

Auspicious clouds, the Qilin possessing his form.

It appears to be a simple sword strike, yet the purple-gold sword Qi surges fiercely, like a great arch crossing the sun, invincible in its path.

Ouyang Xuan is simply no match.

Linghu Xiao’s Chongxu Sword Qi cannot withstand it either.
