Chapter 263 The Master of Tongtian? A Clash of the Great Dao of the Sword!
Everything felt so real.
Even Zhao Gongming was filled with boundless sorrow, and the next moment, a sword light suddenly appeared and severed the giant hand!
"Master?"
Looking at the Tongtian Sect Leader descending from the sky, Zhao Gongming showed an incredulous expression. The other party's Shangqing Origin was too real, as if the real Tongtian Sect Leader had descended here!
"Buzz—"
With the arrival of the Tongtian Sect Leader, the surrounding scenery changed once again, and a forest of swords suddenly appeared!
"You can even conjure something like this here?"
Feeling the rhythm of the Great Dao of Swords surging within the Sword Forest, Zhao Gongming was slightly startled.
On Jin'ao Island, there is an ancient forbidden area called "Sword Tomb".
This place is where Tongtian, the leader of the Jie Sect, once attained enlightenment. The fierce sword energy between heaven and earth has endured countless tribulations and solidified into a sword forest stretching for hundreds of millions of miles. Each stone sword is hundreds of millions of feet tall, and its blade is engraved with obscure and difficult-to-understand Dao patterns, which are Tongtian's insights into the Dao of swordsmanship when he was young.
Standing at the entrance to the Sword Tomb, Zhao Gongming gazed at the majestic forest of swords, a surge of indescribable emotion welling up within him.
Above the Jian family, the Tongtian Sect Leader calmly looked at him. Just by standing there, Zhao Gongming felt unprecedented pressure.
That was the sword aura of Tongtian, the leader of the Jie Sect, who could fight four saints single-handedly. It was like the sky collapsing, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
"Master—are you going to attack me?"
Zhao Gongming murmured softly, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
Since his transmigration, he has held the Tongtian Sect Master in the highest esteem. In his heart, his master is the most likely person to attain enlightenment besides Hongjun, and the pillar of the Jie Sect's myriad immortals.
Unexpectedly, today he will be fighting against his former master!
"I've wanted to try it for a long time."
Zhao Gongming took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He made a grasping motion with his right hand, and the Hunyuan Qiushui Sword materialized from the void.
In reality, if he were to discuss Dao with the Tongtian Sect Master, both sides would hold back out of consideration for face. But right now, he can fight to his heart's content.
He had long wanted to test his skills against this being who single-handedly fought against four other saints among the Heavenly Dao Saints!
"Koumei, do you know the way of the sword?"
But at that moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader suddenly spoke, his voice like the sound of the Great Dao, echoing in the void.
How can it be so real? It's as if Master himself has come here!
Zhao Gongming was startled again. After a moment of contemplation, he replied, "The sword is the king of all weapons, always advancing without hesitation. The way of the sword is to carry the Dao with the sword and to prove the Dao with the sword. I have been cultivating the sword for a whole Huiyuan, and only now have I begun to grasp the basics."
"Just a glimpse into the basics?"
The Master of the Heavens chuckled lightly: "Then let me see just how deep your 'knowledge' really is."
Before he finished speaking, a Qingping Sword appeared in the hand of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
It was an extremely simple sword, its blade a vibrant green, like a newly sprouting bud or the first stirrings of the Great Dao. It had no dazzling sword light, no astonishing aura, yet Zhao Gongming felt an unprecedented pressure bearing down on him.
This is the sword of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
It may seem ordinary, but in reality, he has cultivated the way of the sword to the highest level of returning to simplicity.
"Zheng—"
'
Without further ado, the two unleashed two clear sword cries that resounded throughout the universe, shattering billions of miles of void.
Amidst the crisscrossing sword energy, countless stars turned to dust, and endless Daoist principles reverberated within the sword intent, emitting mournful howls. The Yin and Yang energies were severed, the cycle of cause and effect was cut off, and the Five Elements River was cleaved open!
This is the purest form of swordsmanship.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's swordplay was effortless and natural, each strike seemingly a dialogue with heaven and earth, resonating with the Great Dao. What appeared casual was in fact a manifestation of the Dao itself.
Zhao Gongming's sword is fierce and domineering, unstoppable, and its sword intent carries an indomitable spirit, an obstinacy, and a determination to move forward even if it means being shattered to pieces. This is also his current state of mind. Knowing that he is in a terrifying vortex, he still wants to cut through the vortex to see the darkness and scheming behind it!
one move.
Ten moves.
One hundred tricks.
A thousand moves.
Only two sword lights remained in the void, constantly intersecting.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's Qingping Sword was like a gentle spring breeze and nourishing rain, each strike perfectly timed and unbiased. Zhao Gongming's Hunyuan Qiushui Sword was like a raging storm, one strike after another, relentless and unending.
The two had completely different sword styles, yet they collided and created the most dazzling sparks in this void.
It was another earth-shattering collision.
The two holy swords crossed paths, their sword energy spreading outwards, completely shredding the void within a radius of billions of miles.
The two men simultaneously took three steps back, facing each other from a distance.
The next moment, Zhao Gongming's aura suddenly surged!
The Primordial Autumn Water Sword hovered before him, and mysterious patterns began to flow across its blade. These were traces of the Dao, manifestations of the Great Dao.
"The Way of the Sword!"
"The Three Thousand Rules!"
Zhao Gongming let out a low shout, and in an instant, a long river of three thousand laws appeared behind him, each law resonating with the way of the sword.
"Buzz"
The aura of the Tongtian Sect Leader also suddenly surged, and a sword intent powerful enough to destroy the heavens and the earth rose from his body, causing the entire void to tremble. The four immortal swords, namely the Zhuxian Sword, the Luxian Sword, the Xianxian Sword, and the Juexian Sword, had somehow surrounded him. Although the sword formation had not yet been deployed, the killing aura had already caused white marks to appear on Zhao Gongming's body.
"They can even conjure up the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation?"
Zhao Gongming secretly marveled at the wonder of this illusionary formation and praised the immense power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
You must know that his physical body is currently at the second level of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, and even the chaotic energy cannot harm him in the slightest. However, the Zhuxian Sword Formation has almost injured his physical body before it has even been deployed. If it is deployed, its power will be even more terrifying!
This is the Tongtian Sect Leader who fought against four saints single-handedly!
"Zheng Yi"
As the crisp sound of a sword rang out, the Tongtian Sect Leader was the first to draw his sword. In an instant, the world lost its color, and endless sword energy surged toward Zhao Gongming from all directions. Each sword energy contained the essence of the Tongtian Sword Dao, which was the embodiment of the great Dao being simple. The seemingly simple sword energy could cut through everything in the world!
Zhao Gongming dared not be negligent. He fully activated the Great Dao of the Sword and the Thirty-Six Heavens. The Three Thousand Laws roared behind him, each law providing him with power. Every breath he took seemed to devour the heavens and earth, and every sword strike he made carried the might of the heavens.
"cut!"
Zhao Gongming roared, and the Hunyuan Qiushui Sword in his hand transformed into a gigantic sword hundreds of millions of feet long, slashing towards the Tongtian Sect Leader.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the Qingping Sword flew out to meet it. At the same time, four immortal swords flew out and merged with the Qingping Sword, the five swords becoming one, and the sword intent soared to the heavens!
"The Way of the Sword Reaches the Heavens, One Sword Reigns Supreme."
boom-
Two world-destroying forces collided, and with the roar of the sword, the earth, fire, wind, and water were all thrown out. The void within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles completely collapsed, and this area of the Sword Clan was completely turned into chaos!
