Chapter 268 The Sword Scripture of Splitting Light

We have all the fantasy/xia novel genres you like. Welcome to visit our site.

The female cultivator was no stranger to him; she was Song Siyu, whom he had saved before. It was indeed an unexpected surprise.

As the other party is a disciple of Master Bai Yan, it shouldn't be a problem to seize one of the tokens if we join forces with him.

However, Zhang Lingyu did not rush forward. If there were other cultivators from the Jade Light Pavilion who had entered this place, Song Siyu would definitely not be able to join forces with him.

One is a fellow disciple, the other is a vassal of a sect; the choice is obvious.

If such a situation were to occur, it would concern one's own destiny, and one would not hesitate to face even the highest authority of one's family.

After a moment's thought, he decided to wait and see.

Coincidentally, the person who fought Song Siyu was one of the East Sea cultivators who had previously attacked her. He wielded the harpoon with great force, blocking all the incoming sword energy.

"If someone hadn't interfered last time, you wouldn't have been able to escape. This time, no one will come to save you!"

The East Sea cultivator grinned lewdly, brandishing his harpoon while secretly forming hand seals. When the time was right, he suddenly shouted, "Canglang Great Handprint!"

In an instant, the moisture inside the pagoda became dense, and even Zhang Lingyu, who was hiding in the shadows, found it hard to breathe. A deep blue handprint condensed behind him and slammed down on the woman.

Holding a long sword, Song Siyu remained calm. She had seen this move before and was able to hold her own against the combined attack of two people. One person was nothing to worry about.

Her swordplay remained largely unchanged; with a slight turn, the Canglang Great Handprint instantly split in two, its attack broken without the slightest pause.

Her beautiful eyes swept to the left, and hundreds more seemingly ordinary sword energies swept over.

There was no other reason than that the cultivator from the East Sea had just finished casting his spell and then disappeared into the area, hoping to catch her off guard. But how could such a small trick fool her, a direct disciple of the Golden Core stage?

"It is the 'Hundred Transformations Dividing Light Sword Scripture'."

Zhang Lingyu had heard from his elder brother Zhang Lingxiao that this sword technique was of the sixth rank and was the fundamental method of the Bai Yan Zhenren lineage. It was said that one sword could create a hundred shadows, a hundred shadows could transform into a thousand lights, a thousand lights could manifest myriad phenomena, and myriad phenomena could return to one order.

What appeared to be over a hundred sword energies was actually just a single sword strike.

However, this method is extremely difficult, so even though Song Siyu is already in the late Foundation Establishment stage, she is only at the Hundred Shadows stage. She will probably have to wait until after she reaches the Golden Core stage to reach the Thousand Lights and Myriad Phenomena stages.

"If I were to cultivate this method, my strength would undoubtedly rise several levels."

Zhang Lingyu felt envious. Although the Azure Lotus Sword Manual he was currently practicing was created by the Azure Lotus True Man of Central Continent and was quite powerful, it was ultimately only a fourth-grade manual.

And it's not even the complete version.

Most importantly, the more you cultivate the Azure Lotus Sword Manual, the more flying swords you need. And to maximize its power, they must be made of the same material and have the same attributes.

He had put in a lot of effort to forge the six Xuan Ting flying swords, and he dared not even think about the thirty-sixth, seventy-twoth, and one hundred and eightth.

However, sword techniques are hard to find. High-level techniques are mostly held by major sects and are generally not passed on to outsiders. Even if they are passed down, they are not something that ordinary disciples can practice.

Over the years, Zhang Lingyu has never given up searching, but unfortunately, none of his efforts have been as successful as the "Azure Lotus Sword Manual." In the future, he will either continue searching or try his luck at the cave dwellings of ancient cultivators.

"We still have to rely on the intelligence system..."

Intelligence is not difficult to obtain; the main problem is that high-level sword techniques are mostly hidden in the caves of Golden Core Peak and Nascent Soul cultivators, which are bound to be fraught with danger, so whether they can be obtained is still unknown.

While he was pondering, the cultivator from the East Sea had already fallen behind. He had blocked the previous hundred or so sword lights, but every time Song Siyu swung her sword, hundreds of sword lights would split off.

Although he managed to hold on for a while thanks to the protection of his robes, the intense consumption of magical power was already taking its toll on him.

Damn it.

Looking at the sword light surging from all directions, the East Sea cultivator's face turned extremely gloomy. He had seen this move before, but at that time he had the support of his senior brother.

Now that he was alone, he was inevitably in a bit of a predicament. At the beginning of the battle, he did think of a way to deal with it, but every sword light was real. The only way to break the deadlock was to deplete the opponent's magic power and then look for an opportunity to fight.

Although Song Siyu was a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, her magical power was no less than that of a peak Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"It's all that damned Spirit Puppet Transformation Box's fault! If my senior brother were here, how could we be in such a sorry state?!" Seeing that he couldn't beat the other person in a one-on-one fight, this person actually blamed everything on that magical artifact.

Despite his complaints, he had long lost his former arrogance. Now that he couldn't win a fight, the only sensible thing to do was to find a way to escape.

But he didn't intend to crush the token; he couldn't let such a rare opportunity go to waste.

So he immediately abandoned Song Siyu, and transformed into a thin stream of water, trying to escape towards the entrance of the pagoda.

"Trying to escape?" Song Siyu frowned slightly. How could she let him escape so easily?

She swiftly unleashed several sword beams, which immediately multiplied into hundreds, and the changes continued unabated, showing a tendency to transform from a hundred shadows into a thousand beams of light.

In an instant, the entire pagoda from the third floor down was filled with sword light, and all the decorations that were not sturdy enough turned to ashes.

As for this cultivator from the East Sea, his robes, which had withstood several sword beams, were now shattered, revealing an inner armor underneath. However, this armor was covered in sword marks and clearly wouldn't last much longer.

As his inner armor shattered, he felt as if he were being torn apart by a thousand knives, each sword strike leaving a faint mark.

The original shimmering water had long since turned into a bloody light.

Fortunately, he possessed profound cultivation and managed to break through the sword light using various methods, flying to the entrance in one fell swoop.

Seeing that he was about to escape, the cultivator from the East Sea was overjoyed and was burning his essence blood to get rid of the pursuers, but he was suddenly stunned.

Suddenly, a man dressed in a blood-red robe appeared at the entrance, smiling at them.

"He must be a demonic cultivator..."

In this urgent situation, he quickly shouted, "Fellow Daoist, the girl behind me is a cultivator from the Jade Light Pavilion, a top-tier cultivator in the immortal path. Please lend me a hand!"

Actually, it's not wrong to call someone "fellow Daoist". Apart from the local cultivators, most of the people in the East Sea are demonic cultivators and traitors to the immortal path who have fled overseas, such as the Heavenly Demon Lord. It can be described as a mixed bag.

In addition to fighting against the sea monsters in order to compete for island resources, there are also constant internal wars, so it is no exaggeration to say that it is a gathering place for demonic cultivators.

Upon hearing this, Song Siyu, who was chasing after him, suddenly stopped. The blood-robed man in front of her not only had an overwhelming aura of blood, but his cultivation level was also difficult to discern.

Although she didn't think the other side would let the East Sea cultivators go, she knew she would inevitably face a major battle.

As expected, the man in the blood-red robe curled his lips and stood in the center of the entrance, seemingly trying to stop them.

To her surprise, a dazzling burst of lightning suddenly erupted from the blood-robed man's body, and in the blink of an eye, six Xuan Ting flying swords appeared behind him one after another.

"Is it him?"
