Chapter 1242 580: The Second Path (Part 3)
Chen Shi, Black Pot, and Zhong Lin faced the sword array of hundreds of Heavenly Soldiers, but this time, without Black Pot's control, their sword array was crooked and chaotic, lacking the formidable murderous aura it once had.
The two men and the dog charged into the array, Black Pot wielding the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler, stood upright and swung the unusually heavy Black Iron Stick, enveloped in black light. The Iron Ruler swung, thunder rumbled, and power surged, sending one Immortal after another flying!
Chen Shi and Zhong Lin charged straight through, Zhong Lin leading the way, knocking down Heavenly Soldiers along the path, shielding Chen Shi from most attacks, and shouted, "Mr. Chen, it's up to you!"
Chen Shi broke through the array, heading straight for the three-legged furnace suppressing the Great Demon.
As he willed it, the sword light surged, Sword Qi like the piercing cold north wind imbued with a chilling murderous intent, heading straight for the chains locking the three-legged furnace!
His mind was as clear as a Bright Mirror, having long realized there was no escape; the only hope of survival was to release another Great Demon!
The Great Demon's power was unimaginably terrifying, likely to bury everyone present in the Demon Refining Well, but there was also a sliver of survival — when the Great Demon escaped the Three Pure Ones Demon Refining Cauldron, Chen Shi and the others would jump into the cauldron!
His mind was at peace, as he unleashed the full force of the Wind Marquis Cen Ci move. With a sound like "zheng," he sliced through the chain with one stroke of his sword!
As he severed this chain, Chen Shi sensed an unspeakably terrifying pressure approaching, instinctively returning the sword to confront it!
One after another, strands of Mixed Yuan Sword Qi flew out from his Sword Box, simultaneously executing the Third Form of the Mixed Yuan Sword Scripture, Lili Cyan Flame.
Lili Cyan Flame, endless tribulation ash.
Upon executing this move, Chen Shi simultaneously mobilized thirty-six strands of Sword Qi, making it the most powerful blow he could unleash!
Above was Sword Qi like Li Fire Green Flame, below was endless tribulation ash; this move's Sword Intent was derived from the owner's epiphany during the first Opening Tribulation!
When Chen Shi performed this move, scenes of countless Immortals turning into tribulation ash in the Li Fire Green Flame instantly flashed before his eyes, intertwined with the Heavenly Dao Seal contained in the Heavenly Mechanism Strategy, allowing him to thoroughly comprehend the Lili Cyan Flame move in that moment!
The power of Sword Qi surged, greeting the approaching Wu Guanyun!
Wu Guanyun was also deploying the Mixed Yuan Sword Scripture, the First Form Earth Qi Cold Greeting.
The different sword moves of the Mixed Yuan Sword Scripture harbor different Dao Intent. The deeper the Dao Intent the harder it is to cultivate.
Wu Guanyun had soaked in it for so long, the understanding of the first move being the most thorough. He had once traveled to the Mortal World, sitting on the vast wasteland, waiting quietly for spring to come, the ice and snow to melt, with Earth Qi carrying the cold deep within the earth outward.
He sat for dozens of years, comprehending Earth Qi Cold Greeting, and sat for dozens more, pondering the logic behind Heaven Inverted Life Killing.
He studied for a hundred years to comprehend this move.
He attacked from the rear, with intent prevailing over the unintentional, while Chen Shi hastily countered, making for a hasty response. As the two's sword moves collided, with Earth Qi, Life and Death, Cold Intent, clashing with Li Fire, Cyan Flame, Tribulation Ash, a sizzling sound arose, and Wu Guanyun's eyes, throat, heart, sword tip, tan area, Guanyun, lower yin, kidneys, wrists, and ankles were each pierced by the sword!
But his cultivation was immeasurably profound; these Sword Qi barely pierced his skin before being thwarted!
Wu Guanyun's expression darkened, looking up to see Chen Shi flipping, spinning in his Sword Qi, clothes fluttering, landing atop a furnace.
"Swish!"
Strands of Sword Qi flew back, falling behind him.
Wu Guanyun exhaled a breath of turbid air; in terms of comprehension of the Mixed Yuan Sword Scripture and the Mixed Yuan Dao Scripture, he was utterly defeated.
