Yellow Skinned Taoist Master

Chapter 165: Let Master Teach You

In an instant, an ultimate radiant sword light bloomed once more.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a chilling white brilliance.

And within this world of chilling white brilliance, the Evil Daoist's body was cleaved in half, incessantly shattering like a broken mirror.

In an instant, an ultimate radiant sword light bloomed once more.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a chilling white brilliance.

And within this world of chilling white brilliance, the Evil Daoist's body was cleaved in half, incessantly shattering like a broken mirror.

The Evil Daoist said coldly: "True and false, you must observe with your heart."

"Do not trust your eyes excessively."

"Your Calamity Eyes can only see through falsehoods, but they cannot see through your own heart."

"If your heart is in turmoil, an existence like Master can slip in and take advantage of the vulnerability.""Have you memorized this?"

Chen Huangpi naturally wouldn't reply to this Evil Daoist.

Because he had already understood that this Evil Daoist was merely agitating his heart, causing him to be influenced and misled.

What so-called true and false.

It was merely his own heart not being resolute enough.

Now that his heart had firmed and steadied.

This Evil Daoist's methods were useless against him.

"Shatter for me!"

Chen Huangpi gave a loud shout, and the surrounding phenomena instantly vanished without a trace.

And not far away, an elderly man wearing a black Daoist robe was looking at him with a gratified expression.

If it wasn't the Evil Daoist, then who else could it be.

The preceding methods had never once found the right target.

And only now did Chen Huangpi see through this Evil Daoist's aura.

Very strong, extremely bizarre.

He simply couldn't distinguish what cultivation realm it was.

It truly lived up to the title of Evil Daoist; it was boundlessly wicked and bizarre.

"Stop putting on an act here!"

Chen Huangpi said viciously: "I have a Master; I don't need you to teach me."

"Huangpi'er, is this how those three Masters of yours taught you?"

The Evil Daoist said faintly: "Ruthless and fierce, excessively relying on power into arrogance, irresolute in will, looking ahead while looking behind. Master is teaching you how to distinguish the true from the false, yet you are not even willing to call Master 'Master' a single time."

"Master is very disappointed."

"Die for me!!!"

Chen Huangpi drew the Void-Piercing Sword and fiercely slashed toward the Evil Daoist.

Yet the latter suddenly appeared before him. Grabbing the sword hilt that Chen Huangpi was holding with one hand, he forcefully pushed it back.

That Void-Piercing Sword, which had just been drawn out, was forcibly forced back in.

Hum...

The Void-Piercing Sword vibrated indignantly.

The Evil Daoist said coldly: "We just finished talking about the eyes, and now your ears have gone deaf? This sword is wailing; from beginning to end, it has been wailing."

"Yet you cannot hear it."

"This sword is not a dead object, but a living being."

"You think too highly of yourself, but you have never once heard its voice."

Chen Huangpi ground his teeth and said: "I can hear it! It is wailing! It is angry!"

"No! That is not its true intention."

The Evil Daoist's figure flashed.

The Void-Piercing Sword was also snatched away by him right on the spot.

Chen Huangpi flew into a furious rage: "Return my sword to me!!!"

The flames of fury in his heart were burning.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

That towering Magic Tree grew fiercely, instantly obscuring the entire sky.

All the branches of the Magic Tree fiercely stretched out.

And then, like sharp swords, they slashed down ferociously toward the Evil Daoist.

Black sword qi subsequently poured down overhead, covering the heavens and earth.

However, the Evil Daoist turned a deaf ear.

Instead, he stroked the Void-Piercing Sword, speaking to himself: "This sword is not a sword of slaughter, but an Dao-protecting sword."

"Slaughtering is for the sake of survival."

"You only heard its wailing, but you couldn't hear its sword intent."

"Let Master tell you how this sword ought to be used!"

Having spoken, the Evil Daoist looked up, his gaze sweeping over the endless sword qi charging at him like a massive black river.

Zheng!!!!

An ultimate, radiant sword light erupted forth.

It was completely different from when Chen Huangpi used the Void-Piercing Sword.

In the hands of the Evil Daoist, this Void-Piercing Sword seemed to have come alive, erupting with incomparably terrifying power.

The sword intent pierced the heavens.

There was no so-called 'preferring to break than bend,' only a pure sword light.

A pure sword intent!

Nothing it could not cut; all things could be severed.

Chen Huangpi only saw his own boundless sword qi being cleaved open before that sword light. The killing intent within the sword qi was utterly eradicated without a trace; instead, an extremely smooth, immensely resolute sword intent erupted from within that sword light.

That was the Void-Piercing Sword's sword intent.

"Slaughtering to survive..."

Chen Huangpi murmured: "I thought using this sword to kill everyone who wanted to kill me was slaughtering to survive. I didn't expect I was wrong. I neglected its voice. It does not kill just for the sake of killing; from beginning to end, it was always protecting me."

Any method involving slaughter.

Any power aiming to kill Chen Huangpi.

This sword could sever and extinguish it all.

Therefore, even though the sword qi Chen Huangpi slashed out was powerful and terrifying.

Even if a Calamity came, it would be slain by this sword qi.

But the Void-Piercing Sword was an Dao-protecting sword. If its sword light was purely used to strike, it would perish together with that sword qi, because the sword body was essentially transformed from a Calamity Eye. The Calamity Eye was like a sluice gate, restricting the power of the sword shadow.

And now, the Evil Daoist had demonstrated to Chen Huangpi the true method of utilizing the Void-Piercing Sword.

A mere strand of sword light was sufficient to sever and extinguish the killing intent within any mystic art.

There was fundamentally no need to clash head-on.

Realizing this, Chen Huangpi's heart stirred, and he immediately formed a Daoist seal.

"Void-Piercing! Return!"

His will was incredibly firm.

In his heart, he was similarly calling out to the Void-Piercing Sword's sword intent.

This sword was the Dao-protecting sword gifted to him by Yi Qingzhou.

Naturally, he could call it back.

Hum...

That Void-Piercing Sword continuously vibrated.

It responded to Chen Huangpi's call, because Chen Huangpi had finally heard its voice.

Moreover, even more sword light erupted from its sword body.

Slashing straight toward that Evil Daoist.

"Return to you, return to you."

The Evil Daoist released the Void-Piercing Sword, because this sword was not his, but Chen Huangpi's.

In other words, this sword and Chen Huangpi were now of one mind, intimately connected.

If the Evil Daoist used it again, not only would the sword not obey his will, he would reversely be suppressed by this sword.

With a swish.

A streak of sword light vanished behind Chen Huangpi's back.

The Void-Piercing Sword issued a delighted, unhindered sword hum.

"Evil Daoist, whatever other methods you have left, feel free to use them all!"

Chen Huangpi sneered: "I already know how to use the Void-Piercing Sword. If you want to seize my flesh and blood, you'll first have to ask my sword if it agrees."

"Huangpi'er, no need to be impatient."

The Evil Daoist smiled faintly, saying: "Your flesh and blood, Master naturally will obtain, but I'm not in a hurry for this brief moment. You will eventually obediently hand your flesh and blood over to Master yourself."

"The reason Master came to see you was actually to help you."

"Do you think you have such good intentions?"

Chen Huangpi sneered, "When I was trapped in Xuzhou City, why didn't you come out to help me?"

"Now that I killed Song Yuzhang, you hop out instead."

"Master naturally has Master's own considerations."

The Evil Daoist said softly: "There are millions of people in Xuzhou City. By saving them, you saved them. But by saving them, you also made a choice. Do you know what this signifies?"

Chen Huangpi remained silent, saying nothing.

"This mutated heaven and earth have learned of your existence."

"A New Heaven replaces the Old Heaven. When the Yellow Heaven manifests in the world, the Azure Heaven will cease to exist entirely."

"I already know everything you're saying."

Chen Huangpi gritted his teeth and said, "If you ran all the way over here especially just to say these things to me, then it's best you shut your mouth."

This Evil Daoist, he didn't know how to kill him.

It was as if, although he was formed from someone else's memory of Master, he had also been tainted by some of Master's might.

Fortunately, although this Evil Daoist's methods were grotesque and bizarre.

He similarly couldn't do anything to Chen Huangpi.

Otherwise, how could he possibly be here wasting his breath babbling?

With this thought, Chen Huangpi simply prepared to leave.

But right at this moment.

The Evil Daoist suddenly spoke: "Huangpi'er, do you wish to save the Azure Heaven?"

"What did you say?"

Chen Huangpi turned his head, his expression changing drastically: "You have a way to save the Azure Heaven?"

The Azure Heaven had died.

And his Master united his Dao with the dead Azure Heaven.

Once the Yellow Heaven manifested in the world, the new replacing the old, the Azure Heaven naturally would disappear.

And Master, who had united his Dao with the Azure Heaven, would similarly vanish.

At this point in affairs.

Chen Huangpi naturally also knew that the reason his Master went mad was similarly due to this reason.

The Azure Heaven had died, turning into an evil spirit.

Master was influenced by it, which was why he went mad.

The Evil Daoist pointed at Xuzhou City, stating: "There are millions of commoners in this city. However, this is the outside world, while the Hundred Thousand Mountains is the heaven and earth of the old era. If you can move this Xuzhou City into the old era's heaven and earth, it will give birth to changes far beyond your expectations."

Chen Huangpi's expression flickered with a myriad of changes.

However, he still shook his head, saying: "I don't trust you. Furthermore, there are numerous evil spirits in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. If I move a city holding millions of people into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, how will these people survive?"

"Besides, I can't do it."

Xuzhou City was too massive.

Chen Huangpi didn't possess the capability to move mountains and fill seas.

The Evil Daoist laughed, saying: "There is already no deity protecting this city. The human qi in so many mortals is incredibly vigorous and exuberant; it's as glaringly obvious as a bonfire in the dark night. If you do nothing, they actually won't be able to survive."

Chen Huangpi diverted his eyes and said, "The Da Kang Emperor will send new deities to protect them."

The Evil Daoist's expression instantly turned cold: "Wavering when doing things, your will is not firm. If you aren't going to save them, then you shouldn't have saved them from the very beginning. To save them and then ignore them, what kind of logic is that?"

"Deities feed on human qi."

"After killing Song Yuzhang, you just patted your butt and left. Let's assume these mortals encounter good luck, and immediately a deity comes over to protect them. But in the end, what difference is there compared to before?"

"Sitting back and watching the same events repeat—is this how you handle matters?"

"You..."

Chen Huangpi was scolded by the Evil Daoist into speechlessness.

There were many rationalities in his heart.

Yet at this moment, he could not bring out a single sentence to retort the Evil Daoist.

"From start to finish, have you ever carried a single matter through to the absolute end?"

The Evil Daoist said indifferently: "They cannot teach you, so Master will teach you. Since this city has been slain by you, it is now an Evil Spirit City. You just need to move it to the outskirts of Mount Yuqiong; that is providing them a true path of survival."

No evil spirit dared approach within a hundred miles of Mount Yuqiong.

That place was indeed safe.

Chen Huangpi knew this method was good.

But exactly how to move away this Xuzhou City was a massive problem.

Moreover, could the Evil Daoist's words truly be trusted?

This Evil Daoist wanted to eat him from the very beginning. For him to suddenly pop out, could he truly have grown a heart filled with kindness and compassion out of nowhere?

"Do you still remember what Master was doing the very first time you met Master?"

"Fishing..."

Chen Huangpi's pupils drastically contracted: "Hold on, the Fox Mountain God's memory didn't contain this! How did you know?"
