My Master Knows It All

So, Xia Congyun had broken through.

And at this time, the opponent could have disrupted her breakthrough.

Although Xia Congyun, after being disrupted, could still break through and still become a being of Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

After all, the shadow of the tenth Golden Pill turned into a phenomenon. Naturally, she would become a person at Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

But the enlightenment gained from a breakthrough during combat meant being much stronger than being disrupted and trying to break through again!

Such enlightenment could even influence Xia Congyun's cultivation afterward.

It can even be said that such a breakthrough during battle is somewhat akin to enlightenment, just not as intense.

If someone's enlightenment was disrupted, it could even lead to a deadly feud, which shows how precious this opportunity for breakthrough and enlightenment during battle is.

Cao Zhen could have disrupted Xia Congyun, and no one could have said anything. After all, they were not from the same sect, but individuals from different regions sparing. With no obligation to each other, why should I wait for your breakthrough? Isn't that just making trouble for myself?

However, Cao Zhen did not make a move but kept waiting; he was accommodating Xia Congyun.

Finally, Xia Congyun's aura finally stopped climbing, and the tenth phenomenon Golden Pill behind her appeared half as solid as the other phenomenons.

She looked up at Cao Zhen with a hint of regret on her face and shook her head gently, "Forget it, let's not fight anymore."

"Not fight?" Cao Zhen was full of puzzlement, "Why stop fighting now?"

Xia Congyun simply said, "I have already condensed half a phenomenon Golden Elixir. I'm no longer just at Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills. I won't take advantage of you, so I won't fight."

Cao Zhen laughed, "You have gathered such strong battle intent, yet you decide to stop fighting just like that. Don't you think it's a pity?

And, I haven't had my fill yet."

Speaking, Cao Zhen turned to his disciple Duo Duo and said, "Previously, my disciple mentioned she had yet to demonstrate one of her sword moves. You might be curious about that move too. Let me show you that sword move. You'd best put all your effort into it; otherwise, you might actually die from this sword."

Since he had already made a move, he intended to thoroughly intimidate everyone, letting the people of the Eastern Border understand the strength of those from the Eastern Wasteland and completely dissuade those from the Main War Sect.

Now was the time to show off his skills.

Xia Congyun's eyes hardened upon hearing this. She had witnessed Duo Duo fighting someone, also hearing about that particular sword.

Now Cao Zhen wanted to use that move, even advising her to give her all; otherwise, she might die from it.

Since when had she needed such a reminder from others?

How disrespectful of him!

And he dares to remind her like this after her breakthrough!

A vast war intent surged within Xia Congyun, and the aura that had just calmed began to climb anew.

Cao Zhen also picked up the sword in his hand and turned to Duo Duo, saying, "The swordsmanship your third brother taught you is not as authentic as this. This is the true form of that sword."

Many of his divine skills had been gained vicariously through his disciples, but this Heavenly Illusion Sword Technique was not one of them, mainly because his Sword Intent was entirely different from that of Xiang Zi Yu.

His Sword Intent was that of the Heaven Illusion Sword Lord, whereas Zi Yu's was just a modified version.

Hearing this, Duo Duo concentrated her spirit and looked towards Cao Zhen.

The expressions of many around them changed slightly.

Cao Zhen intended to demonstrate the swordsmanship to Duo Duo, a Nine Abnormal Phenomemon Golden Pills teaching sword technique to a Perfect Completion Golden Core expert?

Remembering the days he had spent with Cao Zhen and others, Yang Yudong suddenly had a thought: Could Cao Zhen really be the master of Duo Duo and Zhu Peng?

What kind of swordsmanship would it be?

Among the gazes of the crowd, Cao Zhen suddenly raised his longsword, while Xia Congyun's aura had already climbed to its peak, reaching a level where it could not be contained!

In the next moment, Xia Congyun swung her sword at Cao Zhen!

Instantly, boundless Sword Energy surged forth, cutting a river of swords across the sky, from which roars of beasts echoed.

The river formed from nine ferocious beasts howling together.

Xia Congyun had swung once, but in the void, there appeared nine blades, each like a supreme beast capable of annihilating an Immortal Sect.

Each blade seemed capable of splitting mountains and severing the sun and moon!

Each blade was filled with the most primal, terrifying aura of wildness!

The surrounding void in that instant seemed utterly unable to withstand this terrifying aura and cracked like a dropped Copper Mirror.

Yang Yudong was utterly shocked. This blade was almost as powerful as his full-strength strike.

Xia Congyun was almost comparable to him?

But he was already at Perfect Completion Golden Core, whereas Xia Congyun had only condensed the tenth phenomenon Golden Pill, which wasn't even fully solidified or fused yet.

A freak, indeed a freak!

As he looked on in shock, Cao Zhen's figure suddenly soared into the air, following with a thrust of his sword.

In that instant, it seemed like a hundred Cao Zhens appeared in the sky, each swinging simultaneously.

A hundred swords thrust out, each gathering unmatched Sword Intent and abundant ethereal nuances.

At a glance, these hundred swords seemed entirely different, as if a hundred peerless swordsmen were unleashing their strongest strike, yet these hundred shadows were incredibly illusory.

It faintly felt like not a hundred people were performing the swordsmanship, but just one.

It was as if these hundred swords fused into one sword!

Indeed, the crowd felt that it was not a hundred swords in the void but a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand ordinary folks toiling away. Some were tilling the land, others forging iron, others feeding horses.

Yet, paradoxically, it felt not like countless ordinary people working but rather supreme beings at work, wielding picks cutting through mountains, the blacksmiths creating divine weapons...

Despite being one sword, it gave a completely different sensation to everyone.
