Chapter 314 Kongming Cave Heaven_2
Tie Dan looked at her,
"Is it the Sword Sect or the Dragon Temple? Am I afraid of him?"
Ning Lingshuang was speechless, suddenly feeling that what he said made sense.
"In any case, I'll trouble you, Senior Sister, to take care of her."
Tie Dan felt uncomfortable all over seeing Jian Jia's hesitant, tearful look, and he always felt that her gaze was off, as if she were drugged, unable to control herself, about to pounce on him, so he was unwilling to get closer.
Since he found an excuse, he quickly withdrew, starting a killing spree to relieve himself, otherwise, he'd really feel uneasy all over.
So Tie Dan burrowed into the ground, following Ning Lingshuang's instructions, investigating the Zhongxuan Sect's leader, and finally found the location of the Crane Temple.
Indeed, being within this mountain, deep in the clouds, one could not know its place.
In this mountain, clouds and mist entwined, enveloped in immortal mist, restrained and profound, clearly protected by an Ancient Immortal Formation, making the Crane Temple extremely hidden, requiring passage through two gorges to see the Grotto Heaven.
It was hard enough to find the entrance; not to mention Ning Lingshuang faced rejection, even when Tie Dan sent an invitation for a meeting, the other party was indifferent, merely saying the Mountain Man didn't meet outsiders, closing the door to ignore.
"Well, if you don't appreciate kindness, I won't be polite either." Tie Dan pinched his fingers to form a seal and cast a grand technique,
"Sweet Spring Sword Rain."
"Swoosh!"
Heavenly Breath Sword Qi surged out from the Divine Court, a green sword stream shot into the sky, like a fountain of flowing pulp, soaring into the Sky Dome, spraying over four zhang high, then bursting like fireworks into thousands of sword tip raindrops, akin to a willow tree rising from the ground, with the clear wind and Heavenly Breath, spreading the willow leaves from the branches, flowing along the Mountain Gate Array Qi Veins, scattering the billowing willow wind into the array.
In the blink of an eye, the entire valley transformed into a field of blue and green, with swirling, howling, and cascading Sword Wind and Sword Rain engulfing, filling the entire Mountain Guarding Array with infinite sword energy.
Timely sweet rain descends, nourishing all things, abundant above, scarce below, thus pronounced as heavenly nectar descending, the earth producing sweet springs.
This move is the Kaiyang Sword Inheritance, the Secret Method of Breaking Formation, Sweet Spring Sword Rain.
Indeed, breaking the formation.
Transforming the body into a sword, the sword into energy, merging with heaven and earth, channeling lifelong sword power into the Heavenly Breath and Earth Vein, following the Qi flow, tracking the cycle of Qi Flow, permeating the entire array's nodes, then suddenly causing the Sword Wind to reverse flow, sword energy to backtrack, unleashing tens of thousands of swords to break the core. Destroying the array in one stroke!
"Break!"
"Swish swish swish!"
"Boom boom boom!"
"Crack crack crack!"
This triggered an explosion of willow leaf Sword Rain across the sky, and the clouds and mist surrounding the entire mountain were instantly slashed by endless sword energy, amidst the Qi eruption sound from afar to near, the protective mountain formation eyes set outside the Crane Temple, the magic jade talismans were completely severed by the sword energy, shattering all over the ground.
Well, that's broken. Quite simple actually.
Of course, it's not really simple, this move has very high requirements on the Sword Immortal's own cultivation, control of sword energy, and the proficiency of array calculations.
Moreover, mainly because this formation is simple.
After all, it's an 'Ancient' Immortal Formation, long outdated, and no one is holding the array in the middle, entirely relying on the flow of the Earth Vein to set it up, with no one coming out to interfere, allowing Tie Dan to act at will, making it easy to break.
Then Tie Dan withdrew his sword energy, with a flick of a finger, broke the temple gate, and stepped inside the temple.
"Who dares to cause trouble in my Kongming Cave Heaven!"
This group from Mystic Sect was speechless, quietly cultivating in the mountains, suddenly, someone broke their Mountain Guarding Array!
Now the Mountain Men finally reacted, hastily revived from meditation, swish swish swish, three Zhongxuan Sect Masters jumped out to guard the mountain and defend the Dao.
Tie Dan was now too lazy to speak, throwing the head in his hand.
"Senior Brother!"
"Scoundrel!"
"Looking for death!"
Since the fight was brought to their doorstep, there's naturally no need for formalities, any reasoning will be discussed after the fight, if killed, there's no need to talk further.
So the three of them united their Qi for protection, then opened their mouths, offering the Mountain Sword Emperor Bell, Tianpeng Law Ruler, and Thunder Gate Flowing Pearl, directly attacking.
Although this routine of Qi Manipulation for protection and treasure combat is indeed quite classic and old-fashioned. It's really unknown how many years they've closed in the mountains, it was uninteresting for Tie Dan watching.
However, the Old Xuan Sect is deeply rooted after all, the trio's Qi Shield was as thick as a turtle shell snowball, indeed the standard Old Xuan Sect battle method, or to put it bluntly, this is the classic routine summarized by Xuan Sect over the years, a tribulation crossing template.
Yes, since not everyone has the cheats of Tie Dan, can randomly lightning bathe and recharge.
Most people would rather none of the thunder touch them even slightly.
Thus, when the Divine Skill is not yet mastered, and the Dao Body is not sturdy enough, no one would waste time refining close combat skills, often focusing solely on Qi Refining for protection, wishing to refine a turtle shell Qi Shield tightly wrapping themselves, using a Qi Ball to withstand one thunder would be best.
But since Qi Gong cultivation requires time and resource consumption, with low marginal returns, it's also possible to appropriately refine one or two Lifebound Magic Artifacts besides Qi Refining, which can be used for tribulation crossing and also for blocking thunder.
Thus, although these three men's power is generally average, obviously a notch below the Zhongxuan Sect master who just died in Tie Dan's hands, probably only two or three thunders worth, likely haven't passed the Lifespan Tribulation yet, hence particularly conservative, hiding in the Mountain Gate and not daring to go out, should be called Xiao Xuan Sect.
However, the three magic treasures these Xiao Xuan Sect hold are really remarkable! Treasure Light radiated, all clearly ancient Divinity Transformation Treasures! And evidently exceptionally rare and precious genius treasures refined! As expected from Mystic Sect orthodoxy, what they lack the least is Daoist Collection inheritance, even directly using Divinity Transformation treasures to protect disciples!
