Lu Ping's first move was the strongest sword technique he had mastered, the "Great River Flowing East". A river of swords descended from the sky and headed straight for Ma Li Laozu's face.
"Hmph, such a small trick!"
Although Elder Ma Li was secretly shocked at the timing of Lu Ping's attack and the power of his sword technique, he still mocked him casually. Lu Ping's sword technique could be considered shocking among adepts of the same level. Even in the eyes of ordinary Dharma adepts, it was still nothing in the eyes of a mid Dharma adept. Furthermore, Ma Li was the fourth elder of the Tenma people. How could he be compared to an ordinary mid Dharma adept?
Elder Ma Li waved his hand in front of him, and a pitch-black hole opened up. Lu Ping's waves of swords entered the hole and disappeared.
For Dharma adepts, the Space Technique was a technique that combined offense, defense, and escape into one. It was almost a brand new training system, and it was an important differentiator between Dharma adepts and other low-level adepts.
Lu Ping was not the least bit surprised that his technique had been easily broken. The techniques of a mid Dharma adept were not something he could fathom.
Lu Ping flicked his wrist and the two flying swords flew out one after the other, slashing horizontally in the air.
"Flying Spiral Chain Attack?"
The one who shouted the name of Lu Ping's sword technique was not Ma Li Laozu, but Xie Tianyang, who was taking the opportunity to attack. "The great sword technique of the Ying Tian Sect. So the Ying Tian Dojo was taken by the North Sea people?"
Although Xie Tianyang sounded surprised, the Li Fire Sky Sun Sword in his hand did not stop. It followed closely behind Lu Ping's "Great River Flowing East" sword technique and actually arrived before Lu Ping's Flying Spiral Chain Attack, shooting out dozens of fiery lines. Each line of fire was sharp and burning, and could easily cut an ordinary treasure in half.
However, the Pegasus Dharma Idol behind Elder Ma Li rose once again. With a single flap of its wings, Xie Tianyang's tens of fiery sword threads were extinguished.
Then, Elder Ma Li raised his head slightly, and the Pegasus Idol's single horn flicked upwards. The long trunk of a Herculean Divine Elephant that was swung horizontally was pierced by the Pegasus' single horn.
Ma Li Laozu easily neutralized the attacks from Lu Ping and the others. Although the three of them were shocked, they did not dare to slack off in the slightest. At this moment, the three of them were relying on their attacks to draw Ma Li's attention. Once their attacks stopped, they would be greeted by Ma Li's thunderous and unending attacks. At that time, the three of them would not even have the chance to breathe.
After all, Xie Tianyang came from the Purple Sun Palace, which was known as the number one sword sect in the cultivation world for its swordsmanship. The depth of its foundation was far beyond what Lu Ping could imagine. Xie Tianyang might be slightly weaker than Lu Ping in terms of cultivation, but his knowledge and foresight were not the slightest bit inferior.
Lu Ping's swordsmanship was exposed by Xie Tianyang, but he did not panic at all. At this moment, it was a matter of life and death. Naturally, Xie Tianyang would not hold back just because Lu Ping used the Ying Tian Sect's swordsmanship.
The Flying Spiral Consecutive Slashes broke Ma Li Laozu's spatial magic once again. However, Ma Li Laozu flicked his finger, and Sang Yu's Herculean Divine Elephant's huge body trembled like duckweed. A miserable howl came from the Herculean Divine Elephant's mouth, and a huge bloody hole appeared in the Herculean Divine Elephant's abdomen.
Sang Yu whistled, and the Primordial Fierce Crocodile moved its huge body horizontally, blocking in front of the Herculean Divine Elephant. At the same time, it formed a seal with both hands, and the surrounding spiritual qi turned into a huge elephant trunk in mid-air, coiling around the Primordial Fierce Crocodile's body.
The Spirit Taming Beast Sect's cultivators had all kinds of strange divine abilities, and they were known as the number one divine ability in the cultivation world. The source of these divine abilities was the innate divine ability of the spirit pets in their hands.
Ma Li Laozu coldly snorted, and the Pegasus Avatar above his head leaped up and down, bringing along a strong spiritual qi tide. Before Sang Yu's divine ability could completely take form, it was already broken by the strong spiritual qi tide. Moreover, the spiritual qi tide continued to fluctuate, and even though Sang Yu had a lot of methods, she could not break away from the spiritual qi tide for a while. The power of the divine ability she executed was slightly weaker than before.
At that moment, a milky white light shot out, and the spiritual qi tide around Sang Yu was like a pagoda that suppressed a river demon. In an instant, it had calmed down, and because the large amount of spiritual qi that Ma Li Laozu had gathered to execute the spiritual qi tide, it now became the best medium for Sang Yu to execute her great divine ability.
The ninth-tier white jade lotus under Lu Ping's feet slowly rotated, and the spiritual light that had shot out earlier had come from the stamen of the lotus. This was a divine ability that Lu Ping's white jade lotus had developed after it had advanced to the spirit-nurturing level.
After the white jade lotus had advanced to the spirit-nurturing level, it had been able to shoot out the spiritual light. After it had advanced to the spirit-nurturing level, this divine light could not only stop the surging spiritual qi, but Lu Ping could also feel that, as long as he had enough practice, he could even stop the surging of a river.
"Huh?"
Elder Ma Li was once again surprised. Strictly speaking, the Spirit Qi Wave that he had used was not a powerful magic. However, the requirement to use this magic was not low, and one had to be at least at the Dharma stage to be able to do so.
This kind of divine ability was quite despicable. Normally, it was only used by high-grade cultivators to toy with low-grade cultivators. A wave of spiritual Qi surged over, and it was like a thirsty person falling into a raging sea. There was water everywhere, but they couldn't drink it. Moreover, they could lose their life at any time.
Although this kind of divine ability was almost useless to practitioners of the same level, it was still a Dharma divine ability, and it was not easy to break it. However, the reality was that Ma Li Laozu's divine ability had been easily broken by Lu Ping.
Ma Li Laozu's eyes shone brightly at the white jade lotus under Lu Ping's feet, but it was blocked by a layer of mist on the surface of the lotus.
"Pure Yang Qi?"
Ma Li Laozu looked shocked, but then he shook his head and smiled. "No, no, this is clearly a Spirit Nurturing Treasure that has just advanced. It must be because of its natural good quality, but it is a treasure with great potential. That's good, after the Old Man takes care of the three of you, I'll let the Old Man have a good look at this treasure!"
As he spoke, Xie Tianyang's Fiery Sky Yang Sword came down again.
Xie Tianyang was a true swordsman. His swordsmanship might not be as complicated as Lu Ping's, but it was far more refined and sharp than Lu Ping's.
Jiao Daoren had broken through all techniques with one sword, and with just a long sword, he had been able to take second place among the Seventh Patriarch. He was known as the highest level of swordsmanship in the world of swordsmanship, and it was the ultimate goal for swordsmen.
As a result, true sword cultivators paid attention to their swords. They believed that a cultivator only needed a flying sword, and other magic treasures were all burdens.
This view might be biased, but to be able to place all of one's heart and soul on a flying sword, sword cultivators were indeed more focused than other cultivators.
Amongst cultivators of the same level, it was often because of the existence of sword cultivators that other cultivators were afraid. Facing a strong attack from a sword cultivator, no one could say that they would definitely win.
The Fiery Sky Yang Sword scattered sparks that filled the sky, and then countless sparks suddenly condensed, finally turning into a purple light. It pulled out a long halo in the air, and in a flash, it had already arrived in front of Ma Li Laozu.
"Purple Extreme Sword Art!"
Ma Li Laozu let out a strange cry, as though he was extremely afraid of Xie Tianyang's sword technique. He threw the horn that was formed from the Heavenly Horse's horn upwards, and the horn on the Heavenly Horse's forehead merged with the horn magic treasure.
The Heavenly Horse raised its head to the sky and let out a long neigh. The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to collapse, and was instantly absorbed by the horn on the Heavenly Horse's forehead.
The Heavenly Horse lowered its head and collided with the purple star formed from Xie Tianyang's Fiery Sky Yang Sword. There was actually no sound between the two.
The purple star was suddenly extinguished, like a spark that had been cut off. Xie Tianyang's face immediately turned pale, and the flames around the Fiery Sky Yang Sword extinguished, revealing the light purple sword body.
The Heavenly Horse's head suddenly wanted to tilt up, as though someone had ruthlessly punched it in the chin. It let out a long neigh, and its four hooves stepped on the air as it retreated a few steps.
Ma Li Laozu's expression relaxed, and a hint of admiration appeared on his face. He said, "I didn't expect the Purple Extreme Sword Art to have already allowed you to practice to the extreme of the 'Purple Extreme Star'. Just with this sword technique, the third generation of the Zi Yang Palace disciples and the six great swords will respect you in the future!"
After saying that, Ma Li Laozu sighed again and said, "I didn't expect you to hide your strength so deeply. If you were at the Dharma stage, the Old Man would not have been able to do anything to you today. If you were at the mid Dharma stage, the Old Man would have been defeated by you. With this sword technique, Chenxi would definitely not be your match. Could it be that he died by your hands?"
Lu Ping raised his Flowing Sword, and in the gap between the Beautiful Autumn Waters Sword's main attack, he used the Seeping Water Sword Art, intending to disperse the pressure of Ma Li Laozu's attack. This allowed Xie Tianyang to have some breathing space after using the Purple Extreme Sword Art. Hearing Ma Li Laozu's words, he did not make a sound.
Xie Tianyang seemed to have used up a lot of his inner qi and mana in this attack, and his pale face had not recovered yet. Hearing what was said, he laughed and said, "What a joke. Although I am confident that I can beat Ma Chenxi, it will not be easy to kill him!"
Ma Li Laozu glanced at Lu Ping. In just a few short exchanges, the swordsmanship that Lu Ping had used, as well as those that were not below the power of a great magical power, had already reached six or seven types. Each of them was very exquisite, and there were few practitioners of the same level who could be his match. The sword technique that was being used in front of him was still exquisite beyond compare. With one look, it was obvious that it was an inherited sword technique that had been carefully polished by generations of practitioners.
However, it was only because the person who used it did not have enough cultivation. Ma Li Laozu's right thumb and index finger clenched tightly before suddenly opening them. The sword net formed by the all-pervasive Seeping Water Sword Art was torn apart like a huge piece of paper.
Ma Li Laozu laughed softly and said, "In a head-on confrontation, even if Chenxi is not your match, if you want to kill him, even the Purple Extreme Sword Art won't be enough. However, if you sneak attack from behind, then it's hard to say!"
"If you want to incriminate someone, you can always find a pretext!"
Lu Ping bought a moment of respite for Xie Tianyang, causing the Li Fire Celestial Yang Sword to reignite with purple flames. Xie Tianyang stretched out his hand and pushed. The Li Fire Celestial Yang Sword whistled, passing through the sword net torn apart by Ma Li Laozu, and once again pierced towards him.
