When the sword pierced Su Fang's body, the Sword Qi destroyed Su Fang's body like a hot knife through butter.
Xun Er screamed and trembled in fear. She quickly suppressed the Sword Qi, but the Peach Wood Sword still pierced Su Fang's body. The Sword Qi tore his body apart.
Her face was pale, and she let go of the Peach Wood Sword in fear. Tears flowed from the corner of her eyes. "No, why didn't you dodge?"
"You have already killed me!"
Su Fang trembled slightly, but he did not spurt out blood. For some reason, he was unusually calm. "This is the taste of killing, this is the feeling of killing. Sometimes, killing is not something you can decide. Even if you don't want to kill, you have to kill people."
Xun Er could not believe it for a long time. "Why my sword?"
"Saving people is your original intention, but killing people is not your intention. Just like those plants that are about to die due to drought, when they encounter a rainstorm, they will be soaked and die. What I mean is a kind of helplessness. This is something that neither man nor the heavens can control. If you are too stubborn, it will instead create this kind of situation. Why don't you take a step back and think of a better way to save people? Your sword can indeed save people, but it can also kill people.
"Furthermore, you have to know the taste of killing people. Only by experiencing this feeling can you come from your heart and save people from killing. The sword that kills people is also a sword that saves people. It is the same as other divine abilities. What kind of cultivation technique lands in the hands of the person will cause different results. Not everyone who cultivates a demonic cultivation technique is evil. This is the same principle as the sword in the hands of the person."
"Don't cry, alright. I am fine!"
All of a sudden, Su Fang smiled.
"You are fine!"
Xun Er could not believe it. She wiped her tears and looked carefully. It was indeed so. Only then did she realize that Su Fang did not spurt out any blood after being hit by the Peach Wood Sword. It was too abnormal.
She exclaimed in shock, "Clone!"
Hua!
Another Su Fang appeared at the side. The Su Fang that was hit by the Peach Wood Sword instantly shattered, turning into True Qi fragments and finally dust.
The Mahogany House returned to Xun Er's hands on its own, causing her to tremble for quite a while before she finally believed that Su Fang did not die under her sword.
"I'm alive and well, but in your heart, you've already experienced death. Your sword is already stained with blood. Perhaps in the future, you'll be able to find a way to save people."
Su Fang nodded, like a wisp of cool breeze: "Your Burning Heaven Sword Sect's sword techniques are indeed not bad. The Clearwater Sword Technique is executed naturally and smoothly, vast and abundant, but it has not reached that kind of extreme. However, to be able to comprehend the essence of the way of the sword after cultivating to the end is also not bad."
After hearing this, Xun Er felt like she was hallucinating. "Are you a senior?"
"No, I'm not your senior. You've been cultivating for thousands of years. If we're just talking about time, you're still my senior. I still need some time to fully recover. If you have nothing to do during this time, you'll come to me to practice the sword. I'm already at the stage where I've forgotten the moves and only care about the intent. It'll be of great help to you in comprehending the Sword Dao."
"Intent, that's the height of the way of the dao that can only be comprehended by a giant that's close to ascending."
"I also comprehended it by accident. Unfortunately, I've cultivated too many divine abilities and too many moves. It's too complicated, so I wanted to find a way to solve this problem. However, I didn't know that by fusing the essences of various techniques, I would accidentally comprehend the power of the dao."
"Promise me.
You're not allowed to die in the future. "
"Alright, I won't die. Even if I die, it'll be a clone."
"Really promise me."
"Of course."
"Then continue to practice the sword with me. You have to tell me the intent that you've fused."
"Alright, that'll depend on your comprehension."
Su Fang smiled and nodded, grabbing out a green lotus sword qi. His entire body emitted an aura that was superior to having a sword without a sword.
"Clang! Clang!"
Xun Er was not soft-hearted at all. This time, the Peach Wood Sword was not polite. Just like before, it turned into a sky full of sword qi that pierced out. It was as if they were surrounding Su Fang and piercing towards him.

Burning Heaven Sword Sect.
This could only be considered a second-rate sect. The barrier was also very vast, covering a large area of mountains, forests, and lakes.
At this moment, in the depths of a mountain range surrounded by lakes, hundreds of disciples were surrounding a barrier on the mountain peak. Inside, two male disciples were fighting.
Xun Er was also waiting near the barrier.
The nearby disciples were all at the Catastrophe Realm. They were discussing below, "This time, the few senior brothers and sisters are competing. It's a rare sight. Whoever gets first place will become the Sovereign."
"I think that senior brother Wang Zhongtian and senior sister Cheng Ying have the most confidence."
"Senior sister Cheng Ying has a higher chance of winning. She's the number one disciple under Master."
"That's not necessarily true. Although senior brother Wang Zhongtian is a man, he's also been heavily nurtured by Master. Moreover, I heard that he recently cultivated an extraordinary sword technique."
"In short, the other senior brothers and sisters have no hope."
Many disciples were staring at the two girls. As for Xun Er and the other Feather Transformation Realm experts, they were like passersby.
The formation suddenly shook. One of the Feather Transformation Realm men crashed into the formation barrier and fainted. His flying sword fell to the ground.
The other person easily won.
"Wang Zhongtian!"
When the fainted man was carried out, a tiger's roar sounded. A man who was not even forty years old flashed into the formation as a supreme Feather Transformation Realm expert.
Many people were staring at the man named Wang Zhongtian.
His cultivation was very strong. He had reached the high level of the Feather Transformation Realm. In the Burning Heaven Sword Sect, he was definitely a famous person.
Sword Qi exploded from the array formation again, layer after layer intertwining with each other.
Occasionally, the sword Qi would turn into flames and burn everything. Coupled with the sword Qi's incomparably sharp nature, the sword Qi could kill any low-level Feather Transformation Realm cultivator.
The fight between the two caused the surrounding disciples to clap and cheer.
"Junior sister, do you still want to go up and challenge them?"
Outside the formation, a twenty-four or twenty-five year old woman was standing near Xun Er. She had her hands behind her back and a sword on her back. She was standing next to Xun Er.
She seemed to be impatient to enter the formation.
Xun Er hastily shook her head. "Junior sister doesn't have senior sister's strength. I don't dare to enter the arena, but I still want to go up and try."
"Don't mind master's words too much. A few days ago, master often nagged us that your sword Qi was too soft, like embroidery. You probably care about it, so you want to go up and prove yourself."
That woman had the heroic aura of a man. "If you meet a senior sister, I can go easy on you and protect you. But those senior brothers aren't people who are protective of the fairer sex. You're the last closed-door disciple Master accepted. Master likes you the most."
"Many thanks for senior sister's teachings," Xun Er respectfully replied.
In less than half an incense stick's worth of time.
Wang Zhongtian's fiery sword energy broke through his opponent's sword move and pressed his sword against his opponent's neck.
He turned to the middle-aged woman at the top of the formation and coldly cupped his fists. "Master!"
The middle-aged woman's supreme ancient aura swept over her. "Who else wants to go up and challenge them? Our sect only has this one spot in the past thousand years. If you want to become the Sovereign, you'll have to wait another thousand years."
The woman who had been talking to Xun Er soared into the air. "Disciple Cheng Ying is willing to give it a try."
Within the formation, Wang Zhongtian condensed his qi and shouted, "Senior sister Cheng, please!"
Cheng Ying flew into the formation. In an instant, quite a bit of cold Qi and sword energy rose around her. "Senior brother Wang's methods are amazing. So many senior brothers and junior brothers have defeated you, but in the end, none of them were senior brother's match."
"Recently, senior brother's Heaven Burning Sword Art has broken through another level, reaching the level of Heaven and Earth Bear Flame. I heard senior sister is also testing this move. But if you use cold Qi in your sword, I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress junior brother's move."
"Then let's give it a try."
"Heaven Burning Qi!"
Wang Zhongtian was completely confident, and his ruler's aura rose.
After saying that, he activated a large amount of scorching sword Qi. He pointed at the air, and with a series of buzzing sounds, he grabbed a large amount of sword energy with both hands. Layers of burning sword Qi immediately shot toward Cheng Ying.
She was surrounded by burning sword Qi. If she touched it, she would probably be burned.
Cheng Ying had already activated part of the cold Qi around her. In a breath, with her as the center, she continuously formed seals. Waves of cold sword Qi condensed in the air, and rustled as they slashed toward the burning sword Qi.
The sword Qi of the two experts instantly clashed. Although the two sword Qi were in the form of cold and hot, the marks and patterns condensed by the sword Qi were the same.
Therefore, neither of the two disciples had a clear advantage.
After an intense battle, every time the two attacked, there would be thousands of sword Qi slashing down. Only Winged Transformation Realm cultivators could condense so many sword Qi in an instant. If it was a Catastrophe Realm cultivator, it would be impossible.
These two disciples were the strongest existences in this dojo. They also represented the core strength of the Heaven Burning Sword Sect. They were indeed extraordinary.
The sharpness of their attacks almost caused the formation to shatter.
"Heaven and Earth Bear Flame!"
An hour later.
Wang Zhongtian suddenly bit his finger, and formed thousands of seals.
"Profound Earth Sword Furnace!"
Cheng Ying also used a powerful move.
At this moment, the two huge sword auras started from the internal explosion, causing the formation to be filled with exploding sword stars formed by Zhengming sword Qi.
Although it looked like this move, it actually contained countless seals and patterns. This was the peak of the two disciples' cultivation. Otherwise, without such hard work, they would not be able to use such a destructive move.
"Pfff!"
A figure was swept away by the sword Qi.
It was Wang Zhongtian. He almost fell down. He used one hand to suppress the formation's barrier, and hurriedly shouted at the figure that was attacking him.
"Senior Sister, I've lost!"
Cheng Ying retracted her aura. "Junior Brother is also very powerful. It's just that Senior Sister has fused other sword moves on the Heaven Burning Sword Technique. It can be considered a kind of innovation, so I can suppress Junior Brother by a bit."
"Whoosh!"
The defeated party left the formation in a sorry state.
The middle-aged woman outside who was controlling the situation was gratified. "Cheng Ying has been working very hard recently. Everyone must learn well. Are there any other disciples who want to come up and try?"
At this moment, the surroundings quieted down. No one dared to look at Cheng Ying's terrifying aura.
Xun Er suddenly walked out. "Senior Sister, Junior Sister is willing to try!"
"Su Erxun!"
Before Cheng Ying could speak, the middle-aged woman spoke. She was very serious. "This is an arena competition. Be careful not to injure others!"
"Master, I have also been cultivating during this period of time. I hope you can give me this opportunity!" Xun Er was very serious as she bowed and requested.
"Be careful!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Xun Er's figure gently flashed as she flew into the formation.
Cheng Ying smiled happily. "Junior Sister, you have to be careful. Our cultivation levels are quite a few steps apart. I will use 30% of my strength. If you can't take it, call out early so that the sword won't be merciless!"
It was unknown where Su Erxun's confidence came from, but she suddenly responded in public, "Thank you, Senior Sister. Senior Sister can use your full strength!"
The disciples below were all very shocked. They did not know why the disciple who everyone knew had the best personality suddenly changed today.
"Then watch carefully. Since you cultivate the Clearwater Sword Technique, I will use the Clearwater Sword Technique, Water Ripple Long Scar!"
Cheng Ying took the first step forward, then continuously stepped out in the air.
Her speed was fast, and as she moved, she brought with her dense sword Qi, directly suppressing Su Erxun in the center with a crushing force.
"Whoosh!"
Everyone thought that Su Erxun would fight head-on and decide the victor in an instant.
Who would have thought that she would make everyone's jaws drop. She grimaced in surprise and actually dodged the sword momentum.
