When the disciples of Aoyama reached the Perfect Preservation State, their sword will would become more solid and pure. Their flying swords would be able to cut through rocks and gold. Within a hundred feet, they would be able to control the swords as if they were their own arms and fingers. Wherever they looked, they could kill.
If one cultivated to the Inherited Conception Realm and formed a sword pellet, the sword will would be awe-inspiring, and the flying sword could come and go freely within a thousand feet.
From the State of Undefeated to the State of Free Travel, he could control his flying sword to kill people more than ten miles away.
If he reached the Broken Sea State, his sword will would be so powerful that his flying sword could cross the sea and behead a swordsman from a hundred miles away.
If he was like Pei Baifa in the past, he would be able to reach the Heaven Ascension Realm with his flying sword.
However, even if they were as powerful as the Supreme Being, it would still take some time for their flying swords to reach their target, and they also needed to know where the target was.
Jing Jiu waved his hand, and the sword light left his body and went to the Guocheng Temple hundreds of miles away, accurately landing on Bai Zhenren's body. What kind of realm and sword cultivation was this?
Several sword lights broke through the waves and disappeared on the shore. He moved again.
He stretched out his right hand and chopped downwards.
An extremely bright sword light appeared in the void.
A straight white line appeared on the surface of the sea.
The front end of the white line was heading towards the Guocheng Temple hundreds of miles away at an unimaginable speed.
…
…
The sound of chanting could be heard.
The pagoda forest was bright, a stark contrast to the dark sky.
The sword light pierced through the air, slicing through the temple walls and the pagoda forest. It fell into the depths of the light and forced out a white figure.
Bai Zhenren, who was about to use the Heaven and Earth Escape Technique to escape, was actually slashed out by this sword.
She looked at the distant East Sea. Her eyes were still indifferent, but there was a hint of determination in them.
Jing Jiu was seriously injured, but he still had such a powerful battle strength?
That sword light came from hundreds of miles away and could accurately hit her.
However, her Daoist magic and Fairy Book didn't have such precision.
She had to shorten the distance between her and Jing Jiu.
All of a sudden, the pagoda forest shone brightly and swallowed her figure. She moved against the sword light that was drifting toward her from the sea.
Ten breaths later, she arrived above the sea. Her right hand shone with boundless light as it pressed down on Jing Jiu.
Jing Jiu's expression did not change as he waved his hand again.
The sword light cut through the air and left two clear sword marks on Bai Zhenren's neck and ankle.
With the help of the Fairy Book, it was as if she had a golden body. Even the All in One Sword couldn't break it instantly.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Countless sounds of thunder could be heard.
In an extremely short period of time, thousands of sword lights left Jing Jiu's hands and arrived in the world.
The light tore down the dark clouds, passed through the woods, passed over the sun hidden by the black mountains, flew over the distant sea like blue satin, and over the near sea like white silk.
At a certain moment, the light seemed to turn into countless flying swords that pierced through the sky.
Bai Zhenren stood there and lowered his head to look at his body. He raised his eyebrows as he looked at the extremely fine sword holes on his body.
Back in Zhaoge City, the replica of the Fairy Lady Bai Ren had done something similar when it was destroyed by the Sword Formation of Aoyama.
She had kept that scene in mind. She didn't expect that it would happen to her again after so many years.
The Fairy Book was still glowing in her hand. However, those sword lights had pierced through her body like raindrops before it could touch the hem of Jing Jiu's cloth.
Those sword lights were not the Sword Formation of Aoyama. It was just that the sword moved so fast that it looked as if tens of thousands of sword lights had appeared at the same time.
In other words, the sword had turned himself into a Sword Formation of Aoyama.
A patch of cloud ten miles away was smashed into pieces, and Jing Jiu showed up.
He spun around to look in that direction and saw the Immortal Bai falling down from the sky and into the ocean.
Pah!!! But it didn't cause too much of a commotion.
Even an important figure who could change heaven and earth was no different from a stone when he fell into the sea.
As the sea wind blew slightly, Jing Jiu came to this patch of the sea.
The tattered white cloth was wet by the sea water, looking like a sail torn by a storm.
Jing Jiu stood on the surface of the sea and looked at Bai Zhenren in Silence.
The sea water here was exceedingly deep, but for some reason, it looked exceedingly clear, looking like a small stream.
The most amazing part was that the sea water within a few square miles seemed to be still.
Bai Zhenren drifted in the sea water, as if she were lying in a crystal.
A great deal of golden fairy energy came out from her body and entered the sea slowly, vanishing without a trace soon after.
She looked at the sun blocked by the Dead Dog in the sky with her eyes wide open, reflecting on something.
The battle only lasted for a short period of time.
She had aged a great deal during this time, and her face was full of wrinkles.
As the fairy energy in the Fairy Book dispersed, the wrinkles disappeared again. Her face was as beautiful as before, and the expression in her eyes was as cold as ever.
"The Night Howler is more powerful than I had imagined," she said while looking at the black mountain in the sky.
It was rumored in the Cultivation circle that the two divine animals of the Zhongzhou School, the Unicorn and the Old Dragon, were the most powerful beings. Of the four principal guards of Aoyama, the Dead Dog was the only one who could resist them. Yet, the Dead Dog had blocked the original light borrowed from the outside world by relying on his own magic; it was evident that his Cultivation state had surpassed the Unicorn a long time ago.
Jing Jiu said, "He has been guarding the Sword Jail all year round, so few people know how powerful he is. And he doesn't need to be known by others."
The fight was over, and the Fairy Book was destroyed, and a great deal of fairy energy was flowing into the ocean. As a result, the Dead Dog had no need to block the sun any longer.
The black mountain in the sky moved away slowly, and the edges of the mountain suddenly became brighter, like the fireworks in the daytime. Then, everything returned to normal, and the sunlight shone on the ground again.
"I feel this scene is familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere before," Bai Zhenren said confusedly while looking at the magnificent scene in the sky.
"I also feel that I have heard it somewhere before," Jing Jiu said.
The black mountain was still moving slowly in the sky. It seemed that the Dead Dog had paid a great price to block the original light from the outside world.
Bai Zhenren pulled back his gaze and looked at Jing Jiu, saying, "The competition of the path toward heaven is actually not important. All I want is to live an interesting life like Taiping and Lian Sanyue."
Jing Jiu said, "It's actually a sad thing to live like them."
"You're really a boring person," said Bai Zhenren.
Jing Jiu said, "The more interesting it is, the sadder it is, and the sadder it is."
Knowing that one's life would come to an end sooner or later, one would pursue something interesting and meaningful, until it was the only thing one could pursue.
Bai Zhenren understood what Jing Jiu meant, but he asked uncertainly, "Have you never thought that you would die? Not even once? "
Ascension was not the same as longevity; it was merely a stage of pursuing longevity.
However, few Cultivation practitioners in Chaotian had ascended in the history of Cultivation.
Where did Jing Jiu get his confidence that he would ascend and that his life would never come to an end?
"I had thought that I might die in the Guocheng Temple."
Jing Jiu went on, "As such, I've been trying to avoid such a choice, or to put myself in such a predicament."
Bai Zhenren said, "Nobody can guarantee that they will live forever. If you live such a boring life, wouldn't it be a great loss if you suddenly died one day?"
Standing on the surface of the ocean, Jing Jiu looked at this world, thinking of bathing in the lava and fishing in the clouds; he didn't say anything.
Bai Zhenren said, "You still can't solve the problem. It's impossible to prove immortality."
"Yes, it's like a question; there's no answer."
Jing Jiu went on, "But I've been trying to solve this question. Isn't this the most enjoyable part of living?"
"That's why. It's indeed sensible. Unfortunately, you're the only one who is qualified to enjoy this pleasure."
Bai Zhenren was quite satisfied with this explanation. He let out a smile and then closed his eyes calmly.
The clear and still ocean water started to flow slowly, looking like glass and crystal.
A small bubble formed due to the friction and crowding of the ocean water.
In the next moment, more and more bubbles formed in the ocean water and drifted to the surface of the ocean. Gradually, they gathered together and became foams. The white foams gathered together to form the sprays.
Countless sprays appeared out of nowhere, spreading in all directions. It was unclear when they would disperse.
…
…
Whether it was a spring rain, a sky full of morning light, or the endless twilight, they all represented the departure of a truly great figure.
Unlike the previous times, the countless sprays on the ocean were not seen by anybody.
Yet, the whole of Chaotian had sensed the departure of Bai Zhenren.
The black mountain had gone back, bringing a great deal of coolness to the peaks of Aoyama.
As the mountain wind blew slightly, the Dead Dog landed on the spot where the Shangde Peak used to be. He crouched on the huge black jade plate in Silence and started resting with his eyes closed.
A great deal of fresh blood seeped out from the black skin and hair, and the dreadful wounds could be vaguely seen.
It was then that the people in Aoyama realized that the Dead Dog had been wounded severely.
As a few sword lights flashed, Guangyuan Zhenren, Nan Wang and the others came to the front of the Dead Dog, but they didn't know how to treat his wounds.
A dandelion suddenly appeared in the dark mountain field.
Ada landed on the Dead Dog's body and started licking his wounds gingerly.
…
…
Nan Wang and the others had all gone to the Dead Dog's place, and fewer people were left on the Sword Peak. Now that the matter had been settled, there was no need to keep an eye on Ping Yong-Ka.
Ping Yong-Ka didn't open his eyes. He sat in the cliff cave with a pale face, his finger pointing in the direction of the East Ocean.
The Green Girl stroked his scalding forehead, worried that this guy's brain might have been fried by the unimaginably large amount of calculations.
The moment her hand touched his forehead, countless flying swords on the cliff and in the sky suddenly moved and aimed at her.
Qing 'er understood the reason, and she had a better understanding of Zhao Layue's fear of her. She snorted unpleasantly and flew out of the clouds and fog on the Sword Peak while flapping her transparent wings. She arrived at a high spot in the sky and looked at the East Ocean. She was certain that the blood-red sword light had gone far away.
She was indeed unhappy at the moment, but the reason was complicated, and she couldn't even explain it clearly.
Zhao Layue was most afraid of Ping Yong-Ka at the moment, and she was most afraid of Bai Zhenren over the years.
She should have felt relieved that Bai Zhenren was dead; but why did she feel so stifled? It was the same as when Taiping Zhenren died the day before.
…
…
The ocean waves came one after another, like a thousand piles of snow.
Standing in the midst of the snowy waves, Jing Jiu fell silent for a while. Then he changed into a new cloth and leapt up by treading on the waves. He turned into a sword light and headed to the farther part of the ocean.
It didn't take long for him to arrive above the Huge Whirlpool.
The Giant was soaked to the skin. He kept on digging the cliff rocks by the whirlpool in an attempt to stop the seawater from pouring down, but his efforts were in vain. He looked to be in a sorry state.
Jing Jiu indicated that he would do it himself.
Now that Bai Zhenren was dead and the Fairy Book was destroyed, Jing Jiu sensed that even Emperor Xiao had turned into yellow leaves for some unknown reason.
As such, it was time to save this world.
