Chapter 1978 1.1977 The True Fire of the Sun
At the critical moment, the Xuanbing chains coiled around his body, blocking the lower body sword strike of Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao!
It really is Shun's Nebula Chains!
Furthermore, they combined the two nebula chains—one triangular for offense and one circular for defense—into one!
Blocked by the Xuanbing Chains, along with her sword, she was stopped by Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect. With her back exposed and her life in imminent danger, Su Jiaojiao, the leader of the Centipede Hall, rolled in mid-air to dodge, and in the process used the sixth move of the Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual: "Flowers Turning Under the Leaves". The sword is hidden behind her back or under her arm and suddenly thrusts out, making it impossible to defend against.
The coiled vine sword suddenly unleashed a cold arrow, aiming straight for the throat of Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect. It barely pierced through the gap between the two chains, demonstrating mastery of the essential techniques of steadiness, accuracy, and ruthlessness.
It was assumed that Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, would have no way to avoid the attack and would inevitably take a desperate gamble, pointing her finger to intercept the sword's edge. At that moment, the Pan Teng Sword, though obstructed, did not lose momentum. As the blade bent, the poisoned barbs on its side would break off and fly out. Like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, or a centipede severing its own legs, it would strike at Abbess Jingyin's vital points. This was the most insidious killing move of the Pan Teng Sword.
Unexpectedly, the Pan Teng Sword, a weapon of extraordinary craftsmanship, had already been seen through by Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect.
The mysterious ice chains surrounding her suddenly expanded outwards, like a tornado that appeared out of nowhere, forcing Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao and her sword back far away!
The coiled vine sword remained intact, so the barbs wouldn't break. And with the sword tip far from the throat, the series of deadly attacks were abruptly neutralized.
"Wow—" The Yin-Yang Twin Commands possessed great supernatural powers, drawing gasps of surprise from upstairs.
Then a busybody exclaimed, "Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao has completed half of her sword moves, and the outcome is still undecided. However, Emei Sect Leader Abbess Jingyin has only used one level of the Sacred Fire Scripture. The superiority of one over the other is obvious to the naked eye."
"Master Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, has led the sect for decades and is revered as the leader of the eight sects. She is a veteran of countless battles and a renowned figure in the martial arts world, far surpassing any newcomer to the martial arts world." Someone else chimed in agreement.
"It's too early to talk about victory or defeat at this time." The busybody who also had a share of the Five Poisons Divine Sword disagreed: "The Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual still has some killing moves that haven't been used yet, and the Five Poisons Divine Sword has four more swords that haven't been used yet. If Abbess Jingyin is fighting five against one, she will lose the whole game if she is not careful."
"Brother, there's more to this than meets the eye," the man said humbly, seeking guidance.
"Just watch the game with peace of mind," the busybody said, keeping everyone in suspense.
As expected. Su Jiaojiao, the Centipede Hall Master, who had been pushed far away by the chains, once again used the first move of the Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual: Hundred Steps Sideways, Ghostly Approach. The coiled vine sword, wrapped in surging sword energy, crashed headlong into the Xuanbing chains.
"Huh?" The Xuanbing Chains seemed to have been drawn to a magnet, firmly held by the Pan Teng Sword. The sword's surface shimmered, as if absorbing the Xuanbing's energy. The spectator upstairs couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that the 'Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual' can also absorb a person's power?"
"No." The busybody who had also contributed to the Five Poison Divine Sword revealed the secret: "This is the power of the Pan Teng Sword, not the merit of the Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual."
The implication is that the material used to forge the Pan Teng Sword itself can absorb true essence. It's not that the "Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual" technique can steal a person's power.
The coiled vine sword, saturated with the Xuanbing Yuan Qi, turned from emerald green to reddish-purple, its entire body rippling with light, as if it were breathing out demonic flames from the Nine Netherworlds, inspiring awe in all who beheld it. Even Su Jiaojiao, the Centipede Hall Master who held the sword hilt, had her blood-red eyes reflected in it.
Her long hair swayed wildly, brimming with true energy. She channeled all her power, her wrist swishing as she unleashed the seventh move of the Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual: "Red and Purple Stealing Vermilion." The sword pressed against her enemy's body, its barbs hooking into flesh. She channeled her inner energy, using the coiled vine sword to draw upon the opponent's internal force and replenish herself.
Although this move still failed to get close to Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, it shattered the Xuanbing Chains in one fell swoop!
With a crisp crack, the chains shattered and transformed into icy energy. The Emei Sect Leader, Abbess Jingyin, was left wide open, revealing her vulnerability.
Having gained the upper hand in one move, Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao shouted, "Take this!"
It was the eighth move of the "Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual": "Entangling Silk and Climbing Vines". The sword light was dense and interwoven, forming a cage of sword energy that trapped the enemy inside, subjecting him to being cut and sawed, as if he were being subjected to the torture of being slowly sliced to death.
"A fine sword." Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, exuded the demeanor of a grandmaster in every gesture.
Dear readers, please remember: Heaven and Earth are divided into Yin and Yang, and the sacred fire has two commands.
Yang Ling·Xi Lun Zhan transformed into a blazing golden wheel of light, like the sun's crown in the sky, shooting out countless golden rays.
This is the true fire of the sun released from the pearl embedded in the hollowed-out part of the Yang Ling.
The evil spirits were instantly incinerated upon contact, and the sword energy cage was vaporized in an instant. Only Su Jiaojiao, the leader of the Centipede Hall, remained, struggling to hold on with just her sword.
Seeing that all her acupoints were about to be melted through by the true fire of the sun, her meridians were about to rupture and she would die from the loss of her power, Su Jiaojiao, the Centipede Hall Master, desperately tried to survive and forced out the ultimate killing move of the Hundred Tribulations Sword Manual, the ninth move: "Thousand Poisons Devour the Heart".
He channeled all his inner strength into the sword hilt, and sword energy shot out from the tip of the coiled vine sword, transforming into countless illusory blue centipedes that pierced through defenses and went straight for the heart. Those struck by this energy would suffer a hundred calamities and die a violent death.
A beam of green light shot outwards, piercing through the myriad golden rays. The true energy surged forth relentlessly, its momentum undiminished. It pierced through layers of solar true fire, striking directly at the heart meridian of Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect. Meanwhile, Su Jiaojiao, the Centipede Hall Master, was left with her true energy depleted and her acupoints about to be melted and destroyed by the solar true fire, leading to her death.
Those watching from upstairs covered their faces with their sleeves, unable to bear to look.
When the light faded, the entire place fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Some of the bolder ones then peeked through their sleeves.
Yang Ling stood like the sun at its zenith, blocking the way for Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, while Yin Ling, like the full moon in the sky, lay across the back of Su Jiaojiao, the leader of the Centipede Hall.
The Yang command neutralized the thousand poisons that gnawed at the heart, while the Yin command blocked the true fire from melting the body.
"Bravo!" someone shouted, drawing thunderous applause.
Who will win and who will lose?
"Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao risked her life in the fight, while Emei Sect Leader Abbess Jingyin saved herself and others. The difference in skill is immediately apparent." The busybody who had also contributed to the Five Poisons Divine Sword's success hit the nail on the head.
"I've heard that the Iron Blood Banner Sect possesses a supreme treasure, 'The Light of the Sun.' I wonder if it has any connection to the Yang Order: Dawn Wheel Slash?" Others speculated.
“Since it bears the name ‘Sun,’ the two must have a connection,” the busybody replied thoughtfully.
"In that case, the 'light of the sun' may have been transformed from the Yangling Pearl, which is also possible."
"The world is vast and full of wonders." The busybody sighed meaningfully.
"Thank you." Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao landed safely.
"You flatter me." Abbess Jingyin, the head of the Emei Sect, replied with a warm and welcoming air.
There's no need for further competition. Centipede Hall Master Su Jiaojiao abdicates, yielding to a more capable successor. Scorpion Hall Master Hong Erniang enters the arena, sword in hand.
"Hong Erniang, the Fifth Immortal, the Mountain-Severing Sword." Hong Erniang, the leader of the Scorpion Hall, drew her sword.
"Emei Jingyin, Sacred Flame Double Tokens." Abbess Jingyin held back the Yin-Yang Double Tokens.
As everyone's gaze fell upon it, they were able to see the true form of the Scorpion Tail Mountain-Severing Sword.
This sword has a narrow, straight blade, upright like a scorpion's tail. The hooked edge at the end gleams coldly, resembling a scorpion's barb. The hooked edge is double-edged, capable of both thrusting and locking. The guard is symmetrically positioned like two interlocking pincers, like scorpion pincers, allowing the user to control the enemy's weapon. The hooked edge contains hidden poison grooves; wounds inflicted by this sword will fester and be difficult to heal, causing excruciating pain.
Its metal element is sharp and potent, specifically designed to penetrate hard armor and protective gear; its hooked blade can cleave metal and stone. The swordsmanship primarily utilizes backhand thrusts, throat locks, and tendon severing, making it exceptionally dangerous. The sword techniques aim to break through surfaces with points, using hooks and locks to disarm opponents; the moves are fierce, powerful, and cunning. Combined with twelve Shattering Scorpion Tail Needles, effective against internal energy, it is a deadly, ruthless weapon.
To learn this sword technique, one must first master the "Golden Scorpion Armor-Piercing Sword Manual".
