"Li Changxiao?"
Mang Biao exclaid in astonishnt, "Are you the Canglan Sect's most outstanding genius disciple, hailed as the most talented in a thousand years, Li Changxiao?"
"So, you're my younger brother's senior brother."
"Haha, family, family."
"It's like a flood sweeping through the Dragon King's temple—all a family dispute."
Mang Biao said heartily to Li Changxiao, slapping his disheveled robes, then turned to Yang Ji and chuckled sheepishly, "Hehe, younger brother, I didn't expect him to be your senior brother. Why didn't you tell earlier?"
[Had I known about your background, I wouldn't have dared to detain you even if I had a hundred guts.] Mang Biao was internally lanting, his head filled with [worry] and [unease], appearing sowhat flustered for a mont.
Yang Ji glanced at him, then turned to look at Li Changxiao, cupping his fists in salute, he said, "So you are the elder, Li Changxiao!"
"Still calling elder? Fine, as you wish," Li Changxiao said with a slight smile, the [interested] above his head becoming [sowhat interesting].
Although he had gleaned one and a half moves from the shadows of the sword dao, Yang Ji still did not dare to arrogantly claim close ties. After all, his spiritual root was too poor, and the owner of the sword dao shadows was a Nascent Soul True Monarch. Whether or not he would accept him as a disciple was still an issue, considering the matter of losing face.
Yang Ji was very clear-headed, similar to how things are on Earth, knowing that climbing relationships recklessly would only lead to disdain.
However, he was quite interested in what Li Changxiao had just said and looked up to ask, "Elder, you just ntioned I was using the Gui Cang Sword Technique?"
"Yes, the move you just executed was indeed from the Gui Cang Sword Technique, the Dao of Li Sword. The Dao of Li Sword represents the fire elent, full of domineering power," explained Li Changxiao.
"Besides that, there are also the Dao of Qian Sword, the Dao of Kun Sword, the Dao of Xun Sword, the Dao of Kan Sword, the Dao of Gen Sword, the Dao of Kui Sword, and the Shocking Sword Dao."
"The Eight Swords of Innate Conception interweave and generate, transforming all phenona of heaven and earth. Everything in the heaven and earth is contained within them, and even a single sword dao is extrely formidable. If the eight swords rge, it's nearly invincible," Li Changxiao introduced.
"There are seven other sword daos? How powerful it must be when the eight swords rge?" Yang Ji's eyes suddenly shone bright.
"This younger brother of mine didn't even sparkle at the ntion of my na, but he beca genuinely enthusiastic when he heard of the eight kinds of sword dao. He must be soone truly focused on cultivation. No wonder he could comprehend one and a half moves from the shadows.
If it were soone else, in front of , they'd probably only try to flatter and flock, with no genuine interest in discussing divine skills," Li Changxiao observed Yang Ji, nodding slightly to himself.
Suddenly, his ears twitched, and he smiled, "Little junior brother, I have yet to achieve the rging of the eight swords, but I'm exceptionally skilled in rging these two swords. Watch closely!"
As soon as Li Changxiao's words fell, a Darkwater Beast with a powerful aura burst forth from the rock forest with a thunderous pounce.
The Darkwater Beast, covered in hard scales with a head like a tiger, was ferociously unstoppable, charging straight at him.
Seeing that Li Changxiao remained motionless, with his longsword still not lifted, Yang Ji raised his voice to warn, "Be careful, that's a Demon Marshal Level Demonic Beast."
Hearing this, Li Changxiao still did not move at all, his mouth instead revealing a thought-provoking smile.
Seeing the [be at ease] above his head, Yang Ji still couldn't help but sweat for him as the Darkwater Beast's claws were about to touch his face.
Just as the Darkwater Beast's claws were about to reach three inches from Li Changxiao's head, Ssst ssst ssst ssst ssst! His sword hand did not move, but a flash of sword light erged before his eyes.
In an instant, the Darkwater Beast was sliced into five pieces and fell with a crash, becoming a pile of minced at at Li Changxiao's feet.
"Such a fast sword!" Mang Biao's pupils shrunk sharply, clicking his tongue internally, "If I were that Darkwater Beast..." As he thought this, he shuddered, not daring to imagine the grim spectacle of himself being dismbered.
"A Demon Marshal Level Demonic Beast died just like that?" The scene trendously shocked Yang Ji; he hadn't even seen Li Changxiao draw his sword before the Darkwater Beast had already fallen.
If it weren't for the wind that carried a slicing sensation, if it weren't for the reminder from the Golden Finger that "Sword Qi was piercingly cold," Yang Ji might even have doubted that Li Changxiao had drawn his sword at all.
"Is my sword not very fast?" asked Li Changxiao, glancing sideways at Yang Ji, "The sword strike I just made had not only the dominating presence of the Dao of Li Sword but also the swiftness of the Dao of Xun Sword.
The Dao of Xun Sword is like the wind, gentle at tis with the grace of swirling blossoms and flicking willows, but when it enters a frenzy, it possesses the great power to destroy the dry and rotten. Combined with the fiery aspect of the Dao of Li Sword, it's like a strong wind blowing over a wildfire, utterly unstoppable and invincible."
"Little junior brother, once you co to the Sect, the master will personally teach you the other Sword Daos."
"Chang Xiao, how did you get here?" Suddenly, True Monarch Ling Gu erged from the stone forest and approached them.
"Uncle Ling!" Li Changxiao bowed his hands in a salute and said, "A disciple sent a ssage that there was spiritual light shooting up into the sky here, so I ca to join in on the excitent."
"I see," True Monarch Ling Gu nodded.
"By the way, Uncle," Li Changxiao glanced at Yang Ji and then transmitted a ssage to him. Turning back, surprise appeared on True Monarch Ling Gu's face. He looked Yang Ji up and down before saying, "Are you telling he comprehended the Dao of Li Sword from the Sword Dao's afterimage?"
"Yes, Uncle," affird Li Changxiao with a nod.
"Not bad at all, aside from you, he is the second person to comprehend the Dao of Li Sword just from a segnt of the Sword Dao's afterimage. He must have an extraordinary aptitude. It seems you will have one more junior brother." True Monarch Ling Gu's sharp aura slightly softened, and he smiled warmly at Yang Ji, "What's your na?"
Facing a True Monarch so directly, Yang Ji's breathing quickened, and he imdiately bowed, "I have seen True Monarch, I am Yang Ji!"
"Yang Ji?" True Monarch Ling Gu nodded, speaking evenly, "Many demonic beasts have co from the outside. Stay close to Chang Xiao and myself, and do not wander off."
"Thank you, True Monarch!" Yang Ji bowed again.
True Monarch Ling Gu smiled as he looked at him and then turned back towards the stone forest.
"This is bad, sothing's not right. Tang Long and the others are blocked by demonic beasts," frowned Mang Biao, "I'll go in and help them."
"Wait!" Yang Ji suddenly reached out to stop him, because the information in front of him had changed [The Formation automatically shuts down as demonic beasts and humans inside reach the limit].
Automatic shutdown?
Why?
Yang Ji's eyes flickered with confusion.
However, this was not the ti to delve into these matters.
As the stone formation stopped, the thick stone pillars instantly beca motionless.
After the initial surprise, the cultivators quickly fought their way out of the stone formation, and at the sa ti, the following demonic beasts were also catching up.
"The stone formation has stopped?" Mang Biao was stunned, but then instantly snapped to action, charging forward to assist Tang Long and the others.
"The stone formation has stopped!" True Monarch Ling Gu's gaze sharply turned towards the three masses of dark demonic qi, sharing a glance with True Monarch Nan Kui and True Monarch of Fiery Fire not far away, as the information [Slay the Demon King] appeared above his head.
Yang Ji was sowhat surprised, they were actually going to slay the Demon King?
"It's rare to find a Demon King, as they rarely show themselves. I didn't expect three to appear this ti. Ultimately, they are sea demonic beasts; even as Demon Kings, their strength is limited on land. I will go slay them. Chang Xiao, take good care of your junior brother."
As True Monarch Ling Gu finished speaking, he joined with True Monarch of Fiery Fire and True Monarch Nan Kui, charging out into battle.
