Chapter 319: The Destructive Technique

　　The long sword’s red light gradually weakened and the youngster’s shadow slowly disappeared into the temple.

　　The board on top of the temple was clearly written with “Mountain God”.

　　This place snowed all year round, but the accumulated snow on the cliff had never ever crossed the temple’s door sill. No matter how strong the snow outside was, the temple and the outside world were totally two different worlds.

　　There was a green stone wall inside the temple and a codex of the sword was carved on it. The tracks of hand movements were abstruse. It was exactly the “Being and Non-Being of Sword Aura” that Shen Lian had learned.

　　From the beginner hand movements, there were a total thirty-three sheets of sword techniques. Below every sheet of sword technique was a corresponding solution to decipher the sword technique.

　　There were two sheets of the codex of the sword which were so exquisite that even when the deities saw they would acclaim loudly.

　　If the two codexes of the sword were to be circulated, it would definitely shape a powerful celestial. If there was a chance, it could possibly be comparable to the Milky Way Sword Sect once upon a time.

　　The youngster stared at the two codexes of the sword. Although he had spent countless effort trying to ponder the supreme master sword technique from the formation chart so that he could decipher the ‘Dazizai Shapeless Sword Aura’. However, he was uncertain whether he could actually win Swordsman Ziwei.

　　When his eyes were locked on ‘Dazizai Shapeless Sword Aura’, he suddenly had an absurd thought.

　　The moment when Shen Lian knew Chen Jianmei got his hands on the spiritual elixir, he used all his energy to strike Yuming the Honoured Celestial. At the same time, he transformed into a meteor and flew away.

　　The five of them were only distracted for a second and quickly came back to their responses. With Shen Lian’s Daoist techniques, he could not hold up against them and they were already after him shortly. Shen Lian used his Taixu Strategy without reserve, the five-colored light rays appeared in the void and constantly following the Five Guangqing Celestials to wipe them out.

　　Along this road, there were about ten mountains. Due to the repercussion of their collisions, some collapsed and some hills were even crushed and pulverized.

　　It had been a while since the last time celestials at the immortal Zhenren’s level fought within Yuan Continent’s boundary. Because to this point, fighting here would be too appalling as it could cause extreme damage to the mountains and rivers.

　　They had been chasing, avoiding and fighting for half of a day, finally, Daoist Dengfeng said, “Forget about it Senior Apprentice-Brother. If this continues to go on, we would definitely provoke God’s punishment.”

　　Although five of them were going against Shen Lian, in his whole journey, Shen Lian did not fall into their compass. The possibility of turning around the situation was high. Even if he was attacked by all the Celestial Arts, Shen Lian would not need to face them all the hard way.

　　All he had to do was to give out five-colored light rays once in a while to hinder their actions.

　　Although immortal Zhenren’s mana was not limitless, as long as Shen Lian knew when to stop fighting and with this fighting method, falling into their compass would not completely deplete Shen Lian’s energy even in three to five years.

　　By then, they would not know how serious the damage would be, and how serious the sin of killing was.

　　The endless karma would be borne by them. Needless to mention about God’s punishment, to eliminate this sin of killing would already require a lot of effort.

　　Yuming the Honoured Celestial scoffed, “Taisu’s b*tches did not keep their promises, or else how can you escape today.”

　　Upon completing his sentence, he stopped. Shen Lian was smart enough to flee using all his energy. It only took a few breaths for him to disappear in the detection of Yuming the Honoured Celestial and the rest.

　　Daoist Dengfeng laughed and said, “There is no perfection in the laws of heaven, just let him go. Now that Lord Deity Tianyan has levitated, even if Fairy Ziling comes back, we have no fear towards Qing Xuan anymore. Moreover, although Luoism’s issue has been stopped, we have already collected the Milky Way Sword Sect’s remaining fortune. Thus, reforming the Heaven Courtyard is close so we should not cause any unnecessary trouble anymore.”

　　Since they had profound cultivation experience, they were definitely aware of the design of the gods. Although they could not know the details, they understood Luoism’s issues and that in the end it still failed.

　　The other three celestials were all known as ‘Shan’, which meant goodness or kindness. After all, there was only one spiritual elixir. Even if it fell into their hands, they still had to give it to their senior apprentice-brother, the Headmaster. By then, everyone would still have to bear the endless sin of killing caused and they definitely would not want to.

　　Yuming the Honoured Celestial also realized that four of his junior apprentice-brothers definitely would not work so hard under such cost.

　　Reforming the Heaven Courtyard still required cooperation from four of his junior apprentice-brothers. It would be inappropriate to create hostility due to this.

　　It was better for him to agree with their opinion.

　　Luckily he already made early preparation. It would be make everything more perfect when he got his hand on Luoism’s fate. Even if he did not get it, he would also be able to use Milky Way Sword Sect’s remaining fortune to make up for it. When the Heaven Courtyard was done then only he would make comparisons.

　　Qingshui River, River Deity Temple.

　　Shen Lian, Ruoxi, and Chen Jianmei arrived at the temple. Ruoxi became a seven to eight years old little girl again. Her body revealed clear Qi and there was a celestial-fragrant smell. If there was no Shen Lian who set up the Dao restriction, the surrounding would be richly grown with a lot of magical herbs.

　　He sighed quietly, to refine this spiritual elixir, how many spiritual materials had the old Daoist used?

　　If they were used for Huandan, it was already sufficient for nine transformations of successful elixir.

　　Even if now Ruoxi did not continue to cultivate, she could live for a very long time. She could even be considered as the celestial in Six Realms of Samsara.

　　There was only the old Daoist who was about to pass away that had such overwhelming cultivation experience that would dare to produce such a spiritual elixir. If it were to be somebody else, just the God’s punishment alone would cost half the person’s life.

　　Suddenly he felt something and sighed.

　　Chen Jianmei asked, “What happened?”

　　Shen Lian said, “Before this, the marks that I left on the bodies of Chicheng and the four others were secretly erased. This person must have a really good ability.”

　　Chen Jianmei said, “I’m afraid that the Five Guangqing Celestials have not met them, so who did that exactly?”

　　“Yanxu. I already guessed that he was hiding in Guangqing, and he must have motive towards the Martial art experts. When their cultivation experience is destroyed, there would be marks of spiritual dissociation left. We should take this opportunity to see what Yanxu was planning. Even the five Guangqing celestials might not see it if they don’t analyze thoroughly. Besides, among those who are related to Chicheng, there’s only Yanxu who most probably is aware of my techniques. After all, he is very clear of what I have learned,” Shen Lian said in a serious manner.

　　Yanxu also had wide knowledge about Taiwei Pavilion. Since they were at the similar state, Qing Xuan’s secret technique could not be hidden away from him.

　　There were only so few of Dao formulas such as Taixu Strategy that he would find difficult to understand. The other Dao techniques might be as easy as reading the palm lines to him.

　　Hence, the one thing that bothered him was that Yanxu took that step to join Sky Demon. If it really happened, when Yanxu mastered Daoism, he would do it quietly. By the looks of it, he might have underestimated Yanxu’s supernatural power.

　　In this big world, it was difficult to find somebody who could actually eliminate him.

　　What Shen Lian thought of, Chen Jianmei could also think of it.

　　After all, Shen Lian was already one of the deities now. The fact that Yanxu could eradicate his technique in such a short time indicated that the both of them were at almost comparable levels.

　　Chen Jianmei said, “If I were to kill this person, I’m afraid there is only hope when I gain my Primordial Spirit.”

　　Shen Lian nodded his head. The person who had the highest possibility in Qing Xuan to kill Yanxu was not him nor his founding master Ziling, but Chen Jianmei. This was because Chen Jianmei practiced and created his own Killing Sword. It would be more effective to control people like Yanxu.

　　After all, even if the Sky Demon could come and go freely between heaven and earth

　　He was thinking, if they could find other innate killing sword’s sword will and let Senior Apprentice-Brother Chen study about it, maybe Chen Senior Apprentice-Brother could reach a more profound state. To compare, although now he was slightly better than Chen Jianmei, his future might not be as bright as Chen Jianmei’s.
