Taiping Inn

The reason why Situ Xuanlue did not draw his sword at the first time was not because he was careless, nor because he was arrogant and underestimated the enemy, but because drawing the sword itself was a change of the "Blood Sleeve Absolute Immortal Sword".

Since ancient times, there have been skills in sword drawing, which combine drawing the sword out of the sheath with sneak attacks and slashes, with the intention of causing a one-shot kill under the unexpected circumstances. Later, it was combined with closing the sheath to accumulate energy, resulting in a long sword that would not be drawn out of the sheath on weekdays, but the power of the sword when it was drawn out of the sheath was extremely great. There are even assassins who spend more than ten years to accumulate a sword, and then use this sword to assassinate a master who is far better than themselves, and it is also called the only sword in a lifetime.

This is the case with the "Blood Sleeve Absolute Immortal Sword" carried by Situ Xuanlue. It has not been drawn out for nearly ten years, and its power can be imagined. However, Jin Chansou was knowledgeable and saw this point, and interrupted the "Blood Sleeve Absolute Immortal Sword" from being drawn out of the sheath twice.

You should know that the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" is not a pure sword weapon, and is different from the "Human World" and "Knock on the Heavenly Gate". In general, the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" does not have too many realm requirements for the sword wielder. The "Human World" and "Knock on the Heavenly Gate" are valuable in being able to match the realm of the sword holder. The higher the realm of the sword holder, the more powerful the sword will be. However, if it is only in the realm of heaven and man, the power of the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" and the "Heavenly Demon Slaying Immortal Sword" is better than the "Knock on the Heavenly Gate" and "Human World". In other words, in today's world, the "Knock on the Heavenly Gate" can only play the greatest power in the hands of Li Daoxu, and only in the hands of Li Xuandu can the "Human World" play to the extreme.

In this case, the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" and the "Heavenly Demon Slaying Immortal Sword" are the most suitable weapons for the great masters of the Heavenly World. With the "Sword Bone" body, Situ Xuanlue can also compete with opponents of a higher realm.

The Golden Toad Old Man was able to forcefully push the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" back into the scabbard twice, which shows how high his cultivation and realm are. Then, the Golden Toad Old Man pushed forward with his palm again, not only forcing all the ox-hair sword energy that had pierced into the back of his hand out of his body, but also the blood-red dots healed and disappeared in an instant, and his five fingers seemed to cover the sky and the sun, filling Situ Xuanlue's vision. It can be said that a leaf blocked the eyes and saw no five mountains. Even the movement of the Qi in Situ Xuanlue's body became stagnant.

In the eyes of the spectators, the Golden Toad Old Man's move was really ordinary and calm. Not to mention the might of shaking the mountains and the earth, there was no sound at all. Even many people with lower cultivation saw that the two separated at the touch, and Situ Xuanlue wanted to draw his sword but failed, and then his body shook, as if he was pushed by the Golden Toad Old Man.

However, the ground beneath their feet had already turned to dust, which showed that the Golden Toad Old Man was not as calm as he seemed on the surface.

The five major sects in the world, Zhengyi Sect, Qingwei Sect, Wudao Sect, Yinyang Sect, and Butian Sect, just corresponded to the original five earthly immortals in the southeast, northwest, and northeast. Li Daoxu certainly contributed to the Qingwei Sect's dominance in Jiangbei, but the fact that Qingwei Sect has produced many talents cannot be ignored. Whether it is Zhang Jingxiu or Xu Wugui, they both believe that they are far inferior to Li Daoxu in terms of identifying people and teaching disciples. If Situ Xuance had not died and Li Xuan had never left Qingwei Sect, then Qingwei Sect would have three earthly immortals in one sect, and even Li Taiyi might not be able to enter the realm of immortality after many years. In this way, Qingwei Sect has been able to dominate the world for nearly two hundred years.

In the Qingwei Sect, which is full of talents, Situ Xuanlue was able to serve as the head of the Tianji Hall and stayed in the core of Qingwei Sect for a long time. It can be seen that his excellence cannot be explained by his origin from the Situ family.

In fact, although Li Daoxu was closer to Li Daoshi, it was more because they had been brothers for many years. When it came to doing practical things, Li Daoxu still relied on Situ Xuanlue more.

After receiving the force of the Golden Toad Old Man's push, Situ Xuanlue did not fly away as the Golden Toad Old Man had expected. He just shook his body and resolved this seemingly understated majestic distance.

The next moment, Situ Xuanlue's figure and clothes became transparent, as if carved from jade, showing a translucent color, so that the light was distorted, causing Situ Xuanlue's actual position to be subtly offset from the position seen by the eyes.

The Golden Toad Old Man failed to notice this subtle change in the first time, and was hit on the shoulder by Situ Xuanlue's sword finger, bursting with a cluster of blood. Situ Xuanlue had already cultivated his "sword bones", and all the hair on his body could match the sword. When Situ Xuanlue poked him with one finger, it was like he was stabbed with a sword by Situ Xuanlue. In addition, the Confucian school was not known for its physical strength, so it was still slightly affected.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Situ Xuanlue once again grasped the hilt of the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" at his waist and tried to draw the sword out of the sheath.

Seeing this, the Golden Toad Sou knew that it was too late to stop Situ Xuanlue from drawing the sword, so he simply slapped Situ Xuanlue with his palm, making it clear that even if Situ Xuanlue succeeded in drawing the sword out of the sheath, he would be injured by his palm.

Situ Xuanlue held the hilt of the sword with his right hand and greeted it with his left palm. At this time, Situ Xuanlue's body had already acquired some sword-like qualities, as hard as jade. After meeting the palm of the Golden Toad Old Man, Situ Xuanlue's entire arm was shattered like a long sword. At the same time, a sword energy surged out from his palm and pierced the palm of the Golden Toad Old Man.

The Golden Toad Old Man's body shook and floated back. When he raised his palm, his entire palm was already bloody and fleshy, and the bones were visible.

At this moment, Situ Xuanlue finally drew his sword, and a faint blood-red ripple spread out from Situ Xuance to the surroundings, and the first to bear the brunt was Jin Chansou. The blood-red ripple passed through Jin Chansou without any hindrance, without triggering any protective qi or treasures, just like a breeze blowing on the face, but Jin Chansou's face suddenly surged with an abnormal blood-red, and Jin Chansou felt that the blood in his body was surging and seemed to break out of his body.

Jin Chansou was shocked and thought that the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" was indeed unusual. He used the "Haoran Qi" to suppress the surging blood in his body.

Situ Xuanlue saw an extra sword in his hand, which was slightly longer than the "Demon-Slaying Immortal Sword". The sword tip was as thin as a cicada's wing, and the blades on both sides were almost transparent, with only a blood line in the middle.

The sword that was just drawn was the first change of "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword". The reason why it is difficult to guard against is that this change does not directly hurt the enemy, but accelerates the circulation of qi and blood, which has the miraculous effect of healing internal injuries. However, everything has its limits. Even if it is a good medicine for curing diseases and saving lives, if it is taken too much, it will become a poison that takes people's lives. The first change of "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" is like this. It affects the qi and blood in the opponent's body, and then affects the qi with the qi and blood. If the response is wrong, the qi and blood in the body will form a big net, blocking the meridians and acupoints, and besieging the dantian, which is equivalent to trapping oneself to death. However, the Golden Toad Sou is a master of the realm of heaven and man, and he cultivates the "Haoran Qi" with almost no flaws and weaknesses. Although it is a bit tricky to deal with, it is not impossible to deal with it.

Then Situ Xuanlue held the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" in his hand, and his figure swept away, turning into a blood-colored long rainbow and rushing straight to the Golden Toad Sou.

After calming down his qi, the Golden Toad Old Man waved his sleeves and struck, like fine iron striking each other, with an unusual sound of metal and stone.

The Golden Toad Old Man frowned slightly and floated back. Situ Xuanlue followed closely behind, and the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" in his hand underwent a second transformation. The "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" began to change from real to virtual, and the entire sword body condensed into a point of blood light in an instant. At first glance, it seemed as if Situ Xuanlue only had a hilt in his hand, which was very strange. Situ Xuanlue's movements did not change, and he continued to use the sword as usual.

The most powerful move in the "Cihang Pudu Sword Canon" of the Cihang Sect is called "Ten Thousand Tribulations Buddha Light", the key to which is to hold the fire without burning the fingers, and its power lies in the speed. The sharp nails are driven into the metal and stone, and the power is concentrated at one point. The second level of the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" was also the same. It condensed at one point and its power increased greatly. With a "swish" sound, the sleeve of the Golden Toad Old Man's robe was torn by this sword. Then Situ Xuanlue stabbed the middle of the Golden Toad Old Man with a sword. This time, he did not stab the Golden Toad Old Man's shoulder, but stabbed his chest.

With a sharp sound, the Golden Toad Old Man's robe was shattered, revealing a golden armor under the outer robe.

This golden armor had no shoulder armor, arm armor, waist armor and other parts, but only protected the torso. There was also a heart-protecting mirror in the middle that could reflect the human figure. The "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" turned into a point and stabbed on this heart-protecting mirror, but failed to achieve success.

There are endless treasures on the Taoist side, and there are treasures on the Confucian side. The jade pendant of the Neo-Confucian saint given to Wang Tianxiao is just one of them. The armor on the Golden Toad Sou is also one of them. It was cast during the previous Jin Dynasty and was once a royal collection. After the Golden Horde cavalry trampled the beautiful rivers and mountains of the Jin Dynasty, this armor was lost in the rivers and lakes and fell into the hands of the Confucian sect after several twists and turns. Although it cannot be compared with the "Yin Yang Fairy Clothes", it is also a top-grade treasure. The key lies in the word "sturdy". Even if it is hit by the immortal realm, it is nothing. The only shortcoming is that this armor can only protect the upper body because of the precious material, and cannot cover the whole body, so the function is greatly reduced.

Situ Xuanlue's face changed slightly, and his body turned backwards. At the same time, the "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" in his hand underwent a third transformation. The "Blood-Sleeved Immortal Sword" turned from a point into a line, as thin as a hair, but very long, just like a very thin long whip.

Situ Xuanlue shook his wrist, and the "Long Whip" swept out, deliberately bypassing the golden armor on the torso of the Golden Toad Sou, and attacked the head and limbs of the Golden Toad Sou.

The Golden Toad Sou jumped to avoid it, and the sword energy fiercely slashed and cut on the rocks on the ground, destroying everything in its path.

The Golden Toad Sou thought he could easily defeat Situ Xuanlue, but he didn't expect to fall into such a situation. Although the Golden Toad Sou still didn't think Situ Xuanlue could beat him, he was a little annoyed in his heart.

The Golden Toad Old Man simply shattered the remaining clothes on his body, leaving only his inner garment and armor. At the same time, a long sword appeared in his hand, with a golden toad squatting directly at the tip of the sword.
