Suddenly, a ray of light appeared in Lin Yi's hand, and a frantic voice rang out, "Master Lin, please save me..."
The sound was quickly cut off.
Lin Yi calculated with his fingers and determined that Zhao Ling'er's location was rapidly changing; she had been captured by the Great Demon King.
"It should be the Sword Saint of Mount Shu, right?" Lin Yi said somewhat uncertainly.
The white clouds accelerated their flight, chasing after the moving target.
Soon after, Zhao Ling'er's location stopped moving, indicating that she had reached her destination.
Lin Yi arrived on a cloud, and saw that the distant mountains were green and blue, like several layers of ink wash. A gentle breeze caressed his face, carrying with it a faint fragrance of the mountains and forests.
Ahead, the endless stone steps wind their way up the mountainside, and on the misty peaks stand a series of gray palaces and temples, while a few patches of white snow add to the ancient and desolate atmosphere of the verdant landscape.
As the clouds dispersed, Lin Yi landed safely with Caiyi.
Before the majestic mountain gate, the three ancient characters "Shushan School" stand tall and elegant above the lintel.
Caiyi followed Lin Yi up the stone steps, which were slippery with residual snow, while faint white clouds drifted past them.
Lin Yi's robes fluttered, making him appear like a celestial being.
A tall and imposing figure stood before the gate of Shushan Mountain.
The man had a full head of thick white hair, neatly tied up, with deep and well-defined features, but his overly sharp eyes made him appear somewhat aloof.
"Guests from afar, please." A thunderous voice rang out, almost deafening.
Caiyi swayed slightly, then a stream of clear water flowed into her body, allowing her to regain her balance.
Lin Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "But my guest is the kind of unwelcome guest that the host family dislikes the most."
A belated post-launch message
I've been wanting to write something, but I didn't know where to begin. It's finally published! Thank you to all my friends for your support along the way, and thank you to my editor, Blue Light, for your support.
From the very beginning, this was a novel for my own enjoyment. Everyone has their own different hobbies. I like to write things in my spare time, and it's my honor if someone likes it.
If you're willing to read it, please support it; if you don't, that's fine too. The world is so big, there's bound to be a novel you'll enjoy reading. Let's meet again someday.
Okay, that's settled then.
It's being typed, please wait a moment.
Please refresh the page after the content is updated to get the latest update!
Chapter 156 Defeating the Sword Saint
Dugu Yuyun looked up at the sky and said calmly, "When an unwelcome guest arrives, he must first question the sword in my hand."
The smile on Lin Yi's face disappeared, and he said, "I owe that young lady two favors. If you insist on not releasing her, don't blame me for being rude."
"Slaying demons and eliminating evil is the duty of the disciples of Mount Shu. There is no room for negotiation on this matter," Dugu Yuyun said resolutely.
Lin Yi sneered, "Do you think the descendants of Goddess Nuwa are monsters?"
Dugu Yuyun avoided the question, saying only, "I only believe what I see."
If negotiations break down, then let's settle things with swords and fists.
The power of discourse does not lie with the mouthpiece, but only with the strong.
Lin Yi waved his sleeve, taking Caiyi into his Small Universe Realm, and said softly, "Please."
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew into the sky.
Dugu Yuyun nodded slightly and followed. In his view, although the fellow Daoist before him was bewitched by the demon, he was not inherently evil and there was still hope for him to be saved.
The two chose to fight above the Gale Layer, and among the disciples of Shu Mountain, there were very few qualified to witness it.
Lin Yi glanced around and saw the Drunken Sword Immortal standing on a wine gourd with Li Xiaoyao, watching the battle from afar.
Li Xiaoyao really wanted to go over and ask Lin Yi how things were at home after he was taken away by the Drunken Sword Immortal, and whether his aunt was worried and sad... but in the end, he could only think about it.
Lin Yi reached out and summoned layers upon layers of sword energy around him, seemingly endless, filling most of the sky.
"The Shushan Ten Thousand Swords Technique is renowned throughout the world. I possess a Ten Thousand Swords Illusion Array. Please, sir, take a look." Lin Yi vanished into the sword array, his voice echoing distantly, ethereal and elusive, impossible to discern.
"Clang!"
Dugu Yuyun drew his sword, its three-foot blade reflecting the light of the sun high in the sky, as if golden flames were flowing across its surface.
Golden sword shadows appeared one after another, and thousands of sword lights swept towards the opposite sword formation like a tide.
The Thousand Swords Illusionary Array versus the Thousand Swords Technique.
Lin Yi did not activate the Taixu Robe, but relied solely on his own magic power to operate the Myriad Swords Illusion Array.
Dugu Yuyun's cultivation has reached the fourth level, but he is not an unchallengeable target.
Lin Yi felt a surge of excitement; a long-dormant passion welled up within him. To fight and win, to transcend himself, to elevate his life…
This is the ultimate secret of martial arts.
Although his primary focus is on cultivating immortality and seeking the Dao, this does not prevent him from exploring other fields, verifying what he has learned, drawing inferences from one instance to another, and seeking to prove the Great Dao.
