After leaving the Illusion Moon Cave, Li Yao hadn't gone far when he saw a withered old man dressed in white, holding a broom, standing quietly in front of him.
Wan Jianyi, the sweeping monk of Qingyun Sect!
Li Yao immediately realized the identity of the old man in front of him.
Indeed, the old man before us is Wan Jianyi, who 'died' many years ago.
Li Yao broke into the Illusion Moon Cave and took the Immortal Execution Sword, which alerted Wan Jianyi.
Therefore, Wan Jianyi rushed over immediately.
When Wan Jianyi saw Li Yao's appearance clearly, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"That old thief Duanmu?"
Wan Jianyi never expected that the person who broke into the Illusion Moon Cave would be the Old Ancestor Duanmu of the Demonic Sect.
A hundred years ago, members of the Demonic Sect such as Ancestor Duanmu, the Blood-Sucking Demon, and Bai Duzi suffered great losses at the hands of Wan Jianyi, being beaten so badly that they had to flee in all directions.
Now that Li Yao has transformed into the Old Ancestor Duanmu, he naturally has to pretend to be someone who is extremely hostile towards his enemies.
A flame of resentment ignited in Li Yao's eyes as he roared, "Wan Jianyi, you treacherous dog, you're still alive!"
"You old scoundrel Duanmu, what are you doing here?"
Wan Jianyi demanded sharply.
"Of course, we'll take your Qingyun Sect's most prized treasure, the Zhuxian Sword!"
Li Yao wore a smug, wicked grin.
"You've already stolen the Immortal Execution Sword?"
Wan Jianyi stared at Li Yao suspiciously.
"Of course!"
Li Yao grinned smugly.
Since he has transformed into the appearance of the Demonic Sect's Old Ancestor Duanmu, he should naturally have the demeanor of a member of the Demonic Sect.
"impossible!"
Wan Jianyi said decisively, "There is an Illusion Moon Barrier outside the Illusion Moon Cave. It is difficult for anyone other than the sect leader to enter."
Believe it or not!
Li Yao shrugged, then a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he shouted, "You dog, I will settle the score with you today for the grudge from a hundred years ago."
Before he finished speaking, he reached out and drew a longsword that had been transformed from the Overlord Spear.
On that day at Liubo Mountain, he saw that the old ancestor Duanmu was wielding a long sword.
That's why he turned the Overlord Spear into a longsword.
With the longsword in hand, a faint blue light flowed across its blade, exuding an evil and sharp aura.
This is the aura of a soul devourer.
He intentionally revealed the aura of soul devouring, giving the longsword a more sinister feel.
"You old thief Duanmu, I failed to eliminate you back then, but today I will act on behalf of Heaven and eradicate you, you old thief!"
Wan Jianyi's expression turned fierce. He brandished his broom, and suddenly a dazzling emerald light shone, covering a radius of ten feet around him. He unleashed a fierce and incomparably powerful beam of light.
"As expected of Wan Jianyi!"
Feeling the overwhelming offensive, Li Yao secretly praised it.
Wan Jianyi was a prodigy, exceptionally talented and brilliant. A hundred years ago, he and four other disciples from the Qingyun Sect broke into the Demonic Sect.
He was all alone, charging ahead and storming into the Demonic Sect's temple, where he routed the Demonic Sect, who fled in disarray.
Back then, even Dao Xuan was no match for Wan Jianyi.
Therefore, Li Yao dared not underestimate Wan Jianyi.
He raised the longsword in his hand, and poured a surge of powerful spiritual energy into the blade, causing it to shine brightly and become incredibly dazzling.
An incomparably sharp aura emanated from the sword.
The next moment, the longsword changed unpredictably, and streaks of sword energy appeared, swirling around the blade.
As the spell changed, a terrifying sword intent erupted from the longsword.
Li Yao charged forward fearlessly, brandishing his longsword and engaging Wan Jianyi in direct combat.
The sword energy pierced the air, whistling as it arrived, carrying an extremely sharp aura. Its speed was as fast as lightning, one sword strike after another, making it impossible to defend against.
After several moves, Wan Jianyi's expression changed drastically.
Because Li Yao's sword strikes came one after another, each one stronger than the last, surging like a tidal wave, he felt immense pressure and was struggling to keep up.
"How is that possible?"
"How could this old thief Duanmu's cultivation level have become so unfathomable?"
"For the past hundred years, although I have been hiding here, I have never stopped cultivating."
"Now, I'm finding it hard to withstand the old scoundrel Duanmu's attacks!"
"This is unbelievable!"
Wan Jianyi was secretly surprised.
Is the Demonic Cult really that powerful now?
He didn't believe in this nonsense!
As a result, his spiritual power surged, and the broom in his hand became like a divine sword, slashing through the air.
boom!
A beam of emerald-green light struck the ground, causing the earth and rocks to crumble and a huge crack to appear. The residual spiritual energy spread outwards, snapping several large trees in half.
When Wan Jian saw Li Yao easily dodge, his brows furrowed even more.
At that moment, the sound of fierce fighting came from the direction of Yuqing Palace.
It seems the Demonic Sect has already begun its attack on the Qingyun Sect.
"I'm not playing with you anymore, it's over!"
Li Yao's expression hardened, and his sword aura, several meters long and radiant with light, surged toward Wan Jianyi, carrying with it an incomparably violent spiritual power.
Wan Jianyi began to cast a spell, and his broom hovered in front of him, vibrating before emitting light to block Li Yao's sword energy.

boom!
Li Yao's sword energy collided with the broom floating in front of Wan Jianyi, unleashing a violent surge of spiritual energy that spread outwards.
"puff!"
Wan Jianyi was startled, feeling the sword strike coming with overwhelming force, breaking through his defenses and then erupting like a tidal wave, rushing towards him.
He coughed up blood and was thrown back by the force of the impact.
Luck Points +58!
Spiritual energy +61!

The True Technique for Slaying Demons and Gods *1!
...
I've finally obtained the true secret to slaying demons and gods.
The sword that slays demons and gods and the sword that slays dragons are a match made in heaven.
Without the Dragon-Slaying Sword to slay demons and gods, its full power cannot be unleashed.
Without the Dragon-Slaying Sword, slaying demons and gods is simply a wasted effort.
The techniques for slaying ghosts and gods are different from the Divine Sword and Thunder Control Technique.
Anyone with a high level of Taoist cultivation can activate the Divine Sword Thunder Control Technique; Cangsong Daoist can, Tian Buyi can, and Lu Xueqi can too.
However, the power to slay demons and gods belongs only to the owner of the Dragon-Slaying Sword.
Wan Jianyi once used this move to sweep across the wilderness, single-handedly charging into the Wilderness Temple and shaking the Demonic Sect.
Like the Divine Sword Thunder Control Technique, the Demon-Slaying Technique is one of the four true sword techniques of the Qingyun Sect.
Besides these two true techniques, there are two other techniques.
One of the true techniques is the 'Seven Star Sword Style True Technique'.
However, this true technique is a unique skill passed down through generations of Qingyun Sect leaders. It originated from Ancestor Qingye and was passed down to Tianchengzi's generation. It is known that only Tianchengzi and Daoxuan Zhenren have mastered it.
The remaining secret technique was not mentioned in the original text.
Presumably, this true technique was too difficult to master and has long been lost.
The Seven Star Sword Style True Technique is also an extremely powerful divine skill, difficult to master but incredibly powerful.
If used in conjunction with the powerful magic weapon 'Seven Star Sword', a secret treasure passed down through the Tongtian Peak lineage, it can draw upon the power of the stars and possess unpredictable might even against ghosts and gods.
It is said that only the leader of the Qingyun Sect can wield the Seven Star Sword.
I wonder if the Seven Star Sword is currently in Dao Xuan's hands? Has it been passed on to Xiao Yicai, Dao Xuan's designated successor?
Li Yao glanced at Wan Jianyi, who was seriously injured and unconscious on the ground, then turned and left in a flash.
"Someone else is coming!"
When Li Yao arrived at the three-way intersection, he sensed several auras approaching.
Soon, he saw Lu Xueqi and Song Daren, along with a young man he didn't recognize, escorting an old man in a dark green Taoist robe as they walked towards him.
