This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 600 - 73: Divine Anomaly: Returning to Nothingness_2
Chapter 600: Chapter 73: Divine Anomaly: Returning to Nothingness_2
And then, ripples emerged on the many jade stone screen walls standing all around, from which scenes began to surface.
The screens had now revealed the entire expanse of the Yellow Sand Realm.
This was a small desert realm nearly a hundred miles in radius.
As for the landing spots of the two combatants, they were generated in the most common form of encounters in Cultivator magical combat: random!
Unfortunately for them, their landing points were no more than ten miles apart.
Which is to say, they hardly had any time to familiarize themselves with the terrain before the battle was already on the brink of erupting.
Dispensing with any pleasantries, filled with the frustration and anger of being targeted, ‘Seven Stars Hand’ Hou Tonghai burst forth.
Twinkling stars sparked in his hands, with seven bright stars forming the shape of a spoon, dazzling to behold.
This was a branch of the True Intent of the Stars, the Big Dipper Intent.
With hand as the spoon, Hou Tonghai leaped into the air, soaring straight toward Ye Mo.
Ye Mo, with a smile on his face, watched Hou Tonghai charge at him. With a clang, a massive red heavy sword appeared in his hand.
The Blood Slaughter Knife!
As a Body Cultivator, how could Ye Mo fear close combat?
Seeing Hou Tonghai charging at him, he was eager for the fight, content to stand his ground with knife in hand.
One swiftly dashed forward like lightning; the other stood immovable as a mountain, awaiting.
In the blink of an eye, the two figures closed the distance to a hundred yards.
In the next instant, the Seven Stars flew out, while three layers of golden light appeared on Ye Mo’s body.
The Three Turns of the Buddhist Sect, a top-notch defensive Subtle Technique.
The previously tranquil Ye Mo finally moved, wielding the Blood Slaughter Knife, as heavy as a thousand catties, and chopped toward the shooting Seven Stars.
The sword technique was heavy and powerful, but in Ye Mo’s hands, the Blood Slaughter Knife was as agile as a sword, trailing a series of afterimages.
Dragon Elephant Martial Technique Divine Skill: Wood Burning Sword Technique.
Once mastered, this sword technique involved delivering eighty-one rapid chops beside a piece of Spiritual Wood without damaging the wood in the slightest, while the hidden power within the blade would ignite the wood, hence its name.
Thus, this sword technique was known for its speed and Dark Power.
Clang clang clang!
The deafening sounds of collision instantly erupted.
In a few exchanges, the two passed by each other.
Although the Seven Stars in Hou Tonghai’s hands still twinkled as before, he could feel his blood as if it were about to ignite, extremely uncomfortable, evidently injured by the Dark Power within the Wood Burning Sword Technique.
Meanwhile, Ye Mo was surrounded by three layers of golden light, solid and unshaken, truly without a scratch.
The gap between a Taoist Sect and top-tier Sects was not so easily bridged.
Hou Tonghai gritted his teeth, his eyes full of stubbornness, unwilling to admit defeat.
He controlled the Seven Stars to fly out, revolving around him like constellations, then charged at Ye Mo once more with the stars in tow.
Ding ding ding!
Sword clashed against sword, emitting a series of crisp sword sounds.
Within the Causality Tower, two silhouettes crossed each other, then stood back to back.
A deep, bone-visible wound appeared on Lu Qingshan’s arm.
Blood was gushing out, flowing down his wrist, onto the Dragon Sparrow Sword’s hilt, and then sliding onto the sword blade.
“Young Master…” Qin Yitian was immensely distressed.
Lu Qingshan remained silent, slowly turning around to face the similarly sword-wielding evil figure opposite him.
Gui Yuan True Venerable.
The Gui Yuan True Venerable, whose strength had been amplified several times over.
The Gui Yuan True Venerable was smirking evilly at Lu Qingshan, “Hehehehe—”

Lu Qingshan’s face was as pale as paper, but his eyes were dense with blood vessels.
Prolonged combat had nearly pushed his mind and spirit to the limit.
Even so, he still had no intention of backing down.
Lu Qingshan stomped his foot, his figure proactively sprinting toward Gui Yuan True Venerable.
Sword Qi burst forth from within the Dragon Sparrow, dragging a long tail, and collided with Gui Yuan True Venerable’s Sword Artifact, the sound tearing at one’s eardrums.
In the blink of an eye, they fought dozens of close-quarters exchanges.
Chopping and lifting, stabbing and picking, each deployed their skills.
Lu Qingshan excelled in Divine Foresight, his near-omniscient close combat and sword skills were exquisitely refined.
Gui Yuan True Venerable surpassed with strength, a magnitude greater than Lu Qingshan’s, a single force overpowering many strategies.
Lu Qingshan could feel his disadvantage in the struggle, but the evil realm of the earth and sky, though simulated, only showed a part. The terrain was too narrow for employing the Flying Sword to face the enemy.
Left with no choice, he could only meet the battle with an External Sword.
Gui Yuan True Venerable advanced with his sword, his presence oppressively forceful.
Lu Qingshan’s pupils contracted sharply, another sword extended, while his mind spurred the True Spirit within his sea of consciousness.
The Green Snake was invoked, at the expense of depleting much of his Divine Sense.
The next moment, like a spirit snake spitting, a Sword Qi hissed forth from the Dragon Sparrow Sword.
The Sword Qi moved against the wind, morphing into a Green Snake and confronting Gui Yuan True Venerable.
Hiss hiss hiss!
Gui Yuan True Venerable stepped forward, his sword blazing with a murderous aura, delivering an even fiercer slash loaded with Sword Light, cutting through the Green Snake.
The slash was swift as a ghostly wind.
Wherever the Green Snake went, it was severed by the slash, gushing to both sides and failing to affect him in the slightest.
With such ferocity, he actually cut off the Green Snake!
“Right now, you are too weak for me, hehehe!” Gui Yuan True Venerable said with his signature chilling laughter, sneering sinisterly.
Lu Qingshan felt somewhat helpless.
At this point, it was a mistake not to fight because Gui Yuan True Venerable’s strength was now well beyond what a Nascent Soul Cultivator could contend with. That Lu Qingshan had managed to hold on until now was already extremely remarkable.
Could it be… he had to use that move?
Lu Qingshan felt uncertain in his heart.
“Young Master, if you don’t want to use the Spell Breaking, then don’t…” Qin Yitian seemed to have read Lu Qingshan’s hesitation and her crisp voice echoed in his heart.
Indeed, it would be easy for Lu Qingshan to leave the Causality Tower, all he had to do was utilize the Dragon Sparrow Breaking Spell.
