Chapter 169 Identity

6\/9 Zhang Yuelu used all his strength to push the paper sword in his hand. It was easy to break gold and jade, and it was not impossible to penetrate mountains and split rocks. The old man in black was not known for his physique. The black-clothed old man had already moved on his own, blocking all the paper swords. It was the "Three Thousand Armors of Green Ink" in the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin".

After a fierce fight, Zhang Yuelu was unable to hurt the old man in black at all.

Seeing that he was unsuccessful again, Zhang Yuelu moved suddenly and turned behind the old man in black, stabbing him in the back with "Purple Cloud". The overwhelming sword energy was like a tsunami, filling the four directions and covering the eight poles. Countless purple thunders appeared faintly in the air. For a while, the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth was all sucked and driven by the sword energy.

The old man in black let Zhang Yuelu stab him in the back with a sword, and he remained motionless.

Zhang Yuelu's face first turned red, then suddenly white. He had used all his strength in this sword, but he found that his true energy was being sucked into the black-clothed old man's body continuously, like a mud cow entering the sea, without a trace.

Zhang Yuelu said in shock: "'Eclipse Great Method'?"

At this time, Zhang Yuelu had already guessed the identity of the black-clothed old man. After all, the "Eclipse Great Method" is not easy to practice, just like the "Xiaoyao Six Void Tribulations". Except for some geniuses, it is not possible to practice successfully by comparing with the book. Generally, there must be a guide. The last person who used the "Eclipse Great Method" was Wang Jiaoying. Who taught Wang Jiaoying? The black-clothed old man would not be Wang Jiaohe, and his identity was already obvious.

At this time, Zhang Yuelu stabbed the black-clothed old man with a sword, which was exactly what the black-clothed old man wanted. The "Eclipse Great Method" not only made Zhang Yuelu unable to move, but also continuously absorbed Zhang Yuelu's true energy for his own use.

The old man in black smiled calmly and said, "Zhang Yuelu, this sword is still not good enough. It would be better if it was Zhang Wuliang or Zhang Jucheng."

Zhang Yuelu said coldly, "Master Sun, Master Sun, Sun Heyu, you finally can't sit still! You are really getting stronger with age, and you can't be underestimated."

The old man in black didn't answer, but just accelerated the "Eclipse Method" to absorb all of Zhang Yuelu's true essence into his body. As for the disadvantages of the "Eclipse Method", it was not a big problem for the old man in black who had a higher realm.

Zhang Yuelu had no choice but to follow suit. Although she didn't have the "evil fire" of Izanno, she had the "Xiaoyao Six Void Tribulations" passed down by the Earth Master. It was a pity that the "Xiaoyao Six Void Tribulations" had a huge disadvantage. It was difficult, but it was mainly used against people whose realms were not as good as hers and people whose realms were equal to hers. Once she faced people whose realms were higher than hers, it would not be so useful, and there was even a hidden danger of backlash.

As expected, after the power of the six calamities entered the body of the old man in black, it disappeared without a trace.

Suddenly, a Buddhist chanting sound came, with the six-character mantra and a faint female singing voice, which was crisp and pleasant, making people's killing intent dissipate, and their hostility disappear, and they wanted to give up all resistance.

Under such a huge Buddhist sound, even the old man in black felt that the Buddhist sound was knocking on his heart. He was in a trance and interrupted the "Eclipse Method", allowing Zhang Yuelu to escape.

"It is the semi-immortal objects of the Cihang lineage, the 'Six-Character Bright Mantra Sword' and the 'Great Compassion Thunder Sound Sword'." The old man in black immediately understood and used his power to resist. He was only slightly dazed and then completely came back to his senses. However, Zhang Yuelu still seized this opportunity and stabbed out with a sword, pointing directly at the throat of the old man in black.

The old man in black raised his left hand, and twisted his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger in turn, like petals blooming layer by layer, rotating like a wheel, and directly caught the paper sword stabbing at the throat.

At this moment, the fragile goblet in the hands of Yuheng Star Lord turned into countless fragments, splashing along with the wine in the glass.

At this moment, the transparent glass fragments and the bright red wine lost their colors and turned into pure black and white, maintaining the splashing state and freezing.

It was as if time stopped at this moment.

The black and white turned into waves and spread in all directions. Everything turned into black and white, only Yuheng Star Lord and Zhang Yuelu still maintained vivid colors.

In an instant, the paper sword in Zhang Yuelu's hand directly decomposed and turned into countless small paper swords to stab the throat of the old man in black.

At the same time, Yuheng Star Lord shook his sleeves, regardless of the loss of his cultivation, and used eleven drops of blood to turn into eleven black-armored warriors.

Eleven people formed a formation, the first two held a long card and a rattan card. The next two held wolf whisks, which were shaped like spears, with the top cut obliquely into a point, and sharp branches left around. Each wolf whisk was about ten feet long. Then came four spearmen holding spears, two on each side, to take care of the shieldmen and wolf-whipmen on the left and right sides in front. Following them were two black-armored warriors holding crossbows.

This was the famous mandarin duck formation in the army, but it was learned by Yuheng Star Lord and used for his own purposes.

Under the attack from both sides, the "Three Thousand Armors of Green Ink" only lasted for a moment before it completely collapsed and dissipated.

However, the old man in black was at a higher level of cultivation, and he immediately broke free from control and directly launched the Hedao realm. A huge true energy like the sun and the moon hanging in the air spread around, directly bouncing the paper sword transformed by the "Wuxiang Paper" away. The old man in black seemed to have become a true god between heaven and earth, looking down on the world.

That was fine, but thirteen black shadows gradually appeared.

In a sense, the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" is like raising poisonous insects and refining corpses. If you are not careful, it will backfire on you. Moreover, each sword is connected to each other, just like the various meridians in the human body. If you practice all thirteen swords, it is equivalent to opening up all the meridians to form a large circle, which is unobstructed. The sword intent of the thirteen swords gathers together, just like a living thing, giving birth to spirituality, that is, the inner demon. If the sword master cannot subdue it, he will become the host sword slave of this sword intent, like a walking corpse.

The essence of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" also lies in this. There is a mysterious connection between each sword. The more sword styles of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" are practiced, the greater the power. However, in contrast, the independent sword intent of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" will be stronger. When the power of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" reaches its peak, it is when the sword master can no longer control the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" and is eroded and becomes a sword slave.

Although these sword slaves have turned into zombies, their cultivation of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" is still there. As long as someone controls them, they can exert great power.

Because of this, the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" is divided into two veins, "Sword" and "Heart". The top unique skill of the sword lineage, the "Taiyin Sword Formation", must be composed of twelve sword slaves. In essence, the sword master controls the sword slaves to form a sword formation. Each sword slave corresponds to one of the styles. The sword master uses the last style to control the remaining twelve styles and fully exert the full power of the thirteen swords.

However, after the reconstruction of the Taoist sect, Xuansheng integrated the inheritance of the Five Immortals and separated the skills from the supernatural powers. There are very few people who lose control of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin". In addition, the Taoist sect strictly prohibits the refining of sword slaves, so the "Taiyin Sword Formation" is rare.

But I didn't expect that today, the "Taiyin Sword Formation" will reappear in the world.

The existence of these sword slaves is a great sin.

Thirteen shadows with no form and no impermanence are scattered in every corner, wandering around, and they don't need the old man in black to control them. They are like living things.

This is the strangeness of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin". If you can fully master the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin", it is equivalent to taming a beast and making it your helper. If you are attacked by the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin", your body and soul will be taken away by the sword, and you will become a puppet of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin", just like a ghost who died under the claws of a tiger and can only serve the tiger.

The thirteen sword slaves faced the "sowing beans into soldiers" of the Yuheng Star Lord, and they destroyed the black-armored warriors in a blink of an eye.

This is also reasonable. These black-armored warriors are just the essence and blood of the Yuheng Star Lord, while the thirteen sword slaves are living people, but their minds have been taken away by the inner demons, which are external forces.

Zhang Yuelu felt a little regretful at this time. Qi Xuansu was not here. If he was there, the two of them would join forces again, and with the Yuheng Star Lord, they could really keep this old guy here.

Zhang Yuelu only had "Zixia" at this time, and he used all his strength to activate the "Dragon and Tiger Sword Art". With one sword pointing to the sky, the entire sky began to gradually turn purple, and soon the entire sky turned into a deep purple, rippling with circles of violent ripples visible to the naked eye, and then rapidly expanded.

But that was all.

Without the cooperation of "Qingyun", "Zixia" alone could not exert the power of the immortal, and could only attract purple air.

The purple air covered the sky, and the sky at this time was like an inverted purple lake. This purple lake was still pressing down, and the sparkling "lake surface" seemed to be within reach. Unfortunately, there was no green sword light, but it turned into rolling purple thunder.

"Five Thunders Tianxin Zhengfa".

The old man in black looked up at the sky, and his sleeves seemed to be rustling because of the countless wind and thunder.

He was not too afraid, but just raised his hand gently.

Thirteen black shadows raised their swords at the same time, pointing directly at the sky.

The thunder light swept, and the shadows were heavy.

Two waves, one bright and one dark, kept colliding. Wherever the lightning passed, countless shadows disappeared into ashes, and the rosy clouds were like tides. Every time it surged, there were dark sword shadows that melted like ice and snow and turned into nothing.

But the shadows never died. In the process of continuous extinction, they were constantly reorganized and regenerated. One side of the "Taiyin Sword Formation" was never really destroyed.

The two colors of light and darkness were repeatedly replaced, constantly eroding and offsetting each other.

After all, it was not a combination of two swords. Although Zhang Yuelu had the help of a semi-immortal object, her realm was not as good as others, and she soon showed a trend of defeat.

The face of the Yuheng Star Lord was gloomy, and her eyes became extremely deep. At the same time, six roulettes slowly emerged around her and rotated endlessly, corresponding to the heavenly way, human way, Shura way, hungry ghost way, hell way, and animal way in the six reincarnations.

At the same time as the sword light collapsed, the Yuheng Star Lord waved his sleeves, and the six roulettes began to rotate rapidly, forming a small world that existed in reality, covering the old man in black.

The sword light and thirteen sword shadows of the old man in black suddenly stopped moving. But if you look closely, you can find that they are not still, but are trapped in a continuous cycle. No matter how fast they are, they are spinning in the same place, and the result of returning to the origin is repeated.

In the battle between masters, the victory or defeat is just a matter of millimeters. Yuheng Star Master used all means to forcibly hold back the old man in black in order to create an opportunity for Zhang Yuelu.
