Chapter 666: Sword Extreme and Potential Reversal
Chapter 661 – Sword Extreme and Potential Reversal
At that time, Shuo Feng seemed to have completely mastered the Heaven’s Qi [Sword]. From the beginning to the end, no loss of control had ever been seen.
However, unlike now, at that time, facing Su Xiaomei’s continuous attacks, Shuo Feng only defended, never taking the initiative to attack.
“A white light that bounced back all of the enemy’s attacks. It’s even more powerful than the original opponent’s moves.”
“The characteristics are the same as the wooden sword. It’s just that it can’t attack on its own accord. ……”
Li Fan seemed to be aware of the reason why Shuo Feng was never able to fully control the [Sword].
After thinking about it, the other party would always have to comprehend it on their own anyway, so they might as well do themselves a favor.
So he stared at the wooden sword in Shuo Feng’s hand and frowned slightly, “According to common sense, you are a heavenly talent, even if it’s the legendary Qi of Heaven, it wouldn’t be so difficult to maneuver.”
Shuo Feng thought deeply and nodded, saying, “I also have many puzzles about this.”
Li Fan pondered for a moment and seemed to say indistinctly, “I have a guess, I don’t know if it’s right or not.”
“Oh? Fellow Daoist but there is no harm in saying so.” A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, although he did not think in his heart that Li Fan could say anything true, Shuo Feng still replied politely.
“Sword, is a killing weapon. Ancient sword cultivators were good at taking someone’s head from a thousand miles away;one sword can break all laws. It is understandable that the law of the sword is incarnated in the world as gold, jade, or stone, but why is it a wooden sword?”
Li Fan raised a question, and with that, Shuo Feng frowned and his expression became serious.
“I once heard that in the ancient sword cultivation sects, the disciples within the sect would only use wooden swords for competition if they were not competing for victory or defeat and were just purely sparring. Therefore ……”
Li Fan paused and said in a deep voice, “I think that [the sword] is the extreme of the world’s sword path, and the so-called extreme of things is the opposite. So all the qualities of the mortal world’s sword are reversed in the body of the Heaven’s Wonder [Sword].”
“To kill becomes not to kill, to seek defeat is to win. Not attacking is winning, and not moving is invincible!”
Li Fan’s words were like a loud bell and a thunderbolt from a clear sky, causing Shuo Feng to freeze on the spot.
With a trace of color in his eyes, he re-examined the wooden sword in his hand, as if he had fallen into some kind of metaphysical and mysterious state.
Like a stone statue standing frozen, his mouth kept muttering and whispering something.
“It seems that he was already close to getting on the threshold, and now that I pointed it out, he had an instant epiphany.” Li Fan quietly operated his Xuan Bird Avatar and looked towards the top of Shuo Feng’s head.
Only to see a column of purple smoke, rising up to the sky. It was like a spiral tornado, condensing but not dispersing. It was clearly the very image of top level qi, and it was only half a step weaker than Xu Ke.
The smoke column of qi luck is strong and incomparable, not moved by external objects. Even the Kap Luck Domain transformed by Han Yi’s statue had no way to affect it.
“That’s right, without great fortune, how can one cast a good birth. What other cultivators can’t have even after struggling for their entire lives, he hasn’t lacked since he was born.” Looking at Shuo Feng’s amazingly counter-intuitive luck, Li Fan could not help but sigh with emotion.
“In this Xuan Huang Realm, it’s not often that two Harmonized Immortal Exalists choose to give birth to an heir.” Recalling the rumors about Shuo Feng as well as his mother, Li Fan could only be envious.
It was said that after knowing that there was no hope of attaining immortality, Immortal Exalt Crimson Snow decided to pin her hopes on her offspring. In order to cultivate the best offspring, she chose the old-fashioned but effective method, a martial arts competition.
Any strong Harmonized Dao practitioner who could beat her could be married to her. Whoever could become a Harmonized Dao cultivator was not a one-in-a-million genius. The combination of both sides’ excellent bloodlines, coupled with both parents pouring in their resources to cultivate them, might be able to become another Everlasting Habitat powerhouse in heaven and earth.
The world shook as the news spread. Countless cultivators held the mentality of eating and watching, wanting to witness a dragon fight between Harmonization cultivators. However, the result was a huge disappointment.
There were only a handful of responders in the world, and it took almost a year before a Harmonized Dao cultivator came to the door to challenge him. In the end, he failed.
Only then did the vast number of cultivators realize that there were only so many Harmonious Dao cultivators in the entire Xuanhuang Realm. Whoever was able to successfully merge with the Dao was extremely ambitious. If not for special circumstances, who would easily give up the ultimate goal of attaining immortality. Furthermore, although Crimson Snow Immortal’s actual combat power could only be considered medium amongst the Harmonization cultivators, she was extremely good at refining weapons. With a treasure protecting her body, how easy would it be to defeat her? Without a certain degree of certainty, rashly going forward to challenge her would only be self-defeating.
Therefore, it was precisely because of these factors that overlapped, which led to the Crimson Snow Immortal’s martial arts competition to fall into an extremely lukewarm situation.
Just when everyone thought that this matter would eventually fade into oblivion and end hastily.
A matter that shocked everyone’s eyes once again occurred.
Immortal Empress Crimson Snow was suddenly pregnant! And other than herself, no one knew who the father of the child was!
She also shied away from this matter and announced that the matchmaking competition was officially null and void.
From then on, it was all about nurturing the child in his womb, that is, Shuo Feng up.
There was no doubt that the one who could make Immortal Empress Fei Xue pregnant in silence must be a terrifyingly strong Harmonious Dao Realm cultivator. There should be no mistaking that.
Whatever reason he chose to conceal his identity. That was unknown.
“Not only is there a Harmonization Realm mother, there’s also a father who hides in the shadows and doesn’t reveal his true identity.”
“It’s no wonder Shuo Feng he’s so confident that the world is as big as it can be.”
While Li Fan was secretly pondering, Shuo Feng had slowly awakened from his epiphany.
A faint color of joy appeared on his face, and after taking a deep breath, his face gradually calmed down.
The hands holding the wooden sword no longer trembled, and as a mysterious aura descended and locked onto his body.
The Heaven’s Strange [Sword] turned into a soft white light and slowly melted into his body.
In an instant, it was as if Shuo Feng’s body had lost its sharpness.
From being sharp, he became ordinary.
Even the purple column of qi smoke above his head slowly faded under Li Fan’s gaze. Eventually, it turned into an unobtrusive white color, and if one did not take a closer look at it, it would be easy to ignore it.
Shuo Feng looked towards Li Fan, who then put away his Xuan Bird Avatar and arched his hand.
“Congratulations, fellow Daoist, for returning to the basics and accomplishing the divine power!”
“What Divine Skill Great Success, I really can’t call it that. But …… “Shuo Feng courteously made a gesture of invitation.
“I also hope that fellow Daoist will test the sword for me!”
Li Fan naturally understood what he meant.
With a flick of his fingers, several more blue water swords flew towards Shuo Feng.
Shuo Feng had his hands behind his back and did not dodge.
When these water swords were about to blast onto his body, a white light appeared.
The water swords fell back as much as they could.
