Chapter 198: Real And Fake Sword Techniques
What good had happened to make Elder Bai laugh so happily?
“Elder Bai, is one of the sect’s patriarchs still alive?”
Someone probed.
“No!”
Elder Bai shook his head.
“Elder Bai, don’t let us guess anymore. Tell us!”
The other elders were anxious.
Guess!
How could they guess?
If it wasn’t the sect’s patriarch, who else would cast such a powerful divine ability?
They looked at each other. All the True realm elders were here.
Except for the sect master.
“Eh? Where’s the sect master?”
“Isn’t he there?”
One of the elders pointed to the distance and said.
The elders scanned it with their divine consciousnesses.
They found that the sect master was standing on the mountain ridge alone, facing the wind. He held his sword and looked up at the sky without moving.
The mountain wind blew.
His clothes fluttered in the wind.
“Sect master, this is…”
“Senior Brother is comprehending. Elders, it’s best not to disturb him.” Bai Zhijing said.
His body was still blocking the elders.
“That divine ability just now was the sect master…”
Bai Zhijing nodded.
Hu ~
The elders exhaled, their faces revealing a pleasant surprise.
“This is the newly comprehended technique of the sect master? This is too amazing!”
“No, it was pa.s.sed down by a Patriarch.”
Bai Zhijing glanced at the surrounding elders and said slowly.
“A Patriarch?”
The elders looked at each other and were shocked.
Then they were overjoyed.
Then they were filled with disbelief.
How could they not know that the sect still had such a Patriarch?
“Is it really a patriarch?”
Bai Zhijing nodded.
Seeing how determined Bai Zhijing was, joy immediately returned to the faces of the elders.
“Our sect can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”
“Which Patriarch’s divine ability is so powerful!”
“Don’t ask around. This is a secret. Senior isn’t willing to tell even me. I also hope that you won’t tell anyone else. All we can say is that this patriarch is very powerful.”
“Very powerful?”
The elders began to let their imaginations run wild.
What did ‘very powerful’ mean?
At the peak of the True realm?
No!
If he was just at the peak of the True realm, it wouldn’t be enough to make Bai Zhijing smile like this.
Could it be…
Impossible!
If the sect still had such an expert, how could they be reduced to a third-rate sect?
With such an expert around, who would dare to touch the sect?
The other third-rate forces would probably do everything they could to pay tribute to ensure their safety. How could they be suppressed by the orcs?
Could it be that the patriarch who was in seclusion 300 years ago had come out?
“Elder Bai, is it the divine ability that the patriarch comprehended?”
An elder probed.
“No. This is a divine ability that our sect has had since ancient times.” Bai Zhijing said coldly.
There was finally an elder who was curious?
Hehe!
Looking at the elders guessing but not getting it, the smile on Bai Zhijing’s face grew wider.
Thinking about the past two days, she had guessed through all the potential patriarchs.
All of them were rejected.
The expressions of these elders were almost the same as those of her senior brother two days ago.
“Impossible! Among the divine abilities that have been around since ancient times, why haven’t I seen one before?”
“There are many divine abilities that you’ve never seen.”
“May I ask Elder Bai, the name of this divine ability is…”
“The Mystic Void sword method!”
Bai Zhijing replied straightforwardly.
Then, he silently observed the expressions of the few elders.
“The Mystic Void sword method, now where have I heard of it before?”
“It’s very familiar, but our sect doesn’t seem to have it! If we had it, I would have practiced it long ago.”
The elders racked their brains.
They had an impression of the name, but they couldn’t remember where they had heard it before.
“Elder Bai, you can’t be joking, right?”
“When have I ever made such a joke?” Bai Zhijing pursed his lips and said.
Think about it!
Think about it carefully!
No matter how hard you racked your brains, you wouldn’t be able to think of it.
When you think about it, you would definitely be shocked.
Think of how he looked like when he first obtained the Mystic Void sword method.
Sigh!
Forget it!
“The Mystic Void sword method, I want to check the ancient records.” One of the elders said.
“We can only check the ancient records. How can we think of it this way unless Elder Bai is willing to tell us.” As they said this, they looked at Bai Zhijing.
“Don’t look at me, I’m afraid that if I tell you, you will be embarra.s.sed.” Bai Zhijing pouted.
“What do you mean by embarra.s.sed?”
“Embarra.s.sed? I’ve lived for so long, why would I be afraid of embarra.s.sing myself?”
“Elder Bai, hurry up and tell us!”
..
Tada ~
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the mountain path behind them.
“Master, I’ve found it. I’ve found it…”
A figure ran over from afar.
He shouted as he ran.
He seemed to be in a hurry, but from the expression on his face, he didn’t seem to be in a hurry.
The group of elders turned around one after another and frowned.
“What’s the point of making such a big fuss!”
Bai Zhijing cursed.
“Uh ~”
Seeing the group of elders at the back of the mountain, Yun Yiyi was stunned for a moment.
She didn’t expect so many elders to appear at the back of the mountain.
She slowed down her footsteps and slowly walked in front of Bai Zhijing, revealing an obedient expression.
“Master, I know who this Mystic Void sword method belongs to.”
Shua ~
Several elders turned around and stared at Yun Yiyi.
Those pairs of eyes stared at Yun Yiyi like hungry wolves.
Yun Yiyi was shocked.
The pressure immediately pounced on her.
What happened?
“Who?”
Hula, the group of elders surrounded Yun Yiyi in the center.
The elders stared coldly at Yun Yiyi.
“It’s… It’s patriarch Ten Thousand Swords.”
Yun Yiyi trembled as she spoke.
Her body involuntarily shrank.
What exactly happened?
“Patriarch Ten Thousand Swords? Didn’t he die in the Land of Demon Slayers?”
“He turned everything he had into a part of a barrier and used his sword intent to stabilize the barrier, trapping the great demon and the demon refining tower. If there’s no other patriarch Ten Thousand Swords in the world, it would be him.”
Hiss
All the elders sucked in a breath of cold air.
Such a mighty figure was rarely seen in the world. Sacrificing oneself to trap a great demon was also rare in the spiritual world.
“This Mystic Void sword method is Ten Thousand Swords ancestor’s famous sword art. Didn’t they say that myriad sword ancestor’s inheritance was broken?”
“That’s right! This… how did the broken inheritance come out?”
“Ten Thousand Swords still has a living successor?”
“Impossible! Ancestor Ten Thousand Swords has always been a lone wolf and has no successor. The Mystic Void sword method is not an ordinary sword art that can be comprehended in a short period of time.”
The elders shook their heads.
Ancestor Ten Thousand Swords definitely did not have a successor.
Who would believe that ancestor Ten Thousand Swords’ inheritance had suddenly appeared out of nowhere?
“It’s fake, it’s definitely fake. Elder Bai, don’t be deceived.”
“The Mystic Void sword method has been at the fault of our sect for countless years. Now that it suddenly appeared, Hehe, even a swindler has to choose a name that is believable.”
Several elders stared at elder Bai.
They almost wrote the word “Swindler” on Bai Zhijing’s face.
Bai Zhijing smiled but did not say anything. She stared at the figure of w.a.n.g Qian ‘an in the distance. The thin figure stood on the spot for a long time but did not move at all.
A certain elder was right.
The Mystic Void sword method was not something that could be comprehended in a short period of time.
It had already been two days and senior brother had only comprehended one of the moves of the method.
This stance was still incomplete.
But this incomplete stance caused the celestial phenomenon to change, startling countless experts.
Only those with mental problems suspected that the Mystic Void sword method was fake.
After a long time, the elders gradually calmed down.
“Whether it’s the Mystic Void sword method or not, it’s not up to us to decide. Sect Master has obtained the sword art, should we really go and ask sect master?”
Two elders walked forward.
They were stopped by Bai Zhijing.
The few of them were stunned and scanned with their divine consciousnesses.
“Sect master, this is…”
“He’s still comprehending! Don’t disturb him!” Bai Zhijing said.
“This!”
Swoos.h.!.+
Suddenly, a wave of sword will emerged from w.a.n.g Qian’an’s body.
Inside and outside the sect, all weapons in the hands of countless disciples and elders trembled.
“This…”
“Combined with the abnormal phenomena from before and the current situation, does this mean that the Mystic Void sword method that the sect master obtained might actually be real?”
