Chapter 1554: Chapter 93 Teacher
Chaotic Slash!
The heavens and earth dimmed!
In the eyes of the numerous Cultivators within Banqiao City, the thirty-plus Class IV True Martial Cultivators who arrived first, and the vast True Martial Army merely a few miles away from the city, it seemed as though the entire sky had shrunk under the dominance of this single slash!
Of course, the sky could not truly shrink, so there could only be one explanation.
âHow immense!â
âWhat an immense blade!â
Such a description seemed empty and banal, yet at this moment, it was the sole, most direct feeling in the hearts of all the Cultivators and True Martial Cultivators present!
In the direction where the blade was descending, the tattoo-faced burly man turned pale with fright!
He was blessed with extraordinary Talent, walking paths that generations of unparalleled Cultivators had failed to reach even after millennia, and he had accomplished it in less than a century.
But fortune and calamity go hand in hand. Despite his rapid progress, his foundation remained thin. Facing this blade, he could discern no intricacies, only an overwhelming dread that made his Qi and Blood tremble, his very spirit nearly collapsing!
Gripped by terror, he was momentarily so shaken that he couldnât even think to dodge, standing frozen in place.
Even someone like him, a Class V True Martial Cultivator, found his spirit fluctuating uncontrollably. The lower-realm True Martial Cultivators fared far worseâthey stood petrified, staring skyward in confusion, as helpless as if the heavens themselves were falling on them!
Fortunately, they werenât alone; even the surrounding Cultivators were utterly captivated by the bladeâs terrifying presence, forgetting entirely to counterattack the True Martial Cultivators.
Within Banqiao City, only Chijianâs eyes carried a different shade of understanding.
Unlike everyone else, the Chaotic Slash in his eyes clearly radiated colors as vibrant as a rainbow!
And it shook his soul all the more!
âThe Five Elementsâhow can they fuse so flawlessly?â
âThis is entirely different from my Eight Aspects Sword with its sharp divisions!â
âWind and Thunder have been infused as well, alongside Soul and Qi and Blood⊠Could this be the Path of Yin and Yang?â
âWhat are these textures intertwined within? There seems to be something incompleteâŠâ
âStarlight diffusingâŠâ
âHow can something achieve such perfection and precision?â
A rare and inexplicable emotion flashed across Chijianâs heart!
Yet for some reason, alongside his awe and astonishment, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
In the blink of an eye, he had no time to delve deeper into it.
As the blade descended, Lu Yu beside Chijian first flashed a moment of confusion in his eyes. But then he realized something, his face instantly breaking into rare joy and relief as he spoke excitedly:
âItâs the Deputy Sect Master!â
âWho?â
Chijian, fully immersed in the pinnacle mysteries of the slash, finally snapped out of his reverie upon hearing Lu Yuâs words. He quickly turned his head and asked.
âItâs the Deputy Sect Master! Vice Sect Master Wang! I never thought he would come personally!â
Lu Yu said elatedly.
âThe Deputy Sect Master⊠Wang⊠Could it beâŠâ
Chijianâs face froze as a thought flickered through his mindâa memory of an encounter over a century ago in Northsea Continent with a disciple from Wanxiang SectâŠ
âItâs him?!â
He turned his head abruptly toward the blade.
The dazzling Chaos Blade Light silently descended not far ahead of him.
Time seemed to momentarily slow down.
He stared blankly at the blade passing before him, able to make out the subtle flows of change along its surface.
Feeling the intense pressure it created by compressing the surrounding air.
Some Cultivators and True Martial Cultivators standing nearby were involuntarily drawn closer to the blade.
Whoosh!
In that instant.
Timeâs flow returned to normal.
Though the descriptions of these changes seem intricate, they all occurred in the blink of an eye.
The tattoo-faced burly man locked in the path of the blade finally awoke from his paralyzing terror!
He stared at the slashing blade coming toward him, his eyes filled with an unprecedented fear!
His Qi and Blood surged like a tsunami, erupting violently from his eyes, ears, nose, and every pore across his body!
In an instant, he transformed into a blood-colored skeleton that enveloped him entirely.
Yet, that was as far as it went.
The tattoo-faced burly man had just attempted to move, but then he was horrified to find that his body seemed utterly detached from his control, frozen stiff in place!
At this moment, his heart seemed seized entirely by fear!
âNo⊠No! IâŠâ
Swish!
In his terror-stricken and astonished gaze, the blade light crashed downâbut came to a silent halt just in front of his forehead!
The blade radiated a piercing aura, with just a mere wisp slicing through the blood skeleton that covered him, exposing the flesh underneathâŠ
A brief pause, then the blade light shifted slightly to the side.
The next moment.
BOOM!!!
A deafening explosion nearly rendered the tattoo-faced burly man deaf!
He stiffly turned his head to look.
Outside Banqiao City.
A wide, mile-long, unfathomably deep chasm stretched across the landscape, rising slowly amidst plumes of dust.
It lay just ahead of the entire True Martial Army.
Like a colossal, narrow mouth, as if ready to devour any invading enemies.
At this moment.
Whether it was the Cultivators and Class IV True Martial Cultivators inside Banqiao City or the vast True Martial Army outside⊠all fell into a deathly silence!
The tattoo-faced burly manâs body felt ice-cold, his eyes filled with lingering fear as he stared at the bottomless abyss.
âWho could it be? Does such a figure truly exist among the Cultivators of Huangji Continent? But why didnât they kill me?â
âClearly, that slashâŠâ
The slash had stopped inches above his headâhe did not doubt, had it truly landed upon him, no matter how indestructible his flesh was, he would have been separated into pieces, killed in a single strike!
Yet, the blade that had clearly targeted him somehow shifted at the last moment, sparing him inexplicably.
At this moment, it wasnât just him.
High in the skies, within the giant Dragon Transformation Pool, an awareness immediately perceived the anomaly here. However, âitâ sensed far more clearly than anyone else, filled with shock and wariness:
