Chapter 1016: Immortal Slaying (2)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Here, they saw the Mountain and River Diagram of Seeping River Academy. Emperor Yu was not afraid of being seen by the Sword Master and the Cliffmaster because there was indeed a rubbing of this diagram in Seeping River Academy. Moreover, if the two of them could comprehend it, they would have long comprehended sword techniques from their Mountain and River Diagram.

Shen Ping looked at it seriously for a while and confirmed that this landscape painting was the general outline of the Taiyi Sword Dao. This made him reveal a look of joy.

“Marquis Zhenbei, is that the general outline?”

“Yes.”

The Sword Master and the Cliffmaster revealed looks of joy. They were all sword practitioners, so they naturally knew how important the general outline was. It was equivalent to the skeleton of a sword technique. Without the general outline, it was very difficult to succeed even if one forcefully cultivated a sword technique. Instead, it was easy for one to go berserk.

“Sword Master, Cliffmaster Chou, and Emperor Yu, please wait patiently. Although the second half of the sword technique on the Mountain and River Diagram is missing, the first two volumes are already vast and profound. I will need a long time to comprehend them!” Shen Ping said.

He was telling the truth. The Taiyi Sword Dao was a top-notch Sword Dao secret technique, and it was also a Sword Dao secret technique created by the master of the Realm Sea Peak. Its power could be imagined. If he cultivated it successfully, he would have another powerful killing method. In the future, he would not only communicate with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth when facing enemies.

Under normal circumstances, if he used the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to attack, the power would at most be the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth itself. However, if it erupted through a secret technique, it would really erupt with the power of the Great Dao. The power of the attack would easily increase by 20 to 30%!

Even he had to cultivate such a secret technique for a long time. After all, this sword technique could not be obtained through the virtual frame.

The Sword Master, the Cliffmaster and Emperor Yu, who had not even stepped into the Sword Dao, found it very difficult to succeed even if they cultivated. It was already not easy for them to cultivate the sword technique of the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers!

“Sure!” The young Sword Master smiled and said, “But how long will it take?”

Shen Ping said in a low voice, “At least fifty years, at most a hundred years. This sword technique far exceeds the sword technique of the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers itself. Moreover, you have seen the sword technique I displayed. You should know that even the sword technique of the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers is quite difficult. In addition, during this period, as long as I comprehend the sword technique, I will show it to the three of you every ten years. How about that?”

The Sword Master smiled and said, “Sure.”

The Cliffmaster nodded as well. Emperor Yu had no objections. They all knew that the more advanced a sword technique was, the more difficult it was to cultivate it.

“It’s not too late to watch the second half of the Heavenly Sound Temple after I’ve comprehended the sword technique. Perhaps the abbot of the Heavenly Sound Temple will change his mind.”

Just like that, the four of them agreed to gather every ten years.

They left Monarch Mountain. When they returned, they were not together. Now that they knew that they could cultivate the supreme sword technique, the Sword Master and the Cliffmaster were very excited. Moreover, they could not wait to go back and cultivate the Sword Dao of the Mountain and River Painting.

He sped through the astral winds. He first came to Seeping River Academy and met Fairy Lijiang. She was the same as before and had not changed much. However, after seeing Shen Ping, there was obvious joy in her eyes and she spoke more than before. He asked about the progress of her Water Splitting Sword Technique.

Fairy Lijiang personally practiced it. Although she had not completely mastered the Water Splitting Sword Technique, she already had 80% of the true intent. The Water Splitting Sword Technique was the complete sword technique of the Great Dao of Water.

Having grasped 80% of the true meaning meant that Fairy Lijiang had comprehended at least 30% of the Great Dao of the Water.

How long has it been? If it was in the Immortal Dao territory, those Immortal Venerables would have to spend hundreds of thousands of years to settle down. This was the wonder of the palace world.

“Good. When you completely master the Water Splitting Sword Technique, I’ll teach you the other sword technique of the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers!” Shen Ping said in relief.

Fairy Lijiang nodded repeatedly. “If I can master it, I’ll go to the House of Zhenbei. I can’t trouble you to come to the academy all the time.”

He looked at the shyness in her eyes. Shen Ping smiled. “Alright.”

He had stayed in the academy for about half a day before he returned to the House of Zhenbei. However, he stopped halfway. The wind in the astral wind layer was like a knife. If one was below the level of an Earth Immortal, their body would not be able to withstand this astral wind.

“You don’t have to hide anymore. Come out!”

Three Immortal Realm experts slowly appeared. “You’re just an Earth Immortal, but your senses are sharp.”

Shen Ping said lightly, “Why are you stopping me?”

One of the Immortals said, “Marquis of Zhenbei, you’re indeed very talented. You actually comprehended a sword technique from the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers. We’re waiting here because we want to know what this sword technique is, so Marquis of Zhenbei, show us.”

Shen Ping nodded and said, “I don’t even know the three of you. Why should I demonstrate such a sword technique?”

“Kid. Don’t be ungrateful. On account that you’re still a junior, we won’t make things difficult for you. Otherwise… Hmph, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!” the other two Immortals said coldly.

Shen Ping ignored their threat and asked, “Where did you learn that I can comprehend the sword technique of the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers? The Sword Whisper Tower, the Sea Moon Cliff, and the Emperor Mountain are all tightly sealed. It’s only possible in the Seeping River Academy. In that case, are you from the Seeping River Academy?

“No, although there are hidden Immortals in Seeping River Academy, I basically know all of them. The three of you are very unfamiliar. Could it be that you are the Immortal Realm behind Jin Tang?”

The leader of the immortals said coldly, “Kid, it’s best not to know what you shouldn’t know. Be good and write down that sword technique!”

Shen Ping shrugged. “Looks like I guessed correctly. Just the three of you are not qualified. Let the Immortal Realm experts behind you come over!”

His finger made a grabbing motion in front of him. Sword light rained down It drowned the surrounding astral winds. Every inch of sword light contained the sword intent of a top Great Dao.

“W-What kind of Sword Dao is this!” The three Immortal Realm experts were shocked and hurriedly used all their strength to resist. However, facing the seemingly invincible sword light, they gradually could not hold on anymore. The protective sword essence around their bodies shattered inch by inch. “You, you’re not an Earth Immortal, you’re an Immortal, an Immortal!”

Shen Ping sneered and said, “So what if I’m an Earth Immortal? I can still kill immortals. As for what Sword Dao this is, it’s a true Sword Dao. If you can see it, you won’t have any regrets in your lives!”

Sword light pierced through their bodies. The raging power of the Sword Dao quickly destroyed the bodies of the three Immortals. Just like that, three Immortals fell. If it were other Earth Immortals, the three of them could easily defeat them. However, they had encountered Shen Ping. The true Sword Dao was a top-notch Heaven and Earth Great Dao and had already surpassed this world. It was not something they could resist at all.

He watched as the three Sword Immortals’ bodies shattered and gradually dissipated. Shen Ping’s expression was calm. Killing people was like eating and drinking to him. It could not arouse any emotions at all. “The strength of these three fellows is mediocre. They can’t even compare to Vice Palace Master Yan. They should be new immortals, but their backgrounds are probably not low.”

He thought for a moment and rushed back to the House of Zhenbei. In the entire world, only the Sword Dao could pique his interest. He was not interested in other forces at all. At most, he was a little curious.

After returning to the House of Zhenbei, his life was peaceful and dull again. Every day, he either cultivated the Taiyi Sword Dao or sparred with Huo Ru. Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, twenty years had passed.

During this period of time, Shen Ping showed the sword technique he had comprehended to the Sword Master, the Cliffmaster, and Emperor Yu. However, they could not learn it at all and could only continue to cultivate the sword technique on the Diagram of Mountains and Rivers. Fairy Lijiang’s progress was not slow and she had already learned and mastered the Water Splitting Sword Technique.

It could be said that in the Sword Dao, Fairy Lijiang had already surpassed many Immortal cultivators.
