Chapter 108 The Great Defying Sword Scripture

Zhong Changhen's master.

Back then, the Extreme Radiance Sword Immortal Li Tongming of the Exquisite That was a true Earthly Immortal Realm expert, but he died at the hands of Zhong Changhen.

He killed Li Tongming with his cultivation at the Great Evolution Realm. This was an extremely strange thing in itself.

What was even more bizarre was that Zhong Changhen, who had done such an act of bullying his master and annihilating his ancestors, had not been expelled from the Linglong Pavilion. Instead, he became an elder of the Linglong Pavilion and stayed in the Linglong Pavilion.

This matter was truly too unimaginable.

So much so that the disciples in the Linglong Pavilion kept it a secret and didn't dare to talk about this matter recklessly.

Apart from deepening Xu Han's doubts, Zhong Changhen had given such a reason. It seemed that there was no change to the current situation.

"Thirty years ago, I saw the ocean currents." Zhong Changhen naturally knew this as well, so after he finished speaking, he suddenly let out a long breath and continued. "In the Southern Desolate Sword Mausoleum."

"Master and Sword Mausoleum's Sect Master Wang Yangming had a battle, but the Thousand Words Sword Scripture was still unable to defeat the Great Evolution Sword Technique. Master lost the formation."

"Of course, winning and losing in the sword dao competition is a common occurrence, but Master still remembers it. That was the seventh time he was defeated by Wang Yangming's sword. At that time, he was 167 years old, and Wang Yangming was 48 years old. He was an Earth Immortal, and Wang Yangming was only at the Great Evolution Realm."

"Master is a very open-minded person." Zhong Changhen's voice was leisurely, neither anxious nor slow, his gaze incomparably clear, as if he had fallen into memories.

Seeing him like this, Xu Han temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart and quietly waited for Zhong Changhen to finish telling the story.

"But sometimes, the more open-minded a person is, the more paranoid they are when it comes to stubbornness."

"The Thousand Words Sword Scripture originated from the Universal Scripture, but after experiencing the improvement of more than a dozen great swordsmen, the Thousand Words Sword Scripture has become its own. Even in Master's generation, the Thousand Words Sword Scripture has become perfect, and Master is often proud of it. However, he has been defeated again and again by Wang Yangming, who is two years younger than him."

"Master is neither puzzled nor indignant. He wants to figure out exactly where the Thousand Words Sword Scripture, which took all the effort of the Linglong Pavilion's ancestors, is inferior to the Great Evolution Sword Technique." At this point, Zhong Changhen suddenly fell silent.

Xu Han's heart skipped a beat as he realized that this might have something to do with Zhong Changhen killing Li Tongming himself in the end.

"Then what happened afterwards?" He couldn't help but ask.

The expression on Zhong Changhen's face dimmed a little at that time, "He stole the Great Evolution Sword Technique from the Sword Mausoleum."

"Huh?" Zhong Changhen's words stunned Xu Han. Thirty years ago, Li Tongming was a Sword Dao Grandmaster comparable to Yue Fuyao and Yan Qianqiu. No matter what, Xu Han did not expect him to do such a thing.

Naturally, Xu Han's thoughts could not be concealed from Zhong Changhen's eyes.

However, he did not care. Instead, he continued with a calm expression, "Then, Master locked himself in his room and spent the night studying the Great Evolution Sword Technique, trying to find out where it was better than the Thousand Words Sword Scripture."

"He succeeded?" Xu Han frowned and asked.

"He's crazy." Zhong Changhen's answer was beyond Xu Han's expectations.

"Are you crazy?" Xu Han became even more puzzled. How determined was an Earthly Immortal level expert's mind? Even if Tai Shan collapsed in front of him, his expression did not change. How could he go crazy so easily?

"To be exact, he has entered the Devil Dao." Zhong Changhen nodded. "After studying the Great Evolution Sword Technique for seven days, Master suddenly found me. He said that he had thought of a way to combine the strengths of the Great Evolution Sword Technique and the Thousand Words Sword Scripture and cultivate a sword technique that was a thousand times stronger than both. Then, he closed his door again. This time, he stayed closed for half a year."

"Later, the Sword Mausoleum sent Canghai Liuliu to search for the lost sword art. At that time, Master also came out of seclusion again. He was like a different person. The devil energy around him was washing away, and killing intent filled his sword. He killed three senior brothers first, then seven senior uncles. He said, 'You're lacking a bit of strength, I'm lacking an intent. '"The path of the sword is hopeless, hopeless." Then, he began his slaughter on Chongju Peak, and finally… "

Zhong Changhen clearly remembered what had happened on that day very clearly. His tone of voice even changed with the development of the matter. As for the story that he didn't tell, Xu Han had already understood it. In the end, it was naturally him who personally killed his master.

To be fair, this is not a very good story.

There are too many oddities in this.

However, Xu Han did not intend to probe further. After a few breaths of silence, he looked at Zhong Changhen again and asked, "But what does this have to do with this junior?"

Zhong Changhen also regained his senses at that time. He looked at Xu Han.

"Master stole the Great Evolution Sword Technique and ended up eating the evil consequence. However, Yu Jianling suffered the loss of the sword technique being stolen. There is a saying that his father's debt is repaid, and I am his disciple. Naturally, I will repay this debt."

"Moreover, it was thanks to Canghai's outflow that the riots in Chongju Peak were quelled. I don't know what kind of relationship you have with Canghai Liuliu, but since he is willing to teach you the Great Evolution Sword Technique, I will treat you as his disciple."

"Logically speaking, Master stole the Great Evolution Sword Technique. I should offer the Thousand Words Sword Scripture as an apology. However, my Master has already seen the bitter fruit of the combination of the two. I don't want to harm you. If you want to go to the Sword Mausoleum one day, you can bring it with you to Wang Yangming for decision. Bamboo Light has already told me about your situation. He just started cultivating the Sword Dao. Although our two Sword Daos are different, there are different paths that lead to the same goal. If you are willing, you can stay in this Exquisite Pavilion. If you have any doubts about the Sword Dao in the future, I will naturally help you resolve them. "

Zhong Changhen said this, and with his cultivation, if he really had a plan, he shouldn't have used such a gentle method. Because of this, Xu Han had some confidence in what he said in his heart.

"But since Senior Canghai Liu is kind to Linglong Pavilion as you said, why did Elder Congyun of Peak Zhonglong bring people to chase after him a few years ago?" However, Xu Han's thoughts were extremely meticulous. He quickly thought of the matter of filling the continent and couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Zhong Changhen smiled bitterly.

"There are always some people in this world who are greedy for evil results. After Canghai Liuliu helped me kill Master back then, the sword scripture that Master wrote by fusing the two sword scriptures also disappeared. Some people in the pavilion thought that although Master had entered the Devil Dao at that time, the combat strength he displayed was far beyond ordinary. Presumably, there must be something extraordinary about that sword art, and Master had fallen to such a heaven and earth only because he had cultivated carelessly. Therefore, he pointed the spearhead of the disappearance of the sword art at Vastsea Current who had taken away the Great Evolution Sword Art. Over the years, there were many people in the pavilion who wanted to retrieve the sword art, and Long Congyun was only one of them.

"Then what is the name of this Sword Scripture?" Hearing this, the origin of the matter finally became clear in Xu Han's heart.

"Great Defying Sword Scripture!"

…

At the peak of Chongju Peak .

Within the Liushuo Mansion within the Three Dao Caves.

An old man in black sat down cross-legged.

He was Sikong Bai , the only person on Zhong Ju Peak who was still alive.

Back then, Li Tongming's enchantment with the devil had forced all of Zhongju Peak's peers into a state of death. Most of them either died in that riot or died from serious injuries in the years that followed.

Only he survived.

There was no other reason. At that time, his cultivation was the weakest, and he was the youngest. He was simply not qualified to participate in that battle.

As the senior brothers headed west, the Nuo Great Exquisite Pavilion no longer had an immortal-like figure to support it.

Sikong Bai knew that in the seemingly calm Jianghu of Great Zhou, countless people coveted the name of the Great Zhou's number one sect.

He needed to prop up the Exquisite Pavilion's facade to fight against those enemies, both overt and covert.

He needs power.

After returning to the Exquisite Pavilion, he closed the Death Pass and swore that he would not leave without breaking through the Great Evolution Realm.

However, his talent wasn't outstanding, and although the Earth Immortal Realm and the Great Evolution Realm were only separated by one realm, it was as if they were separated by a heavenly chasm. Such a gap was far from something that could be broken by a so-called determination. Sikong Bai's state of mind, which had failed several times, was on the verge of collapse.

He thought about the predicament of the Linglong Pavilion and the instructions of his senior brothers before they died.

The 70-year-old man's heart skipped a beat and he took out something from his bosom.

It was an ancient book with yellowed pages.

On the title page, there were four large words written in blood.
