Not to mention Dongfang Bai, even Zhao Min was moved upon hearing this.
The news of Zhang Xiaoshan's seclusion was no secret, but even though everyone knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was in seclusion, no one dared to make any moves against the Zhang family.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaoshan's seclusion was to create a sword technique, and this was only the second stop.
So, what about the first stop?
"Flying, Flower, Snow, Moon, four independent yet interconnected sword techniques."
The Falling Flower Sword Technique is nearing completion. I've come here to create a sword technique based on the 'moon,' focusing on lightness and speed.
Chapter 506 The Evil-Repelling Sword Technique; Showing Affection on Blackwood Cliff
The moonlight is bright and clear, and the beautiful woman is charming and lovely!
The two completely disregarded the two 'girls' beside them and flaunted their affection.
Tu Xuehua was already used to the couple's public displays of affection.
But Zhao Min was different. As a proud and domineering princess, she had never seen such a scene before.
She wanted to reprimand them, but one was her master, and the other was someone she couldn't afford to offend, who might even unleash his beastly nature. Therefore, Zhao Min could only avoid seeing them and stay in her room.
However, his mind was always on the couple outside who were showing off their love.
This was the first time she had met the legendary head of the Zhang family.
It should be noted that whether it is Xingyin from Wudang Mountain or the experience of the previous year, the Zhang family of the Central Plains, which is widely known in the martial arts world, are absolutely supreme beings in the martial arts world.
With grandmasters as subordinates, the Blood Droplet as a weapon of destruction, and a terrifying money-making machine, the Zhang family exudes the aura of a martial arts overlord.
If the Zhang family hadn't been averse to the struggle for supremacy in the Nine Provinces, they would likely have been the first heretic the four great empires wanted to eliminate.
"A sword technique centered around the moon?"
"Your imagination is certainly boundless, but where did that vixen find inspiration for the Falling Flower Sword Technique?"
"So, you're one of those vixens too!"
'Hate!'
Amidst laughter, Zhang Xiaoshan summoned Tu Xuehua and explained the intricacies of the Falling Flower Sword Technique to her.
Although Zhang Xiaoshan had Tie Zhan pass on the True Qi of the Wedding Dress to Tu Xuehua, he had his own purpose, especially since Gu Jianhun later taught him the Tathagata Palm of the Sexual Sound.
In Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes, the mere Falling Flower Sword Technique was nothing special.
Upon receiving the essence of the Falling Flower Sword Technique, Tu Xuehua was also excited, never expecting that Zhang Xiaoshan would pass on the first sword technique he had created to her.
Moreover, the exquisite skill of this Falling Flower Sword Technique is in no way inferior to the Seven Whirlwind Slash, and may even surpass it.
As for Dongfang Bai, after listening to the Falling Flower Sword Technique, he couldn't help but think of the Dugu Nine Swords.
However, although they share a similar concept, they are completely different sword techniques.
The Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes comprehension, with swordsmanship as the primary skill.
The Falling Flower Sword Technique emphasizes true qi and focuses on control.
Tu Xuehua is undoubtedly one of the most suitable cultivators. With the true qi of the Wedding Dress Divine Skill, a woman's love of flowers, and excellent comprehension, she could master the basics in at most ten days. To achieve minor or major mastery, it would take at least a month or a year.
On the contrary, the three-day crash course achieved by Yaoyue and Lianxing was not even on the same level of understanding.
"A sword technique inspired by the moon—you want to create an Evil-Repelling Sword Technique?"
"I do know the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, but I don't have the internal cultivation method. I'll demonstrate the sword technique in a bit, and you should be able to master it easily!"
Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan wanted her to practice the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, even Dongfang Bai couldn't help but glance at him with wide eyes.
However, she did not refuse, knowing that the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique was a simplified version of the Sunflower Manual.
Since their cultivation methods are inherently similar, with ninety-nine percent being identical, it's naturally not a problem to use the Sunflower Mind Technique to operate the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
"It's just a pity about Lin Zhennan; in the end, he still ended up benefiting Yue Buqun!"
The fact that Lin Zhennan and Ren Woxing perished together was an unexpected outcome.
It can only be said that destiny lies with Mount Hua!
Otherwise, how could the fate of the Lin family have been altered, yet they still couldn't escape this destiny?
"Is Yue Buqun also plotting to create the Evil-Slaying Sword Manual?"
"Yes, but the sword manual has already been destroyed by Lin Zhennan."
Having acquired the Iron-Blooded Heart Sutra, he naturally didn't want Lin Pingzhi to follow in his footsteps, so the sword manual should have been completely destroyed by him.
Moreover, it was I who encouraged Lin Zhennan to practice the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique back then. Although it still couldn't change the fact that he died, at least the Lin family bloodline was preserved. If he knew this in the afterlife, he would have no regrets in death!
"Back then, many experts coveted the Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Technique. If he hadn't practiced it, his entire family would have been wiped out. You have done the Lin family a favor!"
What's the situation with the Lin family? How could Dongfang Bai not know?
If it weren't for Zhang Xiaoshan's reminder back then, the Lin family would definitely not have escaped the fate of being wiped out by Yu Canghai.
Even now, Lin Pingzhi's internal strength is among the best in Mount Hua, all thanks to the foundation laid by the Iron-Blooded Heart Method from back then.
After all, this is a rare and superior cultivation method. It is no problem to cultivate it to the level of a top master, and if one has excellent aptitude, it is also possible to break through to the ultimate realm.
"Alright, let's not talk about such discouraging things."
Without the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, Yue Buqun couldn't cause much of a stir in the martial arts world. Instead, Zhang Xiaoshan, curious about the pretty young nun from Hengshan, couldn't help but ask:
"By the way, your sister shouldn't have broken through to the pinnacle realm yet?"
"What kind of trick are you up to?"
Upon hearing Yilin's name, Dongfang Bai immediately became wary, his warning gaze conveying a clear message.
"Thinking of what?
She was simply asking if you wanted to teach her the Falling Flower Sword Technique, as the Hengshan sword techniques were so continuous and intricate that switching to this Falling Flower Sword Technique would be extremely suitable.
Moreover, the stronger she is, the more reassured you will be about her safety.
Besides, it's been three or four years since that little nun fought in the Battle of Hell's Gate. If she can't break through to the pinnacle realm, this sword technique should help her."
"Should the Falling Flower Sword Technique be taught to Yilin?"
Dongfang Bai looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in disbelief, then rushed over, moved.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaoshan considered her concerns and entrusted Yilin with a peerless sword technique as a means of self-defense.
Once Yilin breaks through to the pinnacle, coupled with the power of the Falling Flower Sword Technique, even a master at the pinnacle of great perfection might not be able to defeat her. In this martial world, she will already have the ability to protect herself.
In the eyes of ordinary people, he is an elusive and powerful figure, a master who can take someone's head with a wave of his hand.
After their wild and unrestrained behavior, Zhao Min and Tu Xuehua were both blushing with embarrassment. They never expected that Zhang Xiaoshan and Dongfang Bai would be so shameless, showing no regard for their feelings whatsoever.
Tu Xuehua, in particular, almost went mad with demonic possession.
···
The stars are shining brightly, and the moonlight is dazzling!
At this moment, Dongfang Bai's figure moved like a ghost, driving the 'third-rate sword moves' of the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
The originally flawed Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, combined with Dongfang Bai's unpredictable and strange speed, seemed to have undergone a sublimation and transformation, becoming an incomparably sharp, sinister, and deadly killing move.
Not only are their moves deadly, vicious, and unpredictable, but their movements are also incredibly agile, making their attacks even more ferocious when combined with their sword techniques.
Even Zhao Min and Tu Xuehua, who had been hiding inside the house, were staring intently at Dongfang Bai's eerie and ghostly swordsmanship, feeling both fear and dread.
"Evil Sword Technique!"
Looking at the strangeness of the swordsmanship, Tu Xuehua immediately thought of a legendary sword technique in the martial arts world.
Furthermore, the former headmaster, Ren Woxing, died under the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
Zhao Min also shone brightly. Previously, Dongfang Bubai had mainly focused on embroidery and had never practiced any swordsmanship, let alone such "exquisite" swordsmanship.
"Indeed, it is the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique."
The sword technique itself is not a secret, but the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique is derived from the Sunflower Manual, so without the activation of the Sunflower Heart Sutra, it can at best be considered a third-rate sword technique.
The true secret of the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual lies in this, which is why no one in the Lin family had mastered the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique before.
To master the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, the mental cultivation methods described in the sword manual are key.
Tu Xuehua nodded, "I see."
Zhao Min was also greatly disappointed. The Sunflower Manual was the ultimate martial art of the Sun Moon Sect, so the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique was undoubtedly a pipe dream.
Suddenly, under the moonlight, a sword light struck.
Beautiful and sharp, like the graceful figure of Chang'e descending to earth, everyone was in a daze.
hum!
The sword energy hissed, and the space trembled.
An invisible sword aura swept across a radius of several dozen feet. Its unparalleled sharpness and domineering power cleaved everything in its path—artificial hills, pavilions, and flowerbeds—in two before dissipating into a gust of wind. 370
Seeing this, Zhao Min's red lips parted in shock, her beautiful eyes wide with horror.
Is this the strength of Dongfang Bubai?
With just this one sword strike, hundreds of Northern Yuan cavalrymen would perish on the spot.
With his ghostly speed and ruthless, unpredictable swordsmanship, taking the head of a general from a million-strong army is an easy task.
"This sword strike is the effect you wanted, but... how will you incorporate it into your strategy?"
"First organize the information, then discuss the ideas, summarize, and finally elevate the discussion!"
Upon hearing Zhang Xiaoshan's plan, Dongfang Bai rolled his eyes.
However, she didn't feel any repulsion towards him, since the longer Zhang Xiaoshan wasted, the more time they would spend together.
Instead, Zhao Min stared at Zhang Xiaoshan's figure.
Now that they knew Zhang Xiaoshan had come to create a sword technique, there would inevitably be discussions, sketches, and demonstrations. Their minds raced, eager to find out more.
However, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't care about this, after all, a sword move is still just a sword move.
Moreover, he would eventually elevate his skills to a higher level, so Zhao Min only scratched the surface of his swordsmanship.
Zhang Xiaoshan found a stone tablet and copied the sword mark from the Yihua Palace again.
He did not avoid Zhao Min, even though Zhao Min knew it was a 'humiliation', she still did not want to give up any opportunity to improve her martial arts.
Moreover, compared to the many martial arts she had practiced, Zhang Xiaoshan's summaries and generalizations of these sword techniques were invaluable, like a sudden enlightenment. When she practiced a few strokes while serving him, her sword skills improved by leaps and bounds.
The only downside is that this couple's public displays of affection are completely unconcerned about them, and their constant displays of affection often catch them off guard.
However, in order to listen to the duel between the two grandmasters, she had no choice but to endure it.
Moreover, she couldn't bear it and there was nothing she could do. Instead, she watched as Zhang Xiaoshan's swordsmanship grew increasingly powerful, and even Zhao Min dared not miss a single moment.
This is a supreme sword technique, a rare opportunity in the martial arts world; how could Zhao Min possibly miss it?
Chapter 507 The Crescent Moon Sword Technique: Zhao Min's 'Choice'
Crescent Moon Sword Technique!
In one month, he combined the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique and the Crescent Moon Saber Technique.
Based on the various sword techniques, Zhang Xiaoshan finally came up with a solution and developed the Crescent Moon Sword Technique.
The waning moon is taken from the poem, "Where will I be when I wake up from my drunken stupor tonight? On the willow bank, in the morning breeze and under the waning moon."
In addition, it incorporates the essence of the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique and the mysteries of the Crescent Moon Saber, conveying both joy and sorrow, as well as compassion for humanity. This is a sword technique with extremely heavy killing power.
The original melancholy mood was combined with the extremely murderous swordsmanship.
Therefore, this sword technique, even before it had been refined, already possessed the power of a peerless swordsmanship, making it extremely terrifying. Even Zhao Min was thrilled.
'40,000 merits, strengthen!'
A narrow path leads to a pavilion, where the moon is full and the stars are few.
In this tranquil atmosphere, both Dongfang Bai and Tu Xuehua knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was about to undergo his final transformation.
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan, who had been frozen in place, moved. His body was filled with sword energy, surging and roaring. With a dazzling sword light, the moonlight was so bright that day and night seemed to be reversed. A bright light enveloped the entire forbidden area of Blackwood Cliff.
