This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

After using Sword Qi Filaments to lock down this space, Lu Qingshan had already lifted the Peach Blossom Sword, taking a stance to chop down towards Bai Guandao.

Almost all of the watching cultivators turned their gaze toward Lu Qingshan's sword in that instant, focusing intently on it.

They were well aware that after so much careful consideration, Lu Qingshan's sword strike was definitely not simple.

Indeed, the Spiritual Power within Lu Qingshan's body poured out like a flood, surging into the Peach Blossom Sword in his hands.

In the thick of it, a terrifying Slaughter Sword Intent that directly threatened the soul merged into the sword.

This sword seemed capable of flipping rivers and overturning seas.

Facing this horrific slash from Lu Qingshan, Bai Guandao did not dodge or avoid it.

Inside his body, the peculiar Jade Talisman shaped like a yin-yang fish flickered with a dim, rosy light once again.

No matter how violent the attack, under this Divine Skill, it would eventually be returned back to its originator, Lu Qingshan, so he was entirely fearless.

Bai Guandao drew circles with both hands, and that profound Taiji Yin Yang Diagram emerged once more, with the Space True Intention blending into it.

The principle behind this Divine Skill was to use the mysteries of space to temporarily absorb all attacks into the void, and then release them in the space surrounding Lu Qingshan.

The dull Peach Blossom Sword flickered with an extremely dazzling Divine Light, stabbing towards Bai Guandao's chest, erupting in bursts of thunderous noise, with dense Sword Qi ringing sharply in the air.

Even before Lu Qingshan's sword reached him, Bai Guandao felt the terrible pressure it contained, a chilling cold seeping out as if numerous icy needles were pricking into his body.

He had no doubts about the power of Lu Qingshan's sword.

And towards this sword cultivator who was much younger than himself, he also felt a sincere admiration.

But no matter what, he had to win!

Secret Sword: Subduing Heaven!

Skill effect: Slash with thrice the power of five swords.

Lu Qingshan softly exclaimed in his heart.

His entire strength had already burst to its limit, and after unleashing the Secret Sword Suppressing Heaven, his Qi-Blood and Spiritual Power almost seemed to merge into one within him.

This was the strongest burst of power in his External Sword techniques.

The wild Spiritual Power rampaged out through Lu Qingshan's meridians, flowing unceasingly into the Peach Blossom Sword in his hands.

In that moment, Sword Light condensed into clusters on the Peach Blossom Sword, terrifying power wildly gathering to form a fearsome Sword of Heavenly Punishment.

In an immeasurable snap of the fingers, Sword Light and Sword Qi washed out like a surging tide.

All of heaven and earth suddenly went silent

"Crack!"

The next moment, Lu Qingshan's Heaven Suppressing Sword heavily struck upon the Taiji Yin Yang Diagram unfolded by Bai Guandao.

An explosion of terrifying energy ensued.

"Secret Sword!" a spectator exclaimed absentmindedly.

A few Sect Leaders from the Taoist Sect exchanged looks, and the Taibai Sword Master nodded, "Indeed, it's Secret Sword Technique."

Dazzling Sword Light and Sword Qi burst within the profound black hole of the Yin Yang Diagram, causing deafening roars.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Yin Yang Diagram itself emitted a Divine Light.

Blood vessels appeared in Bai Guandao's eyes, and his Spiritual Power boiled unceasingly, with veins bulging on his forehead as he strenuously supported the Taiji Yin Yang Diagram to swallow and absorb the energy contained in Lu Qingshan's sword.

The sword and the Yin Yang Diagram were locked in a strangely eerie stalemate for a moment.

Lu Qingshan's face turned solemn, his joints cracking loudly, as his Spiritual Power explosively burst forth, and he swung his sword a second time.

The second strike of Subduing Heaven!

Terrifying power flowed wave after wave from Lu Qingshan's body into the Peach Blossom Sword in his hands.

"Ha!"

The immense strain of executing the second strike of Subduing Heaven caused Lu Qingshan's muscles to bulge, his veins to protrude, and his blood vessels to expand.

All his strength poured into the Peach Blossom Sword to carry out the second strike of Subduing Heaven.

Sizzling!

Cracks began to appear on Bai Guandao's Taiji Yin Yang Diagram.

"Crack, crack, crack!!"

A soul-shaking explosion rang out.

Lu Qingshan once again swung his sword down at the center of the Taiji Yin Yang Diagram.

Heaven Suppressing Sword, the third strike!

The Taiji Yin Yang Diagram suddenly trembled, and at its center, a golden crack appeared!

As soon as the crack appeared, the entire Divine Skill seemed to reach its limit. In just an instant, the golden crack continued to multiply until the Divine Skill could no longer withstand the might of the Secret Sword and shattered into fluttering specks of Spiritual Light at an unimaginable speed.

Yet Lu Qingshan's sword strike was far from over. After slicing through the Taiji Yin Yang Diagram, it headed straight for Bai Guandao's chest.

ZZZ!

The Protective Aura of the arena's Array enveloped Bai Guandao without any hesitation.

A sword strike capable of Heaven Suppressing.

This was the reason why later generations named this Secret Sword "Heaven Suppressing."

This was the ultimate explosion of power and the ultimate force of destruction.

Bai Guandao's Divine Skills might be bizarre and strong, but Lu Qingshan understood that this Divine Skill was definitely not invincible, there must be a limit to what it can endure.

With this in mind, victory and defeat became extremely simple.

To break it with sheer strength!

Either he would use the explosive power of the Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword to break through the Divine Skill's limit to claim victory,

Or Bai Guandao would reflect the Secret Sword's immense destructive power back to him, making him suffer the consequences of his own action.

But to Lu Qingshan, this was not a gamble.

Because he knew deeply that with his current level of Cultivation, under the enhancement of the Slaughter Sword Intent in the Unity Realm, the fivefold might of the Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword would be terrifying beyond imagination.

He was ninety-nine percent confident that, with the terrifying explosive power of the Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword, he would surely be able to suppress Bai Guandao.

The reality was indeed so. Bai Guandao, overly confident in his Divine Skills, chose to withstand Lu Qingshan's three swords and reaped the current consequences.

"Did Lu Qingshan win?!" The observing Cultivators were still immersed in the shock of Lu Qingshan's three phenomenal strikes, unable to snap back to reality.

Bai Guandao was perceived as unfathomable, especially with his terrifying Divine Skill of "an eye for an eye" which seemed nearly unsolvable to most Cultivators.

For Lu Qingshan, at his age, to have fought up to this point was already an incomparable honor. And in their eyes, his battle with Bai Guandao was destined to be an enduring, fierce fight.

Who could have imagined that after a simple probing, Lu Qingshan would break through this unsolvable Divine Skill with three sword strikes and achieve victory.

Moreover, if they hadn't seen it wrong, the move that Lu Qingshan had just used was completely different from the Secret Sword Technique he had used to defeat Yu Cibei!

As the strongest Divine Skill among External Swords, to have mastered one Secret Sword would place one at the forefront of their peers.

And Lu Qingshan had actually mastered two extremely terrifying Secret Swords.

One as fast as lightning, the other with boundless explosive force!

The way people looked at Lu Qingshan began to change.

What kind of prodigy was this?

"He's really strong!" Spirit Moon's eyes gleamed with starlight as she unconsciously grabbed the arm of the round-faced female Cultivator beside her, her admiration reaching its peak as she murmured, "And he's only eighteen, even younger than me by a decade..."

Within the ranks of the Cultivators from the top Sects, Lu Qingshan's performance caused quite a stir. Zhuan Zhu, a respected figure, pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "This Secret Sword, it's..."

An elder standing beside Zhuan Zhu, whose eyes were shining with endless light, exclaimed affirmatively, "It's Heaven Suppressing, the Secret Sword Technique created by the Sword Immortal in his early years while at our Taiyi Sword Sect..."

...

On the stage, Bai Guandao's face was pale, and he paused for a moment as he faced the current situation.

After a while, Bai Guandao finally shook his head and calmly accepted his defeat, saying to Lu Qingshan, "I concede to your superior skills, Fellow Daoist Lu."

Lu Qingshan's complexion wasn't looking very good either.

Using the Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword had also inflicted considerable damage on him.

Yet he still mustered up the energy to nod slightly to Bai Guandao in acknowledgment.

"This battle, Lu Qingshan wins!"

The Sky Floating Sage announced loudly at that moment, seizing the right timing.
