Killing to Raise a Sword, Poisonous Dragon Devours Its Master

Li Xijun was slightly taken aback when he saw the name of the sword technique.

No wonder Li Boyan said that he had just learned the "Twenty-Four White Lotus Crossing the Netherworld Diagram" and then gave him this sword technique.

Judging from the name, it seems that this sword technique is also related to the Wusheng Dao Temple? Or is it a similar lineage?

Since killing Su Qiuzhen, Li Xijun had also inquired about the Wusheng Taoist Temple.

It is said that the cultivators of this lineage who cultivate the spirit only inherited a portion of the original legacy of the White Lotus Sect of No Life.

A thousand years ago, when the Wusheng White Lotus Sect, which worshipped the Silent Mother, was at its peak, it almost overthrew the entire imperial court. Its influence was so great that it made the cultivators of the other three sects tremble with fear.

It is said that the visualization method of the Wusheng White Lotus Sect is by no means just the advanced "Wusheng Salvation Mother Emptiness Contemplation", but a supreme visualization method.

Furthermore, the various supporting spells and supernatural powers within the sect, as well as the martial arts inheritance of the Blood-Changing Martial Saint, are as numerous as the stars, extremely dazzling.

This [Seven Killing Techniques of the Lifeless Killing Sword] is most likely a secret manual passed down in the White Lotus Sect of Lifeless Life.

"As expected of a former Grand Chancellor of the Great Sheng Dynasty, his every move is a masterpiece!"

Li Xijun grew increasingly eager as he intently read the text written on the brass pages.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Seven blood-red "kill" characters surged into his consciousness like a sea of ​​blood and a mountain of corpses.

"From this day forward, the world will be turned upside down; why hesitate to kill? There is nothing in this world that cannot be killed!"

"Slay heaven and earth, slay humans and slay dragons!"

"With this killing sword in hand, I will face death without regret! Once the sword is drawn, there is no turning back!"

"First kill myself! Then kill others! Slaughter nourishes the sword, helping me ascend to heaven!"

Every single word in those words turned blood-red in Li Xijun's mind, as if they had transformed into deadly dragons, carrying a terrifying killing intent that surged into his consciousness.

In an instant, Li Xijun felt the hairs on his body stand on end, his pupils dilate, and his blood surge like a rushing river.

It was as if he were truly facing an inevitable death!

At this moment, Li Xijun was very clear that if it were someone with a higher level of spiritual cultivation, they wouldn't be able to handle it.

At this moment, I'm afraid I'll truly be invaded and corrupted by this deathly, frenzied killing intent.

In the end, he became a madman who could only get caught up in killing and practicing swordsmanship.

A puppet that has been reduced to a slave of the Sword of No Life and No Death.

"Fortunately, I have already entered the 'Seated Oblivion State' to nurture my 'heart'."

Faced with this deadly intent carrying the blood-sea poison dragon, Li Xijun's mind instantly entered a state of "forgetting oneself and the world".

The murderous intent and madness, like poisonous dragons, were like falling into thin air, without causing any damage or impact.

at the same time,

A pure heart rises, shining like the sun high in the sky, illuminating the whole world.

The sea of ​​blood and mountains of corpses, the howling of ghosts and wolves, and the poisonous dragons of death that had just invaded his consciousness all vanished like spring snow melting away.

Only one move, the Seven Kill Sword Technique, which contained pure killing intent, slowly emerged in Li Xijun's mind.

He snapped out of his reverie and, looking again at the brass pages before him, couldn't help but smile.

"Heh... I guess I've finally encountered something that fits this terrifying, insane, and twisted world."

Previously, Li Xijun's cultivation of martial arts and spiritual refinement were orthodox paths that sought enlightenment within the physical body and sublimated the mind and spirit.

This has led him to overlook the madness of the world.

Now, having had a preliminary encounter with this sword technique passed down by the White Lotus Sect,

He then realized that the martial artists and cultivators of the Eastern Continent seemed to have neglected it in terms of martial arts techniques.

It's even quite possible that, in order to enhance the power of swordsmanship, they deliberately steered it towards this decadent and insane demonic direction.

At least, the terrifying Seven Killings Sword Technique before us is just that.

"Using killing to nourish the sword..."

Li Xijun looked at the characters engraved on the pages of the book.

The various secrets and techniques of this sword technique recorded in the book cannot help but inspire awe:

"The more people you kill, the faster you can hone your swordsmanship, and the more refined your swordsmanship will become."

"At the same time, the sword intent representing pure slaughter in my heart will grow even stronger..."

"This killing and death will continuously affect the cultivator's state of mind and spirit."

"Until the final move, the Seven Kill Sword, is perfected,"

"At that time, it will transform into a deadly poisonous dragon and devour those who cultivate it."

"Those with strong minds who can overcome this challenge will master this sword and become invincible."

"Those with weaker minds will become slaves to the sword, driven to madness to endlessly kill and slaughter..."

"It seems that the cultivators and martial artists of the Eastern Continent have become quite adept at playing tricks after realizing the true nature of the world."

If we're talking about the [Ten Thousand Blades Returning to Flow] technique that Su Nianying taught us in the main world before,

It is a very orthodox path to enlightenment, from complexity to simplicity, forging the foundation of the way of the sword.

Therefore, this move, the Seven Killings Sword of No Life and Death, is a unique and ingenious path through the perilous Huashan Mountain.

"This kind of demonic sword technique requires too much spiritual cultivation and mental strength. Ordinary martial artists would almost certainly die if they tried to practice it."

"Fortunately, I cultivate both spiritual refinement and martial arts, and my mind in the meditation state never regresses, so I can ignore the effects of cultivating this killing sword."

"As for the backlash from the poisonous dragon after the sword technique is perfected, it can be suppressed and subdued with the cultivation of the Refining Spirit. It's just unknown whether it requires the Great Perfection of Sitting in Oblivion or the Fetal Breathing Realm to be able to succeed reliably."

"However, overall:"

"Lord Boyan, the sword technique you chose back then was almost tailor-made for me."

Li Xijun nodded slightly, quite satisfied with the result.

Cultivating both swords and sabers, one orthodox and one unorthodox, are both high-grade martial arts that can be used for a long time.

"This is the true essence of the Cabinet Minister, the Manifestation of the True Lord..."

"Even a tiny bit of what's left out is a piece of good stuff that ordinary martial artists and cultivators might never be able to obtain in their entire lives, something that suits them perfectly."

"Fortunately, I have broken through to the Sitting Meditation Realm, so at least I can often enter the other party's residence and receive guidance from now on."

Thinking of this,

Li Xijun eagerly went to his school's private martial arts room to begin learning this basic sword technique.

"hiss!"

The standard longsword pierced through the air with an extremely faint whooshing sound, instantly transforming into a cold glint in mid-air.

Unlike the 31,104 required by the 【Ten Thousand Blades Return to the Flow】, each slash is like a silver snake dancing wildly, or a thousand layers of snow lotus blooming.

Even if the entire Seven Killings Sword of No Life is mastered, it is only a momentary death trajectory of seven killings. What it seeks is to kill with a single sword, silently and without a trace, like a poisonous dragon from the abyss. Once it opens its vertical pupils, it carries the dragon's kiss of death.

Time passed little by little.

The clock in front of the private martial arts studio was also ticking away.

Several more hours passed before...

With sweat dripping from his forehead, Li Xijun was speechless as he took the towel from the robotic arm and looked at the empty notification message in his field of vision.

"So, if you don't kill anyone, you won't even get the basics down...?"

Thinking of this, Li Xijun took out her phone and sent a message to Su Nianying:

"Are you there? Send me a sniper rifle?"
