Chapter 1391: Greater Mastery of the Saber Technique
After the Martial Dao Prime Body left with Carefree, Su Zimo and Beiming Xue were the only ones left in the hall.
Without Carefree, the hall fell silent.
Beiming Xue lowered her head slightly with a faint hint of sorrow in her eyes. After a moment, she finally said, “Master, you’re about to leave, right?”
“Yes,”
Su Zimo nodded and did not hide anything. “You’ve already cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm. It’s time for you to head out and train yourself in the cultivation world.”
Beiming Xue remained silent.
She also knew in her heart that her master could not be by her side the entire time, protecting her from all dangers as she grew.
However, that was a wish she had nevertheless.
Even if her cultivation did not advance at all, she hoped that her master would always be by her side, guarding and protecting her.
Beiming Xue took a deep breath and composed herself before long. She put away the thoughts in her mind and said, “Alright, I’ll take a look at the cultivation world outside right away! Don’t worry, master, I’ll definitely not embarrass you!”
Before long, today’s events would spread through the entire cultivation world.
At that time, all the cultivators in the world would know that she was Desolate Martial’s eldest disciple!
At that time, there might be dangers and challenges awaiting her.
All of those would become the foundation for her to temper her Martial Dao!
“Where are you intending to go, master?”
Beiming Xue asked again.
“Since I’m in the South Region, I intend to meet an old friend,”
The voice of the little monk flashed through Su Zimo’s mind as he murmured, “It’s been a long time since I’ve received any news of him. I’m worried.”
“You have to raise your cultivation as soon as possible. There will probably be many calamities in Tianhuang Mainland in the future. Without immense strength, you might even die, let alone protect your family clan.”
Su Zimo reminded again.
His worries were not unfounded.
All signs indicated that Tianhuang Mainland was about to descend into chaos!
A massive change was about to happen!
This change was extremely likely to sweep through the entire Tianhuang Mainland and no sect, faction or race would be spared!
…
In the depths of the South Sea[1].
The sea possessed a massive amount of living beings that far surpassed the land.
The resources in the sea were extremely rich and countless experts were born.
There were eight demon regions in Tianhuang Mainland and three of them were the East, South and North Seas!
The sea contained countless secrets. It was said that among the three seas, there were the most number of primordial ruins and they were the most intact!
The depths of the sea could reach hundreds of thousands of meters.
There were not many living beings at the bottom of the sea anymore.
That was because as the depths of the sea increased, the pressure around the seawater increased as well. Without a Conjoint Body realm cultivation, one would not be able to survive in the depths of the sea!
At that moment, a figure sat at the bottom of the dark sea in the South Sea.
The figure had shoulder-length scarlet hair that burned like flames and did not show any signs of extinguishing even in the depths of the sea!
The Dragon True Body!
Although the Dragon True Body was still at the Dharma Characteristic realm, he could still survive in the deep oceans with his body and bloodline.
After receiving the guidance of a mysterious expert, the Dragon True Body dived into the depths of the sea and cultivated the Sea Calming Manual.
The Dragon True Body could survive at the bottom of the sea.
However, that did not mean that he could move freely at the bottom of the sea.
Even with his physique and bloodline, he could still feel an extremely terrifying pressure at the bottom of the sea.
Every single action required hundreds of times more energy than on land!
When he used his saber underwater, the water pressure would cause every single slash to become extremely slow and difficult.
Despite the circumstances, the Dragon True Body gritted his teeth and cultivated continuously.
After three years of cultivation, the comprehension of the Dragon True Body on the Dao of the saber deepened.
He had finally comprehended the profound meaning of Sea Calming.
Without seeing the sea personally, one would never be able to comprehend the true essence of the Sea Calming Manual.
Without experiencing the raging tides of the sea personally, one would never be able to experience the power of Sea Calming!
For the past three years, the cultivation of his Dragon True Body was still at the Dharma Characteristic realm and had not broken through.
However, in terms of the Dao of the saber, he had a new understanding!
This day.
The Dragon True Body cultivated at the bottom of the sea with his eyes closed and constantly retracted his saber.
All of a sudden!
The Dragon True Body opened his eyes.
It was as though two divine lights burst forth from the dark depths of the sea, illuminating it!
Under the illumination of the divine light, the Dragon True Body could clearly see that three faint figures were charging towards him along the undercurrent with a murderous intent!
They were hostile!
The three of them were extremely fast and arrived before him in the blink of an eye!
Three Mighty Figures!
With a single sweep of his spirit consciousness, the Dragon True Body could sense that all three figures were at the Conjoint Body realm!
A look of mockery flashed through the eyes of the Dragon True Body.
Without seeing what the Dragon True Body did, his spirit consciousness moved and the saber on his knees suddenly bounced into his palm.
The Dragon True Body had an indifferent expression as he gripped the Dragon Soul Saber and slashed forward!
That slashed sliced air completely and nobody was struck.
The three figures that were charging over were delighted.
“Seems like this person doesn’t have any tricks up his sleeves. To think that his slash would miss!”
The moment that thought crossed their minds, their expressions changed!
After the slash landed, a gigantic vortex was formed where the blade’s edge passed. It was earthshaking and stirred the entire sea!
It was not so obvious within the depths of the sea.
However, if someone were to stand in the sky and look down at the surface of the sea, they would be able to clearly see that the seawater was gathering and spinning continuously, forming a gigantic vortex!
The depths of the vortex seemed to be able to reach the bottom of the sea!
In the deep sea, three Conjoint Body Mighty Figures had just attacked when they were moved by the power of the gigantic vortex and their Destiny Dharmic Weapons deviated from their original trajectories.
Even the three of them could not control their bodies and were swept by the terrifying power of the vortex, surging in the direction of the Dragon Soul Saber!
The three Mighty Figures were shocked!
The might of that casual slash was so terrifying!
This person was only at the Dharma Characteristic realm—how could he slash with such a saber technique?
That slash had already contained the momentum of Heaven and Earth!
That was a power that only Conjoint Body Mighty Figures could come into contact with!
The moment that thought crossed the minds of the three Conjoint Body Mighty Figures, the Dragon True Body retracted his Dragon Soul Saber and slashed out once more.
Swoosh!
A wave that was hundreds of thousands of meters tall surged towards the three of them.
This was not actual seawater, but waves formed from saber qi that possessed an extremely sharp edge that could crush all living beings!
Without hesitation, the three Mighty Figures channeled their Essence Spirits wildly and conjured Dharmic arts one after another. They controlled their Destiny Dharmic Weapons and charged towards the wave.
Boom!
There was a deafening sound.
As though they were struck by lightning, cracks appeared on the robes of the three Mighty Figures and they were filled with injuries and fresh blood!
Endless fear filled the eyes of the three Mighty Figures.
