1004 The Information Revealed By Ren Qiushui (1/2)

The Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception?

Although Ren Qiushui had always been confident that her swordplay was top notch and not inferior to any martial skills throughout the ages, her heart was still shaken when she heard the mysterious man in front of her say the words Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception in a nonchalant tone.

The words Buddhism originated from Tathagata and Taoism from Heaven Interception were commonly passed down. Even if they were exaggerated — like the Sambhogakaya cultivation and Path Attainment in Dream of Amitabha had nothing to do with Tathagata. Taoism has an inheritance from The Three Pure Ones, Yuanshi, Daode and Lingbao, but they also vividly showed the status of the Buddha's Palm and the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception.

At least until now, there were only Gautama Buddha and the Heavenly Primogenitor who had been recognized as truly achieved transcendence and attained the Realm of Dao. Even though their deeds could no longer be examined and hadn't appeared for a long time hence people did not believe in them, but other big shots did not even have rumors of achieving transcendence. Comparing the two, the difference was obvious.

In today's world, Buddhism was striving and the Buddha's Palm was always heard whereas the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception had long been lost and not made an appearance for tens of thousands of years. Despite this, many Taoism and heretical sects had inextricable links with Heaven Interception. For example, Heaven and Earth Sword Sect's Wuji Sword of Wilderness had always been said to be derived from the Heaven Interception. Of course, this had always been limited to rumors and never had any direct or indirect evidence.

If the green-robed man in front of her hadn't revealed the origins and name of her swordplay directly, making one feel that he was mysterious and unpredictable, she would have taken his words on the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception as a joke and couldn't care less.

Ren Qiushui's clenched right fist loosened up. With shining eyes, she suddenly let out a smile and raised her index finger.

”The Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception, huh?” she muttered and her long finger suddenly struck.

Void space turned into a sword with indiscernible implications. Meng Qi suddenly felt the surrounding things peeling off in layers and disappearing, leaving only him receiving the extrusion from all directions. If he couldn't get out from the restraint, he would be smashed up sooner or later.

The table beside the window seemed to have isolated out of the world — its bustling surroundings remained the same and none of the guests realized anything unusual. They only felt that against the vast river, the scene of the gentle beauty in men's attire and the slightly weary green-robed man sitting opposite each other was as beautiful as a meaningful painting.

With a strike of her finger, Ren Qiushui displayed the Celestial Slashing Sword to its fullest, leaving no space for anyone's existence. However, she saw the green-robed man also raise his finger, striking gently likewise.

The sword beam was bright, diving into two, and then four followed by eight, filling the entire void space instantaneously, and every sword beam was of equal strength as the initial one.

They seemed to exist in different spaces and were unable to overlap directly to increase the power of the sword beam by tens of thousands of times, but seemed to be everywhere and spread all over the entire world.

The sword beams were like gorgeous lightning, bending and hitting at the same place with amazing control. Each of them were different but followed on closely, making surging tides look pale in comparison!

Bang!

Facing these tens of thousands of sword beams, the void was unable to recover or wait for help, collapsing after endless blows.

The restraint broke down by itself and the void disappeared, leaving behind the surging river and red water surface due to the sunset. Ren Qiushui's index finger froze in front of her and she pulled it back only after a long while. Her eyes were bright as she sighed and lamented, ”It is indeed a supreme swordplay that I have never seen before.”

Only a person who had personally witnessed it would understand the terror and brilliance of the swordplay. It was not below her Celestial Slashing Swordplay, and was perhaps one of the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception.

Actually, for a swordplay that had reached this level, it was no longer important whether it was the Seven Strokes of Heaven Interception or not.

”The Celestial Slashing Swordplay also lives up to its reputation,” Meng Qi raised his teacup and toasted from a distance.

Ren Qiushui held her teacup and took a sip. Looking absentminded as though she was recollecting the swordplay earlier on, she sighed, ”Your swordplay is powerful and your level is also similar to mine. Why haven't there been any words about your achievements?”

She subconsciously asked Meng Qi his origins.

After the display of swordsmanship earlier on, Ren Qiushui realized that even if the other party wasn't an earth immortal, he wasn't far from it.

Meng Qi shook his head and laughed, ”My origins are the same as yours, Fairy Ren.”

It was normal for a person to receive teachings of the Celestial Slashing Sword and become famous after practising hard and attaining Dharmakaya, but Ren Qiushui was already a Dharmakaya when people knew about her. Without sufficient experience and practice, it is impossible to cultivate oneself to Dharmakaya and overcome the shackles to immortality, but Ren Qiushui never had any news on her achievements in this area. Therefore, Meng Qi suspected her to be a mighty person's successor who entered the world due to some reason and also dressed herself as such a character.
