Chapter 204 Restrain (2/2)

What came next was a powerful sword aura whizzed towards Zuo Shaoqing by Choushi.

The flow of the sword aura stirred up the Qi of vitality. All of a sudden, a seemingly turbulent storm was stirred up but it was extinguished quickly.

The light ray which was swimming between the sword aura of the True Wandering Light Sword soon 'swallowed the cloud and destroyed the water'.

Regardless of how much True Wandering Light Sword aura there was, it was kept in check by the light ray. In the end, there was nothing left in the air. A sword aura was circulating around the body of Zuo Shaoqing, as if he was tied up by a rope.

Zuo Shaoqing, in reality, felt that his mana was all beaten up by the light ray as if he met his mortal enemy.

From the moment Zuo Shaoqing brought up the sword ball, to sword rays running wild, to how the light ray trapped up Zuo Shaoqing in the end – they all happened in the blink of an eye. Ge Yuan too found it to be rather astonishing.

It was not because of how crafty Choushi's sword aura was, but it was clear to everyone present that while the sword aura might not be perfect, it was the real mortal enemy of the True Wandering Light Sword.

As a result, when the two came in contact, Zuo Shaoqing's True Wandering Light Sword aura all turned into mere decoration.

Meng Xunzhen and Jiang Shuijie were panicking. Their fundamentals were built on Wandering Light Sword. Even if they had other techniques to refer to from other sects, it was difficult to change the fundamentals of the mana. Unless if one managed to go beyond mortality and repair one's own system, that would also be something that could happen when one reached immortality.

The light ray returned to Choushi, and the sword ball of Zuo Shaoqing fell to the ground. Its color was dull as if a great pearl had been covered in dust.

Choushi smiled, ”Thank you for letting me win.”

Zuo Shaoqing spoke in a bitter voice, ”What was the technique called?”

Choushi responded, ”It was created by our chief recently. I am not sure.”

Zuo Shaoqing looked towards Shen Lian. He was not brainless and he knew why Shen Lian created it – to keep Wandering Light Sword under control.

Shen Lian nodded, ”I am still far from completing it. It is not sufficient to use it to achieve immortality, but it has the ability to keep Wandering Light Sword under control.”

When Meng Xunzhen heard what Shen Lian said, he thought on one occasion all of a sudden. He spits out some blood, and with blood in his mouth, he spoke angrily, ”When you keep us here, you have stolen our secret.”

He still did not know how and what did Shen Lian do to steal their secret. With the secret, Shen Lian, in turn, created the technique to restrain it.

The only thing he did not think of was that it was not so simple to steal someone's secret and find out about its weakness and design a system to restrain the other's technique.

It was because he did not understand Taixu Strategy. Taixu Strategy was built based on the eight Qis. It could blend in well with most Daoist techniques and imitate their power.

That was where the restraint came from, from the principle of interpromotion and interrestraint. Once he understood the basis of the power, he could use the restraint principle to create something that could keep the other technique in check.

If one could reach the highest level in Taixu Strategy, there were only a few techniques in the world from the very best Daoist sect could be prevented from being restrained.

The more Jiang Shuijie thought about it, the more he realized if Qingjiang Sword Sect did not change their fundamental technique, they would be under restraint forever.
