Chapter 377 Sword Aura of Green Smoke (2/2)
The gathering of the dark clouds was caused by the convergence of the Qi dynamic of Yin and Yang. Choushi had used his own Qi dynamic to trigger the explosion of the Yin and Yang convergence of the dark clouds.
A lightning struck and the thunder shook the cloud platform.
Under the Divine Thunder, the power of the spiritual Dao technique that Ruoxi had mastered would be severely discounted. At the same time, the cloud platform made out of clouds was situated high up in the air. As it was not far from the dark clouds in the first place, it was affected as well. It was charged with thunder and lightning.
This caused the battle venue to experience the brightness of the day. It also gave rise to chaotic Qi dynamic which had disturbed Ruoxi.
The disciples who were spectating saw the strong lightning, which illuminated Junior Apprentice-Sister Shen's face - she was calm and unaffected.
Her pine branch swayed gently and gracefully. Its overlapping shadows traveled at least one hundred feet, shattering both the lightning and divine aura emitted by Choushi.
Despite the lack of manifestation of her murderous intent, but the disciples who were spectating knew that if they were the one who was caught in this situation, they would definitely have lost to this move.
Choushi's face darkened. A small hole appeared on his sleeve. Junior Apprentice-Sister Shen's move earlier had gotten close enough to him. Its speed and precision were above that of Zhao Siming.
At the same time, the sword aura emitted by the pine branch altered the balance of Yin and Yang. It had eliminated the Qi dynamic of Yin and Yang within the clouds through the Technique of Two Poles.
This had effectively calmed the lightning and thunder.
Being the calculative person that he was, he was not too disappointed.
He shook his Dao robes and his mana started rolling like a powerful river.
A gust of dark green smoke was coming out from the top of his head. Immediately, it transformed into countless small and intense sword aura. They charged at Ruoxi - just as how the autumn wind would caress the fallen leaves.
Gu Caiwei remarked surprisingly, ”He even learned Chang Qingzi's 'Sword Aura of Green Smoke'.”
Of course, Shen Lian had heard about Chang Qingzi. He enjoyed quite a reputation in the cultivation community. His real name was Li Shouzhuo and was an orphan. However, he had an unexpected encounter, in which he had ingested a demonic elixir. Not only did he survive, he was a changed man. He managed to build up a solid Dao foundation. Subsequently, he cultivated to the point of awakened entrance and started having mana.
After, he started to seek out the celestials and learn about Daoism. He had traveled through all of the famous mountains and huge rivers. However, due to his age and his previous informal methods of martial exercises, the hint of malicious Qi in his Dao foundation that stemmed from the demonic elixir remained. Hence, he was not taken in by any of the celestial sects. In the end, he lost the drive and retired in a quiet village after getting married to a normal woman.
One day, after coming back from visiting his friend, he found that everyone in his village, his family included, had been massacred by a demon clan.
The demon clan was a shape-shifting demon king. At that point in time, he was not equipped to do anything. However, after stumbling across a nameless sword scripture by chance and having attained Huandan, he set out to seek revenge on the demon king. Since then, he hated all of the demon clans in the world and would kill every demon that he came across.
His temperament was extreme and he found himself in constant solitude. At last, he set out at sea and there was no news about him in hundreds of years.
However, before he set out, he had his last battle at a huge desert. The swordcraft he was using back then was the Sword Aura of Green Smoke. He made a name for himself by slaying a doyen from the Green Lotus Sword Sect.
The Green Lotus Codex of the Sword of Green Lotus Sword Sect was a remarkable offense technique. In that battle, the Sword Aura of Green Smoke triumphed over it. It was no surprise that the world was shocked.
Choushi remained static and his gaze was intense. The numerous sword auras were slashing all over the sky. There were even ravines in the clouds created by Shen Lian.
Some disciples were worried for Junior Apprentice-Sister Shen and hoped that she would emerge unscathed.
