Chapter 572 Someone From the Pas (2/2)
It may sound stubborn but it was Shen Lian's determination to not be affected by external distractions.
However, if he refused to go forward, he needs to have an escape plan. The supernatural power of the monk looked somewhat similar to Heng'e's Milky Way and it probably was one of the supernatural powers of the Buddhist Kingdom on the Palm. It was indeed true that arriving at the cultivation state of Taiyi did not necessarily mean that one would be unmatchable. Techniques that used the Dao of Space was still something Shen Lian was not capable of applying even if he understood the principles behind it.
Fortunately, he did not need to apply the techniques. He just had to figure a way out to overcome it.
The monk's techniques were not as flawless and impeccable as Heng'e's Milky Way.
Shen Lian's Taixu Strategy was a supreme method and not many ordinary celestials were comparable to it. He had mastered the 'Interpromotion and Interrestraint' of the four states and the 'restrict' state had the beauty of seeing through thousands of methods. Moreover, he was in good form and his eyesight was almost on par with the legendary clairvoyance sight.
He was able to see through the weakness of the monk's power.
At that very moment, a bloodied cloud appeared on top of the Blood Sea. There were twelve people standing on the cloud and each of them looked extraordinary. Among them, one had a horsetail whisk on his hand and had an air of Dao around him. It was clear that he was beyond the remaining eleven.
The Daoist with the horsetail whisk was the only one without the sword. The rest had a sword and was oozing with killing aura. Even if the grudges of the Blood Sea was over the top, the lost souls did not dare to go near to the bloodied cloud.
The Daoist who was leading the pact looked at the shore of the Blood Sea and saw Shen Lian. He was extremely moved and said, ”Junior Apprentice-Brother Chen was right! Junior Apprentice-Brother Shen is indeed here!”
The eleven people behind him had solemn faces. They were all in different body shapes and sizes but it was clear that they cultivated the same Dao incantation and swordsmanship. Their divine Qi was interconnected although they did not do it on purpose.
One of them said, ”Senior Uncle-Master, why did the Chief Uncle-Master not notice us despite his cultivation level?”
”You are right. Looks like Junior Apprentice-Brother Shen is in trouble. There is only one monk in the Blood Sea that is capable of making things difficult for him. Apprentice-Nephew, I know now why your master sent us here. Looks like he had predicted this scenario. Come, let us form our formation,” the Daoist answered calmly.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
He swung his horsetail whisk and the eleven swordsmen stood apart. Their sword aura dashed up the clouds as their murderous thoughts surged. It then condensed to form a bright red colored Tongtian Sword Cloud.
The sword cloud condensed and the surroundings waves of blood started to surge. It then stood still and eleven sword gleams flew and blended into the sword cloud.
The Daoist started to chant as he swung his horsetail whisk. He swung it downwards and then the sword cloud charged towards Shen Lian's direction.
A sizzling sound could be heard across the void as a golden dragon leaped out and bit the sword cloud.
The Daoist snorted, ”It was indeed the monk's Dawei Heavenly Dragon.”
He tossed the horsetail whisk and it expanded once it came in contact with the wind. In a speed quicker than the sword cloud, it released dashes of silk and tied up the golden dragon. The sword cloud then traveled past the dragon like a fish and arrived above Shen Lian.
The Buddhist ray then shattered and Shen Lian looked up to the sky and noticed the sword cloud. He did not have the time to be surprised by the familiarity of the Qi of sword as he released a breath towards the sword cloud.
