Painting of the Nine Immortals

Chapter 689: The Hand of Breakage

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

The Cliff of Enlightenment is divided into two parts. Some people’s experiences and learnings are carved on the outside of the mountain, and others leave their best techniques inside the caves of the mountains.

Without a doubt, all those who are able to, and decides to leave behind instructions for techniques are powerful cultivators. Even the least capable would belong to the original level. Or else they wouldn’t be able to leave their techniques at this place.

In other words, every single sword’s intent was left behind by powerhouses and were incomparably terrifying!

Especially now, when all 10 killer’s intents emerged, they were all emitting terrifying aura. It was as if they could split open the sky and crush the stars into pieces.

However, not only was Ling Xian not afraid, he was high off his battling desires and full of hope.

His head was held up high and his white robe was floating in the air from his killer’s intent. His own killer sword was acting demonically and fought against the 10 other killer swords’ intent.

At the same time, he was using the technique learned from the Slay Sword Peak in an attempt to get rid of the killer swords before him.

HOMMMMM!

The killer swords’ intents all clashed together and hurriedly tore towards Ling Xian with an unbelievable amount of energy.

“Nice!”

Shouting, Ling Xian’s battling desire rose higher and he unleashed all the energy he could summon into his killer sword.

Just then, the silhouette of a giant sword appeared behind him and emitted a chilling killer’s intent and extremely terrifying power.

HOMMMM!

The killer sword’s intent was roaring and unstoppable. Those that were attacking him were even more powerful than imagined. For so many of them to be attacking together was truly undefendable!

However, despite their powerfulness, Ling Xian was even stronger.

His own battling abilities were extremely powerful. After his killer sword swallowed the two swords, it had improved a lot as well. The combination of them resulted in the explosion of extreme prowess.

“Become a part of my killer sword.”

Lifting the corner of his lips, Ling Xian’s hands rested behind his back. His casual and at ease posture made him look like he was the God who deems everyone’s fate.

The extremely powerful sword’s intent of his was just as horrifying. It was as if the swords’ intent was the killer God and could destroy buddhas.

HOMMMM, HOMMMMM, HOMMM!

The rumbling of everything was now ear-splitting. Every time there was a noise, another killer sword’s intent was destroyed.

Within minutes, seven killer swords’ intent was destroyed!

This army of swords’ intent was weakening in power. Yet Ling Xian’s was growing stronger!

After all, every time an enemy’s sword’s intent was destroyed, the sword that destroyed it increased in power. Therefore, as the battle went on, the army of killer swords was getting weaker. At the very end, only three remained and endured.

“The remainder of you might be powerful. But you are merely a killer sword’s intent.”

Speaking softly, Ling Xian began to manipulate his killer’s sword’s intent. Immediately, the sword’s intent began to grow and it immediately swallowed the other three.

After all this, he had swallowed 33 sword’s intent. After defeating them, the giant silhouette of the sword behind him materialized more and more. Its demeanor also grew more and more horrifying.

To estimate conservatively, this killer sword’s powerfulness increased at least by fivefold!

To know that this killer sword itself was a great technique, now that so many other killer’s sword’s intents were indulged by it, of course, it would strengthen greatly. Though it cannot be compared to the unparalleled technique Ling Xian knew, it would definitely be one of the strongest killer swords!

“Not bad. After eating away so many other killer swords, my own has reached a new realm itself.”

Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. “Just from this, my trip has been worthy. Let alone I am about to encounter even more opportunities.”

Then, he shifted his gaze towards the wall to his left. His eyes were blinking was a heated gaze.

When he just entered, he had felt that the entire place was full of carvings. In other words, many, many techniques were hidden inside.

Therefore, why wouldn’t he have high expectations?

Of course, it didn’t mean all of these techniques will soon be his. The most important factor was still whether or not he had the enlightenment abilities. Only if he does, will he be able to understand all the inheritances left behind by the powerhouses.

Ling Xian was very confident about this.

“With my own enlightenment abilities, I think I can at least learn a few.”

The corner of Ling Xian’s lips lifted. He marched forward and arrived at the left side of the mountain.

Then, he slowly closed his eyes and rested his right hand on the wall of the mountain. Immediately, the wall cracked open and an eerier vibe began to fill the air.

This “crack” was one of the ways Taoists used to store their Qi and techniques. Only those of the original level or higher, those with a more thorough understanding of Heaven and Earth, could use this method to store their Qi.

In other words, only those of the original level or above could leave cracks behind. And if they were original leveled cultivators, their techniques weren’t going to be flukes.

Even if they were weak, they wouldn’t really be weak!

Therefore, Ling Xian focused. He searched for cracks using his Qi and used his enlightenment abilities to study the content.

One has to admit, his enlightenment abilities were amazing. After moments of time, he had learned the name of the technique.

The Hand of Breakage.

This technique was useful for close range battles. It was named after its effects of being able to break others’ bones and meridians. It could be categorized as an extraordinary technique.

After finding this out, Ling Xian’s heart wavered.

Don’t forget, he had an extremely powerful physique and this technique, without a doubt, suited him well. Though he already had the unparalleled Disorder Conquering Fists, to learn another one was always a plus.

Thus, he concentrated and enlightened himself with this technique.

With his enlightenment abilities, to successfully learn this technique was not difficult. However, this was a rare technique after all. Even geniuses with the highest level of enlightenment would not be able to finish learning about it in such a short period of time.

For Ling Xian to already know it in seconds was unbelievable. Based on his estimation, it would take him around two hours to fully learn this technique.

The result was just as he predicted.

After two hours, he slowly opened his eyes and his right hand left the wall of the cave.

This meant he had succeeded.

One has to admit that he was highly enlightened. Even the other geniuses with high enlightenment abilities would need days to learn a technique like the Hand of Breakage.

Yet he merely needed two hours. How unbelievable was this? If this news passed around, countless people would be shocked before their shock is replaced by jealousy.

“I have succeeded.”

Ling Xian revealed a bright smile. He planned on using this technique and trying it out. However, just as he was about to use it, he brows suddenly lifted.

Because his Qi had sensed that another person had appeared at the Cliff of Enlightenment. It was someone he was very familiar with.

“Yu Wu Xiu, you have finally arrived.”

Ling Xian’s brows relaxed. In the snap of a finger, he switched his original self with the clone.

To tempt Yu Wu Xiu, he naturally cannot use his original self. Or else why would she take the bait?

After successfully switching to his clone self, Ling Xian pretended that nothing had happened. He paced around the cave casually and waited for the woman to enter.

He waited for the fated battle.
