Chapter 298:
The Power of a Sword, a Man Among Immortals
The clank of the spiritual sword was like the sound of a dragon!
When Zhang Ao was about to use the spiritual sword to perform the skill of a Celestial Master Taoist, he saw Lu Xuan grasp it with one hand. Then, the spiritual sword directly broke free from Zhang Ao’s palm and turned into a stream of light before landing into Lu Xuan’s hand.
“This is a good sword, but it’s a waste if you used it. It’s become dusty!”
Lu Xuan grinned.
Zhang Ao was a bit dumbfounded. He did not expect the spiritual sword in his hand to be this easily robbed.
He had practiced with this sword for many years. When he was very young, because of his outstanding cultivation talent, he was rewarded with this spiritual sword by his elders. It was said to have been carried by a Celestial Master Zhang in a certain generation.
It was a big deal.
Just because of the lack of spirit qi in the world, the sword had gradually degraded. It went from a spiritual sword to an ordinary weapon.
But even so, it was still a very good rare item.
Later, with the revival of the world’s spirit qi during the last few years, this spiritual sword had also gradually revived.
Zhang Aho had defeated many people with this sword.
However, he never expected that Lu Xuan would s.n.a.t.c.h his sword away so easily.
He activated the mental imprint within the sword, but it was of no use, as he could not get it back.
The spiritual sword did not react!
“Watch closely at how this kind of power item should be used!” Lu Xuan shouted loudly as the Spiritual Qi on his body was instilled into the spiritual sword.
Boom!
In an instant, a terrifying sword qi swept out.
All of a sudden, the sword qi rose into the sky, reaching hundreds of meters high. It directly broke the morning fog on Wuyi Mountain.
Under the suppression of the terrifying sword qi, Zhang Ao immediately felt a strong pressure. The spiritual sword stood vertically between the ground and the sky. It was like the most terrifying sacred mountain in the world.
Once it collapsed, he felt that the sky would fall apart.
“What a powerful sword qi. How can it be so powerful?!”
It was only at this time that he finally understood why Lu Xuan had said with the spiritual sword in his hand; it was like a pearl covered with dust.
If it were him, even if he were in the Celestial Realm, it would already be amazing if he could force the sword qi out more than ten meters far.
But now, he knew how far their gap was.
When he was using the sword, it had become a normal weapon.
But when Lu Xuan used it, he could exert the sword’s shocking power easily.
It was easy to imagine how huge their gap was.
That hundreds of meters tall sword qi descended inch by inch. Zhang Ao could almost feel the type of terrifying pressure of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him.
Zhang Ao was trembling all over, and the Spiritual Qi continued to burst out to counter the pressure, but it was of no use.
Boom!
At last, all his defenses, all his self-esteem were crushed, as he knelt directly on his knees and prostrated himself on the ground.
Life and death were no longer under his control.
All of this felt like a long time for him, as every minute and every second felt to be as long as a century.
As for Lu Xuan, as long as he let the sword qi down, Zhang Ao would surely die.
Suddenly, the stream of sword qi disappeared in mid-air. It had disappeared without a trace, and immediately afterward, Zhang Ao saw a flash of sword light in front of him, as the spiritual sword was inserted on the ground.
However, it no longer had the kind of strength like it contained earlier when Lu Xuan was holding it. It was as if it could cut down a corner of the sky.
Instead, it transformed back into an ordinary weapon again.
It could be seen that although it was a power item, it had completely different powers when used by different people.
Zhang Ao finally understood what a gap in strength meant!
The reason why Lu Xuan had such a great reputation was not that there were no capable people so he stood out, but because he was a true dragon that occupied a valley.
That was why he had said that Zhang Ao was not qualified to say those words. In front of such a top expert, he really was not qualified.
What was terror? This was terror!
“You see, you are still too naïve. You can’t be too proud. Do you think that by relying on the name Celestial Master Taoist of the Zhang family, everyone will need to respect you?” Lu Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile. “Look at you. If you meet a devil like me, who specializes in bullying second-generation ancestors, then it would be the end for you!
“Real strength does not lie in what background people come from, but in their own strength. If you can understand this, you might still be able to save yourself!”
Lu Xuan shook his head and spoke as if he was educating a younger generation even though Zhang Ao was much older than him.
However, he had lived for many years in his previous life, so naturally, he was qualified and had the mentality to say these things.
Zhang Ao was trembling and sweating all over his body. It was as if he had walked through the gates of h.e.l.l. In the end, he finally got up and put away his sword. Then, he saluted Lu Xuan and said, “Thank you, Mr. Lu. I was ignorant and had underestimated the hero of the world!”
Zhang Ao finally recovered from his state of mind and had understood Lu Xuan’s words. Indeed, he was not qualified.
If it hadn’t been for the name Celestial Master Taoist of the Zhang master, he probably would not even have the right to speak in front of Lu Xuan.
Although he has stepped into the Celestial Realm and was already a top expert in the world, it was of no use in front of a terrifying demon who specialized in bullying second-generation ancestors.
“It is my ancestor grandpa who made an appointment with Mister Lu today. He is a Celestial Master Zhang from the 53rd generation. Ancestor grandpa should be here soon!” Zhang Ao said.
The Celestial Masters of the Zhang family were not only limited to his elders, but also his relative elders.
Because the Celestial Master Taoists were virtuous, they were allowed to have a family. The Zhang family was the orthodoxy that had been in charge of Celestial Master Taoists from generation to generation.
Those who were not allowed to have a family were of the Quanzhen faction.
“He’s already here!” Lu Xuan said faintly. Since earlier, he had already felt a strong force that was lying dormant around him, even though it was well hidden.
However, it was impossible to be hidden from Lu Xuan’s senses.
Especially when he broke out that amazing sword light earlier, he had felt that strong force locking onto him, as if warning him not to do anything without authorization.
At that time, Lu Xuan understood that the Lord had arrived a long time ago.
“Ah, I am old Taoist Zhang Fashan. Greetings, Mr. Lu!”
Suddenly, a figure pa.s.sed arrived in front of Lu Xuan from a distance. It was an old Taoist who looked to be around 60 to 70-years-old.
When the old Taoist arrived in front of Lu Xuan, he slightly inspected Lu Xuan and said, “After seeing Mr. Lu today, you indeed seem like a Celestial!”
Lu Xuan looked at the old Taoist and said, “It turns out to be the Celestial Master Zhang of the 53rd generation. Greetings!”
As far as Lu Xuan knew, the Celestial Master Taoist Zhang had already been pa.s.sed down to the 63rd generation. This 53rd-generation-old Taoist was at least hundreds of years old, and probably already had a great reputation before Liu Bowen cut the dragon’s vein.
