Chapter 1212: The Celestial Sect of Wonder’s Swordplay... And It’s Not The Heavenly-Destroying Sword

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Layers after layers of purple sword shadows flickered between heaven and earth and clashed with the green radiances continuously. The patches of green appeared to be infuriated by the Taiji Diagram formed by Luo Qingwu’s immortal soul and the purple light she produced.

However, the sharp and arching patches of purple light appeared inferior in terms of scale, but it was actually superior in terms of quality. The radiant sword minds held its own against the Saintly Celestial Primordial Sword Formation’s green light and neither party held back.

Zhuge Gan was supporting Luo Qingwu from the side. He felt Luo Qingwu’s mystical and authentic sword mind after she had just ascended to the immortal soul stage and he nodded his head repeatedly. “So impressive... Even though she has just reached the immortal soul stage.”

The Xuanche Sword and the Seven Treasures Bamboo Fire Cane were swept by the Taiji Diagram. The Taiji Diagram rotated once in the void and, between the permeating purple sword radiances in the sky, Luo Qingwu returned to her original form.

The young girl positioned herself in the void and she was still wearing a purple robe. The flowing black hair behind her head was secured by a single white jade hairpin.

At this moment, even her head began to flicker with radiant purple light.

The young girl flashed a warm smile and it appeared like she was extremely happy. She seemed like a little child in this instant and muttered under her breath, “Master, I have succeeded.”

She extended her empty right hand and the black ice crystal reappeared on her palm before it concentrated into a sword of ice. This sword’s body was pitch black and released a concept of power that was the ultimate form of Yin, ice and of darkness.

The Xuanche Sword of now was very different from before. The clear and crispy clean blade that didn’t reflect a single ray of light appeared to flicker with a single stream of purple light.

It felt as if the center of the blade formed by the black ice crystal had an ice marrow.

The purple light continued to shimmer within the black sword blade and shifted about unpredictably. However, the intense chill and sword mind flowing out from the Xuanche Sword was far deeper and much colder than before.

The aura of the sword mind spun around in the skies and appeared like it was going to seal the entire heaven and earth into ice, as if the whole world was about to descend into eternal darkness and silence.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others were dark and gloomy. The knew that Luo Qingwu took the opportunity during her ascension to the immortal soul stage to forge her own sword. She took the chance to forge her sword into magic treasure.

What affected the Mount Shu’s company even more was that Luo Qingwu’s Xuanche Sword, her personal sword mind, and the mantras of the Celestial Sect of Wonders as well as the unique strength of her Pure Ying Being were combined together seamlessly. Even though the magic treasure was newly formed, its fearsome and acute aura made it far stronger than most of the other gestation-level magic treasures in the world.

It was also a sword, and its sword mind was also as icy as ever. However, Luo Qingwu’s gestation-level Xuanche Sword’s aura appeared to be more radiant than the Heaven Lake Sect’s metaplasia-level magic item, the Ice and Soul Clouds.

It was possibly weaker in terms of power and strength, but the sharpness of its sword mind and its coldness seemed to be superior.

Luo Qingwu watched the Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others with a plain expression. She flashed a faint smile before she directed the Xuanche Sword’s tip and a streak of purple sword radiance immediately pierced through the void and slashed towards the Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster’s face changed as he channeled the Grand Moon Sword passage to the highest possible level. Countless air strands waltzed around in the air and condensed together to form a cloudy mist and attempted to block Luo Qingwu’s strike.

However, Luo Qingwu’s purple sword radiance flashed once in the sky. After it came into contact with the cloudy mist before the Grand Moon Swordmaster, every air strand formed by the Grand Moon Sword passage became frozen soundlessly and became purple-colored ice crystals.

The ice crytals weren’t formed by a complete freezing over the cloudy mist. The innumerable air starnds in the sky were individually frozen, and every strand formed a meandering ice crystal thread.

The air strands were compact and tightly wound around each other. However, under the effects of the colored sword radiance, every single strand could be seen with clarity as they were separately frozen in place.

The problem was that even though these air strands were now distinct from each other, not a single one could change its destiny.

Every single air strand that came into contact with the purple sword radiance was completely frozen.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster’s expression changed once again. He took up the Guanchong Sword once again without hesitation and changed the Grand Moon Sword passage to the Guanchong Sword passage. He activated the power of the Guanchong Sword passage, which was the sword amongst the Mount Shu Six Passages of Sword which was most adept at defensive capabilities, and channeled it to the highest possible level.

Streaks of black sword radiance shot up from the ground and resembled an entire city wall as they enveloped the Grand Moon Swordmaster and his company.

Luo Qingwu’s purple sword radiance completely disregarded this and pushed forward with unstoppable force. This formidable power caused the Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others to enter the insidious world where Yin and Yang were separated once more.

Pale white radiance that glimmered with an icy-blue hue began to appear within the dense purple sword radiance.

Outside of the purple light, within the space that the Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others were located in, streaks of light that appeared like black smoke rose up into the sky.

These smoke-like lights flickered and formed a pincer-like attack with Luo Qingwu’s purple sword radiance on the outside, and eventually continually shattered the Guanchong Sword’s sword radiance.

The dense and weighty sword radiance that appeared impregnable seemed incredibly weak at this moment.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster continued to maintain the defensive barrier with his mana and his sword mind, but his speed at creating new sword radiances to plug in the gaps were nowhere near as fast as Luo Qingwu’s destruction of them.

Finally, the dark and heavy Guanchong Sword’s sword mind and its sword radiances were completely annihilated by Luo Qingwu’s single strike. This single frightening slash then directly landed on the body of the Guanchong Sword.

The Guanchong Sword of the six heavenly swords from Mount Shu immediately released an agonizing howl.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster and the others’ eyes were about to burst out of their sockets. Voluminous cracks began to appear on the surface of the Guanchong Sword’s broad sword blade at a speed distinguishable to the naked eye.

Even though the Grand Moon Swordmaster’s practice of the Guanchong Sword passage was just a side track, he was in the second-level immortal soul stage and he was wielding a metaplasia-level magic item. The power that he could release was riveting, but he could only watch as he stepped on the path towards destruction as he faced Luo Qingwu’s strike.

“Retreat at once!” The Grand Moon Swordmaster growled as the Shaoshang Swordmaster and the Shaoze Swordmaster moved backwards without hesitation. The Guanchong Swordmaster stared at the Guanchong Sword and he revealed his immortal soul avatar at once and let go of his human form. He channeled the power of the Guanchong Sword passage at once and infused it into the Guanchong Sword – he wanted to battle Luo Qingwu to the death.

However, Luo Qingwu’s purple sword radiance exploded at this very moment. The power of her sword mind was amplified once more, and that mystical and frightening power burst forth and directly forced out the Guanchong Swordmaster’s immortal soul avatar away from the Guanchong Sword.

This arc of purple word radiance slashed across the sky and directly cut through the immortal souls of the Guanchong Swordmaster, the Shaoshang Swordmaster and the Shaoze Swordmaster!

The Grand Moon Swordmaster was overcome with fright. The Guanchong Sword in his hands continued to crack, and a thin layer of ice began spreading over its surface as if it was on a path towards destruction.

At this moment, the green world formed by the Saintly Celestial Primordial Sword Formation quivered and a vast willpower finally turned more of its attention towards Luo Qingwu.

Subsequently, a single strand of white sword Qi roaming around inside the patches of green light shot out and stabbed towards Luo Qingwu.

That streak of white sword Qi appeared extremely weak, as if it was just a plain cloud and also appeared like a faint gust of wind.

However, the vast concept of power embodied within felt like it could tunnel through heaven and earth and contained the essences of all swordplay in the world. It felt like the sublimation after all swords returned into one and was the starting fountain of all swordplay if they were traced to the source.

It was the origin, and also the final destination.

It was Mount Shu’s highest order of power – the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi!

The sword mind was pure yet uncomplicated, it was simple yet terrifying. It seemed like it was going to overcome all challenges before it and pierce right through its opponent and all obstructions laid down before it were simply futile.

The streak of white sword Qi landed upon Luo Qingwu’s purple sword radiance. Her purple sword radiance quivered and appeared like it was entering a stasis, and the white sword Qi actually started to break through the purple sword radiance.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster felt a wave of relief as he thought to himself, “This girls’ swordplay is formidable, but it still can’t compare to her master’s Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi and can’t compare to our Saintly Celestial Sword Qi. Breaking her swordplay is just the beginning – the day will come when Mount Shu’s swordplay will emerge victorious over the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ swordplay, and reutn to the pinnacle of swordplay inside the Grand Celestial World!”

Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, Luo Qingwu’s stance suddenly changed.

She flicked her Xuanche Sword blade and it released a deep hum before she spun around in the sky and removed herself from her human form, displaying her immortal soul avatar once again.

Her sprawling Taiji Diagram radiated with sword radiance as it rotated gradually in the sky. The Taiji Diagram slowly straightened vertically and directly faced the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi and the Grand Moon Swordmaster.

A faint streak of light extended outwards from the center of the Taiji Diagram in between its rotations. It appeared lackadaisical, as if it was being squeezed out by some unnamed force, but it gave people a petrifying and sharp sensation.

The patch of light appeared formless and colorless. The only thing about it was that it was blindingly bright like a sword that was being gradually unsheathed.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster practiced swordplay his whole life. He would have been able to see through the essences of swordplay with one look, even for those outside of Mount Shu. However, he watched this sword extending from Luo Qingwu’s immortal soul avatar with an inexplicable sense of dread.

This was dissimilar to the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi and neither was it the same as the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi. It wasn’t ferocious and intimidating like the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi, yet it seemed to shake the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi at its very foundations.

The Saintly Celestial Sword Qi used the spiritual energy of the world as its edge, and all beings under the world as its blade. However, when faced with this sword, the entire Greater World around it seemed to tremble along and rendered the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi unable to garner the energies of the world.

Luo Qingwu’s calm voice came out from within the Taiji Diagram. “This sword is called the Original Spirit Sword of Extremity, and it’s the mantra obtained after my ascension to the immortal soul stage. Do correct my mistakes, dear seniors from the Mount Shu Sword Sect.”

The streak of sword radiance shot out from the center of the Taiji Diagram and transformed into a straight pillar of light as it came up against the incoming stream of Saintly Celestial Sword Qi.

The pale-white Saintly Celestial Sword Qi clashed with the sword radiance of Luo Qingwu’s Original Spirit Sword of Extremity in the sky, and the space around the contact point instantly began to contort.

The void around it didn’t shatter. However, the contortions and spiraling made it look like a whirlpool as it concentrated the spiritual energy around the area. It appeared like a deep abyss that could never be filled up.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster’s face turned black at once. “There’s another swordplay from the Celestial Sect of Wonders besides the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi that can match up against our Saintly Celestial Sword Qi?!”

That stream of Saintly Celestial Sword Qi was just small thread, and it was a stream that was separated from the Saintly Celestial Primordial Sword Formation in its combat against the Tiangang Swormaster. Even so, it was the Saintly Celestial Sword Qi after all and appeared like it could rip open the skies and the earth, and all beings in the world wouldn’t be able to stop its forward movement.

However, it was unable to push forward a single inch after clashing with Luo Qingwu’s Original Spirit Sword of Extremity.

The purple-robed young girl in her immortal soul avatar form had just reached the immortal soul stage, and the Original Spirit Sword of Extremity had literally just been devised.

The Grand Moon Swordmaster could clearly feel that this swordplay was newly formed and had the potential for development even though he didn’t know its essences and what it embodied. As Luo Qingwu’s level of mastery grew higher, and her understanding of swordplay and of the world became deeper, the Original Spirit Sword of Extremity’s strength was bound to become stronger and stronger.
