Chapter 641: Chapter 69 Blatant Discrimination Chapter 641: Chapter 69 Blatant Discrimination Ling Yunpo felt extremely irritated by this master ancestor who favored women over men.
Even though giving benefits to Senior Sister An is like giving benefits to me, what’s with this blatant discrimination?
I am but a bit more intelligent, a bit shrewder, a bit more agile, why must you look at me unfavorably?
Did smart people offend you or provoke you somehow?
An Zhisu stepped forward, cupped her fists in salute, and the Flying Smoke Sword and Harsh Cold Sword shot out simultaneously, taking up positions in the air.
“Hmm, Two-Handed Sword Control, not bad at all,” the old Daoist spoke gently, “Don’t be nervous, go ahead and give it a try.”
Ling Yunpo watched on with sour jealousy from the side.
An Zhisu formed the sword technique with her hands, and twin swords, one on the left and the other on the right, flanked and attacked the black-robed elder seated on the ground.
The old Daoist showed no reaction, but the purple Flying Sword in the air suddenly moved to the left and nimbly entangled the Harsh Cold Sword, then with a flourish of the sword, guided the momentum of the Harsh Cold Sword, using it to smash towards the Flying Smoke Sword.
Ling Yunpo watched in astonishment from the side; this technique of borrowing force, diverting energy, Universe-shifting was so ingenious that he didn’t know how to describe it and could only say he didn’t understand it at all.
“Ah Jing,” he hastily called in his mind, “hurry up and record this for me, I’ll need to watch it carefully later.
Qing Ping!
You keep an eye on it for me, break down the moves clearly, and later explain them to me in terms I can understand!”
Kunlun Mirror, Green Duckweed Sword: ……

Putting aside the internal mockery from one mirror and one sword, An Zhisu, after being played with a move of borrowing force by the immortal, remained calm, her right hand forming techniques to steady the Harsh Cold Sword, her left hand maneuvering the Flying Smoke Sword to dodge the attack of the Harsh Cold Sword, and once again attacking the black-robed Daoist.
“Good!” the old Daoist praised with authority, “Steady in the face of danger, you sure have the demeanor of a Sword Immortal!
Now, see how you handle this move!”
Ling Yunpo quickly turned his attention, wait a minute!
Which technique is this…?
He suddenly realized that this immortal old Daoist was extremely cunning; because his physical body was on the brink of death and he couldn’t move, he was using Divine Sense to control the Flying Sword, so outsiders could not judge his next tactical move from his sword techniques-this old Daoist wasn’t using any sword techniques at all!
The black-robed old Daoist remained unmoving as stone, and the purple Flying Sword immediately flew back to aid, easily blocking the Flying Smoke Sword.
“Why not use Daoist Magic?” the black-robed old Daoist suddenly asked.
“For a pure swordsmanship contest, how could I use Sword Dao Techniques?” An Zhisu asked, puzzled.
“You child, with your Innate Sword Heart, are far too naive,” the black-robed old Daoist laughed heartily, “Why stick so rigidly to conventions?
Sword Dao Techniques are inherently designed to complement swordsmanship.
If you treat them as common Daoist Magic, you’re missing the essence.
Now, watch closely!”
As he spoke, he controlled the purple Flying Sword to clash with the Flying Smoke Sword several times, and each time a strike was made, several specks of purple starfire burst out, targeting the Harsh Cold Sword coming from the side.
As a result, An Zhisu, with her dual-sword control, was unable to break through the defense of the black-robed old Daoist’s purple Flying Sword, unable to reach near him.
Ling Yunpo watched from the side with admiration, thinking so this was it; he had not expected that he, too, had fallen into a misconception before.
Looking at the combat style of the Shushan Cultivators, for the most part, it’s swordsmanship by itself, Daoist Magic by itself, clearly demarcated.
Like when I’m competing with the opposing side using a Flying Sword, after a while, I’d suddenly release Sword Dao Techniques to suppress the opponent.
In that moment, what’s the Flying Sword doing?
It’s acting as a “relay” driven by True Yuan, receiving True Yuan from the Sword Cultivator and then pouring it into the Array within the sword to activate the Daoist Magic.
For this reason, most of the time when the Flying Sword invoked its Sword Dao Techniques, there was no way to attack the enemy simultaneously; typically, one had to wait until the Daoist Magic had fully activated before continuing action.
However, the style of combat demonstrated by the black-robed elder Daoist was a different kind:
Swordsmanship as the primary, Sword Dao Techniques as the secondary.
Daoist Magic served swordsmanship and should not form a separate category.
If using Daoist Magic would disrupt the rhythm of swordsmanship, then one would not use those techniques, and attacking with swordsmanship must take priority…
Ling Yunpo had an epiphany as if a logjam had been broken, and enlightenment poured into him.
He saw An Zhisu struggling to attack from either side and suddenly stopped her Flying Sword, falling into a thoughtful trance.
“Your Senior Sister has realized it,” the voice of the black-robed elder Daoist sounded in Ling Yunpo’s ear, “What about you, boy?”
“Thank you, great-grandmaster,” Ling Yunpo respectfully said.
What he was thankful for went without saying.
“Hmph.” The black-robed elder Daoist did not appreciate his respectful attitude and said, “Come up here and test your swordsmanship!”
Ling Yunpo stepped forward, unleashing the Green Duckweed Sword, Thunder Punishment Sword, and Myriad Bamboos Sword all at once, three swords shooting forth simultaneously.
???G?.??
“Heh.” The black-robed elder Daoist sneered, “Controlling three swords at the same time?
Ostentatious but insubstantial.
Let’s see if you have the skill to back it up!”
Ling Yunpo was on the verge of spitting blood, thinking that no matter what he did, he’d be ridiculed, so he shot out all three swords at once, going all out on the offensive without defense.
He first activated the Green Duckweed Sword’s Sword Dao Technique “Green Mist Veil Over the Mountains,” for he had already seen clearly that the purple Flying Sword could release starfire, indicating that it was either of the Fire System or Metal System.
Using Green Mist Veil Over the Mountains to suppress non-Water System Daoist Magic was undoubtedly the best choice.
In the past, Ling Yunpo would certainly have stopped the Green Duckweed Sword’s attack to release the thick fog as quickly as possible.
But the elder Daoist had just enlightened him not to allow the use of Daoist Magic to affect the attacking rhythm, or else it would create an opening.
Thus, he only manipulated the Green Duckweed Sword to continue its rapid assault on the elder Daoist, with the thick fog spraying from the hilt of the sword, trailing behind like the jet stream of a fighter jet.
“Oh, a Water System Forbidden Technique?” The black-robed elder Daoist disdainfully said, “The Daoist Magic is not bad, but your tactical intent is too obvious; countering it is as easy as turning one’s hand.”
The purple Flying Sword’s blade too began to emit a large amount of starfire.
The two swords clashed and entwined with one another, with copious starfire falling into the fog, instantly stirring it into a chaotic rolling mass as if boiling water was frothing.
Ling Yunpo, knowing that Green Mist Veil Over the Mountains was breached, expressionlessly maneuvered the Green Duckweed Sword to entangle the purple Flying Sword, while the Myriad Bamboos Sword cooperated in flanking the purple Flying Sword, and the Thunder Punishment Sword circled to the rear to attack the black-robed elder Daoist.
As expected, the purple Flying Sword turned to counter, but was just entangled by the Myriad Bamboos Sword; a great deal of Wood System Sword Qi exploded, completely sealing off the purple Flying Sword’s path of retreat.
Seizing the opportunity, the Thunder Punishment Sword shot out lightning, attacking the black-robed elder Daoist while also angling off to initiate another two-front attack.
“What a vicious-minded brat!” the black-robed elder Daoist cursed angrily, “You dare to use three swords to bully an old man with a single sword, eh?”
“Facing an immortal in battle, if I don’t take full advantage of my strengths, wouldn’t I be disrespecting the fight?” Ling Yunpo coldly retorted, “Great-grandmaster, my Myriad Bamboos Sword can split into countless Sword Qi, with one sword equivalent to the power of two or three.
If you only have a single sword to counter, you might as well concede a draw early…
what the fuck!”
Suddenly, a white Flying Sword sprang out next to the black-robed elder Daoist, swiftly blocking the Thunder Punishment Sword.
“Facing a sly fox like you, there’s no need for me to hold back!” The black-robed elder Daoist coldly stated as Ling Yunpo watched dumbfounded, “You control three swords; I too will control two swords, thus giving you the advantage of one sword!
Use all your tricks, just don’t lose too miserably later on!”
