Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 137 – True Dragon Divine Power

In the air, fragments of sword weapons fell like raindrops, hitting the ground with a crisp metallic sound. Su Yun stood in the midst of this rain of sword fragments, with a smile that was neither a smile nor a cry.

The sword fragments fell around him, but were gently pushed away by Huang Zhong.

Wen Lifang's face changed slightly as he turned to Zuo Songyan and said, "Left Chief, this Su scholar seems to have just entered the school yesterday. He hasn't had a chance to study the official school of your Wenchang Academy. He's quite talented, I wonder where he learned it from?"

Zuo Songyan laughed heartily, stroking his beard with a mysterious air, thinking to himself, "How would I know?"

Su Yun looked up at the sky, tears streaming down his cheeks.

For a long time, the mark of the immortal sword had been a thorn in his heart, and the scenes of the immortal sword killing various divine beings had only made his condition worse.

So far, he had seen fifteen divine beings die under the immortal sword in his immortal chart, including dragons, apes, unicorns, and other creatures that covered all aspects of his martial arts, except for the Sun and Moon Overlapping Wall he learned from Bai Yuelou.

And his eyes were also related to the coming of the immortal sword. When he was seven years old, he only glanced at it and his eyes went blind!

Although he had used the immortal sword to fight strong enemies, in his heart, the immortal sword was his greatest enemy!

And now, he had finally overcome his fear of the immortal sword, and had finally mastered his fear, turning it into a sword in his hand!

The mark of the immortal sword in his eyes finally disappeared!

In his spiritual world, Ying Ying looked up at the immortal sword floating in the spiritual world, feeling pleased and said, "You have finally mastered the sword technique."

Su Yun was both excited and calm, whispering, "It took me seven years to master the sword technique. I just don't know why I can't explain what sword technique is..."

Ying Ying came to the immortal sword and walked on it, saying, "There are many people in this world who talk a lot but are useless when it comes to action. If you can explain it, your sword technique will drop a grade, only when you can't explain it can you achieve the highest level of swordsmanship."

Su Yun thought for a moment and found it to be true, saying, "Ying Ying, after your memory seal was broken, you awakened your past memories. You will soar to great heights in the future. I can't imagine your achievements."

The book monster Ying Ying was stunned and thought of her past memories, feeling a sense of inexplicable fear.

The past was unknown to her, like a dark house, no one knew what was inside, whether it was good or bad. But whether good or bad, she had to face it!

The Sword Academy of the Jiuyuan Academy was in an uproar, and many scholars came forward to check the sword weapons in the sword forest. Almost all of the thousands of sword weapons were broken, except for the one in Su Yun's hand which was intact!

The sword forest and the hidden sword array here were completely scrapped!

Although the sword weapons here were not as good as real ones and were only part of the sword array, their power was relatively single, but they were still a treasure of the Sword Academy.

It would probably take another hundred years to create another sword forest.

Wen Xiutao's eyes fell on Su Yun, frowning slightly. He still couldn't see any swordsmanship from Su Yun.Even though Su Yun had just broken through the ninth sword formation of the Sword Forest with unparalleled swordsmanship, he still couldn't see any swordsmanship skills in him!

In his eyes, Su Yun was still a layman who knew nothing about swordsmanship.

But why was the power of Su Yun's sword just now so terrifying that it could even destroy the Sword Forest?

This was something he couldn't understand.

"He should have only practiced one swordsmanship move, but that one move is so powerful that it can make the Sword Forest think he deserves the ninth sword formation."

Wen Xiutao looked at Su Yun eagerly, "A person who knows nothing about swordsmanship can learn this move and destroy the ninth sword formation, destroy the Sword Forest! If it were me who learned this move, how terrifying would its power be?"

Su Yun let go of the hilt of his sword and took a step forward, loudly proclaiming, "Wen Chang Academy's Master Brother, here to pay respects to the scholars of Jiuyuan Academy's Sword Dao Institute!"

The scholars of Jiuyuan Academy's Sword Dao Institute around him all looked at him and each took a step forward, wanting to challenge him but not daring to make a move.

Su Yun passed by Wen Xiutao, who hesitated for a moment, clenched his fist, then opened it again, hesitating.

He really wanted to challenge Su Yun and defeat him, but the power of Su Yun's sword made him somewhat afraid.

Su Yun walked forward on his own, heading towards the central hall of the Sword Dao Institute and climbing the steps to the front of the hall.

Looking up, Su Yun saw a couplet hanging on the pillar of the main hall of the Sword Dao Institute.

"Come like thunder, quell your anger; leave like the clear light on the river. Is this talking about swords? It's really well said. To wield a sword like thunder, with the power of thunder, but without the sound of thunder, to sheathe the sword like the moonlight on the river, with sparkling ripples."

Su Yun praised repeatedly, then turned around and looked at the many scholars of the Sword Dao Institute who followed him, bowing respectfully and saying, "Gentlemen, I have come to the Sword Dao Institute and cannot display my swordsmanship in front of you, so today I can only use my divine power to learn from your swordsmanship."

He looked around, smiling, "Gentlemen, do you want to be oppressed by me and not dare to resist?"

The scholars of the Sword Dao Institute below suddenly felt a surge of blood rushing up, this kind of humiliation almost made them unable to bear it!

A spiritual scholar of the Sword Dao Institute rushed up to the main hall with one step, drew his sword without saying a word, and shouted loudly, "I..."

"Clang!"

The bell rang, and before the spiritual scholar's sword move could be delivered, he flew backwards and landed with a bang on the roof of the opposite hall.

Su Yun apologized, "I forgot to tell you all that I have already cultivated the first heavenly realm, the Qingxu Realm, and my cultivation may be a bit high."

As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual scholars below the main hall of the Sword Dao Institute shouted, and large and small heavenly realms appeared, some with one, some with two, and even three or four, five or six heavenly realms!

Those who only had one heavenly realm were a minority!

Even those who had cultivated the six major heavenly realms were more than those who had only cultivated one!

Su Yun looked down and saw that many scholars of the Sword Dao Institute were full of killing intent, and the spirits of these spiritual scholars were sitting in the various heavenly realms, which was very spectacular.

"Most of them are scholars who have just entered Jiuyuan Academy, right? It's strange, why doesn't our Ge Wu Institute have the scholars from the previous few sessions?"

Su Yun was very puzzled and asked loudly, "You have more heavenly realms than me, why is your cultivation still so weak?"

"Arrogant!"Under the main hall, the scholars were filled with righteous indignation. Suddenly, a spiritual master who had cultivated six major heavenly realms stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "I, Tian Shufang, have come to learn from you!"

Clang!

Sword light shone as Tian Shufang's surroundings were filled with sword light. With a light shake of the sword tips, numerous flying swords shot out, attacking Su Yun from all directions like hundreds of people wielding swords.

His swordsmanship was extremely exquisite, and a burst of cheers erupted from the audience. Just then, Su Yun raised his hand, took off the yellow bell, and rotated it with his right arm.

"Bang!"

All the flying swords shattered, and even the surrounding air trembled violently. Tian Shufang was thrown back by the terrifying power.

The people below rushed over and dug Tian Shufang out of the wall, checking his breathing and exclaiming, "Senior Brother Tian is still alive! Quickly get the scholars from the Medical Academy to save him!"

The scholars from the Sword Academy turned their heads and looked at Su Yun on the stage.

Su Yun frowned slightly, and in his spiritual realm, Ying Ying was also frowning. She flew around his spiritual body in his first heavenly realm and said, "No, this won't do! These scholars are too weak to correct the size of your spiritual power. Their strength needs to be stronger to make it easier to correct!"

Su Yun furrowed his brows and said to the scholars of the Sword Academy below, "Are you all so weak?"

Two scholars who had cultivated to the sixth heavenly realm were furious and jumped up, shouting, "You scum from the Wen Chang Academy, die!"

They almost jumped up at the same time, but when they saw each other, they knew they had broken the rules. Su Yun had come to challenge them, and if it was known that the two of them had surrounded Su Yun, it would definitely be a disgrace to the Nine Original Academies. But it was too late for them to retreat.

The two spiritual masters' eyes flickered with a bright light, and they attacked at the same time, swords filling the sky. They thought, "Since we're already here, let's pretend we don't know and attack at the same time. As long as we defeat the villains from the Wen Chang Academy, we can push off not seeing each other!"

"Bang!" "Bang!"

After two loud bell sounds, the scholars below turned their heads and saw the two senior brothers being thrown back by the bell sounds. The two bell sounds broke through the second large hall, and the two spiritual masters hit the wall of the third large hall one after the other, pierced by broken swords that had turned into qi and blood.

"It still won't work."

Ying Ying sat on Su Yun's spiritual body's shoulder, swinging her feet and saying, "They're too weak. Not only can they not improve your combat skills, but they can't even perfect your yellow bell spiritual power."

Su Yun came to the front of the stage and looked down at the scholars of the Sword Academy, disappointedly saying, "Don't you have any stronger senior brothers in the Sword Academy of the Nine Original Academies? Is the Sword Academy of the Nine Original Academies just a name?"

He shook his head and prepared to step down.

"Big Senior Brother!"

Many scholars looked at Wen Xiutao, who hesitated for a moment before stepping forward. Su Yun stopped and looked at him expectantly. "You are the big senior brother of the Sword Academy of the Nine Original Academies?"

Wen Xiutao said in a deep voice, "Yes, I am Wen..."Before he could introduce himself, Su Yun's ears twitched, his face changing slightly as he spoke kindly, "On August 7th last year, did Senior Brother Wen go to the Tianmen Ghost Market?"

Wen Xiutao was stunned and said, "I have been to the Tianmen Ghost Market, but you..."

Su Yun took out a stick of incense from his sleeve, activated his blood energy to turn it into flames, lit it, and bowed to the sky before inserting it into the stone steps under his feet. His face became even kinder as he said, "I was also in the Tianmen Ghost Market that night. I may have seen you. Do you know who else went to the Ghost Market with you that night?"

He lit another stick of incense and handed it to Wen Xiutao.

Zuo Songyan and Wen Lifang stood outside the Sword Academy, suddenly feeling tense at his words. "The envoy really came to investigate the case! But what is the connection between the Tianmen Ghost Market on August 7th last year and the current case?"

Wen Xiutao threw the incense aside and said, "That time, my mother, Wen Pushe, led several scholars from major families into the Tianmen Ghost Market to gain some treasures... Who are you? Were you also in the Tianmen Ghost Market at that time?"

"Wen Pushe led several scholars from major families into the Ghost Market?"

Su Yun turned his head and looked at Wen Lifang outside the Sword Academy with a smile on his face, saying, "The next day, Yang Sheng found you, didn't he?"

Wen Lifang's gaze coincidentally swept over him, and their eyes met. The woman frowned slightly, with flashes of images in her mind, suddenly feeling confused. "I seem to have seen him before... His face is somewhat familiar! Wait, wait, I must have seen him somewhere..."

Wen Xiutao said, "Do you know Yang Sheng? He's a very interesting person, but I haven't seen him in a long time."

Su Yun suddenly raised his voice, "Wen Pushe, I don't need swordsmanship, I only use divine abilities to gamble with Senior Brother Wen. If Senior Brother Wen can beat me, I will teach the Wen family my swordsmanship. What do you think?"

Wen Xiutao's eyes lit up as he said in a deep voice, "Are you serious?"

Su Yun's gaze still fell on Wen Lifang, and his voice became extremely cold, "I am serious. However, you can't win me with the swordsmanship of the Wen Chang Study Palace, unless you use the true dragon divine ability."

Wen Xiutao's heart trembled, "How do you know that the Wen family has the true dragon divine ability?"

Su Yun's eyes were full of killing intent, his gaze shifting away from Wen Lifang and onto him.
