Big Sis continued to stare at Liu Song, and Lu Yin hurriedly stepped forward to block her. "Elder Song, would you be able to guide this junior in sword techniques?"
Liu Song was confused. "Lu Xiaoxuan doesn't like sword techniques, but you do. Interesting. Unfortunately, I can't guide you with your current strength."
Lu Yin replied, "I was able to fight against a Progenitor because I relied on external items and not my own strength. My true strength cannot compare to Elder Song's, and I would like to improve my sword techniques, especially the Thirteen Swords."
"The Thirteen Swords?"
Liu Du was stunned.
Liu Lu, Liu Que, and a few other elders of the Liu family had arrived as well, including Liu Yiyi.
When Liu Song appeared, they all gathered around him, especially when they heard about the Thirteen Swords.
This was exactly what Lu Yin wanted. He glanced at Liu Yiyi and continued, "I obtained the Thirteen Swords from the Sword Stele, and I was lucky enough to learn it. I want to create the Fourteenth Sword, but my talent is limited. It would be best if I could receive some guidance from Elder Song."
"The Thirteen Swords were lost in the Abandoned Lands a long time ago. Are you from there?"
Liu Que asked from a distance.
Many members of the Liu family looked on in confusion.
Zhang Dingtian was there as well, and he frowned. Was this person from the Fifth Mainland?
"Quiet!" Liu Du barked as he scanned his surroundings. "Back off."
The crowd slowly retreated. Liu Du's prestige in the Liu family was very high, just like how Wang Zhengzhi was in the Wang family. Long Ke and Bai Teng could not compare to him, and even Liu Yiyi had to respect him.
Liu Song was astonished. "You want to create the Fourteenth Sword?
Do you already have an idea? "
Lu Yin nodded. "A little. I've created a prototype, but it seems to have gone astray. That's why I wanted to ask Elder Song for guidance. If you can help me create the Fourteenth Sword, then I'm willing to leave the Thirteen Swords to the Liu family."
Many members of the Liu family were excited and looked on expectantly.
Liu Hao arrived. The Thirteen Swords?
Only the Fifth Mainland had the Thirteen Swords, and there were only a few people who knew them. After Lu Yin had released him, he had gone to the Sword Sect to interact with Liu Tianmu, but he had not been able to learn the Thirteen Swords. How did this person know them?
He looked at Lu Yin's back, but it seemed familiar. Could it be him?
The Thirteen Swords was very attractive to the Liu Family, but it did not mean that it surpassed all the sword arts of the Liu Family. In the eyes of the Liu Family, there was no sword art that was absolutely invincible. They cared about the Thirteen Swords because they cared about all the sword arts, not just the Thirteen Swords.
Liu Song calmly looked at Lu Yin. "Alright, if that's the case, then display all of your sword techniques. I'll do my best to help you complete the Fourteenth Sword."
"Thank you, Elder Song," Lu Yin said. He then raised his hand and transformed his astral source into a sword that transformed into Liu Huang's personal sword. The Fourteenth Sword that Lu Yin was referring to was naturally Liu Huang's sword. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Huang might have taken the wrong path. It would be good if Elder Song could give him some pointers.
Although this was not his main goal.
In the surroundings, the cultivators of the Liu Family watched closely. How many years had it been since Elder Song used his sword? Now that he finally did so, how could they let it go?
More and more members of the Liu family gathered.
Liu Hao stared at Lu Yin's back. It was too similar, and it was definitely him. There were only a few people in the Fifth Mainland who knew the Thirteen Swords, so it was definitely Lu Yin. He had actually come here, and this region of space was about to fall into chaos again.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lu Yin made the first move.
This was the Liu family, and his opponent was Liu Song, a Half-Ancestor. If Liu Song made the first move, others would think that Lu Yin was being too arrogant.
Liu Song just stood there like a hunchbacked old man. He did not look like a swordsman at all.
Lu Yin did not stand on ceremony and raised his hand.
This was the First Sword, which was the most basic of the Thirteen Swords. Every subsequent sword was basically an extension of the First Sword.
When the First Sword of the Thirteen Swords was unleashed, the eyes of the surrounding Liu family cultivators lit up, especially those who were Enlighters. This sword had inspired them.
Liu Song casually raised his hand and tapped out with his index finger, causing a thump to ring out.
There were many people who could use finger force to break through sword techniques, and Lu Yin often used finger force to break through his enemies' battle techniques. However, Liu Song's finger was not finger force, but rather a sword technique. He had used his finger in place of a sword, and even though it was clearly a finger, the sound of a sword striking out could be heard. In the direction that his index finger moved, the void was directly sliced apart, forming the shape of a sword.
"Sword Finger Technique! I never thought that Elder Song would directly use the Sword Finger Technique. Is this person making Elder Song take him so seriously?"
Someone exclaimed.
Liu Hao was bitter, but it was more than just serious. If they were not competing purely in terms of sword techniques, then no one in the entire Liu family would be a match for this person other than the ancestor. He looked at the Hellwyrm that was dozing off on Lu Yin's shoulder. That should be the real thing.
Many people in the Astral Tree Realm had bought this type of pet, and it was said to be popular in the Fifth Mainland. However, this person's pet was the real deal. It was a Progenitor.
There was a soft thump as the blades clashed once more. Lu Yin had directly used the Fourth Sword, causing the space around him to ripple as he changed his own forcefield and the environment around him, creating the Fourth Sword's unique Sword Domain. Liu Song tapped out with his finger, and his fingertip trembled as multiple sword edges appeared, tearing through the Fourth Sword and stabbing towards Lu Yin's forehead.
Lu Yin was relying on his fourth Origin Tribulation Stage cultivation, while Liu Song did not use the power of a Progenitor. Both of them were using the power of a fourth Origin Tribulation Stage cultivator.
The Fourth Sword was completely defeated.
Lu Yin tilted his head and avoided the sword edges. He exclaimed, "Many people have broken through the Thirteen Swords, but you're the first to do so with just your sword techniques alone."
Liu Song laughed. "It's just the Fourth Sword. The true power of the Thirteen Swords lies in the final sword. You can use it as much as you want. I heard that you used the Thirteenth Sword to injure Xia Ziheng in Shenwu Plane. I'm looking forward to it."
Lu Yin's lips curled up as he stared at Liu Song. The Twelfth Sword, Profound Intent.
He had skipped the middle sword technique, which shocked many of the Liu family members. The power of this sword was far greater than the previous four swords.
Liu Song's eyes lit up. "Not bad. With this sword technique, even an Enlighter can injure an Emissary. This is the true power of the Thirteen Swords. Unfortunately, it's still not enough." He clenched his fingers together and suddenly moved forward, pressing down with his palm.
Lu Yin looked up. It was clearly a palm, but what he saw were five swords that were sharp enough to pierce through anything.
In the distance, Big Sis raised her brows. Why did this sword technique seem so familiar?
She had seen it before, but where had she seen it?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this old man was someone she knew.
Lu Yin dodged to the side, and Liu Song's palm descended. The five swords swept out, and Lu Yin grabbed one of them. The blade was vertical, and a vague sense of danger appeared in Lu Yin's mind. He saw a strange diagram form beside him, and he heard someone exclaim, "Limitless Sword Technique!"
Was this another sword technique?
Lu Yin's domain was constantly enveloping the area, and he could see that Liu Song no longer had that stooped appearance.
This was clearly a sword that had been sealed away for many years, and it was now baring its fangs at Lu Yin.
The Limitless Sword Technique descended beside him, and Lu Yin stared at the strange diagram without moving. When he saw the diagram descend, Liu Song was shocked. "Get out of the way."
Lu Yin attacked. There was no earth-shattering destructive power, nor was there any shocking battle technique. It was just a very ordinary attack, but it caused the Limitless Sword Technique to stagnate, and the diagram to stop moving.
Liu Du was shocked. How was this possible?
Even further away, Liu Yiyi's eyes widened. Lu Yin had actually broken through Elder Song's Limitless Sword Technique?
At this moment, Liu Song was the most shocked. The Limitless Sword Technique was his signature technique, and very few people could break through it. Only his ancestor had been able to do so. Who else in the entire Astral Tree Domain could break through his Limitless Sword Technique?
This was the first time.
"You?"
Liu Song looked at Lu Yin with a puzzled expression. This was the first time he had lost his composure.
Lu Yin's hand trembled as he gripped the sword hilt. It wasn't because he was afraid, but because he was withstanding an unimaginable amount of force. The so-called Limitless Sword Technique was not just a simple sword technique; it was more like a fixed technique formed from sword techniques. It was a technique that could condense the void and cut through everything. This was the Limitless Sword Technique.
He had been able to see through it because he had comprehended the Myriad Weapons Technique when he had viewed the Sword Stele.
Dozens of years ago, he had viewed the sword stele as Long Qi and comprehended the method to decipher ten thousand weapons. This allowed him to undergo a great transformation in the way of weapons. Not only could he use the Gou Lian, but he could also control the way of the sword, the way of the saber, and even more complicated weapons as he wished.
This was a gift from Wu Tian.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to see through the Limitless Sword Technique.
"Senior, take this. The Thirteenth Sword." Lu Yin sheathed his sword and disappeared. When he reappeared, his sword was already less than a hundred meters away from Liu Song.
No one had been able to clearly see when the sword had been slashed out; only those who understood the Thirteenth Sword knew what had happened.
A gust of wind blew past, and Liu Song slowly raised his head, "A sword with emotions. No wonder, no wonder …" A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Elder Song."
"Elder Song." The rest of the Liu family's disciples were worried.
Liu Song raised a hand to silence them and looked at Lu Yin with admiration, "You're willing to leave this sword technique to my Liu family?"
Lu Yin raised his sword again and pointed it at Liu Song.
Many of the Liu family's disciples were furious.
Liu Du was astonished; when had Lu Xiaoxuan become so arrogant?
"As long as Elder Song can help me perfect the Fourteenth Sword, I don't mind leaving it to the Liu family. There is no such thing as an invincible sword technique in this world, only an invincible person."
Liu Song laughed, "An invincible person? Do you think you can achieve that?"
"Of course, Elder Song, please enlighten me. This is the Fourteenth Sword!" Lu Yin shouted and raised his hand, slashing out.
Liu Song looked up and watched the sword slowly descend, but there was no reaction.
Everyone stared at Liu Song.
Liu Du even took a few steps forward, "Elder Song?"
Sometimes, the more there was no reaction, the more abnormal it was. They were worried that Lu Yin's attack would be too powerful and heavily injure Elder Song.
However, Elder Song didn't react. He looked at Lu Yin and shook his head helplessly, "So that's how it is. Sorry, I can't perfect it for you at the moment."
Lu Yin frowned; how could there be no reaction? The Fourteenth Sword had come from Emperor Liu, and it was called the Sword of Bitterness. It was actually the same as the Thirteenth Sword, the Emotional Sword, but one drew upon emotions while the other drew upon bitterness. That was why he had said that the Fourteenth Sword had gone astray and wasn't the true Fourteenth Sword.
Now that the Thirteenth Sword had injured Liu Song, why was there no reaction from the Fourteenth Sword?
It sounded like he had understood the Fourteenth Sword, but why wasn't he injured?
Impossible.
