Chapter 161: Your Brain is Quite the Enlightened One
Chapter 161: Your Brain is Quite the Enlightened One
Su Chen and Taiwu Zhenren walked along the defensive line.
Upon spotting some demon tracks, Su Chen informed Taiwu Zhenren.
Especially for areas that might face large-scale demon assaults, Su Chen emphasized their importance to Taiwu Zhenren.
Su Chen didn't do this to showcase his abilities.
The Yunyang Sect's frontlines had been stable for several days. After suffering losses, the demons were temporarily regrouping.
However, these demons would likely launch another assault, and it might be even larger than the previous one.
If the Yunyang Sect could repel this wave of demons, it would send a strong message to the demons in the wilderness.
Perhaps due to the gathering beast tide in the wilderness, the demons might not stop attacking because of their large numbers.
But they would never be as reckless as before.
Taiwu Zhenren, standing beside Su Chen, carefully noted all the locations he mentioned.
Later, when he had some free time, he would personally deliver the message.
As they walked along the outskirts, they encountered three Yunyang Sect disciples on a scouting mission.
Upon seeing Taiwu Zhenren, the three disciples immediately approached and greeted him.
Taiwu Zhenren nodded and, without saying more, let them leave.
After they left, one of the disciples felt something was amiss.
"That young man beside the Sect Leader, his silhouette seems so familiar. Do I know him?"
"Do you know him?"
"I don't recognize his face, but his silhouette seems familiar. Never mind."
The three disciples didn't think much of it and continued their scouting mission.
After walking for a while, Taiwu Zhenren found an open area to rest.
"By the way, Chen Xiaoyou, you have exceptional talent in dealing with demons. I haven't seen your cultivation skills yet.
You've contributed greatly to the Yunyang Sect. If you don't mind, I can offer you some cultivation advice."
Taiwu Zhenren, an experienced and cunning elder, had a deeper meaning behind these words.
The Falcon Sect was a relatively small sect, not particularly strong, and certainly not as powerful as the Yunyang Sect.
By offering advice, Taiwu Zhenren wanted Su Chen to understand that the Yunyang Sect was far superior to the Falcon Sect.
The techniques Su Chen learned from the Falcon Sect couldn't compare to the Yunyang Sect's cultivation techniques.
Being guided by a Transcendent Realm expert like Taiwu Zhenren was an opportunity Su Chen wouldn't pass up.
Moreover, Taiwu Zhenren's words made sense; it was only natural to receive some rewards for helping the Yunyang Sect defend against demons.
As they spoke, Su Chen drew his longsword from its sheath, revealing its superior quality.
The cold, sharp blade seemed to speak of its sharpness to onlookers.
Upon seeing this superior longsword, Taiwu Zhenren's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
In Taiwu Zhenren's eyes, Su Chen's possession of such a weapon indicated the high regard he received in the Falcon Sect.
Few disciples from minor sects could wield such a supreme-grade weapon.
Seeing Su Chen prepare to demonstrate his sword techniques, Taiwu Zhenren picked up a branch from the side.
"It's boring to spar alone. Let's exchange a few moves, young friend.
During our exchange, I'll be able to notice any issues you might have.
Go all out; you needn't hold back."
Without Taiwu Zhenren's last sentence, Su Chen wouldn't have any concerns.
Taiwu Zhenren was a Transcendent Realm expert, and Su Chen's strength was far inferior to his.
It would be absurd for Su Chen to worry about facing Taiwu Zhenren.
The wilderness was quiet, likely because Taiwu Zhenren's presence deterred nearby demons from approaching.
In an instant, Su Chen charged forward with his sword.
Su Chen was already an expert in the Lin Family Swordsmanship, and his blade sliced through the air, emitting strands of sword energy.
In the Seventh Stage Heart Valley Intermediate, the full strength was unleashed without any reservations.
Su Chen wanted to receive guidance from Taiwu Zhenren, so he concealed his true abilities.
But from the very first move, Taiwu Zhenren was a little surprised.
In the Seventh Stage Heart Valley Intermediate.
Su Chen appeared younger, but his strength exceeded Taiwu Zhenren's expectations.
Taiwu Zhenren couldn't tell Su Chen's exact age, but he was definitely not over twenty-five years old.
At this age, possessing the strength of the Seventh Stage Intermediate, one could already become a direct disciple in the Yunyang Sect.
Facing Su Chen's longsword attack, Taiwu Zhenren countered with a branch in his hand.
The gap in strength was too great, and the advantage of the weapon became less noticeable.
Even if Su Chen used a Supreme-grade weapon, it would likely be blocked by this branch.
After the first move, Su Chen's expression became more serious.
[Daoist] Destiny, [Qi Gatherer] Destiny, [Indomitable Will] Destiny were all activated.
The longsword techniques were executed continuously, seemingly without the need for a single breath.
Taiwu Zhenren, as a Transcendent Realm cultivator, naturally had no issues responding.
But in his heart, he was increasingly shocked.
He was amazed by Su Chen's cultivation foundation; his relentless attacks were fierce and relentless.
This move seemed even stronger than the previous one.
After dozens of attacks, Taiwu Zhenren felt he had seen through Su Chen's techniques, and the branch in his hand began to change its moves.
Using the opponent's force against them, the branch twisted and turned the situation around.
The next moment, Su Chen also changed his technique at that instant.
The longsword seemed to become sinuous, twisting towards Taiwu Zhenren.
The sudden change in technique almost embarrassed Taiwu Zhenren.
Indeed, the speed and movement of a Transcendent Realm cultivator were far superior to that of a Seventh Stage cultivator.
Taiwu Zhenren easily avoided this move with his body manipulation techniques.
As the distance between them widened, Taiwu Zhenren felt himself becoming more serious unconsciously.
He was actually feeling pressured when facing a young Seventh Stage Intermediate cultivator.
"You little rascal, that relentless attack just now wasn't meant to suppress me.
It was a feint, waiting for me to fall into your trap.
How did your mind work so brilliantly?"
Taiwu Zhenren smiled and scolded.
In the following moves, he became more serious.
Su Chen also knew he had no chance of winning against Taiwu Zhenren.
Especially after his feint was seen through, there was even less hope.
Su Chen decided to follow his own cultivation technique and let Taiwu Zhenren offer guidance.
After a round of sparring, Su Chen took a few breaths and quickly recovered.
Taiwu Zhenren, standing beside him, couldn't help but ask.
"After attacking like that, don't you feel tired, kid? Just a few breaths and you're recovered?"
As a Transcendent Realm cultivator, he felt today's sparring had consumed a lot of his energy.
At this moment, Su Chen seemed to have recovered after just a few breaths.
Hearing Taiwu Zhenren's words, Su Chen didn't know how to respond.
His foundation was relatively stable, and the tempering of the 'Xuan Dao Xin Jue' indeed made his physique stronger than many others.
Combined with the Indomitable Will Destiny, his resilience was naturally beyond that of his peers.
Taiwu Zhenren looked at the branch in his hand, which had broken several times, leaving only a small segment.
Su Chen's strength exceeded his expectations.
His mind constantly pondered how to belittle the Falcon Sect and elevate the Yunyang Sect to convince Su Chen to consider joining the Yunyang Sect.
Now it seemed that the Falcon Sect's treatment of Su Chen was truly exceptional.
