228: The Egret Island is divided by two rivers, and the sword falls in a storm. What is the origin of the Supreme Sword Canon?

Chapter 228: White Egret Isle Divides the Two Rivers, Sword Falls Startling Wind and Rain, The Origin of the Taishang Sword Canon?

Above the arena.

Around Yan Hong, in an instant, green light surged.

The dense green energy emitted by the Green Spirit Stone swept towards Lu Xueqi like countless Sword Qi.

Wherever the green energy passed, the stone slabs of the arena were actually corroded with fine lines, showing its terrifying power.

The crowd below couldn't help but let out a low cry, sweating for Lu Xueqi.

However, Lu Xueqi still looked composed. Facing the oncoming green energy, she spun up lightly, her clothes fluttering like a banished immortal.

The hum of the tianya sword echoed around.

At the same time, streams of Sword Qi peeled off from the sword body, transforming into translucent green lotuses.

Immediately, the green lotuses, carrying a biting cold aura, plunged straight into the green energy, like a giant rock thrown into a lake, stirring up a thousand waves.

Boom, boom, boom...

A series of roars sounded, as the green energy and green lotuses collided and tore at each other.

For a time, the light on the arena trembled, and debris flew.

Although the green energy unleashed by Yan Hong using the Green Spirit Stone came fiercely, it had no way to break through Lu Xueqi's sword Moves.

Seeing this, Yan Hong's eyebrows stood on end, and she shouted angrily, "Again!"

She instantly poured all her strength into urging the Green Spirit Stone, and more green energy surged out wildly, attempting to crush the green lotuses.

"White Egret Isle divides the two rivers, floating clouds wander with the traveler's intent, sword falls startling wind and rain..."

At this moment, Lu Xueqi chanted softly, while continuously wielding the tianya sword in her hand.

Green lotuses bloomed one after another, instantly forming a dazzling sea of sword flowers.

Each green lotus contained Lu Xueqi's pure Spirit Energy, and the icy cold Sword Qi overflowed, causing the surrounding temperature to drop sharply. Yan Hong only felt the chill invading her body, making her hands and feet somewhat uncontrollable.

Yan Hong's eyes were filled with shock.

"What kind of sword technique is Lu Xueqi using?"

"How can it be so strong?"

"And why have I never heard of it before?"

"Taishang Sword Canon, Green Lotus Sword Song?!"

Yan Hong's eyes were full of shock.

Although she had already fallen into a disadvantage with just one Move, she still gritted her teeth and refused to admit defeat.

"I won't lose!"

Yan Hong shouted unwillingly, and then directly injected all her magic power into the Green Spirit Stone.

Buzz!

Instantly, the Green Spirit Stone let out a soft hum, and the green energy around Yan Hong became even thicker, also mixed with streaks of flame.

It seemed to want to resist the cold with the heat of fire.

Lu Xueqi's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. Seizing the opportunity, she gathered strength and swung the tianya sword.

A giant Sword Qi green lotus suddenly formed.

Immediately, this giant Sword Qi green lotus, like a comet falling to the ground, broke through the layers of green energy obstruction and crashed heavily into Yan Hong.

Yan Hong felt a force like a mountain and a sea assaulting her. Her body felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer, and she flew backward uncontrollably, falling heavily below the arena.

The Green Spirit Stone also dimmed in light, rolled to the side, and fell silent.

Lu Xueqi's expression remained cold and aloof. She looked at Yan Hong who was lying on the ground, without any hint of pride for having defeated her.

She just said lightly, "You lost."

Her voice was exceptionally cold, yet clear and resonant.

It was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves among the Qingyun Sect Disciples below the stage.

"She won! Junior Sister Lu won!"

Someone, they didn't know who, was the first to shout at the top of their lungs. That voice was instantly ignited, turning into a roaring cheer.

"Senior Sister Lu is mighty!"

"Just now, Yan Hong from Incense Valley was so arrogant, but in the end, she couldn't even last a single round against Junior Sister Lu. Let her be arrogant now!"

However, in this atmosphere of interwoven cheers and discussions, the topic of conversation unknowingly shifted from this exhilarating victory to the mysterious and unfathomable Taishang Sword Canon.

"You guys say, which Senior expert created this Taishang Sword Canon?"

"Junior Sister Lu, relying on the Moves within it, first defeated Junior Sister Ling'er, then defeated Senior Brother Qi Hao, and now even Yan Hong, one of the twin talents of Incense Valley, was defeated with a single Move.

"How strong must this cultivation method be!"

A young Disciple, his face full of curiosity, scanned the faces of his fellow Disciples around him, hoping someone could give an answer.

Unfortunately, no one could give them an answer.

Some speculated it was an ancient sword technique, some guessed it was left behind by a peerless expert and accidentally obtained by Lu Xueqi, the guesses becoming more and more fantastical.

"An ancient sword technique? Left behind by a peerless expert?"

Only Wen Min, who was nearby, smiled foolishly, her eyes full of pride.

"If you knew that this Taishang Sword Canon, like the Dragon God Skill, was created by Junior Brother... Tsk tsk, it would definitely be very interesting."

And just as everyone was discussing.

At this moment, Yan Hong staggered to her feet from the ground, staring intently at Lu Xueqi on the arena, her lips trembling slightly.

Her fists were clenched tightly, her knuckles turning pale, her heart filled with surging unwillingness like a tide.

However, the facts were set, and no amount of unwillingness could be swallowed down.

Yan Hong took a deep breath, slowly got up, and with a heavy and tired body, walked step by step towards where the Incense Valley people were located.

Lü Shun looked at Yan Hong, who had returned covered in dust, without any blame in his eyes. Instead, they were filled with warmth and comfort.

"Yan Hong Shizhi, don't be discouraged. Your performance this time was already very good."

"After all, that Lu Xueqi is the first place winner of the Seven Peaks Tournament."

Shangguan Ce also nodded slightly from the side, stroked his beard, and slowly and gently comforted her, "That's right, winning and losing is common."

"Moreover, this battle is also a valuable asset for your future cultivation path."

Listening to the gentle words of the Seniors, the stifling feeling in Yan Hong's heart eased slightly.

She bit her lower lip and whispered, "Thank you, Lü Shishu and Shangguan Shishu. It is Yan Hong's lack of skill that has shamed our Incense Valley."

"It's fine, it's fine." Lü Shun waved his hand.

At this time, Li Xun's gaze was fixed on Lu Xueqi on the arena. Her cold and ethereal appearance completely captivated his heart.

His eyes were infatuated, his mind full of Lu Xueqi's graceful posture with her clothes fluttering when she wielded her sword.

"If such a Fairy could become my wife, accompanying me for life..."

Thinking this, he unconsciously took a step forward and cupped his hands towards Lü Shun, asking for permission to fight, "Lü Shishu, I want to meet that Lu Xueqi."

Lü Shun frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Shizhi, that Lu Xueqi just finished a battle, her Spirit Energy should not be depleted much."

"How about letting Liu Xiaoxiao go up first to consume some of her Spirit Energy, and then you can be the anchor to fight. Your chances of winning will be higher?"

Li Xun shook his head like a rattle-drum, his eyes burning and firm, "No need, Shishu."

"I would like to have a good spar with her when we are both at our peak, so that..."

"Only then can she look at me with admiration."

Of course, Li Xun didn't say the last few words aloud, but silently repeated them in his heart with intense anticipation.

And when Lü Shun saw his insistence, he stopped trying to persuade him, just patted his shoulder, "Alright."

"With the Sect Head's Formation here, you won't lose."

"Go, Shishu is waiting for your good news."

Li Xun responded, "Yes."

Then he straightened his clothes and strode towards the arena, filled with anticipation and determination to win.

Meanwhile.

Above a stream of light in the sky, Su Han looked at Tongtian Peak, which was already clearly visible, "I wonder if the competition is over yet?"

"I hope I'm not too late!"
