In his view, the power of this sword strike was at least comparable to that of a celestial being on land.
This was even before he had fully unleashed his cultivation.
Starting from scratch, it only took three months to reach this level, and that was under the rule of casting a divination every seven days.
With the upcoming Heavenly Secrets Monthly Assessment, his cultivation will only improve at an even faster pace.
A whooshing sound suddenly rang out around the Drunken Immortal Pavilion.
Five dark figures silently approached a guest room in the darkness.
In a room directly opposite Zuixianlou,
A young man stood by the window, gazing at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion in the distance, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips, and said softly:
"Xu Fengnian, you were lucky before, you escaped several calamities."
"This time, General Fu has mobilized all five of his troops. Let's see how you escape now!"
If anyone from the Liyang Shangyin Academy were here, they would immediately recognize this young man's identity.
He was a very famous student in the academy, named Zhao Kai.
Upon seeing that the five men in black had arrived, Zhao Kai immediately gave the order.
As soon as he finished speaking, five dark figures rushed into the room at the same time.
"Boom boom boom..."
Immediately afterwards, the sounds of fighting rang out.
Zhao Kai sneered, "Master is right, the King of Beiliang has indeed placed many assassins around Xu Fengnian, but—"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw one assassin after another being thrown down from the heights.
"Young master, run! It's General Fu Hongjia!"
Old Huang scrambled to Xu Fengnian's door and grabbed him, pulling him outside.
Xu Fengnian, still in his pajamas, asked blankly, "What is Fu Jiang Red Armor?"
"That's a long story."
"Several hundred years ago, someone discovered a meteorite from outer space. It was so amazing that people all over the world fought over it."
"Half of it was forged into the divine weapon 'Ox' and hidden in the Wu family's sword tomb. Later, it was stolen by Li Chungang, who used it to roam the world."
"The other half was used to forge this Red Armor of the Talisman General, which was obtained by the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain. Many talismans were engraved on the armor, making it even more powerful."
"After being passed down for several generations in Longhu Mountain, this armor was stolen by Shangyin Academy, which engraved Buddhist scriptures and Sanskrit on it, making it even more powerful."
"Later, Longhu Mountain and Shangyin Academy fought a fierce battle over this talisman, but Ye Hongting of the Southern Frontier Dragon Palace got the benefit."
"You must have heard of Ye Hongting, right?"
"Back then, he was one of the four great masters, alongside the Gun Immortal Wang Xiu and the Sword God Li Chungang."
Chapter 32 Blood Moon City
"His strength was already very strong, and he was also skilled in using talismans to cultivate his qi. He used the Dragon Palace's supernatural powers to fuse the talisman general's red armor with himself, making him invulnerable to swords and spears, and impervious to water and fire, causing his strength to skyrocket."
"Later, when the Southern Frontier was destroyed, Ye Hongting broke into Tai'an City in the middle of the night to assassinate the old emperor, but ended up running into Han Diaoshi."
"He is skilled at killing Xuan Realm cultivators with the power of a Heaven Realm cultivator; below the Earth Immortal level, Han is invincible."
"Although Han Diaoshi is not among the four grandmasters, his strength is terrifying. He not only defeated Ye Hongting, but also skinned him alive, armor and all."
"However, I don't know how this talisman divided the red armor into five pieces: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth."
Old Huang pulled Xu Fengnian out of Zuixianlou while explaining to him.
After regaining his footing, Xu Fengnian said, "So, the person who wants to kill me is Han Diaoshi?"
"Maybe, but Han Diaoshi probably didn't come, otherwise we would be dead already."
Old Huang said with a smile.
Seeing how calm Lao Huang was, Xu Fengnian sneered, "Lao Huang, do you admit now that you're a master?"
Old Huang nodded and said, "These five generals are coming with great force. The assassins that the prince arranged are probably useless. I have no choice but to take action myself."
No sooner had he finished speaking than four fully armored puppets pounced on him.
Fu Jiangshuijia was stopped by Nangong Pushe.
Old Huang looked solemn and suddenly put the box on his back on the ground.
After a series of clicking sounds, the box, whose contents Xu Fengnian had never known, was finally opened.
Inside were five gleaming swords.
The first sword, a single strike that cuts through the dust and lets dragons and snakes roam freely!
The second sword is a pair of twin lotus flowers born from the interplay of Yin and Yang!
The third sword has a sword aura that weighs three pounds!
With Lao Huang's control, swords flew out of their cases and headed straight for the four suits of armor.
In an instant, sword energy surged forth!
The surrounding martial arts practitioners were all startled, and they all looked up to see what was happening, their faces showing shock.
Old Huang, who followed Xu Fengnian, is remembered by many.
But no one took him seriously, treating him only as a servant or groom for Xu Fengnian.
But at this moment, Lao Huang was like a sword god, controlling five flying swords, with sword energy surging all over the sky.
Just by looking at his aura, he's even stronger than the Ximen Chuixue of the past.
Inside the Tianxiang Restaurant.
Zhao Kai squeezed hard, and the wine glass in his hand shattered. He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, how come Xu Fengnian has such a troublesome person by his side?"
Seeing Xu Fengnian getting closer, Zhao Kai no longer cared about the wine glass and gritted his teeth, shouting, "Kill! Even if we have to use all our trump cards, we have to take down Xu Fengnian!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the aura of the five armored puppets on the field immediately surged.
Fu Jiang Shuijia broke free from Nangong Pu's obstruction and rushed towards Xu Fengnian along with the other four puppets.
The five armored figures attacked together, each unleashing their most desperate moves, just like Ye Hongting had reappeared in the past.
Old Huang also raised his spirits to the limit and shouted loudly:
"This sword was originally intended for Wang Xianzhi, but now it can only be used on you for the time being."
"Jian Jiu, six thousand miles of bad horse and yellow wine!"
What an amazing sword strike!
With a flash of sword light, the entire street became as bright as day.
Like the Milky Way hanging upside down in the sky, this swordsmanship was beyond the reach of ordinary mortals. The talisman's armor was instantly shattered, turning to ash.
In the third room of the "Heaven" section of Zuixianlou.
Sikong Zhaixing's eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed, "What a powerful sword strike! No wonder Lu Xiaofeng said that old groom Huang was no ordinary man."
Ximen Chuixue also showed a serious expression and said in a low voice, "These five suits of armor were almost at the Divine Realm level, yet they were killed instantly by a single sword strike. This person is indeed powerful; even if Lu Xiaofeng and I joined forces, we might not be able to win."
"Back in the day, Xu Xiaoma roamed the martial world, offending countless sects."
"How could the Crown Prince of Beiliang have made it safely to Snow Moon City without a skilled protector by his side?"
"However, this time someone has used such a powerful trump card, it seems that the Crown Prince of Beiliang will not have an easy time in the future."
Lu Xiaofeng shook his head as he spoke.
In room number seven of the Tianzi section of Wanhua Tower.
A cold and beautiful woman dressed in red sat by the window; it was Ye Hongyu, who had come from the Xiling Divine Palace.
She was still savoring the memory of that sword strike, and after a long while, she let out a soft sigh:
"What a brilliant move, 'Sword Nine Thousand Miles'! Once this sword is unleashed, there is no sword technique in the world more skillful than it."
On the sixteenth floor of the Dengtian Pavilion.
Li Hanyi and Yaoyue stood side by side. When Lao Huang made his final sword strike, their expressions changed.
"This person's cultivation level is at least at the half-step Divine Realm."
"And the power of this sword has already reached the level of the Divine Travel Realm."
"Invite the Moon," he said in a deep voice.
Li Hanyi thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I remember now, this person's name is... Sword Nine Emperor."
Yaoyue said, "Back then, there was indeed a swordsman in the Jianghu of Liyang named Jian Jiuhuang. Legend has it that he possessed three-tenths of Li Chungang's charm. Seeing him today, he is indeed extraordinary."
"It's such a pity that such a master would be willing to be the groom of the Prince of Beiliang."
Li Hanyi shook her head, feeling sorry for Lao Huang's talent.
At this time, on the battlefield.
Xu Fengnian was completely stunned by the sword strike. It took him a while to come to his senses. He exclaimed in surprise, "Old Huang, you have this skill too!"
"Young master, be careful, the enemy may have a backup plan."
Having revealed his true abilities, Jian Jiuhuang was no longer foolish and spoke with a serious expression.
Xu Fengnian said, "Even if you kill the five generals of Lianfu with one sword, anyone else who comes will just be throwing their lives away."
Jian Jiuhuang shook his head and said, "Young Master, have you forgotten what I just said? This Red Armor Talisman should have been in Han Diaoshi's hands. If Han Diaoshi comes, things will get complicated."
"Then let's wait until he arrives."
Xu Fengnian waved dismissively and strode toward the battlefield.
"What a fine talisman-covered red armor! Sure enough, the surface has talismans and Buddhist symbols from Longhu Mountain, and it can even repair itself."
"This thing is really valuable, absolutely priceless."
Xu Fengnian happily put away all five suits of armor.
