Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 162 From birth to death, this is called the Heavenly Burial.

Shen Ping'an's voice was filled with deep disappointment.

If it had been just now, Shen Ping'an's words would have drawn ridicule from the Xie family and disdain from Xie Wangsun.

But now, having personally experienced Shen Ping'an's strength, which was beyond reason, both Xie Wangsun and the other members of the Xie family fell silent.

Some members of the Xie family even felt a sense of despair after glancing at the Azure Dragon Society warriors surrounding them.

Inside the arena, after assessing the strength of Xie Wangsun and his companions, Shen Ping'an no longer wanted to waste any more time with them.

The internal energy and sword intent surged rapidly within his body.

As the Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent was activated, Shen Ping'an's hair and clothes moved without any wind.

A sharp aura, seemingly capable of splitting the heavens and earth, suddenly burst forth from Shen Ping'an's body.

At the same time, strands of the power of heaven and earth rose from the ground and continuously entered Shen Ping'an's body, causing his sharp aura to increase wildly once again.

Seeing Shen Ping'an's sudden change in aura, Xie Wangsun and the other two members of the Xie family who were at the Celestial Realm level felt alarmed. They unconsciously gripped the hilts of their swords tightly, circulating their true energy to the limit. Strands of the power of heaven and earth were also drawn to the three of them.

Gongzi Yu, who was watching from a distance, keenly noticed that Shen Ping'an's power of heaven and earth was almost drilling into the ground, while the power of heaven and earth gathered by Xie Wangsun and the other two was gathering from the surrounding area in a disorderly manner.

This difference made Gongzi Yu raise an eyebrow beneath his mask and let out a soft "hmm."

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the figures in the arena, and even Bai Xiaosheng, who was standing next to him, did not notice Gongzi Yu's unusual behavior for a moment.

Inside the arena, as the sword intent and true energy within Shen Ping'an's body surged wildly, a terrifying aura rippled outwards.

In just a moment, the entire front courtyard of the Divine Sword Manor was covered.

Almost all the Xie family members of Shenjian Manor and the members of the Azure Dragon Society around them felt a sudden heaviness in their hearts, as if a large stone was pressing down on them.

Everyone felt as if they were in the rainy season, and the air around them seemed to be filled with a palpable heaviness.

Not only that, but a chill also rose involuntarily in my heart.

It should be noted that as Shen Ping'an's reputation spread, the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion continuously updated information about him, and various forces across the world also learned that the martial art Shen Ping'an practiced was the "Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique" that he himself created.

Faced with this scene, Xie Wangsun suddenly thought of the martial arts that Shen Ping'an practiced, and suddenly thought of Shen Ping'an's self-created "Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique".

Thinking of the story of how Shen Ping'an used the "Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique" to kill the Demon Master Pang Ban with a single sword strike on Bright Peak, Xie Wangsun dared not be careless and quickly said, "It is rumored in the martial arts world that his 'Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique' was created by combining it with the 'Sword Drawing Technique'. It can accumulate power. We cannot wait until he has completed accumulating power before we attack together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wangsun let out a low roar, and as he raised his longsword, the true energy that had been prepared within him for a long time rushed into his hand.

As Xie Wangsun strode forward, the long sword in his hand danced, creating a dazzling display of sword shadows.

As the sword's momentum coalesced and its tip pointed at Shen Ping'an, the surging true energy and the power of heaven and earth around it converged into a sword shadow ten feet long.

The sword shadow was fiery red, and the internal true energy and the power of heaven and earth all operated along a unique route. Around the sword shadow, sword energy was generated spontaneously, and along the way, there were hissing sounds like snakes flicking their tongues.

That was the strange sound made when the air was being torn apart.

As the sword shadow came into view, everyone felt as if the temperature around them had risen a few degrees.

It was the final move of the Divine Sword Manor's signature martial art, "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun to Seize the Sword," which was known as "Heaven and Earth Burning Together."

If Xie Xiaofeng were still alive at this moment, he would surely have been able to discover from the sword intent within these sword moves that Xie Wangsun had already cultivated "Heaven and Earth Burn" to a level of perfect mastery.

Just one step away from mastering this martial art to the point of "divine skill".

As Xie Wangsun made his move, two other Xie family elders at the Celestial Realm level acted almost simultaneously.

They all unleashed their strongest move using the "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Sword Style" by channeling their own true energy.

In an instant, three sword shadows, like three pillars supporting the sky, rushed towards Shen Ping'an.

At this moment, just watching the sword shadows formed by the three people unleashing their full sword techniques was enough to make everyone around feel a sense of unease.

The members of the Azure Dragon Society around them were already unconsciously circulating their internal energy.

As for the Xie family members, all the experts and elders of the Xie family circulated their true energy to form a protective barrier.

Even so, the younger members of the Xie family with lower cultivation levels still felt a tightness in their chests. Despite this, the younger members of the Xie family had no time to pay attention to the discomfort they felt, but instead stared intently at the scene, praying that the dark figure would be buried under the three sword shadows.

Just then, Shen Ping'an parted his lips slightly, and his voice instantly resounded in everyone's ears.

"Sword Ten, Sky Burial."

His voice remained gentle, but perhaps due to the influence of his sword intent, the gentleness in Shen Ping'an's tone was gone, replaced by a chilling feeling that sent a shiver down one's spine.

Dozens of sword shadows, each ten feet long, darted about rapidly.

The chilling and terrifying sword energy echoed around.

Although it wasn't a loud voice, the moment Shen Ping'an spoke, it resonated clearly above Cuiyun Peak, making it audible to everyone.

As soon as he spoke, Shen Ping'an raised his right hand and pushed his longsword forward. All his true energy, the power of heaven and earth, and sword energy instantly transformed into hundreds of sword lights, which surged toward Xie Wangsun and the other two with a chilling momentum.

As the sword flashed across the sky, a resounding melody filled the air, and the sword energy swept across the land.

The buzzing sound echoed like the hum of bees, causing a chill to creep into everyone's hearts.

As the sword light surged forth, it fiercely charged towards the three sword shadows in the air.

The three sword shadows in the air were instantly pierced as thin as paper, creating waves of air.

The remaining sword lights rushed towards the three from different directions as they moved through the air.

Upon seeing this, Xie Wangsun and the other two changed their expressions drastically, forcibly focusing their energy into their dantian to abruptly stop their bodies that were rushing towards Shen Ping'an.

The sudden sinking caused all three of them to sink three inches, their feet almost sinking into the ground.

Faced with the sword lights rushing towards them like streaks of light, Xie Wangsun and the other two felt a sense of fear and instinctively wanted to avoid them.

With Xie Wangsun and the other two's sharp eyesight, they could naturally see that the sword lights rushing towards them, though seemingly chaotic, had actually blocked all their escape routes.

It was unavoidable; the only option was to confront it head-on.

Therefore, the instant he stopped, Xie Wangsun shouted, "Form the formation!"

Upon hearing this, the two Xie family elders moved back and stood with Xie Wangsun at their respective positions, quickly raising their swords to slash at the sword lights rushing towards them from all directions.

The sword flashed and the sword shadows whistled.

Those around them, whose strength and cultivation were insufficient, could no longer clearly see the movements of Xie Wangsun and the other two.

All that could be heard were the deafening roars coming from the air.

All the eyes could see were deep, narrow sword pits all around Xie Wangsun and the other two, appearing from nothing until they covered a five-zhang radius around them like a spider web.

The shockwave that rippled out from around the three of them was like a cold wind from a snow-capped mountain, sending a chill down their spines as it passed by.

A chilling sword intent filled the air around Xie Wangsun and his companions.

At this moment, both Xie Wangsun and the other two Xie family elders who were at the Celestial Realm had unknowingly acquired numerous wounds.

The blood quickly soaked through their clothes.

But the surrounding sword light continued to surge and roar.

At this moment, Xie Wangsun and the other two understood why Shen Ping'an's move was called "Sky Burial".

This sword light, though seemingly chaotic, actually contains profound secrets.

It not only contains the method of combined attack formations, but also contains eight sword techniques.

Once the eight sword techniques have ended, a new sword light will arrive in an instant, and the sword techniques within will repeat endlessly, seemingly without end.

Surrounded by these sword lights, Xie Wangsun and his two companions could only struggle to cope until they were completely exhausted.

From birth to death, this is called heavenly burial.
