The Villain's Counterattack

The second dream at this time was confusing.

The stranger who was shouting that he wanted to devour the true energy and blood of himself and his daughter to break through the realm of heaven and man a moment ago, now wants to accept him as his disciple in the blink of an eye?

Such a huge turn of events made Di Er Meng unable to accept it for a while.

Although the Second Sword Emperor was seriously injured, he was not yet unconscious or dying. He questioned in a hoarse voice this young man, whom he himself could not understand, asking him what qualifications he had to be his daughter's master.

The young man glanced at the Second Sword Emperor and curled his lips in disdain, saying, "How dare a half-step Heavenly Being with insufficient essence, weak Qi, and a biased spirit dare to show off in front of me, a Half-step Heavenly Being with perfect essence, Qi, and spirit, who can break through to the third realm at any time?"

After hearing what the young man said, Di Er Meng's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately asked what the senior meant. The young man casually commented on the situation of the Second Sword Emperor and briefly introduced the three types of celestial beings: essence, energy and spirit.

"Spirit, Qi, and Spirit complement each other. When the essence, Qi, and Spirit are full, one is invincible in the same realm. If one is insufficient, there will be omissions. If two are insufficient, one will be lost to the crowd. If all three are insufficient, one will be reduced to dust. You, an old man, have not yet mastered physical training. While you may seem diligent in sword training, you are actually following the path of the Divine Sea Heavenly Man. Furthermore, you have taken the wrong path by combining the True Yang Qi with the Merciless. Ultimately, you are not on the right path."

The young man shook his head slightly and said, "Paranoid people make rapid progress in the early stages of their cultivation. Their unconventional swordsmanship can be extremely lethal, but the path they take is full of dangers, hurting both themselves and others. They may seem powerful, but they cannot withstand the test and will ultimately fail to reach the peak."

The Second Sword Emperor flew into a rage upon hearing this. He had become famous at a young age, and had fought against all the swordsmen in the world without any defeat. If he had not met the First Evil Emperor, how could he...

Seeing the Second Sword Emperor chattering away, spitting blood and spewing foul language, the young man didn't argue with him. He simply cast his gaze on Di Er Meng and said, "You have good talent, girl. Although you took a detour at the beginning of your cultivation, practicing the extremely yang and ruthless path that wasn't suited to your physique, you quickly balanced it out with a pure yin superior martial art. However, your realm is insufficient, and you don't understand the principle of yin and yang balance and mutual support. As a result, you've harmed yourself. Truly..."

The young man shook his head and sighed repeatedly, "If you had met me when you first started practicing the two techniques together, you wouldn't be in this predicament today. Judging from your aptitude and the state of your inner Qi, even if you're not as good as me, you're still a master with a complete breakdown of your spirit, energy, and spirit. There's no need to burn yourself to deal with a half-baked celestial being like your father. What a shame, what a shame, a piece of unpolished jade has been wasted for so long by an ignorant and reckless man."

The Second Sword Emperor was so angry that he almost fell over, but the Second Dream seemed to be thinking about something. She had already seen that this man was not a bad person and was quite optimistic about herself. Listening to him talk about many martial arts principles, they all corresponded to her own one by one, and she couldn't help but continue to ask questions.

"I am Wuyazi, the second-generation head of the Xiaoyao Sect. I studied under Xiaoyaozi. Our sect is a hidden sect, known only to the Jianghu. However, we possess several traditions that are directly passed down from the gods. We have inherited the arts of medicine, divination, astrology, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, mechanical work, trade and planting, drinking and singing, riddles, the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, Qimen Dunjia, agricultural water conservancy, economics and military strategy."

The young man glanced at the Second Sword Emperor and continued, "Our martial arts emphasize lightness, elegance, and boundless power. Mastering any of these qualities will make you invincible in the martial arts world. Our founding master is a man of great learning and talent, not just any ordinary mortal. Therefore, he holds his disciples to very high standards. He will not accept anyone who is not handsome, talented, or intelligent."

"Girl, being able to join the Xiaoyao Sect is a great fortune for you. Don't look at your current Broken Realm. Even if you become my disciple, you will only be a nominal disciple in the early stages. You will have to go through a lot of trials. You will need to be able to gain a foothold in the martial arts world in at least one of the other miscellaneous skills before you are eligible to become an inner disciple. After that, you can become a true disciple."

In response to the Second Dream's question, the young man (Duan Lang, who was impersonating Wuyazi) continued, "There are countless inheritances within the sect, and there are thousands of martial arts alone. The highest level of inheritance includes 'Free and Easy Control of the Wind', 'Eternal Life Secret', 'Heavenly Demon Strategy', 'Tai Chi Divine Art', and 'Yellow Turban Warrior Secret'. These inheritances, when practiced to perfection, can reach the pinnacle of heavenly beings."

"Under 'Xiaoyao Yufeng' there are three second-level divine arts: 'Eternal Spring Art', 'Northern Divine Art', and 'Small Formless Art'. If practiced to the extreme, they can also reach the state of a celestial being and have the effect of eternal youth."

"The Secret of Immortality has extremely high requirements for qualifications. It has seven major methods of Yin and Yang, Five Elements, and even beginners need to be innate."

"'The Heavenly Demon Strategy' is extensive and profound. Among them, 'The Heavenly Demon Great Method' is suitable for women to practice and also has the effect of eternal youth. 'The Dao Heart Demon Planting Great Method' is also known as 'Planting Jade Skill' and 'Planting Demon Technique'. It has methods for entering the devil from the Tao, and also methods for entering the Tao from the devil. It is most suitable for your current state, and you can freely switch between the path of compassion and the path of indifference."

"The Immortal Seal in the Heavenly Demon Strategy focuses on the transformation of life and death energy, and can also help you escape. Other techniques such as the Heavenly One Law, the Heavenly Heart Lotus, the Purple Qi Heavenly Net, the Ziwu Heavenly Gang, and the Demonic Phase Technique can also help you achieve the state of breaking or even reaching the state of celestial being."

"'Tai Chi Divine Art' lives up to its name, focusing on Yin and Yang Tai Chi. It includes several different magical arts, including 'Tai Chi Divine Fist', 'Great Shift of Heaven and Earth', and 'Shift of Stars'. Each has different effects, but the best at deflecting attacks is the ultimate defense. Practicing these techniques together can truly lead to a state of celestiality."

"The Yellow Turban Warrior's Secret is a supreme physical training technique, originating from the Taoist Qigong method of the Qin, Han, and Three Kingdoms periods. It is a specialized technique for Taoist guardian warriors. As a teacher, I have also practiced this technique. At the same level, I can remain motionless and remain unharmed even if attacked by the enemy."

Wuyazi (Duanlang) introduced the so-called Xiaoyao Sect martial arts in a leisurely manner. Not to mention the Second Dream, even the Second Daohuang was stunned.

"The above are all martial arts. There are countless other fists, kicks, and weapons as well. Each divine skill has its own supporting skills. There are also sword techniques such as 'Nine Styles of Heavenly Sword', 'Eight Methods of the Well', and 'Seventy-two Aspects of the Tyrant Sword', which are martial arts that can break through the realm of heaven and man. Sword techniques are even better than sword techniques. Among them, the most outstanding are 'Nine Swords of Dugu', which can break all martial arts in the world, and the Tai Chi sword technique that matches 'Tai Chi Divine Art'."

After telling about these many great inheritances, Wuyazi (Duanlang) briefly mentioned "Cihang Sword Canon", "Yijianshu", "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art", "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra", "Controlling the Root of All Laws" and other martial arts that have been sublimated by Duanlang in this world to reach the broken realm, which also made Di Ermeng and his daughter feel like they were in a dream.

"The Xiaoyao Sect possesses countless magical skills, not just their own creations. The name 'Xiaoyao' doesn't simply mean freedom and ease, but also implies being above the law. Therefore, they have also collected martial arts from many other sects' masters, such as the Tianxiahui's Xiongba's Heavenly Frost Fist, Cloud-Removing Palm, and Wind God Kick, the Wushuang City Sword Saint's Holy Spirit Sword Technique, the Nie family's Ice Heart Art and Ao Han Six Art, the Duan family's Eclipse Sun Sword Technique, the Beggar Gang's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and many more."

The Second Dream and the Second Sword Emperor were speechless upon hearing this. They might not know about others, but how could they not know the name of the Sword Saint? The Holy Spirit Sword Technique was the signature skill of the Sword Saint Dugu Jian, and its grade was definitely not inferior to the Sword Emperor and Sword Emperor techniques inherited from the Second Dream.

"Disciple Di Er Meng, I pay my respects to Master!" Di Er Meng no longer hesitated and knelt on the ground.
