Chapter 359 Broke the Sky and the Sea
The wreckage of the explosive car was still burning.
The fiery flames blended perfectly with the dim yellow sword intent.
The night faded in the sword intent, and the mountain road became clear.
Time seemed to become very slow all of a sudden.
Gu Xingyun’s roar was stretched countless times. All the voices seemed to come out bit by bit, messy and broken.
The sharp sword gradually appeared in the dim yellow light.
Everything flashed in Li Qingcheng’s mind, including all the scenes in her life that was just beginning.
They flashed from small to large, from far to near, and became constantly clear.
When she was young, she had known that her father did not like her.
She was the only daughter of Gu Xingyun, the God of War of Zhongzhou State. She had a distinguished status, but she had almost never received the favor she should have enjoyed.
In her childhood memories, except for the indifference between her parents, all her impressions were only the never-ending flying snow outside Kunlun City, her mother who often sat motionlessly in her room, everyone’s complicated glances at her in the Gu family, the half-blood brother who always seemed to dislike her, and the closest father who took a lukewarm attitude toward her.
In the memory of Li Qingcheng, it seemed that his father had hugged her only a few times since childhood.
When she called him, he would nod. When he was in a good mood, he smiled and even touched her head in a better mood.
Sometimes he asked what she wanted.
This was rare. So every time he asked, Li Qingcheng asked for a lot.
Gu Xingyun also calmly promised her and then brought her everything she wanted every time.
When she was eight years old, Gu Xingyun asked her again what she wanted.
After thinking for a long time, she carefully said that she wanted to practice Martial Arts.
So after that day, she had a few superb teachers even in the entire Dark World and began to contact the Ten Skills of True Martial Arts in Kunlun City.
Gu Xingyun never refused her requests.
His somewhat silent promises were deep and gentle.
But most of the time, his performance had been calm and indifferent.
Li Qingcheng was always aware of the huge gap between her and her father.
All the care and indulgence from him were hesitant and tangled. Even his occasional tenderness seemed to be so alien.
Of course, Li Qingcheng felt wronged. But as she grew older, she became more and more indifferent to this matter.
There might be many stories between her parents. But no matter whether those stories were happy or sad, involving grievances or feelings of love and hatred, no matter how distant and alien the relationship between the father and the daughter was, as a father, he had offered everything his daughter wanted and was never mean.
The long sword with the dim yellow sword intent moved forward.
Countless pictures appeared and disappeared in the mind of Li Qingcheng, from beginning to end again and again.
Li Qingcheng laughed suddenly.
She suddenly remembered her ninth birthday.
That day, her elder brother, who had disliked her since she was a child, directly threw the birthday cake prepared by Kunlun City onto the ground and tore a plush toy given to her by her mother. Her father, who saw this scene, did not say anything but slapped her elder brother hard directly.
Li Qingcheng remembered this scene, not for the pleasure when she saw her elder brother being beaten, but for the words that her father said calmly when seeing her elder brother, whose corner of the mouth was bleeding.
“After all, she is your younger sister.”
Li Qingcheng wanted to look back at Gu Xingyun.
But she thought too fast and moved too slowly. So she could not turn her head in time and naturally could not see Gu Xingyun’s expression.
This man, who had made enough contributions to Zhongzhou State and Kunlun City over the years, might have many errors and even sins. But from the standpoint of Kunlun City, no one was qualified to say that Gu Xingyun was a bad person.
No matter what, he was also her father.
So the moment the sword light fell, she threw herself into his arms.
She was resolute.
The long sword ran through her chest.
The Ninth Blade · Dusk.
But the dusk was not warm, with piercing coldness.
The broken syllables in Gu Xingyun’s throat finally converged into a word.
“No!!!”
It seemed that until Li Qingcheng flew up to stand in front of him that Gu Xingyun really realized how important his daughter was in his heart.
He also liked Li Qingcheng before, but it was a restrained and hidden love. This kind of love did not affect his use of Li Qingcheng in exchange for the interests of Kunlun City.
Because she was the daughter of Li Xi.
Gu Xingyun also liked Li Xi.
But he felt that Li Xi was very impure.
Gu Xingyun would not hesitate to exchange something using her daughter.
But it was not until this delicate figure stood in front of him that he fully understood that Li Qingcheng was not only Li Xi’s daughter but also his own bloodline.
And this time, his life was saved by Li Qingcheng’s sacrifice.
It was best to live.
So he made a profit.
But why did he feel so painful inside?
Gu Xingyun’s voice was loud and hoarse. The word was shouted out so quickly that he hurt his throat directly when saying it, leaving a smell of blood in his throat.
Gu Xingyun stood up straight.
When Lin Youxian was willing to withdraw his sword but instinctively stabbed forward, Gu Xingyun took a step back with Li Qingcheng.
An angry sea suddenly appeared on the mountain road with burning flames.
Before all of the sword intent in dusk broke out in the body of Li Qingcheng, it was crushed by the sudden emergence of the angry sea.
The furious sea roared, and the incredibly majestic sword intent gathered in an instant.
Gu Xingyun’s face was pale. But the furious sea that had gathered into the sky instantly presented unparalleled anger and majesty.
This was the sword intent of Gu Xingyun.
Since he had been forced to die, Gu Xingyun almost forcibly restored some of his strength at all costs.
The sword intent in the sky became extremely solid and sticky.
The angry sea formed by sword intent covered the night sky as if the whole world were oppressing Lin Youxian’s living space.
Gu Xingyun held his daughter and stepped forward.
The angry sea in the air suddenly became turbulent.
It seemed that one could hear the undulating sounds of the tide rising and falling on Winter Mountain at night. In front of Lin Youxian, a tide up to hundreds of meters with cold killing intent pushed forward to Lin Youxian without mercy.
This was an entire riot of the angry sea, with a suffocating sense of despair and oppression.
Under the huge wave, Lin Youxian’s long sword pierced into the sky. For the first time in his eyes, a savage expression that did not fit his mild appearance appeared.
The huge wave with infinite sword intent hit down extremely quickly.
Lin Youxian growled.
In the angry sea, it suddenly thundered like crazy!
In the twinkling of an eye, the overwhelming lightning erupted hysterically with Lin Youxian as the center.
The endless sword intent filled the air and became a sea.
The turbulence of the sea brought up a wild wave composed of sword intent.
Lin Youxian stood in the middle of the angry sea with a sword and pierced it straight up. The turquoise blue sword tip sharply pointed at the sky and condensed. For a moment, the entire angry sea seemed to be dyed turquoise blue by Lin Youxian’s sword light.
Gu Xingyun’s expression suddenly changed.
He thought that this young man was just a temporary helper that Li Tianlan had found. But he never expected that the other party would be so powerful.
Who was he?
With this sword move alone, the opponent was enough to rank among young Chosen Ones of Zhongzhou State.
Its sword intent was full of arrogance and even surpassed that of his son Gu Hanshan in Gu Xingyun’s opinion.
The 24 Moves of Sword...
In addition to Li Tianlan, was there a character like him in the Li family?
Infinite lightning went straight up in the deep sea. The fierce and resolute sword light stirred the angry sea full of sword intent and moved forward.
Gu Xingyun’s face became paler, but he insisted on taking another step forward.
The raging angry sea became completely crazy. The seawater condensed by the sword intent smashed into Lin Youxian.
But Lin Youxian’s turquoise sword light finally broke through the blockade and imprisonment of the angry sea and went straight into the sky.
The terrifying thunder entered the Ninth Heaven!
The turquoise sword light suddenly became dangerously pale.
The sounds of thunder came violently. When the Sword Energy passed by, the dense bolts of lightning covered the whole night sky immediately.
Countless bolts of lightning began to converge.
Below the sky and above the angry sea, the gathering lightning turned into light columns that connected heaven and earth.
The amazing light columns burst into the angry sea with crazy and broken Sword Energy.
The sea was boiling.
Gu Xingyun finally recognized this sword stroke.
This was the Absolute Sword in the 24 Moves of Sword.
The Twenty-second Blade · Break of the Sky!
Gu Xingyun turned around.
In the middle of the angry sea, the young man who had used up half of his Sword Energy was already covered with blood. But his body was straight, and he did not step back at all.
He was so unyielding!
Gu Xingyun’s eyes were dizzy, but his killing intent became more and more determined.
Li Tianlan had already made Kunlun City feel pressured. If this young man was with him and they grew up together, where was the future for Kunlun City?
The boiling angry sea shrank in the light columns that shone through the sky.
The majestic sea continuously shrank and gathered.
So the sea became a condensed river, but the sword intent was getting stronger.
Gu Xingyun desperately improved his power at all costs.
He took the third step forward.
The long raging river seemed to be a stripe and rushed directly to the blood-stained Lin Youxian.
It moved forward with great strength.
It was the final hit.
Lin Youxian stared at the long river in the air. Even if his death was near, his eyes showed no weakness, but only strong fighting desire.
The long raging river boiled and rolled. The sword intent continued to condense and produced white waves.
The long river poured into the ground from a high altitude.
Lin Youxian raised his sword in his hand.
The sword light did not light up.
Gu Xingyun was stunned a bit and suddenly found that his sword intent, the long river, had completely stopped in the air.
How could that be?
Gu Xingyun’s brain was in chaos.
The long white river raged and rolled, but stopped moving forward.
Gu Xingyun, who was already a little dizzy, finally saw the end of the long river.
There was a white dot there.
Small and unreal, it almost completely integrated into the long white river.
That was a person in white.
Li Tianlan!
Gu Xingyun’s somewhat blurred eyes instantly became deep and focused.
Li Tianlan, who appeared silently in the battlefield, stood in front of Lin Youxian.
His body floated slightly.
He had no violent sword intent.
He just held out a hand.
He stretched one finger forward.
He just used one finger to block the entire mighty long river directly.
For the first time, Lin Youxian’s eyes looked terrified.
He was not shocked at Li Tianlan’s ease.
He was very close to Li Tianlan, so he knew the power of Li Tianlan’s finger.
His movements were simple, but the power of his whole body seemed to be completely condensed into that finger. So it could block the entire long river.
Lin Youxian could clearly feel that endless power in Li Tianlan’s body was being consumed during this stalemate. Besides, the speed was getting faster and faster, with no sign of stopping.
However, Li Tianlan seemed to be unaware that his power had no end at all and seemed to be able to support consumption in any form.
This was no longer anything that could be explained by Wind and Thunder Veins. Such power was almost more than what Wind and Thunder Veins brought to the body.
Li Tianlan stretched out his finger.
The huge power consumption suddenly began to increase exponentially.
The waves surged at the end of the river and instantly turned into a huge vortex.
Li Tianlan looked calmly at the vortex in front of him.
He suddenly smiled and said softly, “Break.”
Break.
It was not destruction.
It was not shattering.
It was breaking the sea!
Breaking the sea.
This was the sword intent that had never appeared in the Dark World. It was based on 24 Moves of Sword, but it was far beyond them.
This was Li Tianlan’s own sword intent.
One finger broke the sea.
A cool breeze rose in the night sky.
The breeze was not fierce but was extremely rampant.
The cool breeze blew across the river.
Suddenly, the entire raging long river exploded directly in the wind.
The water splashes condensed by the infinite sword intent were flying everywhere in the curtain of night. The river was scattered in the air, and the sky was full of sword intent as well as water splashes.
The long river was divided into two and then two were divided into four. Then four became eight and even ten million. Finally, they quietly disappeared in the night sky.
Gu Xingyun stared at Li Tianlan so hard that he seemed to see a ghost.
One finger broke the sea.
But from beginning to end, Gu Xingyun did not even see Li Tianlan’s sword intent.
It was vague and illusory. It had no shape or image. What kind of thing was this?
Li Tianlan quietly looked at Gu Xingyun.
Without the obstruction of the sword intent, the long river, Gu Xingyun’s figure became extremely clear.
He walked in the air silently and blandly, with extreme danger.
“Li Tianlan, how dare you kill me?!”
Gu Xingyun took a deep breath and suddenly yelled. “Have you ever thought about the consequences?”
Li Tianlan was too lazy to speak but just moved forward.
He was here to kill him.
Now that he could fight, why bother to argue?
“You are forcing me! You are forcing me!”
Gu Xingyun suddenly became furious. “How dare you force me?!?”
The quiet night suddenly froze.
All the light instantly disappeared completely.
The surrounding area within 100 meters suddenly fell into absolute silence.
In the darkness, the violent sword intent surged. With violent power, it seemed to exterminate everything.
Gu Xingyun finally forcibly condensed his domain.
This was his Tenth Unique Domain!
It was also the most authentic Tenth Unique Domain in the entire Dark World today.
Even if he could not show his full strength now, this was still the most authentic.
Li Tianlan’s footsteps finally stopped in the Tenth Unique Domain.
The domain was dark inside.
But his figure was still hovering freely, not floating out of control.
The tyrannical sword intent that permeated the domain rushed forward frantically.
This was like a real Unique Domain of its own, without any vitality.
In the darkness, Li Tianlan raised his arm.
Instead of surging, the domain and sword intent were more bleak. A pure light suddenly burst out from Li Tianlan’s palm.
The dazzling light was fully released in his hand and illuminated the void.
He wore blood-stained and broken white clothes and became extremely real in an instant in the Tenth Unique Domain.
There were the illusory domain and the imaginary sword intent.
Only he was real.
Only light was real.
Suddenly, Li Tianlan’s vital force began to rise wildly, rushed out of the domain, crossed the sky, and reached the star dome.
At this moment, Li Tianlan was still in the domain.
But the so-called domain, the so-called Winter Mountain, and the so-called night view became unreal.
Only his figure was real.
Because it was real.
It seemed extremely huge.
It seemed that he stepped on the whole world.
The sword intent finally showed up in the hand of Li Tianlan.
He raised his arm, not fast or slow, but with a natural stretch.
All the light in his hand became sword intent, real enough to tear up the sky.
The sword was a killing weapon.
It could kill people, break the sea, and naturally, cut the sky!
Cutting the Sky!
Only one’s own sword intent was the best for one.
It was the most suitable and the strongest.
The dazzling light shone completely in Li Tianlan’s hand.
One finger broke the sea.
One sword cut the sky.
The Tenth Unique Domain began to be ferocious and turbulent. The darkness receded, and the entire domain completely melted where the light spread.
Gu Xingyun’s eyes became bright.
Obviously it was a battle of life and death, but he had an obsession with the battle in his eyes.
He finally saw Li Tianlan’s sword intent.
Even if there was only one stroke, it caused an extremely violent shock to his heart.
This was the road to the Chosen One.
This was the sword of the Chosen One!
Martial Arts, Martial Arts, if the Martial Arts of ordinary people were still in the martial category, the so-called Road to the Chosen One already entered the domain of Tao.
Gorgeous and dangerous light was still shining.
Gu Xingyun seemed to see a real new world.
Vaguely, he saw a stronger road and really saw the gap between him and a few people like Wang Tianzong.
This was what he dreamed of.
Gu Xingyun was short of breath.
He was sure that if he could not die tonight and had a few years to heal, he could definitely go further within ten years. Even if he could not surpass Wang Tianzong, he could almost reach the level of that “Deity”.
The Tenth Unique Domain was still turbulent.
Gu Xingyun’s desire to win became stronger than ever.
He spat out some blood, tightly held his daughter in his arms, and roared suddenly.
In the crumbling domain, uncountable sword intent suddenly burst into pieces.
No matter how high Li Tianlan’s kendo and sword intent were, absolute quantity could still make up for the lack of quality.
The light shining in Li Tianlan’s hand was suppressed once again.
Gu Xingyun kept on moving, and the already almost destroyed Tenth Unique Domain expanded again.
In the darkness, the ultimate light lit up again, with a cold snort of Li Tianlan.
Suddenly, the light strong enough to tear the sky suddenly soared.
The enlarged Tenth Unique Domain completely blended with the light.
It became suddenly quiet in the night.
Darkness and light blended together completely, collapsing and shrinking in silence. Soon a loud sound rang through the entire Winter Mountain.
After the loud noise, the domain and sword light dissipated at the same time.
Li Tianlan, who was covered in blood, spat a mouthful of blood and slowly stood straight.
It became quiet again.
Lin Youxian sat alone on the ground, and his face didn’t look so good.
Gu Xingyun, however, had already taken Li Qingcheng away at an extremely rapid speed after the final outbreak.
Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists, and did not speak.
The siren at the foot of the mountain rang out with the flashing lights.
The garrison troops and police in Huating arrived at Winter Mountain almost at the same time.
