Chapter 60 Wudang (2)
‘This is a disaster.’
The moment Gu Yangji unleashed the Heavenly Sword Technique, Xian Jianjin swallowed hard.
It wasn’t that he judged it unstoppable. It was simply an unsettling feeling.
What he was about to unleash now transcended the first-rate level; it was the realm where even a faint sword aura began to form.
‘Could he have reached the pinnacle of the sword?’
By martial arts world standards, it was absurd. Truly, it was the sort of event one might find in the wandering knight tales circulating in the world.
But Xian Jianjin recalled the path Gu Yangji had walked thus far.
Unexpected, and unconventional.
Hadn’t those footsteps continued, leading them to personally invite Gu Yangji?
Therefore, he harbored no arrogance, thinking, ‘Surely not.’
He took in the sight of Gu Yangji as he stood before him, exactly as he was.
Then he stepped forward.
Whoosh—
The internal energy coiled at the tip of Xian Jian Zhenren’s sword mingled with the void, emitting a clear, crystalline light.
Even at that moment, Xian Jian Zhenren was still pondering how to soothe Gu Yangji’s heart.
Had it not been for the shock that followed.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
“…Ugh!”
A faint sigh escaped between Hyun Geom Jin-in’s lips.
The weight he sensed now felt different—perhaps his earlier judgment hadn’t been mere apprehension.
The internal energy channeled through the True Sword technique couldn’t be measured in mere five years.
A cultivation base nearing half a cycle, nearly thirty years, was not something a young man like Gu Yangji should possess.
