Heavenly Mechanism Sect?

mistress by surprise. She had assumed that the girl was a graceful martial artist, relying on finesse and nimbleness in her movements. However, the current situation proved that the girl was actually...Chapter 377: Heaven's Mechanism Sect 2

"Boom!"

The huge rock where the Immortal Wanderer had been sitting suddenly burst open, breaking into smaller pieces. However, these were not broken stones; they appeared to be intact.

The current mid-emperor stage cultivator didn't have time to notice this detail because he was still in shock. No matter how he looked at it, the others weren't where he thought they would be. Even if he had managed to break through earlier, it would all have been for naught.

They could actually hide inside that huge rock! He wouldn’t find this no matter how long he searched!

Wait a minute, inside the huge rock Why can she be inside the huge rock

Now he remembered how Solitary Star had entered the huge rock. This was completely illogical and unscientific.

Did this huge rock have a hole

In that moment, he looked at those scattered rocks to try and find some clues. But upon doing so, his doubts only grew larger.

All these stones were intact; could it be that they formed the huge rock just now

No, the huge rock seemed complete with no trace of breaking or entering. What exactly was going on here

In actuality, the answer was simple: this huge rock was made up of these stones, forming a natural cave that enclosed Solitary Star. Meanwhile, the Immortal Wanderer had done some cover-up work, fixing any traces to make them invisible.

The huge rock was placed right on the riverbank and was quite obvious, making it unimaginable for anyone to check there. Even if they did think of this, they wouldn't have been able to discover anything amiss with the huge rock.

Who would expect people could hide inside a rock This is far better than hiding behind a waterfall!

The mid-emperor stage cultivator looked at Solitary Star. Seeing her appearance made his heart churn; she was indeed of this age, and if not for the aura emanating from her body, he would never believe such a delicate girl could already be in Saint Realm.

"Kill him"

Solitary Star glanced at the mid-emperor stage cultivator and said these three words coolly. This made the mid-emperor stage feel like peeing his pants; this girl was too cold, not to mention direct.

He didn’t know that if Solitary Star hadn't wanted to hear Immortal Wanderer's opinion, she wouldn’t have even bothered saying these three words and would have directly killed him with a sword.

"Hold his life for now; I still have some questions for him." The Immortal Wanderer shook his head as he said this to the mid-emperor stage cultivator, which made the latter feel relieved.

Thank goodness, thank goodness this kid is a bit more normal. Hopefully he thinks I’m valuable and spares my life.

The mid-emperor stage cultivator prepared himself as he waited for Immortal Wanderer to question him. He was ready to speak without reservation, even preparing his name to expose the mastermind behind this plot.

However, what he didn’t expect was that Immortal Wanderer didn't ask about this matter but instead asked a well-known question at least in his opinion.

"What sword technique did you use just now Did Li Clan teach it to you" The Immortal Wanderer casually performed the move of the sword technique, which was the supreme sword path that the mid-emperor stage cultivator had used and which Li Yihun also used.

He felt this mid-emperor stage cultivator might be a member of Li Clan. Although he thought Li Yihun wasn’t likely to be the mastermind behind it, this sword technique should be somehow related to his family.

This was his guess under the assumption that he didn't know about the supreme sword path, which was also quite normal.

"What Li Clan This is the eleventh sword of the Supreme Sword Path." The mid-emperor stage cultivator looked at the Immortal Wanderer with confusion. Was there a need to ask

“Supreme Sword Path” The Immortal Wanderer repeated, considering it somewhat fitting for such an ultimate technique he had seen. This sword technique was indeed one of the strongest techniques he had encountered and created.

After all, there were always people beyond him in this world, and he wasn’t specialized in this area either; thus, it was normal to have someone stronger than himself.

This was like how Immortal Wanderer’s cultivation wasn't as strong when compared with others because he hadn’t focused solely on that path. Also, his experience was lacking; back then, the prodigy who created the supreme sword path had studied all materials related to sword paths for decades.

Immortal Wanderer's progress was already quite fast, but it wasn't easy to surpass several decades of effort from others.

The Immortal Wanderer also knew that there were at least eleven moves in the Supreme Sword Path...

"You don’t know about the supreme sword path" The mid-emperor stage cultivator was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect this well-known fact to be unknown to his opponent.

“I just came out of the mountains and am not very familiar with the outside world. Can you tell me what this supreme sword path is” said Immortal Wanderer casually.

The mid-emperor stage cultivator didn't ask where exactly in the mountains Immortal Wanderer was from, but he could guess that Immortal Wanderer had been taught by some transcendent expert who lived isolated from society. Otherwise, how would he not know about the supreme sword path

Soon, the middle-stage emperor gave a detailed explanation of this supreme sword path. He shared everything he knew about the supreme sword path.

"..."

After hearing this, Xianyao fell silent for a moment. He never would have imagined that the supreme sword path would actually be something everyone was aware of and recognized.

If it's known by everybody, then theoretically anyone can learn it. However, just because it’s widely known doesn't necessarily mean that its power is diminished or easy to counteract.

Everyone knows the sword technique, but each person who practices it will have their own unique characteristics and variations, making it hard for others to predict their moves accurately unless they can capture these nuances. Xianyao could foresee the moves because he had already grasped them and understood his opponent’s patterns.

This is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, though it was easy for Xianyao!

Furthermore, even if two individuals use identical sword techniques, their effectiveness can vary based on their individual prowess. For instance, a simple straight punch with no variation can still be formidable if executed swiftly and powerfully.

A straightforward move like that could be so effective; how much more powerful would the supreme sword path then

The thing that opened Xianyao's eyes was the person who created this supreme sword path. This approach was truly unexpected, achieving fame while also benefiting future generations.

"This supreme sword path has twenty-three moves; I've only seen ten of them. There are still thirteen..." Xianyao muttered to himself, yearning to see those other thirteen moves right away. At this moment, he suddenly turned his gaze towards the middle-stage emperor.

“Here is the secret manual for the supreme sword path…” The middle-stage emperor also got the hint and immediately understood Xianyao's intentions, taking out a copy of the supreme sword path manual from him.

If he had practiced this supreme sword path, then he must have possessed its manual. This was not exactly a secret manual anymore since it could be found everywhere for sale.

“Thanks!” Xianyao accepted the manual and flipped through it; everything seemed to be genuine as his learned ten moves matched perfectly with those in the book. The remaining sword techniques also appeared equally exquisite.

The paper cover of this manual didn't seem very old, at most a decade or so. It even bore the name of the printer who produced this manual, clearly indicating it was an open text.

"You're welcome. This is my humble offering; are there any other questions you have" The middle-stage emperor replied with great respect, not taking credit for anything he had done.

With his life in the hands of others, how dare he claim any merit

“This question should be prepared. Who ordered you to kill us” Xianyao asked casually as if it wasn’t a big deal, acting as though this matter didn't concern him much.

"He is called..."

"You can't say that." A beautiful and seductive voice interrupted.

A figure suddenly appeared beside the middle-stage emperor and struck his heart meridian with a palm, instantly ending his life.

The fact that someone could take out a mid-stage emperor in one strike indicated their formidable strength. Moreover, they appeared without sound; neither Xianyao nor Solitary Star had detected them until seeing this mysterious figure.

Solitary Star had the chance to save the middle-stage emperor but didn’t do so because she wanted to protect Xianyao first and was unsure of her motives.

Standing guard in front of Xianyao, Solitary Star cautiously eyed this suddenly appeared woman who was extremely enchanting.

The woman was someone she had never met before, but Xianyao knew her well; it was the fox spirit Moonlight Heart who returned after leaving earlier.

"You" Xianyao looked at the figure and asked indifferently as if this change didn’t matter to him much.

“Yes, I’m here out of curiosity. Initially, I wanted to save you; I did not expect your mechanical skills to be so impressive. Also, your boss is quite formidable for her age, breaking through the Holy Realm stage. And earlier, I didn't realize she was right here.” Moonlight Heart smiled and said in a very seductive manner.

Deep inside, Moonlight Heart was also astonished; she had just been near that giant rock where this girl’s aura should have been detectable to her at her current level. Yet she couldn’t sense it, which seemed quite unbelievable.

Was the girl’s concealment skillful or was there something special about this location sealing off auras

Moonlight Heart guessed it was more likely the latter; otherwise, that burst of Holy Realm aura wouldn't have been so faint. It would've been much stronger and felt within miles.

Her thoughts weren’t mistaken as Xianyao did indeed set up something in the rock to mask Solitary Star's presence, yet it couldn't conceal everything temporarily.

Originally, without anyone nearby, no one could have discovered them. But unexpectedly, so many people passed by this spot and someone even came looking for trouble..To平常, they could have easily dodged, but at this moment, their vitality was mostly used up. Even if their nervous system could still function well, their reaction ability had weakened. They moved bac...
