Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 46:Wudang’s Rising Prestige

After Ning Changge’s spiritual power had cleansed him,Zhang Cuishan’s aptitude had soared.His strength was growing every moment.

He had now reached the mid-stage of the Grandmaster level,surpassing even Song Yuanqiao,solidifying his position as the foremost of the Seven Heroes of Wudang!

At this moment,with Yin-Yang Infinity Technique in full swing,Zhang Cuishan was brimming with vigor,instantly standing out from the chaotic melee.With a swipe of his sword,the boundless Qinglong Sword Qi burst forth,clearing a path.

His Floating Cloud Rainbow Feathers technique was as ethereal as a celestial being!

Under the gaze of all,Zhang Cuishan seemed to ascend to heaven,leaping several dozen feet into the air and grabbing the Dragon-Slaying Saber!

The scene fell silent.

Moments ago,many had fought fervently,yet none had touched the saber.Now,Wudang’s sudden action,with their stunning lightness skill,caught everyone’s eyes,even surpassing the Qing-Winged Bat King’s agility.

Wei Yixiao was dumbfounded:“What the hell is that body technique??”

Everyone could only watch as Zhang Cuishan,moving elegantly,returned with the Dragon-Slaying Saber to the Wudang faction.Inside,Zhang Cuishan felt a thrill—it was exhilarating!

The Floating Cloud Rainbow Feathers technique was created by Ning Changge,based on Wudang’s Ladder Cloud Vertical,with an effect similar to hovering and gliding,far superior to the original.

With the Dragon-Slaying Saber now in Wudang’s hands,all eyes turned to them.

The Seven Heroes of Wudang stepped forward,a surge of Grandmaster aura instantly erupting.Behind them,disciples revealed their innate cultivation,their gazes cold and piercing.

The crowd gasped.

For some third-rate sects,an innate martial artist was the strongest within.But at Wudang,they were merely ordinary disciples.

Wudang’s previous low profile had masked this.Unbeknownst to everyone,Wudang had developed such a deep foundation!

It was terrifying.

Especially with the Huashan Sect and others rallying around Wudang,advancing and retreating together,it made others wary.

Yet,the allure of the Dragon-Slaying Saber was substantial,and the crowd clearly wouldn’t let Wudang leave so easily.

The White-Browed Eagle King of the Ming Cult spoke gravely,“We have always respected Zhang Zhenren.The Dragon-Slaying Saber was the weapon of our Law King.Now that he has passed,does Wudang intend to seize the saber like these other louts?”

The crowd implicitly surrounded Wudang.

Despite Wudang’s strength,the place was filled with experts,including many Grandmasters and even elites.Leaving easily wasn’t realistic.

Song Yuanqiao,scanning the crowd,spoke with unwavering composure,“The Dragon-Slaying Saber has existed for over a century,coincidentally falling into Xie Xun’s hands.Now that he’s gone,whoever holds it,owns it.Eagle King,your words are unreasonable.Should we then ask the saber’s owner from a hundred years ago?”

The crowd’s expressions shifted.The Ming Cult members were about to retort when Song Yuanqiao continued,“Indeed,Wudang desires the saber,but not for selfish reasons.”

“Everyone heard the Lion King and the Shaolin monk’s conversation clearly.The turmoil surrounding the Dragon-Slaying Saber involves the Mongol Yuan dynasty,aiming to watch our Ming martial world fall into chaos.If the Mongols were to invade due to this,it would result in unimaginable suffering!”

“Our master often taught us to discern right from wrong and understand propriety.Wudang is willing to take the risk and temporarily keep the Dragon-Slaying Saber.In a month,we will invite all heroes to Wudang to witness its destruction together!”

“Only then will the killings in the martial world cease!”

“I vow on my master’s century-old reputation that Wudang will not keep the saber for ourselves!”

Song Yuanqiao’s words were grand and firm,his gaze serene,instilling trust in everyone.

Behind him,the Huashan Sect members shouted in agreement,“Indeed!Now,in the Ming dynasty,we only trust Wudang and Zhang Zhenren’s character,unlike some who appear righteous but have hidden agendas!”

This veiled swipe at Shaolin darkened Kongwen’s face.

Hearing Song Yuanqiao’s pledge on Zhang Sanfeng’s name,everyone exchanged glances.

Now,anyone trying to seize the saber would be seen as acting out of selfishness!

Song Yuanqiao cleverly positioned himself on the moral high ground.

For a moment,many contemplated retreat.Reason gradually returned,and they saw this as the most rational solution.Since they couldn’t obtain the saber,its destruction was a viable option.

However,not everyone accepted this easily.

“Wudang’s Seven Heroes—though I respect the title,apart from Zhang Sanfeng,does Wudang have anyone noteworthy?The Dragon-Slaying Saber should be entrusted to us for safekeeping!”An elder from Crescent Moon Villa suddenly attacked.

Despite Wudang’s increased prowess,many still doubted them.This elder,fierce and cunning,aimed a demonic blade at Zhang Cuishan,the blade energy dark and sinister.Ding Peng,the Demon Blade,was a Heaven-Man level master,and his disciples’techniques carried a demonic aura.

Zhang Cuishan snorted,handing the Dragon-Slaying Saber to Mo Shenggu and stepping forward.

For the first time,he fully exerted the Yin-Yang Infinity Technique.Grandmaster-level Yin-Yang energy surged,forming a faint Taiji Diagram before him,reflecting Zhang Sanfeng’s essence.

The demonic blade energy shattered upon contact with the Taiji Diagram.

With a swing of his sword,Zhang Cuishan’s Qinglong Sword Qi slashed the elder,cutting him in multiple places and aiming for his throat.The elder’s face changed dramatically,retreating with a startled cry.

The sword energy followed him,stopping only after cutting a fine line on his throat.The elder,shaken,bowed with respect and fear,“I spoke rashly.The Seven Heroes of Wudang live up to their name.Zhang Zhenren’s teachings are exceptional.Thank you,Zhang Daxia,for sparing my life!”

He led the Crescent Moon Villa members away,withdrawing from the contest.

The scene fell silent.

Everyone looked at Zhang Cuishan in shock.

A fellow Grandmaster was defeated so easily,showcasing frightening strength.This battle ensured the Seven Heroes of Wudang’s reputation would spread throughout the Ming world.

But some remained unconvinced.

Wei Yixiao gritted his teeth and attacked,“If Wudang takes the Dragon-Slaying Saber,our Ming Cult will be ridiculed!”

With ghostly agility,he lunged.

Yin Liting snorted,using Floating Cloud Rainbow Feathers.Among the Seven Heroes,he excelled in lightness skill.The two shadows danced,mesmerizing the onlookers.

A dull thud echoed.

Wei Yixiao,blood at his mouth,retreated,his eyes filled with shock.“Wudang’s lightness skill is peerless.I,Wei Yixiao,concede!”

The Ming Cult withdrew.

The Emei Sect’s Master Jinguang couldn’t resist,realizing that even if Wudang took the saber,they needed to show their strength to avoid later rumors of Wudang’s dominance over all sects.

In that moment,everyone attacked.

The Seven Heroes of Wudang met each challenge.

A Grandmaster swordsman from Divine Sword Manor attacked,but Yin Liting,with his Qinglong Sword technique,defeated him swiftly.

Gui Hai Yi Dao from Dragon Guard Villa tried to intercept but was also bested by Zhang Songxi’s blade skills!

Each battle left onlookers stunned—Wudang’s Seven Heroes displayed unparalleled skill in lightness,swordsmanship,and martial arts,defeating opponents effortlessly!

It was astonishing.

Seeing the calm Wudang disciples,everyone fell silent.

This battle had shown them Wudang’s true power.

With no more challengers,Song Yuanqiao,smiling,clasped his hands and said,“Since no one objects,Wudang will take the Dragon-Slaying Saber.In a month,we will invite all heroes to Wudang to witness its destruction,preventing the Mongols from using it for more bloodshed!”

The crowd remained silent.

As Wudang prepared to leave,several Buddhist chants echoed,appearing instantly before the crowd.

Three elderly monks stood there,saying,“Master Song,please leave the Dragon-Slaying Saber in Shaolin.It is most fitting for us to destroy it.”

Their aura erupted,shocking everyone.

Three Heaven-Man level masters!
