Chapter 2154: 910, a sword with three thousand sword marks!
 

“Yu Chenglin?”

Among these two figures, Han Muye actually recognized one.

The master of Yutai Peak, a Half-step Extinction Path Realm, Yu Chenglin, ranked just below Guo Hua in cultivation abilities within the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

It was also he who betrayed the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, assassinated an elder of the Sword Nurturing Hut, and stole the Wind Spirit Sword.

“It seems you are truly Guo Hua’s true disciple, even an old man like me knows it.” Yu Chenglin chuckled as he looked at Han Muye.

He was thin, with a trace of paleness on his face.

The black-haired, bearded elder beside him had a tall and sturdy figure, his eyes emitting fierceness.

“Chamberlain Yu, did you say that these stone tablets are related to the Wind Spirit Sword?”

The elder’s gaze fell on the stone tablet behind Han Muye as he spoke in a deep voice.

So they came for these stone tablets.

Han Muye stared at Yu Chenglin.

“I get along well with Guo Hua, and I’m not keen on killing you,” Yu Chenglin shook his head, his expression indifferent, “The All-Encompassing Sword Sect is bound to perish, if you want to live, leave now.”

Saying this, he waved his hand, pointing at the stone tablets a few feet high: “Do all these stone tablets have rubbings?”

“Give me a copy.”

His tone carried no trace of politeness, as if genuinely speaking to a junior disciple.

He really didn’t consider himself an outsider.

“What about the Wind Spirit Sword?” Han Muye’s voice rang out.

This took Yu Chenglin by surprise.

The elder by his side, already impatient, stepped forward, his hand transforming into a dragon claw form.

“Kid, you talk too much.”

With one swipe, a gust of wind shook violently.

The howling sound tore through the hearts of real people; if it were someone in the Initial Knowing Realm, this swipe would directly collapse their spirit.

This was a Body Refining Expert in the Breakthrough Path.

Yu Chenglin watched Han Muye.

Just a moment ago, like an elder instructing his junior, he had offered Han Muye a way to live; now, watching a Breakthrough Path expert take action, he coldly observed from the sideline.

Han Muye remained unflustered, drawing his sword with a flick of his wrist.

The ringing of the three-foot-long sword being unsheathed was faint under that howling swipe but yet resonant and clear.

The sword edge traced a profound path of flowing light, gently trembling.

“Dang—”

The Breakthrough Path elder’s palm was directly blocked.

The sword edge met his palm, holding the dragon claw-like hand a three feet distance away.

The elder’s face revealed a trace of bewilderment.

Yu Chenglin’s expression also tightened.

Because they had not witnessed Han Muye’s confrontation with Xia Yunshang at the gate of the mountain due to their mission to assassinate the elder of the Sword Nurturing Hut, they had thought Han Muye might withstand this strike, but they did not expect it to be so effortlessly.

“Tzz—”

Han Muye thrust his sword forward, touching the elder’s palm and emitting a light sound.

A flash of blood light appeared in the Breakthrough Path elder’s hand, causing him to step back holding his arm.

A wound deep enough to see bone emerged.

“You, you—”

Incredulous, the elder stared at Han Muye, his eyes full of surprise.

He was a Body Refining Expert, yet not many swords within the All-Encompassing Sword Sect could hurt him.

A junior, with a casual sword strike, had injured his palm.

Which body-tempering cultivator’s palm isn’t harder than a rock?

“Is this the sword move inscribed on that stone tablet?” Yu Chenglin’s voice rang out.

His eyes shimmered with desire and greed.

The Breakthrough Path elder, reminded by Yu Chenglin’s words, also looked at Han Muye, his eyes exploding with light.

Han Muye’s sword, the sword moves Han Muye wielded, and those stone tablets were all treasures!

With a flip of his hand, the wound on his palm healed.

Clenching his fists tightly, the Breakthrough Path elder attacked again.

His right hand flashed with golden light as he put on a gold Fist Protector, then punched out.

“Ang—”

A golden dragon shadow emerged, charging towards Han Muye.

The entire small building vibrated, echoing with the dragon’s roar.

This was a Body Refining Expert making a move!

On Moon-Encompassing Peak, multiple figures were rushing toward this place.

A glint of killing intent flashed in Han Muye’s eyes.

His sword suddenly trembled, tilting its edge and sweeping out an arc of light.

The sword edge collided with the fist shadows three feet away, severing the dragon image in a single strike.

The three-foot-long sword lightly twisted, turning the dragon image into a cloud of golden mist.

Enshrouded in the cloud of mist, the sword’s edge thrust forward.

The elder from the Dao Breaking Realm couldn’t even retract his fist before the mist smashed into his arm.

“Bang——”

His arm exploded into pieces, shaking his entire body, making him uncontrollably retreat three steps.

Without any hesitation, Han Muye moved rapidly forward, his sword edge sweeping out.

Dazzling sword light exploded into three thousand meteor-like haloes.

“Three Thousand Starlight Sword!” Yu Chenglin exclaimed in shock and turned to flee.

Behind him, sounds of the sword edge piercing flesh echoed.

The elder’s body alongside him was penetrated by numerous sword edges, blood spurting wildly.

…

When Du Chen and others arrived at the Scripture Pavilion, they saw no trace of Yu Chenglin, seeing only the elder’s body pierced by Han Muye’s sword edge.

“Dao Breaking Realm!”

“Yang Mingheng of the Heavenly Roaring Sect!”

“An elder of the Heavenly Roaring Sect, actually infiltrated this place!”

Everyone was thrown into panic.

Fortunately, this powerful member of the Heavenly Roaring Sect had already been slain by a single strike from Han Muye.

Han Muye waved his hand: “Take him to All-Encompassing Peak. Let everyone know that our Moon-Encompassing Peak is devoted to the sect and has fully eliminated an infiltrated expert from the Heavenly Roaring Sect.”

This statement brought joyful expressions to everyone’s faces.

It wasn’t just because they had accomplished a feat, but also because of Han Muye’s powerful strength.

A Dao Breaking Realm expert, so easily slain—when the new master of the peak was there, how could Moon-Encompassing Peak not thrive?

After Han Muye left, Du Chen and others began to examine the fallen body.

“This sword wound…”

“A single sword, Three Thousand Sword Scars!”

“Peak Master Guo Hua once said, the Sword Dao of Moon-Encompassing Peak, with three thousand sword scars marks true great achievement. Han Muye, as master of the peak, can now deliver three thousand sword scars in a single strike!”

Some studied the sword scars, others the meaning revealed within them.

And some were excited by the sight.

This body being sent to All-Encompassing Peak was clearly a show of strength!

“The Sword Dao inheritance of Moon-Encompassing Peak is indeed the future of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.”

…

No sooner had the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak returned than they slew a Dao Breaking expert.

This stirred a commotion throughout the entire sect.

Two elders from All-Encompassing Peak arrived, bringing with them prizes of considerable value.

Han Muye unapologetically kept them all.

Han Muye made no mention of Yu Chenglin.

Yu Chenglin had infiltrated Moon-Encompassing Peak in order to claim the stone tablet located there.

Han Muye spared Yu Chenglin for the Wind Spirit Sword Yu Chenglin had taken.

From the fist protector of Dao Breaking expert Yang Mingheng, Han Muye saw many memories.

They contained numerous plans and cultivation methods of the Heavenly Roaring Sect, as well as their experiences infiltrating the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

Especially the many secrets regarding Yu Chenglin.

The leader of the Heavenly Roaring Sect was Yu Chenglin’s direct uncle.

Yu Chenglin had infiltrated this place specifically to take the Wind Spirit Sword back with him.

Han Muye knew that the other side would come again, and furthermore, would return the Wind Spirit Sword.

He was in no rush.

For an entire month, Moon-Encompassing Peak remained undisturbed.

This disappointed those who wanted to see a conflict between Moon-Encompassing Peak and All-Encompassing Peak.

But what they did not know was that several disciples at Moon-Encompassing Peak had already made secret breakthroughs.

In front of the Scripture Pavilion.

Han Muye gently waved a three-foot-long sword in his hand.

Zhang Mingyuan and a group of disciples focused intently, eyes glued to the tracks of his sword light.

The Path of Three Thousand Sword Scars—this was the apex of Sword Dao inheritance not just of Moon-Encompassing Peak, but of the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect!
