I Have Countless Past-life Identities
Chapter 341 - 149: The ’Eight Arts’ Surpassing the Pinnacle of Mortal Martial Arts—Song Brahman Mirror and Ruan Xiuxiu Compete for a Husband! (Part 2)
"Tantai Ye of Fumo Temple has mastered the ’Vajra Demon-Suppressing Form’, known as the most difficult technique in the history of the sect, and it is also the foremost martial art in the world."
"If I don’t have some skills..."
"How can I defeat three at once?"
"That’s why I’m anxious, that’s why I want to wage war on Yunluan Mountain."
Song Brahman Mirror’s voice fluctuated:
"After the fourth step, when you want to advance in cultivation, it’s no longer a matter of how many great medicines or Dao Pills you’ve consumed to smoothly break through the barriers."
"I’m just a sliver away from being a ’giant’, but crossing this critical barrier requires fate. I’ve been searching for the opportunity to break through, yet have always lingered at the gate, unable to undergo a second baptism."
"Even though... I once possessed the Innate Sword Bone and acquired ’Eternal Instant’, said to be one of the eight arts, the pinnacle of human Sword Dao."
"But in reality, I only have fragments of it, a superficial understanding at best. I can contend with giants, but if a true Peak of the Human World arrives, I am definitely like an ant trying to stop a carriage, unable to withstand it. However..."
Song Brahman Mirror approached Jixia, full of tenderness, her white robe and palace gown unable to conceal the fullness of her chest. After sheathing her sword, she embraced his arm, her eyelashes fluttering:
"With the recent series of events fulfilling my long-held wishes, and with that old brute Song Yuan being so aggressive, suddenly, a blessing came to my heart, and I succeeded in breaking through."
"All of this is thanks to you, junior brother."
"Your appearance has equaled thirty years of my arduous cultivation."
The woman blinked lightly, just wanting to snuggle up, but at this moment, an untimely voice rang out, causing her to furrow her brows and roll her eyes.
Then you hear.
"Why didn’t Senior Sister break the grand formation directly with her sword when she attacked the mountain a few days ago, but instead...?"
Ruan Xiuxiu watched Song Brahman Mirror holding Jixia, furrowing her brows together, somewhat conflicted.
Song Brahman Mirror slightly turned her head, speechless:
"That old brute Song Yuan is dead, and Cui Chan used his life to clear my name."
"So, think carefully with your stubborn brain, since the cause of all this isn’t because of me."
"If I used this sword and accidentally harmed you while killing Song Yuan, would it be right or wrong?"
"Ruan Xiuxiu."
"Though you’re quite cunning, always currying favor and making everyone on the mountain, the elders, senior and junior brothers and sisters, both respect and like you, always comparing openly and secretly, trying to overshadow me."
"But fortunately, you are not of bad nature, even if you shout to kill me daily, considering you do this for Yunluan and for avenging the teachers, I won’t hold it against you."
"Otherwise..."
"Do you really think the Yunluan Array can stop me?"
"One of the eight arts, the end of the sword, Eternal Instant, even if I only mastered a little, once this sword is activated, time within a small range will sharply slow down..."
"And at the same time, it puts the user into a state of ’Sword Heart Clarity’, in which every flaw and loophole can be seen clearly."
"But once activated, it will reach a state of ’no thought, no self’. By then, Song Yuan, you, and Yunluan Mountain’s disciples could all fall, so I chose to slowly grind down Yunluan Mountain’s array instead."
"Do you understand my painstaking efforts now?"
After explaining all the causes and details, Song Brahman Mirror gently lifted her chin and snorted.
Thinking again about the ’grievances and grudges’ over these decades, Ruan Xiuxiu realized it was all due to her one-sided view and didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Hesitating and hesitating again, looking at Song Brahman Mirror holding Jixia’s arm, she still bit her lip:
"I’m... sorry, Senior Sister Song."
"It’s been my fault all these years."
"Song Yuan indeed deserved to die!"
"Regarding all the events, I will inform the elders later, compile it into a book, and let every Yunluan Disciple who enters know, ensuring they aren’t prejudiced against you because of this event."
"Additionally, "
"Ruan Xiuxiu... has a request."
Song Brahman Mirror squinted her eyes, lazily asking:
"What is your request?"
In her view, with her yellow Sword Master attire, looking valiant with a ponytail, Ruan Xiuxiu solemnly said:
"Logically, decades ago, the person to inherit Yunluan Sword Palace shouldn’t be me."
"If Senior Sister had not been wronged, this position should have been yours, now... it’s just returning to the rightful owner."
"I still miss those times when I could wear the clothes I love and find the people I love, so..."
"Please, Senior Sister, ascend to the position, inherit the Sword Master, and lead Yunluan!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
"Ruan Xiuxiu is willing to step down and let you excel!"
As soon as she said this, the little disciple Pei Lvye hiding behind the pillar was shocked. Originally silent and acting as a small transparent, she couldn’t hold back anymore:
"Master, you mustn’t, how can the numerous elders...?"
Before she finished speaking,
She was pulled back by Yousu Yue behind her, while the Little Fox Girl excitedly, her eyes round with anticipation, clapped and cheered:
"Where are you going?"
"Isn’t it a good thing that their grievances are resolved? That way, we become senior and junior sisters, how wonderful!"
"I’ve grown this big without having any friends."
"Well..."
"I am Primordial Pill, you are Great Innate, once my Aunt Song becomes Sword Master, and your master becomes minor, how do we count that? Besides age, you should actually call me senior sister."
Pulling Pei Lvye, Yousu Yue, with her quirky way of thinking, dragged her dress, showing her little tiger teeth:
