Chapter 1409: Chapter 669: Heavenly Demon Heavenly Book

"Wind-breaking Moon-covering!"

This palm strike was incredibly powerful, like throwing a firecracker into a cesspit, with a "splash!" the molten lava splattered, fiery waves surged, and sparks flew everywhere!

Fortunately, Tie Dan knew well that Emei’s Hand Technique was unparalleled in the world, solid and terrifying, impossible to take head-on. He kept his head down and dodged. As expected, when his protective Death Qi was merely grazed by the palm wind, it disappeared in an instant, breaking technique and defense!

"Heavenly Gang Qi Movement! Wind Thunder Unlimited!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

The assailant, seeing their attack succeed, unleashed moves in quick succession! Their strength was truly astonishing, their cultivation deep and unfathomable, True Qi Internal Power profound beyond words! The Palm Wind Force was exquisitely precise! Every palm strike came with tremendous lethal power, and yet the vast palm wind did not leak out at all! It truly combined hardness with softness, reaching the peak of perfection!

For a moment, Tie Dan only saw a shadow move around him like a whirlwind, clearly stepping on an Eight Trigrams Array, moving laterally, blasting powerful palm strikes from all directions, as if someone was swinging a great hammer around! Any mistake, even a slight brush, would crush him to dust!

At this point, Tie Dan’s Corpse Resolved Immortal Body was essentially just a skeleton, unable to withstand the opponent’s millennia-old Dao Power with his Nascent Soul Realm Qi Gong, overwhelmed by Gang Wind! Even underground, without the help of moonlight, he couldn’t withstand a single palm strike! The situation seemed dire!

However, Tie Dan remained unhurried, dodging left and right, like a leaf in a storm, grazing past the Gang Wind, refusing to confront it head-on, not even wasting True Qi for protection, using all his Qi Power for positioning! He audaciously relied entirely on dodging! With precise movements, he dodged everything!

Yes, indeed, having fought this guy before, the same moves no longer worked on him...

Ahem, not bad! The one suddenly emerging from the earth to launch a surprise attack! His face was dark brown as if cast from copper! His muscular arms like forged iron! With his chest exposed, abdominal muscles explosive, with yang energy overwhelming from an external skills enhancement, this peerless strongman is none other than Cang Bai from Mount Emei!

To be fair, after battling him once, it was known that the Emei Sect was undoubtedly top-notch in the last Taiji version. Back then, when Tie Dan was besieged by Emei’s righteousness, he and Cang Bai were evenly matched in power, unable to determine the winner in single combat. But once surrounded by Cang Wu and Cang Bai from both sides, he was done in on the spot. In fact, if it wasn’t for Cang Bi’s considerations for the senior and junior brotherhood, granting him a break, he would have been finished then.

Yet, five hundred years later, Cang Bai still uses the same tactics, which is a bit disappointing.

Indeed, even though he was getting slapped around, Tie Dan still had the leisure to critique Cang Bai’s Daoist skills.

Naturally, it’s quite clear, back then Cang Bai, having endured three lightning tribulations as a qualified Mystic Sect, now five hundred years later, purely relying on seclusion and Qi Refining on Earth, how much could his cultivation have improved? Especially nowadays with the Heavenly Dao’s great change, opportunities and fortunes with the Cloud Platform Celestial Book were taken entirely by the Divine Sect. Even the Shenxiao Heavenly Tribulation left by the Thunder Ancestor had been broken. Which means in the Taiji Realm, the Mystic Sect’s Golden Core Method can no longer rely on thunder strikes to refine Dao practice!

Coupled with this close combat, seeing him approaching, Cang Bai’s Dao Breath was steaming, his bronze-toned chest, glistening with sweat and dense with knife and sword scars, naturally revealed the story. Over the past five hundred years, Mystic Sect was repeatedly defeated by the Divine Sect, and living in Jianghu, those of Emei Sect were naturally swept away by the grand trend, their disciples experiencing countless life and death struggles, on the brink of death. Seeing these scars made it evident that Cang Bai spent most of his time healing, with little effort left for advancing in Daoism. Compared to Tie Dan, his strength had fallen far behind.

It seems it’s the trend of the times; the rise of the Divine Sect. The Mystic Sect, at the brink of survival, was still engaged in internal battles for monsters, wasn’t it truly time for demise?

Despite the sighs, Tie Dan held no mercy when acting, flashing over ten times, spotted a Weakness in Cang Bai’s move connections. It seemed to be an old, unresolved injury lurking, half a beat falling behind, instantly seizing the moment, sword finger pointed, Sword Light flashing! A strike to counterattack! Straight towards Cang Bai’s heart!

"Sword energy!?"

Perhaps it was the overbearing deathly fox aura of this move by Tie Dan, Cang Bai was startled by the Taiyin Sword Qi, but how could Emei be just any ordinary sect! Cang Bai himself was aware of the old wound, a Weakness! At this moment, the initial surprise attack of ten palms couldn’t bring the opponent down, already raising his vigilance!

Seizing this moment for a counterattack by Tie Dan was exactly what Cang Bai anticipated! He surprisingly neither dodged nor avoided, stretching his ape-like arms, embracing the force, opening his center fully, charging forward! His posture seemed intending to take Tie Dan down with him! Willing to endure a heart-piercing strike, to embrace and crush him to death!

"Earth Escape!"

Tie Dan, having found such a fine body, would not want to be embraced to death by this sweaty, muscular man! He stomped fiercely on the ground, half of his body sinking into the earth! Passing underneath Cang Bai! Meanwhile, with sword energy between his fingers, stabbing fiercely at his Huiyin acupoint!

"Copper Seal!"

In these times, barely anyone could rival Tie Dan’s improvisational combat prowess, but Cang Bai, surviving five hundred years of fierce battles, was indeed one of them! At the moment of passing each other, he instantly leapt up, striking aside the Taiyin Sword Qi! A finger pointing towards the ground!
