Lin Xuan's expression stiffened slightly. Seventh- to ninth-grade techniques are considered advanced martial arts, while his strongest skill was only fifth-grade.
"Double Heavenly Sword Formation!"
Leaping into the air, Lin Xuan unleashed four transparent flying swords.
One hovered beneath him, allowing him to float, while the other three shot toward Stone City Lord, forming a sword formation just like the previous three.
Two sword formations now encircled Stone City Lord, forming massive sword-energy barriers.
At the same time, the point on Stone City Lord's sword condensed into a powerful beam of Yuan energy, shooting directly at Lin Xuan.
The six flying swords converged in a frenzy, hundreds of streams of spiritual sword energy colliding with the beam.
Vibrating… The Yuan energy shockwaves shook the skies above Yan City.
Many Yuan Dan Realm experts sensed it and turned their eyes toward the City Lord's mansion.
"Who is fighting the City Lord?"
"When did Yan City produce someone able to rival the City Lord?"
Curiosity and shock spread among the onlookers.
The City Lord is the strongest in Yan City. Anyone who could fight him must have stepped into the Dao of Creation Realm.
Xia Wanjin and Yan Xuan immediately sensed Lin Xuan from the Yuan energy and spiritual fluctuations.
They were stunned....so soon, Lin Xuan had already grown strong enough to spar with the City Lord.
After one strike, peace returned.
Inside the mansion, Lin Xuan and Stone City Lord landed from the air.
Stone City Lord gazed at Lin Xuan deeply, a trace of melancholy in his eyes.
"Truly, the young surpass the old."
He sighed, then said gruffly, "You don't need me to put pressure on you."
"City Lord, you are too modest. Your final strike was indeed strong.....I did feel some pressure," Lin Xuan said earnestly.
That last blow almost reached him, though even if it had, it might not have pierced his golden aura.
"You!" Stone City Lord almost spat blood....this was his desperate ultimate move.
Even for a fellow Creation Realm expert, it might not have been so easily blocked.
"Thank you, City Lord. I've learned a lot from this battle.
Now I'm even more confident to break through to the Creation Realm. Once I do, we'll spar again."
Lin Xuan bowed respectfully, smiling.
The reward from this City Lord task was impressive...he could farm it again later.
"No need. I'll retreat to seclusion," Stone City Lord immediately refused.
He felt too much pressure now. To fight again before a breakthrough would be suicidal.
"By the way, City Lord, that Broken Jade Sword Technique of yours is incredible. I'd like to learn it. Whatever conditions, I'll agree if I can meet them," Lin Xuan said, his eyes burning.
A seventh-grade martial art—probably only Stone City Lord possessed it in all of Yan City. He had even asked Xuan Su to help look, but fifth-grade techniques couldn't be found, let alone sixth or seventh.
Stone City Lord looked at him, puzzled. "You practice the spear, yet you're interested in swords?"
"Better to have variety than chew only one thing!"
Although Lin Xuan used flying swords, the essence was still the application of spiritual energy.
Most martial artists focus on a single weapon.
"I just happened to have a spear, so I practice with it. I don't limit my weapons—anything works. My martial path has no restrictions!"
Lin Xuan said casually.
Indeed, for him, learning martial arts was just a matter of establishing tasks and grinding them repeatedly.
No need to worry about mastering too much.....time alone would make him proficient in everything.
And after the tower battles, he gained medium-level sword talent. Learning swordsmanship now was exponentially easier.
"Father, don't look at Junior Brother Lin Xuan like an ordinary person.
Have you ever seen anyone his age reach such achievements in both martial arts and spiritual power?"
"My junior brother learns everything instantly. Just be straightforward....if you're willing to teach him, say so clearly."
Zi Yue suddenly interjected. Regarding her father's secret techniques, she dared not request directly. She only praised Lin Xuan's talent to give him leverage.
"You… a daughter shouldn't be so willful," Stone City Lord scolded Zi Yue, today his little cotton-padded jacket had leaks everywhere.
"This sword technique, though only barely advanced, is an absolute family secret. I normally wouldn't teach it.
But, seeing your relationship with Zi Yue, and that she likes you… if you promise to marry Zi Yue, I'll teach it to you," Stone City Lord said seriously.
He had always admired Lin Xuan, especially after witnessing his talent and potential. He was certain Lin Xuan would become world-renowned.
