Wen Caishang’s brow slightly furrowed, sensing that Li Xian had some hidden change, though she couldn’t discern the details. Seeing Li Xian’s Second Realm mastery, facing the oppression from the Five Mountains, he could hardly conceal his brilliance, his presence was indeed extraordinary.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar sounded, and the five mountains shook violently, cracks spreading across the mountain bodies, and they suddenly collapsed! Mud and giant stones rolled and fell, as if to swallow the people. Li Xian and Wen Caishang, standing in the midst, inevitably appeared very small and faced the danger of being buried under the mud and stones in an instant.

This strange scene was an illusion, yet the pouring mud and stone were real. The rolling, pressing force of every grass, wood, stone, and sand was indeed the killing moves of the five elders. Essentially, they were sharp swords directly aiming for vital points.

A rumbling roar was heard as a giant stone covered with moss and entwined with vines rolled down from a high place in the mountains, accompanied by countless fine sand and soil, coming with the force of ten thousand pounds! This strange scene was essentially the result of Wang Zongzheng wielding a great sword vertically while Xiao Wanjian executed a fast sword with rapid stabs.

In conjunction with the scattering shadows and light around, Hou Yuande’s "Illusion Sword" created this bizarre image. It turned the two people’s sword moves into boulders rolling down the mountain. Any spectator of this killing move would likely disarm and surrender, dare not resist, and be obediently buried and devoured by the mountain torrents. Even the most courageous person would find it hard to perceive the mystery within, merely treating it as a boulder and sand rolling toward them, and how to resist the sword moves under illusion would ultimately be futile struggling.

That boulder was a feint, with the deadly move hidden among the fine sand. Li Xian remained calm, completely disregarding the strange scene all around, and suddenly made a light thrust forward.

The move was extremely ordinary yet contained the principles of Yin Yang and the Swordsmanship of the Great Self Realm. Where his sword point aimed, the mud and sand dissipated, and the overwhelming force vanished instantly.

With heavy pupils, Li Xian was no longer intimidated by this illusory spectacle.

Moreover, with the Dual Swords Unite, using Wen Caishang’s cultivation to wield sword moves, it contained infinite transformations, and its power was truly indescribable. This simple thrust contained great martial principles, and with a sharp "ding", Li Xian thrust into the mud and sand, sparks flying as the sword tip met another longsword. Xiao Wanjian’s extremely powerful sword, hidden within the illusion, was easily subdued by Li Xian.

Xiao Wanjian, Hu Yueyue, Duan Yixin, Wang Zongzheng, and Hou Yuande, after agreeing to the duel, trained rigorously to combine their sword moves. Combining each’s strengths, they layered martial arts effects and created such bizarre scenes. Though they sensed that victory wouldn’t come easily, they were confident they would force Wen Caishang to reveal a few techniques.

Who could have expected that they would be first thwarted by Li Xian.

Li Xian’s momentum shifted slightly, eyes slightly narrowed, as he wielded his sword with his presence and created a world. After breaking through Xiao Wanjian’s killing move, his steps quickly advanced, disregarding Wang Zongzheng who slashed down alongside him. At this moment, though it was the Dual Swords Unite, Li Xian led, and Wen Caishang followed. The swordsmanship’s rhythm and coordination were all controlled by Li Xian. As he intended to unleash a killing move, Wen Caishang followed as per his will to combine their attack.

The two wielded their swords rapidly, joint attack and defense, and in an instant, Xiao Wanjian was repeatedly wounded, barely raising his sword to block, and continually retreating. Each step he took, the ice underfoot melted from the heat, leaving a trail of wet footprints. Affected by the Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword, his body’s Yin Yang was imbalanced, his five organs, blood, and flesh were all being boiled, his entire body unbearably hot.

He roared angrily, disregarding everything, and thrust his sword fiercely toward the two. The two executed successive sword moves, cutting left and right, their movements like enchantments, the sword being severed segment by segment. The Yin Yang Immortal Companions Sword transformed, with the rhythm of simplifying complexity.

The vast strange scene collapsed and dissolved.

Hu Yueyue and Duan Yixin revealed their forms, greatly shocked at the sight, immediately coming to the rescue. They attacked from both sides. Wen Caishang swept her sword away, her Soft Sword spiraled and extended, intercepting Hu Yueyue, while Li Xian leveraged the momentum to attack Duan Yixin. His sword seemed to contain a world, coming with a simple thrust, yet all kinds of mysteries and peculiarities rushed forward.

Duan Yixin had never seen such swordsmanship in his lifetime. For a moment, he was flustered, deeply experiencing Xiao Wanjian’s predicament. Wen Caishang felt something odd but didn’t know that above the peak there was the "Great Self" realm comprehension, a feeling hard to express entirely. Though she intended to observe coldly, she ultimately worried about Li Xian. A few moves with the White Snake Soft Sword forced Hu Yueyue into disarray, causing her to stagger and retreat continuously, then with a light tiptoe, she rose lightly, flying over Li Xian’s shoulder, descending from above to finish off Duan Yixin, cooperating with Li Xian to confront a common enemy.

Their two swords each grazed Duan Yixin’s cheeks, Duan Yixin immediately could not resist, screamed a few times, was flung backward, already defeated and falling from the scene. At this point, the Five Mountains Sword Alliance was already showing signs of decline, their morale greatly diminished, unable to form a great force. Following that, Hu Yueyue and Wang Zongzheng were sequentially defeated, stubbornly resisting but unable to reverse the tide of defeat, their swords were knocked flying, and they were severely injured.

Wang Zongzheng further fell into the lake, drenched and chilled to the bone.

With Hou Yuande also defeated, this session of duel was a complete victory. Wen Caishang intended to retract the sword momentum, to retrieve the White Snake Soft Sword into the ’Jie Xumiao Clothing’. Suddenly, Li Xian extended his sword, the Cyan Sword opposed the White Snake Soft Sword blade, preventing Wen Caishang from withdrawing her sword, preserving the "Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword" momentum, and stood firmly, the two swords crossed and opposed.

Wen Caishang was slightly surprised, seeing Li Xian stopping her from retracting momentum, guessing it was due to his cautious nature. She thought, "This young one is exceedingly cautious, with these five elders all heavily injured, could they still create any waves? Well, walking through the Jianghu, being cautious has only benefits, no harm. Let him be then."

Hu Yueyue, Wang Zongzheng, Xiao Wanjian, Hou Yuande, and Duan Yixin five were in a pitiful state, supporting each other to get up, their bodies full of holes, sword marks, scratches, and stained with blood.

Hu Yueyue said, "You two are truly formidable, in this instance as expected... we are still greatly defeated, wholeheartedly convinced. The matters about the tomb, it’s our Five Mountains Sword Alliance’s offense!"
