Chapter 81, General Deng Jiu of the Three Mountains Pass
The middle-aged man is none other than...
It was none other than Deng Jiugong, the General of Sanshan Pass!
Today, he is a pillar and general of the Yin Shang dynasty.
Upon seeing the middle-aged man, Chen Changsheng immediately recognized his identity.
Putting everything else aside, the sword technique she practiced was far more powerful than the one Deng Chanyu had used before.
In terms of swordsmanship alone, it can already be considered to be superb.
Upon seeing Chen Changsheng and his group arrive, Deng Jiugong withdrew his sword and glanced over them.
When he saw Deng Chanyu, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but in an instant, that joy was overshadowed by anger.
"snort!"
"So you still know to come back?"
Deng Jiugong angrily asked, and slammed the long knife he was holding into the ground.
You should know that Deng Chanyu's previous runaway from home had caused her father a great deal of worry.
Wave after wave of people were sent out to find Deng Chanyu.
Unfortunately, after several months, there was still no news of Deng Chanyu, which made him restless and unable to eat or sleep.
Now, seeing Deng Chanyu return home, Deng Jiugong was naturally happy inside, but on the surface he appeared to be blaming her.
"father."
"My daughter knows she was wrong."
Seeing Deng Jiugong's anger, Deng Chanyu lowered her head and said.
At this moment, Deng Xiu hurriedly said:
"Father."
"It's good that my sister is back safe and sound."
"I hope Father will not be too angry, lest he harm himself..."
Before Deng Xiu could finish speaking, Deng Jiugong's gaze darkened, and he looked at him coldly, scoffing:
"How can you be such a responsible older brother?"
"At a time like this, you're still defending her?"
"I've been telling you to keep a close eye on her, but you've been ignoring me, haven't you?"
Deng Xiu was stunned and was speechless after being rebuked by Deng Jiugong.
Immediately afterwards, Deng Jiugong's gaze shifted and landed on Chen Changsheng.
He had noticed Chen Changsheng earlier.
Although Chen Changsheng had concealed his aura, Deng Jiugong could still tell that the young man before him possessed extraordinary bearing.
It gave him a feeling of unfathomable depth.
Seeing Deng Jiugong looking him over, Chen Changsheng remained calm and unperturbed.
After observing for a moment, Deng Jiugong spoke with slight doubt:
"Who is this?"
Upon hearing this, Deng Chanyu prepared to introduce her master to Deng Jiugong.
However, before she could speak, Deng Xiu interrupted:
"Father."
"This immortal master is Chen Changsheng, my second sister's master."
"He is a disciple of the Jie Sect, and a fellow disciple of Crown Prince Wen Zhong of the current dynasty!"
Deng Xiu appeared very excited when she said this.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Deng Jiugong was naturally shocked.
"From a family of saints?"
"He's also a fellow disciple of the Grand Tutor!"
Deng Jiugong exclaimed inwardly, just moments ago wondering who this young man brought back by Deng Chanyu was.
I never imagined it had such an origin.
It should be noted that he had been stationed at Sanshan Pass for many years and had consulted Wen Zhong on military affairs on numerous occasions, so he was well aware of the prowess of this Grand Tutor who had served three emperors.
Because of his daughter Deng Chanyu, he had always wanted to become an apprentice of the immortal and learn his skills.
Deng Jiugong then asked Wen Zhong about the relevant matters.
According to Wen Zhong, Deng Jiugong learned that it was very difficult for immortals to accept human beings as disciples.
As for why, Wen Zhong did not tell Deng Jiugong.
It is said that it is extremely difficult for humans to cultivate.
To Deng Jiugong's surprise, Deng Chanyu actually joined the immortal sect after running away from home.
Moreover, he is from the same lineage as the current crown prince, Wen Zhong.
Shocked, Deng Jiugong quickly regained his composure, a smile spreading across his face, and said:
"So it's Master Chen!"
"My name is Deng Jiugong."
As he spoke, Deng Jiugong bowed to Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and replied:
"General Deng, there's no need for such formalities."
"I have some kind of connection with your daughter, which is why I took her in as a disciple."
Before Deng Jiugong could reply, Deng Chanyu quickly stepped forward and approached him, her face full of excitement:
"father!"
"Master is amazing."
"My daughter was previously besieged by the demon race."
"When their lives were in danger, it was Master who intervened, summoning the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to instantly annihilate those demons!"
"In addition, my master also combined my Deng family's sword technique to create a new sword technique tailored for me."
Without further ado, Deng Chanyu demonstrated what she had learned in front of Deng Jiugong.
"Clang!"
As the twin swords were drawn, a flash of light erupted, like thunder piercing the sky!
The starting stance is no longer the ordinary sword techniques of chopping, slashing, parrying, and thrusting.
Instead, it carries with it a resolute and sharp determination to move forward without hesitation.
At the same time, a deep, thunderous sound emanated from Deng Chanyu's twin swords.
The next moment, Deng Chanyu's figure shifted, her steps becoming mysterious.
The twin swords in his hands were incredibly fast; with each swing, streaks of silver light crisscrossed across the room.
In a mere instant, a net of sword light and lightning was woven in front of him.
What shocked Deng Jiugong even more was...
Within Deng Chanyu's swordplay, there was a scorching, masculine, and destructive sword intent.
He devoted his life to mastering swordsmanship and considered himself to have reached a state of perfection.
It was immediately apparent that Deng Chanyu's swordsmanship was no longer an improvement in technique.
Every strike he made stirred up the surging energy within his body.
The blade moves with the energy, and the energy enhances the blade's power!
Between man and knife, they almost reached a state of oneness.
Before Deng Jiugong could recover from the shock, Deng Chanyu let out a sharp cry on the training ground, her figure suddenly leaping up and followed by a powerful chop.
"Boom!"
Then, a faint, almost imperceptible white light condensed on the blades of his twin swords, tearing through the air and slashing down fiercely!
"Bang!"
The tip of the knife stopped abruptly three inches from the ground.
The terrifying blade wind pressed two clearly visible marks into the ground.
Then, Deng Chanyu sheathed her sword and stood up. Her breathing was slightly rapid, but her complexion was rosy and her eyes were bright.
She has only just entered the first stage of the mortal realm, Refining Essence into Qi.
It is truly remarkable that one can wield the Thunder Blade Technique taught by Chen Changsheng to this extent.
At this moment, the entire training ground was completely silent.
Only the faint aftershocks of thunder lingered in the air.
Deng Jiugong stood there dumbfounded, his face full of disbelief.
Although he was born an ordinary person, he was a master swordsman.
"This swordsmanship... is fierce, violent, and as swift as lightning."
"More importantly, it already contains a trace of the Daoist essence that draws upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to refine one's own vital energy!"
"Where is this still some kind of mortal martial arts?"
"My daughter has probably already touched the threshold of cultivating immortality!"
Deng Jiugong exclaimed inwardly.
It was obvious that the swordsmanship Deng Chanyu had just displayed was a true immortal combat technique.
Due to its own limitations, it could only unleash a rudimentary form.
Shocked, Deng Jiugong quickly looked towards Chen Changsheng.
There was no doubt whatsoever about his identity.
The fact that Chen Changsheng was able to transform Deng Chanyu to this extent in just a few months demonstrates the extraordinary nature of his master!
"Thank you so much, Immortal Master, for imparting such celestial sword techniques to my daughter!"
Deng Jiugong said excitedly, his face full of gratitude.
