Becoming a Saint From the Iron Armor Skill

Chapter 482: Chapter 240: Glimmering Spirit Armor

「Several days later.」

Zheng Martial Arts Hall, the True Disciples’ courtyard.

In a large garden, a green-robed figure darted about, their Body Technique light and swift, like a swallow in flight.

The Short Sword in her hand flashed continuously, leaving trails of light in its wake.

Wherever the light passed, it severed flower petals and blades of grass at the stem.

The green-robed figure moved faster and faster, stirring up sharp gusts of wind that sent the severed petals and leaves scattering into the air.

In an instant, the green-robed figure blurred into a series of afterimages. The sword light vanished, only to reappear in a flash.

The blade’s light seemed to move with extreme slowness, each movement clear and distinct as it slashed toward a few gently falling leaves.

Suddenly, ripples spread through the blade’s light.

The Sword Technique still appeared slow, yet the sword-wielder was nothing but a series of blurry afterimages.

This was clearly an illusion. The seemingly slow Sword Technique was, in fact, composed of dozens, even hundreds, of strikes.

The strikes were so fast they created an illusion. Dozens, even hundreds of Sword Techniques, were overlapping to create this seemingly slow-moving attack.

This was none other than the Phantom Sword Stance, formed when the Phantom Sword Technique reached the stage of Perfection.

By the time one perceives the Sword Technique, the Phantom Sword Stance has already delivered dozens, even hundreds, of strikes!

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

In a flash, the falling leaves were struck. They let out a series of faint pops and were instantly pulverized!

The afterimages converged, reforming into the green-robed figure who materialized a short distance away.

She held a Short Sword, her skin as fair as jade. Her devastatingly beautiful face glistened with a light sheen of sweat.

Her limpid eyes flashed with a sharp glint, matching the cold light glinting off the Short Sword in her hand.

It was none other than Mu Xiaowan!

The two sisters, Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang, stood on the walkway at the edge of the garden, both staring in a daze.

The two of them were known as the Peerless Twin Beauties of Linji City, and not just for their stunning looks.

The main reason was their exceptional Martial Arts Talent, which far surpassed that of other Martial Artists their age.

Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang had a high opinion of themselves and had always been proud.

In their view, they were the undisputed top Celestial Prides of Linji City’s younger generation, aside from an anomaly like Wang Xiongba with his Innate Copper Skin and Iron Bone.

Even Jiang Lang, hailed as the top martial artist of Linji City’s younger generation, didn’t necessarily have greater Martial Arts Talent than they did.

Therefore, Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang had always seen each other as rivals, secretly competing.

It wasn’t until a monstrous genius like Chen Cheng burst onto the scene that the two sisters were forced to concede.

’But how many people like Chen Cheng are there in this world?’

Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang remained very proud.

Now, however, Mu Xiaowan had once again left the two sisters deeply shaken.

The Martial Arts Talent Mu Xiaowan was displaying already far surpassed their own.

In less than two years, Mu Xiaowan had gone from a complete beginner to reaching Skin Grinding Realm Perfection, and had even developed the Phantom Sword Stance.

While such Martial Arts Talent wasn’t as monstrous as Chen Cheng’s, it was absolutely breathtaking!

Not only was Mu Xiaowan’s Martial Arts Talent exceptional, but her beauty, figure, and aura were also enough to topple nations.

If word of this were to get out, she would undoubtedly be hailed as the foremost beauty of Linji City’s younger generation.

Their title as the Peerless Twin Beauties would pale in comparison to her!

Comparisons are odious. At this moment, Shen Qingyao’s and Shen Qingshuang’s emotions were naturally a complicated mix!

Fortunately, Mu Xiaowan was much like Chen Cheng, focused only on her Cultivation of the Martial Dao and with no thought of seeking the limelight.

’Perhaps no one in the world will ever even notice Mu Xiaowan’s existence!’

’But then again, who can remain obscure forever?’

Chen Cheng had always been discreet, deliberately hiding his strength, but after a single trip out of the city with a Demon-slaying Team, his talent was revealed for all to know.

Now, the title of the top martial artist of Linji City’s younger generation no longer belonged to Jiang Lang, but to Chen Cheng, a Purple-clothed Guard of the Demon Suppression Department!

Mu Xiaowan had only been cultivating for a short time, so it was natural that she remained unknown.

But with her rate of cultivation, it was only a matter of time before she became a top-tier genius, perhaps even rivaling the True Disciples of the Major Sects.

The moment she made her debut, she would surely astound everyone!

"Senior Sister Qingyao, Senior Sister Qingshuang, you’re here?"

Seeing Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang, Mu Xiaowan sheathed her Short Sword and broke into a smile.

"Sigh..." Shen Qingyao sighed softly. "Xiaowan, your Martial Arts Talent is truly heaven-defying! You’re so much stronger than I am!"

Mu Xiaowan walked up and warmly linked arms with her, saying humbly, "Senior Sister Qingyao, you’re a Bone Forging Realm expert. Don’t make fun of a little nobody like me from the Skin Grinding Realm!"

"I’m not making fun of you." Shen Qingyao shook her head and said seriously, "It took me nearly three years to develop the Frost Snow Sword Stance.

You developed the Phantom Sword Stance twice as fast as I did.

"At this rate, in a few years, I’ll be the one calling you Senior Sister Mu!"

"Haha, how could that be possible?"

Mu Xiaowan chuckled. "Senior Sister Qingyao, you and Senior Sister Qingshuang will comprehend your own Realm soon, won’t you?

I’ve only just begun to grasp the Phantom Sword Stance. Every time I use it, I can only create a few dozen phantoms. I’m still a long way from reaching Perfection with it.

Let alone comprehending a Realm."

"That’s true." Shen Qingyao nodded and smiled. "I’ll have to train diligently so you don’t catch up to me.

"That way, you’ll have to call me Senior Sister for the rest of your life!"

Mu Xiaowan replied cheerfully, "Yes, Senior Sister Qingyao!"

Shen Qingyao grinned. "No need for such formalities, Junior Sister Xiaowan!"

Beside them, Shen Qingshuang suddenly let out a soft cough, seemingly displeased that Mu Xiaowan had only addressed Shen Qingyao as "Senior Sister."
