After only ten rounds, Shi Feiyang first pierced Jiang Weiyu's wrist with a sword.

With a clang, the treasure sword fell to the ground, the sword having developed a spirit, it vibrated on the ground, stained with Jiang Weiyu's blood.

Jiang Weiyu stumbled back, Pan Xiuhu roared and fought desperately with Shi Feiyang, who struck him with a series of three swords, using the same move as before.

Pan Xiuhu felt a sharp pain in his throat, chest, and lower abdomen all at once, his mind went blank in an instant, feeling that his life had reached its end.

However, Shi Feiyang did not kill him, the sharp tip of the sword merely touched him lightly, cutting through his clothes but leaving his skin intact.

It was only that he concentrated his True Qi into a cone shape, pressed it into Pan Xiuhu's body, and sealed his acupoint; Pan Xiuhu's sword fell to the ground, he stumbled back and fell to his knees with a thump.

Holding his bleeding wrist with his left hand, Jiang Weiyu turned pale, "We've lost! Kill or scrape, at your disposal!"

"Why would I kill you?" said Shi Feiyang, "Bring out that Immortal Scripture Fragment and let me take a look."

Jiang Weiyu had no right to refuse, he glanced at Pan Xiuhu kneeling on the ground, his body stiff, unable to stand up, then turned and went back into the cave.

Shi Feiyang looked around at the scenery, evaluating the feng shui, nodding continuously, "Over here the clouds surge mesmerizingly, over there the Jade Pillar reaches the heavens, truly a treasure land of feng shui, not in the bustling market yet not too far, a quiet place amidst the chaos. Living here naturally would be wonderful, but for cultivation, it does not fully cut off external influences, your hearts can never truly be still."

Pan Xiuhu, full of remorse and resentment, speculated how this envoy from the Divine Dragon Sect would deal with him and his brother, but upon hearing these words, he suddenly seemed thoughtful.

They were heroes in the Martial Arts World, respected by many, whenever there was an issue, particularly in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions regarding Martial Arts, be it disputes or vendettas, they would be called upon to resolve it.

Ever since the two brothers obtained a secret manual from Mingyu Immortal Market and started practicing, thinking they were secluded from the world, they were, in fact, often sought after by friends from Jianghu for favors. Thus, they were always entangled in various issues, minor ones like an escort bureau being robbed asking them to retrieve it, major ones like a family being annihilated with survivors asking them to uphold justice.

They took pleasure in these... Now upon reflection, indeed it was a distraction from their spiritual path.

They resided in Jinting Mountain Jade Pillar Cave, thinking themselves as Immortals out of the secular dust, but in actuality, they were never away from the mortal world for a moment.

Using a mortal heart to pursue the Immortal Path, they had walked for many years, yet had not truly entered the path.

Seeing Pan Xiuhu thoughtful, Shi Feiyang knew he had taken in the words, which was somewhat surprising.

It was no wonder he was the one, in the end, able to join the Emei Sect in the original story, indeed he had some Wisdom Essence.

Soon, Jiang Weiyu came out with a Jade Box, "Here is the 'Purple Ying Immortal Scripture,' take it!"

Shi Feiyang opened the Jade Box, took out a scroll of cloth, and saw on it written "Great Five Ghost Swordsmanship," a Sword Refining Technique. According to this method, one could refine a set of Great Five Ghosts Flying Swords.

He scanned it quickly and imprinted the entire content in his mind, then chuckled lightly, "This is not the 'Purple Ying Immortal Scripture.'"

Both heroes from Wu were stunned, "How is this not the 'Purple Ying Immortal Scripture'? This is what we spent so much effort fighting over to retrieve."

"The 'Purple Ying Immortal Scripture' is a genuine Daoist secret manual of the Mysterious Sect, how could it contain such heretical content? You have been deceived. I have obtained thirteen fragments of the Immortal Scripture, and only two are real, the rest are fake! Alas, you were tricked," Shi Feiyang shook his head gently.

The Wu brothers looked at each other in dismay, unable to believe this truth.

Pan Xiuhu, unwilling to concede, wanted to question, but his throat seemed nailed shut, unable to make a sound.

Jiang Weiyu knew what he wanted to ask, "Could you please... Divine Envoy, show us what the real Immortal Scripture looks like? Just a glance, and we'll die without regrets!"

"It's not impossible, but I can only show you one page."

Shi Feiyang took out a cloth scroll he had prepared on his journey, imitating that of the Xiang River Five Heroes.

The material and handwriting were exactly the same, it detailed "Five Qi Jun Heaven Thunder."

This was a Thunder Skill, centered amidst the Heaven of the Ninth of Five, using one's own righteous Qi aligned with the heavenly pivot, mobilizing the righteous Qi of the five directions to form Heavenly Thunder, capable of subduing demons and being invincible.

After Jiang Weiyu and Pan Xiuhu saw it, they observed the difference in writing style from their Great Five Ghost Swordsmanship, and although it was not an Immortal Cultivation Secret Manual, they instantly recognized which was genuine and which was malevolent.

Shi Feiyang put the cloth scroll away, and as the brothers watched with envy, a bitter expression appeared on their faces.

Seeing such people courageous in advancement, yearning for the Immortal Path, Shi Feiyang always felt a sense of pity.

He asked them, "As I know, the Great Open Mountain Gate at Lu Mountain White Deer Cave, Fei Long Priestess is broadly accepting disciples. If you so desire to become Sword Immortals, why not go there to seek tutelage?"

Jiang Weiyu replied, "We have been there, but seeing their method of Sword Refining, it had some evil presence, even someone killing to refine a sword, we felt it wasn't the Righteous Path, and we sneaked back before officially taking her as our master. Because of this, we even provoked them to send people demanding justice, and we had to compensate significantly, even inviting a senior from Jianghu to mediate before they ceased pursuing the matter."

"Not bad, not bad, to be able to distinguish between good and evil under such circumstances, holding on to the Righteous Path in your hearts, otherwise most people would not bother about good or evil, start practicing first, and once on board the ship of thieves, they can never come down again."
