What happens in Chapter 179 of "Inverse Sword Mad God"? 179: Chapter 178: Lin Xiaoyou? 179: Chapter 178: Lin Xiaoyou? Elder Duanmu and others furrowed their brows... Read on to find out!

179: Chapter 178: Lin Xiaoyou? 179: Chapter 178: Lin Xiaoyou? Elder Duanmu and others furrowed their brows slightly. The martial technique used by Lin Xuan indeed closely resembled that of Cang Bao. If the Cang Family insisted on not letting go, the matter would probably become very troublesome. Who would’ve thought that Lin Xuan would sneer in disdain, “Your Cang Family’s martial arts?” “What’s the name of your Cang Family’s martial arts?” “Hmph, playing the fool! Of course, it’s the Seven-layered Thunder Blade. Don’t think you can fool us by changing it to Sword Shadows—we can still recognize it!” the elders of the Cang Family sneered coldly. “The Seven-layered Thunder Blade, you say? So, are you suggesting you can only condense up to seven blade shadows?” Lin Xuan asked in a deep voice. “Nonsense, everyone knows this kind of thing!” The Great Elder of Cang Family snorted coldly. After hearing that, the corners of Lin Xuan’s mouth lifted in a smirk. The elders of the Cang Family felt alarmed inside, a bad premonition creeping into their mind, but they didn’t believe Lin Xuan could prove anything. Even the surrounding martial artists wore curious expressions; they did not understand why Lin Xuan was so composed. “Everyone, what I used was clearly the Nine Heavens Sword Shadow, nothing like your Seven-layered Thunder Blade.” “Nonsense, what Nine Heavens Sword Shadow? We’ve never heard of it before!” “You thief, stop your sophistry!” an elder from the Cang Family yelled loudly. “Whether it’s sophistry or not will be clear at a glance!” Lin Xuan’s gaze sharpened, and the aura around him gradually became more fierce. Behind him, longsword phantoms began to emerge and line up. The crowd concentrated their gaze, and their eyes soon widened in shock. “Five of them, just like before!” “No, seven shadows, he actually condensed seven shadows!” “I’m afraid even the Cang Family has few who can condense seven Sword Shadows!” The group of martial artists, as if gone mad, exclaimed again and again. The faces of the elders of the Cang Family turned dark, a look of seeing a ghost flashing across their expressions. “Impossible, how could he condense seven Sword Qis! He’s only at the Spirit Sea Third Layer Heaven!” an elder from the Cang Family said with a ferocious face. Yet, what shocked them even more was still to come. After the seven Sword Shadows appeared, Lin Xuan did not stop, but instead, his Spiritual Power revolved again. The eighth Sword Shadow flickered into existence, visible to all present. “Oh, heavens, what am I seeing! The eighth Sword Shadow!” “Isn’t the Seven-layered Thunder Blade only supposed to have seven shadows? Why is there an eighth one appearing!” “Could it be that what he said is actually true? It’s not the Seven-layered Thunder Blade, but the Nine Heavens Sword Shadow?” The surrounding martial artists debated amongst themselves, and by now, they had almost entirely believed. When the ninth Sword Shadow appeared behind Lin Xuan, everyone was convinced. Lin Xuan was demonstrating his own martial technique, the Nine Heavens Sword Shadow! The faces of the Cang Family’s elders turned black, their eyes locked onto Lin Xuan like those of a starving wolf. Damn it, what kind of secret technique did he possess! The group of elders roared inside. They did not know how Lin Xuan managed to condense nine Sword Shadows, but they knew that if the Cang Family grasped this method, their Seven-layered Thunder Blade would reach a new level. And at that time, the status of the Cang Family wouldn’t be limited to dominion over Qing Province—they might very well enter the top echelon of forces within Xia Country. All of this could be achieved as long as they captured Lin Xuan! “Humph, it’s just an eye-blocking technique, now obediently come back with me!” The Great Elder of Cang Family sneered nastily and suddenly made a move. Boom! Like a volcanic eruption, a wave of Spiritual Power blasted the surrounding martial artists away. A massive hand of Thunder and Lightning, blotting out the sky, reached for Lin Xuan. “You dare!” Elder Duanmu, furious, waved his sleeve and met the attack. When Soul Fusion Realm experts clashed, the momentum was astounding, and with just one exchange, martial artists within a kilometer collapsed to the ground, exhausted. Just as a great battle was about to erupt, a cold snort came from the horizon. “Hmph, I dare you to lay a hand on a friend of Ten Thousand Treasure Tower!” A flash of intense light collided in the space between Elder Duanmu and the Great Elder of the Cang Family. That power was exceptionally robust, yet extremely gentle, and instantly separated the two combatants. With a flash, three elderly figures appeared before the crowd. Two elders, one dressed in red and the other in white, were flanked by a hunchbacked old man. Elder Duanmu and the numerous elders of the Cang Family were all cautiously watching the three individuals in the center of the scene. “It turns out to be a fellow daoist from the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower, Duanmu offers his respects.” On the other side, the elders of the Cang Family also performed a ceremonial bow, as they dared not clash with the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower head-on. The Cang Family was merely a large family from Qing Province, whereas the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower was a major power in Xia Country; the two were not on the same level at all. “I wonder why the three of you have come…” To pay respects to the three elders. Before the Great Elder of the Cang Family could finish his sentence, Lin Xuan quickly called out. The red and white elders looked at Lin Xuan with a smile, “Lin Xuan, you haven’t been injured, have you?” “Lin… Xuan?” Everyone was dumbfounded, with the elders of the Cang Family frozen in shock! Lin Xuan actually had connections with the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower, and it seemed to be no ordinary relationship! Who on earth was he? Why were so many people protecting him? The elders of the Cang Family couldn’t understand, but they knew that their plan to capture Lin Xuan was likely to fall through. “Regarding the matter of Lin Xuan’s ‘Nine Heavens Sword Shadow,’ this old man can testify that it is indeed his own martial arts,” said the hunchbacked elder from the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower indifferently. “Since Elder Gu has spoken, it must be true,” the Great Elder of the Cang Family thought desperately, but he was powerless to do otherwise. He didn’t dare to oppose the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower openly, but he wasn’t going to give up on capturing Lin Xuan! “Let’s go!” The Great Elder of the Cang Family waved his sleeve, leading the Cang Family members away. Many elders gritted their teeth as they looked towards Lin Xuan, their malicious intent clear. However, Lin Xuan was completely unafraid, as the Cang Family wouldn’t dare make a move with the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower present. And in a few days, even without the protection of the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower, he would not fear the Cang Family. That was because he and the people from the Lin Family of Sword Pond Prefecture would inevitably meet, and by then, his other identity would also be revealed. At that time, the Cang Family’s elders would probably not dare to do anything to him. After the Cang Family members had left, the three elders from the Ten Thousand Treasure Tower looked at Lin Xuan with beaming smiles. “Lin Xuan, don’t forget our agreement!” “Please rest assured, elders, Lin Xuan will not forget, and also thanks to the elders for your rescue!” Lin Xuan said respectfully. “Hehe, you make too much of it,” laughed the three elders. After a brief exchange, they left. “Xuan’er, let’s go back,” Elder Duanmu said. “Yes.” A cloud enveloped everyone, whisking them away from the area. Only a group of martial artists remained, constantly discussing the event. Certainly, Lin Xuan’s name would spread throughout Ice and Snow City in a few days. In the Southern District of Ice and Snow City, there was an Ice and Snow Garden, where all the buildings were cast from cold ice. In one of the halls inside, many people stood – they were disciples from the Xuantian Sect. Elder Duanmu sat in the center, with other elders of the sect on both sides. Elder Xue also sat among them, but his expression was somewhat unnatural. Zheng Jun stood among the crowd, his head lowered, not daring to look at Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan recounted in a grave voice the events that transpired after entering the Blood-colored Palace’s gates, of course, omitting certain details and important information. He didn’t mention a word about the Great Dragon Sword Seal and Shen Jingqiu. “Are you saying there’s a secret place beneath the Blood-colored Palace?” “Is that black robed man truly from the Netherworld Hall?” “I fear it won’t be too peaceful…” Elder Duanmu and the others had grim expressions, unable to stay calm with any of the news. “Xuan’er, go and rest. In five days, we will visit the Wenxue Sect.”
