The Fake Sword Immortal: flashy sword techniques, beautiful, finely crafted swords, and graceful, elegant movements.
The Real Sword Immortal: One punch shatters the crust of the earth, sending tens of thousands of tons of magma gushing forth. He stirs the boundless deep sea into a raging tempest, while invisible ripples surge through the void and shatter ten thousand swords.
Everyone: “We agreed to a sword duel. Why are you using your fists?”
After Shen Lang punches a hole in the void and shatters ten thousand swords amid their mournful cries, he calmly takes out the sword he has been carrying all this time without even drawing it, strikes a pose, and lets it ring out as he thrusts. “Who says I don't use a sword?”
This is the story of a Sword Immortal who only knows the basic thrust, relies entirely on his fists, and still likes to carry a sword around to look the part.
