In Murim settings like this story, there’s usually a jian (sword), which is double-edged and designed for piercing. Another is a dao (blade, or saber), which is single-edged and designed for slashing. Think of them like a rapier and a katana. Both are technically swords, but one is for piercing and the other is for slashing.
With that differences, thus the difference in their combat arts.
