The mont the words fell.
Jian Lao pointed with one hand, and a mysterious true intent instantly entered into Su Tu’s heart and spirit.
The next mont, Su Tu seed to freeze entirely.
In his eyes, he saw a single sword, that sword cleaved the heavens, destroyed life, covered the entire cosmos, and obliterated all Dao!
A solitary sword fell, all beings disappeared, slaughtering everything, be it Dao or Martial, gods and demons alike were silent, all stained with blood under that sword, trembling!
Su Tu was deeply shaken by this sword intent.
"Don’t worry, little girl, this move is to shock him a bit, at least letting him feel that our Dao lineage is still strong."
"He won’t be able to comprehend this sword intent, he’ll snap out of it soon!"
Watching Su Tu fall into enlightennt, the celestial elegance of Jian Lao suddenly took a whimsical turn.
"Tsk, back then you pulled this trick on too."
Xiao spoke helplessly, long ago she, to clarify the obsession of Old Zhou, sought traces of the Heaven-Reaching Dao lineage through subtle clues and felt this remnant spirit in a dilapidated Sword Tomb.
After that, the remnant spirit attached itself to her.
Back then, the remnant spirit also used this trick to make Xiao think he was so great figure.
Even insisted on taking the remnant spirit to confront the top echelons of the Federation, to ask why her master wasn’t permitted to reopen the Heaven-Reaching Dao lineage.
Only then was the true nature of the remnant spirit revealed.
The remnant spirit was associated with the killing intent of the Immortal Slaying Sword, carrying a trace of it, able to recreate that presence, but was rely a facade, good for intimidation, not much for actual combat.
He had the aura of the Heaven-Reaching Dao lineage, but according to Jian Lao, although the aura was of the sa origin, the era he was severed from was ages before the Federation’s existence.
All these years, he acted as an encyclopedia, staying by Xiao’s side, and aiding her quite a bit.
Su Tu wanted to apprentice, and required his help, to strengthen his status, today he reused the old trick.
"Hehe, old tricks aren’t bad if they’re useful."
Imagine, a celestial, sage-like old man with a white beard making cheeky remarks — Xiao expressed it was truly an eyesore...
"Aren’t you afraid of screwing up?"
Xiao said, "My little junior brother, with incredible talent, stirred the [Emperor] title, which symbolizes the peak of talent,
what if he comprehends that sword intent, then what? You’d lose even your intimidating skills."
"How’s that possible, this sword intent has existed for a period longer than even the Federation’s, severed by that one personally, although used for teaching, it’s not..."
"Damn!!!"
At this mont, Jian Lao, who was gleefully speaking, suddenly had his expression change, spitting out a true na, his entire figure dimming slightly in an instant.
All around, the halted everything returned to normal.
He looked incredulously at the young man before him with closed eyes, his whole spirit body flickering.
"Indeed... indeed screwed it up!!"
"What happened?" Xiao got a bit anxious too; after all, Jian Lao had traveled the stars with her for years, considering him half a ntor wasn’t an exaggeration.
"Your little junior... really comprehended that sword intent!!"
Jian Lao’s voice carried a hint of sobbing.
Next mont!!
Su Tu, initially with closed eyes, suddenly opened them wide.
Woosh!!!
An unstoppable sharpness exploded around him, with faint glimrs of a cold light surrounding him.
A sword cleaved from his heart and spirit, and then...
Woosh!!!
In the sky above, clouds surged and suddenly shattered apart, instantaneously creating a massive breach; from a distance, it seed as though the sky had been torn asunder by a sword!
"This sword intent!! Has a Sword Dao Grandmaster co here!!"
"Which Sword Sect master is swinging their sword here?"
The one who discharged this sword, their Martial Arts Cultivation was at least in the Seed Dao, the strongest current fighting force able to enter the Ancestor Star, and this sword skill must be at the highest level, Independent Self, to achieve using heart and spirit to wield a sword and cleave open the sky clouds to such extent.
In the training camp, every instructor looked to the sky, stepping into the void, eyes cautious, for there were many prodigies here now, and should any mishap occur, they couldn’t afford it. This sword intent condensed yet did not dissipate, with an endless killing aura.
Especially since the [Emperor] title holder is right below, there can’t be a single mistake here.
Little did they know, the one who had done all this was indeed the [Emperor] title holder.
Su Tu, at this mont, was joyfully looking at everything he had caused outside the window. He hadn’t expected comprehending this sword intent would provide such a massive boost.
This boost wasn’t physical, but let Su Tu’s heart and spirit gain an external lethality.
One must know, while Su Tu’s heart and spirit were strong, his realm was too low, unable to use his heart and spirit to kill enemies, often relying on enemies entering his personal domain out of ignorance or using [Error] to alter their existence.
But now, the situation had changed, and after this sword intent carved itself into Su Tu’s eyes.
A system notification instantly popped up.
[You have acquired Immortal Dao Divine Power: Immortal Slaying Sword!]
[Immortal Slaying Sword (Initial Tier): 0/100000]
[Successfully acquired Immortal Dao Divine Power, Skill Points 5]
He had acquired a brand-new type of skill, Immortal Dao Divine Techniques, which required combining immortal power and heart and spirit to cast. Su Tu could gather immortal power quickly, and this divine technique compensated for his heart and spirit’s inability to actively slay.
More importantly, the appearance of the Immortal Slaying Sword showed that Ancient Skills could indeed be imprinted on the skill panel.
Furthermore, Immortal Dao Divine Techniques actually directly provided five skill points, which would be crucial for his skill advancent later!
This thrilled Su Tu imnsely.
He now looked at Jian Lao with a few more glimrs of respect.
"Thank you, Jian Lao!" Su Tu cupped his fists and spoke, his voice solemn.
But Jian Lao now forced a smile, saying, "No need to thank , this is your destiny..."
Though he said this, Xiao, who understood Jian Lao, knew that if Su Tu wasn’t here, he’d probably be crying at this mont.
"Alright, Jian Lao has always been generous. Now we should deal with formally joining the Dao lineage business!"
"Just boil the raw rice into cooked rice!"
As Xiao spoke, she drew Su Tu’s attention.
"Master fears you’ll bear the karma, Li Hu listens too much, but I’m different; I’ve always been a rebellious disciple!"
"If he doesn’t take you, we have ways to get you into the Heaven-Reaching Dao lineage!"
"Only by joining the Dao lineage will everything be right and proper!"
In truth, if possible, Su Tu still wished to apprentice under Elder Zhou, but given the current situation, Elder Zhou’s life must be prioritized above all else.
After saying this, Xiao glanced at Sword Elder.
Sword Elder imdiately understood, and spoke authoritatively: "All who strive upwards may enter my gate!"
"Young man ahead, if you are willing, I shall accept you on behalf of the sages of the Dao Lineage!"
"Do tell, are you willing?"
Sword Elder’s voice was solemn and dignified, as if in the mont he spoke, countless pairs of eyes pierced through space to land upon Su Tu.
Su Tu finally understood the aning behind Xiao’s phrase about "making the raw rice into cooked rice."
It ant letting Sword Elder accept him in the na of the Tongtian Dao Lineage, thus allowing him to bypass Zhou Wuliang and directly join the Heaven-Reaching Dojo.
Although Sword Elder’s origin preceded the Tongtian Dao Lineage, their essence was the sa; this approach might be viable.
"I am willing!"
Su Tu clasped his hands, performing the disciple salute. He would first enter the Tongtian Gate, then choose a teacher; he now understood Xiao’s intention.
Su Tu bowed to perform the apprenticeship ritual, as Xiao had already prepared tea, handing it to Su Tu.
He raised his hand, offering the tea.
Sword Elder was intangible and couldn’t touch the teacup; the final step was rely ceremonial.
But unexpectedly...
Just as Su Tu offered the tea.
Whoosh~
The clear tea in the cup suddenly evaporated and dispersed, as if so unseen presence had drained it.
Subsequently...
A grand, majestic voice that only Su Tu could hear slowly resonated.
"The ceremony is complete!"
"Henceforth, you shall be my disciple!"
The voice was thunderous, causing Su Tu’s True Spirit to tremble, with lotuses blooming upon his Heart and Spirit, as if in reflection.
anwhile, Zhou Wuliang, far away in the North Sea, suddenly stood up.
He seed to sense sothing, a look of disbelief and bewildernt manifested in his eyes.
"What happened?"
The man shrouded in black mist hurriedly questioned.
Only to hear Zhou Wuliang speak with a hint of astonishnt in his tone: "I feel sothing unknown in my heart..."
"It seems, within my Dao Lineage, a.... sage has appeared in the world?"
He spoke hesitantly, uncertain, as this was a vague perception among Dao Lineage inheritances.
Zhou Wuliang felt, in a mysterious way, the ergence of a highly esteed presence, seemingly abrupt.
This left Zhou Wuliang sowhat perplexed.
"Could it be... my master really was right back then!!!"
"If so..."
Zhou Wuliang murmured softly, an indescribable fla igniting in his eyes, his once-dead heart stirred anew.
He quickly stood up, walking towards the depth of the inner chamber, respectfully opening an ancient to.
The to was exceedingly old, emanating the aura of ages.
"What is this?" The man shrouded in black mist asked curiously.
With a hint of reminiscence, Zhou Wuliang replied: "Years ago, our master told us the Tongtian Dao Lineage existed since ancient tis, we are rely fragnts of the true inheritance, us sages possess the power to transcend all!
I just felt a ripple, a ripple from the Dao Lineage, as if a sage of incredibly high standing has appeared!"
"This roster is the treasure of my Dao Lineage, on it are recorded the nas of the most ancient Tongtian Dao Lineage sages, but..."
Zhou Elder opened the to, only to see blank pages, without any inscriptions.
"Empty?"
"Yes, master said only when a sage appears in the world would their nas manifest here, he had always been waiting for nas to appear; he said one of our existences’ anings is to wait."
"He didn’t wait until then, but perhaps, I’ve waited...’
Zhou Wuliang’s voice held excitent, he solemnly flipped through the to, every page blank.
The man shrouded in black mist initially intended to mock, but upon seeing the new wrinkles appearing daily on Zhou Wuliang’s face, he held back.
The Dao Lineage was no longer, and the followers still indulged in that dream-like illusion, amidst the great calamity, True Monarchs no longer appeared in the world, those existences wouldn’t reappear in this realm, the man shrouded in black mist thought.
Yet suddenly...
Buzz!!
Golden light erupted from the to, illuminating the inner chamber.
The man shrouded in black mist spun around in surprise, seeing the golden light upon the to continually surging, as if etching sothing.
Zhou Wuliang felt as though his breath was about to halt, not daring to move for fear a slight shift might stop the surging light.
Finally, as the golden light dissipated, a na slowly erged upon the to.
Zhou Wuliang was overwheld with excitent, recalling his master once saying any na appearing on this roster wielded the power to suppress everything.
If true, perhaps he might uncover the truth of the Dao Lineage’s downfall back then!!
The man shrouded in black mist hurriedly leaned forward, and Zhou Wuliang’s gaze settled together.
Afterwards, both faces froze, stunned.
"Do you still retain that mory?"
"Is this na a coincidence, or sothing else?"
Zhou Wuliang looked at the man shrouded in black mist with a sowhat dumbfounded expression.
"Enough with that number nonsense right now, will you!!" The man shrouded in black mist was just as bewildered.
"Could this really be a coincidence?"
"If it is a coincidence, it’s an awfully uncanny one!!"
They saw a sentence written on the to in ancient script.
Sect Leader’s Direct Disciple: Su Tu!!
"Has he beco my ancestor master?"
