The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings Chapter 1581 - 1581 s 1528—1529 Old Friends from the Past

Chapter 1581: Chapters 1528—1529 Old Friends from the Past, Harmonious Inheritance_2 Chapter 1581: Chapters 1528—1529 Old Friends from the Past, Harmonious Inheritance_2 Among these people, as fellow cultivators of the Heterodox Alliance, even if they were not from the sa faction, they still had a lot of understanding about each other. Thus, they were also clear about the strength of Senior Brother Cangyang.

Their Senior Brother Cangyang hailed from the Demonic Way and cultivated the Seven Kills Demon Sword. Although he was unmatched in slaughter, he was not the most top-tier existence, and there existed a considerable gap between him and Yu Yiyao of the Great World.

When he first entered the Myriad Laws Realm, Senior Brother Cangyang perford as usual, his strength not showing an overwhelming advantage even when defeating an opponent. There was no resounding victory that completely crushed his adversaries.

However, when he discovered a legacy left by a Taoist Monarch which was also discovered by many others, despite being the first to find it, the opportunity to inherit it in the Myriad Laws Realm was determined by strength rather than a first-co, first-served basis.

Therefore, even though he found the legacy, others imdiately attacked to snatch it away from him. When he demonstrated impressive strength, they conspired to join forces and kill him.

One could say that at that ti, Cangyang was in a dire situation, seemingly destined to die against the coalition of powerful enemies.

But as the saying goes, heaven never seals off all exits. Resolved to waste the opportunity and destroy the legacy rather than let others have it, he unexpectedly assimilated the legacy, found it completely compatible with himself, and his strength surged dramatically, allowing him to obliterate his opponents.

“Legacy, compatibility? Let think,” Zhao Baiyang suddenly recalled an ancient incident from ten thousand years ago.

He had always been contemplating the possible intersections between Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing and the Demonic Way, or more specifically, any connections with the branch of the Demonic Way known as Seven Kills from which Cangyang originated.

Suddenly, he rembered a long-forgotten event. At that ti, the Divine Land World had not yet revived, and ancient powers had not returned, not to ntion the ergence of True Immortals.

Back then, Longevity Taoist Monarch was just rising. He had only just stepped out of a small town in Border County and ascended to the stage of the Great Ming Empire, becoming a figure of note in the martial arts world.

At that ti, the branches of the Demonic Way had not yet been unified by Xue Wuheng, with each branch acting independently, and none recognizing Xue Wuheng’s commands. The Sword Master of the Seven Kills branch received an invitation from the Fengdu Ghost Emperor, and the two of them joined forces to ambush the newly erging Pei Xuanjing.

On that day, these two top figures of the martial arts world were slain by Pei Xuanjing alone, who even took possession of the Sword Master’s Divine Weapon, the Seven Kills Sword, which has since remained with the Shenxiao Sect.

According to what Xue Wuheng said at the ti, despite the Sword Master of Seven Kills perishing in battle against Pei Xuanjing, he bore no grudge towards him. Pei Xuanjing did not regard him as an enemy; instead, he recognized such an opponent as a true swordsman. He took the Seven Kills Sword and told Xue Wuheng that if an exceptional disciple from the Seven Kills branch should erge, they were welco to co to the Shenxiao Sect to claim the sword.

Later, when Xue Wuheng unified the Demonic Way, he acknowledged that Cangyang, whom he believed would surpass himself, was the disciple the dying Sword Master had envisioned.

Of course, no matter how outstanding Cangyang was, he was insignificant compared to Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing. Pei Xuanjing had put the matter aside and left it to his disciple, Pang Hong, to handle.

Afterward, Cangyang fought Pang Hong many tis. Although he lost more than he won, he eventually earned Pang Hong’s acknowledgnt and retrieved the Divine Weapon, the Seven Kills Sword.

This was the connection Zhao Baiyang could think of between Cangyang and the Shenxiao Sect or even the Longevity Taoist Monarch.

“If that’s the case, then there is another explanation. Perhaps the origin of this legacy is based on the insights gained when Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing dueled with the Seven Kills Sword Master. He used these insights as a foundation to intentionally pass down his legacy,” Zhao Baiyang thought to himself.

Indeed, with the current strength of Longevity Taoist Monarch, the power of the Seven Kills Sword Master is hardly worth ntioning. Among the many opponents and enemies he had faced, Seven Kills was far from the top.

But let’s not forget, an opponent is always relative. When he dueled with the Seven Kills Sword Master, Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing was at a similar realm. At that ti, he fought alone against both the mighty Seven Kills Sword Master and the Fengdu Ghost Emperor, and even if he erged victorious, he paid a heavy price.

According to what Xue Wuheng, who arrived last, said personally, Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing was not truly unscathed at the ti. Otherwise, given his personality, he would never have said he didn’t even make a move when he t , only letting leave after a re test.

Moreover, his willingness to keep the Divine Weapon, the Seven Kills Sword, and his recognition of the Seven Kills Sword Master was enough to prove the significant impact that battle had on him.

Therefore, with his personality and all that he had learned, it would be effortless for him to expand on these insights and deduce sothing new.

If it had been before, it might not have co to light, but this ti, with many powerhouses appearing in the Myriad Laws Realm trial, it wouldn’t be strange for him to bring out this thing on a whim to find a successor.

It has to be said that Zhao Baiyang did have so understanding of Pei Xuanjing. With just a little information, he could guess Pei Xuanjing’s thoughts at the ti quite accurately.

However, what he didn’t know was that Pei Xuanjing’s decision wasn’t made on a whim, nor was it about casually finding a successor to pass on the legacy. After all, with the existence of the Taoist Academy, Pei Xuanjing could have easily found a successor without going to such lengths.

It was indeed the battle with the Seven Kills Sword Master that gave Pei Xuanjing a great harvest. At that ti, the pureness of the sword moves demonstrated by the Seven Kills Sword Master was a rare sight for Pei Xuanjing, a lone seeker, and provided him with significant reference.

Even when he later faced many opponents, among those Pei Xuanjing encountered, only the Swordsn from the Sword Sect surpassed Seven Kills Sword Master in the Sword Tao Realm, and not even all of the Sword Sect did so.

If one were to speak of the purity of the Sword Path, perhaps the Seven Kills Sword Master only lacked in cultivation realm. His sincerity in the Sword Path exceeded that of many powerful Sword Sect mbers. If it hadn’t been his misfortune to encounter , after the revival of the world, he might have had a chance of reaching the peak like Zhao Baiyang.

Over the years, Pei Xuanjing often reflected on his past and summarized his cultivation path and the opponents who had fallen to his hands.

And his Sword Tao Realm had reached an unfathomable level; even a casual extrapolation had pushed the Seven Kills Sword Path to a terrifying extent. However, due to the lack of a suitable candidate, Pei Xuanjing originally intended to seal away this legacy once and for all.

Thus, when he unintentionally learned from Pang Hong that a favorite disciple of the forr Seven Kills Sword Master was still alive and had co this far, Pei Xuanjing couldn’t help but entertain so ideas. He took out the legacy that he had intended to seal away to see how far Senior Brother Cangyang would go after obtaining it, and whether he could shine uniquely and spread the fa of the Seven Kills Sword Path throughout All Heavens, in place of his master.

Therefore, Senior Brother Cangyang’s acquisition of the legacy this ti was not an accident, but rather had Pei Xuanjing’s manipulation behind it.

Of course, Pei Xuanjing didn’t deliberately push things too far. He simply placed Senior Brother Cangyang within a certain range of the legacy, giving him so opportunity. Whether or not he could successfully obtain it was still up to his own fortuitous chance and luck.

After all, Pei Xuanjing wouldn’t just spoon-feed soone; even if he was to gift sothing, he would still rely on the recipient’s fate and opportune fortune. Who would have thought that Senior Brother Cangyang would have such luck, obtaining this legacy within such a short period and even using it to leap towards the Nine Heavens!
