"This is … the suppression of Sword Intent?"
Enduring the pain from his injuries, He Yan stood up.
As a genius of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and a core disciple of the sect, he immediately understood that this was a situation where the Sword Intent that he had painstakingly cultivated had been crushed by someone else in all aspects.
He cultivated the Supreme Sword Intent of the Sword Pavilion.
He was actually crushed by someone else. What was going on?
"Ye Lian, it's you?" Ye Lian's face darkened.
Among the core disciples, only he and Ye Lian had come for the assessment. Could it be that the other party had cultivated some kind of powerful sword intent, causing him to be far inferior to him?
Hurriedly turning his gaze to the side, he saw that the Sword Intent in the neighboring room seemed to have been suppressed, and it was frozen in the air as though a snake, not daring to move at all.
"It's not me … I can't take it anymore … Pfft!"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Lian also spat out a mouthful of blood, and the sword intent that filled the sky immediately dissipated.
He Yan's face paled, and his body trembled slightly.
Sword intent was a kind of concept. Some people had a low level of comprehension, while others had a high level of comprehension.
Li Bai was good at composing poems. Suffering from the An-Shi Rebellion, he had to go to the heavens and spend some time with the fairies before he could compose a poem that worried about the country and its people. Then, he wrote, "Blood smears the wild grass, the jackals and wolves wear their tassels." Those with low realms could only shout, "F * ck me, what a beast!"
Of course, this was just a metaphor. True Sword Intent was similar to the bloodline of saint beasts. The weaker ones would automatically feel fear when encountering the stronger ones!
How could he fight under the suppression of his bloodline?
He and Ye Lian were the elites of the Sword Firmament Pavilion, but someone had actually used Sword Intent to suppress them. They didn't even have the strength to resist. Just what was going on?
Who had this kind of ability?
"I don't believe that anyone can surpass me by so much!"
Gritting his teeth, He Yan roared once more, and his Sword Intent surged forth once more.
Bang!
This time, before the white glow could even form, Zhang Xuan could already feel a massive sword piercing through his mind. As long as he dared to resist, the sword would cleave him down and kill him!
Huala!
Cold sweat broke out on He Yan's forehead, and he didn't dare to move.
At this moment, he finally understood that the bit of Sword Insight he'd comprehended was simply like a candle compared to the sun!
They were not on the same level!
If he were to force himself to compare, he would only be inviting humiliation!
When did such a powerful expert appear in the Sword Firmament Pavilion?
Even those monsters among the core disciples wouldn't be able to do this …
…
The same scene happened in the other rooms.
In an instant, all the candidates in the Sword God Hall felt their Sword Wills being suppressed, and they were unable to move.
Miserable cries rang out.
…
Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, Library of Sword Wisdom!
Piles of books filled the entire house.
Elder Wei sorted them out for many days and finally sorted them out.
"Elder Wei, thank you for your hard work. This will make it much easier to investigate!" An old man walked in.
The other elder of the Hall of Sword Wisdom, Jiang Yuan.
"Yeah, all of the books in the Sword Wisdom Hall are the sword intent left behind by our predecessors! Everyone's talent and abilities are different, so the Sword Intent they comprehend is also different. It is indeed very difficult to sort them out! "
Elder Wei stretched his back lazily and smiled bitterly. "Fortunately, it's done … However, this is the only time. If I have to reorganize everything, I might as well commit suicide!"
"The Sword Intent is sealed within the books. If the juniors wish to learn it, they just have to comprehend it carefully, and they will be able to comprehend the prowess of their predecessors. It's indeed convenient, but there are too many types of Sword Intent, and if we don't sort them out properly, it could easily lead to an invasion of the aura of the predecessors.
Elder Jiang Yuan nodded. "You have indeed put in a lot of effort into sorting out the Sword Intent, not to mention that you even labeled the types and sword arts on them. You have contributed greatly to this!"
"Indeed. I feel like I'm going blind …"
Elder Wei said. "Take a look at them first. I'll go rest for a moment …"
"Un!"
Elder Jiang Yuan nodded. Just as he was about to say something, his face suddenly froze.
Hualala!
The sound of books boiling could be heard. Elder Wei and Elder Jiang immediately turned their gazes over, only to see the books that they had just sorted out rising into the air, as if summoned by something. Surges of Sword Intent surged into the air, producing the reverberations of swords clashing with one another.
Elder Wei's body stiffened, and he felt as if he was on the verge of tears.
It took me so much effort to sort them out, but why are you all jumping into the air?
Hualala!
Before he could recover from his shock, all of the books bowed in a single direction, as if commoners meeting their king!
Pilipala!
The bowing caused the tidied books to pile up once more. In fact, due to the impact, the bookshelves even fell to the ground, creating a huge mess in the room.
"The heck!"
Elder Wei's body swayed weakly, and he nearly spurted a mouthful of blood.
Are you messing with me?
It took me so much effort to sort them out, but what am I supposed to do now?
"It seems like … someone has comprehended a higher tier of Sword Intent! The Sword Intent sealed in these Sword Intents are paying their respects to me! "
Elder Jiang Yuan exclaimed.
"I know … But it just so happened that they came …" Elder Wei scratched his head in frustration.
Looking at the messy bookshelves and books on the floor, Elder Jiang Yuan sighed helplessly. "Why don't we reorganize them? Forget it … I think you should just kill yourself! "
"…" Elder Wei.
…
In front of the massive gates of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, two figures were floating in the air.
They were two elders in their fifties.
The one on the left was dressed in a luxurious robe, and there was a sharp surge of Sword Qi emanating from his glabella.
The one on the right had a round face, and he had an amiable smile on his face.
The space in the Azure was extremely stable, such that even a Pseudo Immortal like Elder Lu Yun was unable to fly. Yet, the two of them were able to float in the air with ease.
"Elder He, you have been here for more than thirty years now. Have you comprehended the Sword Intent left behind by our founder?" the round-faced elder asked with a smile.
"How can it be that easy to comprehend our founder's Sword Intent?"
Elder He, who was dressed in a luxurious robe on the left, shook his head. "The only reason I'm here is to make use of our founder's Sword Intent to suppress my mind so that I can further comprehend the Sword Intent."
"Indeed. No one is a match for our founder's talent …"
The round-faced elder nodded. However, before he could finish his words, he suddenly froze in place. He hurriedly raised his head to look at the massive sword before him.
Boom!
The massive sword was trembling non-stop, as if it would fly away at any moment. Even the massive gates that were tens of thousands of meters tall were beginning to succumb to the pressure.
Elder He narrowed his eyes in alarm.
This massive sword was the symbol of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. If it were to collapse, the other five sects would surely laugh themselves to death.
"It's Sword Intent … The Sword Intent left behind by our founder seems to have sensed something …"
Elder He clenched his fists tightly as he looked at the massive sword.
"What can our founder's Sword Intent sense?"
The round-faced elder was taken aback. He turned his gaze over once more, and his body suddenly stiffened. "This is bad …"
Huala!
As soon as he said those words, the massive sword seemed to have lost its support. Unable to withstand the pressure any longer, it collapsed abruptly.
Naturally, such a massive sword was not a real sword. Rather, it was made up of rocks, bricks, and the like. The reason why it had been able to stand for several thousand years without collapsing was due to the Sword Intent left behind by the founder!
At this moment, the Sword Intent was trembling intensely, as if it would burst out of the sword at any moment. It was as if a rock had lost its support.
Hong long long!
With the collapse of the massive sword, the massive gates also caved in. Innumerable rocks fell from the sky and smashed into the ground, creating huge craters one after another.
The Sword Intent contained within the massive sword was finally freed from its shackles. Sou! It vanished without a trace.
"What in the world happened?"
Looking at the rubble and the smoke rising from the ground, the two elders felt as if they had gone insane.
The majestic Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion that all disciples were proud of … had been destroyed just like that?
…
"It still doesn't work …"
Zhang Xuan tried to recall all of the Sword Intents that he had experienced so far in his mind. Looking at the white streak of light before him, he felt so stifled that he could explode on the spot.
His disciple had only learned a single move in less than a night, and yet, he was already able to create a distance of 499 meters. On the other hand, he was known as a genius swordsman back on the Master Teacher Continent, but here, he was unable to even create a single meter …
How shameful!
He felt so stifled that he felt as if he did not want to live anymore.
"I guess I'll just have to leave it at that …"
Zhang Xuan sighed helplessly. Just as he was about to retract his sword, his vision suddenly blurred. Something seemed to have shot right into his mind, threatening to tear his consciousness apart.
Hu!
At this moment, a golden book flew out from the Library of Heaven's Path.
Padah!
The thing that was charging toward him was sealed within it.
"My Book of Heaven's Path …"
Zhang Xuan's vision darkened, but he didn't faint.
He had obtained this book from Dan Xiaotian, and it could be considered as his greatest trump card in the Azure. In order to recover from his injuries, he would rather fight in the dueling ring and drink the Dongxu Gourd's bathwater than use it …
Yet, at this very moment, it suddenly came out to seal something … What a waste!
Zhang Xuan's heart ached so much that he nearly stopped breathing.
Did you have to go so far?
He had thought that he would be able to teach the sect leader and elders a lesson with the Ethereal Token of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. However, without the Book of Heaven's Path, they would not be able to live to see the sun tomorrow!
While the Ethereal Token could conceal one's identity, this was a regional network. It should not be too difficult for the network administrator to check one's ID!
"What the heck is this? How dare you waste my treasure!"
Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth furiously. He quickly retracted his sword qi and flipped open the Book of Heaven's Path.
There was a pure strand of Sword Intent within the book, reminiscent of a goldfish that had entered a fish tank.
"Is this all you've got?"
Zhang Xuan's heart ached even more.
It was already frustrating enough that he hadn't even reached a meter in the end. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that his greatest trump card would be wasted on such a crappy thing...
"This Sword Intent is similar to the one harnessed by the massive sword in the Mountain Gate!"
Zhang Xuan sighed deeply. He took a closer look at the Book of Heaven's Path, and he felt a sense of déjà vu.
Just as he was about to extend his finger toward the Book of Heaven's Path, he suddenly heard urgent knocking on his door.
"Brother Zhang Xuan, are you alright?"
Zhang Xuan turned around and saw the door shaking non-stop, as if Elder Lu Yun and Dan Xiaotian would barge in at any moment if he did not step out.
"I'm fine!"
Seeing that they were in such a hurry, Zhang Xuan could only give up on observing the situation and walk out of the room.
