The sword intent could not be seen or touched, and the source of meaning contained within the sword intent could not be seen or touched either, but one could feel its existence.
With the sword intent of the "Absolute Yang Scarlet Scale Sword" as a link, the moment the sword intent that Tang Huan was tainted with resonated with the surrounding sword intent, Tang Huan sensed that from the terrifying sword intent, she could feel the hidden essence within it. It was actually like silk, crisscrossing and enveloping the entire Great Dao.
At the front of the stone steps, the origin of the sword intent was rather sparse. However, the higher one went, the denser the origin of the sword intent became.
This was the reason why the pressure on him became denser and denser as he walked on the main road.
Forcefully resisting the sword intent and moving forward, the formless and intangible source of meaning would not slide to the sides, but would instead be pushed in front of him. The further he walked, the more source of meaning would be pushed in front of him, and when he could not withstand the rebound of the source of meaning, he could only be sent back to the foot of the mountain.
Tang Huan was no exception. At this time, the amount of source energy in front of him was already shockingly high.
If he continued forward, even if he could clearly sense their existence, Tang Huan would still have to spend a very long time to reach the peak.
Rather than that, he might as well return to the foot of the mountain and walk again.
During this process, he could try to communicate with the sword intent. Otherwise, even if he reached the peak, he would not be able to become the "Sword Sovereign" or the "Little Sword Sovereign". To Tang Huan, it was useless.
However, after taking a few steps down, Tang Huan was stunned.
Thinking back to Hu Chan's experience when he participated in the "Hidden Sword Grand Ceremony", he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Back then, Hu Chan had spent a lot of time to sense the existence of the source of meaning after triggering the resonance of the sword intent on the stone steps.
Furthermore, the source of meaning that Hu Chan had sensed was distributed in a sheet shape, encompassing the entire Great Dao. Of course, there were some areas that were dense, and some areas that were relatively thin. Hu Chan followed along the areas where the source of meaning was thin, and in the end, he used six days to reach the peak of the mountain and ring the ancient bell.
At this moment, in Tang Huan's senses, the source energy was distributed in a filamentary manner, and was very clear.
"Could it be because of the 'Intangible Buddha'?"
Tang Huan's mind raced.
On the Great Path of Stone Steps, there was indeed not much of a difference in the strength of one's cultivation. However, if the difference was so great that it was inconceivable, then it would be difficult to say. A Heavenly Origin Stage cultivator and a Void Transformation Stage expert would definitely have an obvious difference in their performance on the Great Path of Stone Steps.
With Tang Huan's Profound Cave Transformation cultivation, the gap between him and the Sky Origin Cultivators was not unimaginable.
However, after Tang Huan fused with the "Intangible Buddha", the strength of his soul had already exceeded one's imagination. This caused Tang Huan's Perception Ability to be worlds apart from the people around him. Even a mysterious cultivator like Mei Yingluo could not be compared to Tang Huan in this aspect.
This extremely strong Perception Ability did not allow Tang Huan's own intent to quickly resonate with the sword intent, but the moment the resonance appeared, Tang Huan's huge advantage was immediately revealed. Thus, in a short period of time, he was able to clearly distinguish the existence of every single trace of the essence.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Huan had already calmed his mind and continued to descend.
"Isn't that Tang Huan? Why did he come down? "
"The second person to resonate with the sword intent seems to be him. Why didn't he take the opportunity to continue comprehending the sword intent? Why did he come down?"
"From what I see, there must be a reason why he did this."
"You can't take the pressure, right? Haha, who said that Tang Huan would definitely become the 'Sword Sovereign' just now? "
"..."
At the foot of the mountain, cries of surprise rose one after another.
Many of the Pure Yang Sword Sect cultivators had different expressions on their faces. Some were curious, some were doubtful, some were ridiculing, some were gloating, and some were still full of confidence.
Seeing Tang Huan's actions, many of the cultivators who were participating in the ceremony were also absent-minded. After that, they could not withstand the rebound of the sword intent's origin, and thus, cries of alarm sounded out one after another.
Wherever Tang Huan passed, cultivators would continuously roll down. Amidst the chaotic sounds, Tang Huan finally walked down the last step.
Immediately after, Tang Huan sat cross-legged on the ground and took out a precious fruit he obtained from the "Heavenly Desolate Secret Realm" from the Sumeru Magical Ring. He swallowed it and began to absorb it. In this place, it was naturally inconvenient for Tang Huan to throw the fruit into the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" to refine it in front of everyone's eyes.
After a long while, Tang Huan recovered his True Essence and once again stepped onto the stone steps.
As Tang Huan walked on the stairs, his eyes seemed to have already quietly closed. However, in Tang Huan's mind, the origin of the sword intent was like a thread, clearly revealing itself, allowing Tang Huan to easily avoid their obstruction and interference.
In the eyes of the crowd, Tang Huan's footsteps did not seem to slow down at all. It was as smooth as flowing water, and his entire person seemed to be extremely relaxed, as if he was taking a leisurely stroll. At this moment, it was as if Tang Huan had returned to the astral bridge after deducing the entire Spirit Map.
Seeing this scene, everyone was indescribably shocked.
Tang Huan's performance when he walked up the stone steps this time was completely different from his previous performance and that of the other cultivators. Before this, no matter if it was Tang Huan, Mei Yingluo, Yu Qingge or the others, although they were advancing steadily on the main road, it was obvious that they were enduring more and more pressure.
But now, Tang Huan was walking normally, as if he did not feel any pressure at all.
"We were all wrong."
At the side of the main road, Xi Yi sighed softly, a hint of shock still lingering between his brows, "Tang Huan did not come down to relieve the pressure first, but the moment he resonated with the sword intent, he had already captured all the essence of this path. That's why he was able to do it so easily."
"How did he manage to understand all of the Origin Meanings?" Wei Xuan Pavilion also cried out in alarm, "When we first participated in this' Hidden Sword Grand Ceremony ', we were only able to vaguely sense the existence of the origin of the meaning. It was impossible for us to avoid all the obstruction of the origin of the meaning like him."
"Doesn't this mean that Tang Huan will be able to reach the summit very soon?"
The extreme shock caused Meng Xingchun to completely forget to bicker with Wei Xuan Pavilion. He muttered, "Once we reach the summit, one of the seven Little Sword Sovereigns will definitely be his."
"..."
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Tang Huan's footsteps were neither fast nor slow, and he quickly returned to the middle section of the stone steps. Furthermore, he had surpassed Mei Yingluo, Yu Qingge, He Ming and the others who had stopped there, as well as the few Profound Opening Realm swordsmen who had walked the furthest on this road.
He left everyone in the dust!
Tang Huan was already far ahead, surpassing all the cultivators that were participating in the ceremony. At this moment, Tang Huan's heart was as calm as an ancient well, his mind was completely immersed in the surrounding sword intent, and within the essence of the sword intent, Tang Huan could faintly feel the existence of a strong will.
