661: Chapter 209_6 661: Chapter 209_6 “We can’t comprehend it, but what about Master and Third Senior Brother?” Little Beiyan raised his hand and pointed to Cao Zhen and Xiang Ziyu by his side.
Beichen Ying was slightly startled, and then realized and said, “This… Peak Master Cao is a reincarnated great ability and can understand, even achieve enlightenment, which isn’t all that surprising.
After all, Peak Master Cao has an extra lifetime of experiences compared to us.”
Little Beiyan continued to ask, “Then what about Third Senior Brother?
Third Senior Brother doesn’t have a previous life; he, like us, has never experienced the life of an ordinary person.
How did he achieve enlightenment?”
Beichen Ying was at a loss for words; he really couldn’t understand how Xiang Ziyu could have achieved enlightenment.
Meanwhile, Li Ke was also puzzled.
Why could Cao Zhen and Xiang Ziyu achieve enlightenment?
She knew that Cao Zhen was not a reincarnated great ability; just like everyone else, he had not lived through those fifty years as an ordinary person.
So why could he achieve enlightenment?
In the midst of everyone’s puzzled looks, Xiang Ziyu was the first to come out of his enlightenment, followed closely by Cao Zhen who returned to his senses.
Seeing the two of them come around, everyone hastily asked.
“Old Six, have you reached enlightenment?
What did you just comprehend?
We couldn’t see anything in that sword technique.”
“Third Senior Brother, how did you achieve enlightenment?
Why are you able to, despite not having gone through those fifty years like us, and yet you understood it?”
Cao Zhen listened to everyone’s questions and was stunned for a moment.
What did they mean, Xiang Ziyu also achieved enlightenment?
Xiang Ziyu could understand the Sword Dao?
The moment he saw the swordsmanship, he knew why one needed to live fifty years as an ordinary person to understand it—it truly originated from the mortal realms!
He could understand because he had always been a mortal before, and in the era he lived in, information was incredibly developed.
He came from an age of information explosion.
Moreover, he had connected with many mortals, whether it was Mozi, Zhao Ji, Gao Jianli, or his parents—all were ordinary people, and he had some of their insights and knowledge.
Therefore, he understood this Sword Dao, but what about Xiang Ziyu?
How did he understand it?
Xiang Ziyu, sensing everyone’s gaze, proudly said, “What’s so difficult about it?
Isn’t it just a set of swordsmanship?
The Heaven Illusion Sword Monarch has taught us how to use sword techniques.
Why couldn’t I learn it?”
Swordsmanship?
Cao Zhen frowned.
What the Heaven Illusion Sword Monarch had demonstrated was not some sword technique, but the Sword Dao.
Yet Xiang Ziyu referred to it as swordsmanship.
So, what he saw wasn’t the Sword Dao but the swordsmanship?
What swordsmanship did he see?
Cao Zhen quickly opened Xiang Ziyu’s profile panel to check.
Indeed, Xiang Ziyu had learned something new.
Heavenly Illusion Sword Technique (Modified): Level One.
So, Xiang Ziyu had indeed learned the sword technique, but he had modified it.
Is this the power of understanding all things from one point?
Whether it was the Sword Dao or Sword Intent, Xiang Ziyu could forcefully interpret it as swordsmanship and then succeeded in modifying it.
This…
Cao Zhen looked around him and, finally facing the direction of the cemetery and tombstones, he bowed and said, “Many thanks for bestowing the Sword Dao!”
After speaking, he turned to the crowd, raised his hand and pointed forward, “Alright, we have obtained the legacy of the Heaven Illusion Sword Monarch.
Next, we’ll open the passage of the Blood Prison.
Fortunately, opening the passage to the Blood Prison doesn’t require the power of the Earth Immortal Realm.”
Hearing this, Little Beiyan curiously asked, “Master?
The Heaven Illusion Sword Monarch said that we could gain his legacy here and naturally know how to open the passage to obtain the secret technique to leave.
We haven’t received the legacy, so naturally we don’t have the secret technique to open it.
Master, have you gained the legacy and the secret technique?”
Cao Zhen nodded, “Of course.
Whether it’s the method to leave this place or to enter it, it’s all Sword Intent.
Just executing the Heaven Illusion Sword Monarch’s Sword Intent is enough.”
Little Beiyan nodded in understanding, “Oh, in that case, only you and Third Senior Brother can open the passage and leave this place.”
Cao Zhen didn’t directly answer; he was capable of opening the passage and leaving this place, but what about Xiang Ziyu?
That kid got a modified sword technique.
Could he open the passage or leave this place?
Thinking this, he turned to Xiang Ziyu and said, “Zi Yu, you’ve also received the legacy; go open the passage.”
“Sure, it’s these kinds of ceremonious tasks that need to be done by a main character like me,” agreed Xiang Ziyu with a nod, making his way towards the frozen Blood River.
Around them, everyone’s expression turned grave.
Golden Cores arose, and everyone held Divine Weapons in hand, watching the Blood River closely, ready to strike down any emerging Demonic Beasts the instant the seal was broken.
After all, they had only guessed that Earth Immortal Realm Demonic Beasts wouldn’t appear, but they didn’t know the strength or the number of Demonic Beasts that might emerge.
In everyone’s view, Xiang Ziyu raised his hand and, using it as a sword, slashed towards the encased Blood River.
Instantly, his whole demeanor changed, filled with an ethereal sense.
In that moment, it seemed as if hundreds of Xiang Ziyus appeared in the sky, each swinging his sword at the same time.
A hundred swords flew out, each brimming with Unparalleled Sword Intent, with a thick aura of ethereality.
The hundred swords were all different, as if a hundred exceptional swordsmen executed their strongest strike simultaneously, and these hundred phantoms were incredibly elusive, giving the faint impression that there were not a hundred people performing sword techniques, but rather none at all.
As the sword fell, the whole world shook violently.
For a moment, the world seemed filled with sword light, and yet, at the same time, there appeared to be only one sword.
With the fall of this sword,
A shockingly powerful aura burst forth from within the Blood River.
Then, a sword light shot out, aiming straight for the sword light released by Xiang Ziyu.
The next moment, Xiang Ziyu’s released sword light dissipated completely.
A force of sealing, accompanying the sword light that flew out from the Blood River, shot forth.
It sealed Xiang Ziyu’s strike, and at the same time, the sealing force aimed at Xiang Ziyu and everyone else, seeming to want to seal them all!
