Chapter 98 The Heavenly Gate

That was the Heavenly Gate!

If one could cross it, they could ascend to the Immortal World.

The appearance of the Heavenly Gate silenced everyone.

Some even suspected that Lu Changsheng might soon ascend.

But as Lu Changsheng turned his gaze, that terrifying Heavenly Gate vanished faintly.

Disappearing into the firmament.

At that moment, everything calmed down.

Sword Mountain returned to tranquility. The sky was clear, and all the sword qi had disappeared.

The only extraordinary thing was the ten peerless immortal swords surrounding Lu Changsheng.

These ten immortal swords were not true immortal artifacts, but top-grade Dao artifacts, perfect embryos of immortal artifacts, capable of further evolution.

The Purple and Azure Dual Swords, the Golden Emperor Immortal Sword, the Wood Sovereign Immortal Sword, the Water Monarch Immortal Sword, the Fire King Immortal Sword, the Earth Sage Immortal Sword, the Black Gold Immortal Sword, the White Spirit Immortal Sword, and the Bronze Immortal Sword.

These were the ten great immortal swords of Sword Mountain.

All were top-grade Dao artifacts, immortal sword embryos.

Lu Changsheng placed these ten immortal swords within his ten golden cores, using the golden cores to nurture them. If he truly ascended one day, these ten immortal swords would surely become peerless immortal swords, not just simple low-grade or mid-grade ones.

"Shu Sect's Holy Son, Xu Jian, greets Senior Brother Lu!"

After everything had calmed down.

Xu Jian was the first to recover.

He appeared directly before Lu Changsheng and bowed respectfully.

In truth, he had long heard of Lu Changsheng's legends.

He just hadn't expected Lu Changsheng to be as extraordinary as the legends said.

The line, "If Heaven had not given birth to me, Lu Changsheng, the sword path of eternity would be like a long night," resonated with the millions of spiritual swords of Sword Mountain.

Especially the phrase "Sword, come," which revealed a terrifying sword intent.

On the path of the sword, Lu Changsheng was like an invincible existence, towering at the end, while they, the sword cultivators, could only gaze at Lu Changsheng from afar.

The difference between the two was a hundred and eight thousand miles.

In other words, Lu Changsheng had severed the beliefs of countless sword cultivators. After today, who knows how many sword cultivation geniuses would give up on the sword path.

Including himself, he might have to change his sword path.

"Greetings, Brother Xu!"

Lu Changsheng appeared very humble. He smiled and cupped his fist in greeting, and Xu Jian couldn't help but laugh awkwardly, saying, "In recent days, Xu spoke carelessly. Senior Brother Lu, please don't take offense."

He said this to apologize to Lu Changsheng for what had happened in recent days.

Lu Changsheng shook his head and said indifferently, "It's just a small matter. Besides, Brother Xu wasn't slandering me, so it's nothing."

Although Xu Jian had spoken carelessly that day, he was genuinely praising him, not slandering him. Lu Changsheng didn't think it was a big deal; he wasn't that petty.

"Senior Brother Lu is truly magnanimous. Later, the Holy Land will host a banquet, and Xu will punish himself with three cups!"

Xu Jian said this, then invited Lu Changsheng to the Shu Sect Holy Land.

Just then, a voice slowly sounded.

"Senior Lu!"

The voice belonged to Li Lingyun. He called out, causing Lu Changsheng to turn his head to look.

Li Lingyun stood up.

He gazed at Lu Changsheng, this man who seemed like an immortal.

Then, he cupped his hands and asked.

"Senior Lu, today you have proven the Dao of the Sword Immortal, but I still want to ask, is there still a path for the sword dao lineage?"

Li Lingyun spoke, asking a question that everyone wanted to ask.

Lu Changsheng had already proven the Supreme Sword Dao, essentially blocking the path for all the sword cultivators in the world.

But Li Lingyun had a sword heart. His question was a question of will.

In fact, this sword path already had a peerless Sword Immortal, and it was almost impossible for anyone else to prove the Supreme Sword Dao. This was something everyone knew.

The qi luck of heaven and earth was limited. Sometimes it wasn't a question of whether you could do it, but whether the Heavenly Dao would allow it.

Li Lingyun's question was something that everyone already knew the answer to, but everyone's gaze was still focused on Lu Changsheng.

They longed for a different answer.

Lu Changsheng looked at Li Lingyun. His eyes appeared extremely calm.

Having proven the Supreme Sword Dao, Lu Changsheng understood this path better than anyone.

He had already occupied 90% of the sword dao's qi luck. It was impossible to create another Supreme Sword Dao expert with the remaining 10%.

However, Lu Changsheng slowly said.

"Where there's a will, there's a way!"

He didn't tell Li Lingyun whether this path could continue, but he told all the sword cultivators in the world that there was nothing in this world that was impossible. Where there's a will, there's a way!

That was all.

In an instant, countless sword cultivators were stunned, including Xu Jian.

Lu Changsheng's six words rang in everyone's ears like a great bell.

Especially Xu Jian.

When Lu Changsheng proved the sword dao, he had already wanted to give up on this path.

But Lu Changsheng's six words made Xu Jian suddenly realize and regain his confidence.

"Where there's a will, there's a way!" Li Lingyun murmured to himself, then he bowed deeply to Lu Changsheng, saying, "This junior thanks Senior for your guidance. This junior vows here that if I do not prove the sword dao in this life, I will prove it in the next life. Life after life, endlessly, I, Li Lingyun, am willing to dedicate myself to the sword dao for thousands of reincarnations."

Li Lingyun spoke, making a grand vow, but unfortunately, there were no auspicious signs to reinforce it.

But Sword Mountain, which had not moved at all, suddenly sounded a voice.

In an instant, an ancient sword flew out of Sword Mountain and landed in Li Lingyun's hand.

It was a low-grade magical artifact, very ordinary, just as Li Lingyun was ordinary, but this flying sword recognized Li Lingyun's heart of the sword dao.

And Xu Jian revealed a hint of surprise.

To be able to cause a spiritual sword to resonate in front of Lu Changsheng, a peerless Sword Immortal, even if it was just a low-grade magical artifact flying sword, was extremely remarkable.

Xu Jian couldn't help but take another look at Li Lingyun, then slowly said, "Since you have been recognized by the Sword Mountain flying sword, consider it as passing the test and becoming a disciple of my Shu Sect."

He said this.

In an instant, Li Lingyun couldn't help but be overjoyed, but he didn't say much, instead, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Changsheng.

Afterward, Lu Changsheng followed Xu Jian and left.

Leaving behind countless sword cultivation disciples.

And a woman.

Chen Yinrou quietly gazed at Lu Changsheng, a hint of sadness appearing in her eyes, but soon she revealed a look of determination, not speaking, just quietly watching Lu Changsheng.

Just like that, quietly watching Lu Changsheng.

She understood that the difference between herself and Lu Changsheng was simply too great.

She also understood that she was not worthy of Lu Changsheng.

But the phrase "Where there's a will, there's a way" made Chen Yinrou suddenly realize.

Since the difference was too great, then work hard to make up for the gap between them.

Perhaps one day, she would be able to catch up to Lu Changsheng's pace.

In reality, for Lu Changsheng, Chen Yinrou was just a passerby in his life.

At the same time.

A gentle voice sounded, spreading throughout millions of miles of Central Continent.
