Free Web NovelThe Sword Tower emitted brilliant divine light, overshadowing the sun, as if representing the will of the gods.
Even the Cloud Steps were tinged with a faint golden color, resembling a heavenly path for ascending to godhood.
Ying Bing looked at the towering giant sword, her eyes trembling.
Of course, she wouldn't be rejected by these Cloud Steps, nor would she feel any pressure.
She was just thinking...
Should she go up?
If her Sword Heart wasn't Clarity, what was the point of ascending?
But if she were to comprehend the true meaning of the Divine Firmament Heavenly Heart and walk this path, then...
Perhaps all her future paths would have to be walked alone.
"What's wrong with her?"
"I can walk halfway up these Cloud Steps; could it be she's afraid to go up?"
"That shouldn't be... When she was on the arena, no one could withstand three of her swords. How could she be afraid?"
"Could there be some trickery involved?"
The clamor of discussion reached her ears.
"Hmm?"
That ordinary-looking woman, Yin Mianmian, also cast her gaze over.
The Elders also furrowed their brows, their expressions puzzled.
Given this young girl's talent, weren't these Cloud Steps merely a formality?
It was just a walk-through.
How did it seem to put her... in a dilemma?
Ying Bing's vision blurred, and chaotic images flashed before her eyes.
On one side was power, a solitary existence, cold and lonely.
On the other side was everything that had happened since her Rebirth, vibrant and real.
Both were deeply rooted in her heart, impossible to shake off.
Her Yi Soul also fluctuated violently because of this.
"Ice Cube."
Suddenly, a voice, amidst the clamor, entered her ears.
She looked up and saw that the young man also had a troubled expression.
Xiao Li felt bitter.
That inexplicable pressure was growing stronger and stronger.
And it wasn't acting on his Physical Body, but on his Yi Soul!
It was outrageous.
He hadn't felt this way when he climbed the Ascension Stone Steps!
Was it because these Cloud Steps were all condensed from Sword Intent, and he was a Dao of Sword insulator?
That wasn't right either.
For example, Zhong Zhenyue clearly didn't have strong Dao of Sword talent, yet he was still walking briskly.
That was strange.
There was no time to delve into the reason.
At this moment, not only did his Yi Soul have to bear the pressure, but he also had to appear calm on the surface.
It seemed he could only use that method...
As everyone knew.
Xiao Li was a Genius, so deep thought really did lead him to a possible solution.
【Congratulations to the Host, ten years of Martial Arts Comprehension injected successfully】
【In the first year, you followed the Dual Cultivation method, exploring how Divine Intention merges and spirits resonate.】
....
【In the tenth year, you had an Epiphany in your heart: the key lay in the Yi Soul. If the compatibility of the two Yi Souls was too poor, then the Phoenix Cries Towards Heaven's Marsh (Second Level) could never be completed.】
He looked at Ying Bing and said:
"Phoenix Cries Towards Heaven's Marsh (Second Level), do you still remember it?"
"Phoenix... Cries Heavenly Marsh?"
A hint of confusion appeared in Ying Bing's serene eyes, but she still nodded gently.
"Then come."
Li Mo extended his hand towards her.
Ying Bing: "?"
Also, as everyone knew.
Phoenix Cries Heavenly Marsh was a Dual Cultivation martial art.
Dual Cultivation?
Here?
As she hesitated in confusion, her delicate hand suddenly felt a warmth. It was Li Mo, who had returned with Xiao Jiang, taking her hand.
Warm, strong.
Ying Bing found that the inner turmoil in her heart suddenly vanished, as if it had never existed.
Why was this?
Why did her Yi Soul suddenly become calm again?
The two had had more intimate contact before.
It was just holding hands; it wasn't anything...
This was not normal.
Ying Bing suddenly looked up, only to see that familiar pair of eyes, even more familiar to her than before.
Those eyes, reflecting herself, actually had a faint, clear moonlight.
It was almost an instinctive reaction.
The key to the Phoenix Cries Towards Heaven's Marsh (Second Level) appeared in her mind, and she began to circulate it.
This ultimate technique allowed the Yi Souls of two people to merge and their Divine Intentions to connect.
Thus.
The moon he had summoned also illuminated her acupoints.
It was also the Tai Yin.
But this clear light had no coldness, no dead silence.
It filled the world with a water-like tranquility and gentleness.
This... was the ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) Tai Yin he observed?
But this was clearly different from what she had seen, yet it was both strange and familiar.
"Phew... Let's go."
Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
After circulating his Qi, he also saw the Bronze Divine Tree and the Tai Yin in Ying Bing's eyes.
However, he didn't react much.
It was just that after their Yi Souls merged, the pressure on them instantly dissipated.
Thus.
Li Mo, with Xiao Jiang behind him and holding the dazed Ice Cube's hand, strode forward.
They walked onto the Azure Sky, leaving the clamor behind.
.....
"????"
"No, so Ying Bing wasn't moving because she was waiting for Li Shaoxia to hold her hand?"
"Folks, I suddenly feel this Martial Arts Summit is meaningless. I'm leaving."
"No, buddy..."
"This is the real-life version of 'Jiang Chen' and 'Liu Wuyan'! It's a pity Li Shaoxia doesn't have a crooked smile; it lacks a bit of that flavor."
After a moment of silence, the discussions at the scene became incessant.
On the high platform.
The Elders looked at each other, speechless.
"If I'm not mistaken, they should be..." Elder Zeng muttered to himself.
"That's right, it's Dual Cultivation."
"Hmm, and the grade of that Dual Cultivation method isn't low." freewebnσvel.cøm
Another Elder's mouth twitched.
Everyone: "..."
We're all this old; are we here to watch this?
In the past, when ascending the Tower, it was always a competition among Prodigies. If not fully charged with gunpowder, they were at least unwilling to fall behind.
What do these two youngsters mean?
"They're practically not treating us as people!"
"Am I not a person? Am I not a person?!"
"Elder Zeng, you are the Elder in charge of this event; why don't you say something!"
So.
Elder Zeng slammed the table and stood up, his expression agitated:
"Hehe... Good, good, good! Jiang Chen finally showed his boyfriend power!"
"????"
......
Above the Cloud Steps.
They walked higher and higher.
Ying Bing was led by the hand, strolling through the clouds, with all living beings below, just as she had once looked down upon the common people in Gui Palace.
Only now, she was not alone.
Because she could see that different bright moon within the young man's Yi Soul.
She was originally a Tai Yin Moon Phoenix body.
She was extremely sensitive to the mysteries of Tai Yin, coupled with the guidance of the Dual Cultivation method.
She saw what he saw.
The heavy confusion in her heart was illuminated at this moment, and Epiphany came naturally.
"My heart is as clear as a bright mirror."
"No matter what is reflected in the mirror, the mirror itself is Clarity."
The top of the Sword Tower was near.
"Finally almost done."
Li Mo smelled a faint fragrance from an unknown source, and a heavy stone in his heart fell.
Li Jianxian didn't collapse!
Thanks to Ice Cube too...
"Li... Li Dage."
"Hmm?"
"Ying Bing, she seems to have had an Epiphany."
"????"
Li Mo was stunned.
A strong fluctuation came from the Yi Soul that was merging with him.
He looked back, and their eyes met.
Ying Bing had a faint smile, very subtle, but genuinely there.
Buzz—
A sword cry came from the ethereal, echoing between heaven and earth, seemingly real and illusory, shaking the Cloud Steps.
This time, it wasn't Xiao Li manually adding special effects.
Tens of thousands of swords resonated, as if wanting to break free from their sheaths.
Even the massive Sword Tower seemed to tremble.
Li Mo's Yi Soul was now connected to Ying Bing's.
He felt it too.
An ethereal call came from the top of the Sword Tower.
But Li Mo had no mind to savor it.
He only heard Ice Cube whisper:
"Thank you for your bright moon."
