Free Web NovelNext to the phoenix-winged purple gold crown was a battle armor with a dull luster.
The armor was ancient in form, weathered by countless winds and rains, its original golden color now covered in a leaden patina.
Li Mo recalled that, in books, the Great Sage who emerged from under the Five Elements Mountain never again wore that magnificent armor.
This seemed to be its state after escaping from under the Five Elements Mountain.
And, like the phoenix-winged purple gold crown, it could be worn, but his Yi Soul still couldn't activate it.
"The Ice Cube has already reached Guan Shen Eight Apertures."
Li Mo eyed the golden chainmail, a slight ache in his teeth, as he walked back to the Yin Yang Dojo.
The progress of his Yi Soul was too slow because the improvement of his Qi Tian Dou Zhan Intent was negligible when he fought the Great Sage Projection.
I stood up, and one strike finished it.
What kind of tempering significance could that have?
So, his recent Physical Body progress was visible to the naked eye, while his Yi Soul remained stagnant.
The moon hung high in the sky.
Xiao Jiang Princess arrived as scheduled.
"Teacher, I... I got a new sword today!"
Jiang Chulong hugged the Qing Ye Sword, her excitement still palpable.
"Oh? How did you acquire it?"
The pure passerby Heavenly Venerate Teacher withdrew his thoughts and asked with a smile.
"Li Dage gave it to me."
Jiang Chulong adjusted her sunglasses.
Xiao Jiang Princess's Zhan Long Sword Technique was exceptionally sharp today.
After three challenges, the Yellow Dragon finally fell beneath the Qing Ye Sword, happily sent away, which not only elevated her Zhan Long Sword Technique to a higher level but also left behind Yellow Dragon essence blood for Li Mo.
The Yellow Dragon Projection was a generous and respectable Dragon in its lifetime.
Her speed in challenging extreme form projections was indeed faster; she could basically win as soon as she figured out the opponent's style.
Especially against Dragon forms... "This Yellow Dragon doesn't seem as formidable as before. It was much easier than when I fought the Red Dragon last time."
"It seems it's not just because of the sword technique..."
Jiang Chulong ran back, holding the Qing Ye Sword, her neck covered in glistening sweat, sticking to her hair.
"That's because you have already surpassed the Red Dragon and are no longer suppressed by Dragon Might." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
The Heavenly Venerate Teacher said, crossing his arms.
"That should be it."
Xiao Jiang Princess nodded, standing shyly, her small eyes filled with anticipation.
Understanding her thoughts, Xiao Li Heavenly Venerate gave a wry cough:
"Alright, no more new opponents today. Let's continue with the story. Where did we leave off last time?"
"It was when the Great Sage was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain!"
Jiang Chulong sat on the bluestone, hugging her knees, excited.
"Oh right, suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, he, like that Spirit Stone of old, endured five hundred years of wind and rain..."
The mist in the Small World shifted, forming a light screen.
It showed the scene of Sun Wukong being suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, eating peaches with a shepherd boy, until Tang Monk removed the seal and the Monkey King was reborn... Xiao Jiang Princess yawned and reluctantly went to rest.
"Chu Long is also about to break through."
"Once a Dragon is slain, one will no longer fear Dragons."
Li Mo sat alone in the Yin Yang Dojo, increasingly realizing that he could no longer remain stagnant.
Thus, the Hun Tian Fan Zhen Mirror vibrated, and the Great Sage Divine Intent manifested.
Looking at that majestic figure in the fierce wind.
Li Mo suddenly recalled the weathered golden chainmail from earlier.
He looked up.
The cloud curtain in the sky was still playing scenes from Journey to the West.
Five hundred years under the Five Elements Mountain, when he re-emerged, the Monkey King was in rags, seemingly even bare-bottomed, having reverted to the appearance of a monkey, shouting 'Master!' as he ran towards Tang Monk... The initially tense Li Mo chuckled.
"Monkey! I'm back!"
The aura of the Great Sage Projection seemed to pause.
His face remained blurred, indistinct, but it could be felt.
He was smiling... The battle in the Yin Yang Dojo lasted for an hour. This time, Li Mo was finally not instantly killed, and he also discovered the reason why he couldn't even withstand a single move before.
The more he feared, the more powerful and imposing the Great Sage Projection's aura became, crushing him.
In fact, the answer had been told to him from the very beginning.
Do not fear, shatter the God in your heart!
So, when Li Mo understood this Dao, the halo of the Great Sage vanished.
He was the opponent he had to face directly.
He was also the direction he had to move towards!
Therefore, after this, the real battle began.
Emmmmm
Xiao Li can now withstand four moves, still due to enduring a long period of beatings. Even if the Great Sage Projection's Yi Soul strength was comparable to his, the application of Divine Ability and the unfathomable combat experience... still made Li Mo's fight a teaching session.
Fortunately, his Yi Soul, which had not progressed for a long time, finally grew again.
When he emerged from the Small World, it was dawn.
Li Mo felt no fatigue; instead, he was full of vigor.
Taking advantage of his refreshed Qi and completed Divine Intention, he picked up the Celestial Human Divine Sword.
To his surprise, the God Sword seemed to get along well with the hammer treasure; it was originally lazy and somewhat unwilling to follow Li Mo's instructions, but now, for the sake of the Ice Cube and its new friend, it was not as reluctant as yesterday.
As the God Sword entered his hand, a clear and pure artistic conception naturally arose from the bottom of his heart.
Buzz!
Suddenly.
The artistic conception surged, and the God Sword emitted a profound sword hum.
Before Li Mo's eyes, countless Qi converged into an illusory scene: the majestic and grand Celestial Human City, full of diverse phenomena, yet exuding an eerie disharmony.
He saw the Celestial Human Divine Sword held in the hand of a woman.
This was the God Sword's former wielder, its first wielder.
She was also the former Sword Armor of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
"Chu Long's mother... Shi Sujun?"
The woman wore white, her face also blurred and indistinct, but her eyes could vaguely be seen, revealing obscure sword light, as if piercing through the mysteries of the Sword Dao.
She stood on the uppermost part of Celestial Human City, looking up at the dark sky.
The murmuring wind brought her story.
Decades ago.
At that time, there was no Qianlong Assembly, but the Tianhuang Domain had always existed, and countless powerful cultivators from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths all wanted to break it open.
At that time, there was also no °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° Celestial Human City, only the Celestial Human Realm, which was even more perilous.
Even a Law Body of the Sixth Realm entering it might not emerge unscathed.
Countless weapons were broken and lost, and their blades were sent to the Sword Tomb.
Shi Sujun comprehended the Dao in the Sword Tomb and initially achieved the Seventh Realm. The God Sword in her hand emitted an excited sword hum, just as it did now.
She gently stroked the long sword:
"You were born from countless broken weapons in the Sword Tomb."
"Their owners, some with soaring ambition, some with grand aspirations, some with a heart for the world, some... It is precisely because of their unextinguished Intent, integrated by my sword technique, that you came into being."
"They will live on through you from now on."
"I will leave you in the Celestial Human Realm."
"Thereafter, every hero who wields you will engrave their Sword Intent upon you."
"You will grow stronger and stronger, and one day, you will cut through the boundless darkness..."
