Chapter 149: Great Dao, Return to the Origin!

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Every word suspended in the air seemed to contain a Supreme Great Dao.
Not only did it contain the way of the sword, it also contained the way of the writer.
If it did not resonate, then it was already there, but if it resonated, it would shock everyone.
When the Sword Intent was hidden in the words, it did not reveal itself.
However, when it was fully displayed in front of everyone, everyone was shocked.
It was an invisible Sword Intent that could pierce through the Heavens and Earth, terrifying to the soul.
Compared to this Sword Intent, the original Sword Qi was nothing.
When the cultivators in Startling Rainbow Valley felt the sharp Sword Qi in the sky, their bodies couldn’t help but tremble.
Under that Sword Qi, they seemed to feel the pressure of a peerless mighty figure, and they didn’t even dare to make a sound.
It was an imposing manner that looked down on the world, as if they were the only ones in the world.
Even the Dao hearts of the cultivators couldn’t help but tremble.
The Sword Qi and Sword Intent left behind by the Ancient Sword Immortal made them feel that it was extremely dangerous.
However, the new Sword Intent made them tremble from the depths of their souls.
Every pore on their bodies was pointed at by the sharp sword radiance. They could feel waves of cold air at all times.
It was an indescribable shock that came from the bottom of their hearts.
At this moment, the entire Startling Rainbow Valley was filled with the sound of clanging swords.
It became louder and louder, covering all the sounds like rolling thunder.
Immediately after, countless Sword Qi rushed out of Startling Rainbow Valley and trembled as it rushed toward the twenty characters in the sky.
It was like a stream flowing into the sea.
The canal was formed naturally.
The cultivators widened their eyes.
What did they see?
The shocking Sword Qi that had forced everyone into a corner had voluntarily ‘submitted’ to that terrifying Sword Intent?
If that Sword Qi had welcomed Lou Hongzhi before, then that Sword Qi now completely submitted to the Sword Intent in that poem.
Bowing and prostrating.
Bowing and worshipping.
It was like a junior meeting a senior.
One could even feel that the Sword Qi was very excited.
It was like a cultivator suddenly meeting the almighty they worshipped one day.
They were completely not on the same level.
“Hiss.”
The group of cultivators sucked in a breath of cold air one after another, and cold sweat seeped out from their backs in shock.
After the shock passed.
Everyone’s gaze focused on one person.
The Young Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, Yu Hongye!
To be more precise, their gazes were focused on the calligraphy and painting in Yu Hongye’s hands.
Who had actually written it?
To be able to write such a calligraphy and painting that contained Supreme Sword Intent, and even the Sword Qi protecting the Ancient Sword Immortal’s cave abode was willing to submit to it, then what kind of peak level of Sword Dao attainments would the person who wrote it have reached?
World-shaking, soul-stirring!
The whole world was shocked.
All the cultivators were dumbstruck.
And at this moment, Lou Hongzhi was also so shocked that he couldn’t speak.
At the moment that the painting was unfolded, his Sword Qi rushed toward the words in the sky uncontrollably, fusing into the terrifying Sword Intent.
It was only because his Sword Qi was too small compared to the Sword Qi of the entire Startling Rainbow Valley that he wasn’t noticed by others.
It was just that some of the Sword Qi had disappeared, so it was not a big deal.
However, Lou Hongzhi’s Dao heart was strongly shocked.
He had been very ambitious all his life. Other than his master, there were not many that he could see.
But today, his sword aura ‘betrayed’ him and ‘surrendered’ to the Sword Intent in the sky.
It was unbelievable.
However, Lou Hongzhi quickly adjusted himself.
His attention was focused on the twenty words in the sky.
As a talented sword cultivator, he knew that the strokes and movements of the words were the essence.
Laymen might only be shocked by the shocking Sword Intent of the words.
Only professionals knew that the sword was not to cultivate Sword Intent, but to cultivate the heart.
Only when the Dao in the heart reached a state where it looked down on the world, could it write the words that were light and breezy, but contained endless pride.
Facing the Sword Dao of Sword Immortal Cheng He, Lou Hongzhi only felt interested and wanted to improve his Sword Dao by learning from it.
But facing the Sword Intent in front of him, Lou Hongzhi could feel a deep respect.
It must be the peak of Sword Dao.
Returning to the origin.
It as a sharp sword without edge.
The realm that countless sword cultivators dreamed of.
Looking at the Sword Qi, Lou Hongzhi could imagine the meaning of a peerless swordsman.
Once this sword was unleashed, it would sweep away all injustice in the world!
Lou Hongzhi only wished that he could see this shocking Sword Intent earlier.
Previously, his cultivation of Sword Dao seemed to be walking in the dark. Only now did the clouds disperse and the moon appear.
Frankly speaking, what he cultivated was not Sword Dao at all.
It was Sword Arts.
Sword Arts sought to defeat the opponent in the most direct and efficient way, just like how he challenged the sword cultivators in the southern territory before. Every time, he defeated the opponent with one move.
In the end, he had only gotten familiar with the sword moves, but his realm of swordsmanship had not improved at all.
Now Lou Hongzhi understood that a real swordsman did not need to defeat the enemy to prove himself.
If he could comprehend a little bit of the world-shocking sword intent in the sky, then he would not need to draw his sword when facing the previous enemy.
The sword had not been unsheathed, and he had already won without fighting.
This was the difference between the realms.
And the person who wrote that character had an even more terrifying realm in the way of the sword.
He had already reached the realm of no sword winning and having a sword.
Just an ordinary poem could make him unable to control his own Sword Qi.
In the end, it was because he was too dependent on his own sword.
Looking at that Sword Intent, Lou Hongzhi felt that his realm of the way of the sword was slightly relaxed again.
He felt that he was about to break through.
He was just short of an opportunity.
And this opportunity was right in front of him!
Lou Hongzhi was mesmerized as he watched. He muttered, “This is the Supreme Sword Dao that I am pursuing.”
“I finally understand what it means to learn the Dao in the morning. It’s like dying in the evening.”
Compared to the true Sword Dao, the ‘Sword Dao’ that he had come into contact with previously was not even worth mentioning.
Although Jianglu did not understand Sword Arts, he still stood rooted to the ground as he watched.
The Sect Master of the Dao Constellation Palace thought that Jianglu had an ‘extremely intelligent root’. For the first time, he felt that his mind was blank.
That was because those twenty words didn’t only contain Sword Intent.
There was also the way of the writer.
The way of chess required great wisdom.
And in Jianglu’s eyes, the Sword Intent in the sky had already given birth to a chessboard.
On that chessboard, he saw the Heaven-shaking Sword Intent transform into a fierce dragon, ready to attack. And his way of chess was like an earthworm, powerless to fight.
If that dragon rushed over, his chess moves, which were like earthworms, would definitely be reduced to dust.
He was completely unqualified to play chess!
Who was the writer?
He was actually proficient in both sword techniques and chess moves.
Just as he was about to probe further, he saw the twenty illusory words in the sky gradually disappear and return to the calligraphy.
The Heaven-shaking Sword Intent and the dragon’s chess moves also disappeared.
Everything returned to calmness.
In Yu Hongye’s hand was still the ordinary-looking painting from before.
This was the return to the origin.
This was the Supreme Great Dao.
