Chapter 435: Chapter 208: Great Fusion of Sword Intent—I Lost, You Are the Sword Intent Ceiling of the Divine Sword Sect

At this moment, Luo Qingchen stared fixedly at the ’True Self of Sword Intent’, utterly dumbfounded, as if witnessing the end of the world.

Even he couldn’t believe it. That the other party could, merely by observing, glimpse into his Sword Intent Realm—what kind of monstrous talent was this?

This moment, even the true self of Luo Qingchen atop Spirit Peak Four, wore an expression of boundless shock on his tightly shut face.

"How... how did you achieve this?" Luo Qingchen’s eyes, in the ’True Self of Sword Intent’ state, were extremely unfocused, unable to help but ask.

The ’True Self of Sword Intent’ form of Ye Xiaofan replied with a faint smile: "Want to know? Follow me, and I’ll teach you."

Boom—!!!

As his words fell, the ’True Self of Sword Intent’ gently waved its hand and suddenly pointed forward. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

In an instant, a sword intent as vast as the Milky Way surged towards the other, like a sky collapsing. There was no visible power fluctuation in the void, yet waves of heaven-destroying, earth-shattering terror emanated.

Feeling this aura, even Luo Qingchen was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the endless assault of sword intent.

At a certain moment, Luo Qingchen, reputedly Divine Sword Sect’s ceiling of sword intent, suddenly had his pupils contract, eyes filled with boundless horror.

"Is this... a Great Fusion of Sword Intent?" Others might not perceive the scene, but he, as a sword intent prodigy, ’saw’ several newly derived sword intents of Ye Xiaofan swiftly merging as they swept across. This struck Luo Qingchen as if by lightning: "How is it possible? How can sword intents merge on a large scale?"

Though he was a hundred times unwilling to accept this sight, it indeed happened undeniably.

In his utter horror, Luo Qingchen seemed at some moment to comprehend something, suddenly grasping things he had never before seized.

Suddenly, countless brilliant lights flashed in Luo Qingchen’s eyes, shocked to the point of disbelief.

Ye Xiaofan wore a smile, breakthroughs often came in an instant. During this time in the Hundred Sects Battle Domain, he never abandoned the comprehension of sword intent. Even half a year ago, the Sword Break intent had reached the extreme of this realm, yet had been unable to break through.

Originally, Ye Xiaofan himself thought that the Tenth Realm of sword intent was the limit for a sword cultivator in the Spiritual Essence Realm, and couldn’t be broken further. But in his confrontation with Luo Qingchen, he caught many details in the other’s comprehended Sword Intent Realm that he had not perceived.

And often inspiration strikes at that very moment. Comprehending these mystical realms doesn’t rely on the accumulation of time but rather the brilliance of that instant, the sudden enlightenment, the moment of realization.

Luo Qingchen dumbfoundly watched the continuously merging sword intents. At this moment, that person’s sword intent realm had already surpassed the extreme of the Tenth Realm of Spiritual Essence.

This extreme wasn’t merely a breakthrough; it transcended shackles, elevating the subsequent Sword Intent Realm to an alarming level, reaching another realm entirely.

But how... did he achieve it?

While Luo Qingchen was pondering, the endless sword intent had already merged into the Sword Break intent, instantly arriving head-on.

Feeling this terrifying sword intent, Luo Qingchen’s face changed drastically, instinctively unsealing his cultivation, preparing to face this blow.

Yet, just as he was about to employ a power greater than the Sword Intent Realm of Spiritual Essence, the terrifying sword intent suddenly halted in the void, merely half a meter away from Luo Qingchen.

At this moment before Luo Qingchen, it was as if an invisible sword was suspended, filled with endless Sword Dao Profound Meaning, poised to strike with a single thought.

It’s evident that the figure had halted the sword intent’s aggressive stance; sword intent, unlike Sword Qi, moves and halts merely at a sword cultivator’s whim.

On the other side of the boundless void, Ye Xiaofan stood with arms crossed, quietly observing Luo Qingchen. After a moment, he spoke lightly: "Brother Luo, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingchen, who had unsealed his cultivation, gradually returned to tranquility. His eyes were still filled with shock, yet a bitter smile appeared at his lips: "I lost. You are the ceiling of sword intent in Divine Sword Sect."

With these words, the entire temporary residence of Divine Sword Sect instantly froze. On the Endless Spirit Peak of nearly two million cultivators, there was a hush akin to cold cicadas, where a pin drop could be heard.

Everyone’s minds went blank, unprecedented in their shock. It was hard to imagine that Luo Qingchen, the ceiling of sword intent in Divine Sword Sect, had lost.

Though this was merely a competition of sword intent realms in the Spiritual Essence Realm, strictly speaking, Ye Xiaofan’s Sword Intent Realm was far from matching Luo Qingchen’s. However, defeat at the same realm meant total defeat; once that person steps into the Self-Slaying Realm, his achievements in sword intent will surely surpass the latter, perhaps even terrifyingly unimaginable.

And the shock wasn’t just from his victory in sword intent; what they found hard to accept was the terrifying comprehension of the other party—under the tip of the iceberg, it almost revealed a glimpse of that person’s overall comprehension.

"A terrifying dual-talent prodigy with unprecedented comprehension, possessing the awe-inspiring Martial Soul Awakening of divine level, an incomplete Innate Daluo Dao Body, oh God."

"Ye Xiaofan, is this Ye Xiaofan?"

"This person is already a terrifying existence beyond our comparison. In terms of potential alone, how many here can surpass this display of his?"

For a moment, all the senior brothers and sisters of the Divine Sword Sect were gasping for breath, unable to recover for a long time, until after a long while, one by one, they exclaimed in awe.

At the peak of Spirit Peak Number Three.

Beside Ning Xianna, the terrifying cousin in the Self-Slaying Realm stared dumbfounded at the scene atop the void, her previous composure had already vanished.

The latter’s chest heaved unpredictably, her eyes full of horror, even her delicate body trembled slightly as she said, "Xianhan, what did you just say? That lass Xianyi... broke off her engagement with Ye Xiaofan?"

After receiving confirmation from Ning Xianna, the cousin in the Self-Slaying Realm felt unwell; the individual’s previous performance coupled with such extraordinary comprehension ensures that as long as he lives, he will surely become an extraordinary figure in the future, a monstrous entity among prodigies unlikely to be found even in the Hundred Broken Mountain Range.

And yet, such a prodigious youth was abandoned by the Ning clan; for a great cultivation family, this was undoubtedly an unbearable loss.

Looking at Ning Xianna now, her expression was beyond her control, the immense shock already filled her beautiful eyes. Having witnessed that person’s journey, she knew that even with average comprehension, he was a terrifying existence that was spine-chilling.

And now, with this extraordinary comprehension, it’s fair to say he is one of the few peers in the Hundred Broken Mountain Range region.

Among those few, one has become the contemporary Saintess of the Divine Sword Sect, one is the Little Demoness of the Demonic Dao Sects, namely Yunmo Yue’s sister, and another is the contemporary Saint Heir of the Cyan Cloud Sect, as well as the first Holy Demon of the Demon Sect, ’Righteous Through the Clouds.’

Apart from the above four, the last remaining one is the contemporary first prodigy of the Divine Maiden Sect, the Divine Maiden Xi Li Chiyao.

These five, though not all possessing extraordinary comprehension, are remarkable in various aspects and almost represent the five pillars within the current ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain,’ the true dominators of the intermediate battle between righteousness and evil in the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain.’

Of course, it’s not that there isn’t anyone in the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain’ who can challenge these five; rather, these five represent the peak in terms of strength, prestige, and potential, the five peak figures in the ’Hundred Sects Battle Domain,’ standing as five unshakable ’Divine Mountains,’ towering over the five regions, pressing heavily on all ten directions.

And now, the Divine Sword Sect has birthed a figure with unprecedented comprehension, akin to a sixth ’Divine Mountain,’ even though this ’Divine Mountain’ has yet to reach maturity, it has already revealed itself.

The lower area of Spirit Peak Number Seventy-six.

The sisters Mu Xin and Mu Yan stared dumbfounded at the phantom of ’True Self of Sword Intent,’ their hearts unable to calm down.

"Sis, is he really the young man we saw in Star Moon City back then? Why do I feel like I’m dreaming, as if this isn’t real," Mu Xin whispered, the figure in her heart had completely transformed, gradually becoming unreachable.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yan also kept inhaling deeply, though she didn’t respond to her sister, the expression in her beautiful eyes had conveyed everything.

As everyone was deeply engulfed in shock, unable to extricate themselves.

In the distant void.

The unimaginably terrifying figure revealed a hint of a comforting smile, then bowed slightly to the ’True Self of Sword Intent’ from afar, slowly turned around, gazing toward the endless edge of the world.

This silent bow from Qin Yi wasn’t to his junior brother, but a gesture of gratitude in his heart, after this campaign, his guilt toward his master Dugu Nan had completely dissipated, with no more psychological burden left in his heart.

Of course, this bow also carried a silent gratitude toward that figure, Qin Yi’s gaze toward the edge of the world seemed to clear up, and after a calm smile, he took a step forward, walking slowly toward that corner of the world.

And this direction was the temporary residence of the endless forces of the Demon Sect, in the distant mountains and rivers, countless Demonic Cultivators were entrenched, strong as a forest, and prodigies abound.

Qin Yi, however, was resolute in going, lone yet determined, now that his inner knot was undone, he too wanted to do something he had always desired, even if it meant being torn to pieces, he wanted to die in the familiar land he had once traversed, burying his bones in this battle domain.

As Qin Yi walked away alone.

Above the boundless void.

Two ’True Self of Sword Intent’ gradually disappeared as well, scattering into the airspace.

At the peak of Spirit Peak Number Four.

Ye Xiaofan and Luo Qingchen almost simultaneously opened their eyes, filled with a different kind of expression.

Yet at the moment of awakening.

Numerous senior brothers and sisters in the Self-Slaying Realm nearby were staring dumbfounded at the figure, eyes full of indescribable shock and bewilderment, as if they had seen a ghost.

Until this moment, countless cultivators of the Divine Sword Sect still couldn’t recover, yet everyone’s gaze towards the figure had undergone a tremendous change, the entire temporary residence of the Divine Sword Sect was eerily silent at this moment.

Especially at the peak of Spirit Peak Number Four, everyone looked at that figure with a persistent hint of unfamiliarity, their hearts stirred with endless waves.

"Lost... lost? Brother Luo... lost after all?"
