“Who is he?”

“The one who is flying outside of Longqi Mountain, could he be the Dao

Ancestor?”

“No, he’s not the Dao Ancestor. The Dao Ancestor has more of a sage-like aura.

That person should be someone else.”

“Rumor has it that the Sword God is not dead. Instead, he is sweeping the floor for the Dao Ancestor. Could he be the Sword God?”

“Really? How is that sweeping the floor? This is obtaining the Dao Ancestor’s true teachings!”

“What a terrifying aura. Even my sword is trembling. Is this the legendary sword intent?”

In the capital, martial artists, commoners, merchants, and influential people were in a heated discussion. The breakthrough of the Sword God made them respect the Dao Ancestor even more.

Jiang Changsheng sat under the tree and silently looked up at the Sword God.

He discovered that the Sword God was different from the previous Sage Slaughter. Even though the former also relied on luck, when luck entered his body, he would soon erupt with even stronger luck to boost Great Jing. In turn, both sides would boost each other, and the only thing consumed was the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

The spiritual energy of martial arts was different from the purest spiritual energy. The denser the luck, the more abundant the spiritual energy of martial arts.

From the looks of it, the breakthrough of the Sword God would not attract any heavenly tribulation. Instead, it would only cause a spectacular change in luck.

This was right. After all, they were martial arts and followed the rules of the martial arts world.

Jiang Changsheng thought to himself while Bai Qi looked forward to it.

Such a phenomenon of luck shook the entire continent. The luck of all the dynasties on the continent fluctuated, but no natural disasters appeared.

Another hour passed.

The momentum of the Sword God reached the extreme before suddenly bursting out majestically. A wave of sword intent visible to the naked eye swept across the sky, sweeping across the sea of swords and expanding in all directions, causing more and more sword shadows to appear.

In less than ten breaths, the entire Si Province was filled with upside-down sword shadows. It was a spectacular sight.

The swords in the martial artists’ hands were also restless. Fortunately, they were not unsheathed.

The Sword God opened his eyes with an indifferent expression. He knew that he had successfully broken through.

He was fascinated by an unprecedentedly powerful true qi. But what excited him most was not the increase in his realm, but that his Sword Dao had reached an unprecedented height. He did not know what realm his sword intent had reached, but he knew that he was the number one swordsman in the history of the Dragon Vein Continent!

He even felt that he was invincible.

However, he soon came back to his senses and looked at Longqi Mountain with respect.

In his opinion, it was all thanks to the Dao Ancestor that he could break through. Not only did the Dao Ancestor spare his life, but he also kept him by his side.

Even though he had been living an ordinary life all these years, he had witnessed battles between Grotto-heaven realm experts. Through his experience, his state of mind far exceeded his past peak. Additionally, the Dao Ancestor’s few words could always benefit him greatly.

The Sword God took a deep breath and began to consolidate his strength.

At the same time, boundless luck spread out from his body and integrated into Great Jing’s luck.

He had become a part of Great Jing!

Emperor Shuntian felt the increase in Great Jing’s luck and laughed unbridledly.

True Dragon Temple…

The divine monk, Divine Monk Jia Ye, stood in the courtyard and looked at the sword shadows that filled the sky with shock.

“The Sacred Martial Realm… There are actually such martial artists hidden in Great Jing. If it’s not the Dao Ancestor, who…”

Divine Monk Jia Ye muttered to himself. He could sense that the other party had relied on the luck of Great Jing to break through, while the Dao Ancestor did not rely on luck.

At that moment, a young monk walked over and said with a smile, “Master, I guess it’s the Sword God. It’s rumored that the Sword God is still alive and many visitors have seen him before.”

“The Sword God? That’s right, this is indeed sword intent.”

Divine Monk Jia Ye lamented, “Great Jing is really amazing. In the long run, I’m afraid he won’t be satisfied with the Dragon Vein Continent and might aim for a higher level of luck.”

He was extremely glad that he had joined Great Jing. Otherwise, he would still be living a life of being hunted down.

The young monk asked curiously, “What is a higher level of luck?”

Divine Monk Kasyapa smiled and said, “When the luck of a dynasty reaches a certain level, you can be promoted to a Sovereign Dynasty. There is still a level above that, but it is beyond the reach of Great Jing.”

Even though Great Jing was powerful, in his opinion, its foundation was insufficient. It was only relying on the Dao Ancestor to be powerful.

However, it might be enough for the time being, but the future might not be the same. He began to look forward to participating in the construction of Great Jing.

The young monk wanted to ask more questions, but he could only give up when he saw Divine Monk Jia Ye turn around and leave.

There were not many disciples in the True Dragon Temple, but all of them had extraordinary talent and most of them had the background of the imperial court.

After the Sword God successfully broke through, he returned to the courtyard of Longqi Mountain.

After he landed, he respectfully bowed to Jiang Changsheng.

Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and asked with a smile, “Do you want to challenge me?”

The Sword God said seriously, “Of course I do, but I’m afraid of offending you.”

These words made the Sword God feel deep veneration.

Bai Qi also felt that he had the demeanor of an enlightened expert, but for some reason, he felt that the Sword God was in trouble.

Even though the Sword God’s breakthrough posture was very strong, she felt that he could not compare to Jiang Changsheng.

“Rest for seven days. At that time, challenge me in your strongest state. After that, if you wish to leave the mountain, I will not stop you,” Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and said.

The Sword God shook his head and said, “I will not go down the mountain. I am willing to follow you forever.”

He was a pure martial arts fanatic. He felt that he could only become stronger by following the Dao Ancestor. If he were to go down the mountain and run rampant on the continent, he would only obtain the emptiness of being alone. Compared to this false reputation, he was more concerned about his physical strength.

That day, Emperor Shuntian came to visit and congratulated the Sword God on entering the Grotto-heaven realm.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, the Sword God refused to go down the mountain, so he could only give up.

It was good that the Sword God did not leave the mountain. With him and the Dao Ancestor in the capital, Emperor Shuntian felt at ease.

The next day, Emperor Shuntian announced to the continent that he congratulated the Sword God of Longqi Temple for stepping into the Grotto-heaven realm and strengthening Great Jing’s luck.

This action informed all the martial artists of the existence of the Grotto-heaven realm, and at the same time, it also publicized its strength to the continent.

At this point, Great Jing had martial artists of various realms, such as the

Grotto-heaven realm, the Universe realm, the Golden Body realm, the True God realm, and so on. Its personal strength had far exceeded all the dynasties on the continent.

Six days later.

Jiang Changsheng and the Sword God left Longqi Temple and flew above the capital, thousands of feet away.

Jiang Changsheng stepped on the clouds and asked with a smile, “Do you need time to gather your strength?”

The Sword God carried his sword case and shook his head. “I don’t need to anymore.”

He raised his right arm, and in an instant, dozens of swords flew out from the sword box behind him and floated behind him. All of them pointed their tip at Jiang Changsheng, and sword shadows split out from these swords and covered the sky. In less than five breaths, Jiang Changsheng was surrounded by countless sword shadows.

This spectacular scene once again shocked the capital.

“The Sword God has taken action?” “Are there any enemies?”

“It’s too high. I can’t see it clearly.”

“I don’t think so. Perhaps the Dao Ancestor and the Sword God are comparing notes. Don’t forget, dozens of years ago, the Sword God entered Longqi Temple by challenging the Dao Ancestor.”

“The current Sword God can be considered the second strongest in the martial arts world of Great Jing. Tsk tsk, I wonder how many moves he can last against the Dao Ancestor?”

Even though the Sword God had broken through and the Emperor had announced to the continent, which made his reputation reach its peak, almost everyone believed that he was not the Dao Ancestor’s opponent.

The Dao Ancestor’s strength was not groundless. It was a real battle record and he was still a martial arts legend.

High up in the sky.

Jiang Changsheng was surrounded by countless sword shadows. He smiled and said, “Is this your Sword Dao? It’s not strong enough.”

The Sword God raised his eyebrows and said, “Of course not. Then please feel my new Sword Dao.”

“Previously, it was the sword of heaven and earth. Now, it is the Heavenly Dao!”

Heavenly Dao?

What an arrogant name!

I, a cultivator, have yet to call myself the Heavenly Dao!

Jiang Changsheng narrowed his eyes and slowly raised his right hand. The Nine Words of Truth condensed behind him.

The Sword God raised his hands and clenched his fist in the air. Sword Qi condensed into sword shadows in his palms. He waved his two swords. The sound was not loud, but his hands were extremely fast. Afterimages appeared, and they were ever-changing and dazzling.

In an instant, countless sword shadows trembled, as if the entire sky was fluctuating. It was exceptionally spectacular and shocking.

“Heavenly Dao, freeze!”

The Sword God shouted angrily and countless sword shadows besieged Jiang Changsheng.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Countless sword shadows struck Jiang Changsheng, but they were negated by an invisible barrier. They could not even damage his clothes.

The Sword God was not surprised. When he saw that there were still translucent sword shadows where those sword shadows were previously, these translucent sword shadows burst out with silver light and quickly connected. Hundreds of thousands of sword shadows connected together, as if they had torn the sky into countless pieces.

The Sword God threw out the two swords in his hands. Almost instantly, the boundless silver net formed by hundreds of thousands of sword shadows shrank.

The sky was like a net, the Sword of the Heavens!

Jiang Changsheng could sense that this sword net contained extremely powerful sword intent. The image of heaven and earth of ordinary Grotto-heaven realm experts was not so powerful.

The corners of his mouth curled up and his right hand pointed forward.

Whoosh!

A stream of energy shot out and the silver net of Sword Qi instantly shattered. Thousands of sword shadows dissipated and the energy rushed towards the Sword God with unstoppable force.

The Sword God widened his eyes, his pupils trembled, and he revealed an expression of disbelief.

Ultimately, the stream of energy hung in front of his forehead and was reflected in his eyes.

Cold sweat began to overflow from the Sword God’s forehead. He could sense the aura of death.

He did not expect that after his breakthrough, Jiang Changsheng would casually destroy his Sword Dao with a finger.

He knew this move, the Chen Family’s Qi Finger that Bai Qi regarded as trash. However, no matter how ordinary a martial art technique was, it was a peerless martial art technique in the hands of the Dao Ancestor.

Jiang Changsheng released his hand and the energy floating in front of the Sword God’s forehead dissipated like smoke.

“Not bad. Your Sword Dao has become much stronger. I got more serious than last time.”

Jiang Changsheng appeared in front of him out of nowhere and patted his shoulder to comfort him.

The Sword God forced a smile and said, “May I ask how much strength you used?” Jiang Changsheng pondered and said, “20%.”

20%…

The Sword God smiled bitterly.

Jiang Changsheng disappeared into the air and returned to the courtyard.

When Bai Qi saw that he had returned so soon, she could not help but shake her head. She looked up and saw the Sword God descending from the immortal mist and landing in the courtyard.

He took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Changsheng. “Dao Ancestor, you said that you only used 20%. May I ask if 100% is your full strength?”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and did not say anything.

Bai Qi could not help but say, “Old man, how dare you think that Master would need to use 20% of his full strength to beat you?”

The Sword God was silent.

Jiang Changsheng sat in front of the Earth Spirit Tree and said, “The Grotto-heaven realm requires the condensation of a grotto-heaven. You can still become stronger. Perhaps you can become stronger after creating a grotto-heaven for the Sword Dao.”

The Sword God forced a smile and said, “That was my grotto-heaven just now.

It was just scattered.”

“No, it’s not enough. That was definitely not the limit of your comprehension.” Hearing Jiang Changsheng’s words, the Sword God was moved and became excited.

I still have more potential?
