Chapter 850: Chapter 846: Retracting the Sword

Once the thought arose, it became unstoppable.

To harness it for oneself, one must come into contact with it.

However, even the Heavenly Illusion Pavilion, which could manipulate illusions, couldn’t deal with a sword and a stone.

Then, several birds descended from the sky, shooting straight towards the sword.

”Bang, bang, bang, bang...”

The birds were bounced back into the air, recovering and swooping down again.

”Bang, bang, bang, bang...”

The dull thuds continued, as each bird collided with an invisible barrier, only to be rebounded into the air.

Yet, fearlessly, they continued their assault time and again, undeterred by the blood at their beaks.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Once they flew up again, they didn’t fall back down, flying off into the distance, disappearing from sight.

The Heavenly Illusion Pavilion relinquished its control, and they immediately regained clarity, fleeing as if avoiding a deadly plague.

Chu Zhiyuan furrowed his brows.

The defensive barrier formed by the giant stone was difficult to deal with, and the power of these demon beasts was insignificant.

Even if all the demon beasts within ten miles of the mountain peak were mobilized to attack, they couldn’t destroy this protective barrier.

There’s no point in wasting effort.

I’ve reached the Third Transition, three times stronger than before.

However, the level of my Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm isn’t closely tied to the Realm of the Venerable.

The power of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm comes from the Realm of the Heavenly Dragon Introduction and the Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm itself.

Then, he punched out again and again, each punch imprint colliding with the invisible barrier.

”Pop, pop, pop, pop...”

The barrier rippled like a lake, waves radiating outward one after another.

Chu Zhiyuan squinted slightly, revealing a smile.

The Infinite Brightness Scripture advanced a level, naturally advancing his understanding of the Great Brightness Fist, enhancing its power significantly.

Though not as powerful and domineering as the Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm, it was superior in its subtlety.

Through the Great Brightness Fist, he faintly perceived the structure of the defense, adjusting the Great Brightness Fist accordingly.

After reaching the Spirit Transformation Level, the Great Brightness Fist focused on subtlety and precision.

The strength of the fist altered at will, being hard or soft, horizontal or vertical, all changing with his thought, allowing for fine adjustments.

Just like a master butcher dismembering an ox, it was relaxed and nimble, using skill to overcome clumsiness.

She adjusted the strength of her fist slightly, contending with the defense’s barrier.

The forces from three directions blended but weren’t seamless; they had a structure.

And the Great Brightness Fist tried to disrupt this structure, to dismantle the protective shield.

He punched one after another, stopping after over two hundred punches.

The fact proved that the defense was truly formidable, despite the Great Brightness Fist’s ability to pry at its structure, it couldn’t destroy the barrier.

He frowned at the peak, drawing insight from the stone and the ancient sword.

Force wouldn’t work; instead, how to skillfully dismantle the shield and approach them?

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Illusion Pavilion was just a projection and couldn’t go directly.

Also, unfortunately, his Flying Knife couldn’t get in either.

His mind raced for a breakthrough as another spark of insight unfolded in the midst of deep pondering.

He realized the Miao Ling Pearl had been the most beneficial to him since he embarked on cultivation.

The Miao Ling Pearl kept him in a state of constant enlightenment.

He slowly closed his eyes, retracted his breath, and focused on his feet.

A slight concentration, and his feet felt expansive as if magnified thousands of times.

They seamlessly merged with the earth, while the forces within the earth rolled like waves in the ocean, exerting energy intertwined.

He concentrated further, tracing the earth’s power and, through the projection of the Heavenly Illusion Pavilion, perceiving the connection between the stone and the earth.

Concentrate and concentrate deeper, more subtle and subtle.

Time slowly passed.

Completely focused, he ignored everything else, indifferent to the passage of time.

The sun crossed from east to west, setting, and the Bright Moon appeared.

The Bright Moon traversed the sky, set again, and the eastern sun rose anew.

Gold rays shone on him motionless, resembling a statue.

A strikingly handsome statue.

Under the golden illumination, Chu Zhiyuan suddenly opened his eyes, breaking into a smile.

The smile spread across his entire face, and the surrounding air seemed to smile with him, becoming relaxed and easy.

”Haha...”

The smile turned into laughter.

Laughing, he stepped forward, entering the mountain peak, and with no more barriers to hinder him.

He floated like a stream of light, arriving by the stone in the blink of an eye.

After a day and a night of meticulous study and sensation, he finally utilized the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record to find the connection between the stone and the earth’s power.

Yongquan began to absorb this power, and thus, the shield that once blocked him no longer did.

It was as if they became family, no longer seen as enemies keeping him out.

He approached the stone with no obstruction.

Standing before the stone, he reflected.

The miracle techniques he practiced were endlessly profound, far from fully explored.

The wonders of their use lie in the mind.

Who could have thought the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record could be used like this?

He slowly extended his hand.

The touch was cold as if it were ice, a chill invaded his heart.

Next, a warm breath melted it.

The ubiquitous power of the Heavenly Dragon Introduction spontaneously activated, melting it away.

Super Sense provided another insight.

This time, with his palm against the stone, he saw more clearly, more deeply.

He also realized this stone was transformed by the power of the ancient sword.

Thus, it possessed the ability to connect with the earth, serving as a tool, a subordinate of the ancient sword.

He leaped onto the stone, reaching the ancient sword.

Up close, the ancient sword still appeared unimpressive, without anything unusual.

He stared at the divine language, scenes flashed before his eyes.

Simultaneously, he faintly sensed the divine language gathering power, restoring the ancient sword.

The ancient sword seemed on the verge of collapse.

He frowned, leaping up, stepping on the sword’s hilt with his right foot.

Suspended in mid-air, striking a peculiar pose, precisely the First Form of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.

The force of the Spiritual Abyss surged forth, penetrating his feet, his feet becoming infinitely vast, accommodating everything, merging with the earth.

At the same time, the ancient sword suddenly brightened, an eerie light flashed across the sword.

The previously old and plain sword began to shimmer with patterns.

The patterns brightened gradually, golden light traversing them, increasing in speed.

The sword brightened more and more, ultimately bursting into dazzling golden light, impossible to gaze directly at.

As the golden light expanded, the ancient sword began to shrink, becoming smaller and smaller.

As it shrank, the golden light grew more brilliant, like a miniature sun, impossible to gaze directly at.

It finally entered into Chu Zhiyuan’s right foot Yongquan, merging with the golden light.

Chu Zhiyuan’s right foot emitted golden light, and then his left foot began to emanate gold as well.

Both feet turned into two golden feet, radiating golden light.

A crack suddenly appeared in the stone.

Once the crack emerged, it rapidly elongated and then began to spread.

Ultimately forming a web-like crack, spreading across the entire stone.

When Chu Zhiyuan lightly landed on it, these web-like cracks instantly expanded.

Chu Zhiyuan looked down at the stone turned to dust beneath his feet, shaking his head in reflection.

And so, the task accomplished, it withdrew.

He collected the Swift Sword, and the stone also completed its mission.

Having existed for tens of thousands of years, it was finally liberated.

Chu Zhiyuan couldn’t help feeling a tinge of melancholy.

In the river of time, it seems nothing is eternal.

Can I cultivate to the realm of immortality?

He soon shrugged off the melancholy, overtaken by excitement, having been able to collect spiritual objects.

Could it mean that I could continue collecting other spiritual objects?

An hour later, he stood on another mountain peak a hundred miles away, seeing a long knife he wanted to absorb, only to realize he’d been too optimistic.

Outside of the Yongquan on both feet, he was unable to absorb any more spiritual objects.
