Dao Ye is going to ascend

Chapter 717 Invincible in Three Realms, Supreme Profound Sword Lord (Two Chapters Combined)

Seeing that the Taoist was still looking around in the starry sky, as if he still wanted to release the demonic shadow to devour it, the sword light sneered inwardly. If it were not above the tenth level of the Sword Realm, it could not interfere too much.

He wished the garrison commander would kill him immediately!

"That hateful bastard!"

The sword light roamed through the void, overlooking the starry sky and observing other small grotto-heavens.

……

Huhu~
Li Yuan stood tall amidst the starry sky.

He silently adjusted his weapon-wielding talisman, gazing at the slowly approaching meteor. Far from being afraid, he felt a sense of anticipation.

Since joining Dongxuan Mountain, he has not made a move in the mortal world.

Because of his concern for the Tai Xu Mirror, he also had limited use of the Weapon Mastery Talisman on the Battle Arena and the Wei Tian Martial Arts Arena. As for the White-Clad Five Dragon Immortals...

"With these two new combinations of my mastery, even if a Five Dragon Immortal suddenly appears in this sword realm, I might still be able to put up a fight!"

As his turbulent emotions gradually subsided, Li Yuan adjusted his state of mind.

His Niwan trembled slightly, his nine true forms were poised to be unleashed, the Xuan Teng tree swayed gently, and within its shadow, the shadow demon sat cross-legged, its myriad demonic shadows spreading throughout his body via the divine realm.

The nine-layered bloodbath destroyed most of the demonic shadows, but the remaining half still contained more than 200,000 strands of shadow magic power with quality approaching the top grade!

Within his dantian, the five strands of golden essence that had transformed the Demon-Refining Immortal-Slaying Sword were also trembling, as if they were waiting to be unsheathed.

"Om~"

Under Li Yuan's watchful gaze, the meteorite stopped thousands of miles away.

From here, he could see an unassuming old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged on the meteorite. Behind him, strange scenery appeared, including mountains and rivers, with nine ancient temples within.

Before him stood a sword box about ten feet tall, and on his knees lay a pale gold ancient scroll.

【Tai Xuan Sword Scripture (Part 1) (Level 17)】

Even across the vast starry sky, Li Yuan could feel the sharp aura rushing towards him, and the name of this sword scripture naturally came to mind.

"It can be controlled!"

Li Yuan's eyes immediately lit up.

Although the perception was extremely vague, its grade was actually as high as seventeenth level, and this was only the first volume!

"This person……"

Li Yuan focused his senses and saw the old Taoist's identity on the meteorite.

[...Mu Xiantian, Grand Elder of the Tai Xuan Sword Sect...]

"Tai Xuan Sword Sect?"

Li Yuan had an idea in his mind, and thanks to his intelligence search, he actually found information about this person.

To be precise, it's intelligence about this person.

Tai Xuan Sword Sect originated from one of the holy lands of swordsmanship during the peak of the Divine Dynasty. Its disciples are numerous and powerful, and it is revered by all realms.

Even after countless ages have passed and the sword has disappeared, the Tai Xuan Sect remains the strongest holy land in the Beidou Realm!
This Mu Xiantian was an ancient god worshipped by the Tai Xuan Sect many centuries ago. He later seemed to have disappeared into the depths of the Ruins of Return, and gradually, his reputation became less than that of his little disciple, the 'Sword Spirit God'.

"This Mu Xiantian, even if he isn't a Dao Lord, is probably among the strongest people below the Dao Lord level..."

Li Yuan's eyelids twitched.

The guardian of the tenth level of the Sword Realm is actually an existence of this level?
What about the eleventh and twelfth floors?
They're all Dao Lords?!
"No wonder so few people can defeat the tenth level of the Sword Realm..."

Li Yuan frowned.

The Sword Realm is not a battle arena. From the first level onwards, it is a life-or-death struggle with powerful individuals who have reached the peak of the three realms. Even the most outstanding geniuses will not be at their peak when they reach the tenth level.

If one is unlucky, like Yu Wangxian, he was severely injured and exhausted when he finished the ninth level. Even if he still had some strength left, he dared not step into the tenth level.

[...He was named Xiantian because he was born with an 'Innate Sword Body'...At the height of his fame, he sought a sword from my sect. Although he failed, his swordsmanship, techniques, and principles were quite commendable...]

"Innate Sword Body, this is Senior Brother Fufa's physique, also a killing body, but not as good as the Sword Saint Body..."

Li Yuan compared the information from the meteorite with the intelligence he had gathered.

"This 'I' should be 'Sword Lord Tai Xuan'..."

Based on the intelligence he had gathered, Li Yuan already knew who the sword Dao Lord who left the stele was: the 'Tai Xuan Sword Marquis' of the Origin Divine Dynasty nine eras ago!
"Chi~"

At that moment, Li Yuan's heart stirred.

Above the meteorite, the sword box before the old Taoist priest cracked open, and then a dazzling light tore through the starry sky, multiplying into two, then four, then eight...

In the blink of an eye, it had transformed into thousands of sword lights, crisscrossing and intertwining, evolving into a myriad of destructive phenomena!

"What a sword!"

Li Yuan inwardly praised him.

His senses were sharp; amidst the intertwining sword lights, he could feel hundreds of sword techniques flowing through him. This single sword strike was enough to shatter Lin Yue's demonic body.

And such sword light, there must be countless of them in that sword box!

"Wow!"

Li Yuan leaped into the air, and the sound of thousands of phoenixes singing seemed to emanate from his body, indicating that he had activated the divine power of Suppressing Prison.

Facing such a powerful opponent, even though they were both at the same third realm, he dared not be careless in the slightest. As he stepped forward, a dark purple light flowed across his body, and the Xuan Teng tree transformed into armor to protect him.

"Woo~"

With a single step, he traversed ten thousand miles. Li Yuan extended one arm, five-colored light flowing between his fingers. This was the 'Five Elements Divine Light,' which he had cultivated diligently for half a year and was beginning to show its brilliance.

"Ok?"

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword, which was observing the battle from the void, trembled slightly. It had excellent eyesight and could tell at a glance that this kid possessed body-refining supernatural abilities, and that he was much stronger than it had expected.

In its perception, it seemed as if a great demon had awakened within its body, unleashing an astonishingly powerful force.

"boom!"

Under the watchful gaze of the Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword, in less than a fraction of a second, the thousands of interwoven sword lights were pierced through by the five-colored interwoven palm print.

"Chi~"

One sword destroys, and ten thousand more are born.

The old Taoist priest, who had been sitting cross-legged, had somehow stood up. He slapped his hand on the sword box, and thousands of sword energies burst forth from the box, crisscrossing and intertwining like a celestial river pouring down.

"roar~"

The cries of countless swords merged into a dragon's roar, the torrent of sword light rolling like a dragon, the terrifying killing intent surging in all directions, and the chilling aura freezing the void.

This is pure killing sword light, but it contains a large number of spells.

As Li Yuan raised his hand to shatter the first sword light, he instantly felt dozens, even hundreds, of various spells raining down on him: immobilization, immobilization, illusory fixation, curses...

Even with the power to suppress the prison, he felt his body stiffen.

It was only a brief pause, so brief that even ordinary cultivators at the third realm wouldn't notice it, but the old man's control over time was clearly extremely exquisite.

At the same moment of pause, the sword dragon formed by the intertwining of countless killing sword lights swallowed Li Yuan into its belly!

"boom!"

The sword rang out, dazzling and brilliant, like a sword lotus blooming, bursting forth with the ultimate destructive sound.

This sword dragon contains nine killing sword energies, each of which is a top-level killing spell formed by combining the essence of many spells. When the nine are combined into one, even a cultivator of the fourth realm will have their spiritual treasures, body, and protective spells destroyed!

Even reaching the Niwan Divine Realm!

Severing the body, severing the spirit!

"what?"

Upon hearing this sword strike, the Taixu Tongtian Sword let out a surprised exclamation.

Almost simultaneously, Li Yuan stepped out from the killing sword light that was almost at the limit of the third realm. The tree armor on his body was broken, but it healed at an extremely fast speed.

This sword dragon was extremely fierce and ruthless. It pierced through the 'defense armor' he controlled and even injured the tree armor, but it had not yet been able to touch his body.

"He is better than Lin Yue and even better than Senior Brother Huang Yuan, but he is far inferior to the White-Clad Five Dragon Immortals."

With a wave of his hand, Li Yuan shattered the sword light that filled the sky, and he already had a rough idea of ​​the strength of the person in front of him.

Even without the blessing of the Military Commander's Register, the odds against him are at most 60/40.

And if we add the Military Command Register...

"Om~"

The moment he stepped out, Li Yuan activated the 'Slaughter Set' of the Military Scroll.

In less than a moment, most of the magical power he had cultivated had been burned away, but the Shadow Demon Body resided in the acupoints around his body, and the loss was replenished in an instant.

"This is true power..."

Li Yuan let out a long breath, feeling as if the starry sky around him had become incredibly fragile. Then, his five-colored intertwined hands suddenly clenched together and gently extended.

"?!"

The moment Li Yuan threw a punch, the Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword trembled violently, instantly communicating with the Sword Realm, only to receive the answer that it was not caused by external force.

'Could this be a supernatural power he cultivated himself?!'

The thought of the Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword hadn't even crossed his mind yet.

With a muffled 'poof' sound, the meteorite, the old Taoist, and the starry sky behind them were all engulfed by the fist light interwoven with five-colored rays!

In a truly significant way, it was even more devastating!
That innate Daoist figure possessed all the spells of the person at the third realm, and its reaction was extremely fast. When the sword strike failed, it had already exhausted all its spells.

Nine ancient temples rose behind him, their sword light as cascading as a waterfall, enough to deter any cultivator of the third realm from facing them directly, yet they were extinguished with a single punch.

His protective magic was as thin as paper, collapsing with a single blow!

"Boom!"

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword trembled violently, and a loud roar resounded. The tenth level of the Sword Realm was about to be destroyed. It suddenly came to its senses, and a ray of sword light shot out, freezing the tenth level of the Sword Realm.

"Cool!"

After throwing a punch, Li Yuan felt a sense of relief throughout his body.

The new 'offensive set' greatly enhanced him. Although it put immense pressure on his physique at that moment, the Prison Suppression Divine Power could completely withstand it.

With both factors combined, he felt that apart from the Five Dragon Immortals, perhaps no one in the Three Realms could rival him!
"This good deed was well worth it, absolutely worth it!"

Li Yuan was satisfied, feeling that even if he were to fight the Five Dragon Immortals again, he might still have a chance of winning.

He dispelled the blessing of the weapon-wielding talisman and looked up. The old Taoist priest had vanished without a trace, but the scroll of sword scripture remained.

"According to the intelligence, the ninth level of the Sword Realm only requires one battle, while the tenth level seems to require two battles?"

A thought flashed through Li Yuan's mind.

In the distance, the scroll of sword scripture trembled slightly, and a rainbow light disappeared into the depths of the starry sea. Faintly, one could see one meteor after another flowing around.

It seems that the sword world is evaluating him, or perhaps choosing an opponent for him?
Which one to choose?

In the void, the Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword trembled violently. It couldn't help but communicate with the Sword Realm. The boy's power suddenly increased dramatically. This was definitely not the ability of the Chaos Saint Body!
Let alone the fact that he is only a Chaotic Dharma Body, even if he reversed the innate Chaotic Saint Body, he still couldn't do it!
but……

"He really fixed it himself?!"

Sensing the Sword Realm's response, the Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword wished it could personally go down and try, but this was obviously not allowed by the Sword Realm, so it could only reluctantly make its choice.

But this selection process is truly giving it a headache. This kid's sudden surge in power has already exceeded the scope of the third realm. There is no Dao Lord or Dao Shadow in the tenth level of the Sword Realm, so it is feared that there is no way to restrain this person.

"Should we just let him take the Tai Xuan Sword Scripture?"

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword was somewhat unwilling and filled with regret.

Even a cultivator with an innate Dao body cannot maintain peak condition when climbing the Sword Realm from the first to the ninth level, let alone the fact that it would adjust itself in the past.

For example, when the Sword Realm opened last time, the bearded man with the innate Yang Body encountered carefully selected opponents when he was at the eighth or ninth level.

As a result, although he broke through nine levels, he was seriously injured and his magic power was less than one-tenth of its peak, so he was powerless to step into the tenth level.

According to it, the demonic cultivator's skill level was at most six or seven levels, so it kicked him to the ninth level, intending to kill him...

As a result of a series of unexpected events, the demonic cultivator himself entered the tenth level in peak condition.

Moreover, the person's strength far exceeded his expectations.

"How to do how to do?"

Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword was somewhat anxious. This was not a Primordial Sword Dao Saint Body, nor even a Primordial Dao Body. How could it be allowed to take away the Tai Xuan Sword Scripture?

However, the rules of the Sword Realm dictate one-on-one combat, making it impossible for the Sword Realm to unleash a large number of guardians even if it wanted to. And in a one-on-one situation...

"boom!"

Suddenly, it heard a roar.

Suddenly focusing his mind, he saw a dazzling divine light in the starry sky. The Taoist soared into the sky, and the light of all kinds of escape techniques shone brightly. He actually took the initiative to meet the meteorite group.

"He is..."

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword was startled and didn't react for a moment, but then it trembled violently and realized something was wrong.

"boom!"

Li Yuan traversed the Milky Way, thousands of miles away, and threw a punch!
He certainly didn't intend to challenge all the guardians of the tenth level of the Sword Realm alone. Rather, he had a guess in his mind when the meteor kept turning but no opponent appeared for a long time.

"Boom!"

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword was a beat too slow. When it reacted, a loud bang was heard, and a meteorite shattered. Immediately afterward, the ten layers of the Sword Realm collapsed.

The young man, however, gave a knowing smile, as if he had guessed something.

"Bastard!"

The Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword was furious, but it could only watch helplessly as the boy raised his hand and grabbed the Tai Xuan Sword Scripture, and instead of retreating as it had expected, it did not do so.
Instead, he stepped into the eleventh level of the Sword Realm!
……

"This journey is not ominous..."

Outside the Sword Realm, Daoist Fufa had a cold and aloof expression, as if he wanted to keep strangers away. He stared at the Sword Realm light screen in the sky and used many spells and even supernatural powers.

But no matter what, he couldn't see through the light screen, nor could he predict Li Yuan's current state.

All that could be seen within the sword realm's light screen were black dots rising and falling intermittently, and the black dots on the tenth level of the sword realm...

"The eleventh floor!"

Suddenly, a cry of alarm rang out, and the great cultivator's divine sense surged, causing the entire Sword God Continent to rumble, demonstrating his extreme shock.

quiet!
After the great cultivator exclaimed in surprise, the area outside the Sword Realm suddenly fell silent, as if you could hear a pin drop.

Including the stern-faced Fufa Daoist and the murderous Jiuji Tian standing with his arms crossed, everyone's gaze fell on the light screen of the eleventh level of the Sword Realm!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, a figure broke through the tenth barrier and stepped into the eleventh floor!
"The eleventh floor!"

Upon witnessing this scene, even the Taoist priest Fufa was shaken.

"Isn't this Junior Brother Li?"

The Taoist priest couldn't help but calculate with his fingers, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty.

He had not yet completed his divine palace in the past, which led to his narrow defeat at the ninth level. He was naturally very clear about the difficulty of climbing the sword realm.

While Li Yuan certainly has the strength to reach the top of the regional battle rankings, according to his estimation, he is at most similar to Yu Wangxian back then. How could he possibly reach the tenth level?
"Could it be that those two Dao Lords have taken a liking to my junior brother and are deliberately going easy on him?"

The Taoist priest of the Floating Dharma made a guess in his heart.

Outside the Sword Realm, after a brief silence, an uproar erupted as powerful divine thoughts surged forth.

"The eleventh level of the Sword Realm!"

"The last cultivator to reach the eleventh level of the Sword Realm seemed to be that Dao Lord from three centuries ago, right?"

"In the tenth level of the Sword Realm, one is bound to encounter a powerful Dao Shadow at the Innate Dao Body level. This person has only been in the tenth level for a short time, yet he has already broken through?"

"Who is this person?!"

The great cultivators were all shocked and exchanged glances, wanting to know who the cultivator who had broken into the eleventh level was. Many cultivators had already started to divine.

For example, the Nine Extremes Heaven.

The swirls behind his head as he constantly pinches his fingers, using various supernatural powers and spells to try and divine the person's identity.

If he didn't only have one chance, he would have even wanted to use the Great Luo Diagram!
"There must be a sword manual on the eleventh floor!"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren couldn't help but clench his fingers. The Tai Xuan Sword Scripture was a divination he had made for his master, the 'Jade Capital Dao Lord,' and it was the most suitable path for him to break through the Eight Realms.

"Who will it be?"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren looked around.

A group of powerful cultivators at the sixth or seventh level were all asking about this person's identity, while many cultivators who had fallen out of the Sword Realm were all holding knowledge orbs, seemingly taking photos or doing something else.

"Float glass..."

Fu Jiu Dao Ren's eyes narrowed as he noticed that the boy named Li Yuan had disappeared from the side of the three true disciples of Dongxuan Mountain.

"Brother!"

Fu Xiong Daoist had been watching him closely, and when he saw him looking at the three true disciples of Dongxuan Mountain again, he felt an immense headache coming on.

"Where did that kid go?"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren inquired via telepathy.

"what?"

Daoist Fuxiong was taken aback, then shook his head: "I have been keeping an eye on the entrance to the Sword Realm. That kid did not enter the Sword Realm. He must have been protected by those three..."

"is it?"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren was somewhat disappointed. In fact, he had been watching the Sword Realm Gate all along, and no one could enter or leave without his knowledge.

"Senior brother suspects it's this kid?"

Fu Xiong Dao Ren understood what he meant, but he simply didn't believe it.

While the Chaos Saint Body is indeed one of the nine legendary Saint Bodies, there have been instances of Chaos Saint Bodies entering the Sword Realm over the past nine eras, though none seem to have broken through to the eleventh level.

In fact, since the beginning of the Nine Eras, very few people have been able to break through to the tenth level of the Sword Realm, let alone the eleventh level.
"With eleven feet of killing intent, one's luck isn't too bad, and one will definitely be able to break through to the tenth level. With eighteen feet of killing intent, one has a chance to break through to the eleventh level!"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren was very knowledgeable about the Sword Realm. He had met many cultivators who had broken through to the ninth level, and had even paid respects to several great cultivators who had broken through to the tenth level.

"This……"

Fu Xiong Dao Ren frowned.

“Junior brother, back when you reached the peak of the third realm, your killing aura was only nine zhang at most. I have seen countless cultivators at the third realm, but only that kid's killing aura can reach eighteen zhang!”

"If you were to fight him at the same level, even if you exerted all your strength, you might still be killed by him in just a few moves!"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren patiently explained one sentence.

"..."

Why don't you use yourself as an example?

Fu Xiong Dao Ren was speechless, but he couldn't help but waver a little.

"Otherwise, why do you think I would be willing to apologize to that unforgiving lawbreaker?"

Fu Jiu Dao Ren lowered his eyelids.

"Is it really that kid?"

Now that Fu Xiong Daoist believed it, he couldn't help but gasp in astonishment: "That's the eleventh floor!"

"Whether it's him or not, we'll know when the Sword Realm closes."

Fu Jiu Dao Ren calmed his mind, and his divine sense surged and spread outwards, covering the entire Sword God Continent from beyond the void. No fluctuation could escape his notice.

His aura surged, causing the group of great cultivators to frown, and many of them had unfriendly expressions, but seeing that it was the Nine Extremes Heaven, no one dared to make a move.

……

"It really was that Tai Xuan Tong Tian Sword that was behind this!"

Surrounded by intertwined light and shadow, before stepping into the eleventh floor, Li Yuan focused his gaze and looked back, and sure enough, he saw a wisp of vibrating sword light in the void below.

Its aura was terrifying, almost omnipresent, which is why he was able to sense it.

"Is this targeting only me, or all cultivators who have entered the realm?"

Li Yuan made a guess in his heart.

Considering that no one had been able to ascend and break through the Sword Realm for millions of years during the Nine Eras, he suspected it was the latter.

In fact, he had already had some doubts when he saw the book "Detailed Explanation of the Tomb of the Sword God" that Fufa Daoren had given him.

The reason is simple: according to the intelligence reports of many cultivators who have climbed to the eighth or ninth level, the difficulty of each level in the Sword Realm is not uniform, and some even failed at the eighth level.

"Even if Daojun was young, he was only at the third realm, and it was impossible for him to withstand the scheme of that sword!"

"Therefore, the greatest danger in climbing the Sword Realm is that sword itself, and only secondly, the Dao Shadow within the Sword Realm!"

"Even for me, if I were to encounter an opponent at Mu Xiantian's level from the very first level, I would likely be injured by the time I reached the eleventh level, and I wouldn't be able to be at my peak condition!"

In the few moments before stepping onto the eleventh floor, countless thoughts raced through Li Yuan's mind.

"Om~"

The light and shadow before my eyes disappeared.

Li Yuan looked up and saw that it was still a desolate void before him. The difference was that there was a huge lotus vine in the starry sky.

Looking up along the long vine, you can see three lotus flowers that are completely interwoven with sword energy.

Above the three sword lotuses sat three ancient temples, and within each temple sat three sword immortals, one of whom was very old, with a sword across his knees, his aura ethereal.

A tall, imposing man, with a sheathless flying sword swirling around him.

Inside the ancient temple in the center was a young sword immortal, empty-handed and without any possessions, yet he resembled the sharpest divine sword, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura.

"Eleven floors, three matches required!"

Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he became increasingly convinced that his guess was correct.

Apart from him, even if a Dao Lord or even a young God King fought his way to the eleventh floor, facing three Dao Lords and their shadows in a weakened state, he would likely still be defeated.

Yes, upon that lotus flower are the images of three Dao Lords!

Or rather, they are three Daoist figures transformed from a Daoist Lord.

In the very center of the ancient temple is the young Tai Xuan Sword Lord, who appears to be the strongest but is actually the weakest. Next is the tall, imposing man, and the strongest is undoubtedly the old man.

"...In my youth, my innate sword-wielding physique was not yet fully developed..."
