My Seven Sisters Are Stunningly Beautiful (The Return of the Gods)

After another round of fighting, Lu Yun's heart suddenly shook, and his reaction suddenly slowed down, and he was knocked out by the mountain guard's sword.

The mountain guard succeeded in his attack but did not continue to attack. Instead, he stood with his sword in hand and looked at Lu Yun with a frown, "Why did you stop?"

In the previous fight between the two sides, although Lu Yun was weaker than him, he could feel that Lu Yun was constantly absorbing his swordsmanship through battle and his strength was steadily improving, while he was restricted by the rules of the land of inheritance and his strength was basically fixed.

According to the rule of decline and gain, it is only a matter of time before Lu Yun defeats him. He has even prepared himself to be defeated by Lu Yun and congratulates Lu Yun for passing the tenth level.

However, at the critical moment, Lu Yun gave up the opportunity to continue fighting, which made him confused for a moment and he didn't understand what Lu Yun was planning.

Lu Yun was knocked flying, and rolled several times in the air before he stabilized his body and fell to the ground. He covered his chest, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"You..." Lu Yun's eyes were full of disbelief, "What's wrong with me?"

The mountain guard put away his sword and stood up, looking at Lu Yun, and said calmly, "You ask me, who should I ask? You just suddenly seemed to have lost your soul. If you were not strong enough, you would be a corpse now."

Lu Yun ignored the mountain guard's teasing. He frowned and carefully recalled the feeling just now.

"Could it be..." Lu Yun's heart moved, and a bold idea came to his mind, "Could it be that I have touched that bottleneck?"

Since entering the inheritance land, Lu Yun has overcome many difficulties and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Especially after he comprehended "Sword Wandering in the Void", he felt that he had already stood at the pinnacle of the Taicang World and was hard to beat.

However, when he was fighting with the tenth-level mountain guardian, he vaguely felt that he seemed to have encountered an invisible barrier and could not break through it no matter how hard he tried.

At that moment just now, he felt as if his consciousness had entered a wonderful realm, and everything in front of him became extremely clear, including the mountain guard's sword moves, the surrounding space, and even time, all seemed to be clearly visible in front of him.

At that moment, he felt as if he had merged with the entire universe, and nothing in the world could escape his perception.

"I understand!" Lu Yun's eyes flashed with enlightenment, "It turns out that I have always been sitting in a well and looking at the world, thinking that 'Sword Traveling in the Void' is the limit of speed, but I didn't know that there are faster speeds and stronger powers in this world!"

"Thank you for showing mercy, senior," Lu Yun bowed and saluted, his tone sincere, "I didn't mean to stop, but..." He paused, as if organizing his words, trying to describe his feelings in the most concise way, "but I suddenly had an epiphany, and I need time to digest it."

The mountain guard was slightly startled. He had lived for countless years and naturally understood what the word "enlightenment" meant. Especially enlightenment in battle was a rare opportunity. He looked up and down at Lu Yun, as if he wanted to find out something from him, but in the end he shook his head.

"Epiphany?" The mountain guard snorted coldly, with a hint of doubt in his tone, "I see you don't want to win? Are you afraid that after you beat me, you will have to face a stronger opponent?"

Lu Yun smiled bitterly. He knew that the mountain keeper had misunderstood him, but he didn't want to explain too much. Sudden enlightenment is like drinking water. Only you know whether it is hot or cold. Even if you tell others about it, they may not understand it.

"Senior, you misunderstood," Lu Yun shook his head, his tone firm, "I have never thought of escaping, but..." He took a deep breath, his eyes became sharp, "It's just that I was too narrow-minded before, now I understand what true strength is!"

The mountain guard raised his eyebrows, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He heard something unusual in Lu Yun's tone, which didn't sound like a lie.

"Oh?" The mountain guard became interested, with a hint of amusement in his tone, "Then tell me, what is the real power?"

Lu Yun did not answer directly. He looked up at the sky. The vast starry sky seemed to be reflected in his eyes, full of longing for the unknown and desire to explore.

"I used to think that my sword traveled through the void, and that my speed had reached the limit of the Heavenly Dao of the Taicang World, and that I would be invincible," Lu Yun spoke slowly, with a hint of emotion in his tone, "but now I understand that there is more than one Heavenly Dao. Above the Taicang World, there is an even more vast Primal Chaos Universe, and the swordsmanship of the master of the inheritance land has long surpassed the Heavenly Dao limit of the Primal Chaos Universe!"

The mountain guard was silent. He did not expect that Lu Yun's enlightenment had reached such a profound level. This was no longer a simple understanding of the way of the sword, but a completely new understanding of the way of heaven and the universe.

"So," Lu Yun retracted his gaze and looked at the mountain guard, his eyes full of confidence and determination, "My previous battles were just from the perspective of a frog in a well, trying to guess how powerful you are, senior. Now that I have broken through my own bottleneck, I truly understand what the true way of the sword is!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely sharp sword intent suddenly burst out from Lu Yun. This sword intent was purer and sharper than before, like a giant sword that could split the world in half!

The mountain guard's pupils suddenly contracted. He felt a fatal threat from the sword intent. This was no longer a force he could resist!

"you……"

Before the mountain guard could finish his words, Lu Yun moved.

His figure turned into a stream of light, and he instantly came in front of the mountain guard. The long sword in his hand turned into a dazzling sword light, and he slashed towards the mountain guard with lightning speed!

This sword was as fast as lightning and unstoppable, containing Lu Yun's new understanding and perception of the way of the sword. Its power was more than ten times stronger than before!

"So fast!"

The mountain guard was so horrified that he didn't even have time to react. He could only watch the dazzling sword light coming towards him!

boom!

With a loud bang, the sword light slashed fiercely on the mountain guard. The terrifying power burst out instantly and blasted the mountain guard away!

puff!

The mountain guard spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale as paper, and his body fell heavily onto the martial arts stage, creating a deep hole in the hard rock ground!

"This... is such a powerful attack!"

The mountain guard struggled to stand up, but his injuries were too severe to move. He looked at Lu Yun in disbelief, his eyes full of shock and confusion.

"How is this possible? How did your strength suddenly increase so much?"

Lu Yun did not answer. He slowly put away his sword and stood up. The sword intent on his body gradually dissipated, as if the sword that had just destroyed the world was just an illusion.

"Senior, I accept it."

Lu Yun said calmly, without any trace of complacency in his tone, as if defeating the mountain guardian was just a trivial matter to him.

The mountain guard gave a bitter smile. He knew that he had been defeated, completely defeated. He originally thought that if Lu Yun wanted to pass the tenth level, he would need a long time of training, but he did not expect that Lu Yun would suddenly realize in the battle, and his strength would improve by leaps and bounds, breaking through the bottleneck in one fell swoop and reaching a height that he could not reach.

"I lost……"

The mountain keeper sighed, his tone full of loneliness and emotion.

"Congratulations, you are the first person to pass the level since the master of the inheritance land opened up this world."

The mountain guard looked at Lu Yun, with a complex look in his eyes, including envy, admiration, and a hint of...disappointment.
