Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Chapter 712: Chapter 136: That Sword, Lighting Up the Entire Saint Mountain! (Seeking Monthly Votes)

In the moment the Dao fetus was shattered, Lin Qingyue felt as if her internal organs were being hollowed out, and a sharp pain pierced deeply into her Divine Soul, but she clenched her teeth and did not scream, refusing to give her adversary the pleasure.

If her master were here, he would certainly notice the abnormality, and there was hope for salvation.

In her eyes, sorrow surfaced as she looked over at the Half-Saint Elders, only to see faces with various expressions: sympathy, regret, indifference, yet all lofty and seemingly looking down upon the entire scene.

However, those expressions undoubtedly informed her that Haoyue Saint Son’s little maneuvers had not escaped their notice.

But why didn’t they stop him?

Lin Qingyue was stunned, suddenly feeling an icy coldness as if her blood had frozen.

...

Was it merely because she was not their disciple?

Lin Qingyue also saw the revered Sword Saint, who appeared indifferent, as if completely unaware, and in that moment, she suddenly came to a realization.

In just a brief breath, the warmth of bygone days seemed to have been pulverized; she suddenly confronted the underlying hue of the human world—the cold reality of self-interest.

Compared to Haoyue Saint Son, who had a greater hope of becoming a Saint, was she deemed worthy of being destroyed if it could serve as a stepping-stone to forge his invincible Dao Heart?

No wonder he dared to strike so ruthlessly on the battle platform—he had seen through this point long ago.

He had assassinated a fellow disciple, he was wrong, he had violated the Holy Land’s laws, he was wrong, but at the end of this fight, he would rise to the next level, with the prospect of becoming the Holy Land’s third Saint in the future!

And her, being crippled, would she be forgotten, having no backing? Although her grandfather was a senior Alchemist, at this level, he could essentially be ignored.

So, it turned out that no one cared about right and wrong.

The people above were indifferent, the people below could not see clearly.

The agonizing pain of the shattered Dao fetus didn’t make Lin Qingyue cry, but at that moment, tears painfully emerged at the corners of her eyes.

She suddenly felt a despairing sense of desolation.

But all of a sudden, a loud roar like a thunderclap that seemed to pierce the Soul rang out!

Lin Qingyue looked up in that direction and saw the familiar face of that youth, who used to be always smiling and carefree, now overwhelmed with righteous anger.

The face that always smiled cheerily and treated everything with indifference was actually capable of rage.

Lin Qingyue saw anger in those deep black eyes, and all of a sudden, her ice-cold heart felt a surge of warmth, and she felt as though color had returned to the world.

"Hm?”

Haoyue Saint Son heard the roar beside him, glanced over, but too lazy to care, withdrew his sword, then suddenly slashed out again.

"My beloved, destroying you is truly my last resort, not only your Dao fetus but also your proudest Sword Momentum. I must shatter it too, only then can I wound myself deeply enough!”

Haoyue Saint Son raised his sword, and atop its blade, accumulated an immense perfection of Sun and Moon Sword Intent, which bore the tendency to illuminate heaven and earth. The sword intent was dazzlingly brilliant, with the Sword Momentum appearing as if the great Sun hung high in the sky, making everyone feel insignificant.

"That’s the Sun and Moon Sword Intent!”

"Is this Haoyue Saint Son’s Sword Intent? It feels as if it encompasses All Phenomena.”

"I can see the Water System Sword Path and Fire System Sword Path within it.”

"No wonder he always says that other paths are minor; compared to his Sword Intent, my own truly seems biased.”

As that vast Sword Momentum took to the sky, countless people were shocked, including the numerous Saint heirs and saintesses on the Saint Platform, who were also astonished, feeling as if their spirits had been captured.

It was like holding a withered twig yet glimpsing a verdant mountain, suddenly realizing one’s own insignificance.

What was once regarded as a treasure, the withered twig, now seemed tasteless.

Standing in front of Haoyue Saint Son, Lin Qingyue, now enveloped by the Sun and Moon Sword Intent, felt it invade her Sea of Consciousness like a sharp sword, severing the gentlest Sword Intent in her heart.

It seemed as if a sharp snap and a sorrowful wail resonated in her mind.

Her body trembled, she suddenly spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, shaking all over, her sword-holding hand trembling incessantly, her eyes briefly glazed.

Boom!

A wave of Sword Intent swept across, sending the sword in her hand flying, twirling dozens of circles in the air before slanting down and planting itself into the battle platform.

"With the Sun and Moon high above, illuminating all things, heaven and earth shall reflect the light of my Sword Dao!”

At the same time, Haoyue Saint Son’s whole body ignited with Divine Flame, and a brilliant Divine Light shot out from his eyes, turning the hint of tenderness at the depth of his eyes into indifference.

In that moment, by destroying Lin Qingyue’s Dao fetus and Sword Intent, he completely embarked on the path of ruthlessness, his heart as if smelted by the Sun and Moon, feeling like he had become the Sun, Moon, and stars themselves, looking down on all beings and things.

This State of Mind lifted his Sun and Moon Sword Intent to a higher level, making it all the more terrifying.

"His Sun and Moon Sword Intent has become purer; this level of Sword Intent is truly top-tier.”

"He has only been cultivating for Sixty Years, his talent for Sword Dao is so monstrous, he may even have the potential for Ritual Path to Saint Ascension!”

"If he takes that path of Sacrificial Dao, it would be frightening.”

The Six Half-Saint Elders, including Yao Ancestor, all had solemn looks in their eyes.

His talent in Sword Dao was no less than theirs during their younger years, marking him as an extraordinarily monstrous talent.

Yao Ancestor’s gaze turned toward Sword Saint. That Haoyue had used Lin Qingyue to forge his Sword Dao had been obvious to them, but no one spoke up; after all, his master, Sword Saint, was present. They could see, how could Sword Saint remain unaware, and whether it was even something taught by him was unknown—this was also why they tactfully stayed silent.

Sword Saint looked on calmly, as if without joy or sorrow, merely observing quietly.

Meanwhile, on the platform, the Sun and Moon Divine Eye in Haoyue Saint Son’s eyes became even more resplendent as the Sword Intent coalesced, shining ever more brightly.
