Translator: 549690339

Ding Jiansheng, who had always been proud of himself, led Han Yi seemingly like a mortal, with a face full of reverence, and took one step at a time towards the real Chi Xiao Mountain. He turned his head and glanced at Han Yi behind him, his expression full of awe, turning complicated.

“The Heavenly Mechanics Feast is only over three years away. Three years ago, my friend, you were only at the Foundation Building late stage. Now, you are at the Foundation Establishment Peak. This level of progress makes some like myself feel inferior.”

Ding Jiansheng’s expression was complex, precisely because of Han Yi s cultivation base, which had greatly improved almost every time they met.

The first time they met was on the Emperor’s birthday party in Treasured Jade Heaven. Han Yi overwhelmed many geniuses and took the limelight, which ignited Ding’s desire for a battle, but he knew at that time that seizing the Spiritual Jade was more important. As for fighting against this fellow cultivator with an astonishing sword skill, it could be postponed.

However, he did not know that after that, there would be no more chances.

The second time they met was at the Heavenly Mechanics Feast. He advanced to the Foundation Building Middle Level with the help of the Spiritual Jade, while Han Yi was already at the Foundation Building late stage. Ding started with the Chixiao Sword Skill, launching three swords together, but Han Yi easily dodged and circled around him with sword control before he could react. If it hadn’t been a performance but a life-and-death fight, he would have been killed.

The third time was when he went to the Profound Immortal Pavilion to invite Han Yi to come to Chi Xiao Mountain to leave a Sword Mark. At that time, although Han Yi was still at the Foundation Building late stage, his aura had improved. The invitation was fruitless, and Han Yi easily overturned the challenge.

Now, it was their fourth encounter.

Following Ding Jiansheng, Han Yi’s eyes revealed curiosity and solemnity.

This Immortal Mountain, located in the deepest part of Chi Xiao Sword Sect, was neither tall nor magnificent. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was quite ordinary.

But when Han Yi’s eyes changed form, emitting a faint golden light, and he observed with the Qi Observation Skill, every grass, tree, sand, and stone on both sides of the mountain path leading to the top of the mountain emitted deep, sharp, domineering, or gentle sword intent, as if these things were not material objects but transformed from sword intent.

According to the legend.

Chi Xiao Mountain came first, then Chi Xiao Sword Sect.

Another rumor.

Chi Xiao Mountain is not just a mountain, but a Half-Immortal Item, which is the foundation of Chi Xiao Sword Sect.

Perhaps due to Han Yi’s insufficient cultivation base, he could not see anything other than the sword intent of this Immortal Mountain.

He withdrew his gaze, looked at Ding Jiansheng walking ahead, and said with a smile:

“I just had some chances and luckily reached my current cultivation base. My friend Ding need not belittle himself. Each one’s fate is different.”

Han Yi was not arrogant or complacent.

He knew very well that his realm was higher and his strength was stronger than Ding Jiansheng’s, but only because he had gone through many trials and tribulations over the years to reach this point.

However.

During this time, he met many people and experienced many things, and he began to think about the subtle relationship between disasters and cultivation base, realm and skills.

There would have been no such thoughts in the past.

There was a saying in his previous life that very well put: it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.

The same is true for cultivation.

“By the way, my friend Ding, it is rumored that Chi Xiao Mountain is the foundation of your Sword Sect. Why would you invite foreign swordsmen to leave Sword Marks, aren’t you afraid that they will learn your sword skills or peek into the secrets of Chi Xiao Mountain?”

He had doubts about this when Ding Jiansheng came to the Profound Immortal Pavilion to invite him three years ago, but he was not invited at the time, so he didn’t ask on the spot.

Ding Jiansheng turned his head, looked up at the Immortal Mountain, and saw subtle sword-shaped light rays leaping in his eyes. These light rays, if magnified hundreds of times, would reveal their sword shape.

This was the daily practice of Chixiao Sword Skill: visualizing the sword, merging the heart with the sword, intending the sword, and combining the heart with the sword.

“Chi Xiao Mountain is indeed the foundation of my Sword Sect, and there is no problem with that.”

“However, the path of my Sword Sect is to be inclusive, accommodating all sword intentions and all sword skills. Inviting swordsmen to leave Sword Marks is more beneficial than harmful to our sect.

“The sword intent in the world is endless. There are ones as fierce as fire, ones as heavy as Earth, ones as light as wind, ones as gentle as water, ones as swift as lightning, ones as dark as night, and ones as cold as snakes, all of which are sword intents.”

“For foreign swordsmen, they only learn one technique and one move, while our Sword Mountain has already had countless sword intents over the long years, and even have the ability to comprehend on our own.” “The gains and losses in this should not be measured in a short period.” At this point, a proud sword intent slowly radiated and rose from Ding Jiansheng’s body.

His pride was his sword intent and his life.

Unconsciously, the two had walked a long mountain path together and truly arrived at Sword Mountain.

Han Yi’s gaze moved from Ding Jiansheng to the Sword Mountain ahead.

There was nothing special in his sight.

This was an Immortal Peak that was even smaller in size than the Little Lingxu Peak where Han Yi had once stayed.

Wild grass, miscellaneous flowers, ancient trees, strange stones, straw huts, where nothing appeared to be unusual.

There was only one straw hut at the edge of Chi Xiao Mountain. It looked quite ordinary.

“That’s where the Supreme Elder of our Sword Sect resides.” Ding Jiansheng s sword intent receded, pointing to the grass hut and then to other places: “Apart from that hut, you can go anywhere and stimulate your sword skills to condense a Sword Mark.”

Han Yi nodded.

This was his first time on Chi Xiao Mountain, and it was very likely the only time.

He was not eager, but circled around the Sword Mountain like an ordinary person, walking without using any magic skills to probe, so as not to cause any adverse reactions..
