Sword Lotus

"The Ice Snow Kingdom"

To be able to enter the realm of 'Dao Attainment' in the Age of Dharma Decline, one must be an exceptionally talented individual. As someone who has been through it, Long Qingyun knows firsthand just how difficult it is.

As the former Lord of Great Li, his talent was beyond doubt; in the Dali world at that time, his talent was unparalleled.

Furthermore, with the support of the Great Li Imperial Family, he barely managed to step into the 'Dao Master Realm' stage two hundred years ago during the Age of Dharma Decline, and there was no possibility of him advancing any further.

As for the current Sword Sect Master, in terms of foundation, the Sword Sect is only a sect with a short history of three hundred years, and its foundation is simply incomparable to that of the Great Li Imperial Family.

The Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth rises to its peak and then declines, only to rise again, in an endless cycle. The closer one gets to Heaven and Earth Cataclysm, the more decayed the primordial chaos of Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth becomes, and the greater the difficulty in comprehending the laws of heaven and earth.

The fact that the Sword Sect Master was able to reach the 'Dao Attainment' stage in just two months before the Heaven and Earth Cataclysm demonstrates his undeniable strength.

Although he spoke dismissively, he was extremely vigilant and immediately unleashed his strongest attack.

The Frozen Kingdom is a divine Divine Ability that the ancestral Long Zhan of the Dali Kingdom comprehended when he became God of Heaven and Earth. Among the hundreds of thousands of minor Divine Ability, this Divine Ability can be considered powerful.

A thousand years ago, Long Zhan used this Divine Ability to defeat countless God of Heaven and Earth.

At the Peak of Humanity, one can comprehend God of Heaven and Earth Divine Ability that only gods and immortals can grasp, which is enough to make one a prodigy, and this is common knowledge throughout the entire Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth.

Even with his extraordinary talent, he was still unable to make further progress in the Age of Dharma Decline two hundred years ago, which shows how difficult it was to cultivate in the Age of Dharma Decline.

Long Qingyun roared, his aura surging, and with a palm strike, eight towering ice pillars descended from the sky, trapping the Sword Sect Master within them.

Immediately afterwards, heavy snow began to fall above the area sealed by the ice pillars. The snowflakes were as light and delicate as drifting catkins, yet they exuded a terrifying aura.

The snowflakes grew more numerous and their force increasingly powerful.

The Sword Sect Master strolled leisurely through the Frozen Kingdom, wisps of Sword Qi appearing in his eyes as he savored the Divine Ability before him.

After fully comprehending the profound mysteries within the Divine Ability, he flicked his sword robe, and the eight enormous ice pillars that stood like pillars supporting the sky instantly shattered. This exquisite Divine Ability was broken by the Sword Sect Master with a mere wave of his hand.

The Sword Sect Master Leader remained calm, a hint of regret on his face. "This Divine Ability is indeed exquisite, but unfortunately you have only grasped its form, not its spirit, and have not comprehended its essence."

"Otherwise, the power of this Divine Ability would be several times stronger."

Long Qingyun's face was full of astonishment. He never expected that the Dali's national-protecting divine technique would be so easily broken by the person in front of him.

If that were all, he wouldn't be so horrified.

Although this Divine Ability was powerful, he had only just begun to explore it. Moreover, the Sword Sect Master in front of him was a 'Dao Attainment' being, a whole minor realm higher than him.

He never imagined that Divine Ability from the Ice Snow Kingdom could trap and kill this 'Dao Attainment' being, nor did he ever imagine that he could defeat the Sword Sect Master before him with his own strength.

His actions were merely an attempt to test the strength of the Sword Sect Master, but he hadn't expected to find anything out.

However, the Divine Ability Sword Sect Master's Ice Snow Kingdom ability could be easily broken using ordinary methods, indicating that his strength far exceeded his expectations.

The other Four Imperial Ancestors of the Great Li Imperial Family were also shocked by the skill displayed by the Sword Sect Master. Their eyes were filled with solemnity. They exchanged glances, and their auras surged as they attacked the Sword Sect Master.

All five are Peak of Humanity. Any one of them would be virtually unmatched in the entire Dali, especially Ting, the Second Ancestor the Great Li Imperial Family, who has also stepped into the 'Dao Attainment' realm.

Although the era in which the Second Imperial Ancestor of the Great Li Imperial Family lived was not as severe as the Heaven and Earth Shackles, the difficulty of entering the 'Dao Attainment' stage was much lower than that of the Sword Sect Master.

But 'Dao Attainment' is 'Dao Attainment' after all; it is already a top existence in the secular dynasty. The aura of the Second Imperial Ancestor alone overshadowed the other four.

The five attacked together, their aura shaking the heavens and earth, terrifying beyond measure. They unleashed their killing moves, determined to kill the Sword Sect Master right there.

The Sword Sect Master sighed softly, a hint of compassion in his eyes. His body radiated a dazzling Sword-Ray, and a Sword Lotus slowly appeared above his head.

Within the Sword Lotus, Sword Qi descended, enveloping the Sword Sect Master and forming a Protective Sword Aura.

Long Qingyun and the others unleashed their killing moves one after another, but when they struck the Protective Sword Aura, they vanished as if they had been thrown into the sea.

"This is Sword Lotus! You actually managed to comprehend the Sword Lotus?"

The Thirteenth Elder were filled with shock. When they saw the Sword Sect Master unleash the Sword Lotus, they stood frozen in place like wooden stakes for a long time before gradually coming to their senses.

Legend has it that only those with great wisdom and a deep affinity for Sword Dao can comprehend the Sword Lotus from the very Sword Dao.

Legend has it that the Sword Ancestor founded the Sword Dao, and his body was covered with Three Thousand Sword Lotuses. Once the Three Thousand Sword Lotuses appeared, all the laws of the world could not get close to him.

The Sword Lotus not only possesses astonishing defensive power, making swordsmen invincible from the start, but it also purifies the mind and refines the Divine Soul. Its effects are no less than those of the Bodhi Seed, a Buddhism treasure, and it greatly aids in the cultivation of the Great Dao.

Throughout history, those who have comprehended the Sword Lotus have all left behind brilliant achievements in the way of the Sword Dao. Could it be that the Sword Sect Master before us is such a person?

Impossible, absolutely impossible. The Sword Lotus requires an extremely deep understanding of the Way of the Sword Dao to even have a slight chance of being comprehended.

He never denied the talent of the Sword Sect Master before him. To be able to step into the 'Dao Attainment' stage in the Age of Dharma Decline was definitely a testament to his unparalleled talent.

Over the past few days, he has gained some understanding of the Sword Sect.

But as far as he knew, the Sword Sect was only a sect that had been established for three hundred years, and its foundation was not deep. The strongest person it had ever produced was the Sword Sect Ancestor.

However, the Sword Sect Ancestor was merely Peak of Humanity. What powerful Sword Dao inheritance could a sect founded by such a figure possess?

Without a deep understanding of Sword Dao, one cannot comprehend the Sword Lotus.

Those Sword Dao masters recorded in ancient history who were able to comprehend the Sword Lotus were already extremely powerful in their Sword Dao cultivation before they comprehended Sword Lotus; they were at least Gods beings.

Such a person has already reached an extremely profound level of mastery in Sword Dao.

However, the Sword Sect Master before them had already comprehended the Sword Lotus during his 'Dao Attainment' process, which was completely different from what was recorded in the Ancient Texts.

Could this Sword Sect Master be the reincarnation of Sword Dao master?

The Thirteenth Elder looked at the Sword Sect Master before them with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
