Sword Intent.
It is something ethereal and intangible, yet it truly exists under the rules of Heavenly Dao.
Without form, it is like having no vessel.
It possesses a sharp edge, yet it cannot harm its target.
Tangible but not intangible.
It is just like an ordinary longsword that has not been sharpened, and it cannot hurt anyone.
now.
The Sword Intent that Ye Qiubai sensed within the Starfall Sword Emperor statue was this tangible yet intangible thing.
This Sword Intent originates from the Power of the Stars.
Extremely heavy!
Yet it doesn't lose its sharpness.
However, without a vessel, it cannot unleash its true power.
The Sword Intent that the members of the Starfall Sword Sect sensed from it.
If one comprehends it, one needs to integrate it with one's original Sword Intent to unleash it.
Although it is usable.
However, he could never reach the level of the Starfall Sword Emperor.
Ye Qiubai pondered deeply, but could not figure out why it was so strange.
Sudden.
Ye Qiubai sensed an urgent desire to break free from his storage ring!
He was slightly taken aback.
I instinctively reached inside.
But then they discovered...
Among that pile of things.
There was a worn-out, rusty piece of iron emitting a white glow!
Within the halo of light, there was an incomparably profound Sword Intent!
The metal sheet floated up and crashed around.
I wish to break free from the constraints of the storage ring!
Ye Qiubai was startled.
Could it be that this piece of iron was summoned by the Starfall Sword Emperor statue?
No, to be precise, it was summoned by the Starfall Sword Intent within the statue!
To prevent the ring from being broken or destroyed.
Ye Qiubai released the storage ring.
The piece of iron appeared amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd.
The iron piece, radiating a halo imbued with the aura of Starfall Sword Intent, actually adhered directly to the stone sword in the hand of the Starfall Sword Emperor statue!
The stone sword has a chip on its blade.
Ever since the statue was erected here.
That's exactly right.
Some people believe it was done intentionally.
It is believed that the Starfall Sword Emperor's sword originally had a flaw.
Some people believe that it was deliberately damaged at the time!
Opinions vary.
However, no one paid any attention to it.
Now, everyone looked at this piece of iron, which perfectly fit the chip on the sword, and couldn't help but feel surprised and doubtful.
Lin Jie frowned and said, "Could this notch be from this piece of iron?"
The woman asked in surprise, "Then why does Ye Qiubai possess this?"
Even Zhang Yunzong's resolute and unchanging face showed a rare slight change!
His eyes seemed to be recalling something.
"Could it be... that the old man was telling the truth?"
And the next moment.
Everyone sensed it.
From within the statue of the Starfall Sword Emperor, an even more profound Sword Intent erupted!
This Sword Intent carried the weight of Power of the Stars.
And the sharpness of the sword!
The two are integrated!
It looks so real!
At this moment, the Sword Intent emanating from it was many times stronger than before!
Lin Jie was also quite surprised.
Further on, he had also sensed the Sword Intent inherited from the Starfall Sword Emperor statue.
However, the Sword Intent he comprehended...
This is completely different from the Sword Intent that Ye Qiubai has now comprehended!
The latter is more powerful.
Ye Qiubai was also somewhat stunned.
This piece of iron was given to me by a strange old man who said "Young man, please wait" when I was in Kunlun City.
Now, it perfectly fits the missing piece on the sword of the Starfall Sword Emperor statue.
So.
This old man must know something.
Or rather...
Does he have some kind of connection with the Starfall Sword Emperor?
Before Ye Qiubai could think further...
Ye Qiubai's soul seemed to be directly pulled into the statue!
The world within the statue.
There were no blue skies or white clouds.
Yes, there is only an endless starry sky.
The starry sky is dotted with countless stars.
Ye Qiubai looked up.
The entire sky was formed from Sword Intent!
It's as if every single star is a supreme sword!
At this moment.
A tall, middle-aged man, with his hands behind his back and a sword at his waist.
This sword is nine feet long.
Nine is the ultimate number.
The Sword Practitioner appears to have great ambitions.
At this moment.
The man looked at Ye Qiubai and said, "Activating and comprehending the Sword Intent left behind by this emperor is the first step."
In short.
Their identities were readily apparent.
"And the second step is to find this piece of iron."
"The first step is relying on talent and strength; the second step is relying on fate."
Ye Qiubai's expression was strange as he asked, "Fate? What if the iron piece was destroyed or lost?"
The man chuckled, took out his nine-foot-long sword, and handed it to Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai took it instinctively.
It is nine feet long, and you can feel the Power of the Stars within it!
The Power of the Stars is immense.
However, this sword felt as light as a feather!
The man continued, "This sword is called Starfall, and it is forged from Star Meteoric Iron."
"In this latitude, there is no one capable of shattering him."
"And this piece of iron was temporarily removed by the Starfall Sword Spirit."
Ye Qiubai suddenly realized and asked, "Then, what about fate?"
"Edge?"
The man asked, "Kid, do you believe in cause and effect?"
The Dao of Cause and Effect.
Lu Changsheng often mentioned it to him.
Ye Qiubai nodded.
"Fate is cause and effect. If no one obtains this piece of iron, naturally no one can inherit my legacy. If there is no fate, then there is no need to force it."
This statement is extremely mysterious.
but...
He is the Starfall Sword Emperor, and the legacy he established is his own.
Whatever he says, goes.
Just nod and say yes, and that's it.
The Starfall Sword Emperor laughed, "Since you possess the talent and strength to unlock the inheritance, and are destined to be with me, then this inheritance is yours."
Ye Qiubai asked doubtfully, "Senior, aren't you worried that I might do bad things after receiving your inheritance?"
Upon hearing this...
The Starfall Sword Emperor naturally replied, "Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, whether someone is a good person or a bad person, it's up to the world to judge."
"As Sword Practitioner, the most important thing is to forge ahead without hesitation and have a clear conscience. Therefore, your character and what you do after obtaining it are irrelevant to me. As long as you have a clear conscience, that's enough."
Undeterred and unstoppable.
I have a clear conscience.
Ye Qiubai smiled; this perfectly aligned with his foundation in Sword Dao.
"Alright, the inheritance lies within this starry sky. Enter it, and how much you gain depends on your Creation."
Ye Qiubai nodded.
Accepting the legacy.
Whether or not the Starfall Sword Emperor can perfectly inherit the legacy will be his final test.
He looked up at the starry sky formed from the Sword Intent.
Ye Qiubai was fearless, just as the Sword Emperor had said: Sword Practitioner should forge ahead without hesitation!
Fearless, Ye Qiubai soared straight into the starry sky!
on the other hand.
Heavenly Spirit Realm.
The entire region is now on full alert!
After the massacre.
The Boundless Dynasty has sent envoys and many powerful figures.
According to their explanation.
Hong Ying and the others realized the existence of the Extraterrestrial Evil Race.
This is an evil race that even the Boundless Realm would have to pay a huge price and gather the power of the entire domain to suppress!
Meanwhile, they learned from their master that they came from the Mid-Latitude Realm...
Despite the slight difference in name between them and those from the Low-Latitude Realm, their strength... is worlds apart...
