As the terrifying Dao Severing Holy Light Sword slashed down from mid-air, it was still uncertain whether the old Daoist had been killed, but Yang Zhen was truly startled.
Although he didn't know exactly what the Dao Severing Holy Light was all about, Yang Zhen could sense that it could Dao Severing Holy Light more than just the Dao itself.
This terrifying sword strike, in particular, is far more terrifying than Heavenly Tribulation tribulation.
The violent energy of heaven and earth crashed directly into the Dao Body, unleashing a world-destroying power. The old Daoist priest was cleaved from mid-air by this sword. He staggered in mid-air, spitting out several bowls of blood before he regained his balance. He roared and unleashed a violent power of his own. He then sat cross-legged in mid-air and began to rest.
Yang Zhen was astonished and turned to ask the Azure Luan Saintess beside him, "This old Daoist... what did you cut down?"
"The three emotions and four desires!" A look of shock flashed in the eyes of the Azure Luan Saintess as she murmured to herself, "I never expected this senior to be so decisive, cutting them off so thoroughly."
Upon hearing the words of the Azure Luan Saintess, the people nearby gasped in surprise and began to discuss among themselves.
"My God, severing all emotions and desires in one fell swoop, senior is truly ruthless."
"After severing the three emotions and four desires, one will no longer be affected by Heart Demon and can break through to the Saint Realm in peace."
Some were shocked, some were envious, but most were filled with admiration and surprise.
Yang Zhen looked on in bewilderment. Good heavens, he had severed all three emotions and four desires in one go! We have no idea what emotions or desires this old Daoist had severed. The old Daoist hasn't recovered yet, so it's not appropriate to ask at this time.
Seeing that the old Daoist priest had begun to recover, many more Saint Realm experts rushed forward, standing in mid-air amidst the Dao Severing Holy Light Technique, pondering what they should slay.
Finally, even the cultivators at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm rushed forward, leaving Yang Zhen completely bewildered. He turned and asked, "What are the Celestial Phenomenon Realm cultivators doing up there? Are they also going to sever their own Dao?"
Seeing the expression on Yang Zhen's face, Azure Luan Saintess chuckled and said, "It seems Fellow Daoist Tieniu Niu doesn't quite understand the Dao Severing Holy Light the Dao. The Dao Severing Holy Light doesn't mean completely Dao Severing, but rather cutting off the shackles of the Great Dao. In this way, one can focus more on seeking the Dao and reaching the pinnacle of cultivation."
Yang Zhen suddenly realized that he had found the whole thing rather bizarre. Countless cultivators had painstakingly pursued the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, finally achieving enlightenment and cultivating their own Dao Rhyme and Dao Intent. Yet now, upon seeing the Dao Severing Holy Light, they had all been severed with a single snap. What was the point of all this?
It turns out he was severing his own ties, which makes sense now.
There are countless great paths in the world, and even more minor ones. Among them, there are bound to be things that are not suitable for you. If you can cut them off, it might actually be a good thing.
However, Yang Zhen still had some doubts. Should these things be eliminated? Would there be any side effects?
Is the severed Dao still the complete Dao?
Yang Zhen's confusion deepened, causing the Azure Luan Saintess to give a strange look, and she whispered, "Fellow Daoist Tieniu Niu, be careful!"
The voice came telepathically, like a bolt from the blue, striking Yang Zhen completely, leaving him utterly stunned. He looked at the Azure Luan Saintess with a strange expression.
The Azure Luan Saintess did not look at Yang Zhen, but instead focused her gaze on the sky filled with the holy light of Dao Severing Holy Light and the countless cultivators. She slowly spoke, "Some things, don't be too attached to them, otherwise, you'll develop Heart Demon."
Yang Zhen suddenly realized that the Azure Luan Saintess had spoken up to warn him because she was afraid he would develop Heart Demon.
She is still a kind-hearted young girl.
Yang Zhen grinned and said, "Thank you, but I won't develop Heart Demon, at least not because of something like Dao Severing my Heart Demon."
Upon hearing this, the Azure Luan Saintess smiled noncommittally and did not continue speaking.
However, Yang Zhen could tell that the Azure Luan Saintess thought he was bragging!
Qi Yunling, standing beside Yang Zhen, chuckled and looked at him teasingly, saying, "You're really confident, aren't you? In this world, who can be sure they won't develop Heart Demon? Heart Demon are born from obsessions. Don't you have any obsessions?"
"Obsession?" Yang Zhen was taken aback, then nodded and said, "Perhaps, but not here."
"Where is it?" Qi Yunling looked at Yang Zhen with a hint of curiosity on her face, then realized that her question was a bit abrupt and smiled embarrassedly.
The Azure Luan Saintess, standing to the side, also glanced at Yang Zhen, looking quite curious.
Yang Zhen shook his head; even he himself was unaware of his own obsession.
Perhaps Yang Zhen's greatest obsession is having no obsessions.
Just then, a Celestial Phenomenon Realm wail suddenly came from mid-air. A cultivator at the Celestial Phenomenon stage fell from mid-air, bleeding from all seven orifices, his face full of horror. He fell to the ground with a thud, almost becoming the first Rust cultivator to fall to his death.
Qi Yunling curled her lip and said, "Trying to Dao Severing at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm is truly insatiable. Now your Dao heart is damaged; I wonder how long it will take to recover."
Yang Zhen was taken aback, then thought of the question from earlier and asked, "If those at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm can't Dao Severing, then what are these people doing up there?"
"Not being able to Dao Severing doesn't mean one can't achieve enlightenment. These Celestial Phenomenon Realm cultivators all want to ascend and achieve Dao Severing Holy Light, thus perfecting their Dao Heart. However, this is just a legend. Throughout history, only one person has successfully perfected their Dao Heart within the Dao Severing Holy Light. Hmm... perhaps Sister Azure Luan can too. As for the others, it's simply wishful thinking."
Perfecting the Dao Heart?
Yang Zhen was taken aback and looked at the Dao Severing Holy Light with surprise.
The Dao Severing Holy Light has this effect?
That's something worth trying, but why is it that throughout tens of thousands of years of history, only one person has been able to successfully perfect it?
"Who is this person?" Yang Zhen asked curiously.
A hint of doubt flashed across Qi Yunling's face as she asked in surprise, "Haven't you heard? That guy who angrily slashed through three hundred and sixty Heavenly Tribulation ultimately vanished from the world, and since then, there has been no more legend about him."
Yang Zhen skipped a beat. It was that guy again. It seemed that no matter whether it was the Great Wilderness Era or the Cultivation World, he could be heard everywhere.
He was merely a Saint Realm expert, yet he had more legends about him than those of the Great Emperor. Yang Zhen became increasingly interested in this guy who had angrily slain three hundred and sixty Heavenly Tribulation.
Seeing the High Antiquity Qi Yunling's face, Yang Zhen suddenly realized something and said, "I remember now!"
Now that he remembered, Yang Zhen truly understood the consequence of having to cover up one lie with a thousand more.
More and more cultivators at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm fell from mid-air, like rain, falling incessantly.
Yang Zhen found it interesting. Many cultivators came down, but even more came up. Fortune favors the bold, and this kind of thing makes sense in any time and space.
Just as Yang Zhen's face was flashing with curiosity, intending to watch the excitement, the Azure Luan Saintess suddenly took light, graceful steps and walked towards the Dao Severing Holy Light.
As soon as the Azure Luan Saintess moved, everyone else stopped and looked at Azure Luan Saintess in shock.
" The Azure Luan Saintess wishes to perfect her Dao Heart!"
Do you think the Azure Luan Saintess can succeed?
"If the Azure Luan Saintess cannot succeed, then who among us can succeed?"
As the crowd began to discuss the matter, another woman in red stepped forward, removing her hood.
This immediately caused a sensation.
"It's her! It's actually her! I never expected even she would come."
" The Black Lotus Saintess, the legendary mysterious woman of the Central Court who is said to be the only one comparable to the Azure Luan Saintess, has actually come. It seems she intends to compete with the Azure Luan Saintess."
