Lin Tian spoke calmly.

You like swords?

"That's great!"

"The Sword Dao is also a way; practicing only the sword can also be considered cultivation."

"Fellow Daoist, you can continue to deepen your understanding of the sword; you will surely achieve the Great Dao of the Sword!"

After hearing what Lin Tian said...

Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos exchanged glances, both seeing a look of surprise in each other's eyes!

Sure enough, the senior was about to begin instructing the master.

What surprised them was: why would their master consult Senior Lin Tian?

Does Master intend to advance further in the realm of Sage?

If we continue to advance, wouldn't we be able to catch up with the Dao Ancestor?!

Thinking about this...

They were immediately startled and dared not think any further.

Just as they were thinking this...

Tongtian, who was standing to the side, also trembled upon hearing Lin Tian's words.

Cultivating the Sword Dao?

He had considered whether he could take his Sword Dao to the next level.

But ever since he obtained the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, he felt that he had reached his limit in the Sword Dao.

At first, I thought it was a bottleneck.

But the further we went, the more we realized that it wasn't the bottleneck.

Instead, it's a dead end.

It was like his final step in the art of Sword Dao.

That's the best we can do!

Taking another step forward seems to be touching the edge of Sword Dao!

If he were to relinquish his saintly position and focus solely on Sword Dao, given his current state of mind...

It's difficult to break through one's own limitations.

But now, thanks to Lin Tian's reminder...

While Tongtian was excited, he was also somewhat confused.

The real answer has not been found.

'Since my own Sword Dao has reached its end, why does Fellow Daoist Lin Heavenly Dao instruct me on how to cultivate the Sword Dao?'

'Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lin Heavenly Dao's understanding of Sword Dao is completely different from my Sword Dao?'

'Perhaps he has some understanding of the Sword Dao?'

That's what I was thinking.

Tongtian quickly asked.

"I enjoy this Sword Dao, but I've encountered a bottleneck... There's an obstacle in my mindset... I don't know how to improve."

"I wonder if you could offer me some guidance, so that I may advance further in my Sword Dao..."

Upon hearing Tongtian's question...

Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos were both taken aback.

Their eyes suddenly trembled.

A look of shock flashed deep in his eyes!

Among sword-wielding cultivators, Master has already reached the pinnacle.

No guidance from others is required at all.

Unexpectedly, I'll actually need to consult Senior Lin Tian...

This...

That's really hard to answer.

Senior Lin Tian is indeed very strong.

But I don't know if I can answer the question about the understanding of swords...

Could you please give me some guidance, Master?!

Just as they expected.

Lin Tian felt somewhat embarrassed after hearing the other party's question.

What is your understanding of swordsmanship?

I don't know how to use a sword.

What kind of understanding is this?

Never mind, I can't answer this one. Let's move on to the next one.

After a brief moment of thought, Lin Tian decided to refuse to respond.

But just then...

The system's voice suddenly came from beside Lin Tian's ear.

[Host, what is there that you can't answer?]

[You read so many poems about Sword Dao in your past life. Although those poems don't have much magical power, their artistic conception is profound, which is perfect for the enlightenment of the Primordial World natives. You can just write one for him.]

[Anyway, the opponent's strength is mediocre; whether he can figure it out or not depends on himself.]

Hearing the system's words.

Lin Tian was immediately taken aback.

'A poem about Sword Dao?'

What poems are about Sword Dao? I've never heard of them before.

[Host, was your nine years of compulsory education a waste?]

Lin Tian couldn't help but retort, "When was that? I've long forgotten. If you were talking about high school, I could still speak eloquently, but now, I'm lucky if I can even recognize characters!"

System:"..."

Lin Tian ignored what the system thought and casually replied, "Since you made this suggestion, just tell me a few poems, and I'll write them for him!"

The system responded immediately.

[The system does not have the corresponding permissions, but it can provide them if the host is willing to sacrifice one opportunity to write a diary. The host should consider this carefully...]

Before the system could finish speaking, Lin Tian interrupted it, responding in a cheerful tone.

'No problem, finally I can take a day off.'

System:"..."

[Host, isn't writing in your diary supposed to earn you rewards? Why don't you want to write in your diary? Have you become this lazy?]

Lin Heavenly Dao: 'I still have one lottery prize I haven't used. Why don't I just skip writing in the diary and go straight to the lottery?'

"Besides, don't you have any self-awareness about what kind of rubbish you give me as rewards every time?"

Stop talking nonsense and hurry up.

Hearing Lin Tian's urging...

The system was speechless.

The host is so lazy, and as a system, it truly bears an undeniable responsibility.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have activated the "lie down and relax" task.

So now you don't even want to write a diary anymore?

[Alright, please wait a moment, host. The system is currently filtering through poems about Sword Dao to find the one that best suits your style.]

[Searching, search successful, adapting]

[Already entered the host's mental consciousness]

[Please check your message promptly, host.]

Upon hearing the system's response, Lin Tian was immediately taken aback.

From his own spiritual sea of consciousness, he suddenly discovered a mysterious and profound poem.

'Isn't this a poem describing the art of Sword Dao?'

'Wait, system, did you change the words?'

[To complement the host's Expert Demeanor, I should compose a poem suitable for the other party, thus preserving the host's dignified image!]

Upon hearing this...

Lin Tian couldn't help but nod to himself.

The system is very well thought out.

Although he couldn't discern any particular characteristics from the poem.

But it is estimated that those who cultivate swordsmanship can gain some insights from it.

After all, the poem provided by the system is profound in its imagery and expresses an incredibly powerful and domineering spirit. Different readers will likely have different interpretations.

In this way, the other party's question can be considered answered.

Lin Tian kept this thought to himself, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Tongtian- legged opposite him, was extremely anxious.

After he finished asking his question...

Lin Tian then fell silent.

He sat there quietly, without responding.

Tongtian also began to feel less confident.

'Was I too abrupt? Is Fellow Daoist Lin Heavenly Dao unwilling to respond?'

'Or perhaps my Sword Dao has reached its peak, and I can no longer make any progress? Fellow Daoist Lin Heavenly Dao, are you unable to offer me guidance?'

Or is it that they simply don't want to help?

In just a short moment.

Countless thoughts flashed through Tongtian's mind, and the more he thought about it, the worse it seemed. He even considered giving up.

This reclusive master is incredibly mysterious; one must not offend him because of a momentary question.

Standing behind them, Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiaos Immortals of Wen Zhong all wore solemn expressions.

They didn't know either.

Ultimately, it seems the senior couldn't answer this question.

Or is it that the senior is unwilling to answer?

Just as they were thinking this...

Lin Tian's words startled them all.

"Alright then, fellow Daoist, let's not beat around the bush. I don't know much about Sword Dao either, so I won't offer any guidance."

Upon hearing this...

Zhao Gongming, Wen Zhong, the Three Xiaos, and the others were all taken aback.

They hadn't expected Senior Lin Tian to give that answer.

Even Tongtian looked at Lin Tian with some surprise.

A sense of disappointment flashed through my mind.

'Alas, as expected, Fellow Daoist Lin Heavenly Dao has no intention of helping me...'

'It seems that I still need to rely on myself first regarding switching to Sword Dao...'

Tongtian was thinking this to himself, and was just about to say something.

Lin Tian's voice came from the side.

"But."

"Here I have a poem that reflects my understanding of Sword Dao and my state of mind."

I'll write it down and give it to you.

Hearing Lin Tian's words.

Tongtian's eyes widened in surprise, his dejected mood vanishing instantly. He asked in astonishment.

"Poems about Sword Dao?"

Lin Tian nodded slightly and said.

"Yes, this poem may not be considered Taishang -level, but it should be sufficient for cultivators of your level."

If any other living being were to hear Lin Tian's words at this moment...

They'll definitely think Lin Tian is exaggerating!

Ke Tongtian, Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiaos, and Wen Zhong all thought it was perfectly normal.

After all, Senior Lin Tian's strength and realm are far superior to theirs!

They were already incredibly shocked by just a glimpse of Senior Lin Tian's strength!

How could they possibly question Lin Tian's words?

That's what they were thinking.

Lin Tian's voice came quietly from the side.

"Please wait a moment, I will write it down with pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

Um?

Brush, ink, paper, and inkstone?

What is that?

Upon hearing Lin Tian's words, Tongtian, the Three Xiaos, Zhao Gongming, Wen Zhong were all taken aback.

A look of surprise flashed in each of their eyes.

Once again, I was completely bewildered by the strange and unusual words that Senior Lin Tian used.

They've only heard of pens and ink, but not paper or inkstones?

Just as they were filled with doubt and surprise...

Lin Tian waved his hand casually.

An inexplicable pulling force emerged from his palm.

The writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone that Lin Tian had placed in the storage room were summoned by this power.

The writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone placed in the wooden box emitted a mysterious aura that slowly drifted out.

Under the astonished gazes of Tongtian and the others.

It landed lightly on the stone platform in front of everyone.

"These are the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone?"

Tongtian stared in astonishment at the writing implements before him, his gaze hardening.

From it, Tongtian sensed an incredibly powerful and terrifying force!

An incredibly rich spiritual energy emanated from it.

It even stirred up the surrounding laws of nature!

The terrifying power immediately startled Tongtian.

"That momentum..."

"This is extraordinary!"

Tongtian's heart trembled. It was precisely because of his Sage status that his divine sense and perception were extraordinary, incredibly sharp and powerful.

After he sensed the powerful aura emanating from the Four Treasures of the Study...

He couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Divine consciousness is the subconscious release of consciousness.

He then wanted to investigate the details of the Four Treasures of the Study!

But then, in the next moment...

An anomaly has occurred.

Click!

Before his divine sense could even get close, it was directly repelled by the terrifying power emanating from the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone!

The force generated when it was repelled was far more exaggerated than that of the Great Wall's divine stone!!

The Great Wall model was at least not capable of crushing his divine consciousness!

The writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone placed on the wooden board didn't even give him time to react before shattering his divine sense!

That terrifying power, that unparalleled defensive capability, was clearly the Power of Chaos!

'These four seemingly ordinary things... are Chaos Supreme Treasure?!?'

Thinking of this, Tongtian couldn't help but gasp, his eyes trembling with shock!
