Chapter 813: Caged Up Thoughts
Editor: Atlas Studios
A hardworking man would never be able to go far without talent.
A talented person would also never get to the peak without hard work.
However, when a person was both talented and hardworking and possessed the determination to temper it thousands of times when dealing with something, this person’s Dao would grow better.
Cultivation was not a fairy tale.
One could not continue on this thorny path if one was missing one of two.
From these dense, complicated, and deep shallow sword marks,
Ye Qiubai could tell that this Senior Sword God had put in hard work on the path of the Sword Dao that ordinary people couldn’t compare to.
That was why he could step into the realm of Sword God.
Ye Qiubai’s sword kept waving in his mind along with the man practicing his sword techniques at the stone pillar.
His comprehension of the Sword Dao was getting deeper and deeper as he swung his sword faster and faster.
The man slowly turned from a young man to a middle-aged man as time passed.
The sword in his hand became heavier and heavier!
On the fourth day, the sun rose from the sea level of the Endless Sea Region and shone warmly on everyone’s bodies.
Ye Qiubai’s realm actually broke through at this moment!
He had reached the half-step Earth Immortal Realm!
The immortal sword intent in the sword in his hand subconsciously surrounded Ye Qiubai.
The sword slashed horizontally and pierced through.
The Sword Intent would also shoot out in all directions!
It was also at this moment
that the sword mark on the stone pillar seemed to have a trace of spiritual qi in front of Ye Qiubai.
Among them, were wisps of Sword Intent. As Ye Qiubai waved the sword in his hand, they condensed into a figure beside him!
Its movements and strength were surprisingly the same as Ye Qiubai’s!
Lai Qingyun and Ceng Jiyuan were attracted by this scene.
They also understood that Ye Qiubai had already comprehended the profundity of the stone pillar.
They couldn’t help but look at each other helplessly.
Lai Qingyun smiled bitterly and lamented, “The youngsters nowadays are really each more monstrous than the last.”
Ceng Jiyuan’s already cold and heartless expression twitched at this moment, and an extremely ugly smile appeared on his face.
“However, I have no choice but to accept it. From another perspective, it might not be unacceptable for such a sword cultivator to appear in the Middle Latitude Realm.”
“Perhaps he can drive the Sword Dao of the entire Middle Latitude Realm.”
Lai Qingyun smiled and nodded. “Not bad.”
Seeing this, Zi Shan couldn’t help but smile. “This person will definitely have achievements in the path of the Sword Dao.”
Shi Sheng said proudly, “Of course. I’ve never seen anyone stronger than Big Senior Brother in terms of talent and hard work in the Sword Dao.”
Zi Shan smiled at Shi Sheng: “You really admire him.”
However, Shi Sheng replied with an unusually serious expression, “Those who work hard are always worthy of respect and learning.”
Hearing this, Zi Shan couldn’t help but take another look at Shi Sheng, then smiled. “You’re right.”
In this world where talent was king, to be able to put so much emphasis on hard work, similarly, there were fewer and fewer people who could be as pure as Shi Sheng.
When others worked hard, those with bad morals would mock the other party for working so hard and the reason for working so hard was probably because they were not talented?
Usually, in front of others, those who worked hard wanted to make up for their lack of talent.
People with good character would only praise him insincerely and not take it to heart.
However, Shi Sheng took this matter very seriously.
This also showed that he was different from the others.
This was normal since Shi Sheng was born into an ordinary mortal family after all.
He cultivated just so that his parents would not be forced by hunger and cold and be bullied by others.
It was just to extend their lifespan when his realm was high enough.
They could even live forever.
This had always been Shi Sheng’s dream.
It had not changed since the beginning.
Therefore, it was extremely difficult for him to step onto the path of seeking the Dao.
He tried his best to make up for the lack of talent and family background.
He did not dare to slack off at all even if he became Lu Changsheng’s disciple.
Therefore, he emphasized more with the act of working hard.
As the Sword Intent surged, the sword intent on the stone pillar seemed to be subtly changing Ye Qiubai’s sword intent.
Even though he had not broken through to the Sword Dao realm, the onlookers could clearly feel it.
Ye Qiubai’s sword intent became heavier.
Similarly, it became sharper.
At this moment, Ye Qiubai stopped practicing his sword and opened his eyes.
He bowed slightly to the stone pillar with a serious expression.
At this moment, the figure condensed from the Sword Intent in the sword marks beside him on the stone pillar also disappeared, turning into wisps of Sword Intent that fused into the illusory sword.
The illusory sword seemed to have become more solid in the center of the four stone pillars.
A voice came from the sword.
“Ye Qiubai, you’ve passed the first test.”
As soon as Hong Ying finished speaking, Ceng Jiyuan and Lai Qingyun quickly walked to Ye Qiubai’s side.
He asked, “What’s so mysterious about this stone pillar?”
Seeing the urgency in their eyes,
Ye Qiubai couldn’t help but smile and say, “Seniors, you’re too eager for quick success.”
Ceng Jiyuan asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”
“These sword marks were left behind by Senior Sword God from the moment he stepped into the Sword Dao and constantly practiced his sword techniques.”
“I’m not asking you to comprehend the sword intent in the sword mark,” Ye Qiubai replied with a smile. “Senior Sword God left behind his journey to step into the Sword Dao on the stone pillar.”
After Ceng Jiyuan and Lai Qingyun heard this, they could not help but be stunned.
Then, they cupped their fists at Ye Qiubai.
“I’ve learned something.”
After the two Sword Immortals stepped into the Immortal Sword Realm, he could not find a way to break through to a higher realm of the Sword Dao.
Gradually, he forgot the original intention of the Sword Dao.
Instead, he wanted to seek some kind of heavenly treasure or the inheritance of a mighty sword cultivator.
This was to seek an opportunity to break through.
Perhaps that was right but it was wrong for the essence of the Sword Dao.
The path of the Sword Dao could be aided by external factors.
However, he still had to continue on his own at the end of the day.
When the idea of seeking a breakthrough with external objects was deeply rooted,
Ceng Jiyuan and Lai Qingyun, who were already talented sword cultivators, were trapped in the cage of their thoughts.
This was also the reason why they were unable to discover the mysteries hidden on the stone pillars for a long time.
And Ye Qiubai’s words also made them understand this principle.
The sealed Sword Heart was opened.
Lai Qingyun and Ceng Jiyuan looked at Ye Qiubai gratefully and said, “The two of us owe you a favor.”
“If anything happens in the future, we will definitely repay you.”
Hearing this, Ye Qiubai immediately said in surprise, “Are you serious?”
Ceng Jiyuan and Lai Qingyun were stunned.
This appearance… Why did it feel a little cheap…
Mu Fusheng also covered his face. “Why do I feel that Big Senior Brother’s character is becoming more and more like Master’s…”
